Mrs. Eliza Shepherd, of this city, has taken the agency f several very cxcollont works, among which are the following which she offers to sub scribers in Astwria: AllVKXTUKES IX FKO-T LaNI.

This book should sell well here, because the facta and incidents which it contain are closely allied to Oreguttians, in conse quence of the part taken in the ex plorations of the 'present by Lieut. Sehwatka, and our steamer Thomas Corwin. JIistoky of tiik Doxxicie Lake Pa i:ty. "A Tragedy of the Sierra." This is the third illustrated edition of this intensely interesting 'hhA It is by C. F.

'A Complete Mirror of the Great "Metropolis." The author of this work is the world renowned correspondent of Boston and New York journals, Matthew Hale Smith. His purpose has been to draw the Great Metropolis with its lights and shadows, in a series of graphic papers, "to sketch Xew York as I have seen it;" and he has succeed ed most admirably. The illustrations are splendid and true to life. All will want this book. It will be found valu able to the old and frequent visitor of Now York; to the undent of human nature; to the lover of the marvelous; to the secuintor, to the ambitious money nrnkcrn; and in short to every citizen of America. Ex'Vcloim-:iia ok i"t'MXKs am "So cial Foi.mk. -The Laws Kti quettee and CoodSoeiet." This work is a genuine treasury of the mot useful and pnict'cal informa tion upon subjects that are constantly arising in the daily life of every one. It is writton by Jas. D. McCabe, author of the Pictorial History of the World, etc., which will :iUo he old 13 Mrs. Shepherd. As this lady is a resident and taxpayer of this cj.iutv, our citizens can feel that the' are patronizing one who will invest the profits of the trade at home, and for this reason specially we commend her and her valuable works to the public. The Weston Leader wants the railroad extended from Blue Mountain station to tap the through line frem Umatilla to Baker city. The eyes of the railway kings are iipun yon, and the road will be built jf it will pay interest, and wear and tear. Ex-Sheriff Dale came to Lufayette on Tuesday of last week, says the Courier, to answer the suit of the state against him. He looks perfectly natural and is H. C. Dale as of yore, except in his drinking proclivities. He informs us that he is well aware that whisky has brought about all his trouble and that not another drop f the accursed stuff shall ever enter his mouth. Mr. Dale has a position at the penitentiary at 40 per month, and will continue there.. The Oregon Railway and Naviga tion company now issue through way bills for freight from San Francisco to Walla-walla. This is a great con venience to shippers, as it saves them the bother of employing agents at Portland to transfer their goods from the steamship to the steamboat docks. The Portland draymen are kicking at this action, as it interferes with their business; but it was time for a change, and if every dray in Portland has to stop business tho company are right in making such changes. Now that spring has come and the sun is beginning to warm up things, all property owners should see that any heaps of rubbish or filth around their premises are burned or carted away somewhere out of the citv. There is plenty of this kind of work to do and we hope that all will attend to it before disease is generated from this garbnge. The streets in some places are in a very bad condition, and in any other climate than our own would breed malarial diseases as bad as a Missouri river bottom. Peoplo are coming here every day with a view of locating and if we desire their aid in our growth we should see to it that our streets are kept in a presentable condition. The health of our people demands it and now is the proper time to commence the work. The boat stoves made by M. C. Crosby, with fire-brick bottoms, are superior to all others in this market To Our City Patrons. On and after Tuesday, the 32th inst., Mr. L. E. Selig will have full control of the city delivery in Astoria and upper ARtona of The Daily As torian. Subscriptions must be paid to him. Any neglect on the part of his carriers, if roportod to Mr. Selig or the ofliee of The Astorian, will be promptly attended to. Mr. Selig will also act as local reporter for the paper, and any favors extended to him will be duly appreciated and reciprocated. 1). C. Irklaxd, Publisher. A'-toria, April 7. 1881.

Ilnr-e HtluraUon. In something written we have an indistinct recollection of having made reference to a general disposition among boys in tiieir teens, a3 well as boys oi innturer years, to enlighten and bless the world with thoir pro 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: Th! 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 hid first school co:njM)sition, 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 Wgin to 1-mk for some thing better in litis department of knowledge from those who assume to instruct " And it U to be found in Kendall?
