Wheeler ic Bobb have sold the News route to O. B. Thomas. The head office.of the O. Ii. & Co. has been moved to Boston. The Sea King crossed out yesterday, The Carrie Witislow sails to-day. Thin cakes of ice floated in the river yesterday and the attendant gelidity was manifest. The Kate and Anna, Capt. Lutjens commanding, arrived in yesterday after noon from xaquina. The Banca cleared for Queenstown yes terday afternoon with 57,515 bushels cf wheat worth $62,149. The funeral of Mrs. Halberson will take place from her late residence at one o'clock this afternoon. At 1020 to-morrow morning E. C. Holden will have his regular Saturday auction sale of furniture, etc. The general health of the city is not very good. This cold, dry weather is provocative of pulmonary trouble. Among the Carrie Winslow,s cargo are 278 cases of canned halibut, shipped to South America by A. W. Berry, of this city. Patrick Keefe has been indicted by the D. S. grand jury for murder, in shout nj: and killing Win. Morton, in Alaska, last December. What is the difference between Seth Green and Jay Gould? Give it up? One stocks the Waters and the other wate.s the stocks. The Weeklt Astoeixk, in stamped wrappers, ready for mailing, published this morning; full of news and homo hap penings; price ten cants. The Carrie Winslow cleared for Monte video yesterday. Her cargo was grown and loaded in Clatsop county, and is composed of fish and lumber. John J. Murphy, of Salem, has been ap pointed U. S. Postofnce Inspector, in the place of Ben Simpson, of East Portland, who has hold the office for several years. The term "Webfoot' is generally ap- Elied in a metaphorical sense, but it is a ict that thore are two lusty boy babies in this city between whose tors is an elas tic tissue much resembling the webs on the feet of a gull. It is the intention of the enterprising Cushing Post No. 14, G. A. Ii., to org tn ize a "Ladies Belief Corps," wnich, wherever established, has been found to be an invaluable adjunct to the social well-being of the post. Thore is alroady some po'itiial stir in the state. Of this section ona thing can be predicated with absolute surety viz. that this county will look for greater numerical representation on the tickets to be voted in June than on former ones. The meeting of those interested in the Clatsop road will be in the court house at two o'clock this afternoon. It is a mat ter of great importance to those who have the interests of the place at heart and by a little effort that contemplated thorough fare may be made an established success. Miss Helen Spaulding lectures at Lib erty hall this evening on "The Higher Education of Woman." The hall will be comfortably warmed. The lecture is web spoken of by those who have heard it, the purpose is a most worthy one, and the fair lecturer will doubtless have a large audience. With a view to smoothing the way aB muoh as pos3ible, Col. Spsdden, our genial county clerk, signifies his willing ness to iisue marriage certificates free to all young ladies who apply for them. This being leap year, and fat. Valentino's Day being so near, the Col.'s offer should certainly prove additional inducement to help on the good work. Yesterday was about as near perfect as days over get on this mundane sphere. The air was remarkably ciear and just cold enough to make brisk walking a pleasure. So clear was the atmosphere that tree trunks and limbs, on Scar borough head, nine miles away were plainly discernible. The sun shone bright and warm, and the streets were filled with people. Thus far but little rain has fallen in February. Judge Briscoe, of Uwaco, who was in the offioa yesterday renewing his sub scription to The Astobiak, in speaking of the late disastrous fire by which he lost his house and many articles of value, said he was glad "it was no xorse." That there were several hundred cartridges which exploded during the fire, and had one of thes6 injured any member of the family it would have indeed occasioned cause for mourning; which is, after all, the most philosophic view to take of the matter. Waywabd Youth. A girl came into the Vindicator office a few days ago and asked us to tell her the whereabouts of her beau who went to Astoria two years Ago and had not been heard from since. He is probably in the refrigerator at Sa Jem, as an East Portlander will not stay in Astoria for over six months at a stretch unless he dies and is buried there. East Portland Vindicator. Sorry to near such a bad account of the East Portland youth, but some fish will fry that way. Steamer Days for February. From San Fran. From Astoria.

