The Yaquina.
This new steamer crossed in over the bar
on the 28th, and, we' are informed, that
though only drawing 9 feet she touched in
coming in. However, like a wise man, in
stead of rushing to the conclusion, there's
only 8 feet on this bar, Mr. Hatch engaged
the services of Mr. Tracy Davis, and togeth
er they sounded along and soon found the
proper ranges, giving them 18 feet. It was
then nearly high water. Yesterday after
noon, the "Yaquina" crossed out with per
fect ease on a quarter tide and reported
over 12 feet on the bar. All well on board,
and delighted with ship, captain, and owner.
The above report is telegraphed from Ya

The total loss by the fire is supposed to be

as if it was dying. Tbey drove back into
town and called upon medical assistance but
it was too late to render any aid. The

Will Remove to Texas.
Benton Bowers formerly of this place,
and recently engaged east of the mountains
in the stock business, returned last Satur
day evening from a trip to Texas. H
went there with a view of selecting a local
ty suitable to justify him in transferring
his stock interest to that state where he
may be enabled to enjoy more extended
range for his stock to roam over. He suc
ceeded in finding a place to where he thinks
it will justify him in going. He has many
friends in and about Corvallis who will re
gret to learn of his removal so far away.
He declares, however, that there is no place
like web-foot and expresses his intention of
returning some day when business does not
require him elsewhere. He does not by
any means go to Texas from choice except
that it affords him an opportunity To ex
tend his herds.

Reed, were tound on Sunday, Aug. 20, in
the woods about 2 miles north-east of Can
by, in a state of partial decomposition, hav

the man was Reed as some have supposed,
he was at Oregon City in an intoxicated
condition only a few days ago.
A rare chance to make a good investment
was opened last week. The boys and girls
about town who earn money regularly can
have their earnings safely deposited by
buying a lot in the town of "Sellwood."
It only takes $10 to secure a lot, and then
it can be paid for at $10 per month. The
lots sell from $100 to $200 according to lo
cation. This suburb of Portland is most
beautifully located on the river, and with
the great strides Portland is making will
