Reply Of Mr.. Carter to Mr.. TenRant Of
WhatCOm.

DELIVERED IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTA-
TIvEs, JAN. 3lsT, 1859.
Mr.. SPEAKER:-I have been confined to
my room for day or two, and do not now
feel well enough to reply at length to the
criticism of the member from Whatcom on
the remarks which made few days ago
on this floor His remarks are as unex-
pected as they are out of time at this stage
of the proceedings. He goes on to say
that my statements in reference to the ad-
ministration taking sides with Gen. Wool
in the early part of its labors, are not well
founded. That it did favor the policy Of
Gen. Wool, is too well known to members
to make it necessary to say any thing fur
ther in the premises
Lest his remarks should place me in
false position, will pass briefly over bis
statements. He says that at is not the
duty of the President to recommend to
Congress the redemption Of our war scrip"
II it is not the duty of the President so to
do, whose duty is itY The President was
elected by the people Of oil the States to
represent all parts Of the confederacy. And
of all the people who come Immediately
under his charge, the people of the terri
tories are foremost They have no vote in
the Senate or House of Representatives,
and of course they should be cared for by.
the Executive. The people here are under
going territorial pupilage preparatory to
going into the Union, and they may be
regarded the children Of the President and
Of course directly under bis care. He
therefore should look out for their interests,
and see that they get what is justly due
them from the national treasury. 1t is
true, as the gentleman says, l voted for the
resolution indorsng the administration.
But in so doing, this house will remember
stated did not indorse its Kansas policy.
The local questions connected with Kansas
does not effect our territory; and it there
fore should not prejudice us against the
general policy of the national government.
l wish it understood that l belong to
that class Of citizens who are frank enough
to point out an error whenever it OCCURS in
the actions of our public men. care not
to what party he may belong, whenever he
commits an error l am willing to point it
out. know there are many who have q
false delicacy in these things, especially il
it relates to those leading men under whom
they may be acting.

The Semapario has an article on the coI
lision with the United States, announcing
that "tbe Republic is ready for war if war
is to come" 1t says:
ave are resolved to maintain our riobtV
with all the tenOcity their justice authorizes
We shall stand firmly together without
being appalled, by consequences, KEEPING
ever in sight our outraged national dignity
We do not hesitate to say that this war
when once it shall have begun, will nm.
doubtedly affect the security of our neigh.
boring States, and that to preserve their
integrity and tranquility, they must not ad.
nit into their political schemes O sentiment
of entire Indifference TO the attack made
upon the Republic of Paraguay"
That the government of Lopez is ex.
tremely anxious to recover the lost relations
of friendship with neighboring States ia
otherwise demonstrated. tits officially an
nounced that it is not the intention Of thu
government to discontinue its steam lines
to Buenos Ayres, as had been previously
stated Much feeling is also said to exist
in favor Of obtaining resident Brazilian
minister at Asuncion, as a guarantee of fu-
ture friendly relations with the empire.

SMALL BUsINEss.-In consequence of the
contract existing between the post Office
department and the Pacific Null Steamship
company by which they (thc company is
simply obligated to deliver us two mails q
month, instead of every tUO 'oeeks, as the
contract should have read, our community
generally look with the intensest anxiety
for the arrival of the states steamer about
the time she is supposed to be due, which
should be at intervals Of about fifteen or
sixteen days. When delayed beyond this
time, as was the case this week, the period
having been prolonged over fire days, our
anxiety rises to fever heat. Aware Of
this fact, some graceless scamps,-we might
almost say scoundrels-who are in the habit
of converting night into day, and make
midnight hideous with their profanations
and carousals-took it into their heads, to
Gre the gun lying on the end of Giddings'
wharf, at about TWO o'clock in the morning,
with design to "sell" our citizens, by de-
ceiving them in the hope of the steamers
arrival. As might nationally be expected,
the "sell" was general, and the town was
soon alive-all hurrying for the express OIL
post Office, only to become aware of the
fact that a triek-a practical joke-had
been played upon them. Surly and lima
tured we returned to our slumbers, swearing
silent vengeance against the perpetratorI
of these deceptiOns, our only comfort being
in the knowledge that others had beer
equally sold with ourselves.
Although We speak in a light strain o.
the coke" played upon us, at this time
having once more regained our equa6imity
yet we must say that such things are at al
times highly reprehensible, and a stoE
should be put to them at once. As Law
will not reach these little jokers," we sug
gest the prOpriety of applying the "Lyncl
CODE" by which means our citizens cal
adopt whatever punishment they may SCI
ct. Therefore let evil-doers look out.

