The Christmas music at Grace church -will be repeated at the eleven o'clock service to-day.

The Shubrh'J; came in from an ex tended northern trip yesterday, leav ing Neah bay at four o'clock Friday afternoon. The Shubricl: is always on a voyage about Christmas, the stormy experience of 81 and '82, for tunately, not being repented this time. The streets are in a very filthy con dition, so much so that in many places the wet and filth .squashes up on the shoes of pedestrians. The matter needs immediate attention as at present the streets are unsightly and unhealthy and walking is a mat ter of annoyance. J. G. Boss and J. C. Boss, aliko a good deal in name, though no relation to each other and livinf almost next door on the same street, found last Christmas that each one was celebrat ing his birthday. A littlo inquiry brought out a third Finley Mcin tosh, who, like the first two had double reason for a holiday. Sam'l Elmore, who for several years has been resident agent of W. T. Coleman & Co.'s extensive business, has resigned his position, his other business interests requiring his undi vided time and attention. On the Oregon yesterday, Mr. "V7. B. Town send arrived from San Francisco to take charge until a permanent ar rangement is effected. The masauerado ball that Cush- iug Cornet band aro going to give at Boss' opera house next Thursday evening will be preceded by a grand concert. Every one that heard the boys on the 17th of November said it was a surprise, and that they thor oughly enjoyed the music. The band is thoroughly organized and con stantly practising, and on New Year's eve should, and doubtless will have an overflowing house. Number I Yol. I of the Weekly World, Mr. Noltner's new paper is received. It is neat typographically and carefully edited: is an eight paged, six-column journal and has a good resume of the week's news. In politics it is decidedly Democratic, and in its salutatory it says It "will occupy what is felt to be a pressing void." The editor and proprietor is a newspaper man of large experience and knows how to get tip a lively journal. Captain Jacob Cousins, a pioneer shipmaster, died in San Francisco last Sunday, "When Harry Meiggs left San Francisco, in early days, as everyone knows financially involved, Captain Cousins, then in command of the American bark American, took him as passenger to Peru. For that service, Meiggs afterwards pre sented the captain with a halt in terest in the ship Washington Lib bey, and subsequently gave him the balance of the ship. By express yesterday C. "V. Fulton received a unique gift that is a mon ument of patient effort and detailed construction. It is in a large glass case and is the result of severnl months work of Baldatta and another convict at Salem. It repre sents a full rigged American ship bound in over the heaving waters of the Columbia bar. The vessel is a perfect model from keel to main tep: alongside are a tug and pilot schoon er and on the right looms up the cape light house. On the light house and vessel are the figures of men. A cutting from a blackberry buah was yesterday brought to the office by Harry Wood who cut it in front of his house at upper town. Bud and blossom and fruit in every stage were upon the stem, crowned by half a dozen lucious berries as black and ripe as blackberries over get. It is but a type of the Christmas climate of As toria; ripe fruit growing in the front yards of residences "and blooming roses climbing along the verandas and porches on Christmas day. A letter received yosterday from the old home nook says "Loaded teams aro crossing theriver(the Mississippi) on the ice." If etiee Astoria Musical Society.

Sand strum, a young Swecle, aged 29 was arrested here to day on suspicion of being connected with the niurder, of Emma Merloltin. There are several suspicious circumstances: His fore head, nose and one finger nre badly scratched, and there is blood on his necktie, which he says is paint. He says that lie was visiting that class of houses that night, but that he re ceive! the scratches by falling against a trunk. A dull hatchet was also found at the cabin where lie sleep"?. The matter is considered Jo be well worth examining. He will have a hearing on Monday. TROUBLE IX CHURCH. Detroit, Dec. 20.

He reports having Edgar and Henry Miller in the fall of . fo it ontsile ibo lmr at Xestncca 1873. Wm. Edgar was then in busi ness on the corner he now occupies, having been there over twelve years, and Henry Miller was proprietor of the ''Old Corner" saloon next door. They bought the lamp between them, giving fourteen dollars for it. The lamp when put up wa? a "big thing" in its way and attracted considerable attention. Miller at the time named Chenamus and Mam streets and had the names painted on the lamp. The oity council afterwards bought the lamp for seven dollars, and put up several more to keep it company, tak ing the old original one for a model. Tin "Altorcoru" Libeled. The -4 bercorn cleared for Queens town last Thursday and on Fridny was towed to Sand Island. Yesterday Pilot Campbell libeled the vessel, deputy U. S. Marshal Boss placing a keeper in charge. Campbell piloted the vessel m on her arrival m the river, and one of the nilots from the tugs being hired to tow her ont the former libeled the vessel on the! ground that as he piloted her in he had a right to take her out. U. S. Marshal Kelly was telegraphed to, his reply being to the effect that the ship agents in Portland could give the necessary bonds on which the vessel could be released and proceed to sea. It is thought the result will be a test case to decide the ques tion. Attention. Theie will he no meeting of ihe As toria Musical society Monday evening. Dec 28th. .1. X. OmrFiN. Prts. It.

