 The steamer Northwestern arrived from the south last night at 8 o'clocK with 176 tons of freight for this city, of which 61 tons are to go out to points along the railroad.

 The Kansas City is owned by the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and is being operated between Panama, San Francisco and Portland. She was built at Chester, Pa, in 1883, and her speed is IT knots and her engines have 4,000 indicated horse- power. Her dimensions are: length. 327 feet: beam, 45 feet.

 One of the largest mails ever re- ceived at Cordova arrived on the steamer Northwestern from the south last night. Postmaster H. G. Steel stated that it was practically half of all that left Seattle for all points in the erriory.
