Attention is directed to the adver tisement ot A. M. Johnson & Co., reference to Neville & Co. 'a twine, in John Hagen, who was injured by being run over by a loaded truck last Monday was resting easy yesterday afternoon. Messrs. Bowlby, Fulton and Tuylor went up on the Wide West yesterday afternoon to atteud the supreme court at Salem. A. Booth arrived from Chicago on yesterday's steamer. He contemp lates remaining about two weeks and will then take a trip to Europe. The last number of the Polaris has a well written article on "The sea-girt shore,"' where the joys of summer travel on the Columbh are attractively set forth. We are in receipt of a beautiful chart "with the compliments of the N. y. Life Ins. Co.," in relation to the genealogy of Washington, and the origin of the Stars And Stripes. Lswiston is going to send a deto nation to Walla Walla to interview Mr. Yillard in rofarence to the Ore gon Short Line. We presume the conversation will bo carried on in English. The captain of the Gen. CusUr brought tho Magnet around from the scene of her mishap yesterday after noon, and now she lies at the Main street wharf. Her owners have not showed up yet. Joseph Smith is building a large sawmill on Tiliamook bay. Joseph will bo remembered as the gentleman who represented Clatsop County and voted for Mrs. Duniway for United States Senator last Fall. Spoiled the Pun. "Ycr miasm all the fun," said a man yesterday, whose lack of hand kerchief facilities was compensated by the careless grace with uhich he wiped his blooming nose on his shirt sleeve. We were heading for tho 0. R. & N. dock where the Oregon was momentarily expected, but on our coatless informer slating that there was a prize light iu progress "in the other end of :own" we concluded the steamer would wait, especially as our informer insisted 'yon just ought to see 'em nuiiltn' each other," and lie spat upon the ground with ve hemence. Just our lock; h we sighted the priztf ring, on the ground wherr? the A. B. Field was built, Clark Luijjhry hove in sight mid the 150 who had ctne to see fail play scattered. Tin exponents of the manly art of self-defence h!ji ceased operations and disregarding all mg gestions i4 finish upset all theMarnuis of Quuensbiiry rules by "lighting out.' The chief grabbed one of them who said he didn't know anything about it, but as he thad no shirt on, it was deemed circumstantial evidence. The other was also caught and both were put in jail, a charge of fighting beiug preferred against them. They were brought before Judge Winton at two o'cleck: in answer to the interrogatory "guilty or not guilty," the one first alluded to Lewis Sternberg began a lecture on the necetsity of taking one's own part when his antagonist made use in conversation of sundry metaphors concerning alleged descent trom ca nine maternity. "One hundred dol Iars, or twenty days in tho city jail," was tho judical comment, which, was repeated in tho case of Joe Stevens, Mr. Sternberg's competitor for tlie belt. It is singular that the chief of police cwi't let men alono when they are amusing themselves. True, thoy were stripped to the waist and illus trating iu their person the lofty im pulses that inspired their practical benevolence, but yet it does seem as though the natural exuberance of joyous youth ahould be given sway. Ordinance No. 413 is spoken of in the most disrespectful manner consequent upon yesterday's stoppago of sport. Foreign Salmon Notes. The London special correspondent of the American Grocer states in sub stance as follews: The 2500 cases of salmon offered at auction the 9th tilt, met with little support. Bids opened at 15s. and stopped at 20s. It was announced that 22. was the lowest price acceptable, at which the lot vai bought in. Tim goods were drawn against 2-ls. c. f. and i., consignees expecting to repay themrelve with an advance, bnt are out, of couwe, f r landing charges, rent, insurance, etc., to say nothing of their commission. TJuh is not encouraging to packers at the opining of a new season. It sh-iultl be strong reasdn fir packers refusing the extravjgant demands of fishermen. With Columbia river s-il-niou d.wn to 22s. per case iu London in Mnrcli,prav how can packers expect ti -t that price f. o. b. Cob.mbia rner in May." The 1. h. c o. t. A. G. seems to be writing in the interest of the bear?. ' Tiu Grocer's Gazette, of London ' says: "There is! fair trade passing, .-nd if the weather were somewhat more favorable vould doubtless cause u cap ital busine.. The Spirit of the Dawn, with 31,000 cases of Fraser river salm on, hxs arrived here this week. Tho quality of the shipment is good, some parcels being particularly so, and it is satisfactory to notice the marked im provement in quality over earlier ar rivals from this river. Some large parcels have been bought on specula tive account at secret prices. The correspondent of the Gazette, writing from Liverpool says: A much better feeling prevails in our market, and Beveral large parcels have changed hands at current prices. The country demand is again setting in, and in such a manner that shows to a cer tainty that the grocers have allowed their stocks to completely disappear, thinking to buy to better advantage, but they hae now been forced to give way, and there is a general and steady demand now in progress."

The Astoriax claims its city is the second in size of Oregon towns.

