GEN. BANKS IN COMMAND OF THE
GULF DEPARTMENT.
The readers Of the journal were surprised
by the news that Gen Banks
relieved Gen. Butler Of bis command at New
Orleans The reason for this change are
best known to the war department. We
have great confidence in the executive ability
and discretion Of Gen. Banks. His expert
ence in political civil and military affairs is
large his record as a statesman as poll
tician and as a soldier, are perhaps as unexcep-
,ionable as that Of any public man in the
country And we have no reason to look for
reyerses TO our arms or growing sympathy
with rebellion in the department Of the Gulf
so long as Gen. Banks has the command.
The New Orleans Delta after referring to
his previous successes closes an article upon
his assumption Of this command as follows:

Mr.. EDITOR On my application to
the officers Of the Land ofice-temporarily
removed here-I was referred to Mr..
Parker, Republican candidate for Audi
tor, and l discovered that he gave about as
much attention to electionetring purposes
as to attending to the business of the Land
Office. AS Mr.. Parker is remunerated for
his services to the Register and Receiver,
he should attend to that business exclu-
sively I believe Messrs. Fletcher and
Brown to be gentlemen and desirous of ia
cilitating the people in adj djusting their land
matters, and do not think they are aware
of the manner in which their official SER
vices are being prostituted
Numerous applications mere made with
in the past few months by citizens of this
county to the officers of the land office to
have them remove their Office here tempo
rarily to enable settlars to secure titles
At different times sufficient sums we're prof
fered by the best men Of the country to pay
in liberal way all necessary expenses. 1t
seems that no satisfactory arrangement
could be made until after the Union Con-
vention" at Vancouver, of which Mr. Parker

and announced to the people that HE had
induced the land officers to come up here
and was responsible for their expenses, and
requested settlers upon public lands to
subscribe to a paper giving $40 to pay
these officers for their expenses, when the
said officers had already stated and written
to our county surveyor that IS would COW
er all expense of the removal of the Office
Now have not, nor has any citizen of this
county, any objections to the Register and
Receiver being paid in full for their servi-
ces; in fact, think they deserve more COM
pensation from the Government than they
receive from it, and we are willing to assist
them, but we do most solemnly protest
against paying money for republican cleo
tioneering purposes. -.-
AS Messrs. Fletcher & Brown will re-
ceive about $4,000 for the temporary re-
moval of the land office. Is it not courtesy
to us, that they correct the impression that
Messrs. Parker and Raynor were the means
of the temporary removal of the Land Office
here, aud acknowledge that they only de-
sired proper compensation for expenses,
which expenses are being met in liberal
way. PRE-EMPToR.

THE WASHINGTON STATESMAN
SATURDAY MORNING, JULY IL, 1853
The War News.

The war news still continues to come to
us unfavorable to the Federal arms. II
appears that Lee has been having it pretty
much all his own way in his movements
in Pennsylvania and Maryland. Hooker
has been relieved of the command of the
army of the Potomac and Gen. Meade is
announced as his successor. He has never
been prominently before the public, and
little can be said of him. We can orIv
hope that he will be more successful than
Hooker has been. Mcclellan was greatly
denounced as being too slow, but his sue
eessors, it would appear have all been too
fast. The dispatches have told us over and
over again that the army of the Potomac
sis in excellent fighting condition" and
yet it has suffered defeat in every engage
ment since Mcclellan retired from the
command. Even "fruitless victories are
better than disastrous defeats. We are in
favor of cautious commanders who have
ability, rather than the impulsive sort who
have no ability.
The accounts from Port Hudson are dis
couraging. Gen. Banks has at least the
merit of perseverance, but he has not been
successful. The reduction of Port Hudson
may be considered abandoned for the pres
ent, as the news states that Banks ordered
final charge on the works which was to-
tally unsuccessful.
ROsecrans is reported to be moving
South.
Gen. Grant seems to be proceeding eau
tiously at Vicksburg and with considerable
hope of capturing the place.
The insurgents in Indiana are becoming
formidable, and if the movement is not
speedily checked it may spread like a
plague throughout the North Such un-
lawful organizations cannot but be looked
upon as the harbingers of woe. Whatev-
er their grievances may be, the seditious
course of these cOnscription resisters must
be condemned by every Union man. Our
Government is tottering on the brink
will the patriotism of the people uphold it?

