The Shubrick went down to the bar yesterday but was compelled to return to Bakers bay. The main building of Mr. Jos. Hume's Astoria cannery is rapidly nearing completion. We notice several sidewalks throughout the city in bad condition, minus railings, etc. A little child of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Leon was buried in the city cemetery yesterdaj'. Every cannery between Tongue point and the mouth of the river will be in active operation the coming sea son. Tho inmates of the city jail wore out enjoying the beautiful weather yesterday, and at the same time exercising themselves by cleaning the streets. When an Astoria girl gets a letter from her sweetheart, is that any rea son why she should run her head into a fellow's bosom on the sidewalk while leading it? Such recklessness should be prohibited. Hill's brass band was out yester day and discoursed some fine music Several new pieces have recently been added to this band, and it claims now to be equal to any and excelled by none on the coast. The British ship Glenearn has just finished discharging 925 tons of English steel rail for the Oregon Rail way and Navigation company, at Allen & Lewis' docks, Portland, and is now loading with wheat and Hour. The steamship Oregon was still unable to cross the bar yesterday. She was detained on her trip up by the strong head winds. Yesterday morn ing she was sighted off the bar about five o'clock, but was unable to cross. Yesterday she was again sighted off the bar, making an attempt to enter, which was abandoned on account of the Toughness of the bar. The new steamer, the Washing ton, is now lying at the Willamet Iron works, Portland, being fitted up with new machinery, etc. She is owned by the business men of Van couver who propose to run her between Portland and that place. She will cost about twelve thousand dollars when finished and will be a solid, sub stantial vessel. Rev. L. A. Banks, the editor of The Censer, a temperance journal published at Vancouver, is in the city, and will canvass Astoria to-daj' for subscribers to his paper. He will de liver a temperance lecture this even ing at half-past seven o'clock at the roomB of the Young Men's Christian association. Admission free and no collection taken up. All are invited to attend. One of the busiest places in the city is the machine works of Messrs. Arndt & Ferchen. There can be daily seen a large force of men con stantly employed and the shops push ed with work. They have two lathes and make a specialty of cannery work, repairing dies, etc. It is their' inten tion to erect a large and commodious shop on the let recently purchased by them foot of Lafayette street, but on account of the constant rush of work they will not be in xeadineBS to more until after the fishing season. Saint Patrick. To-day, St- Patrick's day, seems to have beon sadly neglected by our Irish fellow-citizens. We have heard of no j preparations having been made forj any celebration, and it is evidont the j day will pass by unnoticed. It has been customary for centuries to cele brate the anniversary of St. Patrick on the 17th of March. We have no reliable data as to his birthplace. By some it is claimed that he was born in France, while others claim that he was born at Kilipatrick, on the mouth of the river Cluyd, in Scotland, between Danbrittn and Glasgow, in the year 873, and died in Ireland March 17, 495, being at that time 122 years old. It is tho anniversary of his death, not of his birth, which the Irish cele brate with characteristic propensity. He whs of honorable birth, as his name, Patricius, indicates. He was the son of Calphuruius and Couchessa, and was of mixed descent, British, Gaulish and Roman. During his early career he was captured several times and made to serve as a slave, but by the interposition of Divine Providence he was released from his long captivity and restored to his home. He was a great abolitionist and directed his energies to the sup pression of slavery, which was general in his day. Both Catholic and Pro testant writers assert that he was a man after God'a own heart. No coun try kept the purity of religion so un sullied by aught earthly, as Ireland in the early centuries. Mr. Joseph Paquette has just re coived the contrast from the Ore gonian Navigation company to build a new stern wheel steamboat for their river trade. It is estimated that the vessel will cost in the neighborhood of fifteen thousand dollar. It will bo completed in about three mouths. A Mr. Bent has arrived in Victo ria from Cowichan and reports having discovered a lead of gold and silver bearing quartz of great richnoss in the mountains not far from the Kokesa liah quartz mining company's claim. He is snid to have rich specimens and is on his way to California to have them assayed. The Malheur reservation is to be abandoned and the stores and supplies transferred to the Yakima agency, so soon as the roads are practicable for travel, which is not likely to happen before June. Many ranchers in the vicinity of Malheur reservation are waiting with interest to learn what disposition is to be made of the lands. The little steamer Luella, built at Astoria, has beon purchased by parties on the upper Columbia, and will be placed on the river between Grant's Landing and Columbus, Washington territory, and will be used in connec tion with a large barge to convey freight and passengers from the Ore gon to the Washington territory side. Next Sunday, the 20th inst., the Oregon Railway and Navigation com pairy will adopt a new freight tariff, and all charges will be made at a hun dred pound rate instead of by the ton. Freight will be divided into four classes, each at a fixed rate. Under the new schedule up bound freight is reduced about ten per cent. The company has issued an extensive pamphlet giving freight classifications and explicit instructions to shippers and employes. Mr Curtis Galloway informed a reporter of The Dalles Mountaineer of a strange freak of nature which took place near Three-mile creek, about eight and a half miles from that city. Recently a spot of ground which had before been apparently as compact as that which surrounded it was suddenly torn up as if by an earthquake, and rocks and earth were scattered in every direction, leaving an immense hole which immediatelly filled with water. The performance was probably caused by the action of tho atmosphere on some subterranean body of water and as it has furnished a comparatn ely dry section with an abundance of that useful liquid, it is quite an accommodation freak of Dame Nature as well furnishing an advantage to offer to prospective immi grants. ih. o. ir--.r easier wi onen a class m penmnsliirnt he school house on Main smjet, An Monday evening next, 21stinst The Oregon city Enterprise says of htm.

