Bell, postmaster at upper Astoria, says he has received a part of his official furniture; that the O. II. & N. boats have signified their in tention to slop with the mail when ever so instructed by the department, that hi3 commission has been duly re ceived, and that so far the route has not been officially established. The low rate of fares east is send ing a good many back to see the home spot. Any one intending to go can get tickets from F. E. Shute at the O. R. Sr N. Co.'s office on just as good terms as iu Portland, and can have the additional convenience of having their baggage checked from Astoria to their journey's end. In the case of the state vs. Harris A: Wright, a test suit regarding the constitutionality of the Keady liquor law, notice of appeal was esterday served on Fulton Bros., counsel for respondents and defendants.

He will have charge of two canneries, tho British American and British Columbia, and expects to pack 33,000 cases salmon. The Firemen TournaniPHt. The fire boys here are baginning to make a good mauy inquiries about the proposed date of the next fire men's tournament, and why a meet ing of the executive board of the state association has not been called to consider thi3 matter. The board meeting must be held three months before the date of tho tenrnament: and the lime is way past now for holding it on the regular dato in Juue. The bovs in the valley would like to hold the tournament and as sociation before harvest begins if possible, and before every body leaves town. They are perfectly willing to allow the Astoria companies all the favor possible, but the Astoria com panies can get here by the first of July, and the tournameut should not be held later than that date to suit the people of Salem.

The revenue cutter Corwin, which has been iu the river for the past week, yesterday received telegraphic orders from Washington to return to San Francisco, in answer to a tele gram for instructions sent from here to Washington by Capt. Ilealy last Friday afternoon. A few remarks are iu order. The Corwin was ordered north from San Francisco on a cruise about two weeks ago. There is very little for her to do in San Francisco nothing in fact and to retain her with three others who have a little to keep them moving, an order was obtained some time ago placing the Corwin at the service of the San Francisco post of fice department, rather thin, but yet it served every purpose. The Corwin was built on the Co lumbia, intended for this service, by right belongs here and work could be found for her. On his arrival here Capt. Ilealy reported to Collect or Hobson -and further on to Collect or Shurtleff at Portland. There ap pearing no effort to regain or retain the presence of the cutter, she goes back. The necessity of such a branch of govermental service is now even greater on the lower Columbia and adjacent coast than it was at the time the Corwin was built for use in these waters. For obvious reasons the ves sel should be ordered here with head quarters at Astoria. It is tho belief of The Astoriax that prompt repre sentation of this matter to the gov ernment through the proper chan nels will place the vessel here where she should be. There is no favor about the thing. It is a matter of business, an act of delayed necessity and public attention is directed to the existing state of facts. Every r.ady Her Own maker. Dress- Mrs. 3f.

Per advertisement in The Abtori an, tho lighthouse tender Shubrick was offered at public auction at Main street wharf at noon yesterday. A large crowd had gathered and at a few minutes past noon E. C. Holden, the auctioneer, read the conditions of the sale, substantially that tho right waa reserved to reject any or all bid3; that the bidder to whom she was knocked down was to deposit twenty per cent, of the purchase mon ey that day; that the gorernment offi cials at Washington were to deter mine whether the vessel was to be turned over to the highest bidder or not; that iu case she was the purchas er would be placed in possession; if not, the deposit would be returned to him, and that the vessel was sold just as she lay. The sale waa started by Martin Foard with a bid of 81,000 and went by 250s and 100s to 4,300, bid by C. Dourbrow, of San Francisco. An other party who had participated in the "bidding waa at this juncture sup posed to have bid 4,400 and at this price the vessel was cried for a short space of time, when it being about to be knocked down to him he dis claimed the bid and refused to have it appear as his. Some discussion ensued, when the auctioneer started the sale again: this lime the bids started at 2,500 and went by slow degrees to 3,200 at which figure the vessel was sold to C. Dourbrow. That gentleman stat ed that if the sale was confirmed she would be taken to San Francisco, and that he had bought her for him self. An official report of the sale was telegraphed to Washington yester day afternoon, and an answer will probably be received to-morrow re garding the acceptance or rejection of the bid. The general expression is that the vessel "went very cheap." It is be lieved that should the sale be con firmed the vessel will be immediately annexed to the steamship line of Goodall, Perkins & Co., in the Pa cific Coast Steamship Co. THE NEW MAJOR GENERAL. President Cleveland has nominated Brig. General O. O. Howard command ing the department of the Platte, to suc ceed Maj.-Genoral Pope as commandant of the division of the Pacific coast. Oliver Otis Howard was born in the yearlKJO. At 20 years of age he was graduated at Bowdoin college. Soon af ter lie was admitted to West roint where he graduated in 18T4. His first appoint ment subsequently was in nelu duty, in the Indian war then in progress in the state of Florida. Ha returned to the academy where he served as assistant professor of mathematics. In dune, lbbl, be was made a colonel oi volunteers, and foucht at the battle of Bull Bun as commander of a brigade. He waa promoted to be a Bng.-General the same year. Continuing in active ser vice he was in tho Virginia campaign, and lost an arm at the battle of Fair Oaks. He was made a Major-General of volunteers in Xovember,1862, and com manded the second army corps at the battles of Chancellorsville and Gettys burg. His brilliant generalship in this engagement was honored with recogni tion by congress which passed resolutions of thanks to General Meade and him for the victory. By a subsequent vote the name of General Hancock was included in the resolutions. In 18G3 Howard's command was in Teane333ee, where ho participated in the battles of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge. The next year he was in command of the fourth corps in the army of the Cumber land, and took part in the engagements fought at Dal ton, Besaca and Kenesaw Mountain. Subsequently he assisted in the siege of Atlanta, and commanded I under baerman in tue historic march to the sea. After the termination of the war he ac ted as commissioner of the freedmen's bureau, an office which he held until 1872. His next appointment was as special commissioner of Indian affairs. In De cember, 18C3 he was made a Brigadier General in, the regular army, and the next year brevet Major- General. the Indian frontier, his Uez Perce cam paign in I87d, being productive of con siderable energetic criticism on the part of civiuans. After 3Iany Day.. Richard Carruthers, while search ing among the drift wood on the ocean beach a short distance south of Leadbetter point, on Monday last, found a portion of a bureau. Upon breaking it open he found a tin box containing a number or papers- some of which are in the .Norwegian or Swedish language. Among the papers is au act of naturalization from the 19th district court of Cali fornia to Jorgen Christensen. There is a letter and commission from J. Pinet. San Francisco, to Capt.

