Arrival of Shad.
The oar load of 'shad which loft Washing
ton last week for Portland arrived here in
charge of Mr Oed H 11 Mooro, the ftfTuble
gentleman who has visited n twice before

attnmnted with vouug shad. The car wa
1 v
ib-tained from Fridav evening until Sunday
afternoon bv the washout at the Gallatin
bridge, and about 40 per cent of the llsh
died. Except for thi unavoidable dolay,
ths In. s would have been small. Mr Moore
started with nearly ft million shad, so there
were plenty after hi arrival here. About
It ),000 of the fish were placed in the Snake
nver at Ainswort.i, ana tne remninner, num
herinir between I .1 i and U , wore
brought direct to Portland aud put luto the
Willamette at anavers incline, opposite
Ainsworth dock. None of the shad are
;nore than one-half to three-fonrths of an
inch long, snd judging by the experience io
Atlantio waters, they ought to attain full
growth-say 4 to 5 pound iu three years.
