BE
EARLY DAYS IN ASTORIA.
But now, -while the up-river detach-i
raent was meeting with brilliant suc
cess, and the Indians, rejoicing in
their presence, were furthering their
every plan, we must descend the river
and glance for a moment at'the forest
shrouded fur emporium of Astoria.
To our surprise we discover that dn
ing our absence a stockado of up
ended trees has enclosed the houses.
We enter and in answer to our sur
prised inquiries the war-equipped de
signers responded that after the de
struction of the Tonquin it became
paiufully evident that their own lives
hung in the balance. The Indians
were forming n conspiracy to obli
erate the whole establishment.
In this extremity they proceeded
to fortify themselves in all haste. But
it would never do to have to main
tain themselves on a war footing,
locked up from the possibility of
peaceful traffic. Forthwith the wary
McDougal bethought himself of a
most potent expedient. Some yearo
before this as already noted in the
sketch of Lewis and Clarke's
journey the small-pox had run
a desolating career among the
Indians of this coast Some
tribes had been almost exter
minated. The Indians looked back
with shuddering and superstitious
horror to the scourge, believing it to
have been inflicted upon them by
some very bad temanimus combina
tion. Accordingly McDougal invited a
number of the most influential chiefs
to meet him on what he averred to
be most important business. Rising
among them with marked solemnity,
he began: "Warriors, you all know
the smallpox." Their frightened
faces were sufficient proof of the ex
cellence of their memories. "Well,
listen to me. I am the smallpox
chief." The blauk dismay which
whitened even the war-paint and
dirt upon tho royal countenances of
the chieftains was sufficient encour
agement to MoDougal to 1 rocced.
So, drawing forth a small bottle, he
continued in sepulchral tenes: "Be
hold this bottle. I keep the smallpox
in it. If the Indians once dare to at
tack us all I have to do is to uncork
this bottle and let the smallpox out,
and every man, woman and child will
die." So saying, with solemn gravity,
he dismissed his horror stricken
guests. ''Sicklied o'er with the pale
cast of thought," they sought their
respective tribes, warning, them on
forfeit of their lives, against incur
ring in any way. tho wrath of the
dreadful smallpox chief. For many
months thereafter McDougal was
known by that potent name.
But not content with successful
defensive warfare, McDougal, amor
ous as well as wary, resolved to ren
der still more secure the position of
the company and at the same timo
enlarge his own comfort by an offen
sive campaign. In pursuance of this
laudable design ho sued tho one-eyed
Chinook potentate for tho lily hand
of his daughter. The flatness of head
and outness of person or tuts "pisca
tory princess" rendered her very
high priced. But the fur magnate
of the northwest would not stand for
trifles and proved himself a fit suitor
for the royal hand. All the merce
nary preliminaries having been pros
perously arranged, the nuptials were
celebrated with great splendor. The
lingering fastidiousness of the bride
groom rendered copious ablutions
needful for the'removal of the fish-oil
wherewith the fairy form of the bride
had been laved. With diminished
unctuousness, therefore, and increas
ed clothes, tho daughter of Concomly
became the first lady of Astoria.

Northern Pacific Finances.
Tho Northern Pacific Bailroad is
said to be in most excellent financial
condition. All the fixed charges
have been fully provided for, and the
company sees its way clear to com
plote tho Casoade division. Some of
the money necessary has come from
the sale of first mortgago bonds on
the completed portion of the road.
Tho Deutehse bank of Berlin has
purohased from the company $1,500-
000 of the 4,000,000 of second mort
gage bonds, whioh have been in the
treasury since their issue. These are
the first of this class of bonds which
have been put upon the market, the
syndicate with whom the bonds were
originally placed never having made
any attempt to sell them. Tho bonds
sold to the Berlin bank are said to
have brought in the "neighborhood of
ninety. It is seldom that tho second
mortgage bonds of any American
company have been so well ulaced in
Europe recently. Their sale, as has
been said, places the company in a
ueciueaiy easy condition nnanciatiy
lor months to come.
Don't Give Up Yet.
It doesn't follow that a patient will
die because the doctors have eiven
him up," or that he will recover because
they promise. to. "pull him through." It

of Parker's Tonic Mr. Michael Gull
foylcof Bincbamton.N.Y.. was cured
of Rheumatism by it after ten years of
unspeakable suffering. Mr. It. W.

that he has sold over a thousand bottles
of Parker's Tonic through its reputa
tion for this and other cures.

