Editor of Pioneer and Democrat:
SIR:-Mr. Garfelde, in bis answer to
my card, has not denied a single statement
made by me. He arranges his reply under
nine heads. The first is discussion of my
motives, but does not deal with the facts
which have stated. In the second, be
acknowledges having received various sums
on private deposit, 'at the urgent solicita
tions of the parties" and alleges that it is no
fault of his if the public have not the same
confidence in me. am not Confidence
man, and certainly do not want such touch.
ing proofs Of confidence as private deposits,
without security or interest. One thing is
surely evident, that although tine urgent SO,
licitations Of the parties induced him to re-
ceive the money, the most urgent solcita-
lions have not induced him to refund it,
If, as stated under his third head, pri-
vate deposit was sufficient to induce him to
protect the depositor, an honest settler,
from jumpers, what would be the effect on
the honest settler when the jumper was the
depositor?
The fourth head needs no answer.
In answer to hrs statement under the
fifth head, will again state that the Re
ceiver and notified him, in several cases,
that we were ready to issue certificates on
the payment of the money.
In the case of David Parker, who depos.
tied $400 with Mr.. Garfelde, we stated
that the survey and receipt were on file in
this Office This letter was handed by Mr.
Butler Anderson to Mr.. Gar6elde, who
promised to pay in day or two, but has
never done so. III have misrepresented
Mr.. Anderson, let him speak again re-
fer to Messrs. Anderson, of Cowltz, Bur
bank, Van VIeet, Van Cleave and G. C.
Terry for the truth Of my statements.
The claims OF the parties have generally
been placed in the hands of attorneys, for
collection, by the cohfding public, who are
not disposed to await the Instructions from
the Commissioner
Since my first communication, l have
learned from Mr. Gilmore Hays, that 5000
was paid by Mr.. Putnam Hays on private
deposit, of which there is no record on the
books of the land Office.
| leave the author of the orphan boy
story to the fate which awaits him, when
in the slow progress of events Mr.. Gar
felde sees fit to expose him. l do not my
self believe word of the story, and will
be glad to see the author dragged to light.

Letter from Hon. A. R. Burbank.
MONTICELLO, Feb. 27, laG.


Editor Pioneer aud Democrat:
slR:-I see that Mr. Garfede, in his reply in your
paper Of the Sth February, 10 the card OF Mr. Isaac
W. Smith Register Of the Land Office, seeks by inge
niou omissions OF facts and couyertiuns, to cast re-
Elections upon me in regard to my statement made tp
the Register in the case OF Mr.. Creecy, for whom
was acting as agent to certain monies which
were deposited by Mr.. Creecy with Mr., Garielde for
preemption claim. Mr. Garhelde viii remember that
the first application to him to refund Mr.. Creecy
his money Mr.. Creecy could not pay fOS the land
legally, lie (AIr c. promised ME to hand or pay it
over to the Register The mOrrOtc, the amount due
Mr. Creecy and that could then call for the same,
This money he failed 10 pay as he said he toculd; by
waving the matter until he could hear from the Com
missioner of the General Land Office at Washington
City. Subsequently, he offered to give me the money
t. enter the land, provided the Register would receive
it, Mr. Gerielde states in reply. told him that
presumed the Register would not thus receive it, for
be had stated that his Instructions were against such
deposits.
So il will be seen, that this point, the Register
card is qnie true.
The last conversation with Nr. Garfcde by me was
when he offered to give me the money to enter the
land with and was on the lst Of February and after
the date Of the Registers card. the 3lst January.
With reference to the origin of the Registers card,
or its sub matter, never knew or anything OF
it, further than Mr. Smiths saying that "since Mr..
Garielde had cast refections upon him in public
speech, he thought it was due himself to make de-
fense and give the public the facts in reference TO the
cases Of deposits made by land claimants with Mr..
Garielde, and his official conduct herewith"
My conversations with Mr.. Gardelde were strictly
upon business as agent for of my constituents.
and far the motives Of political butchery" eth
er on the part of Mr.. Smith, as known 10 me- or my
self, enter indignant protest against this manner
Of evading an ISSUE by Sinking the main question
the only question we concerned inthe question
Of my constituents dollars and cents. Messrs. Van
vleet Of Clarke, Terry Of King, and others, the
grounds might be accused of political butch

LYMAN sHAFFER, JR.,
Speaker of The House Of Representatives..
PAUL X. HUBBS,

UnquestionabIy, in this shape, it is nc
law; the omission Of the enacting clause be.
ing fatal. The laws locating the Universe
ty and Penitentiary, passed on the same
day, have this clause, and their provisions
wlll, therefore, at the proper time, be car
ried into effect. As it lacks the essential
quality Of law, we presume the Capital
Act will not appear among the printed
statutes enacted by the last Legislature; at
least, we can see no propriety in giving it
a place where it does not belong. This,
however, is question to be decided by the
Executive of the Territory.
We congratulate the people of Olympia
and OF the Sound upon the fact that the
next Legislature will meet in Olympia, .as
usual We think we but echo the senti-
mcnt of the voters of this county when we
say the Capital should never, under any
be suffered to leave the
Sound, and we rejoice with them over the
defeat Of the schemes to take it to Colum-
bia river.
, 1861-03-08

