PENrTENTrARY LABoR.-The joint COM
mittee on the Penitenriary has reported re-
solutions provid ng for an appropriation OF
$4,000 for he purchase of machinery for
the manufacture Of coarse cotton and wool
len goods, sufficient to employ the labor o.
thirty hands, and directing the Superin-
iendent TO proceed forthwith in the erec-
ton of the necessary buildings. From the
unanimty Of feeling on this subject, there
is no doubt but the project will be carried
and the nuisance be in so far abated.

OF Daniel Defoe, author of Robinson
Crus oe, possessed shrewd mind as well
as fruitful fancy. In his Weekly Re-
view," 1908, he spoke of the British pro-
tectionists as maintaining
"That it is a national evil to have cloth
ing cheap from abroad, rather than to ma
nuiacIure it dear at home."
1t is strange as true. that after the lapse
of near century and half, and in this
enlightened age, this silly and preposte-
rous doctrine is still advanced by the advo
Gates of protection" and many homes
men are duped into belief Of its truth.

Of A correspondent of the Sentinel,
writing from Jackson under date Both
January, says:
In the House. to day a very important
measure was brought up; Mr.. McCaughan
offered resolution mstructing the JGdici-
airy Committee TO inquire into the expedi.
ency of amending the laws regulating the
sale Of vIDnus liquors, so as TO allow all
fema es over fourteen to have vote upon
the question whether ardent spirits shall
be allowed 10 be IBtroduc ed into the com.
munites in which they reside, or not! II
measure of this nature is carried, it will
bring about Temperance Millennium, and
have blessed influence not ONLY upon the
social condition of those legislated for,
but upon Legislators themselves. No Wo-
MAN will cast her vote on the side of that
enemy who enters into the mouths oil
sweethearts and husbands. to steal away
their brains. Pass such a law, and the
reign of King Alcohol will be at an end
There is some prospect of the accomplish
ment OF the object contemplated BY the
resolution--it having passed by large
ma ority; ayes Sc, nays 80. The Harris
of Ponola, opposed it, on the ground that
it would create family broils; in repley to
which McCaughan remarked that it would
not cause halt the family. disseAsioRs Oc.

Resolped, That the Judiciary Com
mhtee be instructed to enquire into the
expediency of reporting a bill to amend
the laws of this State regulating The sale
of intoxicating liquors, so as 10 provide
that at regular periods of once in every
two years, or at such other times as ma,
be agreed upon, all male citizens entitled
TO vote. and all females of fourteen wear,
of age and upwards, permanent resident.
of this Stale, shall be permitted to vote
for or against allowing the sale of vinou
or spirituous liquors, in the Police Beat
in which such voters and females reside
and if it should be found that a majorui,
of the persons thus voting are opposed 1
the sale of such liquors, tina Boards of Pc
lice OF such beats, shall not license or per
nit any person to sell such spirits there
in; in any manner whatever; but shal
provide proper laws and penalties for vi

The Correspondence.

Gov. Browns message, giving cores
pondence in relation to the Lost Commi-
sion, occupies so much of our room thatwe
are compelled to omit the accompanying
comments we would wish 10 make.
1t will be seen to be true that DIR. Gwin,
we'll known Indian agent, interested per.
sonallyand deeply in the Chickasaw Ball
then before Congress, was cunningIy and
strongly recommended to the Governor as
the apPointee.
1t will be seen plainly that Gov. Brown
affixed only one contingency TO the appoint.
ment-Mr- Walkers resignation; and it
will also be seen that he clearly contem-
plated that Mr.. Thompson should have
been consulted.
The onus OF the suppression of the
commissions thrown wholly on Mr..
Walker. His afterthought about illegaIity
about any thing that would restrain him
from consulting MIR. Thompson-ls all
mere bubble. No discretion was left to
Gov. Brown. A governor has no power
TO refuse to accept resignation. The
resignation will be seen to be complete;
and Mr.. Thompson's commission was full
and indisputabie evidence that it had
been accepted. Gov. Brown, it is true,
committed the laundering absurdty of
pretending to delegate discretion over the
matter after completing the official act
But that delegation was the void part of
the transaction; not the appointment -
The Governor himself had no discretion,
much less the power TO delegate discre-
ton. He had no choice as TO accepting
or refusing the resignation, and after ma
king the appointment, he had no power to
stay or recallit.
No nice argument or quibble-no spe-
cial pleading-will relieve Mr.. Walker
from the suspicion that he DESTROYED the
commission only because it came, not for
the Indian agent for whom he was so SIRE
nuous, and who had his E%other views,' but
for the man who had frustrated their
schemes by his bold opposition, and whom
of all others the Indian intriguers had
most cause 20 hate. This is the motive
public opinion will assign him.
AS 10 Gov. Brown, he has only TO thank
his own double-deaings and attempts to
conceal and deceive, after the agitation oil
this matter, that any blame is to be attach
ed TO him concerning it. By his own
choice he has told so many different sto-
ries of the subject, and has SO often pro
fessed TO give full and frank disclosure:
which turned out afterwards nOt to be full
and frank disclosures, that we know
not when he does speak the truth. One
thing we Individually know-he has moi
given ALL the correspondence on this
subject, as he processes: or at least he has
not given other letters which he has shown
to honorable men as belonging to this cor
respondence, and which he assured them
were genuine. If this sentence meet;
his eye, he will feel Its truth, and he dare
not contradict it.
We have no more to say. We have
gained all for which we ever commended
We are sorry we have had to drag gu
what honesty would have revealed volunIa
rily. ESCntineI.