AROUND THE
The ships that Hail from this ikjiI
to San Francisco take about one hun
dred and twenty-five days to make
the outward trip. The price usually
charged to carry a passenger js S300.
As one can go to San Francisco by
rail for half that sum in a week, it
would not at first appear thtil people
could be found to occupy the fine
staterooms that arc fitted up for the
use of passengers in all the California
clippers. But the existence of three
classes of monomaniacs -people who
are inordinately fond oi the sea,
drunkards and love-sick youths -furnish
occupants for the staterooms
and help to swell the profits of tho
owners of tho ships. A -young man
who likes the sea and whoso health
has been undermined by oilice work
and kindred frivolities, determines to
build up his system and enjoy himself
at the same time by taking a trip
around the Horn. The captain of the
clipper likes to see him come aboard.
He is not apt to be seasick, and is so
wonderfully and fearfully nautical
that he furnishes a considerable
amount of innocent amusement for
the first month at least. Then he
always insists upon hauling at
the braces or the halyards when those
ropes are to bo operated upon, and
so, though he is somewhat in ihe
way at first and manfully restrains
his desire for pulling and hanliug
just as he gets to bo handy, n good
deal of work can be got out of him in
a quiet way. The drunkard is an
other sort of a passenger. He goes
to sea not by choice, but on the rec
ommendation of his relatives and
friends, who generally offer him tho
alternative of an inebriate asvlum.
Ho usually smuggles enough liquor
aboard to keep him in his favorite ar
ticle of dnnk and good humor for
tho first menth: but after that he is
apt to get sick or ill-natured. Some.
times ho gets cured of his bad habit.
and is an agreeablo companion for
tho entire trip.
The love-sick youth mourns aud
sighs about the ship, get3 frightfullv
seasick, and writes long letters and
maudlin poetry between spells. He
has to be petted nnd waned on, and is
reallv a nuisance. If he recovers
from his love nnd seasickness, ho is
apt to become a good fellow and an
acquisition to tho society of the ship.
If the trip around tho Horn accom
plishes for these three classes of peo
ple just what it is intended to ac
complish (and if it does not, nothing
will), tho pale clerk comes back a
hale and hearty fellow, with an ap
petite that strikes terror to the heart
of his landlady, and a grip that makes
his friends wince as he shakes hands
with them; the drunkard comes back
with passion for liquor in subjection,
and the love-sick youth returns glad-
Iv to niany the heiress and wilhnglv
forget the French chambermaid. N.

PAYSON FEEIS ENCOURAGED.
New Yobk, January 8. The Times
"Washington special of January- 7th
says: Representative Lewis E. Pay
son of Illinois, who has repeatedly
been conspicuous in the house iu his
advocacy of bills to forfeit lands
granted to railway companies aud
unearned by failure to comply with
the obligations of the grants, said to
day that tho vote in the senate yes
terday on the bill to forfeit the lauds
granted to the Oregon Central Bail-
way was encouraging, no nau Heard
that the assertion had been made
that the vote was not significant, as
there was no objection to the passage
of the bill and that the senate would
affix Seuator Morgan's amendment
to all tho other land grant bills. For
his part he was unablo to see what
good reason for refusing to amend
this bill would not hold good in the
case of all the land grant bills. The
Oregon Central forfeiture was not
singular or peculiar. It would, no
doubt, be very gratifying to tho peo
ple who had come to regard the sen
ate as lost to all sympathy except
that with railroad corporations, to
discover that it was possiblo to get a
bill through that body which propos
ed to allow tho United States to re
take lands which have neither been
earned or purchased and which are
needed for purchasers in good faith.
What Will To-Morroir Brim; J
Don't know.Either clear weather or
cloudy. Either storm or sunshine.
Either sickness or health, or else,per-
haps, a middling condition half way
between one nnd tho other. If you are
ailing and poorly to-day, yon may be
enjoying relief to-morrow, if you will
only take Brown's Iron Bitters. If you
have this prince of tonics in the
house, look joyfully and hopefully for
the coming of the morrow. It oures
neuralgia, headache, dyspepsia, weak
ness, etc.
