MILITARY SALUTE.-A salute was hred
at sunset, on Thursday evening, in honor Of
the arrival Of General Steel, Commander OF
this military department 1t is understood
that Gen s. is here for the purpose of decidl
ing whether Fort Walla Walla shall be con-
tinued as a military post. Orders have all
ready been issued for the abandonment of
a number Of military establishments within
the limits cf the Department, it being the
intention of the Government to retain only
such posts as may be necessary for protestion
against Indian outrages With regard to
the post at this point, the question is
whether it shall be retained as supply de-
pot! Large quan titles of -four are now being
shipped from below for the supply of posts
in the Indian country which could have been
bought in this market at figures more favor
able to the Government than was paid at the
place of purchase. So, too, the barley aud
oats required for cavalry horses can always
Re contracted for in this Valley at lower fig
ures than the same articles can be laid down
for from below. All the arguments of an
economic character are in favor of the reten'
ton Of Fort Walla Walla as supply depot
Considerations of this character cannot fai
to have weight with Gen. Steel in determin
ing the question Of the abandonment or Ie
tention of Fort Wala Walla, aud acting In
the interest of the Government there is every
reason to believe that his decision will be IL
accordance with the views here set forth.

THa WIND River MoUNTAINs.-Mr. Patterson
an old resident of this Basin, the founder Of the
Salt Lake Express in 1868, left this place last
March 40 search Of the diggings of the French
men, whose reported discoveries made some
stir here last winter. The Frenchman's dig
gings proved to be fbiik, " but Mr.. Patterson
continued his explorations still further eastward,
and after a trip, of i've months returned to Idaho
City for reinforcements. The field more partc-
ularly explored is in the Wind River Mountains,
on the waters of one of the tributaries Of Snake
River, and not far from the head Of Green River
With only single friend, Mr.. Patterson pene-
trated these mountains, and prospected for sew
eral weeks as well his limited tools would per-
nit. He found an extensive basin, well water
ed, lying at the head of Snake River, with
plenty Of washed gravel, quartz &c, With apan
be found some good prospects. Before be could
satisfy himself of the true character of the coun
try, he fell in with some Indians, Crows aud
Flatheads-wno showed anything but friendly
designs. These Indians were at war with the
BAnnaeks, and ranging through the Bannack
Territory. Mr.. Patterson and his associate were
Obliged to leave in a hurry. The only evidence
OF the presence Of white men in that country was
seen by Mr.. Patterson while on hls retreat. 1t
was prospect hole, in which the bodies of four
men had been thrown - whether white men or
Indians is not known. Mr.. Patterson says be
could never leave this Territory satisfied Withs
out knowing more of this country. He has got
ten up company Of fifty men, who leave next
Wednesday to continue the exploration. .-IdahO

Show us the man that does not like
hoops-tilting hoops-and we will

would shut out the glorious vision
from his fellow man, and bid him
grope below, nor turn his rapturous
gaze to things above. Hoops-tilting

still cling to thee, still sound thy praise

1t is the settled purpose of the trail
tors at the North, and the rebels of the
South, to involve this country in an
other bloody war and this they aim to
do during the next two years, under
the lead of Andrew johnson. An at

A Surveyor General, and deputy and
land office for each county in the rebel
States, and n few bayOnets to guard
them, are all that will be required.
Brownlow should recollect that the
war he and his Puritan followers are
trying to inaugurate, will not, if pro
voked and precipitated, be any thing
like the one lately closed. To quote
from the Montgomery Advertiser,
whatever may have been the differences
Of opinion in the past, between the
North and the South, the latter, at
least, will be arrayed on the side of
law, order, peace, the Constitution and
the government, and a faithful adhe-
renee to her professions, and if ever
forced by memorable circumstances to
participate in a second conflict, will
unhesitatingly rally to the mainten-
ance of all these
