Christmas was quietly spent in Astoria, home pleasures furnishing the principal enjoyments of the day. Sevoral private gatherings took place and nearly every one "had a good time.'

Sonw- of Uk oity docks indicate Astoria time in accordance with the true meri dian lines; others are changed to corre spond with tlw- change in Portland. The boats leave by Portland time, and niryone that doesn't wa it to get left must remem ber that Portland lime is now sixteen minutes faster than t:me in this city. About ten o'clock last night a loud out crv from the slip between Wilson fc Fish ers and Home's, attracted the attention of some pasvrs-by. who. hurrying to the spot, dragged out'a party by the name of Iteymau who wn clinging to the piles. He" was profane m his expressions of gratitude, and offered to "set 'em up" for all bunds. A very enjoyable time was had at the rusidonce of E.

At a citizens meeting. hold at tho r ' hall at half past seven last evening, it transpired that the total cost of the recent trial in Portland be fore Judge Dcady wherein certain citi zens of Astoria were lined $L0l)0 and costs, aggregated &.',335.K5.

Four year ago a small "dinkey," not unlike the fishing boats used at Astoria, crossed tho Atlantic from New York to Liverpool with a crew of two men and a cat, in 2G days. It was ship-rigged and the feat was bought to Ikj a remarkable one. One of the men named Perkins, is in East Portland now. being first officer of the ship ML Wash ington, lying at the railroad docks. He is a splendid seaman, aged about years. indicator. Sold the Goveesoes. A t'ood story is afloat about Henry Yillard and tho gov ernors of tho various states participating in tho festivities of tho night following evacuation day. He met tho distiguished gentlonieu on a friendly, soci.il footing, and somehow nearly every one of them wanted a "pointer" on tho market, "just for information, and nothing else.' So ho magnanimously confided to. the inquir ing ones his opinion that there would be a marked improvement in the market "from this on," particularly in his (the Yillard) railroad secuitics. One week from that time, for illustration, Oregon and Transcontinental had dropped from eight to ten points, enough to swamp al most anybody's margin! It was also no ticed that several governors still lingered about town and in the vicinitv of Vall street, wearing faces as long as a row of cnurns. A Bargain.

Toyon Punishment. For two or three days past tho chief of police has had a prisoner serving a sentence for some in fraction of the citj- laws, standing in tho cold rain on the street with a ball and chain attached to him. It appears that the prisoner refuses to work out his line on the streets, and is therefore placed on exhibition, which is Hicksning to the public. It is a privilege that prisoners ire to work out their hues, and if thev do not wish to, no power can be vested in the city to compt-1 them. A prisoner is sent to jail for a term of days, and not to work on tho street, or to stand on the streets, where people can see them and uave meir sympaiuies euusieu in ns e half. Standard The Besult. In the police court yes- terthvy appeared A. Muuson and Henry Sawmiller on a charge of resisting a police officer. They had an interpreter on hand through whom they entered a plea of "not guiltj." Judge Coffinbury held them in default of bail to ap pear to-daj". This trouble arises from the row in the old Scandivavian house last Tuesdav morning when Officer Steabb arrested Victor Johnson for the alleged cutting of John Brinkman as reported m full in Tuesday's Astobian. Steabb had arrested Johnson, whereupon Mnn- son aud bawumler took him away, when lie ran, pursued by Ullicer JJeasley, who finally captured hini. Johnson was moved to tho hospital, and is badlv hurt; one bullet penetrated his body at the base of the spinal column and coming out at the groin. It is considered impossible for the unfortunate man to live. Bnnk- nrian, who had been badly cut was out of danger yesterday. Yestkhdat's Stobm. The wind and rain that lulled on Christmas nwoke in greater fury yesterday morning and all day the storm blew furious from the south. The wind came in short strong gusts that played havoc with the few ladies and children that ventured out Signs, fences, trees, chimneys, etc., re ceived a severe snaking up. ana travel was seriously interfered with. A pile drover near Devlin's cannery toppled, and ono or two roofs sutiered, but tne casualties were light. In the stream, our sheltered harbor demonstrated its safety. The vessels simply put out an extra line anu let tne storm pipe on. ine caps the wind blew great guns; the sea came in in immense green waves, and naviga tion of all kinds was stopped. Porpoises in immense Bchools came up in front of tho city and sportively gamboled the live long day. As the snort day darkened into night tho wind whisked around to the southwest and roared, at every crevice. At midnight the storm moderated, and about half past two this morning the parting clouds gave promise of a nno day. A verv desirable room in the Odd Fellows building, for rent Apply to Dr.Latorce.