In something written we have an indistinct recollection of having made reference to a general disposition among 003-3 in their teens, as well as boys of mnturur years, to enlighten and bless the world with their pn found 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 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 smelluth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains and the shouting. Betweon 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 mastored the whole subject. As we approach tile close of this nineteenth century, we begin to look for some- Mnug better 111 this department of knowledge from those who assume to instruct. And it is to be found in Kendalls Treatise on the horse, sent by mail to any person for twenty-live cents, postage paid. Apply to The Astokian office, or address D. C. Ire- laud, Astoria. Oregon.

John Rogers, of the Central Market, has made arrangements to keep all the finest fresh fish, eta, 111 their se:iAon. For the best Beer in Astoria, call for the Columbia lireicery Bter, acknowledged to be superior Ut all others. P. J. Goodman, on Chenamu street, has just receivea the latest and most fashionable style of gents and ladies boots, shoes, etc --Fresh vegetables, parsley, greens, etc, for table U3e, fresh from the gardens, can be had cheaply at Mrs. Gallou's, Squemoqhe street.

For a first-class oyBter stew, fry, pan-roast or fancy roast, go to Roscoe's on Main street, opposite N. Loeb's. Families supplied by the hundred or tho sack, opened or in the shell. Gray's wood yard is now fitted up on the wharf foot of Benton street, and prepared to deliver wood to any part of the city sawed to any length, and full measure. When you want a dish of nipe Eastern Oysters done up a la mode, or a good steak, or a fragrant cup of coffee, call at Frank Fabres on the roadway, and he will accommodate you. Open at all hours. John Rogers has just received at the Central market a large invoice of coal oil, assorteds brand, and for sale at reduced rates. He also keeps a general assortment of groceries, liq uors, tobacco, cigars, fruita and vege tables jof best quality, which he offers a small profit for cash. Auction or no auction, Adler's large stock, recently brought up by him from San Francisco, has so rapid ly sold that he was compelled to leave again for San Francisco by the last steamer to replenish his store with all the latest novelties in his line He is agent for the standard makes of pianos, orgaus and all kinds of music al instruments 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, am be sent bi' mail for one cent, if the envelope is left unsealed; whereas, if it is made out on uuprinted paper, it will cost three centa. Thus by patronizing The Astoeiax two cents can be saved on overybill or statement that is sent out through the mail. Marvel not that 1 say unto you, ye inust 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 live many years and payeth not for Thk Astoriax, behold he shall not die in peace till he hath re stored to the printer that which he hath withheld. Syphon Studj- Lamp. Hon. I. W. Case, of Astoria, in placing the new Syphon study lamp on the market, would call the atton- tintion ot the trade to sotqe ot its merits. Its illuminating qualities are not equalled by any study lamp in use. It fives a steady, .brilliant light; is free from unpleasant odor;does not drip either when burning or not burning; easily lighten and trimmed, and is without exception, the most conveni ent lamp to fill ever made. Directions accompanying each lamp. Call upon -Mr. Case and huv one. He sells them xt remarkable low rates. Onfral Hotel. The Central hotel, near the steam ship dock is now open for the recep- tion of "iiosts. where the well known caterer, Mr. Anton Beloh will always be found ready to wait on his patrons. He has had the alwtve named house thoroughly refitted by Messrs. Pike and Stockton, our well known artists. Call and see him. as he has the finest brands of liquors and cigars to be had m the city.

Rheumatism is tho most terrible disease that has ever afflicted human ity, yet it instantly yields to the pow erful drugs that Kendall's Spavin Cure is composed of. See their advertise ment. Since the Chinese started to brew "cheap San Francisco beer" there is little or no demand for that article any more. Call for the Columbia brewery beer, if you want something good.

Labor-saving ma chinery, patent tools and steam have robbed the trade of the future it offered to our boys in the days of the indentured apprentice system. The idlers and do nothings of our metropolitan cities are composed largelj of tradesmen and professional men, and merchandising is a failure, if the number of bankrupt merchants who had to succumb to the pressure of the times can be taken as a criterion. What the country needs is pro ducers, and the waste fields of unculti vated land offers an opportunity to place tho rising generation In the way of mak ing ftomes for themselves and beUe tiuife for posterity.
