Anna, Ghee from Shoalwater bay, arrived at San Francisco on the 7th. The State of California arrived on time yesterday, and proceeded to Portland at ten o'clock a. m. The steamer Columbia sails this morning for San Francisco. She takes about 1,000 tons of freight from the Astoria Farmer." yyliarf. Chief Engineer A. W. Berry and wife are in Portland, purchasing fur niture, etc, intending to set up house keeping on Court streyt, soon. If you wen; in Paris just now, you would lose caste if you appeared at fashionable entertainments wearing any other Ho v. ers than the mimosa. A CHsende of green leaves tatter ing to a point at the waist aud fastened with a rod rose at the throat suits all dark droses, whether the wearers be beauties or not. It is the whim of the moment to use face towels of raw silk, the towol so boft that it can be drawn through a finger ring. These are thought to im prove the complexion. Vessels new to us, are added to the list en route to this port to day, from the New York Maritime Register, the 'Oracle. Palmyra, Buston Yale, and River Doon. '"Valuable music. Forty choice late pieces of music, postpaid, for fifty cents. Twenty pieces for twenty-five cents. Three pieces, five cent. I. D. Lovett & Co., Painesvlllc, Ohio. The good looking ladies ot Ore gon are not such as compete for prizes through the agency of the Police Gazotte hence the proposition of Mr. Richard K. Fox is,declined. -f 1- County Treasurer Ileilborn yestor- day informed us that in.a few days he would be able to announce the fact t that a large amount of warrants out standing would' ie paid on presenta tion. Our sanctum was cheered by a visit from Mr. Theodore F. Miner, one of the live young men of Oregon whwse place of business is at La Grande. He goes below by the steamer Columbia. A gentleman yesterday offered to pay our expenses to Omaha,if we would return there to "cuss a fellow" for him. We declined, for the reason that we've "sworn off;" even upon travel, for a year. Buy nothing of a peddler that you can buy of a home dealer, and most notably of a Chinese peddler. How do we know that the goods are not the product of such leprous concerns as are to be found on the coast. Passengers from both the incom ing and the outgoing steamers yestor day enjoyed the hospitalities of the Occident hotel, where mine hosts Megler and Wright set the finest table of any hotel on the coast. Messrs. Wood & Co., of the South Bend mills, inform us that there is a serious complaint in conse quence of the poglect of the Light house district to place buoys at the entrance to Shoalwater bay. The matter was referred to Capt. Reiter a long time ago, but up to date nothing has been done, and through this neg lect it is asserted that ship owners contemplate drawing their vessels off the Shoalwater bay trade, which will render hardship to the people living there. A petition is being prepared to properly represent the case to authorities in Washington. Invading the Clouds It will be seen by the following note from a St. Louis paper that an east orn roGnery sees Clans Sprekle's San Francisco refinery, and goes him two stories better. The Post says: i'The Belcher sugar refining company have closed contracts for the erection of a new sugar refinery on the south side of Ashley street, between Main and Lewis. The new structure will "he twelve stories high, with thirty roams, and will cost $20,000. It will have a, frontage of 2S4 feet on Ashley street, and will be 13G feet deep. It is ex pected to have it ready for operations by September 1.' Clnus spreads his sweetness over more territory than, the Belcher company, howevar. M. D. Kants ad. speaks for itelf. Business always follow the liberal ad vertiser. The Scottish Fairy arrived down yesterday in tow of the Ocklahama, Capt. P. Johnson pilot. The 10th will bo Palm Sunday; the 17th will be Easter Snlay; the 14th will be the foast of the Passover; Good Friday on the loth; Odd Fol lows anniversary on the 2tith. The Commercial Union assurance company of London, one of the most reliable coi itorations doing business- in the United States, have established an agoncy at Astoria, which will be at tended to by Mr. Geo. W. Hume. See card olsewhore. On the arrival of the steamship State of California yesterday morning otiicor Joe Day, of Portland, boarded her and arrested a man by the name of Frod Maver, on a dispatch from chief of police Fletcher of Oakland, on a charge of grand larceny, in steal ing C00. Bro. A. E. Sales entered our sanctum just as we had got nicely seated with our prof sheet for read ing. We could not see him, as we faced the opposite way, but reaching his honest horny old hand over our loft shoulder he said: I am glad to see ye" back.' It is needless for us to remark that we are "lad to be w here our friend could see our back. Yesterday afternoon as Mr. M. Myers was driving his beer wagon aloii" the it tad way the king pin sud- doury broke, letting the hind part of the wagon down with a smash, break ing numerous bottles and causing a flowing fit ream of litger, which was enough to make a thirsty mouth water. Thus did beer produce water and mingle with that of