COL. JAMES TAYLOR. The death of Colonel Taylor will cause universal sorrow throughout the city and this whole section of Oregon. Addled to the pain the sudden announce ment of Ms death brings to his old friends and neighbors, Is the reflectJon that had he been siured but a little longer he might have seen the fruition of his many years' of hope and labor for the development of Astoria and Clatsop county. He was perhaps the best known, uid was among the most "highly esteemed of the remaining few flmt seittlera of the North Pacific coast region. With very successive step of Oregon's advancement and progress foi the past fifty years he has bean a more or loss promtaonit figure. The rectitude of :hls private life and character needs no eulogiium among his fellow citizens who h'ave known and nwepeoted him so long. The attempt by any mere ex prosslon of symixuthy to jwom-Jle the bereaved sons and dauKMcra of such a father to their loss, would be 'both Svoak and Impotent. Time alone will tie their effectual, s It always Is the universal healer. Astoriai will miss the Stalwart form amd cheery voilce of het Oldest citizen, but the Impress of hi uvuful life and public example will be felt upon her future for yews to come. Elsewhere we print a brief account of the life and hlutory of Colonel Taylor, and w have been promised the facta and materials for an extended biogra phy later on. DIPLOMATIC INTRIGUES. The Japanese government, says the Now York Tribune, has acted with good Judgment In declining to receive an envoy who roprwentei the viceroy raliM r than 'the government at Peking. The situation In China Is fraught with the uncerttuitttea of civil war, and na tional disruption, and Count. I to Is Jus tified in Insisting uion treating for jH'aoe directly tvkh a duly accredited agent of the throne. At the same time Julian, having much to gain from continuance of the a war In wliLh the Chines military and nawul services have completely broken down, Is natur ally taking advantage of every technl OAllty for delaying peac-maklng. Its shrewdness and practical skill In diplo tnfaoy.are exiltkg alarm and coiutern .tton in Great Drttailn, wheiv there Is growing apprehension of the dissolution of the CMnese Empire.

Mil, FOX'S LETTER. Ws publish this morning a communl cation from Mr. John Fox, which set tles all question as to the aittltude and Intention of that gentleman respecting the City Republican ticket. While Mr. Fox has had occasion to feel dlBgruntled and disaffected towards at laaat a portion of the ticket, with the spirit of ftiankness and courage so ohar- aotentftio of ithe man, he wastes no words In needless apologies or explana tions, but comes out directly and strong ly for the election of the whole ticket, Relieving the vindication and enforce ment of the great principles and time- honored forms of the Republican party more Important than the satisfaction of Individual resentment however Just, he hastens to (acknowledge -Ms obliga Hon to Stand by the men who represent the dignity of the organisation, and to yield due allegiance to the action jf Its regular convention. Mr. Fox's letlter is a credit to him; and his example, wifuh his words of advice and warning to those sowing seeds lia ble to ripen Into future discord In the party, will go far to ensure the trium phant election of every candidate on '.he ticket next Wednesday.