Liberty Hall was filled last evening by a largo and orderly body of men. At eight o'clock A. M.Twombly called the meeting to order. Dr. T. T. Cabanisswas chosen chairman; Theo. Broemser officiated as secretary. The chairman took his seat after mak ing a few remarks, saying that what was done was for protection of labor and should be done quietly, orderly and legally. Any movement to drive out the Chinese could be mado only through congress. A call wa3 made for the resolutions that had been ordered prepared at a previous meeting. The resolutions not being immediately forthcoming A. M. Twombly moved that those present proceed to take preliminary steps to organize a lodge of Knights of Labor, which was agreed to. It was on motion decided that lists be opened for those who wished to sign ; about seventy-five came forward and signed. While the signing was going on, A. T. Brakke came forward and read a series of resolutions which he had prepared and which, on motion, were adopted as voicing the sentiment of the meeting. On motion the committee was discharged. On motion an execu tive committee consisting of Messrs. Twombly, Stockton, Brakke, Bawl iugs, and McCann, was appointed. The committee came on the stage and selected five others as follews: Messrs. Tatlou, Coflinbury, Schnring, Fox and Clinton. On motion it was resolved that tiie committee of ten as thus constituted be authorized to begin the formation of the proposed lodge. C. H. Stockton being called for, said that what was requisite was unity of effort, each one to work together and all done to be quietly, legally and ef fectively shaped to accomplish the intended object. It was then moved that A. M. Twombly be authorized to go to Port land and" take steps to havo the pro posed lodge of Knights of Labor or ganized in this city as soon as possi ble. The motion" was adopted. A collection was then taken up, amount ing to So.70, for the purpose of paying hall rent, and the meeting adjonrned to meet at the call of the chairman of the executive committee. A anA Office Oath.

The worst thing which has yet been told on Judge Dawne is that he left his wife in destitute circumstances in Alaska. Carlton B. Allen, Fort Canby, has accepted the appointment of post trader at that post, and entered upon his duties. Dr. Basil Norris, medical director, has been ordered to Fort Canby, to consult with the post commander as to the plan and site for the new hospital to be built at that post.

Oregon The Jfessenger, after ten years' continuous service on the Olympia Seattle route, has been forced there from bv the too great competition of the O. R. & N. Co.'s steamers. She will be laid up at Olympia. The governor on the recommenda tion of Brig. Gen. F. H. Lamb, haB appointed H. H, Northup, late Asst. Ajt. Gen'l. of this brigade, to the po sition of Asst. Ajt. Gen. and es-officio inspector general of the second bri gade, Oregon state militia, with Iho rank of major. A sad accident happened in the mill at South Bend, two weeks ago. Wm. Whiting, while working in the mill, had a large cant of timber fall on him, so seriously injuring him that he died three days after. Justice Skidmore held an inquest, as it was thought by some that he came to his death at the hands of others, but in vestigation proved nothing. It is reported, says the Yakima Sig nal, that the Union Pacific are very greatly angered over the move of the Northern Pacific in starting to build a branch road to Butte, and that in consequence they nre preparing to seek a northwestern outlet to tide water. It is said that the danger of this invasion has prompted the di rectors of the Northern Pacific to hasten the building of the Cascade branch. A farmer from Conei loaned his dog to a mau on Snake river to whom he had sold a flock of sheep to drive them home, n distance of thirty mile3. The drover found the dog so useful that instead of sending him homo he locked him up. Tho dog escaped, and concluding the drover had no moro right to keep the sheep than to lock him up, ho collected nil that had belonged to his master and drove them home again. The Salem Statesman says: There are now seven different summonses running in the Weekly Statesman, each calling on E. J. Dawne to appear and give the resons why he should not pay seven different claims, and informing him that in case he fails so to appear, that judgment will be tak en aguinst him. Tho house and lot belonging jointly to himself and wife will be levied on if Mr. Dawne does not hurry back and square off his scores. Christmas eve during the preva lence of a thick fog, the British bark Arabella, lumber laden for Australia, while in low of the tug Pilot, went ashore on the rocks off Trial island, a few miles from Victoria. In the ef forts to get her off tho Pilot was also stranded. Both vessels remain hard and fast. Steamers have gone to their assistance. The position is per ilous if a southeast wind springs up, as a heavy surf breaks on the side where the vessels lie. The Pilot is owned bv R. Dnnsmuir & Sons, of Victoria and is valued at SSO.OOO: in sured. The steamer Hearer, which is re ported to have been sunk at Victoria, B. C.f was built in London for the Hndson Bay company in 183o, and is said to be the first steam vessel that entered the Pacific. She was em ployed by the company for many years until recently, when she was sold to Victpria parties, who have used her for towage purposes. She is 101 feet long, twenty feet beam, and 11 feet depth of hold, and regis ters only 109 tons net. She is of the old type a wooden side-wheel steam erand has met witu many accnienis. She will probably be raised and put in service again. The crew at the Shoalwater bay lifo station, have already been the means of saving a life. On the morn ing of the 21st inst., says the Pacific Journal, the patrol of the life crew saw n plunger in the breakers south ward of the lighthouse. The alarm being given, Capt Brown with the crew went to tho rescue. Tho plunger, containing Daniel Brown, (ft Bay Center, was lying to an anchor in the breakers on the suit just insido where lay tlie wreck Abbey Cowpcr. A line was made fast to tho plunger, and she was towed to North Cove in safety. Mr. Brown says ho had ex perienced a terriblo night and had almost given up hope of escape when the life crew made its timely appear ance. The high tides did considerable damage in the low lands in Pacific conntv in the way of carrying away fences, bridges and dykes. On Shoal water bay, at the head of which there are several hundred acres already re claimed by dykes, the tide washed holes in the "embankments and let in the water, which caused consider able inconvenience to stock, and in some cases some sheep were drowned. H. S. Giles' dyke, at the mouth of Chinook river, in many places was washed completely away, allowing the tide to rush in and submerge his entire meadow. Mr. Gile has in course of construction a dyke which wnen compietea, wiu reacuu. uisiuuuts of one and a-half miles and will in close about five hundred acres, or at least, will reclaim that amount of land from the tules.