ing next morning for Olympia, ]eft with MIR. W. A.
Mix the money due Reynolds, in gold dust at cur
rent rates, deducng, of course, the amount OF the
error. nrn tHn .u grHrna
Mr.. Mix told me that he tender ed the money,
but Reynolds refused to make the correction and
take what was justly due him, saying th't be bad py
receipt upon settlement and that might help my
self. While was absent Reynolds stated generally
that he expected W ould pay him in Legal tenders
when came home; but that if did he had it in
his power toinjure TO the amount Of four five
thousand dollars. and that he would turn the water
from my mill, &c. At the last court he sued me- in
my absence and got Judgment which did, in the
face of all the threats he made, pay in legal ton

same thing urderlike circumstances.
Reynolds ntimatcs that be has been treated with
ingratitudc BY me- and that he accommodated me
with s., 600 from motives of love This intimation
will be properly appreciated by those who are prac-
tcally acquainted with his phlanthrophy. This
transaction was purely business one in which
Reynolds was well remunerated and fully got value
received.
AS further evidence Of Reynolds dishonesty, he
holds note Of mine for $500 which has been paid by

am still in debt to him. Any person purchasing this
note will do at their risk, and Reynolds is in

hill position throughout the Territory. -
Mr.. Raynor said he was in favor of send
ing mules down into the Southern States
to fight the rebels, or words to that effect.
Raynor's position, when summed up, is
about as consistent as DR.. Kinneys. The
Rev. gentleman is for all measures and is
an abohtionist finally. The DR.. is for all
measures and is disunionist after ALL
We have as riuch respect for the position
of the one as for the other of these two
would be Delegates-which is just none at
all; and that because we believe their doc
trines, if carried out in practice would bring
about that worst of all things, the final
separation of States.
What Mr.. Raynor lacks in political
knowledge he endeavors to make up in
bawling the little he does know at the
top of his voice He seemed determined to
make an impression on the minds of his
audience by the vehemence of his gestures
and the power of his lungs. He desired
very much to go to Congress He would
do anything, he would do everything for
the people if they would elect him. He
had built house somewhere, several years
ago, in this Territory. but didn't exactly
know whether that should entitle him to
any claims upon the people or not
Mr. Cole took the stand and made short,
pointed speech-he having the closing re-
marks by agreement. He would not prom
ise to do as much as Mr. Raynor had, if
elected Under the embarrassing circum-
stances in which our country is now
placed. financially, he did not think it
would be prudent to ask Congress to ap-
propriate money for building Railroad
from Vancouver to Puget Sound, as R.
had said he would; but would do what he
could towards getting Military Road
opened from Wallula to Puget Sound =
That was something which was absolutely
~ AA~N' 4N4 -4iAAA'"Ag PU4 hOoOS' AAO odiU
while he would not expect to accomplish
as much favorable legislation for the Ter
ritory as Mr.. Stephens did during his term
of Office, he certainly could not do less
than Mr.. Wallace had done He was not
in favor Of sending ''mules to fight the reb-
els because he thought they could be
put to much better service in packing to
the mines; but he stood squarely upon the
Democratic Union platfoi m and was in ia
vor of using all constitutional means for
the suppression of the rebellion. In con-
clusion, he hoped the audience would go
to the polls on election day and vote
sound Union ticket.
At the close of the meeting there was
great applause. Some one proposed to
give three cheers for the regular democrat
ic nominee, and they were given with
will for George E. Cole. The audience
then dispersed, leaving Rev. 10. sitting in
his chair almost obliyious of passing events.
