An ASTORIA FOREST FIRE.-Ths Asto-
Tian describes a recent fire in the vicin-
ity Of it's town as follows: During the
last week q fire was out across Youne's
Bay that starting at first as Q little
sInouldering mass, was famed into q
fierce fame by the dry winds from the
east. Friday last the scene as described
by An eye witness was grand. Great
trees were clouds Of smoke BY day and
pillars Of fire by night. Crimson sheets
of 6ame strealned out from giant pines
and great heaps Of burning moss blown
through the air lodged in the tops Of
adjacent trees, instantly converting
them into mass Of flames that encir-
cled tho trunk and rose high in the air
above. Tho roar Of tho flames was dis
tinctly heard in town. Fortunately no
great damage was done, though wood
men in the impediate nei2hborhood had
great difficulty in saving that which Vas
cut and piled.
