ASTORIA, OKEGON: SUNDAY AUG UST , 1SSB Jfolliing Succeeds Like Success. The truth of the above is strik ingly exemplified b the coming in triumph of H. Villard mid his associates to drive the last spike of the Northern Pacific Railroad. With him will come several of Wo ,n fm-morlv t.,l- rtlonc.iro , , ULl,J"'S j thing and everybody connected with it. Among these is the as- tute Rums Hatch of Wall street, Eleven vears ago, iu ridicule of ; , . , I mk. iwaw, fe""" sal": j The business of the road will be larger, perhaps, during its con- struction than after its completion, as all the materials necessary to the building of the unfinished por- tions will have to be transported I , . . .i i I over those sections oi tne line ai- ready laid and equipped, and these alone will yield an immense rove- nue. After its completion the traffic will consist of government supplies, mails, females and other military stores; of the local carry- in"- trade of the present populous i-Aioi WiWimr on the North Pole; of the bulk of the business now done by the steamers plying on the waters of the Suez Canal, New North Sea, Dismal Swamp, Dutch Gap. and other streams adiacent and tributary to the road, and of the entire trade of the Pie- gan Indians, consisting chiefly of bear's oil, hare's oil, and other prodncts of the Soil. All the great through business from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast is bound to pass over this line, be- ...hi .1 1 . . ,1 , I cause it win oe uic snortesi inai can be built, free from grades, curves, stopping places, ami other obstructions its entire length, and Stnm-e as it mav seem, a wavs. rnr.f of nnnnlR. nuniberod bv mil- lions, and supposed to be descen dants of the original Aztecs, have ii k a:..,-.a t.; , i , 7 , - "Ldcir of America, and lljcir car- rying trade will sjeedily consti-1 tute a business greater and far more profitable than was ever dreamed of by Mr. Vanderbilt, Sir Porton Aieto, busier Schuj'ler, or James .1 unior Fisk. This road unites t!ie Tom Bigbee ri-er with the source of the Nile, and will by a lateral branch, tapping the Bos ton, ilartlord aim it,rie, secure the trade of this "Dead .Loch to Alaska. As a line it is 500 miles shorter from its eastern to its west ern terminus than it is vice versa, and brings New York and Liver pool 1,4.00 miles nearer togetlier than they ever were before or will be again (vide map and circulars of Northern Pacific .railroad), Branch lines or "feeders' will be built froni the main trunk, east- ward, westward, northward and "sou'-sou'west by southward," stopping at all the important noint on both hetnisoheres sroinir and returning, so as to drain the I entire known world, and render vviliifilocs tlio nt?wr t'Kllrrtstrlc nil llif I f,oe of a. giobo. rroctor Knott, who was elected governor ot Kentucky on use Olli of this month, immortalized him-1 opposing the road and humorously jibing1 the pretensions of Duluth. Duluth flourishes, however, and has sent word to the newly elected governor of the sour-mash region that if he will come to that "zen ith cit3' of the unsaltcd seas," he can be elected mayor of that muni- i-. -t . i i ..1.-1. cipaniy. xii liic spuccii iu which we refer, which was delivered in the House r i- i...: ol xeprtibeuiaii ca, twelve years ago, Proctor Knott in the course oi his remarks said that after an arduous search he had discovered Duluth upon the map. He went on to say: If gentlemen will examine it,thev will not find Duluth in the center of the map, but represented in the center oi" a series of concentric circles one hundred miles apart, and some of them as much as four thousand miles in diameter, em bracing alike in their tremendous sween the fragrant savannas of the sunlit South, and the eternal soli tudes of snow that mantle the ice bound North. How these circles were produced is, perhaps, one of those primordial mysteries that the most skuiiui paieoiogiM, wui never UU U.U1U LU V..IJIU1II. 1JUI lV 5c ci c Tiilof-li !c frrtnsinni'li i ' ftntrnl rlnr fnr 1 nm tnlfl IV crentlemen who have been so reck less of their own personal safety as to venture away into those aw ful regions where Duluth is sup posed to be. that it is so exactly m the center of the visible universe that the skv comes down at pre cisely the same distance all around it. I find by reference to this map that Duluthis situated somewhere near the "Western end of Lake Su perior, but as there is no dot or otlifr marl; liHiicatmrr lie ovnot i .- r ii location, l am unauie to say wnetner ii is aciuanv conuncu to , - it,,, anv particular spot, or whether "it io "incf luinrr -lrnnnfl thorn Inrvco " JS USt lying aroutlU tliore loose. 1 really cannot tell whether it is f tl,M tt,ol o;..r. intellectual frostwork, more intan- "ible than the rose-tin ted clouds of a. summer sunset; one of those airy exhalations of the spectator's brain, which I am told are ever fttttinir in front of the towns and chips along these lines of railroad j built with government subsidies, '. iuiiHg tlie unwary settler as the mirage of the desert lures the fam ished traveller on, and ever on. until it fades away in the darken-; ing horizon, or whether it is a real, J bona fide substantial oitv, all "staked off," with the lots marked wilh lhclr OWIierS liaUlCS like that proud commercial metropolis recently discovered on the desirable shores of San Domingo But, however that may be, j am satisfied Duluth is there, or there- a,b.0Ut' tm. !'

Now, I have always been under the impression, as 1 presume other gentlemen hve, that m tne region around Lake Sujerior it was cold enough lor at least nine months in the year to freeze the smoke stack off a locomotive.
