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.

LIST SIGHT OF THE CJLXP4.IGX.
Republican and Democratic I'roceniom and
Speeches.
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.,

THEBRIG "MAMA."
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.