HelIo, Blinks," exclaimed the editor, as l seedy-looking individual shambled into the office. "What's on foot, now?" "Why, you see, sir," replied Blinks, "I am about to start another paper, .jaad" "Another one?" queried the editor; f"hat has become of the Tornado?" "Busted." "And the Tomahawk and the Cyclone, and half a dozen otiers?" "Gone up, gone up,"' sadly replied the projector of the ephemeral publications. "So you are going to start a new one, areyou? Humpa! Well, Pll see what 1 can do for you. What is this paper to be?" "I thought, as the dther ones didn't py," murmured Blinks, "I thought x'J start a subscription paper this time." Riek.

At the Coos Bay coal mines miners are jaid one dollar a ton for uuin.ii coa ana 'uoy say it is not enuugu. Parnell disagrees with Queen Vic. con ctrning her statements m relation to Ireland, and demands the right of free speech. At Seattle last Weduesday Sullivan met another "champion," Jas."Lang, ana knocked him out twice when Lang gave up. Time seven seconds. Vice President Oakes says that the Northern Pacific liailroad. Company's branch roads cost $15,00J per mile, in stead of $40,000 as charged. Woman suffrage is receivinc a boom in Manon county. The improbable rumor is circulated tnat James u. uiaiue wui stump Oregon for the cause next May. The most exaggerated reports cooie from tuo Coear d'Alene mines. Fifty dollar nuggets are lying around every where. Tne suffering will begin njrt month. Tho U.

From the roof of the new Central school house says tho Tacoma Ledger, cau be counted eighty-six buildings iu course of construction, and lumber de livered on the ground for a number ot buildings about to be erected. The Talk has heard that there is a sui veying party in the mountains in tht eastern part of Marion County, surveying a line for a proposed railroad througu tv. the valley, from some point on the UtaL Short Line. They sont to Portland a f6w days ago for guides to show them through the various passe?. The report of a sale of property at Port Orford to Gould was premature. Negoti ations have been going on w.th eastern capitalists for the sale to them of a lare -vator frontage and other property, but it is not yet,C3iisuui mated. The object is to oonnect Port Orford, which has a goou summer harbor, by rail with tje Oregon and California railroad. The railroad newspapers in California say that California and Oregon railroad, now being extended north arard from Kedding, will not bj completed to the state line if the land grant of the road bt declared forfeited by congreis. The Central Pacific psople, sinca agreeing t meet the Oregon road at tho state line, have made little progress in construc tion, but appear to be preparing for iaid work next season. A proposal has been made to the sen ate committee to amend all forfeiture bills, by providing that all lands aiicgeu t be f jrteited bhall be sold by the cu panies nt 1 25 par acre, and that the com panies shall have five years to dispone oi all of said lands. At the end of five years nil land not sold to actual salt er s to revert to the government. ThiB comprom.se is offered on behulf of rai -road c irporations affected. An agent of Sisson fc Crocker has been in Port.and after Ciines s to work on tiie railroad north of lied Jing. It is assert ed that the C. P. managers want to put 10 0J0 men at work on tho road in the spring. Tne Shasta Courier says tweutj miles of tho O. & C. railroad above R.-d-din has been accepted by tho govern ment commissioners. Tne stage anu teaming will probably not be changed from Kedding to Sacramento Bridge unti tho track reaches that point, which wit. be about July, or as soon as the big tun nel No. 4 is eo Jiplctec'. A number of the leading anti-monopolists of the Willamette valley have been session in Si.em tais week. Hon. Al. Vilkius, of Line county is chairman. Judges 11. P. Boise and B. F.

Available assets of tho Oregon and Transcontinental Company are likely to be diminished about $2,0oO,OjO by thi recent dassovery of a clause m our state statutes in leferencs to mortgager.

The O. and T. contracted some time ago to build the O. and C. ltailway, taking and placing on the market the bonds of the latter compmy in piyment. There are now about ,I,QjU,0jO of these bonds in the treasury of tho O. and T., and as they were issed under the defect ive general mortgage law, they are not negotiable. Blacksmith Wauled.

