The ALLEaHANIANs.- Victoria pa
pers are enthusiastic in their comments
on the performances of the Allegha-
mans at that place. An OVERLOOKING
house greeted them on their first ap-
pearance, and everybody went away de-
lighted with everything they had heard
and seen in connection with the novel
entertainment. The unanimous verdict
is that it was the best that had been given
at that place for many years. The COL
onist says the performance of The
Star Spangled Banner and God Save
the Queen on the bells was musical
curiosity" There are Sc bells, all of
which must be struck at least once dur
ing the performance of these pieces.
The company will appear in Columbia
Hall on Friday and Saturday evenings
next, the 23d and Oath insts. We be-
speak for them a full house, for they
richly merit liberal patronage. III.

WooL.-It is said that the spring
clip of wool in Walla-walla valley, in
GLIDING Umatilla county, will be fully
equal to 100000 pounds. The esti-
mated figure may be placed at 20 cents,
which gives a total of $4,000. OF
this clip, Umatilla county furnishes the
larger share - 100000. The Dayton
wooden mill has bought 100, 900 pounds,
paying from 10 to 20 cents. This mill
will require some $4,000 pounds addi-
tional, which will be about the compli-
ment required for the seasons run.

ANNIVERSARY OBsERvANcEs. In
telligencer notes the fact that besides the
celebration here and at Snohomish, the
late anniversary was more gensfally OBJ
served around the Sound than WIS ans
ticipated. At the Ren&on and Talbot
mines some $50 psfsons had . picnic
during the day and grand ball in the
evening, and at Langston's, on White
River, an grafton and other appropriate
exercises were had. In Pierce county,
the Changers got up celebration at
Hughes ranch, some distance back from
Steilacoom, which was largely attended,
and at the .Puyallup Reservation, the
Indians to the number OF 400 or 500,
had good time, in which large num-
Der of whites participated. At Oak
Harbor, in Island county, they had o
picnic and also grand ball in the even
ing, and at Bellingham Bay, as we are
informed, another grand ball and pic
mic which was numerously attended,
while at Port Madison and Seabeck, the
people were not unmindful of the day.

NATIONAL TELEGRAPH CoMpANy.-A At
last there is prospect of competition
in telegraphy and reduction Of the
enormous tariff now charged for the
transmission of messages. The Nation
al Telegraph Company recently filed
articles of incorporation in California,
composed Of such men as VIM. Shannon,
VIM. Ralston, Michael Reese, and a
dozen or more other of the heavy capt.
talists of this coast. The object of the
company is the construction, conduct
and maintenance of telegraph lines be-
tween the cities Of San Francisco and
New York, and oil other principal cities
and towns in the United States and
Territories thereof, and in the Dominion
of Canada. The principal place Of bus
mess of said corporation is San Fran
cisco, and the term of existence of the
corporation fifty years. This looks like
business and doubtless will result in the
establishment Of company which will
soon rival the Western Union in the
magnitude of its operations. s5

CRops IN WALLA-wALLA.-The Walla-

getting along pretty well with their hay
ing in many cases. Most of the wild
grass and grain hay is already cut,
but they have not yet commenced on
the timothy. The wheat is not quite SO
early as it usually is, but they will COM
mence cutting it in short time. The
demand for harvest hands exceeds the
supply, and some of the farmers COM
plain that it is almost impossible for
them to get their hay harvested, and
they do not know what they will do
when it comes to harvesting their grain,
especially as the crop is going to be so
heavy" .. .-

letter from Fort WIangel says that a
skeleton was washed ashore in Whale
Bay, on Prince of Wales Island, which
is supposed to be the remains Of Major
Walker, one of the passengers by the
ill-fated steamer Geo. s. Wright. A
portion of the clothing found on the
remains, was in q good state of preser-
walton, and had upon it the insignia OF
rank and buttons worn by U. s. Pay
masters. Arrangements have been made
to take the remains to San Francisco

PAINFUL AcCIDENr.-From the route
agent between Portland and Tacoma,
the Portland Journal learns the follow
ing Particulars d an accident which
occurred on The Northern Peci6c Rail-
road onsthe Sth inst: = The train for
Tacoma was just approaching the long
trestle-work near the station of Center
vile when the engineer discovered q
man upon the track short distance
ahead. The warning was given for him
to clear the way, which he did; but
when the locomotive was within q few
yards of him, the man, being drunk,
again staggered on to the road. Down
brakes were whistled, but it was too
late; the engine struck the unfortunate
man while almost under full Roadway,
breaking q number Of his bones and
cutting great cash in his forehead.
The man would doubtless have been
killed had it not been for the brave
conduct of Mat Mccoy, the engineer,
who at the risk of his own life ran out
upon the cow-catcher and seized the
straggler, while he was almost in the
very act of passing under the wheels.
The unfortunate man is now lying OF
Centerville, and is, we are glad to say
in a fair way of recovery.

Yesterday afternoon very well-bred and
exceedingly dignlted young lady entered a
florists to make a purchase, when she was
accosted as follows by shrill voice resem.
bling that of an aged lady:
"Shut the door; don't you know any
better lJ's cold outside"
Very much overcome with modification
and embarrassment, she looked about for
the speaker, saying: pardon me, madam
but the wind blew SO could hardly shut
the door"
"Well, mind your eye, miss, and don't do
1T again" repeated the voice, when to her
great establishment and amusement the
young lady discovered that she had been
conversin with well-educated and GER
tainly very familiar poll parrot. Evidently
ammo, ed at the bird for deceiving her so, the
young lady turned her back to the cage and
was intent upon examining some flowers.
Suddenly the same voice, or what seemed
to be. said to her, What can l do for you,
miss ~
IF you hold your tongue shall be graf
flied above all things" replied the young
miss, turning around az she spoke, and dis
covering the lady proprietor standing in her
presence.
