MoNEY CoanNoN.-An Indian, for riding
furiously through the streets, was fined $40
and costs Of suit by Justice BIGELow on
Monday night
Sir Fred WM HAMILTON, for giving un-
licensed rein to his feelings Of destructive
ness, in breaking the windows of Mr.. DuN-
LARS store, was similarly fined. In default
Of payment he was secured in a job of pub.
lie work on the road in day time, and al
night in the block house. Not fancying bis
quarters, he attempted to burn out, but was
fortunately discovered by Mr.. WRIGHT, liv
ing on the opposite side of the street. In 8
few minutes more the block house, territoria
papers, vouchers. &C., would have been pas
salvation. Keeping prisoners therein shoult
be tolerated no longer.

EscAPED.-SMMoNs, confined for the last
four or Eve months in the block house at
this place for the murder Of BULLARD, has
at length made his escape, which lie ac-
complished by burning through plank in
his cell, which gave him egress to the body
of the block house. Having reached this,
he found no difficulty in making his exit
through the door which is formed Of inch
boards, indifferently secured There is no
doubt but what the help of friends from
the outside materially assisted him in effect
ing his escape. 1t is utterly impossible
that he conld have removed the first plank
without the assistance Of lever. This
must have been furnished him by some one
through the crivice once intended for port
hole, now left for the admission of light and
air BY saving the fat and butter Of his
daily food, which he did in the bottom oi
junk bottle, and inserting therein piece
of his shirt ns wick, he thus constructed
dim light for the accomplishment of bis
purpose. He is an ingenious rogue, and
will not be readily found or easily taken
Mr.. BILLINGS, the sheriff of this county,
with q number of specials, started in hasty
pursuit of the fugitive, but, up 10 the pres.
ent time, has not been heard from.
A man named Young, confined in the
same cell with the above for stubbing an In
dian, says Simmons several times threatened
to set the building on fire, and running lis
chances of effecting an escape. He was only
prevented doing so by the interference Of
Young. The latter declined avaling him.
self of the facilities afforded by his compan-
ions labors TO escape, and, in consideration
Of faithfulness, has been let out on his parOlt
of honor. Simmons escaped on Monday
night.

TAG JoURXALs.--By the close Of next
week we hope to have ready for distribution
the journals Of the two houses of the last
Legislature Like the laws Of that session,
they are considerably larger than usual In
former years we have had the laws com
pleted in time TO supply the court at its
March term, and the journals have generally
been ready by the middle or latter part Of
June Being much more voluminous than
common, we are Of opinion we have done
about as well as usual in furnishing the work
| by The middle of August. We remember
one instance where the laws (and the vol
ume was no larger than the present one
were only completed by the opening Of the

DIED.-We are grievsd to learn that
the eldest son Of Mr.. PRoscH, Of the Steil
accom- Herald, died on Wednesday last
after brief illness from brain fever. Thi.
youth, With tie help Of brother q year OF
TIVE his junior. was the only assistance
which Mr. P. had in the weekly issue Of
his Journal To him, therefore, the loss
will be severe and greatly felt. The de-
ceased was noble boy-studious, intelli.
gent, and industrious. Often have we
seen him and his more youthful brother en-
gsged with evident pleasure and greatest
industry nj the case. With the strength
Of mere children, they worked with the
will Of men. Whoever saw them, found
himself at once insensibly attracted towards
them in admiration Of their industry and
excellent behavior. They wge the pride
Of the town Of Stcilacoom, ndAless than a
fathers JOY and a mothers happiness. To
the latter we tender our sincere coincidence
in their painful bereavement. The deceas-
ed was between l3 and IA years of age.

MILITARY RoAD.-Washington Territory
is fortunate in having so able and inhaen'
tial Delegate as Hon. l. 1. Stevens. He
has, during bis two years and q little more
in Congress, obtained for that Territory
more appropriations for useful purposes
than Oregon received in six years. And
lately, he has obtained the passage Of bill
through Congress for the construction Of
new Military road from Fort VancoD7erio
Bellingham Bay, ria Cowlitz, Monticello,
Olympia, Steildcoom and Seattle--ths
whole route being through the most POPu'
lous section of that Territory. This road
will be Of vast advantage to Washington.
Gov. Stevens is a model Delegate, and it is
well that he is in Congress to help our Sen
ator and Representative in the obtainment
Of the War Debt. There are but very few
men on this coast who rank Gov. Stevens
in ability and iuhuence.--JdeksOnvihe Sen
