SUtrbuck. one of the few iron sailing vessels carrying tho Stars and Stripes, cleared yesterday for Liverpool, with a ooatly cargo of wheat and flour. She lias on board H,GG5 barrels flour, 49, 957 bushels wheat, one box elk heads, and one "box of Indian bric-a-brac," what ever -that may bo. Her manifest shows a value of $117,812. The Flintshire is loading at Sm Fran cisoo for Queenstown with wheat and flour. The notable part of this item is that the wheat and flour is from Oregon, and is carried from the Columbia river by steamers to San Francisco. But as long -as Portland-on-tue- Willamette makes her little commission it is not for ay ether community to buck. The Annie Johnson, at this port last Iar, on the 3d inst., while bound from ihrerpool for Sidney, ran down and sank the German bark Lucia, bound from Gloucester to Memel with a load of salt. Six of the latter's crew were drowned and four others, including the captain, mate and two seamen, W6re saved and taken aboard the Annie Johnson. The largest bell in the world isnow said to be at Kioto, Japan. It is twenty four feet high and sixteen inches thick at the rim.

That will leave the Republicans of Yamhill two senators to olect at tho June election. Ex-Consul O. N. Denuv publishes his reasons for resigning. He claims that Secretary Frelinghuyseu attempted to use ului as a tool to help Geo. F. Seward and beat Cucle Sam. Last Monday the oldest .ion of Mr. Wm. Bowman, of New Era, Clackamas county, was engaged in felling some tro, 8 not far from the house, lie cut oue down and then started for the house, passing by the fallen tree, and was horri lied to s&e his young brother, John, aged 5 years, lying under it crushed to death. The little felloe never spoke. Writing from Rathdrum, Idaho, to the Oregon City Courier, a correspondent says: I left home in Clackamas county, the banner county of Oregon, on the 12tb of Fobruary for the Coenr d'Alene mines and arrived there on the lr.th of March. I found from 1000 to 2000 "broke' men, without money, grub or blankets, and nothing to do, and from one to five feet of snow and still snowing, and it will re quire inreu montns 10 remove u, ior n is very cold in that part of tho country. There are thousands of men there that are bound to suffer. In regard to the richness of the mines it is hard to deter mine, for there has not been one pound of gold dust taken from a mine up to date. It is a railroad boom and a rich harvest for the steamboats and hotel keepers. I would sa3' to nil farmers in old Webfoiit, stay at homo, though poor it may be, und -ou will suffer no loss, for a rolling btono cun't gather much mos I say to all that intend going to the mines, tako your team and a couple of pack horses and take your own grub and haye nothing to do with tho railroad company, who will skin j-ou out of every dollar you are worth. A man starting from Portland wants from $100 to S100U and the more tho bettor. Captain Worth was oxonerated'from blame in Seattle last Thursday for the loss of tho Umatilla. The local inspect ors say: "After a careful roision of ali the evidence in the case wo can arrive at but one conclusion; namely, that the steamship Umatilla was thrown ont of her course by a strong current netting to the north and eastward. According to courses steered, had the ship made that course sue should have gone at let-st ten or twelve miles to tho westward of Flat tery reef. It is woll known to experi enced navigators that it is of frequent oc currence in tho winter months that thert is a strong "set" to the current north ward, extending from bolow the Colum bia river. This "set" increases in veloci ty as it nears the straits of Juan doFuca. where ever3 thing drifting north by its flow is drawn in. This has been often verified by wreckage brought from tht vioinity of Gray's harbor, Shoalwnter bay and the Columbia river. At the time of the accident to tho Queen of tht Pacific on the Columbia river bar. freight thrown over to lighten tho ship was in n short timo thereafter picked up off Cape Flattery by the Indians; also, at the time of tho loss of the steamship Pacific, in 1875, thirty miles southwest of the cape. The wreckage from where hhe s ink wa drifted 100 miles into and up the straits, inside of seventy hours, wreckage from her finding its vajf e en as far north as the north end of tho Gulf of Georgia, the last survivor being picked up nearly off Race Rocks, and somo of tho remains of persons lost at that time being picked up on San Juan Island. With these lo cal causes, together with the fact that there was a blinding snow storm prevail ing at the time, we consider it a case where the most skillful navigator might have made the same mistake.

