Prank l'lcrcp Shot und Fatally TTonndtd. (Sl'KCIAL TO THE ASTOUIAX.) Poetland. Dec. 0. 1683. A dispatch just received from St. Helen's says that Frank Pierre, a young man employed as superintendent of a dairy, the propertj-of David A. Clouingor, near St. Helens, was shot and fatally wounded to day by Clomnger. 1'iorce and his employer Had quarrelled over the summer's yield of hav, and there had also been some misunderstanding concerning the amount due for wages from Ulonmger for work that 'ierce had done on a barn. The ball entered the throat and came out under the left shoulder. SECOND SISTATC1I. Pierce was brought here this evening on the Manzanillo. He is suffering severely froni profuse internal hemorr- nage. xuysicians say ne cannot recover. Cloninger is a wealthy farmer and is well known all along the Columbia river. JJoc.

Pursuant to a call, there was a citizens' meeting in Headington's shop at 7:30 o'clock yesterday evening. The meeting was called to order by J. C. Ross, who stated the object of the meoting was to nominate a candidate for mayor and a candidate for councilman. W. B. Head ington was elected chairman and Aug. Danielson secretarv. The hall was full. and from the appearance of some of the oters it was evident that there was tun ahead. The chairman decided that no one but residents of the Stcond ward had a right to vote when nominations for mayor came up. Nominations being declared in order, J. "W. Hume was placed in nomination, also v. Morgan, Jr.. likewise J as. lurK. It was then decided that nominations close, and that the nominees be voted for by bpllot. By this time there was a good manv strance faces in the room, such faces as one will usuallv see in the fore castle of a vessel. Geo. Wheeler and Walter Kobb were appointed tellers, and thev stood in a corner to receive the vote's as they were cast. The safeguards against reixjaters were not very strict, and after twenty-five or thirty votes had been cast, J. M. Ulsen concluded that a little challenging would do no harm, so taking his stand alongside the tellers he peremptorily challenged the votes of sev eral Gentlemen, who appeared much sur prised at such action. One hardy mari ner with an unmistakable twitch to his trousers declared that he was an Ameri can citizen, but being unable to state the time of residence that ho had en joyed in the pleasant pastimes that leisure alfords, was prevented from exercising his prerog ative, much to his disgust. When evervone was tired of voting tho ballots were counted, with the fol lowing result: J. W. Hume, 33: D. Mor gan. Jr.. C; Jamas Turk, 32. On motion J. W. Hume's nomination was made unanimous. Nominations for councilman being in order, the matter went on more regular ly. Thomas Dealy and T. A Orcutt were placed in nomination with the following result: Dealy, 35; Orcutt, 22. Thomas Dealy was declared the nominee for councilman for the second ward. The meeting then adjourned. The Twelve O'clock Ordinance. At the time the city council had under discussion the drafting of an ordinance closing all places of business, etc., at midnight, tho probability of the measure nassinc provoked a ereat deal of discus sion. Mayor Jlahn vetoed the ordinance alter its passage but the council passed the ordinance over his veto, und since then it has been one of the laws of the muni cipalty. The spirit and effect of an ordi nance like that must alwavs be taken in to account. It is argued that Astoria is not a little village of twenty or thirty families that could mutually agree to act in accordance with certain ideas, but is a city and a growing one. People get hungry and thirsty, and sleepy just the same whether it be 12 o'clock at noon or 12 o'clock at night, and it is a question whether sumptuary ordinances can ob- 8ent here, and placed in general circula tion, anu il is me general experience oi cities that it helps wonderfully to have money come from tho outside, from tran sients, from travel, etc, lhe community that exclusively trades among its mem bers is not, as comparisons go, as well supplied with the needful as one wherein greater latitude prevails. Of course the intent of the ordinance is well recognized and is sound in principle. As Paul has it: '"The letter killeth and the spirit giveth life." So it is in this instance. Could some way bo devised whereby the objectionable fea tures of the matter were removed while retaining the inherent intent, it would be a satisfactory solution of the problem The Hand Enoine. Qnite a number of the bo3's assembled at Rescue No. 2's engine house yesterday morning to give tho old hand engine a parting shake. Tho test took place at 11 o clock and was in every way satisfactory to Mr. Godley, who had been commissioned by the Inde pendence Fire company to buy the "ma sheen," if it worked well. He promptly engine Astoria ever had now goes to con tinue tne good worK at waepenuence. Tho price paid was 550, 150 feet of hose accompanying the engine, which will be shipped forthwith.

Reliable report comes to The Astobian from Hobsonville, Tillamook county that tho schooner Alpha, which left here two weeks ago last Saturday, is lost with all hands. Collins, Starr, and Gabrielsen. She was seen by the Queen of the Pacific tho evening of the day she left here, and the next day (Sunday) parties at Tilla mook saw her with sails set, trying to en ter: she got pretty well in, but when off Fuller's Point she broached to and went into the breakers. She drifted for two miles, and as well as the watchers at Hobsonville could make out had lost all sails and was badly stove, nothing was seen of her. but as her boats have come ashore at Tillamook, and tho beach is covered with wreck and damaged goods, the probability is that she is lost. The Alpha was a staunch little craft and was well known here, having plied between the Columbia river ind the southern coast. She was owned by Wm. Olsen, of Tillamook. Incoming Passenger..

