Miss Mary Jew ett returned from Clatsop yesterday. The Melancthon went to sea Thursday evening. The ste;uner Sam made a .special trip up Youngs river yesterday. What s got into the weather? Colds and bore throats are juite pievalent at present. Tli- regular clasa nights of the Olympic gymnasium, are Tuesdays and Fridays. The steamer Oregon sailed from Astoria for San Francisco at one o'clock yesterday. in another column is offered a rare inducement fur French immigra tion by Sheriff Twonibly! See notice of land fur sale. Numerous dags were displayed from staffs throughout the oity yester day in honor of the inaugural of Pre sident Garfield. Capt. Brann, formerly master of the Tevenue hteamer Corwin, was a passenger to San Francisco by the outgoing steamer 3'esterday. Messrs. Suprenaut V Ferguson were awarded the contruct for Mr. J. Wni. Welch's buildmj near the Ore gon Railway and Navigation com pany's dock. The large amount of tin and other material, arriving by each steamer from San Francisco and by ships di rect, indicate that the fishing season of 1881 will be unusually lively. Regular communication of Tem ple Lodge No. 7, F. and A M., this evening at 7:30 o'clock. Sojourning brethern in good standing are specially invited to be present. Work in the P. C. degree. At Wm. Hume's cannery, Mr. F. Getchell with a force of twenty nine men ib making twenty thousand cans per day. This is the largest da3s work of this description that we have ever witnessed and is very creditable io the fereman. The steamship Columbia arrived off the bar yesterday morning at four o'clock and crossed m at six. Al though drawing only sixteen and one half feet she was compelled to remain in Bakers bay six hours on account of the shoalness of water in the river, delaying her arrival at the dock at Aetfria until one o'clock. We are informed that portions of the wreck of the Bteatner Clatsop Chief and the barfte which was in tow at the time of the disastrous collision, lie stranded above St. Helens. The name of the fourth unfortunate man has not yet been ascertained. None of the bodies, s far sb known, have jet been recovered. Capt. B. B. Tuttle, of tbe postal Tailway service, received a dispatch on Thursday, from Mr. WcKusic, the general agent in San Francisco, in re lation to sending the mails orerland. Mr. McKusic stated that he had com menced to send the mails overland Trom San Francisco and instructed Capt. Tuttle to send the mails from Portland by the same route. Seal fishing near cape Flattery is thus far recorded as a failure. The schooners return with very few, and report bad weather and strong north west winds. The Indians could, not be persuaded to take their canoes on account of 'wind' and cold. Seals, however, were very plentiful. - , f The Planetary Relations. Four planets are now congregated in the - western heavens at sunset, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn. The last named throe form a triangle, Saturn constituting the apex and Venus aud Jupiter the extremities of the base. Only a few days ago these three planets were in a line, Venus occupying a position nearest the Sun, Jupiter the central position and Saturn nearest the zenith. Jupiter and Venus hae since changed positions. The lattor. is pushing her course east ward, has passed to the ORot of the great belted planet, which is also hurrying westward. Jupiter, conse quently, nmv lios nearest the western horizon. Venus will appear stationary for sfvernl days before startiut; west ward, having completed half iter oourse a evening star. Saturn and Jupiter continue on their westward course tHwxrd conjunction with the solar orb. The tonnor will le in con junction with the Sun on thc21t of April; the -alter on the following day the 22d wf April. Mercury has also reached his greatest eastern elongation, and is now in the most favorable position for observation. He may be seen immediately after .sunset, a little above where the Sun disappear ed. It is easy enough to find him, as Saturn and Jupiter act as pointer. Draw an imaginary line through theje two planets, continue it toward the horizon, and it will intersect Mercury. Two niehts ago his relations with the planetary trinity mentioned above, was more interesting than it is at pres ent, rhese lour celestial bodies then formed a beautiful celestial cross, in clining against the western sky. Mercury marked the foot, Saturn the tiip and Venus and Jupiter the ex tremities of the arms. On a clear and cloudless night this planetary congre gation attracts universal attention. Venus is jueen of the gathering, owing to hor great brilliancy. This beautiful planet is so bright that she may be detected in the heax'ens during the day. Jupiter comes next, and the hours may be divided between Saturn and Mercury, whose bnlliancj' is about equal. One peculiar feature about thee planets is drawn out more strong y than usual now, owing to their nearness to one another