At Arndt & Ferhens over four hundred iron crates for holding cooking salmon are being made. At the Astoria Iron Worts there is a large crowd of busy workers in the foundry, machine and boiler shop3. In one apartment we foand men setting up some ingenious contrivances for canning salmon. In these machines the salmon slides down a sort of trough,at the bottom of which a knifo slices off just enough to fill a can which is on a lateral spindle to the left. As the knife cuts the fish a solid punch a littlo leas iu diameter than the can drives the quantum sufficit of fish into the can, and the work goes on. About twenty of these machines are now building. They are a success. With two or three chinamen to keep it from running away with the fish in its mouth, ono of these can-fillers will do as much in a day as twenty men in the old fashion. They cost about 800 apiece and are marvels of ingenious mechanism. The Occidental.

How Parents, byaLacIi or Precaution nudCnrc, are Responsible for, the Death or Their Children. (Camden, 3fc, Herald,) The moral and legal responsibility of parents, in the care of tlieir children is, fortunatelv. attracting the serious atten tion of the better portion of the entire country. The many instances ot child beating, oppression, and other forms of cmeltv winch have come to light, de mand'that something be done; and it is gratifying to know that the people are becemim: thoroughly aroused. Whether the cruelty be in the form of physical violence or physical neglect matters not , the principle in bom cases is mc same. The man or woman who neglects his or her own health may be pardoned, as the consequences fa J. upon the individual alene: but the parent or cuardiau who permits the inroads of disease upon the innocent ones dependent upon him for protection, is criminally liable in the sight of God, however, he may appear in the eyes of men. There are, however, parents that intend to care for their children, but, who through carelessness or the urgency of other duties, permit them to become the innocent victims of disease. Such parents may be guiltless of intentional wrong, but the disastrous result? upon their children are jubt as great These arc truths which must be mani fest to every worthy parent and espe cially in a vicinity where the unknown effects of the atmosphere, the water and the general tendency to malaria arc so great. There are many families in this locality who have been called upon to mourn untimely losses, even when the greatest care was exercised; but the ex perience of one only will be given: It is that of the late W. O. Thomas. The children were all most promising, but for some unexplained reason theirhealth and strength seemed to gradually lessen until their friends feared they were the victims of consumption. One by one, they sickened ami died until three had departed and two of the surviving brothers were also taken ill. Their names were llermon and Edward, ller mon, however, seemed the stronger of the two; and while his youugcr brother was confined to the house constantly, and to his bed much of the time, ller mon was able to be about but in so weak a condition that he had no desire to plav. Eddie's symptoms were terrible ! lie found difficulty in retaining food upon his stomach, was restless and irri table, and out of Ins head frequently. At various times three different physi cians visited him: and each one told his friends he coukl notlivc. lie lmaily got so low that death was only consid ered the matter of a few days. At that critical time his elder brothers, aroused almost to the pitch of desperation by the three deaths that had so recently oc curred, and the other one staring them in the face, resolved to take the case into their own hands. They accord ingly did so, and secured a remedy that was men uemg universally ubtu, ami began giving it to htm. Its egect at first was slight, but any improvement was consideied a good symptom. By de grees his strength returned; he was able to eat with a relish, then walk about the house; aud finally he regained complete health and strength. The boy was so reioiccd over his recovery that, accom panied by the editor of this paper, he went betore Justice Charles K. Miller and made oath to the facts of his sick ness as above related, and that he was restored to perfect health by the use of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure. Now, Edward Thomas's s parents, while they lived, undoubtedly, provided faithfully for the wants of all their children; and yet the seeds of disease had taken deep root Their care in one direction had been counteracted by un known carelessness in another. Their love was sincere, but wholly misdi rected. They should have known that children are just as liable to kidney and liver diseases as grown up people; and that the fatality of Bright's disease of the kidnevs is lust as creat amonff little children as with adults. This is a seri ous subject Hereditary traits: the after consequences of measles and scar let fever, diphtheria and the passing troubles which so easily become chronic, all demand me greatest care ami cau tion. No case of cholera infantum, measles, scarletma, or diphtheria was ever virulent while the child's kidneys and liver were healthy. It would shn plvbe an impossibility. These import ant organs of the body are just forming within the child and growing with its growth; and they can be trained to truth and uprightness. The importance of carefully watching the slightest troubles of the child, and especially those ffaecting the kidneys and liver, cannot be too strongly em phasized. Children respond so readily to the proper remedies and are so sensi tive to disease, that it is a sin to deprive them of one at the risk of Incurring the other. By a judicious treatment these essential 'organs can be developed so that a strong constitution, able to resist the inroads of disease through coming years. .hall be the result It m ARRIVAL OF DIRECT FROM AT- C.

It seems as though the great storm predicted by Wiggins, is going to strike Astoria. During the last week, at least seventeen young, good-looking, mar riageable men have been at A. M. John son's Crockery Store, inspecting their stock and pricing crockery, with a view of getting ready for housekeeping. If a storm is not in transit towards Astoria, a squall is, at least, and the young ladies had better be prepared for it. If they will call at our store during the week, our gentlemanly clerk will take pleas ure in showing them the nice sets of dishes, etc., that their young men have already picked out Of course we don't want you to give us away, as we have promised the young men not to let you into the secret; but of course you will want to see what kind of crockery you are going to use, and as it is all here we would like to have you inspect it.

The death rate was about 15 to the thousand. Were all parts of the union as healthy as Oregon and Wash ington Territory the death rate ,would be only one-seventh, what it is. But perhaps it is just as well. At the annual meeting of the Portland Seamen's friend society, ac cording to the Standard, Chaplain Stubbs made favorable mention of tho bethel work at Astoria among fisher men, seamen and others by Rev. J. UcCormac. He says a home and bethel are greatly needed here to con tract in some measure the evils prac ticed on seamen by wicked people in this city. The captain of the schooner Hare Plant, which arrived at Liverpool February 1st from St. John's, with a cargo of seal oil, reports having en countered severe weather. During a terrific gale on January 16th, he filled a large canvas bag with seal oil and towed it astern of tho .vessel, which, was running before the wind. It had the effect of rendering the waves almost powerless, and to this precaution the captain attributes the safety of kk Ye1.
