A SHERIFF DRowNED-Sheriff jackson,
of Siskiyou county, was drowned off this
port yesterday, under circumstances which
make it probable that he ives thrown over
board. About two years ago man NAM
ed John Hurley murdered q man named
MoiIitt, near Dowpevilleb aud escaped.
There was three thousand dollars offered
for his detection-one by the state, one
by the county, and one by the Free Masons,
of which fraternity the murdered man was
a member. About six months since sheriff
jackson learned that Hurley was in Ore
gon, and Immediately left Yreka in pursuit
Of him. After searching about the coun-
try for months, he finally came upon him at
the Dalles, he having been driven into the
settlements by the hostile Indians A few
days ago the sheriff and his prisoner en-
barked on the schooner J. II. Whiting, at
Columbia river, for this port. The vessel
brought deck load of lumber, which was
even with the top of her bulwarks. Capt.
Blair says that yesterday when withiIr'ten
miles of this port, sheriff Jackson and Hur-
ley were talking together near the side Of
the vessel, the crew at work in another
part, and he and his mate were taking the
sun-when suddenly hearing q splash in
the water, he turned around and found that
the sheriff was overheard. The boat was
lowered as quick as possible, but the un-
fortunate man sunk before assistance could
reach him. He had on heavy clothing,
and about two hundred dollars in his pock-
cts. Nobody saw the sheriff fall overheard
and it is therefore thought that Hurley
may have thrown him over. Hurley was
Immediately secured, and when the vessel
arrived here last evening, Capt. Folsom
and officer Douglass went aboard and
brought him to the Station House When
coming up, he said the sheriff had treated
him well during the passage. Hurley is a
good-sized, robust man, with black hair
and whiskcrs A large pockct-knife and a
small file were found upon him. San

WRrcK OF THE STEAMER PORTIAND!-
Captain Jameson and one Hand tosi'-
After we had gone to press yesterday, we
learned the sad news of the loss of this steam
er, with her Captain and one man. This boat
on Tuesday evening had arrived at the
Linn City warehouse and discharged her
cargo, and was returning to Canemah.
Just as she passed out Of the basin her til
Ter rope broke, which made her unmanage-
able She dropped back into the basin,
but the strong force of water carried her
over the side. The Captain, as she was
going over, leaped into the basin, but
the current took him over. The fireman,
as he attempted to leap, was thrown up by
the upheaving of the boat and struck nat
upon the water, and was also carried over
The third and only remaining man on
board, jumped over and succeeded in reach
ing sawlog which was fast, and was res
cued from this by means Of rope. The
boat passed over the falls, broke in pieces
and became q total loss.-OrcgoH Stan

SERIOUS ACCIDENT FROM Rotten PILEs-
The Pier No /, which projects into the
Bay from Davis street wharf, between Mar
ket and Mission streets, San Francisco,
and is occupied by Mr.. G.. j. Meiggs, TO
hold lumber, caved in to about the extent
of about forty feet, and precipi;ated q
large quantity of lumber and four men, in
to the water. All the men, however, eS
capped without serious damage, save one
Mr. Phillips, of Seattle, Puget Sound
who had his leg broken. Capt. Boyd, of
the schooner Merchantmen, had a very
narrow escape. He was sitting on the
wharf when it gave way, and was plunged
into the water with the lumber after him !;
but strange TO say, he was not injured.
As he rose to the surface, he found that
the lumber had fallen so as to form an arch
all around him so he Immediately diyed
down and swan clear of the wreck, when
he was rescued. The piles that broke here
were only two years old; they we're of the
Humboldt white fir wood. We were told
that the Puget Sound yellow fir piles are
far superior to these, and last for five or
six years.. f. Herald.

