VANCOUVER, April ., 1851.
Editor Pioneer and Democrat
Tho there is no Stirring news" for YOU
from this section, few items and sugges.
tions may not be uninteresting.
This young city bears more evidence Of
progress and improvement than any other
town in our Territory Hard times have
their effect here as elsewhere Of course.
Yet new buildings aud newly cleared lots
are to be seen all around, despite the gen.
eral complaint of mo money" On the
spot where the ldte fire occurred there are
now two large two-story buildings already
covered over and partly occupied Fur
ther out, on the same street, is the frame
of district school house about as large
as the NJ. E. church in yoar town. And in
many other localities there are neat and
permanent looking dwellings in course of
erection. In a more central part of the
town lot was pointed out to me yester-
day upon which line brick store is 10 be
erected this summer.
Looking at the town and its past history
with its prospects in future, can see no
reason why it should not become larger
and more important place than Portland
The site is one of the most beautiful on the
Pacific coast-the position is good in every
sense of the word, and the natural advan-
tnges are altogether superior to those of
Portland bat | have no time to present my
views fully on this subject.
Quite a number hereabouts will go to
the Nez Perces mines this spring. Indian
horses are in demand for packing purposes.
They are selling readily at from $25 to 40
dollars. Confidence in the success Of these
mines seems to be pretty firmly fixed in the
public mind here. think there will be
quite rush to them during the spring and
summer.
Clark county people are generally talk
ing Of that question which bi-ennially dis
turbs our people, viz; "Who will be next
delegated" Candidates are thick and busy
as bees. The Republicans here will (I
think be united, and act as one man 10 the
canvass. The democracy, too, will, be-
lieye, be united on the nominee, whoever
be may be. Now they have their personal
preference; some are for Strong, some for
Lancaster, some for Brooke, and OCCASION
ally you meet a man who goes for Stevens
or Garfelde. The race before. the CoaSea-
lion seems 10 be between the FIRST three
persons named above, and II is dificnlt TO
guess who's ahead. The contest is not a
bitter one by any means. 1t is carried on
in friendly way so as to create no perma-
nent scism. Court 10 session-70 or sol
cases on docket.

Editor p S. Herald:
Deeming it due to the public that some
report should be made by the commission
ers appointed to superintend the cutting
and clearing Of the Nachess trail, we res
pectfully furnish the following short sum
mary Of their proceedings.
Starting from here at noon, March IS,
we reached Connel's Prairie on the evening
of the goth There is good wagon road
about thirty miles. Gu the 2lst, our work
commenced; cutting to White River, %
miles, and crossing at Porter's, (the old
crossing) found it rather bad crossing, ow-
ing TO large bonlders in the river. Thence
we cut on up White River, clearing the
way from day TO day, until the 9th, when,
having got to the foot Of the snow, aud
completed the trail, we prepared TO return.
This point is about six miles from the sum
nit OF the mountain pass. We kept on
the left or north side of White river oil
the way, after crossing. On the morning
of the 9th we fitted out three Of the par
ty, who wished TO go OH to the mines
Capt. Dayton and Mr.. Miller proposed to
accompany them to the summit, and report
as 10 the snow, &c. The remainder Of the
party returned to Bois creek, three miles
above the old crossing Of White river,
where we crossed at remarkably good
crossing near Mr.. Fleets claim Thence
we cut good trail, this way, to South
Prairie, from which there is good wagon
road to Fennelps Prairie, twenty-five miles
from Steiaeoom) where it intersecis the
road Travelled going out. We would rec
ommend this latter route, and the crossing
at Bois creek, near Fletrs, as being better
than the one taken going out.
We arrived here on the 30th ult., being
absent twelve days. Capt. Dayton aud
Mr.. Miller arrived two days afterwards,
aud report the snow about six feet deep
on the summit. They Travelled up without
snow shoes, packing about 40 O'lbs. each.
They left the party going over ia about
mile beyond the summit. From appear
ances, tie snow is somewhat deeper on the
east slope Of the mountain.
In our judgment, a good wagon road
/ from here to the summit can be made FOL
the sum OF $4,000. In no instance is there
remarkably long or steep grades.
We found gold at oil points on Whit
River, in small quantities.
We compute the distance from Stella
COON 10 the summit at about eghy-hS'
miles.

two shillings per head. Thus 1t is that
the "nigger" is stuffed down our throats

DOUGLAS ON COERCION coercion
must always be used in the mode prescribed
in the constitution and laws | hold that
the Federal government is, and ought to
be, clothed with the power and duty to use
all the means necessary to coerce obedience
to all laws made in pursuance OF the Con-
stitution. But the proposition to sub7ert
the de faetO foreign government Of South
Carolina, and to reduce the people of that
Stale into subjection to our federal Authori-
", no longer involves the question OF enforc-
ing the laws in country within our posses
sion; but does Involve tlAqnestion whether
we will make war on State which has
Withdrawn her allegiance and expelled our
authorities, with a view of subjecting her
to our possession for the purpose of enforc-
ing our laws within her limits.

Over the crispy snow.

Why should break the spell?
Why should tell them that only myth
