Myers is fitting up the Fisherton cannery, nhich piece ho will make his base of operations next season. -The Shubtick arrived in yester day afternoon from Gray's harbor and Shoalwater bay, where buoy lure been laid. On the 13th inst., tho Olyinpia marshal sold tho 0. & C. V. R. R. for delinquent municipal taxes, amounting to $80.40. The Jas. A. GarBeld is at Knapp ton; the Tarn O'Shantcr goes to Ea rner to lead: the Young America started up to Portland yesterday morning. Small pox is heard of in various localities in the interior. Should it appear in Astoria, or any disease of a kindred nature, the city is not pro pared to promptly conGuc it. Yesterday afternoon but little ico was running; tho river being perfectly smooth. The damage done was tri fling, nothing bcinjjinjurod but a few piles on tho roadway, .and in upper town. Pools of dirty water and lialf raelted snow make foot travel un pleasant. The more enterprising were busy cleaning away the slash from in front of their doors yesterday afternoon. The fire alarm sounded at half past thrco yesternay afternoon. The occasion was a firo in the city jail. Jos. For, who was confined in one of the cells, had poured some oil out of the lamp3 on some kindling wood, and set it on fire. It was fortunately seen in time to be put out before doing any damage. Ho said he wanted to get warm; such a freak as that would make most anyone a little hot. The New Jersey state horticul tural society presents data showing p that large tracts of land in tho south ern part of the state formerly deemed worthless have been reclaimed and planted in cranberries, the net profit being enormeus: in some instances $800 and $1,000 to tho acre. The lands in question are in every way in ferior to tens of thousands of acres in Clatsop and Pacific counties, on which tho cultnre of the cranberry would be a profitable pursuit. As Sirs. B. was passing along Main street the other day, she over heard Sir. W. say he would give his buggy to kiss her. She at once fired with indignation and concluded to make trouble, and accordingly sought Mrs. W. and related what ehe had heard. "Did ho say he would give his buggy to kiss you?" asked Mrs. W. "Yes ho did, and I heard him," indignantly protested Mrs. B. "Well," said Mrs. W., "if ho did, and I have no reason to doubt it, he will do it. That's just tho kind of a man Ned is." W. W. Democrat Made no Nomination. Astobul, Feb. 15, 1883. En. Astoriai?: In your published report of the proceedings of the coun cil, at its last meeting, which appears in your issue of to-day it appears that Councilman Taylor's resignation was accepted and that he then placed in nomination. Mr. J. W. Hume. I take it fur granted that I am the council man rof erred to by the name of Tay lor, as I know of no other person of that name who has been recently a member of the council, and when 1 retired from tho council I made no nomination whatever of any person as my successor. Tho charter provides that tho common council shall fill va cancies, and when my resignation was accepted I was no longer a member of that body. Had I been I should have had no objection to nominating Mr. Hume, as I consider him competent and a man who is interested in the growth and development of our city. Yours, etc., FfiANK J. TA.TI.OB. Saiiisg Directions- CSt. T. Davis, LigUt House Inspcc-1 tfr for the 13th district ivuio tho fol- Uiiijj hct v.e received by last evening mat!. In the s.mth channel of the Colum- bin there is twenty fe-t at hiw title. ! Sailing DirecUuns Brin Capo Dia- .lpp'uutmoiit lighthouse XiU and itoer for it; "a hen Point Adam liijhthouHo hears ENEJE yon should bo ui with whistling buoy; from it hUcr NNE, which carries you paat the inner b.-.r buoy, also No. 1 and No. 3 cm the middle sands, leaving the black buoy3 on the port hand. t After passing Ztfo. S change course to ky E leaving the red buoy No. 2, Clctsop Spit, on the starboard hand t and steer for the wreck of tho Great Republic. Tho buoys, from the bar buoy to No. 2, are placed as near in line as possible, and show a narrow channel, as they are placed nearly in the channel. Tho buoys are about three-quarters of a mile apart. After leaving No. 2, Clatsop Spit, the sail ing directions are the same as for the old south channel to Astoria. The whistling buoy heretofore moor ed off the north channel has been re moved, and is now moored off the south channel. From it Cape Disap pointment lighthouse bears NiE, dis tant five miles. Point Adams light house beat-3 ENEiE, distant fivo and one-third miles. ENTRAKCK TO OKAV'a UAEEOR Thero is 20 feet of water on tho bar at low water. Sailing directiens: Bring the lone tree on tho south end of Point Brown to bear NE, Jthen steer for it until tho house on the north end of Point Hanson bears NE, When up with this bearing you should see the outer bay buoy black and white in eif.ht fathoms of water. Pass close to it, then steer N by E for the inner bay buoy. You should keep the mound on the first land back of Point Brown on the right side of tho first broad depression in tho trees on Point Brown. This range will bring you to the inner bar buoy, in five fathoms of water. If the buoy can not bo seen in rough water, yuii will soon find six fathoms; then steer NEiE with Point HanBon just open on tho starboard bow. between No. 2 and No. 1 buoys. If they cannot be seen, tho north and south breakers are a very good guide. When up to Point Hanson, run close to it, within 150 yards, in six fathoms of water. From hero steer NEN for the red buoy, No. 4, otf Whitcomb flats. Give it a berth of 100 yards, and. then steer for Simpson's saw mill, a little open on the starbo.ird bow. At low tide the flats are dry. Fourteen feet can be taken to Simpson's saw mill from buoy No. 4. The tide in tho channel runs from two to six miles an hour, and in 'steering the course great care should be taken to observe the direction and strength of tho current. On either side of the line between tho bar buoys, tho bottom is lumpy and irregular. As this bar is subject to frequent changes, it should not be attempted by a stranger without a pilot.

He made hi3 first money buying pine lands. He was a practi cal lumberman. He would go off prospecting, find out all the good sections, and then, when there were public salos of lands he would know whit to buy. So well was this under stood, that a sharp New York firm of land buyen concluded to utilize Mr. Sawyers private information, by bid ding all his land away from him. At the next sale at Oshkosh, Mr. Sawyer found that when he started to bid on a lot, it would be run right up on him. Ho stopped after one or two efforts and went out. Ho returned in a moment and resumed bidding. The New York men bid against him all day, beating him on every bid, captur ing thousands of acres. Thoy did not go near their lands for some years, until Oshkosh had grown to bo quite a city and Senator Sawyer to be a very rich mau. They all came to Oshkosh then, and as they neared there they felt ven happy over the way they outwitted Sawver. He fi nally invited them all to lus house, gave them a good dinner, and formally forgave them for getting the start of him. Tho next morning after their arrival, Senator Sawyer invited them to his house after they had inspected their land. Ho wanted them to stay and make a real old-fashioned visit, but they never came. Senator Saw yer never saw them again. They is co7ered that Mr. Sawyer had arranged with a friend, as soon as he discovered their game at the public sale, to bid upon th good lots, while he (Sawyer) put in bids on all marsh and water he could find. Not a single foot of the purchase made by the New York people was good for anything hut a duck pasture. hx. "BEsT OF ALL." Dr. R. V. Pieece, Buffalo, N.
