ten thousand canisters Of preserved meat
were stored at the Gosport victualling
yard, and such stencil was emitted
that the Admiralty ordered an examina-

proved that of six thousand eight hum

one hundred and eighty nine were found
to contain good food the remainder oi
the lot was mass Of putrid and filthy
stuff, which was thrown into the sea
The contract was for 5000 canistcrs,

northern boundary Of the State. has ex-
cited considerable curiosity in regard to
its origin and definition. Mr.. Snyder's
derivation Of tho word, which was read

He stated that the French words Six
Callisux were given to q ford on the
Umpqua river, at which place Michel
La Frambois, with party Of Hudson
Bay trappers crossed in the year 1882 !;
six large stones, or rocks, lay in the river
where they crossed, and they gave it tho

to the address which, rs Speaker Of
the House of Representative that
made to him upon the occasion Of his
last visit to this country, was prepared

corrected. 1t was composed by himself,
as the style abundantly shows On the
morning of his reception by the House OF

me alone, and stated or read to him
the address which intended to make
him on that day. The expression oc-
