PIERCE co. REPuRIIcAN CONVENTION

Pursuant TO notice, the Pierce County Repub
llcan Convention met AT the N. +. Church, in
SteilacOOm, Oh Saturday, June LIST, and organ
lied by clecting j. NJ. Bachvlder chairman, and
j. V. MeeGer secretary.
The Committee on Resolutions, appointed at a
previous meeting, submitted the following:
Resotred lst That We, the Republicans Of
Pierce and Sawamish Counties, in convention
assembled, do most heartily endorse the princi.
pies cnunciated in the Chicago platform; but in
view Of our present great national troubles, which
threaten the very existence of our beloved miOn,
We do not deem it necessary to adopt it as our
sole political rule and guide, but would most
earnestly call upon all citizens to stand shoulder
u shoulder by the Constitution Of our country,
and to advocate on all occasions the true doctrine
Of the Union VI the States.
2d. That we do most cordially endorse the
principles enunciated in.the inaugural address Of
President Lincoln, the policy Of his administra
tion, as far as developed and proclaimed, and
have entire confidence in his fidelity and ability
to carry the nation tTiumphanty through the
present alarming crisis.
3d. That we deem the act Of the Territorial
Legislature, removing the Capital from the Sound
to any other portion Of the Territory, as one Of
gross injustice % this section, and that We will
not support, directly or indirectly, any person
who would vote for such a measure.
4th. That we are entirely satisfied with the
choice Of our late Territorial Convention, and
that we will use all laudable endeayOrs to secure
the election Of Wm. II. Wallace as our next del.
egate to Congress.
On motion, the resolutions were adopted.
On motion, the Convention then proceeded to
ballot for county officers, which resulted in the
nomination Of the following gentlemen:
For COuHel-E. Mecker.
For RePressntdtires-C. H. Spinning, L. Bills.
For County COMmissiORer-HenryM MuIrey.
For AsseSSOr-Petcr Smith.
The nomination Of Mr.. Purdy, Of Sawamish,
as joint representative was endorsed; after which
all Of the nominations were, on motion, declared
unanimous.
On motion, the Secretary was instructed to
furnish copies Of the proceedings Of the Couven-
ton for publication to the Puget Sound Herald,
Washington Standard, and Northwest.

REMOVAL or THE FEDERAL CAPTAL-The
subject Of the removal Of the seat Of Govern.
ment is agitated to some extent in the North.
ern press. The N. Y. Herald strongly urges
the claims and advantages Of New York city,
while other journals advocate more central To-
cation. The Chicago people are beginning to
talk that city as a suitable place for the seat
Of Government A dispatch to one Of their pa.
pers says:-" It is rumored that President Lin.
coin has sent Private Secretary to this city
for the purpose Of ascertaining if suitable ar.
rangements can be made for the assembling Of
Congress here on the Fourth Of July next
Every accommodation will be given to the body
should they deem 1t exPedient to meet in this
city," The critical circumstances in which the
President and his Cabinet arc at present placed,
by the cutting Of Of their communications with
the loyal States, confirm the opinion that WASH
ingtOn is not ct place for the seat Of Govern.

MASSACRE IN New ZEALAND.-By the arrival
Of whalcship at Honolulu, S. l., we learn that
aterriblc massacre Of the settlers Of New Zea.
land has recently taken place. The Commercial
Ad,eriSer Of April 18th contains tho intelligence,
which is received through Capt. Winslow, Of
the ship in question. The following extract
embraces the facts ave cannot find precisely
the date when this massacre took place, but as
near as we can learn, II was during December
or January. Capt winslow was at the Chatham
Islands about the middle of February; and
while there, schooner arrived from Auckland,
bringing paper with the details Of the massa-
ere. The natives came down from the noun
tains in great numbers and surprised one Of the
settlements near Auckland, numbering in the
most inhuman manner about $50 inhabitants
The most hOrrid barbarites were practised by
them in the attack, defenseless farmers butch
cred, women with child were cut open, and
small innocent children had their hands and
feet cut of, and in that miserable condition left
to perish"
