The Republican majority on congress was 136 on a total of 1,792 votes cast in the county. There will bo about 800 votes cast in this city to-day and about 1,500 in the county. As to the probable "majority, it can best bo told about Thursday. The campaign that closes to-day has been a good-humored one as far as Asto ria is concerned. There never was more enthusiasm, more speeches, more effort and more "whooping-up" here before as there has been the past month, but ev eryone was gentlemanly about it, and both sides are to be congratulated on the good-natured spirit in which they have carried on the presidential fight of '84. The American bark Coloma is at Ba ker's bay ready to go to Hong Kong. She has a miscellaneous cargo among which are 352 Chinamen. Each one of the lot has a store of flour, rice, turnips, cab bage and other combustibles, and has a little barrel of water, everything being strictlyprivate, no fable d'hote being the rule. The greater part of them got cer tificates at the custom house here enti tling them to return. These certificates have a cash value of 70 each in China, for those who want to come here and who have never had a chance to acquire any of the coin that the mongolian picks up on this coast.

The rain fell steadily all day yesterday and as night closed in the remark was heard "Ij guess the processions won't amount to much to-night."' But they did. Thero has been too much enthusi asm in this campaign to let a little moist ure interfere with winding up the busi ness in good shape. At seven o'clock, the Astoria Blaine and Xogan club and the Scandinavian Blaine and Logan club, preceded by a drum corps, formed at the wigwam and marched through the prin cipal streets. Directly in front of the Republican headquarters were gathering the Cleveland and Hendricks club and scarcely had the last of Blaine's adher ents turned the corner when the Demo cratic procession preceded by the brass band came marching by. Both clnbs presented a splendid appearance. The ranks were full and though the monoto nous drizzle kept up, the streets were crowded with spectators; ladies in water proofs were out in large numbers; a por tion of the route was illuminated and after the procession had marched and countermarched and hurrahed, the Dem ocratic phalanx which like its Republi can competitor received new recruits on every corner, filed up to Occidental Hall, which in a few minutes was filled and amid surging cheers for CLEVELAND AND HEKDBICKS, The curtain rolled up, and Col. "W. C. Gaston stepped to the front. He mado a telling speech, reviewed the history and the records of both parties, paid his re spects to the candidates, eulogized Cleve land and amid the wildest enthusiasai,prc dicted triumph for his party at the polls to-aay. uueer niter cneer burst forth, and when the exercises at the hall were concluded, the Democrats, now in even greater forco than before, re-formed and marched down tho street with hearty hurrahs for Cleveland and Hendricks. Meanwhile the Republicans had swung eastward, and after visiting Upper Asto ria, whero a series of five-minute speeches were given, came marching down to their hall, whero a counterpart of political en thusiasm to that at the Occidental was indulged in. Every scat was full, and amid great applause Raliegh Stott, C. W. Fulton, J. Q. A. Bowlby and others spoke in turn. Their utteranoes found affirma tive echo in the hearts of their hearers, and not sinco the wigwam was opened last summer has heartier or more con tinuous cheering been heard within its walls. The mention of tho names of ULAINE AND LOGAN Brought everyone to their fesl with a "threo times three and a tiger," and when the meeting finally broke up, it needed but Abe word to start all to parad ing again. Bets were made and lost and won on the relative size of the processions. Both sides did well; thero was no foolish carousing or idle swaggering. Nearly every torch in both processions had an American sovereign under it and the stately tread and fine bearing of those who marched in the ranks was the source of many handsome compliments for the lookers on. Tho demonstration last night is a good illustration of what TnE Astosian has often claimed that there is no more peaceable, Irw-abiding community than ours on tho coast. There were at least 3,000 people on the streets last night, in tho procession and lining the sidewalks along the line of march, aud a more cood-humored crowd would be hard to to find. "Hurrah for Cleveland," f rora tuu jLTuuiucrauc cuiuum was answered uy "Hurrah for Blaine," from tho Ilepub lican ranks, "Burn this letter," sung out by a voter who carried a Democratic torch, was answered by "What