MODEST IGoCEsT.-A Mr.. Seawell pro-
poses to the members of the Legislature,
through the columns Of The Mississippan
that they shall by law give to him two
third Of Inc 100000 acres of land, dona-
ted by he General Government, and in
con~ der"ion he eior, be proposes 10 un-
derIake 10 levee the great va % swamp.
Except Mr.. Whitney, the great Oregon
railroad protector, who proposes that Con-
Grers shall grant him a strip of land SO
miles wide and l 800 miles long, (materiel
for an hundred dukedoms,) we have not
heard. lately, of so public spirited and dis
interested an individual as Mr.. Seawell.-
The Legislature bad as we'll strike bar.
gain with Mr.. S. as TO appropriate the pro.
ceeds of the sale of any portion of the
land to building little two or three feet
levee as projected by Gov. fuckers engi.
neer, and recommended by Gov. Brown in
his late mess &c, to be caved in or washed
away about as fasta a. it is scratched up. VIZ
believe that The experience is, that the
erection Of levees must follow, not pre-
cede, the settlement OF any district o
country to be recovered by such means
and even then very strict legal enactments
rigidIy enforced, are required to keep then
up.

OUR TITLE. In Matte Bruins Geo.
graphy-a standard work-book LxxxIx,
is the following passage:
mOn the west side of the mountains
TRocky1 the Americans have an unques-
toned claim to the country from the 42d
to the 10th parallel; and more doubtful
claim, which is disputed by Russia, TO the
country from the 49th to the Goth parallel"
This celebrated geographer takes no
notice of the British claims; considering
them too absurd for serious attention.
The dispute between the United States
and Russia was adjusted some time ago.
by mutual agreement in favor of the
parallel of 81 degrees and 40 minutes as
the boundary line between the respective
territories of the two nations. The pas
sage which we have quoted, is in the third
paragraph from the beginning of tue arti-
cle on the United Stales.'' 1t serves to
show the general opinion in favor of our
right to the whole Of Oregon No. Rep.

SUB. TREASURY BILL.-The main fea-
lures of the new independent treasury bill,
reported by the committee of ways and
means, are as follows: After The Both of
June, 1916, one-thild of all payments 10
the general government shall be made ia
specie-after the 3Oth June, lS47. two
thirds; and after the 9th June, 1913, no.
thing but gold and silver shall be receives
or paid by the general government. 1t
makes the mint at Philadelp hia and the
branch in New Orleans, treasures for the
safe-keeping of moneys. and provides for
the establishment of offices, safes, &c, al
other points. All collectors, postmaslers,
&c. are to be treasurers, and give securi-
ties. There are treasurers to be appoint.
ed at New York, Boston, Charleston and
ST. Louis. The one at New York is
to receive $4,000 year. and at each o.
the Others $500. The treasurer at the
mint in Philadelphia lis to receive $500
extra, aud at New Orleans $1,000.
1t makes it felony TO appropriate any o
the public moneys, and pFohibits any o
the treasurers from holding any of the mo
new either with or without interest.

o. The foreign news looked Cor with SO
much anxiey, will be found in our CO.
lumns this week, with an extract from the
London Times review of the Presidents
message. The papers, generally, consider
these accounts decidedly pacific" This
seems to be grounded, mainly, upon the
restoration of the Peel ministry. But what
reasons there a. e for such conclusions, we
are at loss TO conceive. Sir Rob't PeeI's
cabinet is already committed against the
acceptance of the 49th parallel as a COM
promise under their direction the sc war
like preparations" of which we have read
so much, haze been made, and the British
p"eteDs;ons have been reiterated and ad-
vanced, unld The question has assumed its
present threatening aspect. How, then,
does the res oY;on of this cabinet augur a
termination of,he controversy?
