An Oregon U)or Sold. A dispatch from Washington giving an indofinito account of swindling acts of a man who pretended to be a priest, has developed tho fact that Thomas Char man, mayor of Oregon City and one of the wealthiest men of the town, is one of tho victims. About a year ago, Mayor Chapman received a letter from Cuentn, Spain, signed by one Mire, who pur ported to be a priest. He said ho was at the death-bed of a Brigadier named Charm an who left an immense estate, which has been confiscated by tho Car lists. Ho asked for a remittanco of 900 to send the granddaughter of the dead Brigadier to America, and wanted to know whether he should take preliminary steps to recover the estate. Tho letter had every appearance of an official docu ment, bomg bordered with various seals and much red tape. After tho exchange of a few letters Charmau sent 90J and sinco then has not heard from the p3tulo priest. IIOTELARCIVALS.- OCCIDENT.

Every one remembers tho sudden flight a few months ago of a young fellow named Bailey who had embezzlod money from C. IT. Cooper, his employer. After it was known that ho Lad skipped to San Francisco reposition was obtained, and V1tor ilobb wc.t to San Francisco to ..rri. i.

Eut tho oppartunity, wai. too goa - one to be lojt and tLo legal big wigs of Caii fomia have been solemnly considering the case ever since. Technically Hobb was under arrest for "cuntempt of court." j in reality he was at his office in this city ever sinco his retnru a few days after his departure for San Francisco. The matter has got so iuixed up in the California papers that the impression prevails that the Webfoot Nation was nbnnt orpanizino a lesion to co down to San Francisco, effect llobb's rescue from a dark and loathsome dungeon aim con-' vey him in triumph to his .North iciiic home. Concerning the matter, tho following from tho Chronicle of the 20th wilt be found amusing and instructive: JuugtM cuwyer, witJi Judges Hoffman; and Sabin as associates, in the United States Circuit court, rendered a decision and opinion yesterday in tho habeas cor pus case of W. L. Itobb. Tho circum stances of the case aro as follews: Kobb is the sheriff of Clatsop county, Or., and came to this state in search of Charles H. Bavley, for whom h6 held a warrant of arrest for embezzlement. Itobb also held an extradition warrant for tho ar rest of Barley, issued by Governor Stone man of this state. Bavley was found by Chief of i'olice Crowley and turned over to llobb to be taken back to Oregon. Bavley petitioned tho superior court of this city for a writ of habeas corpus, which was granted, and Bobb was ordered to bring his prisoner into court. This he refused to do, claiming that he was holding Bay ley under arrest under the United States laws, end in consequence of his ref usa. he was himself arrested by Sheriff P. Connolly on an order of the court for contempt of court. Kobb then petitioned the United States circuit court for a writ of habeas corpus. His case was argued and submitted several days ago. The opinion of Judge Sawyer embraces sixty five pages of legal-cap and occupied near ly an hour in the reading. Tho decision recites tho circumstances of the case. All of the United Statas laws bearing on the case are quoted. The opinion and decis ion state that Kobb did exactly what the supreme court of tho United States said ho should do under tho circumstance.?. Tho petitioner was acting under the authority of the United States and no state judge or court, after being officially informed that the prisoner was held un der tho authority of tho United States, has any right to interfere with him or require him to bring his prisoner before them. If any attempt should be made to control a marshal or government agent, or in any manner interfere with him, it is his duty to call to his aid any force that may bo necessary to maintain his authority of law against illegal inter ference. The decision cencludes: "Wo aro of tho opinion under tho authoritative de cision cited that the judge of the superior court, on the petition of Bayley as pre sented, had no jurisdiction to issue the writ. The petitioner is en titled to be discharged from imprison ment and it is so ordered."

Latest advices from tho PaciOc report largo purchases of salmon on English ac count; one agent in particular placing in a single block of 40,003 to 0,000 cases.

Witn tue loor rates nmv prevailing it is hopad that a sound basis has been maehed that will prevent tho dragging and unsatisfactory trade that has of late baeu tho rule. The Ullock, with 30,000 cases for Liverpool, is considerably over due. Sho left Astoria on July 6th. and was spoken about a month ago. Ships which sailed subsequently have alreauv arrived, and underwriters ask 10 guineas premium for re-insurance. The 3aluiou spot market is very steady, although tuere have been no operations of any magnitude: buyers for tne most part arc busy taking btock, and until same is finisued have no wisn to add to their lab-jrs by increasing their holdings. Daalers have very ligut stocks, and a brisk business is ccpscted after tha turn of tue year. It is reported on the most reliable autnontj that three well-known San Francisco houses have bougut up tue whole of tho remaining stocks oi Columbia river packing. This will be firmly held, and is evidence that bottom has been touched. l'lie canned goods business in salmon during tha past week has been exceed lugly small, and no activity is expected until the turn of the year, or perhaps well into January, wueu grocers will be removing their attractivo displays of dried fruits, and placing in tueir win dows the usual assortment of tinned goods, which aro less injured by the ex posure, more attractive than currants, raisins, etc. Cor. London Grocer. Tue market is firm and higiier, owing to scarcity of supp.y. During th6 past Week 70J cjdfcs Were purchased for ex port (forming a portion of a recent ship ment to Australia) at 1.25, which is equal to 1.27J for domestic shipment. Mr. E. B. Beck, of the firm of D. L. Beck & Sons, of this city, recently re turned from a trip to the Columbia river, and reports 6,00 J cases as tho outside esti mate of canned salmon now held on the Columbia. Ho states tUat he visited many canneries, and saw no more signs of salmon than ho would in a hay barn. He also says that no particular prepara tions are being made for tho coming sea son. Everyone appears to be waiting and in somo doubt as to what they'll do when the run begins. The high price of fish during tho past season, and the gen eral disappointment of packers as to the profits realized from tho season's work, together with the doubt which aswils them as to the conditions which may be attendant upon tue industry during the coming season, has a tendency to make oven tue most venturesome rather con servative. Keports from New York state that H,0ir0 cases of tho salmon cargo of the Hurlbut, now on tho way to that port, have been withdrawn from sale. Tho condition of the salmon market exhibits a rather phenomenal phase, in tho re spect that prices aro now higher in this market than in Now York. Outside river salmon, fall packed, is quotable at 1 for export and at 1.05 for domestic ship ment. o learn that Messrs. D. L. Beck & Sons have purchased tho cntiro business of Mr. Geo. W. Hume, including his cannery, fixtures and everything apper taining to tho business, inclusive of stock on hand. Mr. Hume's selling out is owing to his enforced retirement from business, . in consequence of failing health. Acting on tho advico of his physician, it is said Mr. Humo will rest from business entirely, and will engage in travel as a means of recuperating his health. We trust that Mr. Humo's en forced retirement may bo but temporary, and that physically renewed wo may at somo future time see him again engaged in salmon-packing an industry which he was among tho first to foster, and in which no nania stands higher. As Mr. Hume retires with probably a modest competence of about half a million, it is pleasant to think that ho will not bo iorced to re-engage in business against his inclination. We trust he will not bo obliged to travel far or long beforo find ing that which he is seeking, and, throughout his journeying, with him pleasant days and peaceful nirhts.
