GLORIOUS NEWS FOR WASHINGTON TERRITORY
Gov. Stevens returned from the BIuskfOOt COuntl
LIttle Bandy-Lcggcd "Rough and Ready
In the hcldII
NO TINE FOR SWAPPING KNIVES.

We this week surrender almost our entire
editorial columns, to give place to legislative
proceedings, and accounts, which we copy
from the Oregon Times and Standard, with
regard to the safe arrival of Gov. STEVENS,
and party, Immediately on the other side of
the Cascade mountains. The news here has
infused new life and energy into the hearts
and spirits Of ALL
We are unable to say, as yet, whether it
is, or is not the intention of Gov. STEVENS
to make his way at Onoe, into this portion Of
the territory. Our confident belief, howcv-
er, is, that on which ever side of the noun
tains he may choose to pitch his tent, that
he will "take of his coat and roll up his
sleeves" and if the Indians do not think the
water is deep, just let them pitch in"
, 1856-01-04

trve an impartial and unprejudiced opinion.
But, sir, before | conclude, let me pay
passing tribute to your but too flattering
notice of my first letter. You attribute
my humble efforts to remove the scales
of bigotry from your Argus eyes, to "one
of the Sisters Of Charity in the French
prairie" How singular indeed, Mr.. Ad-
ans, that whenever you attempt to write
upon Catholic subject, you, either thro'
ignorance or malice fall into numerous er-
rors. Why, sir, there is not Sister Of
Charity in Oregon; and must say, that if
the information which you dole out to your
readers, on every other universal" sub
ject, is not more correct, l pity their igno-
rance, and would recommend you to lay
aside the pen for the plow-share. In your
last number you also lay down rules for the
guidance Of your correspondents, and as it
is poor rule that won't work two ways, !
as one Of the number so admonished, would
recommend to your consideration the fol-
lowing hints, to be used whenever you are
shout to concoct an editorial, and hope my
advice will not come amiss to so youthful a
journalist.
My parting advice to you, Mr.. Adams,
is, never attempt to write upon subject
with which you arc not thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT Never condemn before you are quail
i6ed to Judge. Never attempt to build up
q character for yourself, upon the ruin
which you would make Of Onother's. by ca
lumniation and falsehood. This advice, sir,
l give you, in all the sincerity, not of a
" Sister," but of q Brother" of Charity,
and still remain,
Yours, &c,
A CATHOLIC CITIZEN.

road from Bruceport on Shoalwater bay to

Mr.. Huff moved, that the judiciary COM
mittee be instructed to inquire into the pro.
priety of making it a criminal offence to buy
property and promise to pay down, and
then move it away without paying for it
carried.
Mr.. Cock, introduced the following me-
mortal, which was ordered printed.
To the honorable the senate and house
Of representatives in congress assembled.
Your memorialists, the legislative Assem-.
bly, of the territory Of Washington, would
respectfully represent-that a state Of war
now actually exists between the United
States and the Yakima and other tribes OF
Indians, and in consequence Of the utter in
efficiency Of the officers and soldiers Of the
regular army, to bring the war to speedy
termination would respectfully request your
honorable body to make an appropriation
equal to the anual cost Of the regular army
in this and Oregon territory, and that said
appropriation be at the disposal Of the
Governors Of the two terri tories for the
pay and support Of volunteer forces as your
memoralists verify believe, that the settlers
on this coast are able to protect themselves
with the assistance of such appropriation,
and your memorialists as in duty bound
will ever pray.
Mr.. Cock offered the following resOlu-
tion.
ResOlred-By the Council the House
concurring that we proceed to the election
of public printer, on Saturday the 5th

Nez Pcrces Indian, who it appears made the
following. statement after PcC-Peu-MoXMOX
had been killed.
He stated that he was one of Gov. Ste
vcns' party, and had been sent in by Gov.
Stevens with a message to Pec-Pcu-MoN-
Mox lie ereportcd to Col. Kelley that Gov,
Stevens, with $50 men was on his return,
and within about 60 miles Of Col. Kelley's
camp.
Gov. Stevens messenger was Immediately
mounted and sent to Gov. Stevens, with dis
patches from Col Kelley, informing him of
his position and the general condition of af
fairs, and urging him to join him with all
possible haste and we reasonably conclude
that he is now with the Volunteers.
Capt. Mckay, with his company of Scouts
who were on their way to succour Gov Ste
vcns, heard of the above intelligence at Fort
Henrietta and wrote the foregoing mfOrma-
ton to Capt Rob't Thompson, at the Dalles
Capt. Mckay, with his Scouts, were about
to proceed to Col. Kelley's camp, in conuuc-
ton with Capt. Cornelius Command. Capt
Cornelius, while at Fort Henrietta, succeed
ed in capturing $50 head Of cattle and so
head of horses, and succeeded in bringing
into camp dll the horses and so head of the
cattle.
From the Volunteers, VIC hear nothing
further of their fighting, but await with
much anxiety, the news from the battle
ground.
1t seems somewhat odd that 0lr brave
Volunteers should he hemmed in by thou
sand Indians and short of provisions while
the regulars, some 400 to 500 strong, are
laying snugly ensconscd, and well fed and
clothed at Fort Vancouver This hardly
looks right and it is to be presumed that
Gen. Wool and Maj. Rains know their own
business best. How happens it that Capt.
Strong's company of Washington Volunteers
are,in winter quarters at Vancouver? Is it
because they entered the regular service ?
If so, the Oregon people may well congrat-
ulate themselves that the Volunteers Of this
Territory did not enter the regular service
as they are now likely to chastisc the re-
crcant and blood-thirsty hordes Of savagcs-
and conquer peace.
From all the present indications, Gov.
Curry's foresight and energetic policy in this
war, is likely to be made very apparent, and
highly satisfactory to the people.
