Co.'b steamer City of Chostor sniled from Soaltlo at G o'clock tkis morning for San Francisco with a fair passenger lit nml tho following frciglit: From UtBalady, 12,497 sacks oats, 2 40 sacks potatoes; from Scattlo, 004 sacks of oats, 100 sacks wheat, 8 boxes apples, 5 boxes potatoes, 23 pack ages miscellaneous freight. Doad Chinaman, Tho steamer A. A. McCully brought a dead Chinaman to tho city last ovoning and turned him ovor to Coronor Cooke, who sat on him. Tho colestial gavo up tho ghost suddonly whilo coming to tho city, and tho coroner and his jury found a verdict that ho camo to his death from natural causes. It is a matter, however, -of little importanco to tho dead Mon golian. Navigation Stupondod. Last evoning tho Btcamor Dayton, which runs on tho routo between this city and various points on tho Cowlitz river, was compelled to return, boing un ablo to Btcam up tho Cowlitz river. Tho recent rains in that vicinity had 30 swollen tho tido that tho boat could not pass under Cowlitz bridge. A day or two of cool weather will causo that stream to run down and navigation bo resumed. In tho Boapttnl. Geo. V. Davis, who was badly wounded at a shooting match on Lowia river somo wcoks ago, has not been got ting on as Woll as ho ought to, and on Monday was brought to Vancouver and placed in St. Joseph's Hospital. It is hoped that with good caro and proper mirgical attendanco ho will soon rocovor. His wife will romain and holp tako cavo , ( Ul 111 11. I Whoat Sxunplo. Mr. D. D. Prottyman, of Pulk .county, has preparod nino diGoront sam ples of wheat in tho head, each of which ho has tied up and properly labeled, for transmission to tho East. Ho will send thorn by mail 10 a doaler in Philadelphia, who wroto for samples of wheat grown itt Orogon, in tho head, which he wished to obtain for tho purposo of having tho sanio photographed and engraved for uso in his advertising pamphlets and cir culars. A Bold Tutor. A fow evenings sinco nn East Port land lady namod Papo was returning homo from this nido, having a fow pack ages which sho had purchased, carrying in her arms. While passing along tho plank roadway a broad shouldered follow HtCppod up to her and nxkod to carry tho bundlos, which sho refuted. Without further parloying, ho soizod her bundles and started oft at a lively rato. Tho lady scroamed lustily, and tho appear tSM of Mveral crentlomea Mused tho tfclef to drop his auadlM tad mtko off At-&god ran. Araks I Archbishop Signers arrived in this olky on Tuesday sreniag frow Victoria, V. I., eaya tho Sentinel, nud left this morning" for Umatilla, where ho will oclcbruto mass on Sunday next, and ro main until after Christum?. On tho following Sunday His Grace will bo at Tho Dalles, whero ho will administer tho sacrament of continuation. Tho Archbishop desires to till theso appoint ments during tho present mild Reason, A3 ho fears navigation might close in January and thus defer his long expected visits until Into in the Spring. His Grace hopes to bo ablo to reach Astoria by tho first Sunday in January pro vided no unforeseen delay occurs during Lis present visit fresh Btrawticrrlos. Who says Oregon is not a great coun try ? Tho country papers, tho Astorian and several other publications, having within the last aix week boen blowing about having received half a dozen ripo strawberries or words to that effbot. It's our turn to blow a blast on tho bugle horn. This morning tho Italian gar denors near tho car shops on tho oast aide picked from the vines in tho open air betweon throo und four pounds of largo ripe lucious strawberries anil brought them into markot whero they received fancy prices for tho same. When we remember that Christmas is almost hero and snow lies on the ground it seems strange that strawberries should mature and ripen in the open air. Bids Opened. Proposals to furnish tios and tirabor to tho Oregon Railway and Navigation Co., as per their advertisement, were opeued yesterday at the O. S. N. Co. 'a office by Capt. J. C.

