Rs" We clip the following from the
" Cotton Plant,' paper published in Loui-
siana;
"A New RoUTF To THE PAcIFIc.-We
have just learned that very important bill
has been put through the Texas Legislature.
The bill grants to the Barings, of London,
the right of way from Houston, Texas, 10
FL Passo. They ask for no land-nothing
but the right of way. Their agent has
pledged the faith Of the Barings, aud forty
million of dollars, 10 carry out the matter
at once. They intend carrying the road TO
the Pacific and it is understood the Mexi-
can Government are prepared to grant the
right Of way over their territory. If Con
gress does not favor the road, the Pacific
terminus will be made more to the south
ward, and on Mexican soil"
This precious piece of bullyis.n, though
perfectly Characteristic of the source from
whence it comes, will have no sort of effect
The United States are not 10 be humbugged
or alarmed by any such do it if you dare {"
kind of argument So far as the Pacific
rail road is concerned, the country is in
earnest, and determined 10 construct the
great work upon the only true route, which
of couTse leads directly 10 Puget Sound, the
" harbor of harboTs" " for the shipping of all
the nations of earth In conclusion, we
can say 10 the "Coton Plant" that whilst
the Pacific rail road will be constructed by
the Government of the United States and
upon its own soil, nobody will object to an
other road being made by whomsoever may
undertake ii. Brag will not win this time,
Of which important little fact, Texas should
be informed. However, if she can accom-
Plish the matter on her own responsibility,
or with the aid of her Mexican friends and
the faith of the Barings, she can do so with
our free consent.

The Cascade ROad-Cheering News.

We learn from a gentleman who has just
come in from the White river region, that
he met the party under the direction Of E.
J. ALLEN on Friday, 29th ult They were
all in fine spirits and felt confident that the
road would be opened BY the last of this
month, if not soon2r, He speaks Of the
White river country as being choice por-
;lon of our Territory, and commends in the
highest terms its beauty and fertility. We
venture the opinion that ere long an enter
Prising and intelligent population will make
there delightful scene OF substantial thrift
and most rapturous loyelines5. From a
note from Mr.. ALLEN 10 A. w. Moore,
we have been permitted to CLEAN that the
party are getting along well have cleared
out the old cut road for about six miles :;
have viewed out road TO escape the three
worst hills on the whole route, which being
heavily timbered, has been fred and will be
opened on the return. This party consists
of eighteen good men, and all are getting
along finely. have heard from Mr.. KIRr-
LEY, he is going it like fire and from Capt.
MCCLELLAN across the mountains. The
Indians say he is coming through on this
route
We must conclude that the road will,
without doubt, be soon completed, and as
those engaged in doing the work have called
for funds, it is hoped that those of our cili-
zens who have subscribed, will lose no time
in paying over to some member of the COM
mittee. We are assured that the friends
of the road will require no further invita-
tion. Think only for a moment of the BEN
e6ts you can confer upon the immigration
and the Territory, and the sure enhance
ment of the value of your property, and
then" call at the Captains office and sell
tle."

The SANDWICH IsLANDs.-We received
by last mail, full file of the " Polynesi-
an" published at Honolulu, from which we
take the following;
"The natural resources of Washington
territory, fully justify the anticipaiions of
the people, and the day is not distant when
we shall have direct commercial intercourse
with that part of the world. They want
our products, and we want theirs, and ne
cessities will doubtless soon lead 10 a cult
vation Of acquaintance"

A New VEGETABLE Discovery. "A
plant has been recently discovered in this
country which is capable Of being applied
to very useful purposes, in the manufacture
Of oil for illumination and all other to which
the oil of olives is applied. The oil is ex-
pressed from the seed, which is capable of
yielding nearly or quite one third weight,
and the plant is produced in large quaint
ties on the most arid soils. The oil is sweet
and of brilliant yellow. A full dcscrip-
tion of the plant is now being prepared
which will be published at an early day

The American japanese ExDedItioa.

