JUSTICE TO THE HAwkEYEs.

1t is sith peculiar pleasure that We have
read the just and nube tribute paid by the
St. Louis Necs to the brave Iowa Boys,
and which will be found in another part
Of our paper. Coming from the source,
and at The time it does, it is the cause of
unfsigned JOY to every true son of Iowa.
Since active hos,ilities commenced we
have all prided ourselves on the heroic
daring, marvellous endurance, and gallant
bearing in camp and battle, of our Iowa
soldiers. We knew that they sought the
tented field not through vain ambition, or
hope of gain, or for the mere reputation
Of patriotism. A noble sense of duty and
lofty, genuine patriotism, alone induced
them to throw themselves into the breach
caused by traitor hands. Most admirably
have they discharged their whole duty In
many II hard Tough, battle they have shown
themselves the "brayest Of the brave
They have won an imperishable renown
for this fair young State which cherishes
them With such tender solicitule. They
have fairly won for Iowa the title Of

ly circulated by certain Cincinnati and
Chicago papers, and for no other purpose
than to secure from public opprobrium

own regiments, and the criminal neglect,
and incompetency OF certain Generals

liant sons at the battle--we nigh, with
propriety say the massacre-of Shi'oah.
There is nothing dearcr to soldier than
his reputation. Justice to Iowa, and her
sons, require that military authority should
compel those papers that gave publicity to
these ISLANDERS to disclose the guilty au-
thors, that they may be punished as such
crimes richly deserve.

THE GOLD MINES.

We learn from our exchanges that the
new gold mines Of Washington Territory,
are attracting general attention. Several
boats from ST. Louis are now daily expect.
ed a. this place en- route for Fort Benton,
which point is from one to three hundred
miles distant from The riches: of the Upper
Missouri mines. These steamers are we'll
loaded with MEN Of energy and enterprise,
determined to satisfy themselves whether
or not these mines really exist and are of
the extent and richness commonly report
ed. The expedition we believe will meet
with success 1t is not doubtful ex-
pertinent. Recent intelligence Of the
most reliable character compel US to be.
lieve these mines the richest that have
been discovered in any region. The
character Of the country and locality
would by themselves seem to settle the
question. Fortunately we need not rely
upon conjecture supported by strong
natural reasons.
A few days since we had the pleasure OF
meeting Col. VAUGHN, Major ScHooyovER
and Major CLARK, who arrived here direct
from the upper country. Col. VAUGHN
who has been in the new GOLD region for
twenty one years as Indian Agent, assures
Us that the gold is abundant, and Of the
richest quality. Mines have been opened
which in richness rival the best ever dis
covered in California. Indians have plen.
~ Of the gold dust to trade, and large
shipments Of dust have been made annu-
ally for several years by Indian traders
They have kept it a secret as long as pos,
sible. But like murder, the existence of
the precious metal will out. Since last
fall several thousand white people, mostly
from California. have commenced opera
tons in that region, and are mining with
great success. AT present the Bitter Root
Valley seems to be the iarorite spot.
The utmost reliance can be placed in
the statements Of Col. VAUGHN, who is a
man of canior, wealth and position, is
relieved from his Agency, does not expect
TO return to that region, and could have
no possible object in misleading the public
The richest part of the mining region is
but shor: distance from Fort Benton,
which point can be reached BY navigation
On the Missouri. The mines are therefore
easy Of access, and invite large emf.

DOG La W.

The following are some of the leading
features Of the dog law:
The law provides that on or before the
18th day of May every man that owns
dog shall pay to the treasurer of his
school district one dollar for every male
and three dollars for every female dog :;
and tina: such dogs shall have collar Of
metal or leather, said collar to be all inch
and half wide.
1t further provides that any man
haIborng dog that the above taxes has
not been paid on shall be liable to fine,
said fine Lot exceeding ten dollars; and
further, if a dog wearing such collar shall
attempt to bite any person outside Of his
owners yard he may be killed on the spot
and the owner become liable for all dam
age done by said dog.
1t shall be the duty of city officials, and
others that wish to take it upon themselves,
to destroy any dog that has no collar on.
The treasurer Of each school district
shall keep a registered list of the dogs on
which the tax has been paid, and shall
post them up in three different places in
their school district cnce each quarter.
We would say to those owning dogs
that they had better be governed by the
