fess thepeople Of Clarke county have some
reason for thinking there is something wrong,
somewhere. Still there is nothing wrong
nothing but what Governor GHoLsoN or
Judge McFADDEN are perfectly willing
should be known; nor yet is there anything
connected with the subject but what the peo-
pie have a right to know We are well
satisfied that the correspondence asked for
by our friend will be cheerfully granted us
In fact it was once promised by the Cover
nor; but on more mature reflection, he
thought proper to withhold its publication
at that time. The notification of Judge
McFADDEN to the Governor, informing him
of the receipt of the capitol and penitentiary
funds, we obtained from the Judge previous
to his leaving town. We also called upon
the Governor for the purpose of obtaining
his correspondence in the premises, but found
him prostrated by sickness, and in such con-
dition that we thought it improper to men
tion the subject As soon as he shall have
recovered sufficiently to attend to the duties
Of his Office, we promise our "Clarke county"
friend and its citizens to obtain the same,
and publish it for their especial benefit and
Information. The other query of our friend
as to the Governors refusing to give bond,
and the rumor that "the Judge has sent the
money back to Washington" is answered
elsewhere.
Hoping our readers in Clarke county will
patiently "bide their time" until we shall be
enabled to publish the official correspond
ence, we dismiss the subject for the present

that the pententiary should be erected i'm

Yours, truly,
CLARKE County


The above communication, which we re-
ceiyed by last Oregon mail from a much re.
spected friend in Clarke county, shows the
anxiety and interest everywhere felt by our
citizens concerning the early commencement
and rapid completion Of the peniteniiary for
this Territory. We can confidently assure
our correspondent, as also the citizens Of
Clarke county in general, that there is not a
man, woman, OF child in Thurston county
objects to having the Penitentiary built at
Vancouver On the contrary, it is their ar
dent wish that it be commenced and com
pleted al ono, and thus forever bar the pos
sibiIiiy Of making It a trading capital in fu-
ture. The Penitentiary was located at Van
couyer BY the Territorial Legislature years
ago; a reference to the journals Of that sos
sion will show that the Thurston county del
egation voted unanimously on the question
TO 50 loeats it, and we can further assert,
from an acquaintance with the views and
opinions Of oar people in the premises, that
the votes, thus cast, met with their entire
appreciation and endorsement. We can also
assert, knOiOiaglys, that they have not in the
least changed their minds to the present
time. Our correspondent is therefore doing
US wrong in thus insinuating his suspicious
against the people Of this county, by the in
quiry as to whether the "penitentiary is tc
be held back for capital to trade on thi.
coming winter" The inference abroad
would very naturally lead many to believe
that some Of oar Influential citizens" might
have tampered7 with the Governor, ant
prevailed on him TO decline giving bond fol
the present, when the very reverse of thi
Is the exact state Of the case.
We had hoped that what we have hereto
fore said on this subject would have fully ex
planned the present situation of things a
connected with the peuitentiary. But i
seems it has not, and as we are called upol
again to travel over the same ground" WI
will do so in as brief a manner as possible
trusting that this time We shall be fully un
derstood, as also be able to remove the ''sus
pieiOns" which some appear to entertain
against the people Of Thurston county.
We are willing to concede that our cor
respondent has some reasons for his supcions
He is correct in saying our delegate ha!
had the title approved, that the money fo
the construction Of the pententiary has beer
received by Judge McFADDEN, but that h

CONGRESSIONAL.

No business of note has been done in the
Senate.
In the House, on Thursday, the 18th,
%, 900 copies of Hickman's report on the
Presidents protest were ordered printed.
The Pacific Telegraph bill was consider
ed; when Mr.. Colfax explained the nature
of the amendpent, which reduced the sub
sidy to $40, 900, and messages TO So. II
the proposing contractors Of the line should
refuse to accept the terms, the Secretary Of
the Treasury to give the contract to the
lowest bidders
Mr.. Stanton, Of Ohio, advocated the
measure, us one Of vital importance.
Mr.. Burnett, Of Kentucky, opposed it.
There was no power under the Constitution
to authorize Government to build telegraph
lines. Owing to monopoly, Government
were prevented letting the contract to the
lowest bidders; by their cutting down, rates
were adopted by the Senate which were
lower than others adopted on this or any
yothcr continent.
i Mr.. ALEU-, of Ohio, spoke in favor of the
measure.
Without taking any action, the House
went into Committee Of the Whole on the
Tariff bill, and, after proHar.ed discus
sion on'lhut measure, adjourned.
THE DEFICIT IN THE NEW YORK POST OFFICE.

Postmaster was about $4,000 more than

this fact, with request for immediate pay
ment, aud satisfactory explanation The
Department had no mode Of detecting this
discrepancy until the quarters accounts
were rendered. Weekly statements arc
made of the deposits with the Sub-Trcus-
urer, and comparison with previous re-
turns showed that they were proportionate-
Iy larger than heretofore, averaging some
$4,000. Mr.. Fowler's bond is for $75,-
