other city on the coast this year. one
of them sold thirty-seven househoio
stoves in twelve hours. For naru-ul
town. this is pretty good work. Asto'
ria is not so dead as some people seem
to think.

OUR DAILY RHYME.

Oh, Baby Ruth, sweet Baby Ruth,
We weep at your undoing;
Your little nose is out of joint,
Your little sisters cooling.
And papa, wedged in cares of state,
Must all his feelings smother;
He grumbles at this chance of fate
That robbed you of brother.
He wants boy, and that's the truth,
You both feel mad, sweet Baby Ruth.

Captain p. II. Grim of the steamer
Harrison reported yesterday that on
the 9th inst, 10 miles south Of the ST.
uslaw river and 8 miles off shore, he
fell in with the schooner Mary Bidwell
with her union reversed and other sig
nails of distress flying. He stood along
side her and her mate came off to him
in a boat. 1t was quickly ascertained
that the schooner with crew of six
men, was 81 days out from San Fran
cisco, and that all on board were in a
state of starvation. They had lost their
bearings and had been beating about
in the fog off the mouth of the Siuslaw
for ten days. Captain Grim had forty
passengers aboard and was himself un-
certain of making port on account of
the fog, but did not hesitate moment
about giving to the starving vessel ev-
cry atom of food he could possibly
spare. Twenty pounds of pork, q sack
of flour, sugar, potatoes, tea, biscuits,
and thirty gallons Of water were trans
ferred to the schooner, and she was d.
rected to a position near the beach
from which, when the fog lifted, she
could be seen by the tugs. The poor
fellows We're very grateful for the as
sistance rendered them, and wanted to
give an order on the owners of the
schooner for the value of the food, but
, Captain Grim refused to accept any
thing of the kind, and told them he
/, only wished he could have done more.
