GoNE EAsr.-Col E. @. FIrzHUGH, Asso-
ciate Justice Of Washington Territory, and
Judge Of the srd Judicial District, left here
on Monday last for Victoria, where be viii

from whom be has now been absent some
eleven years, much the greater part ol
which time has been spent in Washington
Territory, at bis home in Whatcom. TC
those who are in the least familiar with the
Judge; who have enjoyed bis hospitality
and good-cheer, need not be informed Of
his many ennobling traits. A more gen
tlemanly,I afiable and agreeable man il
would be difficult to meet with anywhere,
The fog Of prejudice with which be wal
once looked upon by some, has long since
been lifted, and those who then beheld hin
as an arrogant, overbearing man, are now
his admirers, and End him the modest, for
bearing and religiOusly upright and honesi
man on all occasions. Although making
himself but little pretention to much
knowledge Of legal lore, we have heard
with much pie. sure, high encomiums passed
upon the equity Of his rulings and decis
ions, and the dignity with which he pre-
sides upon the bench. Coming from where
it did--from legS gentlemen who once
hated and despised the Judge-the com
pliment is dOubly enhanced.
As the Judge will remain some time il

would do well to entrust the same will
him. His varied intelligence and practica
business knowledge will render his services
there invaluable. His knowledge Of mat
ters here will enable him to make any ex
plantations that may be required in tht
prosecutions Of claims, etc.
Mr.. WM. M. RANDALL, long employed il
the Registers Office at this place, as clerl
Of the register, also left at the same time
and accompanies the Judge as far as New
York. May they both enjoy a pleasant
passage, and meet with a happy reception
by their friends
Until your return, Judge, your numerous
friends here wish you kind adieu.

FoURrH OF July CELEBRArIoS.-We see
by the last Steilaeoom Herald, as also by
posters received here, that the enterprisng
citizens of that place are making extensive
preparations towards an ertraragant, yet
ftful celebration of our nations natal day
in that thriving and hospitable little city,
in the observance of which, at that place
they respectfully invite ALL to participate
with them. A full programme of the or.
ders of the day has not yet been published
The committee of arrangements, however,
give assurance that it shall be a credta.
BILE affair, and that an abundance of the
good things of life shall await the arri-
val of their guests. As we have heard Of
no intention to celebrate the fourth at this
place, let US meet with our neighbors at
Sleilacoom, and join with them in doing
honors to the day. What say you all, citi-
zens of Olympia?

policy, or upon local issues. These affect
not mans democracy, nor yet as to who
may be our individual choices for next
president or delegate to Congress. OHr
democracy we cannot permit to be measur-
ed by pariiality for men. principles, not
men" has been the motto Of our party for
times past, and such will it continuance to
be. So long as we act upon this axiom,
will we continue 10 be united; so soon as
we cease to keep it in view, we will find
ourselves broken up into factions and
cliques, and shameful defeat will be the re-
ward of desertion from principle.
Let not the taunts Of Republicans, then,
have the effect Of destroying our present
unanimity. Their attempts to show that
this or that candidate has been nisused by
failing to receive the nomination Of our par
ty, is done only to goad Democrats into a
support Of their candidates. All sensible
men will at once perceive their object is to
distract us, and then secure an easy vic
tory for themselves. Let all good Demo
crats at once show the Republican party's
fuglers that their labors to this end is be-
yond accomplishment. We are appa-
renily irreconcilably divided in our pre-
ferences for candidates, until such times as
conventions decide the question for u.s.
After this, Republicans may well stand
aghast at the facility with which we re-
unite in support Of our nominees. The re-
cent struggle for the sherifalty in our pre-
cinct meeting some two weeks since, we
might cite as an instance. The warmth
with which some espoused the causes Of
their preferences, the ardor (amounting to
little short Of bitterness) with which they
pressed the election Of delegates who would
favor the nomination of their favorites,
may have induced the belief this feeling
would be encouraged. But let none be de-
ceived herein. The very result of that eau
Gus has strengthened our party at least thir-
ty votes in this precinct, and those who it
was then asserted sustained a defeat, will
now join heart and hand in defeat of any
men the Republicans may see ct to array
against us. In this they will be further
joined BY every disappointed aspirant for
office before the county convention. If
there is anything soothing in this to our
then let them, like bees, suck
iustenance therefrom.
AS soon as the Republicans shall have
named their men for the sacrifice, we will
institute comparison between their can
iidates and our own.

