Both will be presented in tho form of bills to the leg islature and pushed for all they aro worth. The grand jury met yesterday afternoon and found a truo bill against Chas.

He was well known in thiB city, where his sons long carried on the stevedoring bus iness. He was a native of Philadelphia, whence ho came to this coast in 1849. The remains will be takon to San Fran cisco on tho Oregon for burial. W. H. Merrill returned from Tho Dalles yesterday. He ras there all through the storm when between COO and 700 strangers and pilgrims were cooped up waiting for the snow to quit falling and drifting. Ho says beds were at a premium and meals were meals at the hotels. The discom fort and misery endured by those who were caught out in that cold storm can not be estimated. A notice appeared in The Astobian last week calling a meeting of the "League R. Y. O." Inquiry develops the fact that the leaguo is an organization with large and growing membership, hav ing for its purpose tho removal of fish traps from the Columbia river. A peti tion signed by several names was sent to Salem yesterday morning, to be intro duced in the house by Representative Leinenweber, asking the legislature to memorialize congress concerning the mat ter. About ten o'clock last Sunday night Mr. H. Du Boisson and family, on re turning home after spending the evening at the residence of a friend, were sur prised and alarmed to find a side window pried open. Hastily effecting an entrance at the front door they found that the thieves had effected an equally hasty exit at the back door. They were just begin ningto plunder when the family's return put them to flight. They had taken sheets and quilts from off a bed, laid them on the floor, and were about to make a grand haul, scooping all things portable into a big bundle. School began in District No. 18 jester day. Through the energies of the citi zens and school directors of the district a handsome school building stands on the commodious school site and affords splendid educational facilities for the children of the district. The number of pupils being constantly on tho increase, the directors have wisely concluded that the best interests of tho school required the employment of another teacher. The new position is filled by Miss Atkinson, of "Wisconsin, a vounc ladv of marked ability and highly recommended by load ing educators of that state. Tho hitch heretofore alluded to re garding the outlet toward Smith's Point still exists, and from the Washington Paoking company's property westward, though there is a good road, there is "No Thoroughfare." The facts as stated are as follews: The Cutting Packing Co., the Union Packing Co., and the "Washington Packing Co. went in togeth er, leased a line of shore, and built a rord from the west end of Concomly street to their property. Then tho last two named bought out the right of the Cutting. The countv then at considera ble expense made a fine road toward and beyond the Seaside Packing Co.'s prop erty, which is at present useless. The cannery folks aro willing to sell or make any fair disposition of their property, but naturally object to allowing constant public travel over a road which thoy them selves own, and which they must keep in repair. But we in this vicinity have bo many fine drives that the drive around by Smith's Point and on by Young's riv er isn't necessary. It is not even missed when there are so many other magnifi oent roads. CIRCUIT COURT PEOCEKDIXGS. January 19, 1838. Tatleb, J. H. J. Hansen vs. School District No. 1; continued for the term.

BAY The Captain and Crew Take to the Boats and Are Saved. On Sunday night news came to this city that another British vessel had gone ashore on Shoalwater Bay bar, close alongside the Abbey Cowper and under almost similar circumstances. From the capo station yesterday morning it was learned that the Tesselwas the British bark Dava Gnngadhur, 154 tons, Batters- by master. 23 days from Magdalena bay, and that she bad gone ashore on the morning of the 18th, the captain and ere ;v escaping in a boat "under circum stances of more than ordinary peril. Following is CAPTAIN BATTBOSEX'S STATEMENT. "My vessel was from Liverpool to Cal lao and Magdalena from whence I sailed December UUth. I was off the Columbia river on the 15th, last Thursday, but was driven to sea by a strong galo from tho southeast. On the night of tho 17th I shaped the ship's course so as to pass Toko Pt. lighthouse which was 15 miles off; the wind was from the northwest. At 2 o'clock Sunday morning I saw Toke Pt. light about 12 miles off, and immedi ately hauled the ship up with her head off the land, In fifteen minutes there came a dead calm, and shortly after a dense fog. About ii o'clock saw breakers to leeward, hove the lead and found sev en fathoms of water. I then got tho starboard anchor ready, lest she should go ashore, and let go the anchor in about 7 fathoms of water with 30 fathoms of chain attached. About 4 o'clock n light breezo from tho south sprung up, and I slipped the anchor and chain and stood off shore. In about half an hour the wind haulod to the west; I stood on, Eassod close to breakers on Sboalwator ar and kept standing on until abreast of Toko Pt. The fog cleared a little and showed the tops of the haadlands; there were heavy breakers close to leeward, and the wind being very light the ship drifted down to them. 