A. Noltner and Sidney Dell are mentioned, respectively, in connec tion with the reports. A resident of Oregon City, who has been down to the seashore on a visit, writes a raay letter to the Courier, and says: "Clatsop, as a summer re sort, is more attractive than Yaqnina or .Mestucca. 1 turns that Ulatsop can't be beat for a summer resort. The distance one has to make by stage over dusty roads is against Clatsop. I can't see any reason why a railrpad couldn't be bnilt to it.

Mr. Samuel Elmore, the well known canneryman, arrived here jesterday from Tillamook and reports every thing flourishing on the bay and good prospects of a boom in the near fu ture. Smith's saw mill, near Hobsonville. has . been purchased bythe Truckee Lumber company. They intend to employ it prin cipally in cutting spruce lumber for the San Franoisco market. There is a great deal of tideland spruce along the rivers emptying into the bay, es pecially the Kilchis. This lumber is much used for boxes on account of its toughness and because it does not impart a smell or taste to goods put in boxes made of it. There are also persons now nego tiating for a millsite at Robinson's Point, between Hobsonville and Jaw bone, where Michigan capitalists in tend to erect a fine mill. A man who has been stopping aronnd Tillamook for the past year and a half, appar ently doing nothing, it now is known, was the agent of Michigan capitalists, and he has quietly bought up some 10,000 or 12,000 acres of timber land, and having secured the timber, u mill is to be put up to cut it. Mr. Elmore says that a good many emigrants are settling in Tillamook oounty along the Nostncca anil other streams, where is some of the best land for dairy farms which can be found anywhere. He recently bought a claim near the head of the bay from II. 15. Oat man, of this city. It is one of the pret tiest plaoes on the bay, ns the writer oan testify, and is right abreast of the best drifts for salmob, and within a short distance from tho months of the Wilson, Trask and Tillamook rivers. Mr. Elmore will establish his Tillamook Ashing station there. He was recently offered more than ho paid for tho claim for a piece of the water front for a millsite. Tillamook has long been waiting for the tidal wave of development to strike there, and it looks now as if the tide had turned and is on tho flood, and with settlers coming in and a railroad in prospect in the near fu ture, Tillamook will soon take the place to which her vast natural re sources entitle her among the coun ties of the state.

IE you will remember a few years ago the word Malaria was com paratively, unknown, to-day it is as common as any word in tbe Englisb language, yet this word covers only tho meaning ot another word used by our forefathers in times pair. So it is with nervous diseases, as they and Malaria are intended to cover what our grandfathers called Billionsness, and all aro caused by troubles that arise from a diseased condition of the Liver whioh in performing its func tions finding it cannot dispose of ttie j b.le through tbe ordinary channel is compelled to pass it on tnrougn tue system, causiug nervous troubles, Malaria, Billions Fever, etc. Yon who arc suffering can well appreciate a cure. We recommend Green's Au gust Flower. Its cures aro innr velons. Getting Ready at Seattle.
