How THEY DO BusINEss.-A cores
pondent writing from Washington to
the Portland Oregonian, under date of
Aug. 20, says:
"The Investigating Committee sit
with closed doors. No one knows
what they are doing until an arrest is
made. Faulkner, our late foreign min
lister, was TO sooner in Washington in
disguise, and just ready, with impor-
tant information, to step over into the
enemy's camp, than his honor was per-
fectly thunderstruck and 'msulted by
order from the War Department for his
arrest. lie is now occupying quarters
under the guard of the U. S. army, and
under the flag which he has disgraced.
Mrs. -. wife of an ex-Congressman
Of Alabama, was arrested last evening
I am told that some arrests are expected
tonight. Think of bayonets at the
doors of traitors, their rooms locked,
and their guilty correspondence with
traitors in the hands Of the committee.
The duties Of this committee are not
confined to matters in Washington.
Their views are extensive-and treason
able correspondence is in their hands,
the authors OF which still sleep in
safety"

mandsd BY Capt. Byrne OF San Francis
co, and was bound to Victoria with
freight-some 200 tons of goods-and
thence to some of the mills on the
Sound to load for Valparaiso.
Capt. Byrae, with his crew, ton oil
told, took to their buats with such srti-
cles as they could hastily gather. when
the brig sunk, giving them hardly time
to escape the vortex caused by her sink
ing. They then made for land. and
reached it in safety about four miles be-
low Flsttery rocks. Here tho Indians
took their boat. aud all the thihe Is they
had, but the Captain prevailed OH them
to take his party to Tatooch. Light,
aud were fortunately taken of by the
steamer Sierra Ntrada. Oh the 18th inst,

appointed Indian Agent, with J. @.
Swan, Esq, went to the village and

livery of the remainder of the property,
consisting of fine boat, a sextant, a
quadrant, sail and oars, and Il variety of
other matters which the Agent will
hold subject to the order OF Capt.
Byrne.
The Indians are said to have behaved
in the most respectful manncrto Agent
Webster and Mr.. Swan, and were very
ready to comply with the Agents de-

We understand that the cargo Oh
board the brig was insured for $4,000.
1t is supposed that the brig started Il

She was an old vessel, and had been
sold by the Danish or Russian Consul

Arrival Of the Enterprise!

Last evening, after the above had
been put in type, the Enterprise arrived
at our wharf. She is without doubt
the handsomest and best boat that has
ever visited the Sound. Her salon re-
sembles in magnificence those of the
famous Mississippi steamers, and with
her gentlemanly and obliging officers,
she is destined to he a universal favor
lite. Capt. Curry is her commander,
who combines with the affablc DISPOSE
ton Of true gentleman, the necessary
experience and qualifications for sue
cess. We congratulate the people
whose rights have been 50 disregarded
for the past few weeks, that the efforts
of Mr.. Parkinson should be crowned
with such complete success. We are
informed that the Enterprise will COM
mence the semi.weekly service on
Monday.
A salute was fired last evening for
the Enterprise.

It is reported daily IRON W ashington that IN

For the last fortnight reporters have fixed the
time at which it was 70 begin, which usually w,s
within the week. Every promotion or assign.
ment Of an officer to I particular command i.
also announced 40 indicating an Immediate move.

seems probable that it may not for Is many weeks
more. Yet there 10 no cause Of uneasiness or
impatience. What the people ask is that the
Governments shall comprehend che whole situa.
ton, and shall at once organize its preparations
on scale TO meet It Now that they have be-
come C satisfied that the generous support Of the
north 10 not to be wasted in passive defense Of
washington, and that the Government intends
nothing less than the suppression Of the rebel
lion, and is calling out force sufficient for that
purpose, they are content to leave the conduct
OF operations to the military powers.
The mere mastering OF men is but the begin.
ming Of the preparation necessary for the cam.
paign. The organization of subsistence and
transportation for great army is a mighty work
which IN this country has to be created entirely
anew. To rush men into action without discip-
line, before they have acquired the habit Of ODE.
dience to their officers, is great waste of men ;
and even il they have acquired discipline IN the
school OF the soldier, exercise in movements in
great masses is requisite before it is prudent to
order them into battle. The country sees q
magnitude OF preparation, and is convinced that
the military plans comprehend the entire estab.
lishment of the authority Of the Government,
The people are confident that the plans are made
by great General, and that when he orders a
forward movement it will be with means ade.
Quate for success. On this confidence they are
disposed to rest in patience.-[Cincinnati GA