The United States steam frigate Mississip-
pi, Captain Lee, arrived here on the 25ih
ult., and len for China on the 29lh. This
is one of the 6eet destined for the expedi-
ton TO Japan. The result of this demon
stration will be known before the close Of
the year. Should it be successful, il will
exert great influence on the commercial
and political affairs Of this part of The world
A large, populouS, and comparatively civil
lied empire will be thrown open to CONNER
cial enterprise, and a new outlet will thus
be made for European manufactures, which
cannot fail ultimately 10 become exlremsg
valuable 10 the commerce Of Europe and
America. But even should the 6rst eforts
Of the United Sistes government to esiab-
lish relations with Japan prove unsuccessful,
it is not likely that il win lhereupon relin.,
quish its purpose. Further measures wa
be adopted, and it may be assumed that No
result desired will sooner or later be brought
about. Having thus entered upon dinsI'
ent course Of policy from that which hn
hitherto appeared TO characterise the UNI
ted States GoverDment-viz: an absence
from interference in distant quarieFs--W,
cannot suppose that they will stop short, sad
content themselves With their operations 10
Japan. 1t is probable that they will nexi
endeayor to obtain footing in China, ano
Chusan, which was so foolishly given up9
the English, will probably, ere many Yeas
elapse, be an American settlement. There
will be no lack Of occasion for quarrel WIN
the Chinese, if that is needed, for the -.
complshment Of the plans Of the United
States. They have Plenipotenliary in Chr

of his craft, If he cannot find cause for o.

HARvEsT.-Our farmers are now actively
engaged in gathering their crops, which, we
are told, fully meet their expectations. The
yield is said to be large, andthe specimens
of wheat we have seen would attract atten-
ton al the Agricultural fairs in the east
The general productions Of the present
year are superior to those of the past. The
harvesters may sing their merry choruses al
the top of their voices.

CHowDER PARrY.--On Saturday last a
number of ladies and gentlemen, our own
happy self included, enjoyed delightful
sail on the Sound, in the sloOp "Sarah
Stone," Capt. SLATER, for whose kindness
we are very grateful, and par;ook of all the
luxuries peculiar to an aquatic picnic
Such pleasures on this far northwest coast
should be evidence to our friends in the
States that we are not by any means with
out the pale of civilization.

OREGON ALARMED-Eaise Reports.-A
gentleman just from Oregon tells US the pco-
pie of that Territory are both frightened
and enraged at the certainty of an inmi-
grant road being opened to the Sound from
Walla-wflla. We presume he means the
Piratical speculators, the voracious sharks
that play about Portland and The Dalles.-
They have sent out reports to the immi-
grants saying that merely the eastern en-
trance on the route TO the Sound has been
opened, and that our plan is to get them
started in this direction and then make them
cut their way through. What burlesque, !,
How false, utterly false.

Bolton & Wilson, Steilacoom, for regular

the early part Of the week. She will un-
doubtedly sail fast, and we hope, make
money for her owner, Capt. HIRAM H.
McNEAR, who also commands her. All
agree that her appearance does credit to
her constructors.

ARMS FOR MExIco.-1he New York
Herald of late date says rumors are ahoat
that George Law is negotiating with Santa
Anna for the transfer of those muskets which
created such nervous anxiety among the
Cuban authorities some months ago. 1t is
limited that if Santa Anna has the where
with to pay for the celebrated weapons he
can have them. The same paper conjec.
lures that Spain is fulfilling contract with
Santa Anna for the supply of ordnance,
small arms and munitions of war.

Mr.. S D. RuDDELL placed upon "our
table " this week about half bushel ol
very large new potatoes, and three mammoth
turnips. They are splendid specimens Of
Washington Territory vegetables, and are
well worth looking at.

pail full of peas and cucumbers, and head
of cabbage weighing 10 pounds, from con-
slant contributors.

EXCELSIOR.

re A good story is told of an accentric
gentleman, why although occasionly ad-
dicted TO the habit of swearing, was still
most punctillious in regard to saying grace
at his table, and this duty he never omitted
on any occasion.
The story runs that on certain occa-
sion the old gentlemen invited sea cap
tain, jolly old weather beaten tar of his
acquaintance, to dine with him. They
sat down to dinner, and the old gentleman
according to custom commenced saying
grace ; but the captain, whose attention
had been diverted for the moment, hear
ing the old man speak, though he was ad-
dressing him, and turned to him with
