HER MAJESTY AT HOME.
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.

Victoria, April 20. Indians
who arrived to-day from the west

thirty miles south of Cafo Flat

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.

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.

For colic and rubs. for lung fever, or

can recommend it to every one iiavinn

.have lost none where the Regulator
was given promptly and reuularly.