A good c'.erks, as capable, would be glad to do the work for $2,003 a year. Standard. In t'ae case of the projected line to As torin, we are of opinion that the grant is just'y liable to forfeiture on the ground of absolute nnnf a'.Dlaieut of tho terms of contract, and the nian:fjst absence of any wish on the part of the corporation to meet its obligations in the premises. But, in the case of tho Cascade division of the Northern Pacific road the case is very different. Seattle Herald. He who destroys the American farm life, will destroy the fountains of repub- licin institutions. The tendency oi c.ty life is to monopolv, oligarchy, and mon archy. But for these hundred years our farm's havs given enough of the'ir honest sturdy sons, ana strong, beautiful daugh ters tb the cities to keep up a respectable show of phvsical energv, business activ ity and political integrity. W.W. Stales man. Noth'ng, except, perhaps, the love of a sw-et young woinau, wm lire the bhxd nJ intoxicate the reason and enthusiasm of a man, like a hundred dollar gold nug get. Ho will forget that a quail on toast is better than eleven in the bush; he will sacrifice his business, his quiet social life and all its pleasures, sneer at cold and thirst and hunger, defy all kinds of dancer, in a word there isn't much a man wou'c do to got where hundred dollar nugg.'t? of gold uiay be picked up as he atrolta ubuat. "Handard. "For Z0 years I have heard of nothing bat decay, and I have seen nothing prog ress," said Macaulay. The remark is applicable to this country. Ever since the war there has been a cry that the country was being mined by the Kepub Iicans, and yet tho figures show largely increased wealth, a public debt greatly -oduced and peace within our borders. Taero is a slight lull in business, but vhen compared with the stagnation of trade in England, France and Germany, it is nothing. Coast Mail. The Boston Traveller defines "an in dependent newapaner" as "one that sells tae ns3 of its co u ans to any party for nnney." and a "party org in as "on that vigorously and consistently upholi a ue principles of one party." Well, th; t rind of definition is cheap and easy, and just as unanswerable as it would be tn Jefine "an honest man" as "one who will not lie for less than ten dollars." and "a rascal" aa "one who doesn't often get r good price for lying.' It is a kind of definition worthy of those who hold that "every man has his price" and that even woman is likewise but whoever declares such a belief merely affixes a brand to his own forehead, whereby all who c n understand human nature may know hip character at once. East Portland Vindi cator. Morrison's tariff bill will satisfy no body who care3 about the tariff question. Free traders will reject it because it utterly ignores scientific principles of fiscal reform; protectionists will repudi ite it because it will appear to them as r. blow aimed nt their interests, and inde pendent criticism will fall upon it, both because it is manifestly only a paltry ex pedient for the presidential year, and lecause it is a confession on the part oi ts authors of inability or want of cour age to deal with the subject in detail. It is not probable that the bill will beojmt i law, since it can hardly pass tho sen -te,even if it pisses tho house; but the presidential contest will be made upon it a'l the same. The Democratic party can not defend so shallow a measure, and wil. jo to tho wall. Oregonian. There is a right way and a wrong waj to get rid of an obnoxious law. Oao is manly and honorab.e, the other sneaking and cowardly. The Democratic party, by its organs and through its recent act in the displacement of Pendleton b Payne, in Ohio, is avowedly hostile to tht -ivil service law. This being tha fact, the right way the manly and honora'o'i course for that party to pursue is plainly to recant its previously loudlj' avowee convictions, "take the bull by the horns'' ind repeal that hateful bar to enjoyment of the spoils which it hopes to secure b victory next November. But the Demo crat "c party is cowardly in instinct, and in practice a trimmer. It fears to gr.ip plo with any prominent question lest by so doing it jeopardize success. It has no convictions; or, if it h is pronounced opinions, courage is lacking to exemplify them by acts. Seattle Post-Intelligencer. WHT MAS IS LIKE A FISH. A man is like a fish indeed, He drinks like one and Iove3 the we3d; dis jovs a bait when he is caught In scaly weighs. His lines are taut In schools officious where tbey say, Both fear the rod, but hook-ey play. Fishes and men both go in seine; 'Tis swimmin' makes them that is plain. Fishes spawn ova coats; men too; And when in pools they both shako cue. Both run for offish at the poles Then up Salt Kiver go in shoals. Fish go to sea: men see to go To "bars" for Vichy water, oh! Both like to lie on warm spring beds And wave soft billows for their heads, And neither one will make a "rise" Until taey're forced to by tho "flies." Both men and fish have "fishy tales; Both lie in wait when in the scales. From frying-pan3 right in the fira The fishes jump and never tire; So likewise does a fiskous man Who thinks this world a fryn;;-pan.