is Hen dricks' war record?" in a deep bass voice from a stalwart in the Republican col umn. Astoria, at least, has demonstrat ed that a hot political contest can be car ried on with earnestness and a determin ation to win and tho kindliest feelings preserved to tho very last. And that is the true American spirit. "Is Castle Dead!" Tho City Item of Tuesday evening con tains an interesting tale of wrong and outrage related by a lady recently ar rived from Portland, Oregon, which might go to strengthen tho belief onter tained by some that "W. N. Castle, for mer city clerk of this city, is not dead. Mr. Castle, who was a defaultor to the city in the sum of 1,500, took passage on an Oregon steamer for tho northern coast. A dispatch to tho chief of police at Astoria anticipated him. Tho officer, with an assistant, went on board of the steamer upon its arrival at that place and arrested him. They conducted him to the city lockup, but before entering the door he took a step backward, and quickly placing a pistol to his bead he shot himself through tho brain and fell dead upon the sidewalk. Such was the fact that tho Astoria officers tele graphed to our chief of police at the time, and which tho writer, upon a sub sequent visit to Astoria, satisfactorily (to himself at least) verified. The lock up adjoins, or is in the same building with the fire engine. Tho body was tak en into the engine house. Tho dispatch also enquired what disposition should be made with the body whether our au thorities wanted it sent back. It was agreed that we had no use for it. and the Astoria officers, we believe, were so in formed. The question of Castle's death has been raised before; but in tho light of the above facts tho matter ought to be considered settled. San Jose, Cat., Mercury, Oct. 31.

How ber Skipper Gained and Lot Iu Am bition. I was bom in a seaport town on the New England coast, where all are -more or less connected with tho sea, for tho most of the men are retired sea-captains, living upon the money made in whaling or the merchant service. So, as a boy, I looked forward to the timo when I could go to sea and reach the highest ambition of my life in being a captain, r.blo to walk the quarter-deck, master of the vessel. In 1853 1 arrived in California, coming ''round tho Horn,"and entered into tho service of Silas Burrows fc Co., coasting. At that time thev owned fifteen or twenty coasters; one of them, named the Maria, was the pride of the firm, and called by Burrows his "yacht," being a brig that ho had como to the country in. "We all yearned to be appointed to this brig, as she was the best fitted and supplied of all his coasters. "While I was mate of the brig Marshall, waiting for a charter, the yacht Maria came in from Humbolt, with a load of lumber which had been sold to parties in San Diego, so Barrows ordered her to take her supplies and proceed on her voyage. "While beating out of tho har jor she camo into collision with another ves sel, which carried away her bowsprit, forcing her to return for repairs. Bur rows did not wait to find out whose fault it was, but immediately bounced tho cap tain and mate, as ho considered it an in excusable fault for any ono to allow an accident to happen to his "yacht," which was the apple ot his eye. He then sent for me, told me to go on board the Ma ria, put in a new bowsprit, and repair tho damage, which I proceeded to do. After she was ready for sea, I went to tho ofiico and so reported to Mr. Burrows. He Jooked up over his spectacles, and said: "All right. Can't you take her to San Diego?" I replied, "Yes, sir.' "Well, then, go and clear her; ship a mate with you, and be off." I turned away with my heart a-thump-ing so that it seemed to mo any one could have heard it. I soon shipped a mate, and, as I was going to tho custom house to clear the brig, I was so proud to think I had so unexpectedly reached the crown of my ambition that I felt six feet taller, and wondered, as I passed the peo ple on tho street, if they knew I was cap tain of the brig Maria. Well, I got her out of the Heads and started for San Diego. Then my trouble commenced. Sho was top-heavy from her deok-load of lumber, and cranky from being over-loaded; so, going before the wind, with the swell that the north west trades mako on this coast, I had to take in the royal and to'gallan' sail to keep her from rolling tho mast out of her. Tho wind was so light that, with all the sail I dared carry, I was hardly doing moro than drifting along. My Sunday school education had not been neglected when I was a boy, but I had not profited by it so much as by my life around tho docks and in the forecastle. Still, I prided myself