ESCAPED FROM JAlL.--Yesterdsy morning,
about seven o'clock, William Woodward,
charged with killing a member of one of the
Michigan regiments, at the corner Of Congress
and Water streets. in Georgetown, on the 10Th
of July, made his escape from jail.
With the other prisoners he had been let out
Of his cell to exercise in the passage, when he
discovered that the only door between him and
the outside, which fastens by spring latch,
had been closed but not latched, through
which he passed into the passage on the lower
floor and out the door at the west end to the
yard, scaled the low wall on that side, and made
his escape. =.
Instant alarm was given, and the police and
guards put on his track, but, at late hour last
night they had met with no success.
1t will be remembered that Woodward is O
desperate character, who has served severa
terms in the Penitentiary for various offences
The Marshal, it will be seen by the advertise
ment in another column, offers reward oil
fifty dollars for his capture.

IMPROVEMENT on THE SOUND.


To The Editor Cf the Puget .SoUnd Herald:
STEAMER RANGER, Jan. 18th, 1861.
After an interval Of some months, again re-
sumo my jottings Of matters and things on Puget
Sound
Among the more recent substantial improve
ments noted is that Of the Suspension Bridge at
Tumwater, constructed by Messrs. C. Crosby &
Co. These gentlemen have contributed much to
improve the public thOroughlares, prominent
among which is this, perhaps the most costly
and substantial bridge of the Territory They
have also established q cheap and independent
system of trade, which secures justice to every
class Of people in that community, and bids de-
fiance to any and all who might wish to take
advantage. think much credit is due to the
above named firm for thespirit Of enterprise aud
principles Of honor which have ever character
iZed them. ....
-Four years ago, neither Stcilacoom nor 0lym.
pa could boast an Academy, and the facilities
for obtaining that crOwning qualification, Edu-
cation, seemed to many to be far away in the
dim and Swallowed future. Now, however, may
be seen preceptors and teachers Of the first order
standing in the doors Of our noble institutions,
inviting all to come and be fitted for any chosen
profession with which they may wish TO adorn
their future career.
In addition to the institutions of learning al.
ready established, school has been commenced
at Oakland, Sawamish county. This school is
conducted by gentleman Of Learning and expe.
ronce, who arrived with the late emigration
across the Plains. This affords conclusive proof
that the cause Of education is constantly in the
minds Of our citizens, and, when our expanding
resources arc more fully developed, the whole
will be crowned with good degree Of that beau
ulying qualification, cultivated talent, without
which greatness is never obtained. ..f f.r
