reports all well on the rock.
Work has been commenced on
the new building for Mr. J. Win.

Navigation company's dock.
Among the new residences to be

recently purchased in the Hinmau
tract, fronting on Chenamiib stree.
Mr. W. U. Headington is the con
tractor. Rev. B. S. McLafferty arrived in
the city yesterday, and, in accordance
with previous announcement, deliv
ered his popular lecture on Sir Walter
Scott's Lady of the Lake, to a good
audience. .Mr. McLafferty is an elo
quent speaker.
The steamship Oregon did not
make her appearance yesterday. Al
though her passage has been somewhat
prolonged, we think no anxiety should
le entertained as to her safety, as the
strong head winds the past few days
have undoubtedly caused her lion
arrival.
A dispatch was received in this
city yesterday announcing that Capt.
Merryman had been appointed collec
tor of customs at the port of Astoria.
Capt. Merryman has for several years
past filled very acceptably the position
of deputy collector at this place.
Attention is called to the adver
tisement of H. Cartwright & Son in
another column of The Astokian to
day. Messrs. Cartwright fc Son are
experienced boiler makers and sheet
iron workers and have established
1 themselves in this city for the purpose
of carrying on a business which fills a
want long needed.
We learn that a great many
horeeB throughout the city have been
attacked by the influenza prevalent
among horBss in all parts of the state.
There are but few, however, that are
unable to work, while nearly all ap
pear to experience but a sore throat
We have heard from what is consid
ered reliable authority that tar, wrap
ped around the bit, so that the animal
may constantly taste it, is a preventive
from this disease.
The delinquent assessment roll uf
school district No. 18 has been placed
in the handB of Sheriff Twombly for
collection. This district comprises the
second ward in this city, and in look
ing over the names of the delinquents
we were forced to the conclusion that
many of them were either not aware
that they had been taxed, or else that
they had not been notified that their
taxes were due. The sheriff informs
us that lie has no desire to run any
tax-payer into costs, and he intends
to receive the face of the taxes for one
week longer, after which he will be
forced to advertise the delinquent list,
which wjll be an additional cost to the
tax-payer.
Caws and effect go together as the
crow flics.

His bmids were placed at

- -Capt. Eads is coming to look at
the mouth of our river. Good enough!
As congress pajs but little attention
to our pleadings, perhaps Capt. Eads
can influence the mouth to speak for
itself.
The East Oregoman, published at
Pendleton, has at last discarded its

patrons with a live journal, printed
entirely at home. Success attend you
and may you have many followers.
Monday afternoon about half past
three, fire broke out in the Oregon

complete destruction by the company's

about $10,000, which is covered by

John Dickson, formerly carpenter
of the British bark Dilharee, of Lon
don, will please communicate with his
father or Capt. Hastie of bark Glen

Monday afternoon the new steam
launch, Argonaut, built by Messrs. J.
W. & V. Cook, for use between their
cannery at Clifton and the new fish
ing station to be established at Sand
island, steamed dow u the river from
Portland as far as St. Johns, on her
trial trip. The craft is staunch aud
shapely, and she is built for speed.
Her machinery, built by the Willamet
iron works, is-a model of strength,
and worked very smoothly. The
Argonaut, with 180 revolutions uer
minute, made a trifle over twelve
miles an hour. Capt. Fred Cougdon
will handle her wheel, and Mr. Her
bert Holmati the throttle.
Last Fiiday, in broad daylight, a
party of men, with wagon and spades,
deliberately went into the vineyard of
Mr. John Brendle, at Albiua, aud
carefully dug up about a hundred
choice vines, four years old, valued at
four to five hundred dollars, and
carried them off. The neighbors
saw the men at work, but supposed,
from the publicity of the affair, that
the vines were removed by the direc
tion of Mr. Brendle. They were een
to go in the direction of HolIaday,s
addition, but so far can be traced no
further. Mr. Brendle offers a reward
for their apprehension.
President Hayes, before leaving
the executive mansion ordered that
the following tract of land situated in
Washington territory, be set aside and
reserved for the use and occupancy of
the Spokane Indians: Commencing at
a point vhere Chemekane creek cross
es the forty-eighth parallel of latitude,
thence down the east bank of said
creek to where it crosses the Spokan
river, westwardly along the south
bank thereof to a point to where it
enters the Columbia river; thence
across the Columbia river, northerly
along the western bank to a point
where said river crosses the forty
eighth parallel of latitude; then east
along said parallel to the place of
beginning.
The St. Helen Columbian says:
"On Marh 2d 1881, Capt. Nath. In
gersol, inspector for the French Ver
itas, made inspection numbor five of
the new schooner building at the
lower end of town and pronounced
her to be one of the most finely built
vessels of her size ever put up on the
coast. The workmanship and the ma
terial used in her construction are of
the very best, which reflects great
credit on her owners and builders.
She will soon be ready to take the
wator, so that she can receive her
spars. Captain I. says her carrying
capacity will be close on to 300 tons.
We arc not prep'ared to say what trade
she will go into, but presume she will
go into the Sound and Island trade,
being well adapted for either The
Muckle brothers having increased
their dock and mill capacity, will be
always able.to load her with lumber
for San Francisco and elsewhere when
necessary."
A gentleman was promenading
the streets with a bright little boy,
when the little fellow cried eut: "Oh,
papa, there goes an editor!" "Hush,
hush," said the father, "don't make
sport of the poor man -God only
knows what you may come to yet,"
The new town of Toledo, situated
on the Cowlitz river is rapidly improv
ing. A large warehouse has just been
finished, aud many new buildings arc
now in course of erection. Everything
looks prosperous in that growing coun
try. Toledo is rapidly iuurousiug in
population aud wealth, and will sunn
be a very important place.
Prof. J. J. Feaster will open a
class in penmanship at the school
house on Main street, on Wednesday
evening next, 21st inst. The Oregon

J. P. Foaster of Portland, loft us a
few days ago for Astoria. The Prof,
has had a clasa of over one hundred
scholars here m penmanship, all of
who are warm in their expressions, re
garding his successful method of teach
ing. We commend him to the people
of Astoria, feeling that they will have
no cause to regret giving him a large
class."
The little steamer Clatsop Chief,
which collided with the steamship
Oregon about two weeks ago, a short
distance above St. Helens, has been
raised and towed to the last point
mentioned. She was lying with her
bottom upwards and upon raising her
it w, s found thut her bow was missing.
It had been cleanly cut off by the
clli.-.tn. Her engines were found in
their proper positions, not injured in
the least. The Oregon bisected the
unfortunate little steamer just close
enough to carry away her boilers. A
new boiler will be put into her aud
her bow renewed, after which she will
be in splendid condition to return to
her labors.
