What a world of wealth there will be in the fisheries of the north west when they aro developed! Tho funeral of the late H. R.

General Gibbon will im mediately assumo command of thq de partment of tho Columbia, in place of General Miles, who succeods Gen. Auger in command of the department of tho Missouri. Boston is doing what The Astoeian tried to get Astorians to do last winter cut I0030 from tho telephono monopoly and go it alone. Boston saves $10,0 J3 a month by it, and gets just as good service. Tho only difference, the money stays at home, instead of going to swell tho two hundred per cent, dividend of the Bell monopoly. Well, the visiting delegations are about through with. Seaside visitors are plenty, but thev don't expect any special atten tion and como just because they feel it is good to be here. Astoria has enter tained three parlies of visitors, number ing altogether nearly SOD people in the last six weeks which speaks well for the hospitality of our citizens. And now that is all ovor, a word of ap preciation is due the efficient county superintendent Rev. M. D. Wilson for the energy, tact, and unwearying efforts he displayed during the week of tho state teachers' association. It was an arduous duty he had to perform, and one in which tho consciousness of duty well performed is tho only reward. The ladies of tho coffeo club wish it stated that at a recent meeting of tho cmo a unanimous vote of thanks was tendered the executive committee of the firemen's tournament for their handsome gift of G0. The receipt of tho money was duly appreciated, and tho conscious ness that the club occupies so prominent a place in the kindly feelings of tho de partment was oven moro gratifying to its members. The receipts of tho entertainment on Friday evening, closing tho sessions of the state teachers' association, were $183. The total expenses of the association were $144.75, leaving a balance of $38.25, which"vrill be devoted to printing in pam phlet form, the proceedings of tho asso ciation. The association paid all its ex penses for the entiro week out of the $183 which were received for the enter tainment Friday night, so that the week was a social and financial success. TnEAsToniAS has received from the department of state iho consular reports for 18S4, on labor m foreien countries, which aro contained in three large vol umes, each filled with valuable informa tion on tho subject treated. Also from tho life saving service, tho report of tho operations of that most valuable and hu maiio branch of the government during tflfe year 1851. Hydrographic charts were also received la.st evening that, are of in terest to all connected with shipping. Before sending to Portland or San Francisco for any job printing, for blank books, receipt books, cr anything that way. oet an estimate from The Astoeian. Just consider this as yon would any oth er manufacturing establishment. We employ considerable help and paj- ont considerable money that goes into circu lation right here in town. We ask just the same show that any business wan asks, and practice what wo preach not to send money away when you can get just as good at homo for the same price. WASHINGTON LETTF.K. Washecgto:;, July 4, ISC. While walking through tho navy yard tho other day, I met Commodore Sicard. "This," said the commedore, holding up a chocolate colored, six sided prism an inch .and a half in diameter, with round hole through it, and weighing over two ounces, 'this is a grain of the celebrated cocoa powder of which you have hoard so much.' "Is it made of cocoa?" I asked. "No, there is probably not a parliclo of cocoa in it. It takes its name from its color, but its composition is it profound secret. It is made abroad and furnished to tho world at :i reasonable rate, but 1 think wo shall soon be able to nmko it ourselves. There are exerimcnis g-iing forward hero which we expect to be crowned with success. The particular points of excellence of the cozo.i pnv tier over the old kind are Hint it burns slower at the beginning mid more rapidly toward the end. In other words "it ha1? u tendency to burn moro rapidly under increasing pressure. With tho black powder it is difficult to keep down the pressure, but it requires high pressure to make cocoa burn rapid ly." "Is the cocoa powder economical?' 