WALLA WALLA, November 18th, 1860.
Ma. EDTrOR Having recently arrived from
the heart of the far-famed Blackfoot country,
and having derived a good deal of experience
from a soiOurn Of over year and a half there,
it has occurred to me that few lines might not
be uninteresting to your readers.
Much has already been said in its favor, and
no doubt moro will continue to be said; bnt as
yet I'haye seen no report that has placed it be
yond what it really is-the richest and most ex-
tensive gold-diggings ever discovered on this
coast since the early days of California. Quartz
mills have already found their way to within a
few miles of the summit Of the eastern side Of
the Rocky mountains, and more are on their
way, having been ordered during the past sea-
son.
McClellan's Gulch, on this side, and Alder
Gulchi on the eastern slope, are as yet the rich
est placer diggings which have been discovered,
but many other gulehes, nearly if not quite as
as good are known to exist on both sides. In
Last Chance, on this side, a fine piece worth
eighteen hundred and seveuty-six dollars, was
picked up by one of the fortunate owners.
The climate during the winter, owing to the
great altitude and northern position, is of course
very severe but the working season is much
longer than many suppose, having lasted nearly
six months last year. Through the past winter
many poor fellows were severely frost-b bitten,
and having been among the number can
speak all the more feellngly. To this incident
owe my present visit to your beautiful valley,
having come for the purpose of receiving proper
medical treatment.
Last winter provisions were very high-hour
two dollars per pound, and everything else in
proportion; while the lovers of the weed we're
required to fork over a cool fifteen dollars per
pound for tobacco. But as 1 met upwards of
four thousand pack animals on the way, pre-
sumo there will be a different state of affairs
this winter.
While crossing the Spokane river or rather
just as | reached this side, l was, through the
polite attentions of gentleman commonly
known as Irish Jim, relieved of all my loose
cash and the further necessity of taking care of
my own mule, having received blew from a
stone on the left temple, which rendered me in
sensible for long time, awakening to the sad
reality that l was alone without either money,
blankets or mules. In case any of your readers
may happen to see the mule, may mention
that be is a brown one, fourteen and half hands
high, and branded on the left shoulder with the
letter A +; and at the same time | would state
that l will gladly pay any one fifty dollars. who
will return him.
Now, my dear sir having already trespassed
upon your time and space, and trusting and
firmly believing that very many will realize their
expectations in the Blackfoot country, l remain,
Very truly, yours,
PETER MILLER.

FIGHTING FOR THE SPoILs.-A fierce
warfare is now going on between the Oregon
Statesman and OregoHidn, growing out OF
the struggle for the spoils of Office. At the
coming j une election, an entire new set OF
State officers, including the Public Printer,
are to be chosen, and these two organs of
public opinion, are whetting their beaks for
the fight. The OregORian represents what
is termed the radical wing Of the Union par
ty, and it is understood to favor Gibbs for
Senator. Just now the Salesman claims to
be particularly conservative, opposes negro
suffrage, and all other isms; goes strong for
johnson, and appears to be preparing to
"Aop" on whichever side that promises to be
the strongest. The Statesman is charged
with favoring Nesmith's reelection. In the
whole of the contest between these papers,
there is nothing like principle invoked, not
even desire to serve ePublic, and being
nothing more than scramble for the the
"spoils of Office" their readers will be very
foolish if they take sides in the fight.
, 1865-11-17

IA CHANCE LoK DAIRYMEN.-It certainly
speaks poorly for the enterprise of our stock
owners and ranchnen, that they fail to fur
nish sufficient butter to meet the wants of
the market. As class, dairy men every
where are prosperous, and it is strange in
deed that larger number of stock owners
have not turned their attention to this profit
able branch of industry. Much of the butter
that is used in this market is brought from
below and is of poor quality. A good article
of home production readily commands IS
cents, and even at this figure the supply is
BY no means equal to the demand. With
thousands acres Of the best grazing land in
the world, in the immediate vicinity of our
town, it is shameful that we should depend
on the lower country for the products of the
dairy. With proper enterprise, we should
produce all the butter and cheese required
for home use, and have a surplus for ship
ment to the mines. For thorough dairymen,
men who understand the business, Walla
Walla offers fine field, and one that cannot
too soon be occupied
, 1865-11-17

"EGGs EXTRAw-Such is the announce
ment that meets the eye at our principal
hotels. In the centre of "a rich agricultural
country, with grain in abundant supply at
low figures, we think it would pay to give
more attention to the rearing of poultry.
Eggs extra" was an ordinary affair in the
early days of California, but such thing-is
unusual in farming country.
, 1865-11-17