Kallroad Kxtonston. Tho work of track-laying on tho West ern Oregon extension is being pushed forward as rapidly as tho weather will permit. Tho track is now laid and con struction trains aro runnnig to tho j Lmckiamutc; and if tho weather is fav- orablo tho road will reach Corvallis within tho noxt twenty days. FUh Culture. During the past soason tho Clackamas Salmon Hatching establishment undor tho management of M'r. Hubbard, has been very successful. Over two and a half million eggs havo been htttohod and several schools of fry havo been turned into tho stream. In n few years our rivers will bo woll suppliod with this delicious fish should tho cannories run as lightly as during tho past season. Dying Cot. ' Tho haro and rabbit nuisance of tho Umpquu valloy is rapidly abating. A gontleman who is owner of two Gno Scottish stag hounds, and who has n great deal of sport in running hares down, says Ihoy aro rapidly dying off from diseaso of tho liver, and that in localities whero hundreds might bo found heretofore, thoro is scarcoly ono to bo seen now. Outlaws Snmndorod. Tho British Columbia outlaws who havo been committing murders and dep redations for somo tiino near Knmloops, havo at last weakened and surrendered themselves to the Indians who havo had them surrounded for somo time. They aro now on routo to prison whero they will bo put upon trial for tho fivo mur ders thoy havo committed aud various depredations. Tho scoundrols richly do--rvo hanging. Scntonoo Commuted. Gov. Thayer on Tuesday last, says tho Statesman, commutod tho sontonco of Henry G. Boll, a convict in tho Stoto ponitcntiary. to expire on that day, on recommendation of tho circuit judgo and district attorney boforo whom said Boll was convicted, and on potition of citi zens of Wurco county, including tho porson assaulted. Boll was convicted of assault with a dangerous woapon and Rcntoncod for a term of threo years from Nov. 21, 1870. Law Department, Wo learn that tho trustoes of the Wil lamotto University havo in contempla tion an ndvanco movomont in tho organ ization of a law department, to begin with tho next collogo year, also tho in troduction of incrcaod and vantages and accommodations for young ladios attend ing the school. It Booing to bo tho de termination of tho faculty, aa woll as th Wisnl of trtistooa. s saaka the Mhool what it shguld ba-a ''rnsitu- Won of Lsarninn." ApptlntmtatM, Govomor Thayer has recently ap pointed T. A, Wood, of Portland, no tary public, and P. A. Burnham, No. ISO Canal stroot, New York, commis sioner for Oregon. Tho Governor, in accordanco with tho request of tho Port land Board of Trade, has appointed William MacCann, of Liverpool, Eng land, honorary commissioner of tho Board of Immigration of Oregon, to ro side in that city. Splrltnalistlo. At a spiritualistic seanco in this city a few evenings sinco a broad-shouldered skeptio struck an ombodiod spirit on tho noso, and tho result was an outflow of roal blood; so it appears that material ization involves tho life fluid, and per haps all tho norvos and tissues, just as if tho spirit had come to stay, Another result was tho life-liko remark made by tho spirit : "Ouch 1 Put out thorn light;" and likewise tho striking suggestion : "Perhaps you think becautu I'm a spirit it doesn't hurt, but it does." Fbyeiolon's Eoport. Tho report of the Physician of Oro gon Insano Asylum for tho quarter end ing Novembor 30, 1879, shows tho fol lowing admissions, discharges and deaths in that institution for tho past three months : Inmates received males 26, females 10 ; total 30. Discharged males 13, females 4; total 17. Died males 7, females 2 ; total 9. Numbor of inmates on hand Decombcr 1, 1879 majos 192, females 74. Amount paid Dr. nawthorno for caro and treatment of patients for tho quarter, $10,872 01. lis s)t m The Umatilla Mills. Our correspondent in writing from Umatilla, giving a description of enter prises and the surrounding country, was in error regarding tho famous Umatilla Mills. Ho stated that they wore undor tho direct management of Mowrs. Hurd i Weed, the lessees, which is an error. Tho mills are under tho management of Mrs. Frances Meyers, tho proprietress, and tho gentlemen above spoken of aro employed by hor to superintend the bus iness. Sho has no idea of leasing the mills, as wo learn from iter, and that it is her intention to conduct them in the future as in tho past, according to her best judgment. Thoy are tho finest mills in Eastern Oregon, tho brand "Umatilla Snowllake" boing a favorite in this and tho San Francisco market. Every modern improvement has been added, until it is now as complete as any on tho coast.
