The German bark Werra is now outlGO days for this port from Liverpool. It is to be hoped that she has not met the same fate as tho unfortunate Minnie M. Walts.

The new steamer being built at Port land for the Columbia Transportation company is fast approaching completion. The Willamette Foundry is building the engines for her, and it is claimed that they are so powerful that the new vessel will be the fastest steam vessel ever built in the northwest. The installation services at the Pres byterian church last Sunday evening were participated in by a large congregation. Bev. L N. Condit delivered a fine installa tion sermon and Eev. J. V.

Brown, who was arrested re cently in Kalama on a charge of setting fire in Portland about three weeks ago, has confessed that he started tho fire so as to get the insurance of $500 upon his furniture.

Einto.vr.ors statements. Astoiiia. Or., Oct. IS, 1831. Ed. Astebiau: lief erring to tiie very good send-off you gave in the Sandfly morning's Astowajj to the Democratic club meeting of the evening before, we would like to say that we dropped into the club meeting .vhea it was partly through and heard one of the speakers predict as to tho result in the coming Ohio election. He referred to the Nev: York IlcittUI, New York Times and the Chicago Times "all Re publican papers,"' he said and that they all assured us that the Democrats will certainly win in the Ohio election. Now we have read the New York ILvaJd for over forty years, and the Times ever since it was started, and have known the Chicago Tihies for xnanv years, and will simply state that the He'.-aU never was and never pretended to be a Republican paper. The most it ever claimed in that direction was to be independent, it has always been the most cranky, crotchety, independent, devil-may-care pap:r hi New York. Tho late Horace Greeley called it and all similar papers "the Satanic press.' At the commencement of the late civil war the Herald advocated the separation of the south from the north, and the separation of the west from the east, so as to make three inde pendent confederacies. The Chicago Times has always bjen strong Democratic The New York Times has always been a quasi Republican paper and for the last ten years or more a free trade organ. The Republican party has for a few years ppst tried to get rid of the New "York Times. All three of tho.-v pnjvM are ultra free trade. Now if all the statements made at that club meeting were as much lacking in truth as that concerning those thiee papers, then Hip old saying will rnim to pass of when the blind load the Mind they will all probably fall into the pit to gether. " Sl'JKTVTOIt. "Tricks That Are Vain." On Saturday bust our reporter noticed a well known citizen of this place look ing carefully about various -roup- of Chinamen in the city, as though ia search of some missing member of the Flowery Kingdom. Pretty soon Chief Loughrey was called: and' then it appeared in this wise. Sin had engaged j!o saw and stow away :i quantity of wood; when it was nearly finished and the work delayed on account of rain, a part of the pay was called for, and 2 paid. On finishing the job and handing over tho balance, it leaked out that some other fellow had come and collected tho $2, greatly to Mr. Sin's disgust. The job now was" to find the aforesaid collector, but it was soon done, and the alternative of refunding tho money gotten by false pretenses or going to "the lock-up plainly set before tho heathen mind of "Ah Sin." It did seem so bad to spoil sa n:ce a plan to get money without work, bat it was done all the same, and Ah Sin's cousin pungled over the two dollars, jnst in time to save him from committal. 'Which is why I remark And my language is plaiu That for ways that are dark. And for tricks that vain. Tho heathen Chinee is peculiar: Which the same I am free to maintain.' ThicL with Salmon. All old residents of the northwest have heard stories about streams in which the salmon were so plentiful that it was diffi cult to drive a team across. Mr. U. B. Borthwick, of the Upper Cascades, states that he has often heard these stories, but never saw an example till a few days since, when he attempted to ride across Wind river, a few miles above the Cas cades. The stream was literally alive with salmon of different kinds, so close together that at everv step his horse's legs struck against" them, and he had considerable difficulty in urging the ani mal across. A short distance abovo the ford was a fall of CO feet, which stopped tho i rogress of the fish, and probably ac counts for them being collected in such largo numbers. Fish have been known to desert streams entirely on account of some obstruction having been placed across them a mill dam, for instance and it might be supposed from this that such an obstruction as a 00-foot fall would cause the salmon to desert this river. But probably owing to the great numbers of the fish they crowd up such streams in myriads till stopped. Even at tho Multnomah falls, which is only a short distance from the Columbia, and which are several hundred feet high, large numbers of salmon are found. From all such streams the dead lodies of salmon nre seen floating out by hun dreds, which probably give rise to tho idea entertained by some, that all the salmon which go up' tho rivers die with out returning to salt water. Orcgunian. The boiler of the steamer Clatsop Chief has been recovered. It will be remem bered that tho Chief was run into by tho steamship Oregon at "Willow bar, about three years aoo, and was sunk. When tho steamship struck the Chief the latter was keeled over and cut m two her whole length, her boiler going to the bottom. There it has laid ever since in fortv-six feet of water. A few days since Capt. S. F. Douglas, of tho Westporl, undertook tho job of raising it, which, with the aid of a barge, diver and jack-screws, he suc cessfully accomplished in two days. The boiler i.i but little the worse for its long rest at tho bottom of tho Columbia, and as it is worth about $1,500, well repays the cost of recovering it. Oregoninn. At Frank Falre".s.