that is. their difference in color, no two being alike. Xcxt to this quartette of planets, the matchless Sirius (not less brilliant now than the giant planet Jupiter), in the southeast, at sunset; the glittering belt of Orion in the south and the Great. Dipper in the northeast, claim the unscientific observer's attention. , A Thorn-y Joke. Love laughs at locksmiths, and it also defies sundry other things, and though it is sometimes delayed, it al ways proves triumphant. It was so with "Will Thuni, the well known mail agent, who has laid off this week tojjet married. On the uight before last he was on Iub way from East Port land to the home of hh intended bride in Portland when a large fir tree caught in the cable of the Stark street ferry thereby detaining him a full hour and a half. The height of aggravation was reached as he was on his way to be married at the hour when he was suspended, as it were, between the two cities. The speed he nude when once freed aud ashwre is not to be recorded because it was not timed, but it is supposedt hat he beat the fastest time of his mail steamer. The following item appeared in the Standard of Thursday: "On Mon day night the dwelling of I. Morris, at Salem, was entered by burglars and completely ransacked. Mr. Morns' pants, which were laying on a chair by the bedside, were taken into the front room and 05 and a post-office key taken from the pockets. From his vest they took a silver watch and a gold chain, and a meerchaum pipe. Mr. Sam Dangigler, brother-in-law f Mr. Morris, a resident 'of Astoria, was sleeping in an adjoining room, and from the jackets of his clothing the thieves took 3j, a bunch of keys, silk handkerchief and pocket knife. A gold watch and chain, valued at $175, in his vest pocket, was over looked. Xo clue to tin, thieves has been found." The gentleman from Astoria, who was robbed, was Mr. S. Danager, not Mr. Sam Dangigler, as the Standard has it. He has since re turned to Astoria and has received in formation from Salem that no clue to the robbery has been found. Marvel not that I say unto you, ye must pay the printer. Whosoever neglecteth to pay the printer, hath not eternal life abiding in him. Who hath sorrow, who hath woe,, who hath the nightmare! They who forget to render unto the printer his just dues. If a man Jive many years and payeth not foe The As-tohian, , behold he shall not die in peace till he hath re jttored tohe printer r that which he hath: withheld. ... Great Coal Fields of the North. 1'Bgol-MMMHl Corr. Chicago Times. Thc'coal mines of I'uget-sound are tHernost extensive and valuable of 1thoe""f any state in the Union, and it is only recently that a large traffic in that commodity has been created. All the various rivers running into Puget-.sound pass over immense coid fields of most excellent quality, bi tuminous and mithraeite. The largest of these fields is on the Skagit river, which is 'navigable for 100 miles from its Month, and only partially explored on either of its-shores. The next two largest cnl fields are on the Stilla guamich and Blnck rivers. These mines are only imperfectly worked, yet they afford a large revenue to thoir owner, whe have a line of ships to freight the iruduet of their three mines to San Fnneieco at all seasons ot the year, tside what is sola to foreign vessels of other nations. Here, then, is a vast wealth for which Wash ington territory never got credit; yet it is of greater value and duration than that f Pennsylvania and Ohio combined. Therei a man in Astoria so thin that he had a row of buttons put on his umbrella cover and wears it for an ulster. The state teacher's association will convene at Portland on the 12th of July, continuing in session for three davs. Some enterprising oitizens of Olympia are about forming a company to purchase an artesian boring ma chine, the object being to find whether they have suit, uil or coal in paying quantities. The Seattle Daily Post sa3s: "There ir no doubt the Indians are looming civilized. They are gradu ally leaving old customs aud super stitions and excepting the belief of the white men, o that by the time they become thoroughly civilized they will all be deiid. We often tee a return to the old cheerful customs of their fathers, as the following a short time ago at an Indian village mi the coast of Vancouver's island. A native w- man was seized with a low fever, aud while she was yet alive a constitution of Indian medicine men wis held aud it was decided to bury hor alive, the tribe thinking by that menus the spread of the fever might be prevent ed. So a box was prepared, the living woman forced into it aud buried. At the village of another tribe a medicine woman prescribed for a sick Indian who died, whereupon a 'son of the dead man shot the woman.' To L.et. Several furnished or unfurnished rooms at 3lrs. Munson's lodging house. Also, a few persons can have board if required, either ladies or genthnen. J.