Presidential Calculations

J
The Republicans are indulging in large
expectations OF success at the next Pres.
dental election. They forget that Their
organization, although strong in New Eng.
land and few OF the Western States, has
bnt slim support in many Of the States,
and no existence whatever in few Of them.
It would be well to look little into The
facts and hgures, and not be too sangnine
of Republican success. The New York
Tribune presents the following calculation
Of the relative prospects Of parties, which
isworth pondering;
l. We shall, with determined and uuited
effort, carry oil the States which Fremont
did, thus giving US ia electoral VoleS TO

LocArED-We learn that the trustees Of
the Puget Sound University, at their meet
ing on Tuesday evening last, have at length
succeeded in locating the same on the point
Of land on the Sound, nearly opposite the
house of L. OFFUTr, about midway between
Olympia and Tumwater. We regard the
location as a very judicious one 1t will
accommodate the educational interests Of
both places alike, whilst if it had been To-
Gated in Swantown, on the east side Of the
bay, it would have suficed only for the
wants of the former place, (who arc not
debarred from participating in its benefits
by the present location and Olympia,
whilst the distance from Tumwater would
have been too great to ensure the atten-
dance of scholars from the latter place
The building spot is very eligible aud
slightly one We further learn that it is the
intention of the trustees to send Rev. B.
@. LIPPINcoTr, Of this place, to the States,
to solicit aid in the erection Of the build
ings. He is to start between this and the
first of September or about that time
The Methodist Board of Missions have
already donated five thousand dollars for
this object, and the Rev. Mr.. L is conf.
dent that he can, in short time, raise FIVE
or six thousand more, in the way of gener-
al contributions. These sums, together
with the amount donated by our citizens,
will make the very handsome total sum Of
fifteen thousand, or more, dollars, to start
on. Success to the enterprise.

B6- A thunder storm, the first we have
seen for over two years, arose very sudden
ly on the evening of Wednesday last, and
has had quite perceptible effect upon the
temperature Of the air. Vivid flashes Of
lightning rent dark and portentious clouds
in the far distant eastern hoGzon, and the
loud rolling Of the thunder, as it rever
berated in a subdued but protracted echo
in the coast range of mountains, sounded
grand yet gloomy as we never heard it be
fore. Thunder and lightning is so uncom
mon here, that it invariably leaves an i'm
preston Of awe on the mind Considerable
rain has fallen since that storm.

B1-our worthy contemporary Of the Reg
istsr Of Port Townsend, in its issue Of the
9Th instant, takes exception TO the terms
in which we alluded to the action Of the
commanding officer at Fort Steilacoom, in
despatching the Massachusetts with a de.
tachment of twenty men, to cruise in the
Sound, and aid in the enforcement of our
laws against the Northern Indians.
We fully agree with the Register, that
this act Of the Colonel commanding, "was
but simple discharge of duty" but we
still hold that the promptness which char
acterized it, 'is commendable, and reflects
the highest creditupon the military"
We are unable to discover in the article
alluded to, any grounds for the concluding
comments Of our friend. We are we'll
aware that the Massachusetts is not at all
adapted to the protection Of our people
against the inrOads of the saVages, and full
lyappreciate the Importance Of the subject
and the necessity which exists that the gov.
ernment should, at once, detail an efficient
war steamer to be kept actively cruising in
the Sound and the neighborhood of the
Straits Of Fuca. This we have repeatedly
urged, and trust that speedy action will be
had in the matter. Meanwhile, however
this service must be be performed by the
Massachusetts, and that it will be promptly
performed when required, we have the best
assurance

