MIR BILLINGS HAS RESIGNED.

When the people Of Washington
Territory read letter, dated New
York, March l4th. 1881, addressed to
Mr. Henry Willard and signed by. Mr.
Frederick Billings, they felt that they
would shortly have competing railroad
rates between their seapcrts and their
productive regions, and they fervently
said, God bless you, Mr. Billings The
people rejoiced as they read the utter
ances of Mr. Billings:
The price you mention is probably

WHAT IT WAS ALL ABoUT.-A San
Francisco paper explains it a. follows:
Yesterday was the anniversary of the
battle of Bunker Hill, little misun-
dsrstanding that occurred between Q
small party Of early settlers on the
Eastern side Of the Continent of North
America and q few thousand British
soldiers who had come out on o picnic
excursion. Il happened some years
ago, and the details that have come
down are msager and conflicting. but
the main facts appear to be that there
was dispute as to who should occupy
Q small mound called Bunker Hill.
The settlers thought to steal march
on the picnic party and tried 10 find
the hill Ia the night They missed
their way and pitched camp on place
called Breeds Hill. The picnickers
didnt know one bill frcea another. and
seeing the settlers on Breeds Hill, in
the morning. they Get out to drive them
away. At first they didn't drive worth
. cent. and. 80 often occurs on picnic
excursions, . row occurred, during
which number were killed. After
awhile the weather becoming too warm
tor comfort, the settlers gave nm
part Of the ground. which, after thew
got it, the picnickers suddenly found
out was not the place they wanted.
IL was about this aght that 20 many
nAgs were flying yesterday.

OUR TRADE WITH BRITISH CO.
LUHRIA.

Consul Francis has written the fol-
lowing for publication in the American
E1Torter:
During the fourth quarter of 1880
there were SO arrivals and 81 depart
ures of American vessels; 80 were
ocean steamers, engaged in making reg
ulsr monthly and semi-monthly trips
from and TO United States ports, and
were small scbooners. Of the latter
remaining in port; aggregate tonnage
entering. 40.S72; clearing. 40,7l6.
Three arrivals end departures of for
eign vessels; tonnage. l7l6. One YES
sci. the English bark Glen Fruin, coal
laden, from Newcastle, New South
Wsles. and bound for Portland, Oregon,
was wrecked on the west coast of this
island on the 9Th If December last. No
lives lost.
The value of imports in American
vessels during the quarter. productions
of the United States and foreign coun~
tries, amount, as reported. to S373,353.
of which 1920. 900 were the produce of
the United States; and the exports. on
the return of these vessels TO the Uni.
ted States, TO 1897 ,90l. of which $780,
079 was in gold dust and bars, and
$3.50 1888 for coal from Nsniamo, in
American and foreign vessels. The i'm.
ports in foreign vessels are estimated
ct $4,000. and the exports on the
same to foreign countries, salmon, OF (!
and wool, $4,000. Taking the ex-
ports from the other ports in the Prov
ince. principally lumber and salmon,
and it is conjectured the imports and
exports will about balance for the quar-
ter.
Pains have been taken to learn what
particular class of American goods are
most in demand in this market. All
kinds have been found, from Q needle
to q threshing machine, though none
are imported direct from the manufac.
tories, and many have preference over
the productions Of other countries.
There has been only O very limited
trade opened between this Province
and the Eastern States. In this city
there are five or six wholesale houses.
and all dealing more or less in Ameri-
can goods, which are purchased in San
Francisco. OF retail establishments,
dealing in drygoods. hardware, steel,
iron, cutlery, agricultural implements,
groceries, ship stores, boots and shoes,
etc, some thirty, also purchasing in
San Francisco and Portland. Oregon.
Several merchants, by way of expert
ment within the past year have ordered
goods from Canada, which have been
shipped across the continent by rail and
in sailing vessel by way of Cape
Horn. In the case OF the former, in the
line Of American goods, am told they
find it more advantageous to purchase
in San Francisco; and the ITO or more
days by sailing vessels, involving 90
much delay, and the payment of the
goods 80 many months before their ar.
RIVAL. was found to leave the merchant
no margin for profit, and the goods out
of season: this experiment meets with
no favor.

Yet, will it be believed, within and around Otta-

of course, to be called hunters) who annually
slaughter and carry off dozen or more Of those
domesticated elk and deer, and wha. particular