LIvELY.-At time when the towns below
are sending up dolcrous complaints of hard
times, and in various ways endeavoring to
account for the stagnatiOn in business, it may
appear strange but it is none the less true
that we of Walla WAlla are in the iull tide
of prosperity. Go into our stores, and. we
hnd proprietors, clerks and all concerned ab-
sOrbed in the hurly burly of business. Gus
toners are being waited upon, and other Gus.
toners are waiting their turn, and so with
the constant hurry and hustle our merchants
can scarce find la moment for relaxation. So,
too, with our mechanics and tradesmen. All,
all are busy, and from morn to night noueb,
Is heard save the hum of industry. The Sc
cret Of this uOusual prosperity is readily
understood. The nearest depot of supplies
for all the more important mining districts.
Walla Walla invariably catches the cream Of
every new mining excitement. In the early
Spring, as also in the Fall, when time is
every thing, it is here that the packer fnds
1t his interest to make bis purchases, and the
trade thus established continues with us
throughout the year. Here, too, owing to
the abundance and chsapuess of fsubsisteuce.
teamsters and packers find il advantageous
to winter their animals, and 10 this vay
distribute large sums Of money in our midst.
With all these advantages in our favor. Il is
not strange that business is lively.

THE ANNEXATION QUEsTION.-A Dalles
correspondent writes US as follows "The
annexation of Walla Walla to Oregon is the
leading topic of the day. WascO, as we'll as
the adjoining counties east of the Cascades,
take the livelest interest in the matter, and
wish you to join US at the earliest moment.
On the other hand, the 'cow' counties pre-
fer to see you remain where you are. The
cause Of this is readily explained. There is
a certain rivalry existing between the Cas-
cade and Web.foot. counties as to the supre
macy Thus far the latter, by virtue Of
superior numbers, have ruled. They feal
that the annexation of Walla Walla will
throw the preponderance the other way, and
hence the opposition. The desire to control
influences both sections, and to this extent
they are open to the charge Of sel6shness. "
Our Oregon neighbOrs need give themselves
no further trouble about Walla Walla. The
projectors of tho annexation movement are
satisfied that a majority of the people living
in the Valley are opposed to the measure,
and hence have abandoned the agitation.

THE MINT-The Boise Statesman takes
a hand in the discussion Of the Mint ques-
tion, and introduces facts and figures to show
that instead of going either to the Dalles or
Portland, the institution should be located
at Boise city. There is force in the argu-
meut and the chances are that unless our
Oregon neighbOrs cease quarreling over the
question of location, they will lose the Mint
altogether. At the last session of Congress,
Thadeus Stevens, Chairman of the House
Committee on Finance, insisted that if there
was to be Mint in the Northern country it
should be located, if possible,in in the centre Of
the mining districts This proposition Mr..
Stevens enforced with great earnestness, and
had Idaho been represented by an active
and industrious Delegate, we have every
season to believe that instead of the Dalles
the law would have been so changed as 10
locate the MiHt at some point 10 the Boise
Basin. Should the question again come up
In Congress, we have little doubt that the
same argument will be used, and with an en-.
ergetic Delegate like Mr.. Holbrook to look
after the interests of Idaho, il Is more than
probable that Oregon will lose the Mint
, 1865-11-17
SoARoIrY on SuPPLIEs .-Private Ietters

received from Montana, express the opinion
that supplies will be very scarce before the
opening of the Spring trade. High prices
are expected to prevail, and those who are
fortunate enough to get their stocks in early
will be sure to have good thing. Until late
in the season it will be impossible to get in
supplies from the East, and as a consequence
the people of Montana look to this quarter
as their main dependence.

TIE Orizabd, on her last trip to Portland,
stuck fast on the "bRT." AS a result, our mer-
chants will find the item of "Hghterage {"
added to their freight bills. Without wishing
in any way to detract from the " metropolis, ;"
we have this to sRy; The merchants of Portland
should take such measures as will enable sea-
going vessels to reach their wharves or, failing
in this, Portland should be content to subside
into the position of an inland town. The COM
meree of the northern country requires that
there should be a seaport town at some point
inside the mouth of the Columbia, and if Port
land, by reason Of location, cannot occupy this
position, then let some other more eligible ioca-
ton be sought out. The rapid settlement of the
Northern country, and the immense population
to be supplied, all indicate at an early day the
necessity for a 6rst-class commercial town. 1t
is possible that by dredging out the river, and
throwing the whole current into one channel,
-sea-goihg vessels may be enabled to reach Port
land at all seasons OF the year. If this is done,
all will be we'll but in any event the trade of
ne Northern country will require a seaport
town, and if Portland fails to meet the require
nient, some other locality will be sought out.