Daniel Hawn an insane inmate of one room for sixty years, died at Huntington, Perm., last Thursday, astat 8J. Gen. G. W. Deitzler was thrown from a buggy near Tucson, Arizona, last Thurs day, and almost instanly killed. The earnings of the Northern Pacific the first weok m April were 317,600, an increase of 152,000 over tho correspond ing week in '83. Heavy rains are again reported from southern California. Complaint is made that those who prayed for rain have over done the thing. In the United States district court at Vancouver, last Thursdfly Geo. F. Scott plepded guilty to the charge of cutting timber on government land and was fined $175 and costs, which was paid into court and ha was discharged. The Dutch authorities have blookadod a portion of tho Acheon coast of Su matra, with a view of coercing a pressure upon the rajah of Tenom, to force him to release the crew of the wrecked Eng lish steamer Misero. Positive proof has been established 'n London of the connection of Americ n anarchists' with those of Europe. Inter cepted letters in Switzerland from New York prove the fact beyond a doubt. Englishmen are as badly worried over it as in '63 when rebel cruisers left English shipyards to destroy the commerce of the North. The American minister has demanded of the Haytian government payment of 400,000 indemnity for American losses on account of the riots in September last, and the surrender of the Mole Saint Nicholas as a guarantee that tho money will be paid. German claims amount to 500,000, French claims to an equal sum, and English claims to 330,0J0. Tho number of persons killed during the rev olution is officially declared to hav6 been 7000. The disappearance of persons im plicated in tho revolution is causing con siderable excitement. It has leaked out in San Francisco that at the last meeting of the Northern Pa cifio board of directors, held March 20tb, a resolution was passed that the company would decline to sell their coal lands, which are unearned, in Washington ter ritory, upon the ground that it would be more profitable to lease them upon roy alties. This is the commencement of what promises to be an interesting and hot fight between tho Northern Pacific and the Oregon Improvement company. Under the former management the Northern Pacific agreed to sell to the Oregon Improvement company at cur rent prices, certain lands in tho neighbor hood of Seattle, which were to be pros pected for coal. These lands are now in possession of the Oregon Improvement company, who have spent large sums in ilnveloninc the coal lands. The discov ery and development of such coal lands were encouraged by the Northern Pacific, which now attempts to repudiate its agreement. Oho Thousaud Dollars Worth of County Orders wanted.

An incident which occurred a few years since on an American vessel, which was nearing port after an extendod voyage around Capo Horn, illustrates the super stitions that are held bysailors. Among the crew of the vesssl was an old sailor who was noted for his meanness, and who open' expressed a desire that the voyage ini:ht be prolonged, in order that he oould have more wages when port was reached. The other seamen were satis fied with the amounts due them, nnd Wire aunoas t get into port as soon as possible. One evening, during the dog watch, the penurious sailor went on to the forecastle head end began to whistle He then beckoned to the vurous points of the compass ahead, as if to charm up a head wind. While the old sailor was oc cupird with his incantations he was ob served by ono of the ship's boys, who lmmt-diaU'ly ran into tne iorecasue una informed the men that 'Pat-sey'" was on the forec.i-.tlo head, engaged in u diaboli oai attempt in chirm up a head wind. Intou-e judigiMtx n took possession of tar men. Cur-- -vro heapod upon his head, and Mme of tho bolder ones pro posed throwing the objectionable wiza d overbojrd. lie h'.d committed a sin which his ship.nates could not forghe. Aud yet the siuio men had a short time previously expr-vSod themselves as firmly of the bblief that whistling or any other action on the prl of inortHls could have no effect whatever upon tho wind. Even old sua captains, who havo risen from foremast hands, are not entirely free from these prejudice-, although they deride thcui in lhf-r. An old ship master .-iijlt d noi.u'oned the religious boliefa th l ui haa been taught in his youth, was once induced to take on a voyage a clergyman's son, who had sown such a liberal crop of wild oats on land that it had become necessary for him to take up his residence for a time on the sea. Tho voyage was a very long one, and in several respects did not prove sat isfactory to the captain. Tho latter con ceived a strong dislike for the prodigal son, whom he seemod to fancy was in some way the cause of his misfortune. Toward the close of the voyage the ship was becalmed for nearly a fortnight. Once during this timo, while the captain was on deck, it looked as if a breeze was about to spring up, but no wind came. After his hopes had beon dashod the captain happened to look around. The unfortunate prodigal son wos scrubbing tho deck near him. Tho captain gavo tho youngster an angry look and ex claimed: "I never will havo a fair wind as loag as I keep such a fellow as you on board. I believoyou are the Jonah of this ship!" Jack has a peculiar way of measuring time. If ho ships on the 15th of August ho imagines that his first month of labor is completed on tho 14th of September. He holds that from the 15th of August to the 15th of September is one mouth and one day, and no amount of argument or figuring will convince him to the con trary. But he readily admits that his second mouth of labor is frjm tho 14th of Septfiuber to the 14th of October. All the subsequent montliri of the voyage he counts iu the same maimer. If asked vhy he does not apply the same rule to tho other months which ho does to the arst one, ho replies that he reckons the first month correctly, but that "it is dif ferent with the