embarked on the Isabel for conveyance on board
the United States steamer Baltic. -Four OF his

presume, Capt. Doubleday, who has been said to
be insane. 1t was he who fred the fret gun

From every part of the North the telegraph
brings the gratifying assurance that the people
are rising with one voice to the support of tho
Government. Party lines are oblterated, and
men of all shades of political belief unite in call
ing for vigorous measures to suppress the re-
bellion of the Shareholders. Even in this city,
which the Rebel leaders 30 strongly relied upon
for aid and comfort, there is scarcely a shadow
of treason visible. The presses and the politi-
clans who for months have been doing their best
to break up the Union and to embarrass the
Government are, with few unimportant excep-
tons, awed into silence or acquiescence by the
majestic demonstration of the popular determine
ton to stand by the national flag and to uphold
the Constitution and the laws. At meeting Of
influential gentlemen Of all parties and pro-
fessions held yesterday. steps were taken to give
speedy public utterance to the general sentiment
Before adournng, the meeting passed tho fol-
lowing resolution, and directed it to be te!e-

His Honor Mayor Wood has issued prock-
nation, which We print herewith. He exhorts
us all to keep the peace and repress excitement.
But the peace is broken, and excitement will not
be depressed. formidable body Of armed
traitors have conspired to overthrow the Govern
ment and establish another founded on radically
diverse principles and looking to different ends.
These traitors have stolen the money, seized the
fortresses, and sacked the arsenas of the Union;
they have plundsred the country Of arms and
turned them against its defenders; they have bat
tered one of its important forts into ruins and
compelled its garrison to surrender; they are
now besieging another fort, and threatening TO
march great army to seize the capital of the
Union and subvert its Govnrnment. For al
these reasonable Outrages the Mayor has not
one word Of rebuke, but while the rebels are
mastering legions and pointing cannon be talks
only OF fraternity, quiet and peace. How can
there be peace between loyal citizens and trait.
ors' How can there be peace when armed
thousands openly defy the Constitution and Laws

Usury Law.

EDITOR STANDARD II understand
there is bill before the Legislature.
designed to establish a usury law.
have not learned it's provisions. But /
think law restricting the rate of intcr-
est within just limits, is urgently called
for. The present rates Of interest ex.
acted, are in my judgment, far greater
than in justice should be asked, or by
an honest business can be paid. Many
of our first settlers have been rendered
bankrupt by paying it, and some of our
best citizens are struggling with despair
ing energy to pay the Interest upon
principal utterly beyond reasonable
hope of liquidation. Very well, some
say, money is worth what it will bring,
and such men need not have hired the
money. But in what sense is money
worth what it will bring? Is it worth
it because, few individuals have
money and they have an understand
ing tacit or expressed, that they will
charge a certain per cent? BY this
rule, money it is said, has been worth
six per cent month. But we need
only to look around us to see that tie
laboring men of the country, the class
who must sustain and build up our Ter
ritory, cannot pay higher interest
than is customary in the Atlantic States.
And if they arc imprudent enough to-
attempt it, they ought to have law ora
guardian to prevent them. But it is
said if this large interest is not allowed
the capital will leave the country. Let
it go! have known more men ruined
because they could hire money, than
because they could not. The true
remedy for hard times is hard work.
Some merchants say they can afford to-
pay the interest of the country. But
how? OF course by charging it to
their customers, so most of it must III
that case be paid by the labor Of the
country.
And this same rule necessarily cx-
tends throughout the business Of the
country. Everything is attempted to
be kept up, corresponding to this high
and fictitious value placed upon money.
While labor, the real basis upon which
all business rests, cannot at the present
time sustain such high estimates. The
result is, few men arc becoming very
wealthy, by rcaping the fruits of other
mems labor, without really returning
to them just equivalent. The money
lender, and\thc borrower are both in
jurcd. The borrower by cxhausting
all his time and means to pay this cxor-
btant interest, is rendered incapable OF
promoting the educational, moral and
religious interests Of the country, while
the money lender, by an increased hard
ness Of heart, has no desire to do so.

sal will be promptly and actively en-

citizens from the hostilitics of Indians,
or the punishment of Indians for past
outrages or preventive against fu-

Unless disturbances occur in another
quarter, not now to be anticipated,
which may cause division of the mil

News from the Interior.

