John 0, WiHivur, tlio boy drowned with bis fnlhor in Hayno's slough on tlio 22d of Inst month, was found lust Tuesday, about noon, by Herman Lar son, son of Julius Larson, who wns on bis way to North Ilend in a small boal. Tho body had drifted into tlio Miller branch of Hayno's slough, nnd nt tlio timo it was found it was nbout four miles from tbo plnco where tbo man and boy nro supposed to bavo been drowned, It was flouting in tlio water feet down, with only n small portion of tbo bend nnd hair abovo tlio surface. When young Lnrscn first discovered tlio body ho thought It wns a waterfowl of some description, but upon a nearer approach ho pored veil it to bo the corp?o of n boy nearly his own sizo nml age. Ho pineal a lino around tho neck of the corpse, lowed it to a slnko, and tied it then), nfler which ho wont to Weaver's plnco nt Oooso point nnd reported the finding of llio body. Parties then went after it nnd it wns hmught to Ihii place Tuesday evi'nlrr n"d IJuricd hero yes terday. Tho body wns considerably swollen, but otherwise it wus iu as good a stale of preservation as could b.tvo lieen ox jiected after remaining iu llio water so long, Tlio bent and rigid condition of one arm indicated Unit the boy bad bold to the boat wbilo life lasted. I'nrties immediately went in search of tho remains of tlio father, which they expect to find somen hero in tho vicinity of where those of tho boy were found. Young Larson, who found tho boy, is a Ltd 1(1 years old, and possessed of good courage, lo alone take cliargo of the corpse, as he did. Ho was also ono of llio first to discover the boat after the drowning of the man and boy. The boat bad then drifted to n jioint opposite Weaver's residence on Hayno's slough, and young Lnrscn was coming by there, when lie assisted in reclaiming tlio boat, from which tlio oars nnd oar-locks were gone. Coos Bay Wagon Road Items. Jus. Laird of Sitkum, the mail contrac tor and the boss jeliu of tho Coos bay wagon road, was on tho bay last Satur day nnd Htmdny, looking after this busi ness end of ids route. The heavy rains ol this winter have damaged the road considerably, but Laird took homo witii him a quantity of jioudcr nnd fuso to begin the blunting nnd removal of tlio largo bowlders that bavo been washed from tbo hillsides into tlio ro.ul running through tho canyon. So far this winter there has been very little snow on tho road between Coos City nnd llosoburg, and with two or threo executions the mails have been carried through tho canyon. The innil servico between tbo bay and Uoscburg has been better conducted under Laird this winter than it over was before Ho has como through on time every trip and brought tbo mail ovcry alum ihaUffjvajiJjroiijjht to him ntjHose- ' lllirc. iliu iniiiiru or- mmiwaucr iu reach this placo has been due to Ibo de lays beyond Hosoburg. Laird has sent a jictition to tlio postal depurtmont, signed by all tbo postmast ers on bis roufo, praying for an exten sion of time during tbo winter months that will enable him to lio over at night during stormy weather. It is a reasona ble request that should bo granted. Under tbo arrangement asked for our mail from Hosoburg would arrivo at 5 o'clock in tho afternoon, instead of 10 o'clock in tlio forenoon, as now. Week beforo last Laird lost a vnlua bio borso by lockjaw, brought ou by the man who shod it driving a nail into the quick, and n short timo ngo bo had a horso badly crippled by being carried below tbo ford nnd into a lot of drift wood during a freshet in the east fork of tlio Coqulllo river; but Ibis iinimnlis re covering. Laird has tho prlvllogo of expending tbo tolls collected on tho road in keep ing it in repair. He also has tbo right to placo another gate ou this end of the ro.ul, and bo feels strongly inclined to uxorciso this right, nnd may do so un less tho peoplo who uso tbo road show a moro libornl disposition to assist in keeping it open, , .miss i'.ua ltagon, laio oi ijougms county, is touching a prtvato school nt Laird's station.

Senator Hawley Says Arthur was Friendly to the Republican Ticket. Washington', Jan. 5. Senator llaw loy has furnished for publication the fol lowing statement: "I have been several times interviewed, especially within a day or two, concerning statements and t!meeiwu -in -itcwvprtporajuincfirwing the management of tbo national repub lican committee, and various references to the attitudo of President Arthur in tho late campaign, and an editorial in the National Republican of January 3 particularly calls upon me concerning a certain interview with him. x do so cheerfully, as he has certainly been mis understood. At headquarters of tbo re' publican national committe early in Au gust last, I have no means of fixing the precise day, during a conversation be tween certain members of the commit tco and myself, something was said about tho position of President Arthur nnd the desirability of obtaining some additional manifestation of sympathy and co-operation irom him, both for the sake of its general effect and its local influence upon tho president's personal friends and old political associates in Now York. In response to the sugges tion I said I was quite willing to speak to him about it tho first opportunity, and 1 did bo afterwards at tho Fifth Avenue hotel, where ho was then staying. He enswered frankly and cordially, ox pressing bis continued support of Blaine from tbo moment of his nomination." Tbo doubtful point with the president was whether it would lie of uso again to publicly stato his position, after bis tele gram to Blaine. To obviate any objec tion to tbo president making a state ment in bis own behalf, Hawley prepar ed an interviow for tho press, in accord ance with the preceding conversation, and Arthur pronounced tho document entirely satisfactory. It was to bo cir culated in public or private, then or at a lntec day. Hawley then discussed tho matter with Chairman Jones, and either Klklns or Chafleo, and an agreement was reached that tho subject might as well bo temporarily dropped, ns in a fort night thoro might bo moro value In something of tho kind. Hawloy so re ported to Arthur, and so far as tho former was concerned nothing further was dono in tho mattor. Hawloy concludes as follows: "The campaign is ovor, and tbo republicans mo dofeated. I respectfully Biibmtt that criticisms and recriminations aio not profitable. The republican national committee worked with most admirable zeal and energy, and I doubt not that the party is fully conscious that it was deeply in earnest in tho dcsiio to do ex actly tho right things. Always consid ering the ditllculttes that develop them selves, tho rosult was a splondid dem onstration of tho vitality of tho republi can patty. S001I after General Arthur succeeded to tho presidency, referring to some newspaper speculations, about his purposes, ho said : 'Ono tiling I do mean to do ; I mean to mnko it po.ssl blo for tlio republican party to carry tho eloction in 1834.

Ary Dear Sir: Through the press and other wise I learn that you, with a low other friends of mine, aro engaged in raising a subscription for my liencflt. I appre ciate both tbo motive and tlio friend ship which havo dictated that course on your part, but on maturo reflection, I regard it as due to myself and family to decline this proffered generosity.

Tho Alail and Express says: "A man whoso unfaltering persistence, matchless military skill and untiring energy supplied to a million of Ameri can citizens ir ality to be urged in Ins behalf. It wan impossible for Grant to say what ho felt obliged to say in his note, without bring ing to a crisis the painful situation in which he has silently suffered theso long months, during which timo tho sympathies of llio people havo had tho guidance of no definite idea as lo what needed to be dono, what could bo dono, or what should be done." The Alail and Express then asks what shall be done, and continues as follows: "What but the one straight forward, legitimate, adequate method becoming the government of the United States, itself tho proudest monument of Grant's achievements. The title rank created for him as recognition of hia services should bo restored to him by common consent. To this point events that we cannot remember without, pain and some self-reproach bavo brongbt us. Let Grant's last dajs be his best days, and bo prolonged by the action ot the nation he did so much to save."
