The American sliip 0. S. Hulbert will arrive down from Portland this morning drawing nineteen feel; that as, loaded as deep as it is possible for a sea-going vessel to load in the "Wil lamette. The remainder of her cargo -will, as usual, be loaded at Astoria, where a vessel can load to 2o feet and safely sail for England. The Hulbert is the last of the grain fleet of '89 and the forernnner of that of '90. As in her case, so it has been and so it probably will be till the shippers realize that even the profit arising from breaking bulk in Port land -will not preserve their business against the competition of the Sound, and that unless they prefer going to the Sound they must coincide with the dictates of nature's laws, and load vessels where they can be wholly loaded at Astoria. "What San Francisco is to Sacra mento, what New York city is to Al bany, is what Astoria must necessarily bo to Portland, so far as commercial shipping interests are concerned. Efforts to make Sacramento, Al bany, and even Philadelphia shipping points, even when backed by hundreds of millions of dollars of capital, have all signally failed. The great Pennsylvania railroad, with an invested capital of live hun dred million dollars, tried to make Philadelphia its shipping terminus, but had to seek a termiuus in New York. The United States govern ment was made a party to the cilbrt ; the Delaware was dredged and lighted till one could see a line of dredges and a row of lights from Bombay Hook to Smith's island, but the Pennsylvania railroad, much as it loved the Penn sylvania metropolis, had to go to New York city. It is the history of every inland porl that tries to be an ocean terminus. ,The effort is a costlj' one, and finnlh unsuccessful. As to the Sound ports, the lay of the country precludes any possibility of permanent competition on the Sound of cheapness of freights in delivering grain to sea-going vessels. Trundling wheat oyer cosily grades through tun nelled mountains cannot compaie wilh the facihty afforded by a natural slope from the inland empire to the sea by way of the Columbia. When the wheat is here il is only ten miles to sea, and 700 round miles ashorter trip than that to Sound ports, which involves sailing far in from the ocean. The question is one that solves it self, and will in a manner that, how ever tardy, must result in practical recognition of the superiority in every way of Astoria Oregon's only sea port THE LAST TlitJL wlventures ami tho li.islo.suro of hla Important fl'hftiwMrl ii Kiionrn Jlnmlri discoveries will appear for tho first Umo in tho iiuerei.t is Si.cnco jtamm.

Piunce Bismarck, says a London letter writer, has in the last few weeks shown the world that there is one thing that he does not know how to do. "He does not kusw how to fall. 1 n his misfortune this great man has be- come almost small. lie docs not!"" l ,,XM" r "" l,t-v ot Astoria, ,.,...., itlatsop County Oregon, propose to know how to accept the inevitable, and since his fall he seems to have lost his dignity almost as completely as his place. lie passes his time in fault-finding, in prophesying mjpfor 'tnnea and in giving advice which is no longer asked ot him; he unbosoms himself to every interviewer; in fact, from Bismarck the taciturn he has turned into Bismarck the talkative. He lias, as he says, stepped down off fSie sUge into Hie pit: bnl, whereas he was a first rato actor, he makes but a noisy, discontented pittite." The Quebec legislature, borrowing thejdea from France, has offered to every family in the province baring twelve living children 100 acres of ' land. The offer has been accepted by hundreds of families, and the accept ance has disclosed some interesting facts. In one parish there were seven teen households which claimed and received the allotment One woman, only forty years of age, based her claim on being the mother of forty three children. The Kansas famers arc going to have only about 24,000,000 bushels cJf wheat this year. It was arranged at first that lliey should havo -10,000,000, but remembering the trouble they had last year to get cars, they concluded 5fc;wonld 1)0 hardly fair to em.barr.vs lbeailway company that way again. - MB - Faith is a great thing, but it would before impressive if it carried a few sigas of confidence along.

B & PARSER, General Age It is stated that Boston has shipped large quantities of rum to Africa the past year. There would be more money and solid satisfaction in intro ducing the baked bean as a compet itor in the banana market. Jt is noticeable that all these acci dents and disasters to excursion par tics happen to people who are away from home seeking pleasure. Those wijo stay at homo have some compen sation after all.