'Seeing that she was sure to go within half an hour I de cided to woar her around and try to get anchorage inside tho bar." "I wore the ship around and stood on, there being scarcely any wind; the sea was heavy, and tho fog closed down again. About 8 o'clock tho ship struck and swung around broadside to the sea, thumpmgly heavily and the soa breaking over her. About nine o'clock Igot out one boat and all hands left the ship; it kept three men busy baling the boat out to keep her from sinking, the heavy sea fill ing it at every lurch; about helf past ten wa got to shore. I left both mates and the crew in charge with instructions to go on board if there was any chance and at four o'clock started for Astoria to get assistance if possible" xne Vewa uungauhur was owned by F. G. Fry fc Co., of Liverpool,, and was consigned to Meyor, Wilson & Co.; she was built in Glasgow in 1857, was valued at 4,500, and was for many years en gaged in tho East India trade. There is littlo doubt that the vessel is a total loss. Nothing was saved, the captain not even securing the ship's artiolea. He returns to the scene of the wreck this morn ing. PUB. DOCS. This is the time of year when the heart of the-average constituent is made glad by the receipt of sundry ponderous tomes from "Washington, sent under the frank of the congressman from his dis trict. This is a pleasant style of litera ture and is eagerly sought after. Soma of the narratives printed at publio expense are thrilling in their wierd recital. One volume on the "Diseases of American Swine," is having a wide circulation. Once get started reading this fascinating work and the ordinary demands of hu manity, such as sleeping, eating, etc, are forgotten or rushed hastily through in an insatiate eagerness to get to the end and see what finally became of the hog. This office is in receipt of a large num ber of entertaining volumes kindly passed through the postoffice window by Post master Chance. One in particular on "The Domestic Habits of the Flea." is of such a soul-absorbing nature as t cause the reader to forego the ordinary duties 01 Hie in a feverish nasto to end the nrst volume and take up the second. There is another on "Tho Value of Cotton in Germany." that is remarkably well writ ten. Probably the most interesting of these works is a little brochure of C75 pages finely printed, entitled, "A Compen dum of Decisions in the Patent Office f 10m 1820 to 1882." This is a rare literary treat; is ia wniiea in a laocinat'ng siyie, and besides its frequent change of sub jects has a charm peculiarly its own. There are about thirteen tons of it stowed away in the postoffios here and for tnose mat iikb mat sort. 01 tning mat is about tho sort of thing they would like. Hoi and Guu Club fleeting.

No. 3 By'Hoult, providing f er a con stitutional convention at Salem to meet the first Monday in October, to be com posed of ninety members apportioned from the various counties identically with the present representation in the legislature, these delegates to be chosen at a special election the first Monday of Next Jnne. Membership of the legisla ture does not bar membership of the pro posed convention. Delegates are to re ceive tho samo compensation as members of tho legislature and to be paid from tho state treasury in the same manner. This bill docs not differ practically from that introduced in. the house by Cox, except ing in the appotionment of members, Cox's bill providing that the vote cast at tho last general election be the measure of apportionments. The population of the state is Tery differently divided now from the time of the apportionment un der which members of the legislature aro now elected, and tho Cox bill will fcive much nearer equal and "fair represen tation of the various eections of the state. No. 4 By Lee, dividing the slate into threa districts, with authority to main tain one normal school in each. Tho counties of Benton, Clackamas, Clatsop, Columbia, Lane, Linn, Marion, Multno mah, Polk, Tillamook, Washington and Yamhill to compose District No 1. The counties of C003, Curry, Douglas, Jackson Josephine, Klamath and Lake, to compose No. 2. Tho counties of Baker, Crook, Grant, Umatilla, Union and Wasco, shall compose district No. 3. Students of eithor district may enter any normal school. The normal school for the first district to be located at Monmouth in Polk county. Location for second and third districts yet to bo fixed. The bill provides elaborately forltho organization, course of study and conduct of such schools. No. 5 By Beed, providing for tho equalization of taxes and for tho appoint ment of state assessors in each county. It provides that the governor, secretary of state and stato treasurer, shall fix tho amount of state tax to bo paid by the various counties. On the first Monday of January, 18SG, and every three years thereafter, the government shall appoint an assessor for 6ach county, whose pay shall be $6 per day for time of actual Service, the bill elaborately sets forth rules for making of assessments and its purpose is to distribute tho burden of taxation more fairly than under the pres ent law. No. 7 By Lee, providing that only American citizens above 21 years of age shall be licensed as pilots on tho Colum bia and Willamette rivers. The pilot board is to regulate tho number of pilots to bo licensod. The bill repeals the pres ent schedule of pilot charges, and pre sumably loaves its regulation to tho pilot commission. It is declared that, mas much as the requirements of the present law huve driven from the bar pilot grounds all Oregon pilots, and substituted Washington territory pilots whose com pensation is $2 per foot moro than that of Oregon pilots, this set shall take ef fect upon its approval by the governor. No. 13 By Beed, increasing the com pensation of supremo jndge to $2500 per year. The bill is identical with the measure introduced in the house for the samo purpose. No. 42 By Miller, to create a board of railroad commissioners; it provides that on the last day of the present session the legislature shall assemblo in joint con vention and elect three commissioners, to hold office for two years. One commis sioner must be a Republican, one a Dem ocrat, and one shall be experienced in railroad business. One member shall be a competent lawyer. The governor is au thorized to fill vacancies in board. No persons having any pecuniary interest in any railroad line of the state shall bo a commissioner or have any official con nection with tho board. Said board shall have general supervision of all railroads in the state. They shall examine the manner in which thoy are operated with reference to the accommodations of the fiublic and their compliance with the aws of the state. Railroad companies aro required to furnish the board with complete statement of their affairs. No detail is to be withheld under severe pen alties, but the commissioners are not re quired to give publicity to such informa tion. To the commission is given the authority to fix rates of passenger and freight charges, and there is no appeal from their authority. The commission ers aro to be paid an annual salary of $2,000, and their clerk an annual salary of $1,800. STKAMKR SCHEDULE.

