The recent cold interfered aeri on sly with tho Shoalwater hay oyster trade. The Columbia Chronicle has been sold to Messrs. Wilson and 3IcCully for 5,000. Frank Baltes came down from tho metropolis on yesterday after noon's boat. The British bark Casper is in Ba ker's Bay. She goes to the Soun.'t to load lumber. Over one thousand human beings were drowned, burned, frozen and mangled during January. -Gu3taro Hansen goes below on the Queen to day.

Carl Adler and wife leave San Francisco to-day en route for home. Captain Hustler comes up on the next trip of the Queen. The building of the goi-ernrnent tel egraph from Port Angeles to Cape Flattery has been much delayed by heavv weather and lack of material. The first comet of 1SS2 is an nounced. The weather will be too cloudy to-night, but the comet id in the sky, just south of those bright fi tars known as the belt of Orion. During the heavy rains there were 80 washouts on the lino of the Northern Pacific, between Snrague and Ainsworth, and 50,000 ties weie washed awtjy at Palouse Junction. A little San Francisco boy told his father that ho had seen tho milk man kiss his mother. Then the father shot the mother; then he tried to kill himself. Now it transpires that the 1. S. F. b. lied. A couple of sports who came up from California last Monday after noon, started in to work tho town im mediately upon arriving, and tried the racket on ten saloon keepers. Tho second attempt resulted in laudiug them in the city jail. The trick was new onco, but is getting ancicut. Two individuals enter a saloon, call for the drinks and put down a ten-dollar gold piuce. Thoy get back a 3 piece and 4.75 in hilrer as chauge. Tho one who pays then puts his hand into hisiindiv pocket, and picks on t a two-bit pince and putting it with the $1.75 in silver asks tho barkeep to give hnn S3 in gold for it. While the barkeep is fishing it out. iho man, unnoticed.shps tho $5 gold piece into lri pocket, leaving the 5 in silver still lying on the counter, where the barkeep places the 5 in gold. Then the brace of worthies call for two more drinkf, the money being allowed to lie there. Then one of them goes down in his pocket, planka down anothor ttvo-bit piece fr the last drinks, hhoves the 85 in gold and the 5 in silver over to the barkeep, and asks for a 810 piece for ir. Having got it they slip out, just $4.50 and four drinks ahead of the little game. The chaps that tried it on last Monday night were not sharp enough to escape detection. Officer Hunter and Sheriff Twombly arrested the two in Sovcy's saloon whero they were trying it on, and on tho way to the jail one of them tried to shako Hunter off and get away, but he was persuaded to go in to a cell. We are nt just positive what form the charge against thorn must be to hold, but they should bo cinched on general principles. In a case like this we discard our freo trade ideas and believe in protection. The commissioner of the general i Real Estate Transactions from Feb. 1st to 14th.
