Death of the Hon. Ben. M. samuels.

The Hon. Ben. M. samuels, one Of the most
able Democrats In Iowa, is dead. He was a
candidate for Governor in 1857, and was a
prominent Douglas delegate In the Charleston
Convention. He was forty years of age, and
le,ves swife and four children to lament his
death. The Dubuque (Iows) Herald, In MOTTO.

both at home and abroad, whe ther you would support
Mr.. Vallandigham and what your opinions were In re-

The Election in walla walla.

Never was there a more determined sPr-

IS as displayed by the Democracy of this
precinct on election day. Men who had
heretofore been satisfied with merely going
to the polls and voting, and then return
ing to. their places of business, on last
Monday spent tie entire day in doing good
service for the ticket; and never has it been
our lot to witness more universal feeling
among Democrats TO go in and win" than
was then exhibited. Without any special
organization or assigned duty, every man
seemed to work as though the result of the
election depended upon his individual ex-
ertions, and each put his shoulder to the
wheel and pushed with will seldom man
tested in any cause. They were determined

with no hin that will require teams to double
1t undoubtedly shortensehr distance from Walla
Walla to Powder river valley forty miles, and
avoids that king of all hills on the old road from

commodaiions sufficiently comfortable for hose

left Walla Walla about 8 O'Clock. on the
18Th June and made Edeled springs about sun
down the sans day The ne~' day pitched camp
near Hrndershot's, in Grand Ronde valley, and
about 10 o'clock the succeeding day passed the
junction of the roads, which estimate to be
about one hundred and ten miles from Walla
Walh. by vayof the old road and about seventy
by the new road. -rr. q
A great many are deluded by false representa-
