Extracts From an Interesting letter. That portion of Astoria that cUmbers over the sleep hills is quite as wonderful and much more beautiful than the pile supported section. Each householder can look, without difficulty, into his neighbor's chimney, for the resi dences cling to spurs and craggy places wherever they can find foot in"; such dizzy eyries are some of them that it would seem as if some ocean wind must inevitably blow them away. The custom house, a rigidly plain stone building, occu pies the only level space on the up per streets; solid and severely sim plicity, symbolical of the preten tions of the nation which owns it, is conspicuous in its architecture. One bright November morning we set out to climb to a distant bald knob from which we had been told that an extensivo view was to be obtained. Having a partiality for fine views, and being tourists, we felt it our duty to improve our present opportunity. We might have driven up, but we had some mercy on the horses; besides, after the manner of women, we preferred thts solid ground and our own feet to a carriage in such a brain-whirling place. It was up hill all the way. The plank walks were glazed with damp and furred with frost. Tiiey were alippery as toboggan slides and in many places unpro tected by railings. But a provi dent corporation had nailed cleats to the planks at regular spices and with the aid of alpenstocks, improvised from sticks, we man aged to make the ascent. After leaving the steep and stair-interrupted walk, which terminated at the base of the knob, wo found our selved obliged to follow a muddy path among dense dry fern that prevented our diverging to either side. Astoria is as original in the nature of its mud as in everything else. As slippery as oil, as fine as silt, it is as tenacious as cluy, and is altogether a subject Jci he long remembered. Up this muddy path we toiled, and presently, after threading a grove of young Doug lass firs, we came suddenly upon a broad grassy shelf, overhanging the city. Breathlessly we stnk among the dry, fragrant fern, hii-1. weary though we were, forg t u. aching muscles in cnntempla:- .; the panorama unrolled brfir- u-. Before us? It was beneath us; v.-i-were above it all, except suit- di-,-tant cone a dim white shape on the northern sky St. Helens of the Cascades. Under us was the strangely jumbled city with its canneries, warehouses and dorks pushing out over the river's edge The river? Was it merely a river? It was difficult to believe it. A river ten miles wide is no ordinary stream. The day was remarkably clear for this misty climate, but the irregular green line of the Coast Range looked smoky and indis tint. The bays and promontories of the further side could be dis tinguished easily, and the smoke of a sawmill made a dim bine blot on the black surface of the mountain wall. We could lookup the river for many miles; we could look down it to tin: ocean. Separate lines of dashing spray indicated the position of the inner and outer bar; beyond the latter two ships lay like white shadows, waiting. Crafts or all kinds skimmed the placid gray water, as alert and free as the sea gulls that filled the air with their flashing wings and discordant voices without fear of molestation, for they are jealously protected by the laws of the city. A sea-gull is as sacred a bird in Astoria as is the stork in Holland or the crow in the south. Tiny row boats, mere shells, speckled the river surface. Sailing craft glided along like great swans; one could see by their stately rise and fall how far from smoth the quiet water was. Huge ships, three-masters most of them, lay at the docks; some were so laden that the gunwales alcne showed; others lifted their hulls, variously painted, above the wa ter's edge. Flags oi divers na tions floated from the masts; in all cases the sails were lowered, leav ing bare the net-like tracery of ropes and spars. Steamboats of all sizes were visible, some com ing, some going, waving their plumes of smoke bravely in the freshening sea wind. All was life and motion on the water and on the terraces of the quaint city, but everywhere else upon the wooded hills and craggy mountains, in the dark canyons and along the lonelv valleys brooded a great stillness, the silence of an untrodden wil derness. There were no pleasant forest sounds; no bird songs and ripple of running water, but as the wind surged through the heavy boughs of the lofty firs and spruces, they sent forth a hoarse, deep mur mur that gave answer to the men acing roar of the ocean on the rocky coasts beyond the bar. Presently we noticed that the two ships at the river's mouth were separating, one moving from us toward the great dull blue ocean reaching away beyond the headlands to meet the sky, one drawing nearer, feeling her way anxiously and cautiously along the channels. One was outward, the other inward beund: one was leav ing the harbor, the other just mak ing it. We could have remained all day gazing on the wonderful pan orama of ocean, but there was a sharp sting in the wind's salt touch, and over the summit of Washington we saw a rain storm moving. It was time to descend and we went slowly down, with many a backward glance at the river which, "sired by the eternal hills and wedded to the sea," leads down measureless floods from the mighty inland ranges and types in itself the freedom, boundlessness and majesty of the great north west. Mary Leonard in Detroit Free Press. Can't JIake Anythinz Like It. I have been practicinf: medicine lor twenty years, and have never been able to nut up a vegetable compound that would, like Simmons Lher Iteguintor, promptly and effectively move the liver tci aciion and at the same time aid (in stead of weakening) the digestive and assimilative powers of the system. No other remedy within my know I edge cm fill its place. L..M. Histox.M. D Washington, Atk.
