The barkentine Melancthon, from this port, arrived at San Francisco on Friday. The schooner Argonaut arrived at San Francisco from Shoalwater bay on Friday. The British ship Oberou, from this port, arrived at Liverpool on the 8th inst. i The British bark Countess of Rothes cleared from Gibraltar for this 7ort on the 23d of February. Mr. Geo. "W. Hume's lumber yard will be extended over the spot vacated by Mr. C. K. Page's building. Mr. A. Mclvenzie, the ship builder, is making rapid progress in the construction of 11. B. Parker's new steamboat. Messrs. Trenchard & Fairfowl re ceived a dozen head of dairy cows and a lot of calves by the Bonita yester day, for their Lewis and Clurk dairy ranch. Several cords of railroad ties, picked up opposite the wharves dur ing the recent high water, are now bein;: cut tip for fire wood by China men. Mechanics in Astoria need not be idle, especially carpenters; the sup ply is not equal to the demand. Call on W. B. Headington for proof of the trath of this item. A few cases of the influeuza, so prevalent with the horses throught the interior, have appeared in Astoria. We are glad, however, that the ani mals affected are recovering. The usual service will be held in the Young Men's Christian association hall at a quarter to three o'clock this afternoon. Song service from Moody and Sankey's hymns Everybody cordially invited to attend. Mr. Theodore Broeraser is the lessee of Page's building. The second story will be used in connection with the Walla-walla restaurant for lodging rooms. We understand the first floor will be used for business purposes. The old residence buildiBg which has stood for so many years on Astor street, next to Bain & Co's, is now being torn away to make room for the new building which Messrs. Bain & Co. intend erecting in connection with their present works. A burning flue at the restaurant f ThoB. McFarland, at a late hour Friday night, would doubtless have led to a destructive conflagration had not rain and hail interfered. For over a half hour the burning sparks escaped from the flue in quantities sufficient to ignite adjacent buildings were they not covered with hail and rain. Fairfowl and Trenchard's natty little yacht, the John Nation, presents a very different appearance since Surprenant and Ferguson commenced work on her. The alterations they have effected improve the appearance of the vessel and will certainly render her more safe during rough weather in these waters. The alterations and re pairs will be completed in a few dayp. A new telegraph company was formed in Astoria yesterday. The line is to- run from the Oregon Rail way and Navigation companys dock to the Western Union office at the Occident hotel. The projectors of this new enterprise are Messrs. Noyes, Newell, Martin and Rogers. Messrs. Newell and Martin are the operators, Mr. Noyes superintendent, and Eben Rogers general manager. Astoria Improvements It will doubtless interest our readers to know that besides the extensive addition now in course of construc tion to the Occident hotel by Messrs. Megler and Wright, the handsome stores recently erected by Mr. John Hobsou, and many other improve ments under way in this city, plans and designs are now being drawn by Mr. A. W. Ferguson, the well known architect and builder, for n family resi dence for one of our enterprising ! citizens, which in beauty of architec tural design and extensive proportions will far surpass any private residence that has ever been erected in this city. We were ghwl to hear this, but still more pleMd w hen Mr. Fernson in formed us that as soon as his present task is completed he has been iiisturct ed to hold himself in readiness u desigti another residence, xvhicli will, though perhaps not s large, exceed in cost and ornamentation the one he is now engaged upon. We are not at liberty at present to mention names, but our citizens can rest assured that Astoria is coming up to the front. The Young Misses Sociable. The sociable given by the young Misses of the Presbyterian church at the Young Men's Christian association rooms on Friday evening was a decided success. At an early hour the rooms were crowded with a happy throng of young and old all evidently bent on thoroughly enjoying themselves. Not were they disappointed. The pro gramme for the evening was splendid ly arranged by the girls who had charge of the evenings entertainment. The musical and litorary exorcists commenced with an instrumental per formance by Messrs. Mackintosh and Richardson, followed by a beautiful combined song and recitation, "The Rock of Ages," by Miss Minnie Sher man: a solo by Miss Esther LI olden; reading by 3Iiss Frankie Corwin; -ocal duet, Miss H olden aud Mr. Mackintosh; recitation by Miss Emma 11 olden; song, sola, by Mr. Mackintosh, and closed with a reading by Mr. F. D. Wiuton. 3Iiss Nellie Flavcl pre sided at the organ with her usual taste and ability. The ice cream, cake aud coffee were delicious, and last, but not least, twenty dollars were netted by the girls over and above all ex penses, which was donated to the Presbyterian church. King "Calico," of the Sandwich islands, is a "man of color." Pomeroy boasts of a child less than eight montliB old that talks. Michigan has produced a pig with a trunk. ThiB thing must be checked. Love, me, love my dog. Canines are in danger. The dog-fancier is around to yank poor Tray to the dog pound. If you love you dog, deposit two and a half with Dement aud get your license from Richard or poor Sport will be apt to go the "demnition bow-wows." Our citizens have a rich literary treat before them in the announced lecture of the Rev. B. S. McLafferty at the Congregational church on Tuesday evening. We hope his audi ence will betBufn'ciently large to show that real literary ability is duly ap preciated by Astorians. The employes f The Astokiju office all join us in acknowledgment of the kind remembrance by the young Misses wha so successfully carried out the sociable given by them at the Young Men's Christian Association rooms on Friday evening last. May you all live long and give many such saciables is the wish of the printers. We are glad to knuw that another local enterprise is on foot in this city. Messrs. James & Lupton, formerly of San Francisco, are engaged in fitting up an establishment for the manufac ture of soda water and all kinds of syrups. A portion of their stock and plant was shipped on the bark Rival and is expected to arrive shortly. Their soda and syrup factory is located in the building adjoining the Parker house. Messrs. James & Luptn have our best wishes for their success. Presbyterian services at the Con gregational church, this morning at eleven o'clock. Sabbath school at 12:15. In the evening at seven o'clock anniversary service of the Astoria Young Men's Christian association, consisting of report of president, and an address by Rev. J. V. Milligan. Singing from Moody and Sankeys combined gospel hymns. The public are cordially invited to any and all of these Meetings.