Editor Asteriak: I have been hunting the man that is to get such high figures for his paok and he can't be found; he does not exist Tho principal houses east write here that they will not buy till the end of the season. There is old salmon of last year in the warehouses on the Columbia river unsold; salm on also in New York, and then talk about bare markets! Why, the California Grocer is owned or manipulated by thaf specu lator who is trying to unload his has ty purchases. It is about time these publishers were giving the public something like fair statements of markets, and supply and demand instead of these one-sided stories gotten up by specu lators. Street corner talk on the salmon market is about this: That not one of the sales named in the recent article in the California Grocer was for a Higher price than L07K Per dozen, and the rest from that down to 1.00. There are other packs than those therein named which have been sold at one dollar, and some reported as low as 97J cents. What can be the object of such newspaper reports, ex cept that a certain house undertook sometime ago to control the market and bought the greater part of the salmon that has been sold. It now finds itself with contracts to purchase nearly 200,000 cases at one dollar, and one dollar and seven cents per dozen, and has becomo frightened and wants to unload. So captures the California Grocer and blows these great fish stories right in the face of truth and common sense. People out of work east, thousands starving in the old countries, bread very cheap and then talk of salmon being high at the beginning of a season that pur poses to pnt up the largest pack ever known. Caxkkr. THE REPORT CONFIR3IED. MarshfibiiD, Or., March 19. The steamer JJeda, Healey, owned by Simpson Bros., sprung a leak about forty miles off Cape Perpetua, on the 15tb, and wa3 abandoned by the crew.

A brutal creature named Stephen J. Klimpt ended his miserable life on Thursday, March 11th, by blowing his head to pieces with liis shot gun. He lived six miles below this city on Chenowith creek, and has been noto rious for his cruelty to his hard work ing wife and children of which ho had five: a boy 15, a girl 12, and three younger. The family lived in a cabin with no fire place and no beds for the older children. He had made the oldest boy and girl sleep in the barn all winter, and the girl had her face frost bitten in one of the bitter cold nights, and when the inquest was taken by Coroner Phillips the boys still slept in the barn. Klimpt often beat his wife unmercifully, and she, it is well known, had to cut wood and load, and haul it to town to get supplies, while he .vas hunting about or drunk if he could get liquor. Five days after the birth of one of her children he made her get up and drive a load of wood into town to sell, and at another time she started to carry a bag of flour on her shoulder from town to the cabin, a distance of six miles, but was helped by some neighbor going home. His last act of cruelty was to strike his wife on the head, on Sunday, with au oak grub 3 feet long and as big a3 a man's wrist, which was used as a fire poker. A complaint was entered and he was put under 40 bonds on Monday for appearance for trial on Tuesday, the 9th, but he felt sure that his conduct would be opened to the public and coward-like he blowed the top of his skull off; having written a letter to finnntv .Tndrrp TjipIir nncl nnp tn Sheriff Crossen that when they re-' ceived them he should be dead. Not apearing at the time of trial, Deputy Sheriff Geo. Herbert went after him. His neighbors, Thomas and Marquis, had found him iu the edge of an old field, where he had stuck a handker chief onto a post with his knife, and his hat onto another post, and had laid down and placed the muzzle of his gun to his mouth and discharged it with the ramrod which he held in his hand. A piece of his skull as big as his hand was blown 60 feet. Cor oner Phillips summoned a jury com posed of Z. E. Byers, Lawrence No lan, P. Buffner, C. Neighbnrger, Geo. Herbert and L. Snipes, who returned a verdict of suicide. The neighbors will now be disposed to help the poor woman and her familv. Waseo Co. Sun, 17.
