il) S&c li&ila Qstovinn ASTORIA. OREGON: . C. IRELAXD JEklitor. ASTORIA Juxe 27, isrn. A Cincinnati manufacturer died nine 3Tears ago. His busi ness had been prosperous, and it was supposed that his estate was worth 50,000; but his widow could find only about 20,000, which she invested unfortunately, and finally lost. Lately she be came needy, and a son visited her to arrange for her removal to his home. In packing her effects he discovered 30,000 in good rail road bonds, in which his father had invested. The Walla Walla Union says there is great and useless commo tion among the people on the sub ject of railroad lands and with drawals. We assert, without fear of successful contradiction, that the withdrawal along the main line of the Northern Pacific rail- road company, from near the mouth of Snake river to Pen d'Orille lake, has not been changed, in the slightest degree, since Feb- .ruasy, 21st, 1S72, and then it goes on to prove what it asserts, estab lishing the fact. The Walla Walla Statesman believes that the determination of Jav Gould, who is the lead ing spirit of the Utah Northern, has compelled the Northern Paci fic to take immediate action to build its road through that por tion of its line which is most likety to come nearest the proposed line of the Utah Northern, in order to avail themselves of its lanye gov ernment land grant and for other purposes. This face has now be come a necessfty, hence the activity of the Northern Pacific. An eastern paper claims that A. N. Cole, the veteran editor of the Genesse valley Free Press, is the man who first called a conven tion to form the republican party, in 1854. This is an error. The original call was made by Geo. Fitch, of Kalamazoo, Michigan, then publisher of The Ashler; the first convention was held in the city or Jackson, Michigan, on that call, and Fitch furnished the name for the party, then and there. If there are any honors to be con ferred, they belong to Fitch. At all events, history should be cor rect about the matter. Strange mischances with fatal results are daily happening here and there. A Boston butcher ran against a knife that lav on a block, severed an artery, and bled to death. A Denver woman caught her foot in a railroad frog, and could not get loose before a train ran over her. A Vermont farmer sneezed with a straw in his mouth drew it into his lungs, and died choking. A horse kicked a Michi gan boy into a deep well, where he was drowned. The shoe flew off the foot of a kicking mule, in Nashville, and fractured the skull of a baby. An Ohio girl swallow ed her engagement ring, and lived only a week afterward. "While standing on his head, on the top of a high fence post, an Iowa boy lost his balance, fell into a tub of hot water, and was fatally scalded. A stone, thrown by a playfellow broke a glass from which a St Louis boy was drinking, driving some of the pieces down his throat, and he died a few days afterward in great agon1-. Looking up to "watch the flight of an arrow, a Nashville woman, did not see it descending directly over her head, . ajid' the sharp metal point pene trated her brain through one of Jier eyes, killing her instantly. An Important Xietter. Some days ago a letter bearing a foreign postmark made its appearance at the Washington Post-office, the address of which no one was able to translate. Somebody suggested it was in the Russian language. So it was taken to the Russian Legation, where an attache immediately inter peted the address, saying that it was intended for the Health Officer, to whom it was taken. It had the appearance of being a very important document, as it was got up in the most elaborate style. The Health Officer got one of the Secretaries of the Russian Legation to translate it for him, and it was discovered that the writer had invented an unfailing remedy for rheumatism, which he wished to sell to the United States Government. The letter was filed awav for reference. Dr. 31 In tic's Xi'plirctlriini A Compound Extract or ISiichu. Dr. Mintie's Xeplireticum works won troubles are entirely cured by the Ne phreticum.