other mouths." Jack holds a number of other peculiar views with which he stubbornly refuses to part, it is lionerallv belayed that the deposits jf ga.!u6 ou tho islands situated oft the Pacific coast were left there ages ago by oa birds. But Jack has an entirely dif ferent opinion. He insists that guano is a Mibbl;.nc which was formed beneath the surface of the earth, and was thrust apon mankind by volcanic disturbances. Sjuiij of tho ignorant natives and men .vho bae shoveled this fertilizer assure Jack that his opinion is the correct one, and with this 7oihty backing he con siders himself justified in defying the opinion of the scientific world. A sailor's style of expressing himself is as pi-culitr as is his mode of reasoning, tie is very much given to profanity, but jis oaths are different from thoso Used by landsmen. His curses are usually directed towards the ejes of the person vho has aroused his indignation. He will curss his own e3'es with the same en ergy with which he calls down anathe mas upon those of his enemies. The fact cuat an inanimate object which has drawn upon itself his displeasure does uot possess organs of sight will not pre vent him from earnestly cursing his eyes. Vnen the sailor desires to request a fel-low-boing to go to a certain very hot climate he does not say, "Go to ." de prefers tho expression, "Get to out of this!" Nearl3' every one of Juck's favorite ouths his some strange peculiar ity about it. Ho does not indulge iu pro fanity to any great extent during his uours of relaxation. It is during tho fury of the gale, when all his exertions aro needed in taking in sail, that the sailor comes out strongest with his oaths. At such n time he seems to consider it his duty to curse. Tho roar of profanity which arises from a vard-arm full of sailors engaged in frantic efforts to furl i sail, is sometimes nearly enough to drown the bowlings of tho tempest. At such times every one on board ehip, from the captain down to the cabin-boy, curses. Even stewardesses of acknowl edged respectability have been heard in dulging in th6 genuine sea oaths. Yet with all his superstitious prejudices the sailor has never appeared to havo any fears that indulgeuce in profanity, even in times of imminent danger, might bring down some misfortune upon his head. Some sailors indulge in the ex pression, "Strikes me lucky." Other sea men have been known to condemn this impreoation as calculated to tempt Provi dence, besides being in very bad taste. It is perhaps needless to state that these critics were men who indulged to a shocking extent in other forms of pro fanity. There is a technical name for every thing on board ship, but tho sailor has succeeded in inventing corruptions for many of these terms. Instead of Baving "abaft" he prefers to say ,,beaft,""and "fornst" does duty for "forward of ." The proper term for am implement used in cleaming the decla is "squegee," but this is usually known to the sailors as a "screegee," or "scootagee." The car penter is spoken of as "Chips," while the lord of tho gallery -has his title added to his Christian name. If his name hap pens to ba Joseph, he is known as "Joe, the cook." lo other functionary on board ship has his title used in connec tion with hisnamo on ordinarv niwminmi The captain is invariably known as the "Old Man. To eacb eailoi's Christian name is prefixed either the name of tho port from which he hails or an adjoctive expressive of some peculiarity of his. If a sailor coming from Liverpool is named James, his shipmates aro apt to speak of him as "Liverpool Jim." Jaok often speaks of his Dunk as his "paw," and wacn about to retire expresses his de termination to "turn into his pew." The officers frequently speak of an old sailor aaa"whaIo." A drunken man is de scribed as being about "three Rhfets in the wind," because his motion then some wnat resemoies tne staggering movement oi a snip wmon nas Ooeu iorced by a gale to shorten her sail to three Bheets of can V8S3. Many of the expressions, howavor. whioh the ideal sailor is popularly sup posed to use are obsolete. The stage sailor calls his wife his "figurehead," and speake8 contemptuously of landsmen as "land-lubbera" and "swabs." Th ri sailor never uses these expressions in the senses referred to. He speaks of being married as "getting spliced" or "getting switched," and women he regards affec tionately as "the judies." When he wishes any one to move he requests him to "slew round.' On sailing Teasels, as a rule, the cap tains and officers express themselves in a Banner similar to that of the common sai!or. On men of-war, howover, the su perior officers use more elegant language and leave the common termB to the boat swain nnd tho other petty officers. An officer who had obtained nearly all of his knowledge of navigation from books wan once superintending the hauling home of the maintopsail sheet, when its progress was suddenly checked. Callinc to a sea man, the officer gave him the following erder: "My man, ascend the shrouds and Eroceed outward until you gain the star oard extremity of the mam yard. As certain the cause or causes which impede the main sheet." "Aye, a3e, sir," replied the sailor, who rushed up the rigging until the main yard was reached. Here he paused and gave himself up to reflection. It was quite evident that he did not understand the officer's order. The boatswain's mate approached the officer, and, touching his hat, said: "I fear sir, the man did not understand your order; had I not better givo it to him in language which be can understand?" Tho officer gav.e his sanc tion to the proposition, and the boat swain's mate exclaimed: "Here, you soup-swilling son of a sea-cook, lay out on the starboard yard-arm and so what in the flames of blazes is the matter with the topsail sheet." The sailor then un derstood tho order, and after bestowing a look of gratitude upon the boatswain's mate for baving voluntarily become his interpreter he proceeded to obey his in structions. .Steamer Iters for April.
