eleven small objects lying on the roofs

OUR Coal EXPORTS. - The
venerable editor of the Tacoma
Tribune, forgetting for a moment
the temporary location OF his
paper and his lately assumed
role of champion of our town,
has fallen into his old habit OF
accusing US of Misrepresentation
and exaggeration whenever we
state anything in regard to the
coal exports of this place. In
an issue of last week, we men
toned the fact that there was
nearly three times as much coal
shipped from this place as from
Coos Bay. The Tribune imme-
diately accused us of uncalled
for and objectionable exaggera-
ton" in so stating. We have
been to some trouble to procure
the exact figures to prove that
there has been no exaggeration
in the case. From the Coos Bay
News of July Goth we find that
the total amount of coal shipped
from Coos Bay from June 18th
to July 18th. 1875, was 2,23l
tons. During the same time, our

THE "WANDERINa PILGRIaI. The
Jacksonville Sentinel says: IS. ?. Has
lett, well known by every member of the
craft on this coast as the pilgrim print
er, for the reason that he is continually
on the tramp and never stopping at one
place more than day or two at time,
called at our Office last Tuesday, and
as usual was busted, and if we couldn't
give him some work, or if We had a
couple of bits about our clothes that we
could let him have to get cup of coffee
and something to eat. He looked as
seedy as ever, with his clothes we'll torn
and worn, and after giving him piece
to pay for his breakfast the next we saw
of him he was engaged in spirited dis
cussion with one of our citizens as to
whether his clothes were complete fit
or not. Mr.. Haslett has given one of
our exchanges short sketch Of some
of his experiences while travelling over
the country. He has encountered some
pretty rough journeys on this coast, but
nothing to that across the mountain s
from Siskiyou county to the coast by
trail frequently losing the trail, and
once travelling at random over and
through almost perpendicular mountains
along the rockey-shores of the Klamath
river, where the foot prints of a white
man were probably never seen. After
long and hard trip he arrived at
Orleans Bar, where he remained few
days to recruit, and then resumed his
journey. On the second day out from
Orleans Bar, where he was overtaken by
Indians, but soon met party of friend
ly indians, who acted as a guard to Nc
Donald S ranch, near Arcata. The mail
carrier being there he followed his tracks
along the sandy beach, and finally
struck the trail, fetching up in Eureka
just in Tina to receive the benefits of a
severe shock of earthquake. The
Pilgrim" states that at some fu ure
day, for the benefit of his typographical
friends and the public generally, it is
his intention topublish a history of his
exploits. travels and incidents during
the past quarter of a centuary, there be-
ing hardly town or city in the whole
United States where he has not visited
excepting Arkansas and Texas, which
States he intends "doing" st future
time. He is coming northward, and
the members of the "craft" in Portland
may look for the wandering typo" in
few days.

- Few Irish bulls, says Cork pa.
per, have furnished more foodfor laugh
ter than one which lately formed the
subject of solemn inquiry in the Irish
Cou1t of Common Pleas. The town Of
Wexford has two newspapers, and one
of them published letters, written by a
priest considered to be damaging to the
character Of the proprietors Of the other
paper. Chief among the imputations
was that the latter gentleman was the
owner of prize bull to which the name
of Pho Mono had been given, the writer
arguing that to bestow sueh a title on
snch an animal was obviously taking
sacrilegeous liberties with the name OF
certain august parsonage. The own
er of the prize bull seems to have con-
sidsred hin self accused of something
heinous. and he appealed to the law.
The jury awarded him 300.
