Times Of holding the District Courts in the
Territory of Washington,

The following is the law passed by the
last Legislature, regulating the times Of
holding courts in the several districts
throughout the Territory
Two terms Of the District court shall be held in
cach county every year; except those counties attach
ed 10 Other counties for Judicial purposes.
Inc District Courts in and fer the county Of Jeier-
son shall he held on the first Monday in April and
Octohcr inr the county of Island on the second Mon
day in April and October; for the county Of Whatcon
on the third Monday in April and October; for the
county Of King, on the fourth Moldayin April and
October for the county of Pierce on the lt Monday
in May and November [Chief Justice LANDgR pre-
siding.l
The District Courts in and for the county of Thurs
ton shall be held on the second Monday in NAV and
November; for the county Of Sawamish on the third
Monday in May and November: for the county Of

Judge Monroe presding.l
The District Courts in and for the county of Ska
mania shall he held on the last Monday in March and
September for the county OF Clarke one week after
the time appointed for Skamania; for the county of

pointed for Clarke county; for the county of Pacific
one week after the time appointed for COwlitz county
tJudge McFADDEN presiding.
, 1854-09-23
Judge NIcFaddcn.

We have heretofore neglected TO make
mention of the fact, that Judge McFADDEN,
has been duly qualified as Judge of the
lst Judicial District, has taken up his resi-
dcncc at Ft. Vancouver, and at the ap-
preaching courts, will enter upon the dis
charge of his duties as associate Judge of
this territory for the district referred to-
The Oregon papers speak of Judge Nc
Faddcn in the highest terms of commen-
dation, and we hope he will find a resi-
dence amongst the people of this territory
on the Columbia river, agreeable in the
highest degree.
The following explanatory, and compli-
mentary noticeof the Judge, we copy from
the Portland (Orcgon) Standard, of late
date:
In justification of Judge McFadden's
delay in going to Washington Territory to
enter upon his duties, he told us that he
did not receive his commission till late
period in the month of May; that he was
apprised by the law as published in the
Pioneer and Democrat, that the time for
holding courts in his judicial district was
not until the last week in September, instead
of the time designed by our correspondent;
that he had been sick some seven or eight
days, and had been detained in consequence;
that he should have written to some one in
his district Opprising him of his intentions
to be at his post in time had he known
any person in the district to whom to write; ;
all Of which reason we cheerfully insert in
our columns as his defence of bis delay,
and trust they may have their proper
weight in the minds of the good people of
Clark county. We personally have no
reason to condemn Judge McFadden, and
if his reasons assigned are a sufficient ex-
PLANTATION to the people of his district,
then we cheerfully concur, and trust his
dispensing of justice in hisnew sphere may
be equalled only by the demands for justice
created in his district.

IDoLATRY IN JAPAN.-An officer in the
.. S. frigate Powhattan, writing from
Japan, says:
" Idolatry is everywhere to be seen,
even more than in China, and statuary
seems to be very common. The graveyards
are full of rude sculptures, and images of
gods and heroes, placed there as tutelOr
guardian on the tomb stones, or for some
such purpose. Tibetan letters and senten-
ces are used as charms about the graves,
no one knowing at all what they mean if
they were ineligible, the charm would be
broken. Temples are common, and way
side divinities present their weather beaten
faces every few rods"