Pursuant to notice, meeting was held
in the town of Olympia, on the evening Of
Tuesday the 5th Of March, for the purpose
of making arrangements to secure an i'm
mediate examination of the Nisqually Pass,
and the route south of Mount Rainier. A
large number of citizens were present, all
of whom took great interest in the pro-
ceedings, and were sanguine on the subject
Of an early and successful exploration of
the pass.
On motion, the meeting being called to
order, Elwood Evans, Esq, was elected
chairman, and Rich'd Lane secretary. The
chairman having announced the object of
the meeting, communication from VIM.
Packwood, Esq, addressed to the Editor
of the Pioneer and Democrat, dated July,
1859, giving an account of a trip across
the NisqualIy Pass, was read.
Messrs. Packwood and Blankenship were
callod upon to give all information they
could on the subject Of the practicability
of opening a route through the Nisqually
Pass. The valuable information given by
these gentlemen went to show that there
was every reason to believe that this route
could be made available for pack trail at
a comparatively light expense.
Messrs. Barnes, Warbass aud Frankel
were appointed committee to solicit sub.
, 1861-03-08

Some correspondent Of the Oregon
Statesman gently cases himself of some OBJ
jectiOns to our remarks on Mr.. Gar6eld's
speech, and we should infer from the tone
Of the communication that the writer sus-
tains squatter sovereignty as paramount.
The Union seems to siuk into insgnifcance
in comparison. Does not the writer know
that Mr.. Douglas himself, in manner that
has done him credit as patriot, says that
he is willing to act as il he had never given
a vote or made a speech on the subject |?
As for ourselves, give US &asthing that will
be mutually satisfactory to the North and
South. We will be satisfied with its JUS
tiee. If popular sovereignty, then well
and good, for it little becomes any patriot
at the present time to offer bis narrow par
tisan Tiews as an ultimatuu.
, 1861-03-08

tutional rights Of both North and South
should be recognized in an incohoate gov.
ernmeut, whether ns a Territory, or when
about to assume State sovereignty, yet no
Democrat has ever denied equal rights to
the South in the Territories. We have
respected, and DO respect the Constitution.
We have Published above the doctrines that
we candidly believe have brought about the
present critical state Of affairs. Do these
not repel the charge Of Senator Seward
that vs. have misrepresented himl These
doctrines seem to us so bitter, their seno
ments so hostile 10 the Union aud Consii
tuition, that language Of an opponent will
fail 10 intensity them. 1t is not surprising
that the South should be alarmed at the
TmuMPHAL INAUGURATION Of o Republican
This is the language that the North have
used and heard for years, and by thes'
enunclations is elected, BY the North ALONE
without single electoral role from tie south
without single vote of any kind in tel
States, a northern President, On a northern
platform, by northern votes alone. Return
to the Constitution, aud all yet may bc
well.

Olympia the Capital. 4

The good people of Vancouver, as we
noticed last week, have laughed over the
success of the Clarke county delegation in
having the Capital removed to that place
it is now the turn of the good people of
Olympia to laugh at the signal defeat of
the measure designed to take from them the
Capital. BY singular omission, which we
attribute to the haste with which it was
prepared and forced through the Legisla-
ture, the act to remove the Capital to Van
couver is not law, and therefore is of no
effect. Unfortunately for Vancouver, the
vital part OF the act-Be IL enacted By The
Legislative Assembly of he Territory of
WashiRgton--is omitted. Without this
clause, there is nothing to show that the act
was passed by the Legislature Of this Ter
ritory; for aught the world might know to
the contrary, it was part Of the proceed
ings of the Legislature Of South Carolina,
or of Maine, or something gotten up by
Messrs. Shafer and Hubbs for their own
amusement For the benefit of our read
ers, we print the bill precisely as itreceived
the signatures Of the presiding officers of

not long since, in the OpgoRian, whole

them Of incompetency-aud wor,bessness,-
although in another column Of the same
issue was letter from a Dalles correspon-
dent warmly eulogizing the officers at that
post for their prompthcss and efficiency in
the Butter creek affair Thus actions con
traaict the editors hard words. Again
were we astonished to see an anonymous
correspondent in the Times charging Major
Grier with eooardice, the gravest charge
that man can make against man, and the
most cruel when done in this way-in the
dark Major Grier is a gallant soldier
having seen long and active service on the
frontier aud battle field And though the
Times now admits the charge to be false,
yet what reparation is that? Many will
see the charge that never see the denial
We enter our earnest protest against such
publications, for the sake of the decency oi
journalism. When we are forced to act,
from convictions of opinion, in opposition
to the military, We can do so as a matter Of
right, but in the mean time, let us cherish
towards them kind and cordial feeling =
Next to the Press, the officers, constantly
travelling, make US known to the world
Our interests, while they are in our midst
are identical The support of many citi
zeus depends upon the posts, and the army
furnishes market for much Of our pro
Fduce. We are all American citizens, and
as such, have kindred sympathies, which
should not beiallenated by falsehoods based
on prejudice.
The record of Major Grier is far above
aspersion, it was made on the battle field
We find, officially, that he was breveted
Major ''for gallant and meritorious conduct
in the battle of Santa Cruz de Rosales
and since the time of bis cadetship in 1871
has seen constant and arduous services.

tons. us were too much hurried then to en-
ter oar protest against bis assertion that

We democrats have always said Aus
that either the Republican party or the

believe Is Republican; at least, that is
prevailing impression that has gotten
abroad, and We are inclined to think that
il has some foundation. as Mr.. Seward was
candidate before the Republican conven-
ton that nominated Mr., Lincoln. What
then are these sentiments that Mr., Seward
