The Oregon left two hundred tons of her inward cargo at Astoria. The cargo of the Dolphin was pur chased of Mr. G. W. Hume in this city. Mr. Charles .Stevens is decorating his residence with a substantial portico. The .Stonewall .laekson is an almost new ship, fine model, and carrying ca pacity. Send that umbrella home marked Astokian, and oblige the owner. You know whose it is. There is a store in Oysterville where goods are sold, that has not been swept out in three years. The Oregon beat her own time down last trip, making it in 41 hours, now she comes up in 47 hours. One of II. B. Parker's single teams kicked up a dust in a runawny bust even ing, demolishing the buggy. No. l engine needs a new suction, and if the machine cannot be made to work then back it overboard. Coke, it is said, is what is wanted for that heater in No. 2. For the love of Juniper berries give 'cm coke. Dr. Plunder has taken the extra building and is making a splendid store corner of Ash and First streets. A barkentine, supposed to be the North Bend, was sighted outside yes terday. .She arrived at five o'clock. Portland could not do business now without the telephone.

I In consequence ot the Sunday reso lution closing the butcher shops, per sons who do not get their meat on Sat urday will have to lay over hungry un til Monday in Astoria, Messrs. Trenchard & Unsbur desire us to publicly tender their thanks to i i members of the fire department, audi ouima wiiii wurKcu so laiiniuiiy at the fire yesterday morning. w A few days ago Mr. L.A. Loomis made a center shot and killed a large black bear on his place in Pacific county. He was fat, and ielded a quant v of oil. The weight was .720 lbs. It was reported that the Chinaman so brutally assaulted by a monster on Saturday last had died, but the report was unfounded. The man who made the assault was arrested. The steam tender Kalata, Capt. 13. F. Stevens, took twenty-six of Badolle.t & Co.'s fishing boats in low Sunday tivening. This is two boats more than she has ever towed before at one time. Hon. I. W. Case of this city is one of the officers of the Grand lodge i. o. o.i, and expected to be in Albany last even ing to meet with the Order in his official pupacitv: also as a representative of Beaver lodge No. '5". The ship Stonewall Jackson comes to thi port with papers from Col. Mosby. Col. Mosby is vice consul at Hongkong, you see. We told this to u friend yes terday and he immediately kicked our dog. It is enough to make a man kick a dog, "not his own." ain't it? The ship Tabor, from Philadelphia for this port, recently reported as put ting in at Rio, was in collision with the French bark Genevieve, from Peru for Liverpool. The bark sank and the crew was saved by the Tabor, which landed them at Rio. The ship's damages were "lit, and she proceeded without repair ing. The contest between the Sun and Star base ball clubs at Fort Canby on i he. 18th was won by the Stars by two runs. The Suns made 15 and tho Stars 17. The time consumed in the play was 2K hours.

Trenchard and Upshur's store, Capt. FlavcTs old stand, on Chenanius street. ?Ir. Trenchard occupied a room in the Upper story, and he barely had time to save himself and a few books and clothing which he gathered in his arms has he made his hasty exit. On the way out he met a man at the door who inquired if he could be of an as sistance in saving anything, and Mr. Trenchard pointed him to a lot of powder, which stood near the door way and asked him to assist in remov ing that, as bad results might, follow from an explosion if the lire wjis not subdued; but it was of no use; tiic fire .rxrenrlmr a..

The firemen and volunteers work ed nobly and faithfully, and within fifteen minutes from the time water was obtained by the hand en gine, of No. 1, the Silsby-steamer of No. 2, and the fire-pump of Captain Flavel, in succession, the fire was under control. It seemed a long time, 3ret it was not so long actually, as it seemed, before a stream was ready to piny upon the building, in consequence of inattention to the heaters on the steamer and pump, or the lack of sufficient facilities; but when water was obtained it was put to good use. The large cannery ware house of Capt. Flavel, standing with in thirty feet of the burning pile, was on fire at one time in four different places, but whenever a stream came from the steamer, or the pump, the ' fire was instantly extinguished, and by four o'clock people could retire to their homes confident of eating their breakfasts in pace.

It was , , . tne nottest nre we nave ever witness ed. It was impossible to stand in the street, and the paint was so hot at one time on Capt. Flavcl's office build ing, that it would have ignited at the scratch of a match. The rough walls ('i the cannery warehouse -ere also badly scorched, and several persons had their hands and faces sorely blis tered, passing the fire in their work. The oil, tar, rope, powder, etc., ac count for the heat. Nearly 7otbs of powder, and 10.000 cartridges, besides a quantity of giant-powder M. E. Ciu-rch.

The first person to see the fire was Mr. Howe, night watchman at the Occident. He im mediately gave the alarm, but the fire got such headway before the alxrm was sounded by Officer Ginder, that k was impossible to save airything.

A pearl cross, made from a string of pearls , -J , I presented to . George Washington by Iapoleon, was among the property saved. The string of pearls became an heir- j loom in the iamiryoruie upsuurs, ami to our fellow citizen, C. P., the cross descended. It was in splendid con dition un phased by heat or smoke. The first engine on the ground was No. 2; the first water was from No. 1. The council should see to it at once that there is a fire patrol appointed. The Wonder and the Ordway was reauy to serve tne puuiic iui uieir j steam pumps if necessary..

Mr. G. W. Hume had steam up on his pumps, and Celestials readr with buckets, to protect that part of town. There are too mam' men in Astoria who "know it all" at a lire. We felt like continental! cussing some such but do not wish to waste our breath. Knnppton saw the blaze and Capt. Cousins came to the rescue with a sloop load of friends, followed by the Quickstep. It seemed like an hour to Mr. llowe, before a policeman put in an appear ance after he first sounded the alarm. But it was only a few moments pos sibly. We didn't hear the lire alarm bell; but "that dog of ours" made us hear him, and we went to the fire. Peg one for Quad. Coiinnrrci.nl Xcw.s.
