The British bark Viola, from Honolulu, arrived yesterday evening. Jack Frost made his farewell ap pearance on our streets yesterday morning. The steamship) State of California arrived down and departed for San Francisco yesterday. The laying of the foundation for the new addition to the Occident hotel was commenced yesterday. Sunday last was the first anniver sary of the organization of the Asto ria You ii" Mens Christian association. The pilot boat J. C.

St. Patricks day is near at hand and we hear of no preparations having been made for any celebration at Astoria. Mr. J. W. Hume, Mrs. Jos.

The Serica has had quick dispatch, having left Astoria fer Portland a week ago last Sunday, consuming five days in discharging bal ast and taking in her entire cargo The beautiful weather yesterday started the annual garden fever, and was a great incentive to exertion on the part of sundry young ladies. Their reputation as tasteful artists in the construction of button hole bo quets is well establishedand we trust they will remember our favorite colors. The lecture by the Rev. J. S. McLafferty this evening on Sir Walter Scott's great poem, The Lady of the Lake, will doubtless be a rich literary treat. Mr. McLafferty was for many years the popular pastor of the Baptist church in Oakland, California. He has the reputation of being one of the most eloquent speakers on this coast. We are informed that he has signified his intention to donate one-half ofthe proceeds of this lecture to the Astoria Youag Men's Christian aseociatien. Y. M. C. A. Anniversary. The first public anniversary service of the Astoria Ymng Men's Christian association was held in the Congrega tional church on last Sunday eening. A large audience assembled and the exercises throughout wore very inter esting. The report of the president of the association showed that the in come of the institution fnnii xll sources had been 23G dollars and twenty cents and the disbiirswientK 210 dollars and ninety cents. Of the latter Minmmt seventy-five dollars hod leeii appro priated to the payment ot a debt of 100 dollars incurred in the purchase of nn organ. The free reading room, which is open to the ptiMic from n;ne a. m. t nine r. m. daily, is well supplied with religions ami scilar newspapers and other periodical read ing matter. Of the daily newspapers Thk Astouian, the Portland Orego nisn, and the San Francis:) Aha, Morning Call aud evening Bulletin are kept on tile. The shelves of the bonk case however are at present very bare, and the association would gratefully receive a dona tion of any interesting and in structive books which might be be stowed by any friend to the institution. The Rev. J. V. Milligau delivered an earnest and eloquent address, showing that the association, composed as it is of members of all evangelical creeds, unsectarian and undenominational, was engaged in a grand work, and was calculated often to exert a good in fluence over those whom the church sometimes cannot reach. He stated that its object aud design being an At tempt te throw a safe guard around the young men of our city, it nugh to receive an encouraging support and a warm sympathy from every head of a family. After Mr. Milligairs ad dress a liberal collection was taken up for the benefit of the association. During the meeting several sweet songs from Moiwly and Sankey's book wore sung by the choir, the audience joining, and the services closed by all rising and singing the soul-stirring song "Hold the Fort." Messrs. C. E. Jackins & Co. have a fine assortment of ranges. A gold locket, with sufF nin at torned, picked up on the street, has been left at this otiiee for the owner, who can have the same by proving property and paying for this notice. - Mr. J. P. Feaster, teacher of pen manship, arrived in the city last even ing, and expects to open a class in this city as soon as necessary arrange ments are completed. Mr. Feaster comes very highly recommended. J. B. Hewett, of White .river, has a cow which gave in six months, 8,504 pounds of milk. This cow has given forty pounds of milk at a single milking and seventy-four pounds for a day. Messrs. Hatleys, Kenoyers, and Bailey, about ten men in all are re ported to have struck rich quartz mines up in Idaho.

Markey, was com menced at the court-house yesterday before Justice Fox. The trial was continued until a late hour, in the evening. Mace was fined fifty dollars and costs. Sanders, one of the survivors of the late Clatsop Chief accident, has been removed to the St. Vincent's hospital, Portland. His injuries are of a very serious character. Every at tention is bestowed upon the unfortu nate sufferer by the attendents" and visiting phyricians. He is in a fair way to recover, having passed the critical period. The doctors pronounca him out of danger. Vice President T. F. Oakes, of the Oregon Railway and Navigation com pany, left Walla-walla on the 11th inst for Portland. He has been look ing after his railroad interests up in that part of the country. The road is being rapidly pushed forward, aud a large force of men are busy at work laying the rails. It is being prosecu ted vigorously by the enterprising vice president. He guarantees that the trains will run to Dayton within fifty days. A large meeting of settlers of White river valley was held at Seattle Friday evening last to' consider a proposition made by E. Meeker, repre senting California capitalists, for the establishment of a beet sugar factory in that locality, providing the farmers could guarantee a yearly produce of 20,000 tons of the beets. The soil of the valley is Baid to be particularly adapted to production of the sugar beet, yielding an average of from fifteen to twenty tons to the acre. The proposition will probably be accepted; lerture. Conyregatii-nal church uesday evening, March 15th, clock. Rev. B. S.

Uemei s, anil at Carl. Adlers s bnolsiore. Horse f-'diiratlnii. In. something written we have an indistinct recollection of having made reference to a genera! disposition among boys in their teens, as well as Imys of niaturer years, to enlighten and Moss the world with their pro found knowledge of the horse and his history. Our 1hmKs and newspapers are full of this kiwi of literature, and it varies in style from the production of the child at school, commencing with: The horse has 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 who assume to instruct" And it is to be found in Kendalls Treatise on the hore, sent by mail to any person for twenty-hVe cents, postage paid.

He is agent for the standard makes of pianos, organs and all kinds of music al instrument of which he will con tinue to keep a full stock. 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 is left unsealed; whereas, if it is made out on unprinted paper, it will cost three cents. Thus by patronizing The Astokian two cents can be saved on every bill or statement that is sent out throng" the mail. Marvel not that 1 say unto you, ye must pay the printer. Whosoever iiegloctetii 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 live many years and payeth not for The Astokiax, behold he shall not die in peace till he hath re stored to the printer that which he hath withheld.
