IT is FALSE The two numbers Of the
Puget Sound Courier, now published, eacl
throw out inucndoes, that Col. Anderson
our delegate to Congress, will not return
to thiso oerritory, should he be elected, and
we have heard the same thing circulating
in our county amongst those who would
fain find cause Of complaint and disaffec
ton. To such inuendoes, and such reports,
we will now, for all, give positive contra
diction, and we speak with authority. Col
Anderson has never intimated that he
would not return TO this territory II elected
but has always said, and siiIl says, it is
his fixed purpose to return, Il his life is
spared, should he be elected. We dislike
TO deal with such ungrounded and unfair
charges or insinuations ns these, but hope
the necessity Of the case will justify u.s.
Our sincere wish is that the people may be
placed in full possession of the truth, on all
subjects relating to this canvass, and VIC
therefore pronounce the above rumor q
false and malicious fabrication.

WORTHY OF HIS FATHER.-In New Or
leans papers Of the 18th we find some Mexi.
can news, the most of which, however, has
been anticipated by telegraph. The follow
ing, which we take from this news, illustrates
that Santa Anna has son worthy Of him
self:
Pope SAINT, Anna. the Presidents son, has
been guilty of an act of barbarous cruelty
Gen. Plutarco Cabrera, having captured the
village de Zepotha ell Grande, made prisoners
of some thirty. five inoffensive inhabitants, and
was conducting them to Guadalajara when
he met Pope Santa Anna and his lancers.
Pope took possession of the prisoners, upon
whom he exercised the most savage violence.
After placing them between two lines OF
cavalry, and forcing them TO follow the gal.
Looping horses. he dragged them to an avenue
skirted with trees, and hanged them singly
one after another, taking the precaution SO
to adjust the ropes SO as to proong their suffer
Iings as much as possible.
