This will be a fine excursion and worth go ing with. The London Grocer of August 13th reports as follews: "The situation in salmon has further improved, and in the prevailing scarcity on the spot, prices have run almost wild. Land ed parcels of Columbia river fish have been eagerly taken at 27s. to 28s. per case for prime qualities in tall tins, and contracts have been made for arrival on similar terms, say 27s. Gd. Fine salmon in 'flat' tins commands 31s. Owing to the severe falling off in the supply this year, it is now outstripped by the home consumption, and in (heir nuxi ety to secure sufficient for their cur rent wants, the trade are giviug almost any prices that are asked." Again the Portland Journal of Commeicc lies under a mistake. In its issue of the 3d it snys: "The NilJi paid $300, for towage iuward only at the bar.' The Nilh pnid S300, for towage inward and outward. The regular rate was $375. She is one of the contract vessels, with 20 per cent, off leaving $300 net, for towage in and out. The Journal of Commerce doesn't know what it is talkiug nbont This makes thre$ straight, wilful lies it has told about the Columbia bar, and by its uublnsh ing mendacity gains a notoriety that would be denied it by its lack of merit If you can't help being stupid and ignorant two unpardonable sins in journalism at least try to bo truthful. Chamber of Commerv. The Astoria-chamber of commerce met in their new and handsomely furnished rooms last eveniug, presi dent J. Q. A. Bowlby in the chair. The principal business transacted was the adoption of the following resolutien: Resolved, That a committee of fif teen citizens be appointed to solicit subscriptions in money to be paid to the first individual or corporation building and equipping a standard gauge railroad from Astoria to con nect with any road entering Portland, or to Portland itself; conditioned on the completion of said connecting road within eighteen months from this date. Said committee also to solicit dona tions in land and frontage for suit able terminal facilities for said road. J. O.Bozorth. Mayor Trullinger brought up the matter of extension of docks to the channel, stating that in his individ ual case the proper facilities pertain ing to his business required that ho build farther out to the channel, and that he wanted an expression of opinion on the part' of the chamber regarding the question. Considera ble debate resulted in the adoption of a motion that a committee of three be appointed to confer with a like committee composed of members of the city council to inquire and report thereon. The chairman appointed as such committee J. F. Halloran, S. S. Gordon and Jas. W. Welch. After some minor discussion the meeting adjourned. Fhe Department F.lertlon.