The MORAL WRoNa OF SScEssioN.-The Con
vention that formed the first Constitution Of
Missouri, says the Evening News, in the ordi
nance accepting the condition Of admission pro
posed by Congress, declared as follows:
'And this convention, for and in behalf of the
people inhsbiting this State, and by the author
ity of said people, do further ordain, agree, and
declare, that this ordinance is irrevocable, with
out the consent of the United States" (See
Rev. Stat. vol. l, pages 81 and 5s.) Signed by
David Barton and w. G. Pettus.
1t will be seen bv this that Missouri cannot
trutbfully and morally withdraw from the Union,
without the consent of the United Statesn-
Whether secession be right or not for other
States, it is certainly wrong for Missouri. 1t
would be gross and objectionable breach Of
faith, and violation Of self-imposed conditions.

MOUNTAIN OF EVIDENCE AGAINST TRAITORS.
AT precisely 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, by
order of the Government, d scent was made
by the United States Marshals upon every con-
siderable telegraph Office throughout the free
States and the accumulated dispatches of the
twelvemonth past were seized. The object was
to obtain evidence of the operations of the
Southern rebels with their Northern accomplices
which the confidential kilograms passing between
could most certainly furnish. The seizure in all
the principal cities were made at precisely the
same time SO as to prevent the destruction Of
evidence which might have followed the receipt
Of a warning from any particular point. The
whole matter was managed with the greatest Sc
cresy, and 80 well planned that the project was
u complete success By this bold vancouver the
Government has obtained possession of mass
OF evidence of the greatest Importance. The
secret operations of Northern traitors are laid
bare, and those who have aided and abetted the
rebellion are now completely at the mercy of the
officers of the law.
In this city alone the dispatches in the hands
Of the Federal officers amount to many thou.
sands, and include, of course, information in
regard to the purchase of arms, ammunition and
equipments, purchase and outfit of vessels dip
lomatic and financial arrangements, the negotia-
ton of rebel loans, the purchase and treachery
of army and navy officers, the secret plans for
dividing the people of the North the progressive
operations Of Government toward suppres.ing
the rebellion, and every other imaginable species
of testimony which the Pirates of the Gulf"
would wish kept secret To overhaul such a
mountain of papers as this will require some
time and much trouble, but the work, in the
hands of an efficient Marshal or Superintendent
of Police, will be promptly, fearlessly and thor.
oughly prosecuted.-[N. Y. Tribune.

Illuminating.

One of the crosses and vexations which JEFF.
Davis and his secession followers are compelled
to bear is to be found in the fact that the Pres.
ident will not declare war against them They
insist that the Southern Confederacy is Power
on the earth, great nation. against whom war
must be formally declared, and which must be
conducted according to the custom Of nations
in relation to such affairs. The Government,
however is obstinate on this subject, and per-
ssts in regarding secession as conspiracy-the
warlike pranks Of our Southern friends as sim
ply and only rebellion, and JEFF. Davis aad all
his followers as rebels, nothing more, nothing
less. This is not only revolving to their pride,
and self.conceit, but it involves q question in
which their necks are in some sort concerned
A prisoner of war, to be provided with rations
and comfortable subsistence until the peace, or
discharged upon parole, is a very different thing
from a captured traitor to be tried by the courts
and judged by the laws against treason. The
one enjoys an honorable restraint while the 9TH
er may have to swing for it.
Besides, if the President would issue a dec
laration of war against the Southern Confedera-
cy, it would be after fashion, an acknowledge.
ment of its nationality, and give it a claim to
| recognition by foreign Powers Don't you
| see" jeff. Davis You'd say, shat the late Uni.
| ted States have declared war against US? ii
| We were regarded as rebels, they would catch us
| if they could and hang US. But by declaring
war against US, they have given us status in the
world, which entities us to your notice" But
the Government, we repeat, is obstinate on this
subject, and persists in taking sensible view Of
| the matter. 1t intends and SO declares its in
tentions to be, to put down rebellion, peaceably
if it can, forcibly if it must-all which is intens
| " disgusting to our Southern friends. They
| wouldn't mind being captured by an army and
held as prisoners of war, but the idea of being
arrested BY constable and tried for treason il
revolving to their pride.-[N. Y. Times.