Iuri f-Vtnratioii. j In something written we have an indistinct recollection of having made reference to a general disposition among boys in their teens, as well as boys f maturer years, to enlighten and bless the world with their pni fotind knowledge of the horse and his history. Our books and newspapers are full of this kind of literature, and it varies in style from the production of the child at school, commencing with: The horse hns four legs and a tail; up to the eloquent tribute of the scholar when he quotes from Jeb: That his neck is clothed with thunder and the glory of his nostrils is terrible. He smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains and the shouting. Between these two ex tremes of the child at his first school composition, and the professional literature, we have every grade of pre tention, and each professing to have mastered the whole subject. As we approach the close of this nineteenth century, we begin to look for some thing better in this department of knowledge from those win assume to instruct." And it is to be found in Kendalls Treatise on the horse, sent by mail to any person for twenty-five cents, postage puid. Apply to The Astokiax office, or address D. O. Ire land, Astoria. Oregon.

Greeusburg, Pa., January 20th, 1SS0. James I. Fellows. Dear Sir: Aliovv me to inform you that I have used Fellows' Syrup of Hypopusphites during the last four or five years in cases of Consumption, and other Lung and Throat diseases, with the most gratifying results. D. A. Artf.b, si. d. Fresh smelt at Warren & Eatons. Fresh leaf lard at Warren and Eaton's. What is the cry from ocean to ocean? Kendall's Spavin Cure. Read the advertisement. Fresh vegetables, parsley, greenB, eta, for table use, fresh from the gardens, can be had cheaply at Mrs. Gallou's, Squemoqhe street. Mr. John Rogers, of the Central Market, has made arrangements to keep all the finest fresh fish, etc, in their season. . For the best Beer in Astoria, call for the Columbia Urevcery Beer, acknowledged to be superior to all others. The Astokiax job presses will fit you out with your winter supplies of letter-heads, bill-heads, cards, envelopes, etc., etc., at astonishingly low rates, and in exquisite style. Call and see samples of work done for others. By a recent postal decision men can actually make money by getting their bills and statements of accounts printed. Statements of accounts and bills of sale when made out on paper having printed headings, can be sent by mail for one cent, if the envelope ib left unsealed; whereas, if it is made out on unprinted paper, it will cost three cents. Thus by patronizing The Astoejak two cents can be saved on every bill or statement that is sent out through the mail. SnSome say that it is no use for them to advertise, that they have been in the place in business all their lives, and everybody kuows them. Such people seem to forget to take in consideration that our country is increasing in popu lation nearly 40 per cent every ten years, and no matter how old the place may be, there are constant changes taking place ; some move to other parts, and strangers fill their places. In Uiis age of the world, unless the name of a business firm is kept constantly before the public, some new firm may start up, and. by liberal advertising, in a very short time take the place of the older ones, and the latter rust out, as it were, and be forgot ten. No man ever lost money by judi cious advertising. rVhat pleasure it is to pay ones debts ! In the first place, it removes that uneasiness which a person feels from dependence and obligation. It affords pleasure to the creditor, and therefore gratifies our social affection. It pro motes that future confidence which is so interesting to an honest mind. It opens a prospect of being readily supplied with what you wanton future occasions. It leaves a consciousness of our virtue; and it is a measure we know to be right, both in point of justice and sound econ omy. Final Iyt it is the main support of c!iple reputation. Pay us, that we may pay others. Syphon Study Lainp. Hon. I. W. Case, of Astoria, in placing the new Syphon study lamp on the market, would call the atten tintion of the trade to some of its merits. Its illuminating qualities are not equalled by any study lamp in use.
