NORTHERN INDIANs.-We learn from Mr.
D. WALLACE, who came passenger on tb'
JHlia last week, that on Thursday, It'll
inst, three canoes Of Northern Indians land
ed at DuDginess, near the lighthouse, where
they pitched their tents. They were OBJ
served by some of our Indians, who at frs
supposed them to be white men, but soor
discovering them to be their inVeterate and
deadly foe the Northern Indians = al
once proceeded to the work Of extermins
tion. They succeeded in killing four and
putting the balance to fight, who took to
the woods Their canoes were broken up,
and escape by water rendered impossible
At last accounts q number Of whites and
Indians had gone in pursuit.

RUFUS CHoATE-Rufus Choate died Of
Halifax on Tuesday, July 18th, a few
months less than so years old. The news
Of bis death has excited feeling Of pro-
found regret wherever the intelligence has

attained wider or more substantial fame
as an able and specSssful advocate, and biz
death will be deplored BY all, and especial

S@-Au eruption Of Mt. Hood was wit,
messed by the aid of glasses from Portland
on Friday last. Immense clouds Of aSbe,
filed the air, through which, at tiu,,
flashes of fire were perceptible. Terrible
land slides were also frequently SEEN. and
with the snow which has been melted awav
from the side on which the eruption took
place, the appearance of its summit is en-.

SAN JUAN.-There is nothing later from
this scene of all-absorbing interest The
English had not attempted to land troops,
nor is it likely they ever will. Should they,
however, conclude to enter upon so hazard
GUS a step, they will find Col CASEY, and
the officers and troops under his command,
ready to give them a most cordial and
warm military reception. The military
force now on the Island, consists Of Alb
regulars, and As volunteers, who have
formed themselves into company, Of which
H. r. CROSBY, Esq, the civil magistrate
for the Island, is captain. Besides this
force to oppose landing, eight 80 poun-
ders, one field piece, and a number of how
itzcrs have been placed in battery at points
where they have perfect command of the
harbor, so far as guns Of this calibre can
do SO. The most perfect good feeling exists
between the officers Of the Tribune man
of-war, now lying in that harbor, and our
officers of the army. The latter were en-
tertained on board the Tribune, by its off.
GERS, some time during the past week. The
most amicable feeling prevailed. Captain
PRovosT and Mr.. CAMPBELL, the British
and American Commissioners, were both
present. Surely, this does not look much
like war, and our prediction is, the whole
affair will soon blow over, and San Juan
Island be admitted as justly belonging to
the United States.

AcADEMY.-The Rev. G. W. SLOAN is
about to open an institute Of learning Of
the above character, in the town Of Stella.
COON. We have heard this gentleman
highly extolled as one emminently qualified
to impurt knowledge, and it should be q
matter Of pride with the people Of PieA1c
county to see that the contemplated insti,
tute be amply sustained. The popslation
and wealth Of the county fully warrant the
undertaking. There is nothing which tend,
more to build up place than easy facilities
for educating the youth. 1t is a considera
tion to which parents attach great impor
tance; to those, at least, who have that re
gard for their offspring which alone would
entitle them to the appellation Of "gooi
citizens" Such Os are not octuated by q
desire to promote the good Of their chill
dren-foremost among which is a prOpel
education-are not very desirable acqui
Sition to any community-no hOtO.

AN Extensive CoAsT.-Aceording to the govern.
ment survey, the extent Of the front Of Pacific
coast possessions is total-2ss miles The frontage
OF California Is S65 miles Oregon, 285 and Wash
ington Territory, l,7Ss.-StatsSmdn.
Yes, strange but true it is, that whilst
our Territory embraces nearly twO-thirds
Of the entire front of the Pacific coast, or
six hundred miles more than California and
Oregon combined, we have not been favored
with One-tenth the facilities for protecting
it. On the Atlantic seaboard, where there
exists population which would render the
landing Of foreign foe moral imposibili
ty, immense appropriations are annually
made for strengthening Notifications yes
sells Of war seem ever ready to protect life,
when there is not the least danger of los
ing it revenue vessels ply constantly hith-
er and thither, and difficult indeed would
it be, both from their vigilance and num-
bers, to escape the "lynx-eye" Of these
fast-sworn enemies of the Smuggler. But
here, where our government has an unset
tied boundary to contend for, a coast oi
] ,TSS miles to guard against the introduc-
tion Of foreign merchandise, and our lives
to defend against q merciless savage foe,
our government sees 6t and proper to do
all this through the revenue cutter Jsfev-
son Daris-a sailing vessel, subject to the
winds and tides. If those at headquarters,
on whom devolves the collection of the
revenue, are Indifferent as to the success
which attends the discharge Of their duties,
lcs have no reason to complain il govern.
ment views with indifference the respect
which is paid to her flag, her laws, and the
safety Of her domain, tce can only deplore
her weakness in common with our citizens
throughout the Union, all Of whom must
feel themselves equally humilated with our,
selves. But when it comes TO q question
Of personal safety, then have we a right to
dsmaHd protection from that government