ANOTHER ENrERPRIsE.-We publish to-
day the proceedings of the board of COM
missioners, authorized by an act of the
late legislative assembly, to construct q
bridge across the western arm Of Budd's
Inlet, at fourth street, town of Olympia.
The board held their first meeting on the
first Monday Of March, and organized by
the election of their ohicers-appointed
committee to draft a plan, aud make an
estimate of the cost of construction Of said
bridge A stated meeting of the commits
sioners will be held on Monday next, the
9th instant, at which time, we learn, the
committee will make their report-they
having fully accomplished thcir. labors. We
are requested to say that full meeting OF
the board is desired, as the adoption of a
plan will undoubtedly occupy the attention
of the meeting. We are happy to Wear
that the costs attending this improvement
will fall much short of what was anticipa-
ted. The distance across the bay by act
ual measurement, is less than three-eighths
of mile, and the commissioners have well
grounded hopes, that they will be able
early to commence on this work, of such
vital advantage to the town of Olympia
and to the country adjacent, We hope to
lay before our readers the report of the
committee in an early issue, when we shall
notice the advantages to result from the
completion Of this enterprise. -'

Except in the much greater size oil the

the tribes In the settlements being almost
exclusively fish hdians-the one having
very large bands and herds-most oil the
others having none at all-the one beng
at home on his horse, and the other IN his
cauoe-the other provisions with the lndI-
ans of the interior were the same as those
of the treaties Of the Indians of the Sound &.
The same provision was made with regard
to instruction in learning, in agriculture
and the arts, which was to continue for
twenty years, without charge upon their
annutics their annuities were, in Ike
manner, to continue for twenty years, and
to be expended in similar beneficial objects.
From DOWN SouND.-We learn from Mr..
CHAs. PHILLIPS, of Island county, that
serious apprehcnsions are felt by the citi-
zcns Of Bclliugham Bay and Whidby'S
Island, of another hostile visit from the
Northern Indians to prepare for and
meet which event, they are again fortifying
those points with block houses What
grounds there may be for such fears, we
are unable to say. After the severe drob-
Jipr which these tribes received at the
hands of the Massachusetts,, during the lat
ter part Of last November, We should sup
pose they would now be perfectly content
10 remain at home among such as have
proved TO them better friends. Yet we
also know that retaliation and rSRnge are
predominant traits which characterize the
Indian. BE all these things, however, as
they may, there are other sufficient and
good reasons why substantial and power
full government war steamer should be
kept constantly in the waters of the Sound,
for the protection Of the citizens residing
on its shores and vicinity. BY doing this,
the government would be more nearly ac-
complishing its objects, at least so far as
our northern foes are concerned, than by
concentrating regiment of infantry within
our Territory.

The Louisiana Penite ntiary.

The cotton factory belonging to the
Penitentiary was burned I'd June last, by
which two.thirds Of the convicts were left
without employment and " a fearful looking
for " oftaxes to support them was on all
tax payers.
Gov. Wickliffe was strongly importuned
to convene the Legislature, but possessing
much Of the rim Of young America, he de-
termined to take his own counsels and
proceed at once TO rebuild and re.plenish
the entire establishment. Thoug gh not
partial to the Governors political views,
we must confess IS we were passing
through the new building day or two
since, and witnessed the first moving of the
new and splendid machinery, we admired
! bis energy and determination, and thought
every tax payer in the State would do the
same.
We were told that the two engines, the
four boilers, doctor, etc., which then were
at work finely, were lying the two weeks
previous on the bank of tho river. We
are indebted to Major Hart, one Of the
agents, for the following statement, made
at our request: .......
The new factory building is 2e6 fee,
long, 43 feet wide, stories. Engine
house and dressing room, 81 feet long. "A
feet wide, 2 stories. Pickry SIS feet long,
81 feet wide, stories. Cotton store
house $50 feet long, 25 feet wide, story.
Stable and granary 100 feet long, 80 feet
wide, stories. Wash house and female
prison 70 feet long, 80 wide, 3 stories.
This latter building is entirely discon.
nected with the others, and we learn iha,
hereafter the Governor intends the females
shall occupy it, day and night, thus pre-
venting any intercourse whatever, and re.
. moving what has been heretofore grea1
annoyance. There are now in the factor,
one hundred looms and fifty cards with al
the spinning and other machinery necessa
ry to supply them. The factory as nov
arranged.is capable Of turning out more
than double the work Of the old, and the
buildings are capacitated to hold one
hundred more looms and machinery ne
cessary to work the same, the engines ant
shafiing being sufficient to drive any addi
tional machinery that could be placed il
the building.
There are four double.Aued boilers
thirty feet long, fory.two inches in diamei
er, two engines, eighteen inch cylinders
with five feet stroke, connected TO ont
shaft at right angles, equal to one hundred
horse power. To the shaft 10 attached q