SINGULAR CAsE.-We learn from friend
at Vancouver the particulars of q singular
case, which occurred few days ago at the
garrison at that place. A soldier was re-
leased from the guard-house, where he had
been confined several months for desertion
Immediately upon this discharge, he retired
to the rear of the house, where several sol.
diers were employed in cutting wood, and
asked one of them to let him look at his
ak. Not anticipating any harm, he con.
sented, when the first soldier deliberately
placed his own foot upon log, and severed
one Of his toes. One of the soldiers then
attempted to take the ak from him, but
was forced away by blow aimed at him.
self, when the discharged soldier again
placed his foot upon the log, and with an.
other blow completely cut his foot in half.
He was on the eve of another blow, when
his arm was caught, and the ak wrested
from him by bis companions. He was then
taken to the hospital, where his wound was
examined and dressed by DR.. Barnes, who
thinks amputation will be necessary. The
soldier refuses to give any reason for his
singular conduct, but it is attributed to
shame and modification at his confinement
for desertioR. He was a young, able-bod-
led man.-POrtLand Nel0s, June IL.

He WANTS TO BE RE-APPoINrED.-We
learn that petition is in circulation in this
place, asking the re-appointment of Mr.. s..
GARFIELDE to the Office Of receiver of the
land Office at Olympia, as soon as bis term
Of Office shall have expired. We are not
aware whether the petition is being circu-
lated at the request or with the knowledge
Of Mr. c. or not; nor have we been able
to learn in what manner or for what the
petition recommends him. We have CON
siderable curiosity upon this subject If it
speaks in terms Of commentator Of him as
a Democrat, we must beg leave to put an
exclamation poiut there, as well as two or
three Of interrogation. 1t is true, Mr.. G
said he "voted the Democratic ticket six
teen years ago." (Which was probably his
first vote; but he has never told any one
he voted it since. He may have done ac-
tive Democratic work in Kentucky, for
aught we know, to secure the election of
Buchanan and Breckenridge; but then, by
the time his present term Of appointment
shall have expired, the $4,000 salary
which he will then draw, should be held by
him as full remuneration for his services
If $40, 900 be mans pay for three or four
months connection with, and his labor for
the success of a party how much sho uld he
deducted when for over year be links him
self with its opponents, and works for its
overthrow? Our idea is, Mr. G. is eOnsid-
srably in debt 10 the party. If we were
asked to sign petition stating that Mr..
G.. could perform the duties Of the Office he
now holds, if he ioOHld, we should not hesi-
tate TO append our name. But we could
not, conscienciously, sign one promising
that be would. Better send the petition

ExrRADrIoN.-Cel. M. 7. SIMMONS, Indian
Agent for the District Of Puget Sound, left
here on Monday morning last for Victoria,
whittier he proceeds to obtain an exchange
of Indian prisoners, now held by Indians
of our and those Of the British nation.
There is no law on the subject between the
two nations, and the ColonePs visit to Vic
toria is simply to confer with Gov Doug.
las, and prevail upon him to use his inau-
ence with the Indians under bis control to
give up the three Snohomish Indians now
held as slaves by some of the Northern
Indians. In exchange, the Col. will deliver
to them the two Hyder squaws WHICH
were recently taken in the attack upon a
party of that tribe by the Snohomish Indi-
ans about a month since. Col s. will
have both in charge by the time he reaches
Victoria.

BG- Some two months ago, Philip
George was convicted Of the murder Of o
man named Clark, at Corvallis, Oregon
and sentenced to be hung on the lst inst
A few days previous to the time fixed fol
the. execution, portion of the citizens Of
that place petitioncd the Governor for a
respite of the sentence for thirty days The
prayer Of the petitioners was granted, and
in due time the document was presented
to the sheriff but in order to make it legal
The signature Of the Secretary of State
must be appended. A messenger was dis
patched to Salem, the Capitol, to procure
the requisite signature, but it was hardly
probable that he could return in time to
stay the execution. The fatal hour arrived
and the culprit was led forth to the scaffold
No messenger arrived from Salem. The
prisoner professed himself ready to die,
having made his peace with God. He was
certain it was through his mothers prayers
that God had brought him to repentance
and he charged all who were present to
take warning from his terrible example
After he had concluded his remarks, the
sheriff informed the people of the facts
above stated iu reference TO the respite
He did not know what course to pursue
but finally put the question to the specta-
tors, who decided that the respite should
be respected, and the prisoner remanded to
jail. The Union says there were 5000
persons present.
