for some time from dauhaa, and in order to OBJ

MELANCHOLY CASUALTY by a communication
we are informed Of a melancholy accident which
occurred on Tuesday last, resulting in the death Of
edward Hliohins, young man from Charlestown,
Mas 25 years Of age. Ii would appear that H.,
m G, mfany with three other men, went down the
bsrbor in sail boat, for the purpose Of shooting
III on one of The Islands, ard when they arrived
there foundi impossible TO return, the wind blow
re perfect gale. They there fell IN with another
boat. and succeeded IN getting under the lee OF the
island. HItthms wtbt ashore with the gun, and
his corpanicns pulled UP their kioch in order TO
get into dee1er water They endeavored TO anchor
when short distance out, but found hat the water
Was tco deep, end immed ia,ely made en- attempt
tn get in shore spaIn. While dong so, a squall
stfusk the boat and ceJsIzed her. The three men
succeeded in ieEaining the lost boat and were
dnft, cut seawaTd. by great exertlons, they sue
cetctd in reaching the shore. llitchIDs, when he
cav The beat oeIsize, plunged into the water with
Tie Intention, n is supposed, Of inducing the per-
strs IN the other boat TO 90 10 the assistance OF his
c. mfsdes. In this laudsbr and noble endeavor,

Business in Oregon.

The late accounts from Oregon speak yc-
ry encouragingly of the business prospects
and the general condition of the Territory
The discovery OF a new channel, by which
a good and safe entrance 10 the Columbia
River may be Effected is regarded as likely
To have n very beneficial effect upon the
commercial interests of Oregon. The gov
ernor, in his message TO the legislature, re-
lefs TO this discovery, as greatly increasing
the facilities of navigating the Columbia, and
awards great credit 10 the gentleman by
whom the discovery was made, who, il seems
was Capt Charles White, pilot at Tie
mouth of the river. The delays and dangers
of entering the river are said To be dim m sh
ed seventy-f five per cent by The discovery
The harbor OF Asiaria is reported TO be very
good aud secure.
The exports from Astoria during the year
ending the 3lst Of March last, present an ag-
gregaie OF very considerable amount and val
tie. The following are some of the items; =
Sawed lumber, 5 So, 3l7 feet; Hewn Timber
3l2, 1917 feet; Shingles, sos, 033; Flour, 3, 100
barrels; Salmcn, 900 barrels; with considera-
bic quantities of vegetables, and butter and
cheese. The destination of these exports rs
not known particularly. good portion,
probably has gone 10 California. LUMBER,
which forms material item of export, is,
according to the last accounts, drug in
California, notwithstanding the exraordina-
ry consumption Of it there by fire. We
learn that The barquc Ann Smith, running
between Portiaad and San Francisco, on
her last trip down, took a quantity of lum-
Der, which she was obliged to carry back to
Oregon, as it would not pay the cost OF dis
charging at San Francisco.

FOOtc and Benton.

MIR. Pearce's report on the pistol affray in
the senate, April II, is published The COM
mittee, narrating the whole affair, pronounce
it to have been most discreditable to the senate,
and trace its origin to the violation of that rule
of order which forbids all personalities in de-
bate. The committee are unanimous in the
opinion that 'Nlr Footc is innocent of any de-
sign or desire TO assassinate Mr. Benton but
they accuse him of having, at various times
during the present session; without anv suffi-
Gent provocation, INDUCED in personalities to-
wards Mr.. Benton of the most offensive and in
sulting character These were suffered, the
committee say, by Mr.. Benton for long time
with great forbearance. On the Goth of March
the insulting provocations being renewed, Mr..
Benton manifested his resentment with great
violence, and on the succeeding day, recrimi-
mated, in language equally personal, disorder
ly aud abusive They then refer to the out
rage of the 18th of April, but inasmuch as no
shot was fired no blow struck, and they can
find no precedent, the committee forbear to re-
commend any action TO the senate. They hope
that the strong condemnation publicly express
ed, will be sufficient rebuke and warning
not UNDECIDED in the future
