tracts more than usual attention. The
names Of the various persons who are willing
to serve the "dear people" will be found in
our Advertising columns, and from the array

MAJOR GENERAL SrEEL.-We have it on rela-
81. authority that Major General Steel, the dis
,pgushed officer now in command of the De-
'yartment of Columbia, may be expected to visit
Walla Walla at an early day. We trust that
arrangements will be made to give him recep-
lion that will in measure indicate the high re-
gsrd u which he Is held by our people. Iu the
war for the Union General Steel bore a conspic-
nous part, ,sand in bonoring him we shall horor
one Of our country most heroic defenders

Of the Steamboat "4G' on the Upper Columbia,
passed through this city on his way ur a few
days ago. lie informed US that the boat would
in all probability start for the new mines above,
On or before the lCth of April. The ice, he had

date sufficient to admit the passage of the steam
sr, Persons Intending to go to the new mines
can therefore govern themselves in starting ac-
coriiugy.
TIE WEATHER With occasional inter-
Tals, the weather in this valley continues
cold and amp. Occasionally we have a
glimpse of the sun, but this is the except>
tion, and for the most part we have weather
that would do credit 10 the wcb>fsot coun>
try, or any other inhospitable climate. With
:hePeoPle of this valley it is virtually "Win-
ter lingering in the lap CT Spring"