'No, I cannot say that it is. It ta!;es a good deal of it to imp: ess n high velocity to a projectile. Rut when everyihinj; is properly adjusted it is not impossible to given velocity of more than 2.0J1 feet per second to a projectile." I th inkvd tho commodore and was glnd to note an other evidence that our navy was waking up. Numerous stones have been published in regard to the physical condition of lion. Malcolm Hay, nrst assistant post master general, ife certainly has tho appearance of being iu poor health. He sits in an armed easy chair, with his head resting lauguidly back upon tho cushion. Ho m very pale, and his voice sounds Iiko that of a sick man, or of ono who is just recovering from a severe ill ness. 1 am tolu, however, that he is not mn,i nn,1 "nllMiila" in bis v.nrk virv"f1i!;. ac ino n id o -Vfti-i' .wi. ,,i orii,- H;En, i mnn uhvsicallv. to be sure.' but h enr i fully husbands his strength and cecom-1 plishes a great deal. Ho works nt his correspondence every night after he hast please tho congressmen and senators, who have sometimes crowded him pretty nam ior appointments ior meir constit- , uents. He is determined that congress- j men suau oo nem responsioie ior inc recommendations which they make, and has sometimes been rather pointed in ! tho questions ho has asked, lie man-! ifostly believe.? in doing Ikh'uch in a businesslike way. j A goo J story is told of one of the' recent western appointees in the treasury ' department. He had only just been in ; staueu, wucn. uappeuiiig into one oi me ' returned it with tho verbal messago "Tell Mr. that ho better get thei prairie mud off his boot heols before ho J sends to me for silver trays." j Postmaster-general Vilas is tho last man in the cabinet who was expected to no a civu sen-ice reiormer. ana vet i wa; told by a candidate for office to-ilHV, that he lectured nearly evervone who ca'lls np- on him on this subject: "It is extrcmolv difficult to see the postmaster-general at I all, and when ono does see him it is only i for a minute, and it is rather moiioton ous.to have that minute occupied with n lecturo on civil service reform. Bat that is tho way very orten," said this gentle man. Tho smglo rato letter postage law, I which reduces the rate to two cents nu ounce, instead of two cents for oach half j ounce, as heretofore, has made very littlo change in the department. But the . change is in the lino of a reduction of taxation and will bo universally wel- and will bo universally wel- Iho present limit stops tho flow ion, description and business ho most interesting point.

Hon t'leKla: or Kararia Called Cot It. for It aad The lang.cf Bavaria is fond of opera, but not fond of sitting in tho presencs of an audience; therefore, it has sometimes occurred in Munich that when an opera had been concluded and tho players wero getting off their paint and finery, a com mtnd has come to them to get their paint and finery on again. Presently tho king would arrive, solitary and alone, and tho players would begin at tho beginning and do the entire opera over again with only that ono individual in tho vast, sol emn theater for an audience. Once he took an odd freak into his head. High up and out of sight, over the prodigious stage of the court theater, is a maze of interlacing water pipes, so pierced that in caso of lire innumerable little thread like streams of water can ba caused to descend: and in caso of need this dis charge can bo augmented to a pouring Hood. Tho opera proceeded; it was a piece with a storm in it; the mimic thun der began to mutter, the mimic wind be gan to rail and sough, tho mimic rain began to patter. Tho king's interest rose higher and higher; it developed into enthusiasm. He cried eut: 'It is good, very good indeed! But I will hate real rain! Turn on that wa terr The manager pleaded for a reversal of the command, said it would ruin the cost ly scenery and the splendid costumes, but iho king cried: Xo matter, no matter; I will have real rain! Turn on the water!' So the real rain was turned on and be gan to descend in gossamer lances to the mimic llower beds and gravel walks of the stage. The richly dressed actresses nnd actors tripped about singing brave ly and pretending not to mind it. The king was delighted his enthusiasm grew higher. He cried eut: "Bravo, bravo! Moro thunder Moro liyhluing! Turn on more rain!"' Tho thunder boomed, tho lightning glared, the storm winds raged, the deluge Ijwired down. Tho mimic royalty en tho stag, with their soaked satins clinging to their bodies, slopped around ankle dep in tho water, warbling their sweet est and best, the lidd!crs nndcr the eaves of tho fitngo sawed away for dear life, with th? cold overilow spouting down tho back? of their necks, and the dry and lnprv King s::l in his lofty box and woro his eioves to ribbons applauding. 'Moro yet! cried tho king; "more vet let loose all tho thunder, turn on all the water. I will hang tho man who raises an umbrella!' When t'jis most tremendous and effec tive storm that had ever been produced in any theater was at last over the king's apj robation was measureless. He cried: "Mrgnificent! Magnificent ! Encoro ! Do it again!" But tho manager succeeded in per suading him to recall the encore, and said the company would feel sufficiently rowarded and complimented in tho mero fact that tho encore was desired bv Ins "rk for :l wk afterward, the fine COS- tnmes were spoiled and no end of 'inor damage was done by the remark njIe stornn " Ct:cItSc;s.s Ar::ica SIr iitm, ami positively cures Piles, or no niy requimS. ltjs guaranteed to give Ju.rf,.,.t satisfaction, or itinnev refunded, irjee ' eents per box.

