Noltnor, of the Standard, Portland, arrived in the city yester day. The steamship Columbia arrived down from Portland yesterday aster noon.

She will sail for San Fran cisco at live w'dock this morning. Sir. M. D.

The steamer Wostpurt amvod vesterdav uiorimi from Portland r.iih a full froilit for this city, a large portion of which was machinery for the newly incorporated Astoria iron works. The committee appointed by the common council met at the council chamber yesterday afternoon at fonr o'clock to investigate the charges pre ferred by John Stephenson and George Doerfler against Chief of Police W. J. Barry. The plaintiffs were present and withdrew the charges. Mr. Oscar I. Clay has bought the Commercial Reporter, of Portland, and will hereafter have complete con trol of the paper. Mr. Clay for several years has had charge of much of the detail work, and has sufficient experience and ability to conduct the paper so as to fill its field. Messrs. Leinenweber & Co. have already commenced the construction of two buildings on Sand island for the accommodation of their fishermen. Net racks will also be constructed so that the boats may remain at the island and the fiah brought up by the steamers. Messrs. Cook Bros, have al ready commenced the construction of a number of net racks on the island and will also station their fishermen there. A large scow with comfortable apartments has been provided for the comfort of their fishermen. As the steamship Columbia neared the dock yesterday, Mr. John Kelson, the efficient boatman was on hand, ready to take the lines as usual. The heaving line accidently became foul with the keel of Mr. Nelson's boat, and while in the act of clearing it, he was dumped into the river and receiv ed -a cold batb. Without a word he was soon in his boat, recovered his oars, shook himself, took his seat and informed Capt. Bolles that there was sufficient water and the ship was land ed without trouble or accident. A. Blow About Blizzards. The New York Evening Post seems to Imj trying to find out Uiu origin of the western word "blizzard." Some time ago The Astokiax stated that the word was a cornijtMi of the phrase "Wow hard," as uttered by an inebriated Chicago individual. Tiie Evening Post has several crresKHi denti who d ut think thie is the correct derivation of tfcv word, al though there is one whj cioeke with tlie Chicago version. Otw Ger man jHM-wm thinks it come fn the fiMttiiiar phrawe "donuer n:id hittaen." The trauafiniatiHi of th la rd makes the bliaeard. Ano&ct says the term comes from the Sjtanu by way of Texas and Mexico. The Spanish word "brisa" jronMtcird "brw-x," awl finally blizzard. Still another insists that the word eomes from the blaxiMg" of trees. Tfu- traveler makes hi way through the ! by slashing the outside Irni k with his ax. The terrible storms that drive through the forest blaze or whiten the trees with snow and sleet, hence "blizzard." The Espinosa Concert Company. As will be seen by the fo'.h.wing letter to Mr. Carl Adler, fnii 3Iana gor Stechhan the E-jjMmwa concert coniauy announced to play at Astoria on Monday evening nnxt lm-e been so weli received throughout the interior that their entortninnietit at Liberty hall is postponed until Saturday even ing, April 2d. Reserved seats may be secured at Atller's without extia charge. Seats already mjcuivcI hold good. Mr. StechliHii addresses Mr. Adler from Portland asfollews: Dbak Six: Onr company 1ms met with such success in The Dalles and Walla-walla that we wore obliged to repeat ciHrts in both places, and must play, by request, another concert here after retniiig from rim vr Hey, March 31st. 1 am therefore obliged to change my Astoria date, and will i!ay in your city Saturday evening, Apnl 2d.

This petition was forw:irded about two weeks ago to Judge Lindsay, of Balti more. It is probable the new lodge will be instituted about the latter part of May. Sheriff Tranllion, of Baker coun ty, met with a painful accident hist woek. He was carrying a heavy Colt's navy revolver, 45 calibre, and unintentionally let it drop on the jail floor. It strnsk on the hammer and exploded, the ball striking him in the fleshy part of the leg and ranging upward passed through. No bones were broken, but the wound is quite painful. The Dalles Mountaineer says: By later surveys the distance between The Dalles and Portland on the line of the new railroad is materially les-dwm-d. Throe tunnels have been f.und U be unnecessary, and the time and labor of completing the road thereby reduced considerably. It is now probable that the road will be al most entirely finished within a year from the present time. Gangs of workmen are continually passing through the city on the road to their stations and work is being "vigorously prosecuted. Every man that can be found who is willing to work is pressed into the service. The Sunday Magazine for Apnl.

Such people seem to forget to take in consideration that our country is increasing in popu lation nearly 40 per cent every ten years, anil no matter how old the place may be, there are constant changes taking place; some move to other imrts,and strangers fill their places. In this 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.
