Lauding Irills.
San Fuancisco, July '27. The naval
battalion has made application to the
secretary of the navy for the use of the
cruiser Charleston for a week's cruise.
It is confidently expected that permis
sion will be granted, as this branch of
the National Guard of California is m
titled to a summer cruine for t he same
period that the infantry and artillery
enjoy the pleasure and instruction- of a:
week in camp. The Charleston is ex
pected here early in August, and with
the sanction of Secretary Tracy, she will
immediately prepare to entertain the
naval battalion for a week.
. Though the prospective cruise remains
as yet a matter of uncertainty., a pro
gramme for a week's doings has been
mapped out, in anticipation that an op
portunity will be afforded to carry it
out. Four companies will go into quar
ters on the Pensaeola, and" will enjoy a
daily cruise on the Charleston, either to
the Farallones or up and down the coast,
where an opportunity may be" had for
practice with the cruiser's big guns.
One. day will be devoted to landing
drills on the beach near the Presido, and
others to the various other drills and
marine maneuvers which can be crowded
into a week. In case the Charleston ia
secured for the week, she will be com
pelled to return the battalion each even
ing to the school ship on acconnt of a
lack of accommodations on the cruiser
for such a lavge force of men and officers,
which places the matter of a long cruise
out of the question.
" Drum in pet out of Camp.
Homestead, July 27. The effect of
military, over civil -law, is attested in
the case of a soldier named lams. When
the news of the shooting of Frick reached
camp, lams shouted "three cheers for
the assassin." Col . Streeter heard it and
immediately . the regiment
paraded, j
Then he recited to the soldiers what he
had heard and ordered the man who
made the remark to step forward, saying
"he thought he had recognized the vojel
lams stepped to the front trembling like
an aspen. He acknowledged he had
made the remark and. was taken to the
guard-house and. hung up by the thumbs
thirty minutes, a surgeon watching his
pulse and heart. When cut down he
was limp and almost unconscious. The
severity of his punishment was due to
his failure to retract or apologize for the
expression. One side of his head was
shaved and his uniform taken from him.
He was then given a suit of cast-off i
clothing and drummed oat of camp. C.
C.'Burgoyne, the well known Mcw,"York
law printer, telegraphed . Col. Streeter,
declaring the treatment of lams, as told
in the dispatches, was a crime only par
alleled by the crimes of the mob. Bur
goyne adds that bis check for a good
round sum is at the disposal' of any
Pennsylvania lawyer who will -undertake
to bring Streeter to jnstice. He
adds that there are many men in New
York who are willing to' "loosen their
purse strings in order, that such monu
mental crime may not go unpunished."

present, whihvthe, necessity for an effi
cient force of-state soldiery- is sure to
increase every year. The militia in

it should be - always in a condition of
preparation that will make it a sure re

Another, or at least . a later account,
;"M.G.innou ami Paul Mohrr when thev
Wght the cargo of the wrecked -Aber-j
! corn, -1F Grays harbor, says they wilr
dear ifOO.OOC on .the transaction; We
r j quote from the Hoquiain Washihgtou-
1 ian : "The ship lies just outside of . the
! breakers, and a pier 1,750 feet 10112 has !
been built from the beach out to the
wreck. -Altogether 35 " men are at work.
These include four 'professional divers,
who are paid $1.0 a" day 'for. four, hours'
work,, and $4 a day when . not engaged.
Suits are also provided" for. them, at a
cost of !fS a day for each diver. f ' " "'
. "The wreck lies in 24 feet of water at
high.tide and twelve at low.. The higher,
the tide the better the divers can "work,
as the sea is. comparatively -still below,
the breakers rolling oyerjthe divers and
not - bothering them in their work.
Four rails make a . ton, and a ton is
raised at a time. , The divers adjust the
chains around the ends of the rails and
give the signal to hoist, and two engines
do the rest. Inuring .this fine weather
from 50 to 100 tons are lilted out daily.
TJie ship.carcied 2:"!00 and TC0 tons -have
already been taken onf.' It is expected
that the work will bo ended some time
in August, and possibly sooner.
"After the rails are taken but they
are hauled along the beach live miles.
They are then placed upon -a railway
built by the wreckers and carried a' mile
across the peninsula to a point 011 Gray's
"Harbor, where they can le loaded either
on the railroad or 011 a vessel and carried
to market. They are worth from $50 'to
$00 per. tun in Portland, and as they can
lie gotten there for $2 a ton, or less than
$5, from the wreck itself, it is seen that
Mr.' Canon has all - of '$100,000, and
between, that figure and the cost of the
undertaking will be profit. The profit
will le somewhere between $50,000 and
$60,000. The rails are not injured in the
least. They were covered with coal tar
before being . placed in the . vessel,
and when this is scruped off the red
sand of the blasfr- is found attached to
the steel. Mr Cannon went into the
enterprise after a number of professional
wreckers had pronounced it impracti
cable." . . . v
All accounts of this transaction, ex-'
cept what has appeared in The
Chronicle ; fail to state that the rails
are for the dalles - jiortage railway,
about which so much was said when
Senator Dolph was endeavoring to at
tach the boat railway project to the
river and harbor , bill. .
Oregon's- Seaport.
Astorian. The greatest harbor on the
Pacific coast is right here at Astoria,
where the. Columbia river enters the
Pacific ocean. At this place the Colurn-J
! trials seven miles
wide, affording, with
inlets, bays and estuaries, water frontage
of more 'than thirty" miles in' extent.
The depth of water ranges from thirty
to sixty feet at mean low tide, providing
excellent anchorage. jNo storms en
danger the safety of veseels in this har
bor, which is protected from southern
winds, which are the strongest, by lofty
hills. The bar referred to has disap
peared before the strong current created
by the government jetty, rendering, the
harbor of .istoria the: most easy of ac
cess on the whole -Pacific coast. It is
even easier" of access than Liverpool,
where the shipping of the world congre
