bring fair quantity of dust with them.
These miners will start back for the mines
next Thursday. They state that they found

yielded from 25 TO so cents to the pan,
and that the dirt oil over the face of the
country, as far as prospected, yielded from
TO 10 cents to the pan. A man named
Keef, washed out $40 from seventy-five
pans Of dirt, the day before they started
down. The miners are all in good spirits,
and are sure Of being well paid for the
bardships they have endured during the
past winter. A great many of our most
enterprising citizens are going to the new
FL Dorado. Great excitement prevails all
over the whole valley. Indian horses are

tions Of our common country, we do earn

strong ties Of fraternal political unity,
which have hitherto bound together our
happy country into one grand aud prosper
Gus nationality.
Resolved, 2nd.-That there are no exist
ing causes sufficient for the dissolution of
our Union; on the contrary, we arc of opin-
ion that all present aggraVations and en-
croachments, both real and imaginary, can
and ought to be amicably arranged by mu-
tual compromise aud concession, and we
think that such a settlement is imperatively
demanded by the magnitude Of the vital
interests now involved.

the Union is unimpaired, steadfast and i'm.
movable, and that our hopes for the future
destiny Of our Territory are inseparably
connected Herewith.
ResoLred, 4h-That we entirely repudi-
ate, as stain on our patriotism,-as de-
structive Of our material prosperity, aud as
reasonable in nature and design, any and
all attempts to establish a Pacific COnfed-
eracy, or to dissolve or diminish our present
intimate connection with the mother States.
The Secretaries were requested to furnish

The Resolutions were unanimously adopt
ed.

USIOS MEErEG.-The union meeting
which assembled yesterday afternoon, al
the Capitol, was Influential in numbers and
intelligence. From large circle Of coun
try, its best men we're gathered together
draWn at this time more closely to one an.
other BY our unhappy trOubles-to express
their unwavering devotion to the preserya-
lion Of our common country. The speak.
ers who were iu attendance portrayed vivid
ly, all those horrors which we so deeply re-
alize may yet take place, resulting from dis
union, and the determination to stand by
what remains to us Of our original confed-
eracy, was unanimous. A Pacific Repub-
lie vas repudiated, nor was it alluded to as
being a desirable thing in any possible con
tingency. Before this, as an absolute ne.
cessity, a provisional government Of our
own would be preferred, as something more
substantial, more just, and better adapted
to our present situation. We hope that the
evidences Of our loyalty may not be with
out their weight, as they plainly show that
we appreciate with warm gratitude, the
care Of our home government.

neer His untiring energy and long expe-
rience will be especially valuable in form
ing practical estimates, as to the location,
existence and cost Of road through the
Cascade mountains, south Of Mt Rainier.
The life Of civil engineer, especially in a

ment. We append list of DeLacy's SER
vices, to better illustrate these remarks:
In the copper mines Of Lake Superior;
exploration Of Western Texas for silver
mines; wagon road expedition, under Co..

Der of smaller surveys and military services.
No one can show a more honorable, useful
or enduring record than a competent civil
engineer, and no one can show so poor a
remuneration, in proportion to its hard life,
as this profession.

University Lands.

Congress having granted this Territory
two townships Of land-total amount, forty
six thousand and eighty Ocres-the last Leg
islature appointed Rev. Daniel Bagley,
John Webster and Edmund Carr, commits
souers to dispose Of these lands. The
President Of the board advert;ses this week,
that they are now ready to locate and dis
pose Of the lands. Mr.. A. NJ. Poe, Land
Agent, is agent at this place.
The citizens Of Seattle have generously
donated ten acres Of land, in an eligible
place, for the University building Hon.
A. A. Denny, was especially liberal
The following are the important provis-
ions Of the act to dispose Of the lands
The commissioners are in no case to Sc
lect more than $40 acres in one body.
Expenses Of commission-including So
per day for each commissioner while actu'
ally engaged in the work Of the commission
Ito be paid by the Territory.
After lands have been properly entered
at the Land Office, they may be sold at moi
less than one dollar and half per acre.
An excellent opportunity is thus afforded
our citizens 10 all parts Of the Territory for
obtaining fee simple Of a desirable tract
Of land, by the payment of not less than one
dollar and fifty cents per acre. Persons
wishing to secure fractions adjoining their
claims can avail themselves Of this means
to secure a perfect title. The amount ol
land thus to be sold will create Terrific
rial fund for University purposes of not less
than seventy thousand dollars, a handsome
som for our higher educational purposes,
