The NATIONAL GAME.-NeW England
is again excited over match games that are
being played between rival base ball clubs.
Thousands of persons turn out to witness
the games.
The Sentinel on the Border" paper
of the Brick PomerOy style, published at
Louisville, Kentucky, has given up the
ghost. Such papers only serve to injure a
good cause.
Ben. DITTEs, one of the founders of the
Montana Post, and latterly its sole proprietor,
has sold the paper to the Union Central
Committee of the Territory. The Post, out
side of its politics, is az excellent paper.

WHAT IT CosT.-The Government has
expended fifteen hundred million dollars in
forcing negro suffrage upon the Southern
States The whole of this enormous sum
comes out of the pockets of the Northern
taxpayers.
DR.. joins BULL, of Louisville, Kentucky,
Of Sarsaparilla fame, had an income last year
of over 100000, the largest by far of any
in that city-knowing ones declare, it results
from liberal advertising, and placing yourself
and business before the public.

REPUDIATE HIM-A gentleman who is
thoroughly posted, informs us that not a
single jew in San Francisco will vote for U.
S. Grant. His order excluding the Jews
as class, has arrayed that whole people
with all their vast wealth against him.

MORE HERoDs.-The fashionable hotels
in the Northern States advertise that guests
UiA children 0W not be receiUed. Criminal
P abortions, infanticidc and other similar h0r,
rible crimes are rife there already, and such
bids as that will cause their greater spread.

NAVIGATION OF THE Missouri The
steamer Deer Lodge has made her second
trip from St. Louis to Fort Benton, and is
expected to make her third trip before the
close of the season. This is something new
in the history of the naviga ton of the Upper
Missouri.
JUDGE BELL, of Texas, leading and emi-
neut citizen, who at one time held seat on
the supreme bench of that State, was recently
a candidate for the chairmanship of the
Union League, at Austin, and was defeated
by negro. Other things being even, the
radicals give the darkey the preference.

THE NoMINATIONs.-Our old friend, Sam
Linkton, writes from San Francisco, that
the nominations of Seymour and Blair arc
well received, and that the ratification meet
ings have been the largest and most enthus
astic ever held in the State. California is
good for fifteen thousand majority for Sey,
mour and the Union.

PLANTING TREES Wisconsin has a law
which we would like to see applied to Walla
Walla Valley, 1t provides that if farmer
plants row Of trees along the road, he is
exempt from working on the road, and any
one who hurts a tree is fined s.. Besides
this the State Horticultural Society offers a
premium of 500 for TIE best ten acres of
forest trees, and $50 for the second best

WE learn from letter from Washington,
dated July 18th, that B. +. Dennison had
been confirmed as one of the Judges of this
Territory. Judge Hewitt was then at the
Capitol, but would leave that week for the
Pacific coast. The letter does not state what
the Chief Justice had accomplished by hi:
mission, but we are left to infer that ever
radical Congrcssmen paid no attention tt
his driveling.
DOG LAw.-On reference to the printed
volume Of the statutes we find that the do,
law passed at the last session of the Legis
lature is made to apply to Walla Wall
county. This is mistake. In the Council
the bill was amended SO as TO exempt thi
county from the operation Of the law, an
the amendment was concurred in by tb
House The mistake most likely occurre
in enrolling the bill.
