ASTORIA, OREGON: TUESDAY- AUGUST 28,1883 The Standard aays that a Port land restaurant has been arrested. They havo a psychonieter in Salem. His terms are two dollars a psych. The General of the Army. The Griscdalc goes on berth here in about two "weeks, to load for Liver pool. See adv. C. Leinenweber return ud on State yesterday from the Knights Templar conclave which he attended as a member of Oregon Commandery. The first pace of the Seattle i Evening Herald is an excellent ad vertisement of the community, and is worth ten times what it cost the ad vertisers as a general index to that enterprising city. Freddie T., infant son of Sir. and Mrs. D. H. Caswell, died yester day morning. The funeral will take place from their residence at twelve o'clock to-day. The steamer Sum will leave at one o'clock v. m., for Clatsop where the body will be interred. Col. F. J. Parker, editor and proprietor of the Walla Walla Daily Statesman arrived on yesterday's steamer, on his return from the con clave at San Francisco. He says the Bay city fairly outdid itself, and was enthusiastic over the reception the city accorded its visiters. J N. P. Johansen, of upper Astoria, is desirous to close out his stock of merchandise before he goes east. In order effectually to dispose of it and for conveniences of sale, he has re moved the balance of his stock to E. C. Holden's auction rooms, where it will be sold at auction on Thursday next. Seo ad. The 'Longshoremen had a big time at Knappa last Sunday. They had engaged the Clara Parker, but Bhe was not on hand, for which the smoke was to blame. She left Port land on Saturday evening intending to be at the dock in good season Sun day morning, out after setting to Co lumbia City it was impossible to pro ceed. The crowd at the wharf was temporarily disappointed, but tha managers were equal to the occasion, and speedily engaged the Fleetwood, a scow was taken in tow on each side, and one of the largest excursions that ever started from Astoria, started for Knappa. The day passed without accident. The Astoria band furnished music. Were our country to get into trou ble with foreign foes a million armed men could be ready for duly, and the unassuming old man who stood on tho deck of the Oregon yesterday after noon, would be their leader. General Sherman has been seen so much and interviewed so often that it bores the old fellow to interview him. As the vessel came alongside the dock where we could get a better look at him we noticed that his age was beginning to show on him. He has the same t twinkle in his eye, the same grim way ne of cloftinjr his jaw that ho had fifteen years ago, but the essence of time is dyeing his hair white and lie doesn't move so spry as he did. He had on a plain suit of black, a cloak was thrown on his shoulders and :i well- worn Kossuth hat was canted over on tho side of his head. He looked at the crowd and they returned tho com pliment. As soon as the gang plank was laid, dishing Post No. 14, of the Grand Army of the Republic filed on board, and walking up wore introduced by Capt. -Merry- man, the post commander. the old general's face brightened up and we doubt if any other form of reception would have given him as much genu ine pleasure as did that simple little act of courtesy on the part of the Post. The fact that the steamer onlj .stopped for a short time precluded all possibility of an extended demon stration, and when she blew her whistle and swung seawardtho general went aft and scrutinized the shore as though deciding just where he would station his headquarters in case of need. It was his last look at the Co lumbia in an oflicial capacity, as on the 1st of October he will resign the position of general of the army, tho highest militaty position in the United States, after holding it four teen years, and turn its weighty re sponsibilities and heavy emoluments over to a man who was heard from on tho Shenandoah a score of years ago Phil Sheridan. Dense smoke hung over land and sea Sunday morning, and the pun gent odbr of burning fir filled the air. The heat was oppressive and the sun's rays burned. From the heights above the city nothing could be seen but a uniform expanse of dark blue, shaded to a gray towards the ocean by the fog At dusk a breeze blew aside the smoke and the stars shone, but by eleven the east wind sent it back again thicker than ever, and all day yesterday the sun shone like a ball of burnished copper, and the streets and houses were filled with smoke. A gentleman, for whose opinion we have a high re gard, says that this weather will con tinue till September Cth, that on tliat day rain will begin to fall aud will continue falling at regular intervals till February '84. The First Waybill.? On Sundaj', Aug. 20, 1883, was is sued the first way bill on freight from Astoria over the Northern Pacific Itailroad. it is Form 13, Waybill No. 1. The consignor is the Astoria Pack ing Co., the consignees are P. Duff & Son, Pittsburgh, Pent)., and the freight specified in the green and purple doc umcnt, which is worthy of framing, is COO cases Columbia River salmon, and 25 cases Chilkat salmon from far-off Alaska. The freight thus way-billed went to Portland on the Mountain Queen yes terday morning, and on the 30th with other Astoria product will start across the continent. Since our latest concerning the salmon train, A. Booth fc Co. and xnomes cc lvnowies nave oacn signi fied their intention of sending 000 cases of salmon. As 300 cases make a car load of Columbia river salmon, it will be see that to make up ; through salmon train of imposing proportions will not require even or dinary effort. There will be proba bly eighteen or twenty cars, and the outside will have a wealth of gorgeous imagery.depictcd upon it commensu rate with the