FIRE An alarm Of fire was given on
Sunday evening last, about 4 O'Clock, orig
mating from q dense smoke which was seen
issuing from under the house in the rear Of
the Washington Hotel, and formerly occu-
pied byJ. B. Dickerson as a wagon making
establishment. On examination it was
found that the entire sidewalk, which is
constructed Of wood, was on fire, having
probably caught from cigar or lighted
match dropped in some sbavings lying close
by and uAder it. By its early discovery
and the timely application Of dozen buck
cts Of water, the flames were soSn extin-
guished. Had the FIRE occurred late in the
evening, or been discovered q few minutes
later, the combined exertions Of the people
of Olympia, with all the appliances at their
command, could net have saved from des-
truction the entire block Of buildings ex-
tending from Second to Third Streets, and,
as all know, it is far more than probable it
would have continued its ravages until
reaching Fourth street, which embraces the
greater part Of the business portion of our
city, aud would have proved utter rnin to
all embraced within that limit As usual,
there was no other topic upon which our
citizens seemed capable Of convrrsing, fol
as much as too minutes after the occurrence
of the above, than the great want of gOod
Ere engine, which majority contsnded
should be Of the first class. But, VIC are
sorry to say, that whilst we are Of opinion
that second, or even third class engine
might be Of inealculablc value to our city
nearly oil its citizens have again falleI
back into apparent Indifference, and onct
more seem to think none at all is goot
enough. Thus will we go on until W,
shall once have been burnt out, and then
when We are least able to contribute, W,
will go to work in earnest, and procure al
engine.

"SIx CHURCHEs."-The SteilacOom Her.
aid says that "Six churches arc now in con.
temptation" of erection at that place. Well,
although unwillingly, we must soncede the
palm Of great "contemplations" to the peo.
pie of that Contemplated" city. We must
confess, and to her credit, that Pierce coun-
ty is the only county in the Territory, hav.
ing court house, in which is dealt out q
constant stream Of justice to sinners against
the laws, and also the only jail in which the
laws offenders can be incarcerated. 'Tis
well, therefore, that proper facilities should
be kept in ristO whereby sinners may also
obtain the means of reform.
As we should not like to be entirely
eclipsed by the people of SteilacoOm in
their ''contemplations" Of gigantic magni.
tude, we would inform our readers in that
county, that tee, also, have in ''contempla.
tiOn" a church Of immense proportions,
which at once sinks their $2IOO place Of
worship into utter insigniicance. 1t is the
Contemplated" Presbyterian church for
this place, a plan Of which has been drawn
by Mr.. A. A. BENNETT, and locks most
beautiful on paper. Its estimated cost is
but $40, 900; but with Slight" alterations,
and view to comfort" it can be, and,
when built, will likely cost $40, 900. So
we are informed by the architect. Of
course we do not doubt it will be construct
ed soon, all having the privilege of sub
scribing-tberaly if they choose

VIsToRs.-By the arrival of the North
srnsr, We again had the pleasure Of visit
from Col. Fay, postal agent for the Pacific
coast, and Mr.. 0'MEARA, formerly editor oI
the Portland STANDARD, both in the enjoy.
noent Of good health.
Although Col. Fay has large district
under his supervision, we venture to assert
that if any man is competent to keep
things straight ana in working order, that
man is our present postal Ogent His visit
here was one of inspection, q duty devolv.
ing on him by virtue of bis Office. We nn.
derstand he will recommend the establish.
ment Of post efice on San Juan Island
forthwith.
Mr.. O'MMEARA looks perfectly refreshed
by short relaxation from editorial duties
and has the appearance Of one who could
again enter the field successfully against q
political enemy, with some considerable
certainty of coming out first and best
They both left on Tuesday last for Port
land.
Mr.. J. F. DAMON, travelling correspond
ent Of the Victoria Gazetls, also paid US 9
flying visit by the steamer Julia. He is an
intelligent and agreeable gentleman, whom
we should much desire TO have locate in our
midst. As he has expressed himself to this
effect, we can only say-WelcOme, thee, to
Olympia. He returned again to Victoria