APannIar Annointment.

Mr.. Wesley b. GosNELr, one Of the
pioneers Of Washington Territory, and
formerly sub-Indian agent, has been ap-
pointed local agent of the various bands
of Indians who were parties to the treaty
of Medicine creek, concluded some four
years ago.
In the appointment Of Mr.. GosnelI to
the position stated, the government has
procured the services Of n young man every
way worthy Of the appointment, being up
right and honest, competent and faithful.
The lively and constant interest which he
takes and has ever exhibited to promote
the welfare of the Indians under his
charge--his wellknown knowledge of their
character and their various wants-the
decided manner in which be ever advocates
their rights, and the justness Of his dealings
with them on all occasions, are but few
of the qualifications which eminently re-
commend him for the position he now holds
"a position which will honor him no more
than be is calculated to adorn the place to
which he has been appointed. The cheer
fulncss with which be is obeyed by the In-
dians-the respect in which be is held by
them, and the influence which he has OBJ
tained over them-are evidences Of his fair
dealings with them while holding citizen
position amongst us. The appointment
gives general satisfaction to men Of both
parties. ~

FLYING MIsT.-A beautifully modelled
schooner-rigged scow cf this name, has Just
been completed for Mr.. S. D. Williams, Of
this place, and took her departure from
hence for Victoria on Monday last. She
is of about ninety tons measurement, and
specially adapted for the carrying of live
stock and freight. She is to run regularly
between this place and Victoria, or else
where when her services may be required.
We hope she may prove profitable in
vestment to her owner.
, 1859-02-11

OPPosrrIoN LNE.-From and after the
9th day Of March next, the company Of
which c. K. Garrison & Co. are agents, in
San Francisco, win place the steamers ORR
Eaba, Uncle Sam. Sierra Nevada and
Cortez, on the route from San Francisco to
Panama, and the Northern. Light, North
Star and Ariel, on the Atlantic, to run
regularly between those points in oppo-
sitiOn to the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
paDy.
We hope the opposition may meet with
much success, and receive the patronage
and support, not only Of the people of Cal
fornias but also Of the Atlantic states
California has severely felt the effects Of
this monstrous monopoly, and it is her
duty, now that q remedy is within her
reach, to so apply it as to effect a radical
cure. II the P. NJ. S. S. company cannot
be entirely driven of, which we suppose is
doubtful, we look forward with hope 10 the
time when it shall become necessary for the
directors Of that company to employ men
in whom some of the ingredients of a gen
tleman may be discovered in whom par
tides Of the spirit of accommodation has
entered. Success, say we, to the opposi-
ton.

JoHN A. TENANT. Secretary.
Ii. ]. G. MAXON,

CHANGED HANDs.-Olympia wharf, for.
merly owned by Edward Giddings, has
been purchased by the owners Of the mail
steamer Constitution. 1t is to be hoped
that the purchasers will make some repairs
which are essentially necessary for the pro-
lection Of property. Stringers should be
placed on the sides, so that animals cannot
back over it. Messrs. Mitchell and Stew
art lost valuable animal some time since
for the want of it.
, 1859-02-11

WALLA-wAILA.-By private letter from
A. J. Cain, Indian agent for the Columbia
river district, we learn that permanent
population is rapidly pouring into the Wal
la-walla country. He states that Walla-
walla county will pole large vote at the
next general election, and that on politics
she is all righ.
Mr.. Cain was on his way to that section
of country, which in. future will be his
head quarters.