that I had fairly read tho Bible, from Genesis to ltevolatibns, and I availed myself of my Biblical lore to in vent strange and awful combinations of profanity. I used to walk tho quarter deck saying ray prayers baokward, grit ting my teeth, and worrying at the slow timo lwas making. But with all my frclting, it did no good. I drifted into San Diego in thirty dajs after I left San Francisco. Thero I found no wharf, aud as the charter called for the lumber to be deliv ered above high-water mark, wo had to raft the lumber ashore, and then take it up on the beach. It was slow work, I can tell you. Then I took on a load of pota toes, and with a surf-boat, which I hired from the peoplo on shore, and my one quarter-boat, I made out to get my pota toes on board, and in one month from the time I entered the harbor of San Diego I got to sea again. Well, 1 had trimmed the brig this time so I believed she would sail, but after I got to sea I found flho would not, and. thinking it was because she had too much draft aft, I took off the hatch and ohanged tho cargo so as to put her moro on an even keel. But that did not do. Then I tried putting her more by tho head; but with all my changes she would not sail. I shifted thoso hapless spuds so frequently and so recklessly that they were almost worn out. At last I re sortod to crowding her under sail. Dur ing the day I could carry all tho sail we had, but as tho sun went down up would come the wind, and I would have to lake in my light sail and close-reef my top sail. Then at times I would have to heave her'to, under a storm staysail. Blow? Oh, how it did blow! Havo you ever seen ono of our northwest trade gales, when the sky is clear and cloudless, the stars shining brightly and unwink ingly in the bluo vault above, tho sea one mass of whito foam, and the wind blow ing so that a man can scarcely stand up? No? Then you ought to. After tho sun roso in tho morning, the wind would go down, and I would make sail as fast as tho brig would stand it. By noon we would havo a nice wholesale breezo, but as the sun went down we had to take in sail and mako snug again. Day after day was this the same; night after night I walked the deck storming and cursing, but I got along no faster. . At noon I would take the sun and find how little I was gaining in my latitude: mv longitude I got my dead reckoning, and I soon found that under no condition would the brig sail far on the wind. Sho would drift sideways her, whole breadth in going her length ahead: and so. after discovering that, I took from the log book tho number of knots made, then multiplied the ship's breadth by her length, ana tuns nau ner longitude. One day I stopped and began to think. Said I to mysolf : "This voyage is mak ing me an old man before my time, through fretting and worrying. It does no good. I have been out so long already that when I arrive in San Francisco Bur rows will bounce me. I have mado a failure as skipper, and I havo lost all am bition ever to want to be one again." irom that time I became a newman. Nothinp.could or would rile me, or put mo out of temper. I took tho world easy, did the best I could, read all the books aboard the ship, both forward and aft. Then, when I got up abreast of Monterey, I stood in, got some water, bought out all the novels they had in the old town, and started again for San Francisco, hoping to reach that port sometime be fore the end of the world. So, ono pleasant morning I made the Farallones, crossed the bar, and came sailing into the Golden Gate one hun dred and tliirty-tico days since I had beat out of the harbor in all the pride of a young man's first mastership of a ves sel. I didn't want any more of it! I had gained my ambition and lost it. I still might havo to go to sea, but I no longer hankered after a "life on tho ocean wave." When we got abreast of Long Wharf I dropped anchor, put my traps into the boat, turneu.tho brig over to the mate, and went up to Burrows's office to report. As I came in he looked up over his soec- tacles and I thought how different his look had seemed when last I had been in that office. "Well, you have returned. I thought you were lost.' "Yes, I have returned! I never expect ed to, though, and I have turned the brig over to the mate and taken my traps ashore. Here are the papers, bills of lading etc Good 'day. God bless you! Hope I'll never see you or your brig again." And with that I departed, a Larmier man than I had been for many a day. I was ambitious no longer. I had had my fill of ambition in the lofty position of master of the Maria. The Bldpper had skipped. A. P. S. UPrEB ASTORIA PUBLIC SCH00S. Summary for tho Month endinr Ort. 81st. ISS4.