by the Carrie Lodd last evening, we
received news from st. Mary's valley,
forwarded from Walla Walla on the
18th inst. We have not space for the
whole letter to-day. Among the most
important items which it contains, we
insert the following:
Numerous settlers from the Dallcs,
Walla Walla and Colville, have recent
" located in the Bitter Root valley
and lIellgatc Ronde, and several trad
ing posts have been established. An
emigration has settled in Deer Lodge
valley.
A Mormon having ten men under
him, and large band of stock, had ar
rived at the Deer Lodge to prepare the
way for large colony Of Mormons in
the Spring. The settlers are disturbed,
and have advised the Mormon to leave.
This he refuses to do, saying that he
will remain and abide the consequences.
The Salmon river Snakes, or Ban
nocks, have attacked the white settlers
at Beaver Head, killing many Of their
cattle, and forced the settlers to fly to
Deer Lodge for protection. These In
dams have about 600 warriors, aid are
very defiant. They are the murderers
of the emigrants, and Deer Lodge and
Beaver Head arc their old mastering
grounds.
The Flathcads and Pend d'Oreilles
arc very much disatfectcd about their
reservation, and there are numerous
whites in tic valleys who will not res
pect the authority of the Government
agent there, but are constantly melting
the Indians to acts of aggression.
A strong military force is urged as
of immediate necessity.
On the Both Dec. an express arrived
from Fort Benton, which reported that
thePend d'Oric!les Mt Buffalo fought the
Assinaboines AND had ten men killed,
and 20 wounded, and lost 300 horses.
The chief AlcXander's son was killed.
Ten bodies Of Indians were found at an
old Sioux camp, and the conjecture is
that Capt. Reynolds party of U. S.
Engineers have had brush with the
Sioux. --7'mce. Dec. Goth.

l. The 4th section of Donation Act,
(Sept. q 1850 refers to those only,
who had become entitled to the grant
before, and died after the passage Of
the act.
.. The 9Th section of same act, only
includes cases, where husband died
before expiration Of four years resi-
dcncc.
3. The 4th section describes the class
of claimants, and prescribes the re-
quircments of four. years residence
and cultivation.
4. The grant under the 4th section is
to the settler, not to the wife, !. e.
ore half to himself and one half t.
wife by virtue Of marriage before
Dec. LIST 1861.
5. AS no action of wife is necessary im
perfection of title, her death does
not interfere with the settler making
his full residence.
The facts IN the case are admitted by
both parties and proven by the papers
OH file in this office. Rebecca w., first
wife of Isaac N. Ebcy, was married to
him in October, 1S43, and resided with
him upon his donation claim ION which
he had settled in 1850 from November
1851, to the time of her death, on the
2sth of September, 1858, leaving three
children now living.
Emily A., the surviving widow Of
Isaac n. Ebey, was married to him OH
the 21st of January, 1856, and resided
with him upon his claim, from that
time to his death in August, 1851,
there being no issue of the second
marriage.
The widow, emily A. Ebey,) now
claims, under the 4th section of the
Donation Act, one half of the claims
of her late husband, in her own
right, and an equal portion with tho
heirs, in the part which shall be assign
ed to her late husband.
That clause of the 4th section of the
act of September 9th 1850, which
defines the rights of married persons,
"who have complied with the provis-
ions of the law, so as to cntitle them
to the grant as above provided, and
who shall have died before patent
issues" refers, as is shown by the change
of tense from past to the future, t"
those only, who had become entitled
to the grant, before, and died after the
passage of the act, and il not appliea;;
bic in the casc Of the first or second
wife of |. n. Ebey.
The 9Th section, provides only for the
death of the husband, before the cxpl'
ration of the four years residence re-
qnircd by law.
The 4th section describes what class

w. N. Ayers, Esq, from reliable
gentleman formerly of this place:
AMERICA CITY, Nov. 26, 1860.
FRIEND AyERs-,Sw: l promised to
write to you and give the news from the
mines. | arrived here from the Dalles
on the 10Th inst. There was some min
ing going on then, but it is now closed.
We have no snow, but it is getting too
cold to mine. There will be about
900 men, all told, at Rock Creek,
Okanagan and here, during the winter,
which will last up to March, next when
mining will commence again. These
pay very well there arc some claims
that do not pay working. holland,
Swart Il Co. have the richest diggings.
They three took out 500 in one day,
20 feet deep. They have taken ont
pieces weighing 81 so and So 90, and
We'll & Go. one weighing $32. holland
& Co. have taken out 81, 600 since last
May, when they first commenced min
ing. New diggings are being discov-
cred down Kettle river, in our good old
Unclc's territory, which is probably
the best we know of as yet. New di g-
gings are also being found up the Okan-
agan river, towards Frazer. The We
natchec mines are attracting some at
tcntion. This stream takes its rise near
the Snoqualmic Pass, or Tcrry's De-
feat, as some Of the Seattle folks call it.
Its course is nearly due cast, and emp
ties into the Columbia, go miles above
Priests Rapids.
Valley Flour is selling here at $50
per hundred: Colvillc Flour, SIG; Ba-
con, SOC; Beef (fieslD Is and Zoe. and
everything else in proportion. What
we want now is good wagon road
from the Dallcs to Kettle rivcr-onc
upon which we can put our siX-mulc
teams, and trci glt our goods at a better
advantage. Packing is the last resort
of transportation in any country. 1t is
done ut great expense, and is, ut the
best. very hard slavish work.
There is nothing else of Importance
to write. Old Abe must certainly be
elected President, for the air is as clear
dts IL bcil--Nc HWY llot HUI Il CIouuN way
for the past week. l doubt whether
we will hear the result Of the election
this winter, for the snow will soon
close up the land communication over
the hills, and we are all to ourselves.
If there were stations on the road, this
would be fine country for travelling
III during winter. The SNOW is not too
deep for good sleighing, and We have
none of your Oregon mists up here.
Respects to all. lam,
Respectfully Yours,