TO-DAY'S ELECTION. Clevelan-d, Oct. 12. The Herald to morrow will contain estimated majori ties from every county in tha state, except Hamilton county, in which Cin cinnati Ls situated, showing a net Repub lican majority of about 19,009. This allows for a prohibition vole not much larger than last year. It is possible that this vote may reduce the Republican maioritv. and there mav be an incroaso in the Democratic vote, through exten-; sivo frauds that nave been planneu. ai tho present moment the outlook is for a Republican majoritj of not less than 10.000, and possibly 2,030. The vote will be very large. Cincijkjati, Oct. 12. Extremists on the Democratic side claim Hamilton county by 5.00a, while the same class on J the Republican side claim it by 'JJAj. i rVtsxI'ta- tinmlAil tnnll ill Ilftfll It VI l! lfr think Hamilton county will bo cloze, and thnt probablv a mixed ticket will b? elected. Speaking about the outlook for Ohio, in comparison with that of the corresponding time last year, Judge For aker, Republican candidate for govern or in 1SSJ, who has stumped the state, says it is much more favorable to the Republican cause. ''Why, we havo all the woo! growers, who said they were ashamed for voting against me hist year: and announced their intention to vote for General Robinson." G.'n. Noyes. ex-minister to France, has relumed from a stumping tour of the Ohio valley. He S3vs: 'I have no great hop'&j of llamilton county, but tho state does not and never has depended on it. There is no discouragement in the pros pect, but 1 tell you one thing, the river counties will do bolter than the reserve, but the Democrats arc putting up their money. At Gallipolis a Republican told me that money had struck this county in bulk. One thing is certain thousands of Democrats in Ohio will vote for Blaine who may not vote for Robinson. 1 do not see whv Blaine's majoritj should not 02 25,030. As it i -, I think t :e sta'e wi 1 go 10,000 next Tuesday for tho Republic ans. The tariff issue has hewn the king pin of the campaign." Colt-jibcs. Oct. 12. The Democratic state central committee claim the state by S,0D0. The Republican committee say thev will have a Republican majority of lO.OfiO. Sinsulnp ItflTit. ("i.i:vki.axu. Oct. 12. B:lya Lockwood. the Woman-Suffrage candidate for the presidency, addressed a large audience at the Euclid opera house to-night. To a reporter she said: "I am working heart and soul for our gieat cause. Wo have a fnll electoral vote in New Hampshire and some in Illinois. Maryland and tho .south ern slates. I don't, bf course, expect to be elected, but I want to see our strength at the polls. If elected. I would call one woman into the cabinet to commence a reform in the treasury. I think Blaiue's chances of election the best. I receive many letters from strangers. One man says" I can carry Mississippi. Another says I will carry "half of Illinois. I don't know whether sill this is talk and merely in the eye, but it's encouraging. I think in '& we'll surprise tho country with our strength.' Sho was listened to with great attention and frequent applause during her speech. Ilnlldozing Tnmman). Nnw Yos.7, Oct. 12. After the Chicago convention John Kelly received several letters of a threatening character, one especially violent being from Baltimore. Auother was from Chicago, and contained threats of assassination unless certain conditions were complied with. S.nca then Mr. Kelly has received a number of missives of tho same character, the latest being from Philadelphia, in which Kelty is threatened with death in case the Democrats lose New York. These letters do not give the slightest uneasiness to Mr. Kelly, as they are evidently the work of crank's. THE KEELT MOTOK. The Philadelphia papers announce a successful exhibition of the Keely motor. The Times says: "Tho exhibition in cluded expariuiculs in firing projectiles from the Keely gun, the lifting of weights by pressure of vapored ether and the op eration of one of the smaller vibratory engines. After charging the generator with less than one pint of water, which Keely injected into the machine from his month, tile inventor turned several levers, struck a chord to put the vibrators in tune, and announced that he had pro duced motive power sufficient for tho evening's work. The generator was not charged again during the entire exhibi tion. He iirst transmitted vapor from the receiver in such a way as to act upon a one-inch plunger, set in a steel cylin der, and supporting a iowerful lever, weighted with GS2 pounds of iron. Sim ple computations showed that a power of nearly 12.000 pounds was required to lift the weight which hung from the long lever. The instant Keely made his first expulsion into the small copper tube con nected with the cylinder tho plunger was seen to rise, carrying with it the enor mous weight oenilunt from the lonp nrm of the lever. The entertainment was concluded with an exhibition of a fifteen horse power vibratorj- engine, set up in tho room above tho ground floor. Vapor was introduced from tlw cpnunlnr lur n copper tube, passing through a hole in the flooring. Power was still furnished vj luv uiiKiuui luuuimui ui wiitjr inject ed into the machine by the inventor. Earlv in the eveninp visitnn: (rmrrinil around the simple looking contrivance with the most intense interest. When Keely turned the lever there was a rush ing sound, and in a moment the wheel began to revolve. It continued at a uni form rate of revolution for half an hour, and the combined power of the strongest muscle in tho audience and tho heaviest levers failed to retard the progress of the littlo wheel. Than Keely reversed the wheel, stopped it, wiped tho perspiration from his brow and smiled proudly, while tho gentlemen joined in threo hearty cheers and a 'tiger' for what they re garded the most complete exhibition the inventor had vet vouchsafed his giant allies."
