LONGFELLow,s AUrOeRAPHs.

Longfellow's courtesy was as unfail-
Jig as the demands upon ii were numer-
GUS and pressing. Very few imagine
what a tax it is upon the time Of our
more prominent authors simply to write
the autographs which are requested of
them. He almost invariably complied
with such requests, when made in o
proper manner, wearisome as it must
often have been to do SO. Not long be-
fore his death he had letter from o
Western boy, who sent his name, desir !.
ing him 10 translate II into every language
he knew, and send it back to him with
his autograph The poet was amused
at the request, but it is doubtful whether
he found time to crafty that boy.

THE French habit Of employing dates
when speaking Of important political
events is, doubtless, very convenient,
but, all the same, il is rather puzzling
for the reader who hasn't followed
French politics closely. For instance,
q Republican paper remarks in lead
ing editorial: "The men Of the l6th OF
May have nothing TO fear from the men
Of the 4th Of September. unless new
18th Of March, resuscitating the days Of
June or those Of May, should conduct
us to another I'd OF December, or an
other 18th Of Brumaire."

at this matter in a sober, sensible
manner, and not stand in their own
light, than to make a fatal mistake
in the start and then bewail their
luck afterwards. "God helps those
who helps themselves" is maxim
we'll known, and it is equally true
that capitalists shower THEIR favors
where people make enterprising eff
fort in their own behalf. 1t is to
be hoped that residents of Jefferson
and adjoining counties will conclude
it best to even GIVE away half their
land if by so doing they can double
or treble the value of the remaining
half. If they do, railway from
Quimper peninsula connecting with
the N. P. r. r. at or near Tenino
will speedily resolve itself into an
actual fact instead of a visionary
hope. Now is the golden moment.
"Strike while you may; no morning
sun lasts the whole day."

A NEW and modified Chimes, re.
striction Bill passed the lower House
of Congress last week by a tremen'
dous majority, after a stormy debate.
1t was sent to the Senate with a
prospect of reaching action early
this week. 1t is to be hoped that
some reasonable measure will be
consummated before the close Of
the present session, and that it will
have support enough to pass over
the Presidents veto should he
choose to withhold his approval.

That Columbia Bar.

In the S. "Alta" of recent date
appears an extract from letter written
by one of the owners Of the American
ship Reporter, which beat about five
weeks outside the Columbia river bar
before crossing. The letter is directed
to a ship broker in Portland, and the
extract reads as follows:
"Yours received and noted. / am
glad to note a stir for more tugs, and
hope that it will amount to something,
as it does appear to me that your people
must do something to remedy the trou-
BILE, else ships will avoid Portland. No
ship of ours will go to Portland again
until we are sure Of different treatm ent,
and I find that ships drawing only
twenty feet of water don't care to go the
second time"
The above is one of the many evil
dences accumulating lately that the
commercial world is waking up to a
realizing sense of the real dangers
about the Columbia river bar.
SHOOTING. Tuesday afternoon a
soldier from Fort Townsend entered
the hut occupied by old Indian Duke
OF York, on the beach above town,
where he got into row with the Indian
and one OF the latter's wives. The re-
suit OF the row was that the soldier
shot twice at the Indian or squaw (ac-
counts differ as to which) one Of the
shots taking effect in the breast Of the
squaw, and glanoing on rib and rang
ing upward taking effect in the throat.
The soldier, Frederick Falkenberg, by
name, sergeant, then went on to the
station. A crowd soon gathered at the
scene of the shooting, when Drs. Minor
and Meade made an examination but
failed to find the bullet. An officer was
dispatched to the fort and arrested
Falkenberg, bringing him to town.
During the night some one evidently
scared the Indians, as they removed the
injured squaw across the bay. We'd
nesday morning, however, they were
sent TO bring her back, which they did,
and she was taken to the marine hos
pital. Falkenberg was arraigned be-
fore Justice Van Bokkelen and asked
for time to plead, he having employed
O. M. Bradshaw, Esq, as counsel, and
that gentleman having business that
, 1882-04-28

called him to Seattle. The hearing will
be had today. At present writing the
squaw seems to be doing well, but her
case may terminate fatally even yet.
" Mrs. Frank Tucker begs to inform
her friends and the public generally
that she will be prepared to receive
Boarders the 1st of May. Board $3.50
per week. 9;lm.

FIVE years ago this week the AR
GUS newspaper and job Office were
purchased by their present propri~
etor. That the business has been a
success under its present manage
ment has been fairly and conlu-
slvely proven. It's growth since the
commencement of the present year
has been NEST gratifying.

BY Universal Accord,

AYERS CATnARTIc PILLS are the best
OF all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians In
their practice, and by all civilized ma
lions, proves them the best and most
ciiectual purgatiye Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
ctablc no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant 10 take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers 10 other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, viii
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain Ia healthy action the whole
machinery Of life. Mild, searching and
ehcctual, they are especially adapted
TO the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, II timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened consiltu-
tions, where mild but ehcetual
cathnrtic is required.