value and importance of the freight the inside shall con tain. From the Walla Walla Union of ths 22d we learn that the gold spike that Mr. Yillard will drive on Sept. 8th, will not be allowed to remain, but "will bo pulled out again." We were afraid some too enterprising pa per would give publicity to that fact. In a confidential letter that Mr. Vil lard sent us about tho 4th of July, he said as much, but suggested that nothing be said about it, and here the Walla Walla Uuio7i man goes and gives tho whole thing away. We sin cerelj hope that no more disclosures of intention be made till after the event of the 8th prox. has taken placo. Such premature announce menu tend to destroy public con fidence in. the judgment of newspaper men. Erery one has heard that story about Joe Grimaldi, the great clown. Joe, when in London, was tiken sick and consulted the leading physicians, being an entire stranger to the faculty. After consultation the Escu lapians informed Joseph that he was suffering from melancholia, and the best thine he could do would be to go to Astley's and see Grimaldi. "But I am Grimaldi," said the clown. The doctors were nonplussed. Yet though every one has heard that ancient joke illus trating hew deceptive are appearances, net all know that last week an Asto rian whose soul had sickened o'er the hwvine wave, went to Portland for medical advice. The doctor recom mended ."exercise." The patient looked at him. "Have you ever been in ABtoriat" ho askod. "N-no," said the physician. "Well," said our ailing friend, "I live in Astoria, in the second story, and I have to pack every drop of water we use up those stairs, and you tap; to me about 'exer cise.' " first-class oyster opener wanted at The Hill Case. In the circuit court yestorday came up the Hill case on a writ of review. Sometime last March George Hill was arrested for having women on the floor of his saloon. He was sentenced in the police court to pay a fine of fif ty dollars and forfeit his license. The matter was never settled nor is it set tled now, but J udgo Bennett made ruling yeBlerday that has an import ant bearing on this much talked of ic The Judge in substance ruled that the police judge had a right un der tho ordinancc,to fine Hill, but that he had no rights, to declare his li cense forfeited; that if that right ex isted it was a matter fur the city council to take action in, and that the power to revoke the hcenso could not be delegated to the police judge. From every flag pole yesterday the stars and stripes fluttered in honor of General Sherman, the geuer al of the army, who for the second time in three years was at Astoria. There will be :v meeting of the Astoria Chamber of Commerce at half past seven o'clock this evening. Spe cial and important business is on hand and a full attendance is desirable. E. C.

Astoria: The preliminary survey of the As toria aud Forest Grove Railroad is rapidly approaching completion, only about two miles remain to be located and that will be finished this week. A brief sketch of the route may be of interest. The line leaving Astoria bears up Young's River to Klaskanine and up the latter to Fish Hawk sum mit, having at this point an elevation of 1.2G0 feet, thence to the Xehalem river, elevation 450 feet, up the Xe halem 00 miles (the valley rising 4 to feet per mile) to Castor creek, up j Castor 2 miles to Gales creek summit, elevation 1,013 feet, then down Gales i creek toward Forest Grove. Twenty miles of the line crossing ish Hawk summit, and .1 miles on I Gales creek summit will be heavy work, the balance of the line can be easily constructed. The manner in which this survey has been pushed through has been credit to the O. & C. R. R. and their efficient corps of engineers and the work has been done most thor oughly. The working hours of the party ere from half-past six in the morn ing to about 7 at night, and then two or three hours in tho camp office by lamp light, and a good deal of extra work on Sundays. The farmers on the Nehalem are very jubilant over the prospect of a railroad and will do all in their power hasten the completion of the line. The mapping aud final estimating is being done here, aud we expect to have tho work ready for delivery in Portland by the 2d of September, that will be the end of the preliminary survey, and then Astoria and -forest Grove will be watching and waiting for the final location. How long no one knowa, but it is scarcely possible anything will be done until tho last spike is driven on the Northern Pa cific. E. C. C. WEEK LAST OF TIT IC AUCTION SALE!

Astokiax: In your issue of Aug. 2Cth, you re fer to the arrest of the Parker House Occident and machine shops for viola tion ot above ordinance, and the re fusal of F. D. Winton, city attorney, to enter complaint against the pro prietors. I would like to ask why I should be any more guilty or liable to tine under the ordinance than any one else, and why I should be fined $50 and costs, and other restaurant and saloon men onlv 10 and 20 for the same offense. Jf it was necessary tor a machine shop to run to re pair that steamer, it was also necessary for the men to eat. 1 have regular boarders working on boats, wharves,. etc., that eat their meals between iz and a. ic seems to me an act of injustice, to compel me to obey ordinances, that for private and political reasons are not enforced against others. It looks like petty pite work. 2VIy understanding of the ordinance is, that it applios to all kinds of business, while the city at torney s understanding of it seems to be that it applies only to JefFs restau rant. Perhaps the city attorney may bo able to throw some light on the subject. Very respectfully, R. L. Jeffky. CHURCH DIRECTORY. (Shack Ciii'itm Uolv communion first Sunday of every month.
