Liberal DoEKTIoN-No evidence Of a
mans generosity can be better established
than in the actual deed and with a feel
ing Of pride we record the liberal donation
Of eve hundred dollars made by Gov. SrE-
VEINS towards cutting out the road over
the Snoqualmie Pass, from Ranger Prairie
to the east side Of the Cascade Mountains
Also. one hundred dollars, for the same
purpose, to be laid out on the pass recent
y viewed BY Messrs PAcKwooD, LoScMER
and KrRLEY. commissioners appointed by
the last legislature.
The latter pass was discovered, we be-
heve, by Mr.. PAcKwoOD, and crosses the
mountains at the head Of the Nisqually.
1t is said to be the lowest, shortest and
best pass through the range, being passa-
BILE at least ten months Of the year, and,
from the representations Of its low ali-
iude, it is qditc probable the entire year.
II is estimated that two thousand dollars
will complete q good wagon road to the
eastern base Of the mountains, beyond
which it is an open country. We would
respectfully suggest to the citizens Of
Thurston county whether it would not
be to their interest 10 subscribe this
amount at this time. This sum, We should
suppose, ought to be readily subscribed.
The merchants and business men Of Olym.
pia should furnish the provisions and out
Ct, and the farmers and laboring class to
perform the work. This, we think, would
equitably divide the amount as between
town and country, and, il some energetic
man, in whom our citizens have confidence,
will only take the thing in hand, we are
certain the road eau be completed before
the next years immigration will require it.
A good road leading to the rich valleys in
the eastern portion Of our Territory, has
long been pet idol" with our people
but, so far, '1oDg talk and no action" has
been the sum total Of the work performed,
much, indeed, TO the deiriment and growth
Of the Territory, but our county more par
ticularly. Our people must now be fully
aware that quite a respectable portion Ol
this years immigration would have found
their way hither, which now will 90 to
Oregon. The Nachess military road, it is
true, was once opened and passed by the
immigration Of 1854; but it is not passable
now. Fallen timber, and other obstruc-
tons, have rendered it useless, and it now
behoeVes our citizens to take some active
steps, and anticipate the Immigration of
next year. But for our dilatory ways, we
should now have had the trains Of Col.
MAY, Of Indiana, and Mr. LANE, formerly
Of Pierce county, now in our midst
Il would be improper to close without
saying that Major TnroS, our efficient sur
VeyOr general, also has given one hundred
dollars towards the Snoqualmio road

SrEILAcooN-Judging from q perusal Of
the Herald, this place bids fair soon to OBJ
tain q notariety quite unenviable. Week
before last that paper chronicled the high
way robbery, by which young man was
relieved Of $40. The last issue contains a
stabbing affray, indulgcd in by number Of
young men, (asa postime, we suppose in
which F. G. Seaman was stabbed in the
abdomen with knife, by youth named
Geo. Melville. An examination was held
by Justice SHoREY, but not concluded The
wounded man was doing well. Also, an
other robbery upon the highway leading
from Steilacoom to the garrison, where a
young man named Robert Williams vas
attacked by a couple Of men secreted in
the bush, one Of whom presented pistol
at him and demanded his "loose change"
Having $l35 with him he promptly paid
over. This, with an editorial notice that
"during the week there have been several
fights in town." makes up respectable
criminal calender for fortnight.
From tho above recorded facts, We rec
omend to the favorable consideration" ol
the board of foreign MISSIONS" the county
Of Pierce as large field FOR usefulness and
their immediate attention. We know Of
no community which requires the presence
of their good counsel aud benign influence
more than that county. But the whole
mystery is explained to US, when we reflect
that the county is thoroughly and irretrieR
ably Republican, That explains all-ct
course.

loud report, such as large cannon near
by. / was in the field at the time, and
went to the house where Mr.. Krise was,
who said that it shook the honse. This
morning / went around the neighborhood,
and found that everybody heard the strange
report. Lastly, called on Col. Simmons,
who said that it was a meteor; that TWO
Indians in bis employ saw it fly and burst.
They came to his house very much alarm
ed. The meteor burst northwest Of this
place; and as il came from an easterly d.
rection, no doubt it was seen by somebody
in your vicinity"
Mr.. J!C. PATTON, residing upon the
Squaxon reservation, in Sawamish county,
Informed us few days after the appear
ance Of this singular visitor, that he dis
tincily heard the report aad plainly saw in
the heavens what appeared to him a
ball Of FIRE. But as a general thing, be-
ing an unbeliever in these philosophical
phenomino, from our inability to reconcile
them with any of the established laws oI
nature, and the frequency with which they
are pronounced humbugs, we attached but
little Importance to it at the time. We
remember, not long since, to have seen a
meteoric body suddenly erPtoded through
the journals, which was said to have fallen
to the earth somewhere in the State Of
New York, the account going into a mi
mute detail Of the fearful injury done, the
terrible report, &c. But all at once it was
discovered that an editor had simply writ

ceeded to admiration. We therefore give
the above upon authority of Mr.. Walter.

will part with her as with an old friend.
