Tho gentlemen who propose building tno Astoria railroad are expected to ar rive in this city this week. They will come overland from San Francisco. They ropresent what the San Francisco papers call "the McNulta svndicate." Gen. McNulta, the receiver of the Wabash road is expected to arrive in California nest spring and mako that state his permanent home. Messrs. Woodad, Potter, Sherman and Drew nro expected to bo ablo to de termine shortly after their arrival here what they propose to do. The proposed railroad subsidy now aggregates $139. 280 so near the $150,01)0 that it may in effect be considered as cornploted. It is anderbtood that these gentlemen lay particular stress on the importance and value of the coal deposits along the proposed line of the road between here and Forest Grove. It is believed that a nine foot vein of coal on the Nehalem on tho line of tho proposed road, equal at least in Talue to the Mount Diablo coal, has been already unearthed and that surface indications in that vicinity lead to the belief that other coal deposits there exist. The logging business alone would, it Is thought, be sufficient to sustain the road and make it pay a fair interest on the investment. It is understood that the syndicate consider the $150,000 raised by the citi zens of this city will be applied to the payment of interest on the first bonds to be issued for the construction of the road, though that is not of direct interest to Astoria, as the proposition is that the $150,000 is not payable till the road is completed and trains running thereon. The matter has been banging fire for some time and the arrival of the gentle men named is awaited with considerable interest by the contributors to the fond and citizens generally. THE HALL IX UXIOTOW. Sometime ago some of the residents of Cniontown put np a substantial hall whioh since its erectioa has been used for dunces and social gatherings, and for a considerable time all went well, but when prohibition began to bo discussed it was productive of strife, some of those who put in money and work being strong anti-prohibitionists, while others were as strongly in favor of that idea. Tho re sult is two rival factions, and tho claim on the part of those who oppose prohibi tion that their former brethren bave "frozen them out," refused to allow them the use of the hall and made member ship in their blue ribbon club a test to admission to what was formerly com mon property. Matters came to a crisis iast night when some of the builders and contributors determined to have a dance and being denied admission by their former friends but present antagonists, secured the services of officer Beasley and effected entrance. Thoy had their dance, all tho same, but tho question of possession may yet havo to be determined in the courts. NOTICE.

One of tho greatest trials of the news paper profession is that its members are compelled to see more of the sham of the world than any other profession. Through every newspaper office, day after day, go all the weaknesses of tho world all the vanities that want to be puifed, nil tho revenges that want to be wreaKeu. an iue misiases mat want to be corrected, all the dull speakers that want to bo thought eloquent, all the meanness that wants to get its wares noticed gratis in tho editorial column in order to save the tax of the advertising celumn: all tho men who want to be set right who were never right; all the crack-brained phil osophers with stories as lone as their hair and as gloomy as their finger nails in mourning because bereft of soap all tho bores who como to stay five minutes, but talk five hours. Through the edito rial and roportorial rooms all tho follies and shams of tho world aro seen, day after day, and tho temptation isto believe neither in God, man nor woman. It is no surprise to me that in this profession there are some skeptical men; I only wonder that newspaper men believe any thing. T. Be Witt Talmage.
