It was a rare -treat indeed: In consequence h the stormy weather prevailing during our trip to Pugct-souml, we reluctantly abandon ed our projected visit u Olympin via the narrow-gauge mil ay from Teni no, but we take pleasure in saying ihat what we saw of the road pleased us very much indeed. Trains make con nections every day both ways at Tennio and the comfortable little passenger coach, and neat little engine used in the make up, is a splendid substitute for the stage coach. The distance is about 15 miles of narrow gauge, and people living at Tacoma can by this route leave their homes in the morn- mg, 0 lO tlie capital, u-aiiancu mew business a.nl return t.he same day. People may also leave Olympia and return the ame (by from various iwrts of the couuiry by the same route. We were unable to gain any inrorma iion respecting the business of the road, but it appears io be managed on the score of economy, and is not only a benefit to its projectors and builders, but creditable to their en terprise and sagacity. special to tub astobun.

Astoria is not troubled in that manner, thank fortune. Our travel up the sound last Friday and over to Portland on Saturday, was made pleasant by the companion ship of Mr. H. S.

At Cape Flattery new doors were put in, and window casings, rotted by long use, replaced v-witli sound ma terials. At Dunginess a large shed was built and various other improve ments were made.