Dement I -THE SENATORIAL SITUATION. Under date of the 18th, tho Xcics Salem correspondent writes as follews: Tho oppressive dullness of to-day, re sulting from tho general scattering after Friday's adjournment, finds some relief in the statement that there will be "lots of 'em" hero during the week. The work that would have been done last week by tho makers of senators holds over as "unfinished business" for the third houso, and these outside members have a busy week before them. The most noted instance of unfinished business in Salem is Lish Applegate, who came within one vote of the caucus nomination for sena tor a dozen years ago. He is on hand under this head, and stands just as good a chance vs two-thirds of tho other aspi rants. No one among all tho wiso politi- cians hero has foresight enough to give ' an opinion concerning the senatorial sit uation, which is regarded as of the slight est value, while the candidates aro so numerous that ono must carry a list of them to bo always suro of rcinombar ing who thoy are. Sol. Hirsch looms up as the most state ly in the list at this stage of the contest. He is more than a name, and his pres ence does his case no harm. He looks tho character, with his massivo head and predominance of intellectuality in oye and every other feature, and no one to see and talk with him would go away sur- Jirised that he should cultivate a fancy or venturing outside tho walks of com mercial lifo to try his forces whero Disraeli and Judah P. Benjamin walked boldly to the front. Thoso who aro in clined to harbor religious prejudices against Hirsch, must feel rather ashamed of themselves for it, when they como to know him well, or even to take his meas ure in a passing glance. Still it is true that all these advantages will not by themselves elect a man, and Hirsch, who, liko every ono who gets to thinking about a place of honor, longs for it the moro as iwj uncertainty grows upon mm, as iar from easy in his mind over the prospect. The shifting sands of selfish personal ;as suranoes always annoy tho feet of tho foremost candidates, and in this instance thoro must bo ono or two dashes nt tho test of voting before any man, candidate or outsider can tell whether or not tho forces counted on will stand together. If the work for George and Williams is progressina at all, it must be that some strength is being drawn from Hirsch, and one can hardly suppose that John Ward is "fooling away" his time. In his sagacity -and experience George cortainly has the advantage 01 tho others. The Williams candidacy seems not to alarm the others. He is so coldily indifferent to men that in these calculating times of ours his case can never be worked up by Air. tcott alone. The influences that ho can use for Williams would work with the same effect if turned in for himself or Lair Hill a littlo farther on, and either one of these gentlemen is as well known and has as many friends in Oregon as Wil liams has. It is hard to penetrato the mysteries of corner conversations suffi ciently to see how tho Williams case can be effectively brought to the front. A stampede to McConnell would have moro warm blood in it, while a break for Hill would be just as well based on care ful groundwork, ihis deduction mav seem to lift four possibilities out of tho pot, and leave tho others to boil by them selves, but it does not; there is too much to both fear and hope for in tho whim of an hour, to make it possible to kill off anybody thus early in this eventful pre liminarv week Tho undercurrent for Mitchell is quite as likely to be never reached as it is to play any part in the struggle. There are two things that the moro intense friends of Mitchell will not do. They will neither make fools of themselves nor drag him forth to sit up on a gridiron. They understand that it will need nono of the munkoy business of secret initiation to help their man. He will jump to tho front, lour-in-hand, with all the passengers "set," or remain in the stable. More than this, tho best politicians at Snlem are nil nt work for this or that new man, and the name of Mitchell is heard only us a pleasant echo of '82. At Fmnk Fabre's. Board for S220 a month.
