The first concert given in this city by the Handel and Haydn society was given lust evening at Metropolitan hall. The hall was evenly filled; the audience delighted; and the concert one which ni characterized a grand suece&s. A gen tleman well versed in music, and a good musician himself by the way, on a visit here front San Francisco, re marked to us at the chG of cencert: ''Well, Ireland, I have lived in large cities, and I have traveled some! but n man can ever make me believe hereafter that the big cities contain all the smart men and women. That concert was as good as the same music which I have heard elsewhere, and far better than a great deal of what 1 have heard that was considered hiyh." We really hope the concert may be re peated soon. LaZco Chelan Post. si Stock sad Lowest Prises I To rviiich we call particular attention. IIRI. OUR FANCY GOODS AliE COMPLETE. were in April than May.

We opine the aver age crops be as large this year as ever, notwithstanding the back wardness of spring. In May, So, the spring was about as backward, there being only three or four pleasant days in the month; but people seem to have forgotten it. The old settler tell us, how ever, that in 18-io it rained all sum mer and harvest was omitted that year. It may be a little repetition of history, but we are inclined to believe that so little fanning was done at that early day that harvesting was unknown. "We have never known crops for the past twenty-eight years, whether the season was wet or dry, to fail if they were put in the ground at the proper season. The seasons are so different from other states and countries that they seem destined at times to ruin everything, but in the end the result is not very damaging, and we look for little damage now. uHTFuncral will take place to-day as 2 ; o'clock r. ai.. at C.raee iKpiseoiml) church.

Speaking of the proposed es tablishment of a military post at Lake Chelan, the Walla alia Union says the advocates of it know but little concerning the difficul ties to be surmounted in getting there, even on horseback, but much les the provisions of an army. Priest rapids is at the head of steam navigation, (it must be remembered that lake Chelan is on the west side of the Columbia river). There is no trail on that side that even an Indian can travel over during high water. The "Wenatchie, a large and turbulent river, has to be crossed near its junction with the Columbia. There is not a bushel of oats to be bad in the Chelan country, and how the soldiers and hordes are to be subsisted is a conundrum. Years ago, when the Similkameen mines were discovered, two cross ings of the Columbia were made in going thither; the first one at "White bluffs and the other near the mouth of the Okanagan. This route, we believe, was established by Gov. Palmer, over which goods were carted with oxen to supply the miners in Similkameen. The traders, Indians and whites, all cross the river above the Yen atchie and travel down the east side of the Columbia river to reach AYallula. Lake Chelan is in the mountains, and is walled in on both sides with perpendicular walls of basalt rock, and from the description we have had of it, the mountains come close to the Co lumbia on that side, and are cover ed with timber, while on the east side there is little or no timber. There is no travel along the Co lumbia from Priest rapids to lake Chelan. There are trails leadinir from Ivitlitass sixteen or eighteen miles west from the river to the mouth of the Wenntehie; at this point the timber sets in, and hicrh precipitous mountains come close to the riwr. There are mines on the tributaries of th Wenatchie, but the underbrush and timber is so thick that it is with diHiculty that supplies can be packed over the trails that lead up the river to the mines. The most of the packing is 1one from the Yakima side of the mountains. 'There is a good trail leading up CTi: GET IMPROVEMENT NOTICE.

The creditor said give me your daughter for the debt, and I will pay you her dowiy, deduct ing the amount of the debt. The farmer consented, and demanded 150 as the dowry. The creditor offered as payment an order on the Sheikh. The farmer refused to accept it. The creditor wab 'angry, and day after day insulted the larmer, entering his house and even insulting the harem; this so incensed the farmer that he shot the creditor.
