Less than 818,000 more completes the amount Look out for the locomotive rhen the bell rings. Subscriptions to the railroad sub sidy aggregate $102,950. The bark P.earl arrived in from San Francisco yesterday afternoon to load lumber. To-day the Telephone makes her last Saturday round trip for the season. The Columbia sailed yesterday at 5-30 p. ji. She took on hero 2,585 caes salmon. Tillamook has heard of the Astoria railroad boom, and is going to have a 85,000 court house. The River Indus is loaded and ready for sea. The City of York is discharging ballast. The Qen. Miles arrived in yester day seven hours from Gray's harbor, with 1,955 cases salmon. There were twelve boats anchored in line yesterday in front of the city, catching the little fishlets that swarm in the stream. It is thought that the grand jury will finish their labors about Monday next. The present court term is not expected to be a very long one. The schooner Norma now loading at West Shore mills will take about 450 M. feet. The mill is cutting the lumber faster than it can be carried away. A party of excursionists start this morning from Judge McGuire's place on a pleasant trip to the mouth of Elk creek, one of the attractive spots of Olatsop county. Ben Worsley will have a three time auction -sale at the Crystal Palace to-day at 1030 a. m., and 2 and 7 p. m. Goods at your own price. You are invited. The revenue cutter Richard RusJi is expected- daily at San Francisco. Upon her arrival there, the Thos. Corwin will leave San Francisco and resume her station at Astoria. The coasting fleet is busy: the Mis chief and A. B. Field are loading for Tillamoek: the Qen. Miles came in yesterday: the Tonquin went out yesterday afternoon, and the river boats have all they can do. Oapt. J. O. Hunter, of the steam ship Alteon, and the other officers of that vessel are to be transferred to the Idaho, and Capt Carroll and the officers of the Olympian will take charge of the Ancon, which will con tinue on the Alaska routa The San Francisco coast seamen's union has posted a new schedule of wages on coasting, lumber and coal vessels. The rates are 850 a month to open ports, 845 to bar harbors, and $40 to islands, or an increase of 85 all around over rates throughout the summer. Fall fish of excellent quality is be ing packed on both sides of the river. Some of that which is packed on this side comes from Shoalwater bay; the bulk of it is brought from Washing ton territory, where September is an open month. After the first of next month the fall fishing will be more extensive, as after that date there will be no question as to legality. At last, says the Journal, the post office department have come to the rescue of Shoalwater bay, and have ordered a new letting of contract. Postmaster Morehead received in structions Wednesday to advertise for service beginning November 1st, upon the same schedule that was formerly run under, i. e., leave here three times a weekafter arrival of stage, and return the following day. Warren must have been "fired." News comes all the way from Oma ha, says the News, that a big row is brewing in the Union Pacific between president Adams and vice president and general manager T. J. Potter, and that one or the other must neces sarily resign. The latter persists in sweeping out office-holders right and left -'and his broom occasionally strikes a favorite of the president's. In such cases Mr. Adams holds that he 4s- entitled to name successors, whieh Potter disputes, and on this basis the two forces stand arrayed against each other. An Interesting Piece of News. It is announced on excellent authority that the largest shipping firm in Portland has bonded all of Geo. W. Hume's property in this city, a shrewd piece of business on their part, Mr. Hume's property is valuable, consisting of some water frontage in the heart of the city that will be of extreme value in the mat ter of- warehouses and shipping facil ities. The gentlemen who have bond ed this property recognize its value and the business necessities of the hour. . . mm . - Some New Books.

The Astobian is informed that the eight men indicted for malicious mischief in cutting traps, etc., at Gray's harbor, were unable to fur nish the bail required, and were yes terday started for Olympia, where they will languish in jail till the next term of court, in May, '88. They were indicted, each on three counts, with bail fixed at $300 for each in dictment, which was afterwards lumped at $500 each, ancMhis, not be ing forthcoming, they had to go to jail. There is such a feeling on the harbor among residents and men who have their homes there that if there is a repetition of such depredations the perpetrators may consider them selves lucky it they have a chance to go to jail.

Strolling through the Hillside cem etery in the bright September sun light, where the new, fresh mound and the moB3y stone half hidden from the eye told the same eternal story, he who accompanied us said, stop ping at an old, old relic of poor mor mer tality: "It makes me sad to stand by an old grave like this. It is so strange to think that these people all these lying around us here were living once. They walked about the streets, and went in and out, and loved and hated, and enjoyed and suf fered. They lived whole great worlds of their own, and now even their names are lost, bnt for the record on these stones." He looked beyond the narrow mound with frightened eyes. "Oh, it terrifies me so to think that they lived all this bright, joyful, happy life, and now they are nothing." "They lived, loved and were happy; at least, let us suppose so, since it is more comfortable to suppos.e that than the reverse. And see, this one lived more than eighty years. Was not that enough? One can run the whole gamut of life's experiences in eighty years. And then he must have been a good man, for see, his epitaph is filled with good advice to future 'generations. If he had been wicked it would have been devoted to setting forth his transcendent piety. A very bad man always be comes a saintly character after he goes into his grave thereby creating in the minds of moral economists ttie pious wish that he had retired sooner to that sanctifyfng retreat" - Three Favorites Have the following to say of Wis dom's Bobertine, the great beautifier and preserver of the complexien: Pobtland, Or., Jane 4, 1837.
