Tia Delegate of Idaho Territory.

The opinion is entertained 10y many that
GOV. Wallace's term, as Delegate to Congress
from Idaho Territory. expired with the late
session Of Congress. We understand this to
be the view TAKEN Of the matter by the late
Legislature Of Idaho, anu i, provided for the
election Of Delegate on the first Monday OF
September next. This view Of the matter we
believe to be erroneous, and that Col. Wal
lace is entitled to hold his seat until the end
of the present Congress.
The 18th section Of the organic act Of Ida
no provides. THAT a Delegate shall be elect
ed for f,ro years etc. "prov!d"d, that the
Delegate first elected shall hold his seat only
during the term OF the Congress to which he
shall be elected" Now the whole matter
rests upon the technical meaning of the word
term, as applied to Congress. II it is synon-
amous with session, the term Of office has now
expired. If, however, it is construed to mean
Mc Congress. as we believe it was Intended
that it should be, Gov. Wallacc's term does
not expire until the 4,h of March next. He
was elected last October. and but for the pro-
vso his term of two years would not expire
until October co, constituting him member
of the new Congress from the 4th Of March
next until October following. TWAS to guard
against this that the proviso was incorporated.
The construction pnced upon it by many with
whom We have conversed, would defeat the
very object contemplated. The member to be
elected this Fall will commence lis term on
the 4:h of March next, with the new Congress,
aud serve for two years. or until the 4tl' OF
March, 1867, while the first Delegate, Col.
Wallace, will serve but sixteen or seventeen
months. In speaking of the reelection of a
person to Congress We say, his second, third,
or fourth term, meaning of Congressman SEES
sion. A Congress is made up of two, and
sometimes three sessions, constituting techni-
cally one term, or one Congress. If the ques-
ton is raised in Congress. on contest for the
seat, we believe our view of the matter will be
sustained.

SATU RDAY MORNING, AUG. 6. 1861.
The News,

The Eastern news since our last publca-
ton has been more than usually exciting.
The announcement of regularly organized
conspiracy in the States under the leadership
of Nallandg!iam, does not surprise us in the
Least, for we have long been satisfied of the
existence Of such an organization. The only
reason they have not openly avowed their
treason, by rising up in arms against the Gov
eminent has been that they knew million
Union League men were ready to meet force
with force As long as Union men do their
duty, no danger is to be apprehended from
this REASONABLE organization. Wherever
they are known to exist, their movements
should be watched. and the first overt act of
treason promptly punished. 1t is evident
the rebels expect substantial aid from the
North, or they would not persist in the
invasion Of Northern soil, where they have no
chance of accomplishing anything that will
inure to their advantage unless they are joined
remembered that it was said by their friends
when they left Maryland few Gays ago that
they would return in larger force, which they
are reported to have done $4,000, strong.
They have not, however, realized their expec-
tations, further than to pillage and destroy
great deal of property. A careful reading
Of the dispatches will satisfy any one that
nothing serious is to be apprchended from the
invasion of Pennsylvania. The probability is
that they will be severely punished before they
get back to Richmond
1t will he seen that Grant is steadily ap-
preaching Richmond, and although he may
have failed to hold all the enemv's works he
has carried by assault, it is evident that he
has secured substantial advantages over Lee
within the la It eight OR ten days. One thing
is certain, Lee has not been able to drive him
from any position he has seen fit 10 contest.
Everything is prospecting under Sherman in
Georgia. Although it appears that he has not
captured Atlanta, he has cut all communica-
ton, and has tho rebel army correlled in the
city. He has waged terrible slaughter within
the past few days, our army having buried
over three thousand of the rebel dead, which
they left upon the field
The feeling in the money market at the
East is improving. There is growing conf
dencc in Fessenden's management Of the
Treasury. We have seen letter from Sena-
tor Harding in which he says, ga better Sc
lection for the position could not have been
made

Was this tho reason our contemporary was
"silent" during the whole canvass Or did
he really irish the Union ticket defeated?
The nice little plan to charge the defeat of
any or all the Union nominees upon the Sur
veyor Gsn'l is possibly more generally known
than you are aware. What care certain pro-
fessionally Union men for the success of Un-
ion principles, if by sacrificing them their per-
sonal ends are advanced, or stumbling
block removed from their path!

Tne Octavia, though a small boat, is IN

Mr.. Kennards intention, in constructing
her, to use the very best material and
workmanship throughout, thus making
his yacht triumph of American skill and
workmanship, and in this he has thus far
succeeded most admirably. The boat is
built of oak, upon the exact model Of the
| Great Eastern. Her lines combine beauty,
spsed, and strength, most excellently, and
she will prove one of the handsomest as
well as the swiftest aud staunchest boats
OF the sort ever constructed. Her burthen