Nobody who gazed upon-his gossamer limbs, his spectacled orbs, or tho airline crease which divided the hyacinth locks into equisections on either sido of his bulg ing brow, could doubt this for an instant. Tho managing editor, an earthly crea ture, however, had his doubts, but, as the musical critic had como well recom mended, tho managing editor stifled his doubts, aud showed the young man to his desk. Tho first job the young man was to do was the opera houso on the opening night. Ho sallied forth in even ing dress with a fall score under his arm, with his ear bulging vvith melodious anticipations. Returning and having finished his critique, ho took it to tho managing editor, who b3de him to sit dowa nnd read tho stuff aloud The young man's soul was terribly shocked that his splendid composition should be called "stuff." However, he began, with as good grace as ho could under tho cir cumstances, as follews: "Tho tuneful sweetness of tho moestro's chef d'eeuvro was never interpreted with moro enga ging esprit do corps than by tho artists in this melodious aggregation. Tho chromatic tints wero laid on with a prod igality of fervor that sublimated the apoggiatura and apotheosized the contra puntal tone-waves" "Hold up!" exclaimed tho managing editor. What do you menu by all that?" "Mean !" ejaculated tho musical critic. 'How do you suppose I know! I'vo done work for tho great dailies, and nobody ever asked what I meant. Shall I go on?' Tho managing editor nodded, and tho young man proceeded, "and apotheosized tho contrapuntal tone-waves with dyna mic expulsion. Signora Screechowl, lhe primest prima donna, was in her best voice, improved as it was by a slightly catarrhal shading, which eradicted thoso incisivo murmurs which ticklo only tho ears of tho amateur lover of the warb ling music. Her embonpoint was grand ly effectivo and no word can hopo to de pict tho cataclysmic effort of hor dolco far niente in tlio bravura passage- in the seventh bar," "I can't make it out a bit," sadly mur mured tho managing editor; "but as you havo worked on tho great dailies I .sup pose it's all right." "Tho young man said "yes," and wont on, ''aignor Macaroni, tho tenor assoluta attacked with consummpto aplomb, ad vanced in column by division, closed in mass, and carried tho works of the great maestro by an adroit movement in echelon." "Was there a battle scene in tho op era?" innocently inquired tho managing editor. "Battle Eceno!"' exclaimed the young man contemptuously. "No, sir, no bat tle other than the fo:ceful conflict of lj-rical acoustics." "Ah!" said the managing editor, "I un derstand. Proceed." "But tho climax of mellifluous grand eur was attained wheuMdlle. Lotoni, tho ultracontralto, entered the lists. The coolish freshness of her tuneful tonguo was something astounding in its castidi van effects. The chiaroscuro of her an dauteadagio wa9 complemented perfectly by tho middlo distance of her adagio andante, and tho two achievements to gether coruscated through the houso with all tho craee aud witchery of tho gemini of astronomical familiarity." "I guess that will do," said the manag ing editor. "I don't caro to hear any moro to "night. I'm not feeling very well, and a few moro lines might send mo into a brain fever. Your critique is a splendid one tho best by far I over heard, of the kind." .1 XI an on a Drugstore. Never wps such a rush made for any Drug Store a is now at W. E.
