s -ge v- HJ Jp 35X3 &Sto& TUESDAY 3Iat 16, 1870. Drifts and low Heads 1876. Upper Astoria, Clatsop county, Oregon. April 24, 1S7U. J At a Special meeting of the Colum bia River Fishennens Beneficial Aid Society, the following regulations for the government of all concerned were adopted. That the following drifts and tow heads be established for the fishing season of 1S7G. First Drift. From Woody Island to Brown's point. Second Drift. From Brown's Point inside of Snag Island to the 12th red buoy. Third Drift. From the loth buoy to Tongue Toint. Fourth Drift. From Tongue Point to a point a little -west of Booth's Canner3r, at a place to be designated by a spile or some permanent mark. Fifth Drift. From the termina tion of the 4th drift to Smith's Point. Sixth Drift. From Smith's Point to the Pacific Ocean. . Seventh Drift. From the red buoy in the Prairie channel to Tongue Point up or down. Eighth Drift. The big snag in Chinook shoot will be considered a tow head. The fishermen in Astoria, in coun cil have mutually agreed to bind themselves to be governed by the foregoing drifts, and it is expected from boats outside of the Society that they will also conform to the same. Any fisherman who is not fortunate enough to be a member of this Society has still another opportunity to join this Society, by applying before the 10th day of May, 1S76, in accordance with the notice published elsewhere in the Astokian. After which time the initiation fees will be raised to twenty-five dollars. i5y order of the .Society, THOMAS IJKALKY, Sec. Special Noticf. AVe shall not, cannot, in future, answer letter? of inquiry written to us by parties desirous of settling in Oregon, un less such letters of inquiry contain at lo;it the amount of stamps necessary to pay postage on the return letter. For 25 cents wo will for ward four copies of Tin: Asiokian, of separ ate dates, to any address in the United States, postage paid. Advertise An exchange says: Maybe you think that people don't like to read advertisements! If you do you are much .mistaken. Fresh, well-put well-placed ad vertisements ai e news ! They aro welcomed, read nay, studied ! The newspaper that is alive with them is increasingly acceptable and so is the business house that knows how to get them up, possessed withal with the sagacity and nerve to keep them up. Postage on the "Weekly Astorian is two cents a paper to any part of the United States, when sent by peo ple not connected with the newspaper ofiice. We will will send four copies (separate dates), equivalent to one month, to one address, in one wraprjer (post-paid), on receipt of 25 cents. TakkYouk Local Paper. A man in Marion county last week saved $130 by taking his local paper, the Mercury, and there is a man in this county, near Urownsville, who told us, a short time ago, that he had niado anfcO-acre tract of land by being a reader of the JJcnio crat. 11 e had been wanting for a long time to buy an 60, adjoining his farm, but could get no track of the owner, who wsus a non-resident of the State, and finally saw it advertised for tax sale in the democrat. JIc attended the i?alo and bought it for a nominal sum, and is now the owner of it Albany Democrat. J5ST Births, marriages and deaths will be inserted free of charge to sub scribers to either the Daily or the "Weekly Astouian. Births or marria ges, when sent in by persons who are not subscribers to the paper, should be accompanied with one dollar, which will be placed to the credit of the party and the paper will be sent to the address for the full amount so paid to us. "Warning to Delinquent Sukscrirers. A .Russian paper announces that a belief in the "approaching end of the world has seized on the Cossacks of the Don. Many, especially aged people, are giving up wordly affairs, wearing a shroud, and ordering their coGins. On every road aro men repairing to Moscow to bo consecrated priests, in order that the smallest village may have its own priest and church. Iho Russian paper fails to stato whether its delinquent subscribers have taken the scare and paid up. That to our mind would bo stronger evidence of the approach of the Millennium than any thing that a super stitious Cossack could advance.