the bay for com mercial purposes. A paper by R, W. Emerson, on his personal impressions of Thomas Carlyle, made up from his unpublish ed letters written at the time of his first visit to Ennland, will appear in Scribner for May. The publication is made by special agreement with Mr. Emerson and the Massachusetts his torical society, before which the paper was read, and m the minutos of which it is to be printed after its appearance in ;crbncr. The New York Maritime Register, in its issue of March 23d, heads its editorial column with the follewing: "It is to be hoped that no delay will occur in making the necessary im provements at the bar of the Colum bia liver, Oregon. The river is the outlot for a rich aud fertile country, as the trades of Portland aud Astoria well demonstrate. The suggestions of the board of trade of these cities con cerning the navigation of the Colum bia river should receive much con sideration at Washington. Columbia river and Puget sound are rising in commercial importance, and with im provements in the navigation of the river and the completion of the North ern Pacific railway to the sound, trade on the Pacific coast in the neighbor hood of these places will increase rapidly." James R. Osgood & Co., the popular Boston publishers, have placed upon our table Mrs. Burnett's latest novel, A Fair Barbarian, in which the author seems likely to eclipse, at least as far" as popularity is con cerned, all her earlier triumphs. The title of the story is in itself a most happy conception. The Fair Bar barian is a young American lady who has lived in Nevada, and who comes upon an English country town, with) xne sucgesuve name ot Slowbndge, to astonish its inhabitants by an indi viduality of character wholly unique. The morit.of the novel is largely in its admirable purpose and the exquisite skill with which it is carried out It is a refreshing vindication of the American girl, whom it has been too much the custom of writers to de preciate of late. Mrs. Burnett knows her well and does her ample justice. She "knows England, too, and we have the benefit of that knowledge in the types of English character presented. Carlyle's Reminiscences. The Literary Revolution will issue immediately a beautiful Acme edition, olegant cloth binding, of the jRomiins cencos of Thomas Carlyle, price thirty cents, postage six cents, and it can be had of the nearly 2,000 booksellers who are agents of the Literary Revo lution in all parts of the United States. Thomas Carlyle, more than any other man of the nineteenth century, taught the American public, and people of good sense throughout the world, to despise pretense and humbug, wheth er exhibited by monarch or menial. Sensible people who want a good book at an honest price will buy it where they find it. There is in tins country no law which gives to a foreign author, as it gives to an American, tee right of the monopoly of the publication of his book. If publishers choose to pay a foreign author anything, they can do i only as a donation, because he can give them in return no protection from cotnjHJtition. Readers have the privilege of making such donation, if they choose to do so without paying it to the publishers aud trusting to the possibility of their paying it to the author for them. There is no dona tion included in the price above named. Readers who want to com bine a possible donation, and a posi tive price, can get an edition of this same book from other publishers at from two to eight times the price. Address American Book Exchange, Xew York. Trains will be running through from The Dalles to Walla-walla on the same gauge by the. 12th. It will be all rail on Sunda'., The Alden Bosse will sail for As toria from Hongkong to-morrow. Miss Ida Brown will be :i passenger. Late letters inform Miss Ida's parents here that she has had a very pleasant time since leaving Astoria. - A civil ongineer was running and locating the lines of a lot of laud be low the city of Augusta. Georgia, and used as assistance a deed to the property drawn 120 years ago. In one section of that deed it was record ed that the line touched a ceitain point where stands an oid beach tree, and upon which a cross mark had Wen made with an ax. The ongineer ran this line to an old bench tree, and, concluding this wa9 the point in ques tion looked for the mark but of course could not find it. Taking an ax he cut into the tree at a point he thought the murk might be, and to his surprise, after cutting into the tree, he chip ped out a block and there was the identical jnark referred to in the ancient document. The mark was perfect, but had been covered up. At that time this was a British colony, and some years before the Revolution ary war. , Dr. John Welch, dentist, will be at the Occident hotel in this city about the 20th inst, and remain a short time for the practice of his pro- fession.

Uy 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 yvhen 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 Astoria? two cents can be saved un every bill or statement that is sent out through the mail. To Our City Patrons. On and after Tuesday, the 12th "nst., Mr. L. E.
