Astoria's Coasting Trade.
Among the enterprises that As
toriaus are engaged in, that of
opening up communication with
isolated communities and building
up a local trade is deserving of
mention. "Within the last year there
has been a steady and successful
effort to secure the trade of.outly-
ing communities that by reason of
their position and identity of in
terests should mak their head
quarters for supplies at Astoria.
The Ilwaco Steam Navigation
company and the Shoalwater Baj
Transportation company have been
doing good work in this respect.
They have buill first-class vessels,
well adapted for the coast trade,
and have established regular lines
of steam travel between various
points on the coast. The S. J). 'J1.
Co., make it possible now to reach
Olympia in sixty hours from Asto
ria, and that, too, through some of
the most delightful scenery in
America, and have opened to the
world that great empire of the fut
ure, extending from Shoalwater
Bay, and Gray's Harbor tcMonte
sano and Chchalis. They have
long since brought Ilwaco, Oys
terville, and, indeed, all Pacific
county, into speedy communication
with Astoria, and are now stretch
ing out to Tillamook and other
southerly points. On the Miles,
which left yesterday morning, went
goods of various kinds to Garibal
di, llobsonville, and other points,
and on her return fo-day she
brings back the dairy products of
that fertile region. It is a trade
that rightfully belongs to Astoria,
and the enterprising men that are
bringing it here desen e commen
dation and support.
A line of steamers is just like a
newspaper in-at least two respects;
it tikes money to run both, and
in both cases, the better support
ed they are, the more efficient the'
are, and the more useful to the
public. If our northern fiiends
sec fit to go to Portland for their
goods, and pay from seventeen to
twenty-two dollars a ton to have
their goods shipped to Kalama,
there sent to Olympia, and there
carried in wagons to its destina
tion, ot course that is their privi
lege, but it is manifestly money in
their pockets to buy their goods in
Astoria, and get the boats thai
run from here to take their freight
at one-third the old charges and
far more expeditiously than before.
Force Will Prevail.
Ir two drowning men come with
in reach of a fragment of the
wreck which can save one but not
both, cither would be justified by
the law of the land in slaying the
other, to preserve his o n life. A
nation involved In war will in like
manner disregard all treaties and
compacts when they stand in the
way of an ultimate ictory. It is
not expected that any nation in
the world will respect the terms of
an agreement, if it is working dis
astrously. The success of the
military operations of the JJriiish
in Egypt, seem to require the oc
cupancy of the canal; it has been
taken, and would have been, had
there been a bushel of treaties to
the contrary. The English arc
strong enough to do so, there is
an important object to be gained,
and they have not hesitated to act
upon the very first occasion. A
canal connecting the Atlantic with
the Pacific, would be seized by any
stronger power, in case of emer-i
gency,no matter what sort of in
ternational compacts may have
been entered into. If such work
were completed, the United States
would not hesitate an instant to
send its (fleets th rough it if the
lactlie possessions woro menaced
by an enemy; if I3rilish Columbia i

no matter what agreements to the
contrary'' may have been made in
timesof peace. If a canal were
built and owned by the United
States, its neutrality would be vio-!
lated in case of any great andj
uuv,IBlim necessity, umess
theie were superior force on the
jspot to prevent such a proceduic. j
W nnrrt nAnil Kn ttrhfttttisw i 1

alarming in such considerations,
because every nation -would antici
pate them and discount them if
planning for war. It would in
effect be the same as if a naturol
water course had ahvns existed
there. The discussions which
have in the past been had about
guaranteeing the neutrality of the j
canal, are of not much more piue
tical value than the debates of u
county lyceum. Force will pre
vail. Xo treaty or compact which
restrains one of the belligerents
from the use of an effective weap
on, will be allowed to stand in the
wav. The trrcatest juns will eon-
finno lo rule the world, but the
latent ability In produce big guns
on short notice, will count Pm
almost as much. The military
power of the United States, with
neither army or navy, to speak of,is
piobably respected fully as much
as the power of some conntiies
which are wasting ilieir means in
the equipment of costly navies,
and in I he maintenance ! l.nn.'
inir armies.
A onstan'ijnepli: despatch of
the 20th ult. saysM. Condaurcetis,
Greek ambassador, represented to
Said Pasha that the collision was
piovokcd by violation of Gieek
territory by Turks. Said Pasha
replied that last month a detach
ment of Greek troops crossed the
frontier and cut telegraphic com
munication between the Tuikish
military post and village. The
Turks requiring supplies were
obliged to pass through a part of
the Greek territory, when they
were opposed and fired upon by
Greeks, and retaliated, driving off
the latter. The poite has tele
graphed its minister at Athens
instructing him to name a
representation to the Greek gov
ernment insisting upon a cessation
of hostilities.
A n:i.Kt;i: or from Alexandria,
dated Aug, 20th, says that those
afloat in the harbor to-day wit
uessed the unusual sight of keel
hauling three Arab sailors on board
the Egyptian frigate, Sunday, for
minder. They were first flogged,
then tied with rope and hauled up
to the port side yard-arm and then
diopped into the sea and dragged
under the keel and hauled up to
the stai board yard-arm. They soon
died.
