LIFE IN COMMUNICATING AC
COUNT OF THE PROGRESS OF THE
SETTLEMENT AT THE "END" OF
THE GREAT WEST.
The following is an extract from letter dated at
Walamet Oregon Territory, Feb 10, 1s41, publish
ed in the National Inteigencer:
will now tell you something of the people Of
this country. There are about seventy-fvet to eighty
French Canadians settled in this country principally
discharged from the service ofthe Hudson Bay Com
pany and also about fifty Americans settled in and
about this country making, perhaps, one hundred
and twenty-five to one hundred and thirty male in
habltants who are married to Indian women. They
raise from their farms on an average, from three to
five hundred, and some from ten to twelve hundred
bushels of wheat besides great quantities of peas
potatoes, oats, barley, corn, &c
The Hudson Bay Company have in their employ
at Fort Vancouver about one hundred and twenty
five persons, and many in several other forts both
sides of the Rocky Mountains. These people, as
said before, are married to Indian women, and live
very much the same, in all respects as our farmers
at home, with the exception of not being Obliged to
labor half as much they generally have from fiftv
to one hundred head of horses half as many cows,
and about the same number of hogs; these all take
care ofthemselves The people here cut no hay and
make no pastures; they do not give their hogs any
feed excepting for about a month before thew kill
them. There is one church here, and the people
have contracted for brick church and other build
lngs necessary such as aschooLhouse for the French
and one for the Americans
The French have one priest here, and one at Fort
Vancouver The Americans generally attend at the
mission, and, as far as see, the people here are
as well behaved and moral as in our town We
have now comm ttee at work draughng consti-
tuition and code of laws have in nomination a gov
ernor an attorney general three justices ofthe peace,
&c. overseer of the poor, road commissioners, SC
We have already chosen supreme Judge with pro-
bate powers, clerk othe court and recorder high
sheriff. and three consables so you see we are in
fair way of starting rival republic on this side of
the Mountains especially as we are constantly re-
ceiving recruits-those people whose time has ex-
pred with the Hudson Bay Company and from the
Mountain hunters coming down to settle.