The arrival of the ocean and river steamers simultaneously make lively times on the dock. Yesterday an unusually large crowd got off the Oregon and about the time tho human stream began to lesien, the Wide Wat came flying down from Portland. On the Oregon yesterday there came a young man direct from Sweden, a brother of the Immanuel Johansen who was accidentally drown ed last Monday. It was a sad meeting to find tho brother whom he had not seen for seven years lying cold in death. E. C. Holden, city assessor, is desirous that city tax payers would handin their assessment returns. The assessment book must now be made up, aud property holders will save themselves much time and trouble in having to appear before the board of equalization if they now hand in their own statements. Tho Seattle Post-Intelligencer is a constant source of surprise to us. It presents a full telegraphic report every morning, more than any other paper on the coast for the size of the place where it is published and makes no particular fuss about it. It is a splendid exponent of tho enterprise and goaheadatiTeness of our northern neighbors. About ene o'clock yesterday morning a fire broke out in the saloon of Link & Blake, at Ranier, and burned the building and contents. The building which was worth $1,000 was owned by Dean Blanchard; the stock and fixtures were valued at 1,500; all was a total loss; the cause of the fire is unknown. -AT- Sheriff 0' Neil's Bankrupt Store, ISAACS & STTMMERFEELD.

"Scxr Rich I21ooi. The body of the late Immanuel Johansen was found yesterday morn ing about fifty yards from whero he fell in. A careful examination of the body resulted in finding no external marks of violence on the body, and the inference is that the poor fellow, fell on some lumber and rolled into the water in a stunned condition. It is certain that he made no attempt to shoot himself and almost as certain that it was a case of accidental drown ing. Under the circumstances the coroner did not consider it necessary to put the county to tho expense of holding an inquest. The funeral will take place from the Episcopal church at two o'clock this afternoon. The use of Oregon B'ood Purifier. Yesterday's Oregonian contained no reference whatever to Mr. Villard. Tho iVcir said: "Henry Villard, ac companied by one of his staff, took an inspection trip about the Ainsworth wharf yesterday afternoon. Ho seem ed surprised at tho quiet appearance of the dock, but was told by one of the employes that Monday was always a alack day." The bell tower was placed on rollers yesterday and the structure glided across Squemocqua street, to its new site in tho rear of the city hall. The change removes a prominent landmark from the north side of the street, the site of which will bo soon covered by substantial buildings erect ed by C&pt, Flarel. It is now about x years since that gentleman gave permission to have the bell tower erected there rent free till such time as he km ready to build. The struc ture cost $1,200, including the bell and ixs well served tho use for which it wns attended. The cost of the roadway to Gniontown, past the Cutting Packing Co., to connect Concomly street with the county road to Smith's point it about $1,G00; of this the C. P. Co. pay about $400. leaving $1,200 for the public. Of this latter sum about $G00 lmbeen subscribed without condit ions attached. Some of this has been collected but will be refunded unless arrangements can be made to to throw the road open to the public. This is a clear case of "the greatest good to the greatest number," and should not be allowed to lapse. At La Center on Lewis river, one day last week a fisherman from this city while fishing for trout, with salmon roe for bait, hooked and land ed a salmon of the siiverside variety, weighing 14 pounds. The hotel keeper there said it was the largest hsu he had seen taken there with a hook. Three more salmon were hookod, bit succeeded in breaking away from the lack of proper tackle. It is generally understood that salmon eat nothing after entering the river, but from tho above incident it appears that the silver side must be made an exception. Oregonian. Commenting on an item which is going the rounds -rclativo to the alleg ed quality of Walla Walla wheat shipped on board the M. S. Gregory, from the Sound, the Oregonian justly says: ihe writers knew it to be un just when they wrote, for Walla Walla wheat will comparo favorably with that shipped by California, and the cargo of the Gregory was a fair shipment. The ship experienced ter rible weather, causing leaking, and the pumps becoming choked, were useless. As the crew could not leave the vessel they were compelled to re main on board, the water in the hold constantly beeoming foul, as it will with almost asy cargo, California wheat not excepted. This foul air or vapor the crew were obliged to suffer from for days. I. J.

Books and Stationery, We learn of the death in Stock holm, Sweden, on tho 9th of March, of Pehr Thomason, at tho age of sixty- five, a well knoxvn Swedish writer; his name, n doubt, is familiar to many of our readers, who, on hearing of his death, will recall tho literature of their childhood, the pure and simple stories of peasant life. Though but of local fame, around his name shall ever clus ter holy memories, and on him will the honor be bestowed of having laid the foundation of literary taste among the Swedish people. To the pure moral tone of his novels, portraying tho beauties of home life among the dwellers in his native land, coming years will be indebted for the happi ness and liberty on Scandinavian soil. Tho Fulda is the namo of a new ship lately built in Scotland for ser vice between New York and Bremen. She is a magnificent vessel of 5,124 tons gross, built by John Elder & Co., of Glasgow. The vessel lately went on a run extendiug overate hours, tho trip being prolong id from Cumbrac Light to Corsewall Light, beyond the mouth of Loch Riyn, aud back again. Ovor that great stretch of sea, and tho time mentioned with the tide against her both ways, she attained, says En ginecring, the extraordinary speed of 17.803 knots, or upward of 20 j statute miles par hour, a speed which has never yet been exceeded by any other great ocean steamer, with the excep tion of the Alaska aud the Stirling, which were also built in Fairfield Shipyard.