Some time since a company was organized, under the title of Klatskanine Milling company, to acquire possession of large tracts of tim ber land in Columbia county and engage in the manufacture of lumber, etc. Two persons, named Brad) and Mahar, were engaged to go down and look over cer tain janus wnicu tne company desired to purchase. They were gone three days, and on coming back testified that they had been on every forty-acre tract in thirtv-hve quarter sections. This would necessitate an impossible amount of travel. Mahar weakened when an inves tigation was made, and acknowledged That ho had not visited all the land, but had formed an opinion regarding that which he had not seen from what ho had seen. A number of the claims taken up by the company have been cancelled at the local olhce, and the remainder are under consideration at the general office, and will probably also be cancelled, it seems as if the government is in earnest m regard to endeavoring to put a stop to tne irauus wmcn nave oeen perpeiraiea m securing timber lands.

Romantic Career of the President of the Northern I'sclfle Railroad. On a bright frosty morning late in the fall of 1853 a stout German youth hastily made his exit from the little University of Munich, Bavaria. He wore the con ventional tight-fittingsuitof tho German student. A cloth carpet-bag contained his wealth with the exception of a few : florins in his pocket and a stout walk-; iug stick in his hand. Heiurich Hiigard j was a bright youth, an npt scholar, had j passed through the elementary school of j Zweibrucken, the town of his nativity. I and the several classes of the Latin ! school, and finally had spent a year at a j French school at Pralzbourg, in Lor-; reiue. He terminated his pursuit of I knowledge by taking "French leave' of the University of Munich. School life had grown monotonous. He had entered l upon it at sir years of age. and twelve-1 years later had concluded to seek his for-! time. The vouth tramped to the home of : his father, who then occupied a judicial ; bench m the town ot zweibrucken. uitu fair show of meekness and contrition ' the son listened to tho anticipated chu- i sure and then coolly proposed that hi.- j father should settle upon linn a small fortune with which he desired to specu late in American cities. The rosult of this interview was that a few days later Heinrich Hiigard left the parental roof with sufficient funds to carry him across the ocean to a settlement m a remote : corner of Illinois, where an uncle had preceded him a year before and was in- agea in iarnimg. Heiurich. it is said, had left behind a hpnntiful French mniden.whoswaconaint- ance he had made while attending cjI- j lege at Jjorraiue, unu am aiep in em-ring upon the world uad been induced bv an ambition to become worthy of her hand. On .November , lo.vJ. the young man lauded in Castle Gjirdeu. The grandeur of the metropolis dazed him. Instead of going at once to Illinois he decided to try his fortune there. A year of misfor tunes and ill-luck, however, servc-d to Iter his imnd considerably, nitu a sinking heart he sought his relatives in the township of iielleville, bt. Clair county, Blinois, and there remained as a farm assistant for several years. During the long winter evenings Henry. as ho had now become known, umused himself bv corresponding for German papers at his old home. At last he secured a little nionev for his articles in a German paper in St. Louis; This was tho turning point in the career of the am bitious youth. He soon increased his knowledge of the English language b diligent study, and soon after settled in St. Louis, where he obtained employ ment. Then he interested himself in the progress of the rapidly-increasing western cities and wrote glowing ac counts to tho New York Tribune anoT Her ald. In 1858 he was engaged to report the political campaign between Lincoln and Louglass for tho New York pres3. He rapidly rose in journalistic circles and then for the first time the nanio of Henry Yillard, a nom-de-plume, became known to the people of that city. Under this name he won many laurels. When the war was declared between tho north and south in 18G1 he was engaged by the New York Herald ns a war correspondent. At the first attack upon Charleston he was on Admiral Dupont's flag-ship, and was the only correspondent in the en gagement. His success in reporting the battle earned for him a three-weeks' leave of absence, and on coming north he found himself a hero. He made the acquaintance of William Lloyd Garrison, and was taken to that gentleman's home in Boston, and introduced to tho Garrison household as a hero and strong anti- slavery advocate. Hero the young man saw "Miss Fanny Garrison, a beau tiful young lady, who was at that time about completing her edu cation in a Boston seminary. She was considered one of the belles of Boston society, was patriotic, bright and, though quite young, thoroughly understood tne causes which led to the" breach between tho north and south. Mr. " illard passed many hours in conversation with the enthusiastic maiden before ho again started for the front. Her vivacious manner and winning wavs had driven from his memory the early resolutions made before he sought his fortune on this side of the Atlantic, and the modest desire for a little cot in sunny France with the dark eyed girl who had first m Epireu mm wivu me teuuer Kviuimenu oi love, as his wife. Never in all his travels in Europe or any portion of the west and south for bv this time Yillard had seen much of the world had ho come in con tact with a soul which had so thoroughly charmed him. He returned to the south fully determined to keep her foremost in his memory. When, later on, malarial fever contracted in the southern swamps forced him again to return north, he was assisted back to health by the tender sympathies and cheering smiles of the beautiful iioston girl. Then he declared his love both to the daughter and parents and a little later he led her to the altar. Since his marriage, Mr. Villard's life has been one of unusual success.
