Judge Monroe.

We cheerfully give place to the following
article from our correspondent " Aristides, y
relative to the unexpected removal Of Hon.
VIcToR MONROE, as associate Judge of this
Territory. We are informed that his re-
moval was caused by supposition with
the Executive, that he had removed from
the territory, leaving a vacancy to the
bench in consequence. We are not aware
that the Judge designs to remove from the
territory at all, but will, in all probability
remain, and pursue the practice of his pro-
fessiOn, for which his ability so eminently
qualities him.
The new appointee, Hon. F. A., Cheno
weth, will, no doubt, give general satisfac.
tion, and rumor says he will probably make
an exchange of districts with Judge Nc
Fadden--thus remaining on the Columbia
which would bring Judge McF to the
Sound.
FRIEND WILEY The late mails from
Washington City having confirmed the
previous rumor of the removal of the Hon
V1cToR MONROE, from the elevated posi-
tion which he held, as Associate Justice ot
the Supreme Court for the second Judicial
District, in our Territory, will you permit
me to give expression, through your col
um2s, to a very general and very widely
exhibited sentiment of regret at the loss
our territory will sustain from this removal
Touching his successor, who will shortly
hold the regular term of court in our midst
itmay become us at present to say nothing
sufficient for the day is the evil thereof
but as law loving and law abiding citizens
who regard well regulated and properly
administered Judiciary as the great bulwark
Of our civil religious liberties, we hesitate
not to aver that our confidence in Judge
Monroe, regarding legal acumeD, clear and
peculiar power of discrimination, his supe'
rior adaptatiOnfor the Bench, his high toned
and Incorporating adherence Of all the
low trickeries and chicaneries Of the pro
fession, his fearless utterance and advocacy
Of bis opinion, on all suitable occasions
perfectly regardless Of popular prejudicei
or popular errors, remain unimpaired
and mistaken, and demand from us our
hearty admiration and support. ..

We copy from the Baltimore American
the following tribute to our worthy fellow
citizen, Capt. Tilton:
APPOINTMENTS. We learn with pleasure
that President Pierce has appointed Mr..
Tilton, Of the Regiment Of Voltigeurs in
the Mexican War, Surveyor General Of
Washington Territory,
Mr.. TiltOn was one of those who carried
the flag Of his regiment up the fortified
heights Of Chepultepec, having had it Ell
ther directly preceding, or after captain
Barnard, and having borne It until he re-
ceived q severe wound in the eye, which
confused him for the moment, though he
recovered in time to be one of the foremost
in the fnal escalade. "a f.1 49,.
Mexicans, in describing the battle say
the Americans assaulted in two parties,
from different sides, one party carrying a
black and the other a white flag. There
having been no black flag in the possession
of any one, 1t seems that the small dark
blue flag Of the Voltigeur regiment, was
mistaken for black flag, and understood
as threat Of no quarter on an obstinate
resistance. 1t became then point Of at
traction for the enemie'sN fire, and the dan
ger Of carrying il may be estimated from
its present cut up state.
Mr.. TiIton's former comrades are now
widely scattered throughout the habitabIe
globe, from Canton to st Petersburgh; but
those who have made their home in our
growing empire, on the shores Of the Pa
cifc, will look forward with pleasure to the
arrival amongst them of one SO deservedIy

Fuss and Feathers.

One would think from reading the two
or three last numbers of the OTegonian
and the proceedings of an indignation
meeting" recently held in the patrioti
(gassy) city of Portland, that the whole o
that community had been terribly outraged
because Acting Governor Curry did moi
appoint some one of their citizens adjutant
general, or commissary, in the late contem
plated expedition against the Snake lndt
ans. Now, if we have been correctly i'll
formed, not one of the valiant tape-pedlar'
in time of peace, and beef eaters in time o
war Indignation" heroes, volunteered, oil
offered their services to the Governor mp tC
the time the companies called for in the
proclamation were lilled-they kept CLOSED
ports until they found that the Governor
had seen ft to revoke his proclamation
then, with all the valor of the ArkansaN
bully, they pitched in to find "who STRUCK
Billy Patterson"
We know very little of the circumstan
ces which influenced Gov Curry to coun
termand his first proclamation, but certain
ly think (and we have had two winters ex
perience in the neighborhood Of the Rocky
and Blue mountains, that he pursued the
wiser course in suspending operations unit
spring, and then-should the Government
in the mean time, do nothing in the prem
ises--enough men can be raised on this side
of the mountains to exterminate or bring
to terms every hostile Indian from the Gas
cade to the Rocky mountains, and that too
if it need be, without the assistance of any
Of the valorous yOutlg gentlemen who are
always making themselves so numerous al
Indignation meetings" when if they had
a particle of modesty or good sense, they
would leave the complaints to be made BY
those who were ready and willing to &c
but were disbanded by the Governor.
We are inclined to the opinion, from
what little we know of Gov. Curry, that
he will still ARE, and go on his own way
sustained by four-ffths, at least, of the citi
zens of Oregon, notwithstanding the blOot
and thunder resolutions of half a dozer
carefully prcserred popinjays, led on by tht
valiant editor Of the Oregonian. +
