TERRITORY OF WASHINGTON,
EXECUTIVE OFFICE,
Olympia, June Z, 1861

J.C. HEAD, Esq, Territorial Libra
rian--Sir: have to acknowledge the
receipt of your communication of this
date informing me that Gin accordance
with an act passed by the Legislature
of w. r., January 80, 1861, You shall
proceed to remove the books, &C., OF
the Territorial Library from this place
to Vancouver, w. T., on the Oath day
of June 1861"
The act referred to has reference to
another act, passed during the same
session of the Legislature, entitled, can
Act to permanently locate the Seat OF
Government of Washington Territory. ="
The enrolled copy of this act. filed in
the Secretary's Office, is without a date,
and is so printed, but upon reference
to the Journal I find it was passed on
the 18th of December, 1860. BY it.,
the Seat of Government is established
at Vancouver.
On the 31st of January, 1861, the
Legislature passed anotheract, entitled,
can Act requesting the vote Of the
people of the Territory Of Washington
relative to the Seat Of Government.
There would appear, therefore, to be
an Inconsistency in the legislation upon
this subject. The act first passed To-
Gates the Seat of Government uncon-
ditionally at Vancouver, while the act
subsequent in date requests vote by
the people on the question of location.
For this reason, therefore, and in
view of the fact that the title to the
land granted as the site for the Capitol,
at Olympia, has been approved by the
Acknowledgement Of the United States,
and portion of the funds appropriated
by Congress already expended, under
instructions from the Treasury Depart
ment, in clearing the site at this place,
I have taken no action towards the re-
moval of the public property until I
can receive instructions from the De-
partment on the subject, and these were
requested by letter from this Office dated
May 1, 1861.
The 18th section of the Organic Act
provides that the Libraryis "to be kept
ut the Seat of Government for the use
of the Governor, Legislative Assembly,
Judges of the Supreme Court, Secreta-
ry, Marshal, Attorney. of the Territory,
&c. Until the question as to the re-
moval of the Seat of Government has
been decided by the proper Depart
ment, l deem it to be my duty to retain
the Library and other public property
at this place, and l have, therefore, to
request that you will suspend al pro-
ceedings towards its removal, until the
receipt at this Office of instructions from
Washington.
I am, very respectfully,
Your obd't serv't,
HENRY McGILL,
Acting-Governor.

LINCOLN AND THE CeUNTRY.-Thef fol-
lowing extract is from a speech made
by Abraham Lincoln in 1910, during
the great political campaign of that
year. He had been holding a debate
with Messrs. Douglas and Lamborn,
and in reply to remark of the latter
that, they were sure of victory, Mr..
Lincoln said:
"The probability that we may fall in
the struggle, ought not to deter US from
the support of a cause which we deem
to be just; it shall not deter me. If
ever / feel the soul within me elevate
and expand to those diminsions not
wholly unworthy Of its Almighty Arch
itect, it is when I contemplate the
CAUSE of my country, deserted by all
the world besides, and l standing up
boldly and alone, and hurting defiance
at her victorious oppressors. Here,
without contemplating consequences.
before high Heaven, and in the face of
the world, I srear eternal fidelity to the
just cause, as I deem ii, Of the land of my
life, my liberty, and my lore. And who,
that thinks with rue, will not fearlessly
adopt the oath that I take. Let none
falter, who thinks he is right, and we
maytsucceed. But, if after all we shall
fall, be It 60. We shall have the proud
consolation Of saying to our conscience,
and to the departed shade of our couu.

by our judgment and adored by our
hearts in disaster, in chains, in torture.
in dead, we never faltered in defend.

the present emergency. It indicates q

country, which should inspire conf

A plentiful supply Of pure blood is as essential
to animal life as light, heat and genial showers are
to the vegetable kingdom. When the proper cir
culation Of the vital fluid is impcded, sickness is
unhealty, the liver becomes clogged with impure
bile which, forced into the system, vtiates and in
flames the blood, cngendering scrofula and cutanc-
GUS and hillary disorders. The experience of six
teen years has fully established the high reputa-
ton Of this invaluable medicine its curative pow
and obstinate cases, with such invariable success
as to call forth the most 1attering concentrations
from eminent physicians throughout the countrl.

Sarsaparilla has been very extensively used in this
city and the neighboring towns, and so far az my
knowledge extends, uniformly with success. In q
great variety of diseases Of long standing, and of
very distressing and dangerous character, which
have resisted long list Of remedial agents, it has
been used-in many Of them with complete sue
cess, and in all with decided benefit. 1t is regard
ed by the medical profession as medicine of grea
efficacy In numerous class of diseases such az in
veterate constitutional complaints, when the sys-
TEN has been long diseased in cases Of long stand
ing; in obstinate diseases of the skin; in enfeebled
conditions Of the system; in chronic Assesses, At
tended with profuse discharges; diseases of the
bones; obstinate ulcers; chronic pulmonary ahtec-
tons, enlarged glands, and various other maladies
connected with . depraved state of the system.
Its use s usually followed with improvement Of ap-
petite and digestion, increase Of strength and hesh
better rests ct night, the production of more
healthy state Of mind, and complete restoration to

LIEUT.. MAURY.-Thc most humilia-
ting spectacle in connection with the
designations of officers, is that presented
by Lieut.. NJ. F. Maury, whose name is
identified with so much that is credita-
BILE. 1t appears that he left his post
under circumstances which justify his
treatment as a descrter, having been
engaged in business with the Secretary
of the Navy up to o'clock on GER
tain day, without saying word of his
intention to abandon the service, and
went from the Department immediate
ly home, packed up and cleared out.
An examination of the records at the
Observatory discloses the fact, that
Lieut.. Maury has for several months
past impressed upon the minds of sci
entitc bodies abroad that this country
was destined to disruption, and that
the Government would not last three
weeks after the Inauguration of MIR.
Lincoln. 1t is not probable his rcsig-
nation will be accepted; but his name
is likely to be stricken from the rolls
of the Navy. Maury, with all his abili-
ty, is victim of almost childish vanity,
and that weakness has led him into his
present disgraceful position.