ABOaEss OF How. |. l. SrrvESs-w,

ABDREss OF Hon. |. l. SrEvENs-We
are under many obligations to the above
gentleman for a copy Of his very able ad-
dress On the Northwest, delivered at New
York, on the ID December, before the
American Biographical and Statistical
Society.
The address opens with brief history Of
the discovery Of these our northern posses
sions, its hrst occupation by the missiona-
Fies and the Hudson Bay Company, and
its subsequent settlement by the Ameri-
cans; after which he dwells at considerable
length upon the geographical history Of the
country. its manifold resources, advantages
etc His description Of the Sound and ad-
jacent country is true to the letter, while
the scope Of country on the east side Of the
mountains-embracing by far the largest
and most desirable portions Of our territory
I'VE doubt not is equally as well and
truthfully described.
After dwelling at some length upon the
meteOrOlOgy Of the country, which plainly
shows that the northwest possesses one Of
the finest, mildest, and least changeable
climates in the United States, our delegate
, closes with q somewhat lengthy discussion
Of the Importance Of Pacific railroad,
the route best adapted therefor, &c. 1t is
needless 10 state that the ronte which he
advocates is that from St. Paul, in Mime
sofa Territory, to Seattle, in Washington
Territory. Nor does he do so without
good reasons. BY a tabular statement
contained in tho work before us, be cOnclu-
Hively shows that the distance from point
10 point on this route is less in its connec-
tons with other places, such as Portland,
Maine Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Baltimore. Washington, aud New Orleans,
BY from III to $50 miles, than are the
same places ria St. Louis and Benicia, in
California. A consideration which surely
should not be lost sight Of in the cOnstruc-
ton Of that all-important work.
II any man is deserving of praise and
commedatiOn for continued exertions and
endeavors to bring not only our own terri
tory bnt the entire coast into prominent
notice before the world, that man is GER
tainly Isaac /. STEVENS. He has spared
neither labor nor expense to accomplish his
purpose Tabular statements as are con
tanned in tho work We speak Of, are not
thyo'On together promiscuously, they are
the products Of much research and great
labor. Nor are works Of this character
printed without having to be paid for. In
thus gratuitously labOring for the common
good, and drawing upon his private re-
sources. we hope all will be able to perceive
that every interest Of our territory is near
and dear to him. Whatever good his ad-
dress may be productive Of-whether it be
much or little-one thing must be appa-
rent to all, and it is this-thath he has done
his duty, wholly and unquaIifedly.
, 1859-02-11

D9-By a letter from our faithful aud
working delegate in Congress, Isaac l,
STEVENS, we learn that the order of Gener.
al HARSEY, opening the interior of our
Territory to settlement, will be approved
by the President and all the Departments
Thus 1t will be seen that the General can
give satisfaction to all but the editor of the
Paget SQUAD Herald and its in cog. Scrib
blers.

Mr. EDrTpR:-Before bidding adieu to
you, and thetown of Olympia, in which |
have spent some very pleasant hours during
the session Of the Legislature, beg leave
to submit the following report of a speech
made by one of the hifalutin" members
of the House, on recent occasion, which,
if not substantially correct, and "a true
copy" comes about as near being so as one
at least which have listened to, and after
wards "seed in print" This is supposed
to be the dying effect of the gentleman
who " aops his ears" and makes the Ameri-
can Eagle "squack."
The Great Annihilator,
Half ass, half alligator,
Hath made an o6aI speech
when l came up to this siace,
then wore Stevens face
And thought the pures to teach,
In the way their fathers trod--
To revere their country's sod
And ev'ry thing then lawful
So uewd my field all round;
Saw indeed twas stumpy ground"
"ItsH you IL tods ofdl."
"There were anti.Stevens men,
There were BaTnbuIners, and then
True blues, bObOlitioH-
Such mixture OF parties
I'll tell you what, my hearties,
Twas a sad condition"
Now I've Initiated blues,
Kick'd the dust from of my shoes
Set me down for what am.
To some party I'm of use;
Sure / hare more brains than goose:
Consider me clam.
Now I've routed horse and foot,
Ev'ry thing is black as SCOT,
Al black republicans.
For such services as these
Give me fat office, please,
The blues will give GTOgGas,
Big as q hogshead, the pill,
Swallow it against your will,
Must swallow it, or burst!"-
In my day I've swallowed whales,
CUPID them down except the taas,
And many more burst /"
Here the speaker unfortunately tainted away and
the balance of his written speech was lost.
LUMTEH.
