We regret to announce in this issuo the intended departure from this city of Mr. Owen. Wade. Mr. Wade was appointed Itegister of tho land office for this distriet of Oregon by Abraham Lincoln in IstH, nearly thirteen years ago. Since tlip.t time he has made his homo among us, ami many friends, lie is a modest and retiring "man, and though never conspicuously prominent in public movements, lie has never been be hind in measure for the proin-ition of tho general good. As a public ollicial he has always leen courteous to those having business with him, and strictly honorable in all his dealings. Even the Portland Standard, which seldom stieaks well of Republican apjwintees.was honest enough to speak of Mr. Wade's otlicial life in tho highesfterins. Mr. Wade resigned tho Register ship ho had so long and honora bly filled 011 account of failing health ami a growing desiro to see "tho old folks at home," in Ohio. He will take his two children with him, and nrobably visit friends in dirlerent lOastern States.esiKJcial ly Washington City. He is undecided whether he will return, but we feel confi dent that one who has so many fnends hero cannot stay away from theiu forever. City Council.

Since the change in the mail route in this county, wc have received complaints from a largo number of our subscribers that tho paiier reaches them alxMit once in three weeks, and very often it is carried by tho ixistollices. Until within the past six months we never had any cause tor complaint, and Postal Agent Steele will do well to look atter the mail going out from Clackamas Station through the county. Telegraphic News. Castcrii. New Chileans, Jan. 3. Tho clearing house passed a resolution unqualifiedly and emphatically deprecating and pro testing against the passage of t he I "lam silver bill or any other law authorizing tlie coinage of silver except as subwidi ary silver without lcgl tender vah:e, or if so, for a very small amount. They iienounco as uutruo tho assertion in some northern papers that the south favors romouetization. They regard gold as ti:o recognized standard ot value of the world, und consider a binictalli standard dangerous and impracticable. which would restrict our foreign trade and work doincsiiu injury. They de dure tiie refunding of the national deb a much more uonorabio met nod ot re ducing public burdens than debasing the standard, and urge that we are now glad to believo that at no distant day gold will bo at par and nothing should be done to blast that expectation, cer tainly not in the way of a demonetized financial experiment. Washington, Jan. S. President Hayes lias definitely determined to make the Chinese question tho subject of a special message to Congress. In this message he will call attention to the present and prospective evils of unlimited Chines. immigration to this country and will recommend Congress to tako such ac tion as in its wisdom it may deem most proper and effective to restrict and reg ulate tho immigration of Mongolians. The President has not yei decided whether ho will suggest any particular manner for tho attainment of these ob jects, but at present it seems probable that he will confine himself to the forcible presentation of the necessity for action and leave to tho two houses of Congress the task of devisiug a proper remedy. It is also quite probable that ho will direct the stato department to notify tho Chiuoso government through the usual diplomatic channels that ecruo action on its part to restrict tho immi gration of its subjects to this country is likewise, considered desirable, but nothing positive in regard to making such an invitation has yet been deter mined. The Presidont expects to have the message ready for transmission to Congress soon after it3 reassembling. Foreign. Pakis, Jan. 4. A Berlin correspond ent says-he has trustworthy information of an agreement on the subject that a ratification of the reichstag and federal council has been arrived at between Bisniarek and Von Benningcon for the formation of a liberal parliamentary ministry. A Vienna special says England has iufcrnietl the government of St. Peters burg that she has no objection in prin cidle to the conclusion of an armistice in the mode proposed by Kussia. But as regards tho terms of peace, no new European programme must be drawn up without the sanction of her majesty's governmeLt. St. PETEB-snrriO, Jan. 8. The Journal de St. Petersburg says that llnssia, after her immense sacrifices, demands the right to discuss the conditions of peace with her enemy alone, ltussia, how ever, recognizes the right of Europe to moke known its appreciation of the peace conditions settled between the belligereuts. It is, nevertheless, im portant not to admit any pretensions which might mislead the vanquished concerning their position and public opinion concerning relations between the powers.

The Indians, as a mass, are dissatisfied with the way things uow stand, and aro opposed to removing to auy reserve. I have been able to talk with many, and they all, with few exceptions, are snlky and in disposed to say much.

A Washington dispatch of tho 2nd gives the following summary of tho ap propriations for this coast: Dalayed estimates approved by heads of executive departments, which have been tabulated by the secretary of the treasury and printed in book form, in clude tho following for expenditure on the Pacific coast: Improvement of Oak- aud harbor, s200,0Ul); Wilmington har bor, $50,000; Sacramento and Feather rivers, $20,000; Lower Willamette and Columbia rivers, from Portland to tlie sea, $1M ,000; Upper Willametto, $50,- 000; Upper Columbia and Snake rivers, SGfJ.OOO; Canal at Cascades of the Co lumbia river, 50.000; for fortifications at Fort Point, $100,000; Limo Point, 680,000; Alcatraz, 50,000; San Diego, 50,000; Mouth of Columbia, $30,000; Mare Island navy yard (general repairs to buildings and ground), $75,000. No specific estimates are made for work at this or auy other navy yard, but the department asks for certain lump sums to be distributed by its various bureaus among tho yards throughout the coun try as occasiou may arrse. A similar remark applies to estimates this year for tho survey of public lands. Tho interior departments propose to make allotments in its own discretion, just as was done last year by authority of Congress. The estimate for clerk hire in the Caliiornia surveyor general's office is $20,000. The department earn -estly urges this and similarly increased amounts for Nevada, Oregon and Pacific coast territories as indispensable to bring up arrears of business. Estimates for salaries of all federal oflicers and their salaried employes on the Pacific coast aro in exact accordance with the, amount appropriated for the current fiscal year. S. M. Wait and J.N.Day have bought the Daytou woolen mill. They intend to run it to its fullest eaiaeity next spring. Olympia Transcrijtt: Five of tha larg est sawmill companies have proposed to tho other four smaller ones to buy them oil from running for the next year, paying them ten per cent, of tho busi ness which they would do. One tf them has accepted tho proposal, provided they allow it to cut tho logs the com pany has on hand, or purchase tliom at cost prico. If this rumor is true, it will probably affect tho logging business, which is now looking np, and Iriug it to a stand still. We also leurn that an inventory of tho logs on the sound, made a few weeks ago, placed the s.mouut of surplus logs at '2.',GOO,000 feet.
