Queen Victoria has concluded at last'to make the acquaintance of the people of Eugland. She has reigned nearly half a century, and her acquaintance has not ex tended beyond the limits of a very small and professedly select circle; but now she has formed the plan of holding invitation drawing rooms, tQ which what is called the "middle class" of London will be invited. These drawing-rooms are to be modeled after the recep tions at the White house at Wash ington. While the idea of engrafting Jeffersonian simplicity upon the etiquette of the court of England is a most excellent one, it must be admitted that it is a.striking inno vation, and prenents some gro tesque features. We believe it is permissible, if not expected, at the presidential receptions, that every guest shall shake the hand of the president. After the performance is over that injured member looks like a prizefighter's fist at the end of the sixth round. The queen will probably omit that feature of the entertainment, however. Queen Victoria is getting to be an old woman, and if she warrs to have what our English irieuds laugh at us for calling a "a real good time," sho'ought to unbend from her foyal avd imperial digni ty, .la' aside her scepter, take off her crown and put it away, or lend it to the Battenberg baby to play with, and send out for some more old ladies and have a tea party. They might bring their knitting work, come early and spend the afternoon and then take tea. What lots of good, solid comfort the queen could get out of such a reception as that. How she and the other old ladies could compare notes about their children and their children's children and dis cuss the relative merits of catnip tea, and gin and water for colic, and swap lies about the ages at which the babies walked and talked, and invent instances of youthful smartness and precoci ty. And then after supper, after the husbands of the visitors had got through their day's work and gone home, and eaten their suppers and Smoked their pipes, and washed up and put on a clean shirt, they could come around to the palace'and have a nice,.socia ble game of cards or play dom inoes or checkers until 9 o'clock and then all go home. If Victoria really wants to embrace Jefferson ian simplicity, that is the true way to do it Jind have a good time be side. Her majesty must have grown very tired of fifty years of dukes and earls and baronets and all that lot, especially if the ones who stray ovechere are fair samples. We should think she would like to try some men and women .for a change, and to see if she cannot find among the middle class some examples of the good, old stock of gentlemen and gentlewomen, who have sojnething beside a title to recommend them. 31an Wants a Tonic When there is a lack of elas ic energy In the sjbtem, shown by a sensation of languor aud unret in the morning, frequent yarning during the day aud disturbed sleep at night, Ilobteticr's Stomach Bitters fufuses un wonted tnergy into the enfeebled and nervous, endowing them with muscular energy, an abltlty to lepose healthfully, and digest without inconpniencc.

Dement & Co. Prom The Lower Nehalem. Onion Peak, Or., April 14, '87. Editor Asterian: There are three distinct settled valleys on the Nehalem river, the lower or coast settlement, the middlejsettlement, and the upper settlement: and, the way to get there at this or any other season of the year is to start down the Columbia, and to go to the upper settlement, get off at St Helens; if to the m'd lie settlement, stop off at Westport, or go to Astor a and go by way of Olaskanine; but, if to settle in the lowtr settlement, go to Astoria, and then by way of Seaside, or by steamer to Tillamook bay; thence by the beach to the mouth of Ne halem river. Farther than that there is no communication, not even a trail, between the lower settlement and middle settlement. A railroad from Astoria to Tilla mook city would only benefit the one settlement. We have much, good govern ment land here yet, the soil is ex ceedingly rich and easily cultivat ed, once cleared for the plow; but this being preeminently a grass, dairy and stock country no one wants to cultivate much of it. Settler. Died in Deep Distress. Lockport, N. Y., April 20. Captain Wirt Bush of the Twenty-eighth New Fork volunteers, and the first volunteer to enlist in the late civil war, died to-day in a hut, surrounded by filth, and hav ing none of the comforts of life. His age was 55. Before the war he was arrested for killing a canal boat captain named Frost. The driver of the boat had arrested Bush's brother Stephen, and the captain of the boat went to the assistance of his driver, when Bush btruck him with-a billet of wood, inflicting injuries from which he died n few days after at Rochester. Bush was acquitted on the ground of self-defense. At the the time of the war he was running a sa loon when the call for troops was telegraphed from Washington. He had his papers all drawn and en listed on April 15, 1861, and was the first volunteer in the regular army. He formed a company of his own, and it was enrolled nn def 28th regiment, which left here May 23rd for camp at Albany. His army record is a brilliant one, and has been attested to by hit superiors in various commands.

The piers will be made first of wood filled in with touk, and in time,. will be covered with iron caissons interfiled with con crete. The spans will be 250 feet long and the whole bridge a little over 3,000 feet in length. Work will be put under full headway as fast as the high water recedes. Horses, Cattle and Chickens.
