London, April 3. Tho chancellor of tho

of Commons to-night. Ho stated that last
year's ravenuo amounted to 83,117,000; ex
penditures, 80,407,000, Tho latter includes
a credit for tho Zulu war and other supple
mentary expenditures. Tho expenditure for
tho financial year ending March 30th, 1880,
Is estimated at 81,153,000 and the revenno
at 83,055,000. This estimated expenditure
does not include a further provision for the
Zulu war, nor tho payment of exchequer
bonds, but the chancellor hopes the surplus
may prove sufficient to meet tho Zulu ex
penses and to cancel 800,000 of exchequer
bonds, leaving 4,760,000 in bonds from
last year's vote for 5,000,000 credit to be
provided for.

nt the meeting announced to ho held at
Watson's hall last Saturday night.
Hon. A. G. Drown waa chosen chairman,
und J. M. Siglin, secretary. Sovcral
patties present wero culled upon nnd
mado short addrcsscx on tho subject of.
tho advantages of Capo Gregory nnd
Coos Bay as n location for tho proposed
harbor of refuge, nnd tho necessity of
taking steps to make theso ml vantages
known. Tho utmost harmony prevailed
throughout, und upwards of $100 was
raised on tho spot, without nny apparent
effort, to ho uecd in disseminating infor
mation of tho natural advantages of
Cajio Gregory for tho proposed improve
ment. And it also says:
"They havo discrvcred a oovo on tho
north side of Capo Foulwcathcr, at which
by expending from $GOO,000 to $700,000
a harbor of 100 acres can bo created,
and some of our exchange contend that
this should bo the future harbor of
refuge for tho Pacific Coast. If such a
harbor is all that is wanted for the pros
pective commerce of the coast, thero is
no need of expending money in con
structing a breakwater, for there is now
a natural harbor of 400 acres on tho
north side of Catio Gregory, in which a
vessel can find perfect shelter in danger
ous southerly gales. This harbor ol
rofugo in intended to bo something more '
than a moro cove, whero occasionally a
vessel might ontcr, should she chanco to
become disabled in tho immediate
vicinity."
Tho Astorian also questions tho judg
ment of the Hoard of Trado in recom
mending l'ort Orford as tho best point
and says :
"It is to Portland's interest, as much
as to tho interest of Astoria in fact, it
is to tho interest of all Oregon, that tho
harbor of rcfugo should bo at the mouth
of tho Columbia. Rut, should tho mouth
of tho Columbia not be considered a suit
able jilaco by tho Hoard of Entrinoen.
then wo should prefer Capo Foulwcathcr
where tho cost would bo tho least and
commcrco ho moro benefited than at any
other point, excepting at tho mouth of
this river which drains a larger section of
tillablo soil than any other river which
empties into tho Pacific ocean."
"Tho clauso making thin appropriation
iu tho river and harbor net wisoly pro
vides that 'the interest ot commcrco
shall bo taken into consideration.' "
"Tlio commcrco is to bo benefited by
this harbor of rcfugo : First, the coast
ing trade between Sun Francisco and
Pugct Sound. This Uado would bo ben
efited by a harbor of rofugo at or near
tho mouth of tho Columbia river moro
than any other part of tho coast. For,
as ih clearly shown by tho reports of tho
United State hignal officer, tho greater
part of tho storms which aro noticed
on tho Pacific Coast first approach tho
coast of Oregon and Washington Terri
tory nnd thcn;o proceed easterly ncrota
thu continent without btrikirig other
parts of tho coast, And again, theso
