The storm prophesied by one Wig

The storm prophesed by one Wig
gins failed to connect on this coast,
and there was only an ordinary storm
the prophecy may be set down as a
humbug throughout. In some places
in the east the reports of the storm
created much excitement, and some
people went crazy. The newspapers
gave the weather crank too much no.
tice, and should let such things alone
hereafter.

\ Dutch fort at Curacao fired a
solid shot at an American vessel re-
Gently. The affair seems to be the re-
suit of misunderstanding and accident
a press dispatch says: The explana-
tion given of the Dutch insult TO our
flag at Curacao is that the pass for the
Valencia, which should have been
handed to the commander of the fort,
as his notification that she would go
out of the harbor was handed by the
customs authorities to a policeman,
who got drunk and failed to deliver it.
In the meantime the steamer proceed
ed under way. As the ship neared the
fort, the commander, who had not re-
ceived the pass, gave orders TO fire
blank cartridges across the Nalenca's
bow, a. a signal to heave to. In the
excitement which prevailed at the gar
rison at the unprecedented circum-
stance of steamer attempting to leave
without a pass a shotted gun was Tired,
which, when discovered by the COM
mander. caused as much excitement
IN the fort as aboard the Valencia.

There is some land jumping going
on at Seattle, which creates consider
able excitement, as none Of the parties
claiming the lands have any right to
them. The InteHigencer gives the fol-
lowing account Of the affair:
a few days ago :. :. Bailey, lessee
Of the New England hotel, and Robert
Abrams employed pile driver to pile
in small portion of the flats south Of
the city. The railroad, which claims
these flats, through its attorneys, got
out iniunctions to stop the work, not,
however, till certain portions of the
flats had been piled in. During Tues
day night the steamers Edna and Ce-
lilo were employed to pull out the
piles. While engaged in this work Mr.
Bailey turned his Heufy rifle upon the
steamers, firing several shots into the
Cello. No one was injured, however,
but the steamers thinking discretion
the better part of valor retired in good
order. Wednesday Messrs. Abrams
and Bailey secured cannon, which
they loaded up, and gave notice that
they would turn IL loose on anyone at
tempting to interfere with eirpiling.
A great many arrests and re-arrests
were made. aud IL is thought the mat
ter will remain In statu quo until adj
Indicated in the courts.

GERS to hold office in the Territories be-
came law during the closing hours

that he has finally won Il victory in
the long crusade against him.

\ Washington dispatch gives the
following among the last incidents of
the congressional session just expired:
As has been stated, the attempt to seat
Lee of South Carolina, the colored
nan who contested the seat of Mr..
Richardson, completely blocked the
bonded whiskey bill, the shipping bill
and all other business in the house of
representatives during the last day
and night session. In this connection
a story is published that agents of the
whiskey men offered Lee $4,000 to
withdraw and allow the bonded whis-
key bill to come to vote. 1t is also
said that while the house was in a
deadlock over the election case, and
nothing could be done without unani-
nous consent, a good many republic
cans were willing to abandon the ne
gro contestant for the sake Of obtain
ing consideration of the business in
which they were most interested. FL
udiIN Que Ol tDtui went over W I1Oi-
man, Independent, who is always on
the alert for jobs, and never hesitates
to object to any bill that looks suspic-
ious, no matter whether its patron be
republican or democrat, and said to
him: 1--WE are ready to allow the res
olution to seat Lee to be laid on the
table, so we can go Oh with other bus
mess" sob, you are" replied Hol-
man. LET me tell you that shall not
be done. The niger is worth his
weight in gold where he is row, and
there he shall stay until this congress
expires"
Had that bonded whiskey bill passed
the government would have lost sixty
million dollars tax on whiskey now
lying in bonded warehouses, and the
whiskey manufacturers would have
been just that much ahead.

A San Francisco dispatch of Friday
says that immigration to the north
west has greatly increased during the
past six weeks, and private advices re-
ceived here state that large current
of intending settlers will commence
shortly, continuing throughout the
summer. Since the opening of the
southern route, Oregon and Washing
ton, principally the latter, have been
the objective points of half the immi-
grants coming west. Business has as
sumed such proportions that outgoing
steamers for points in the vicinity of
future settlements, have carried heavy
steerage lists, and quite formidable
number of first-class passengers, who
intend settling there permanently as
a general rule.

The city council of Portland has
amended the license ordinance, rails
ing the price of liquor licenses from
5000 to $500 per annum. This action
makes great stir among saloon keep
ers, and it is expected that if the ordi-
nance is faithfully enforced it will
close up at least half of the saloons in
Portland. There will be enough left
then to supply all the wants of the
community in the way of drinking.
