In this part Of our highly favored land,

come nigh us, though some States of the
Union have not been entirely free from
that much dreaded scourge the Asialic
Cholera.
The farming lands in this Territory
have brought forth abundantly, and pro-
pitious harvest has crowned our labor.
For these blessings, most earnestly en-

of this Territory, to meet together in their
several places Of worship, and there render
due praise and thanksgiving to God, for
all his mercirs and bencfits. would al
so recommend the people to humble aud
devoutly implore the Supreme Ruler to
grant to our National Councils, and the
whole population, that Divine Wisdom,
which alone can lead the North unto the
ways of al good.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto
set my hand, and caused the seal
l.. ST. of the Territory Of Washington to be
hereunto affixed

We place At the head Of our col
umns TO day tie name Of WILLIAM
MITCHELL, Esq, the National Union
candidate for Councilman Of the dis
trict of Lewis and Thurston. In
this community, more properly we
might say Territory, it is needless to
peak Of that gentleman, for he is
well known as one of our most
steady, reliable, and best of citizens.
Coming hither while yet youth, he
mas worked his way by integrity and
ndustry to competency, and there
&c few among us who, meeting with
- much success, have at the same
me earned SO high place i'll the
l.opular esteem. His faithfulness
nd skill in his individual pursuits
re the best criterion of competency
manage the public business about
o be entrusted to his care, unsolicit-
ed by himself; indeed it was only
after urgent persuasion of many
friends that his consent was obtain
ed that his name should be placed
before the district convention. In
Mr.. MITCHELL we find the old JEFF
fersonian recommendations to office
in their fullest measure" honesty
and capability."
But proud as we are of Mr.. MIrcH-
ELL for his spotless character as a
citizen, we can as fcarlcssly appeal
for popular support to his political
record. A democrat in his political
antecedents, but not bitter partisan,
he yielded a willing support to the
war measures Of the Government in
it's suppression of tie rebellion, and
to-day he stands for the Union of all
the States, the maintenance of the
supremacy and integrity of the Fed
eral Constitution throughout the Ma
ton, a Union in which, in thirty-six
States law shall be respected and the
citizens thereof shall be guaranteed
all their constitutional rights. Nom
mated by large majority, entitled
to the respect of his fellow-citizcns
for his past aud present political in
dividual record, the nomination of
Mr.. MITCHELL is but the harbingcr
of his triumphant election.

change in that branch of the pub

that his clerks and employees are Sc

tises in to-day's paper for classes in

rare opportunity to such of our
people as desire to acquire either of
those languages or to perfect them-

Professor to be thoroughly compe-
tent, and therefore bespcak for him
the patronage of the public.
