The failure of Hitchcock, Shaw Co. is an
nouneed. The firm was engaged in the general
produce and commission business on Davis
street, in this city. Mr.. Hanna is appointed
assignee, and is settling with creditors on ba-
sis of 80 cents on the dollar.

Two vessels chartered by Mr.. Rosenfeld to
load with coal at Bellingham Bay for San Fran
cisco, will probably proceed to Nanaimo to pro-
cure their cargoes, the Bellingham Bay mine be-
ing at present flooded with water.
The schooner Mary Taylor, built on the Sound
in 1869, has been fitted up with engines and
propeller, and is to go on wrecking expedition
| TO the coast OF EcuduOr. Ine wreck OF tHe
Spanish frigate Leocadia will be the first one
examined.
The ship Oregon, which sunk during the late
gale which did so much damage in Sen Francis
co harbor, has been raised. The truth is, that
harbor is so large that in stiff gale vessels
not lie at the docks, and the same objection will
prevent Bellingham Bay from being the site of
any considerable commercial city. On the con-
trary, Dwamish Bay, with dock line over ten
miles in length, has never been known to be so
rough as to prevent vessels lying at the piers
with perfect safety.
The North Pacific Commercial Company was
incorporated in San Francisco on the I'd, and is
intended to engage in navigating the Pacific and
the inland waters of Washington Territory and
British Columbia, to make oil, preserve fish, etc.
