C3 T3$ gaHtj gLStxrriWA. ASTORIA. OREGON : FRIDAY JUXE 2i, 188J B.C. IRELAND ...Cditor. Xclialem Lauds for Immigrants. It is well worth while to draw the attention of the incoming im migrants to the inducements which offer to the immigrant of moderate means to settle in the Nehalem valley. The lowei part of this valley has very few settlers, Uut there are good homes there to be taken up, as government lands, and lands that can be bought of the railroad com pa 113 to supply live hundred families. The lands are exceedingly rich and although mostly covered with timber and brush are easily cleared. Hops would be a very profitable crep to raise there, as they will bear well the cost of hauling out to Astoria. All sorts of grain and roots excel in this valley and can be used with great profit in fattening beef and hogs for the early spring mar ket in Astoria, where they will bring always a very high rate. It should be borm in mind that in order to make a success of the settlement in the lower Nehalem, settlers should band together in suflicient number to maintain their school, their blacksmith, and their church, as well as to be sufficiently strong to keep open the road from the lower Xrhalem to Astoria. If fort' families should agree to settle in that country as neighbors, they could easily keep up a good wagon road in their own settlement and to Astoria. The price of government lands is the same as in other un settled portions of our county, and railroad sections can be bought at $2 50 per acre, the money to be refunded if the railroad is not built. Gen. Grant, President Garfield, and about half the cabinet are at Long Branch. The temperature in ,New Or leans on the 22d was the highest known for eighty years. A dispatch from Tombstone, Aii7.oipf the 22d, says that town is buiRf. It . ) jives no parlien- The convention for the improve ment of the Missouri river naviga tion is in session in Council Bluffs and very enthusiastic of good re sults. IJartmann, the nihilist, tried to go to America a low days ago, but after taking passage discover ed that the steamer went from Antwerp, and was afraid to go there, fearing1 arrest. Parnell starts in July for an ex tended political tour in the United States. A deputation of Ulster tenant farmers to-day had an inter view with him and other home rule members on the 22d,al which it was agreed that home rulers should strenuously oppose govern ment amendments to the land bill. The first new winter wheat from the south arrived in New York on Monday. The wheat was grown in the vicinity of fort Worth, Texas, and was from there shipped to St. Louis, where its market price was established at $1 :i5 per bushel. The berries were small and inferior to the poorest Oregon wheat. A Canadian paper, whose editor probably believes that Friday is an unlucky day, prints the follow ing paragraph: "Are not such facts as these enough to make one ask: What's in a name? The small excursion steamer that car ried nine persons to their doom at Gait three years ago was named the Empress of India. The excursion boat that went down in the river Thames, at London, England, in the fall of 1S78, with about 000 souls on board, was known as the Princess Alice. The ship which foundered off Spithead in 1872, and swept 000 passengers into the other world was called the Royal George; and last, but not least, the steamer that parted on Tuesday evening to carry desolation into thousands of Canadian homes and drape our land in mourning, ljorc the name of our beloved Queen, upon whose birthday the boat gave up the ghost, in sight, we should also say, of the sister boat, the Princess Louise. Strange fatality." Strange enough, certainly, to put serious thoughts into one's head. Xobody Hurt. Sunday, the 20th, was when the conjunction of the , planets oc curred. Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune were nearly in line with the sun and moon, all attract ing on one side of the earth. In San Francisco it was one of the clearest days they have observed this summer. The wind blew a brisk gale from the west, varying in velocity from 21 to 20 miles an hour, and the temperature, at one o'clock p. m., was 5S Fahrenheit, barometer 00.02 in. From hills back of the Presidio, the Faral lones, point Reyes, Mount Diablo, and the Sierra range, beyond the southern part of the bay, were clearly seen with every indenta tion and feature of their various outlines sharply defined. At Portland and Olympia, the wind was south with light rain, and the thermometer iG Fahrenheit. At Salt Lake the wind was southeast, and temperature S4, and at Chey enne, northwest and 81 Fahren heit. The air seemed very fresh, pure ami invigorating, full of ozone and other healthy and life preserving qualities. Otherwise, nothing unusual occurred. A Somnambulists Walk. Troy Pres. The other evening as Officer La very, of Waterford, was patrol ling that village, his attention was attracted by a flickering light that came down one of the side streets and proceeded up Broad street a short distance toward the canal. The officer hastened to the spot, and was much surprised to see an old citizen, clad only in his night robe, with a lighted candle in his hand, passing along the street looking at the doors of houses as though in search of some particu lar locality. It was taining at the time, and the drops of water falling on the candle nearly quenched it. Mr. Lavery accosted the man, but receiving no response, and going closer, saw he was walking in his sleep. The officer aroused the somnambulant pedestrian and es corled him to his home. Fires destroyed 7,550 acres of wheat in the field in California on the 22d, including many farm houses, barns and much farming machinery; loss not known. The Michigan legislature has passed a bill making it a crime punishable by a fine of $1,000 and a year in jail, to publish accounts of rape, incest, murder, executions or seductions, and the bill includes even the sale, distribution or po session 01 such newspaper ac counts. A Dakota cotemporary hastens to remark that: UA gang of wolverine backwoodsmen will not be able to muzzle the press of Michigan for any length of time, much less inaugurate a reform which will affect the press of the country at large.' If it be a re form, why should it not be in augurated? t3T"AU citizens of Oregon who desire to inform thoir friends in the states of t!it rendition and progress of this state, can have 110 more complete and compre hensive volume of facts to send them than bj subscribing for this journal, and ha nig us mail it weekly to their friends.
