A QUEsTIoN.-A Portland paper
speaks of Hon. H. G.. Struve as
"President of the Upper House Of
the Washington Territory Legisla
ture." We think this is, to say the
least, questionable. The gentleman
from Clark was elected to preside
over the Cou6cil at the session of
l867-'68, but we question whether
this election holds for the session just
commencing. Personally we have
no objection to Mr.. s. holding the
office, but we think he will find it
necessary to again submit bis claims
to a vote of his fellow members. If
the other construction prevails. all
the old officers, including Richard
Lane, will hold over, and this suits
US exactly.

HoMRsTEADs.-We notice that Chas.
E. Williams, large real estate owner,
at the town of Olympia, proposes to sell
bis lots on the homestead plan, giving
purchasers one year in which to make
payments at fixed monthly rates. We
think that owners of real estate at Wal!a
Walla might take hint from this, and
dispose of their lots iu such a way as to
enable persons of small means to become
purchasers. The moment q man be-
comes the owner of real estate in q
town that moment he becomes Interests
ed 10 its permanent prosperity and to
that extent as q better citizen.

GRAND JuRY.-The Grand Jury, as
empaneled and sworn in, is as follows :;
D. s. Baker, lessee Drumheller, Wm.
Walter, ]. Sailing, ]. D. Knight, Jacob
Kibler, 4. BatemAu, William Winnett,
J. M, Lamb, A. Lafevre, Phil. Denehey,
W. H. Bender, j. B. Gardner, Wm. Liz
enby, VIM. Moore, E. G. Clark. 10 the
interest of taxpayers, we suggest to
these gentlemen that whilst they make
due preseutment of all crimes that come
to their knowledge, that they take care
not to lend themselves to frivolous pros
ecutions. In all communities men are
to be found who willsneak in at the
back door of jury rooms, and prefer
charges that they would never make 10
the light Of open day. Charges thus
made usually fade away when scrutin-
lied in open Court, but the result is to
fastenI unnecessary expenses upon the
county. 1t would be good regulation
to require the party making a complaint
which is not sustained, foot the bill, but
our statute has no provision of this kind,
and the result is the county is frequent
ly called on to pay heavy bills of costs
on cases that never ought to have been
brought into Court. The Grand Jury
can do much toward checking this evil,
and 10 the interest of tax payers we ask
the members to closely sift every CONS
plant, and when there is reason to be
lieve that it cannot be sustained, prompt
ly dismiss it.

LOCAL BANK.-We understand that q
couple of Eastern gentlemen, with ample
capital, are now here for the purpose of
making arrangements to open a bank of
discount and deposit. There is an
opening here for an institution of the
kind, and we trust that the parties will
receive such encouragement as will in-
duce them to locate in our midst. The
business of lending money already ocS
cupies large amount of capital, but it
is conducted in such a way as to be a
serious tax upon borrowers. A regular
bank would at once FIX reasonable rates
of interest, and drive the small Shylocks
out of the market, or force them to lend
their money at rates that would enable
their customers to live. Either this, or
they would invest their means in i'm
provements, and thus become a benefit
rather than a curse to the country.

DIVISION THE CAUSE OF DEFEAT.
"A dispatch to the New York World
says there is strong probability that
the result of the election in Texas

democratic candidate for GoverhSf.

rupture between Davis and Hamilton

SUIT AGAINST THE OLD COLLECTOR OF
THIS PORT-THE STATUTE OF LIM1TAT1oS
AND DELINQUENT OFFICEHOLDERs.-The
Federal Government has instituted suit in
the United States circuit court against the
securities of the late Colonel William NJ.
Harrison, formerly collector of the port Of
Richmond, for the recovery OF certain funds
belonging to the United States in his pos
session at the outbreak of the war. The
money was, of course, turned over to the
Confederate Government after the secession
of Virginia. Colonel Harrison's securities
were William F. Richie, Larkin W. Glaze
brook, and R. 0. Haskins. Mr.. Glazebrook
is now dead Mr.. Richie resides in New
York.
This is one of the many suits brought by
the Government against delinquent Office
holders to which the decision of Chief JUS
tice Chase, at the last term OF the United
States circuit court for this district, seems
to apply. In the case of the United States
Us. John +. Wiley, delinquent office
holder, the defendants counsel pleaded the
statute Of limitations as bar TO the pro-
ceedings. The court decided the point well
taken, Notwithstanding the intervening
years during which the United States Co
vernmcnt was not recognized nor its laws
enforced in this State, and directed that
the suit he dismissed and the obligations OF
the defendant discharged.

Mr.. JONI AMELrR SMTH.-Some week
or two since paragraph appeared in the
local department of this paper stating that
an Indictment had been made against this
gentleman by the grand jury OF Charles
City county for the exhibition Of obscene
pictures. We have just seen that indict-
ment, and find that it does not sustain the
statement. 1t makes no charge about
pictures Mt all and the charge that is
made is altogether misunderstanding to
be treated with contempt by any jury OF
court in any community whatever. We
are sure that the accusation was brought
under momentary excitement, and are salts
fed that it can receive no consideration
whatever at the hands of the court or the
people Of Charles City.

DIRECT TRADE.-The British bark Clara
is now receiving at the Richmond dock a
cargo Of 10000 bushels of wheat bought in
this market for Liverpool, England. This
looks like business, and, we believe, is the
first direct shipment of wheat for Europe
from this port since the war. Indeed, we
do not remember that any wheat has ever
before been shipped to Europe direct from
this port. This shipment was made by
Charles Howard on foreign orders. \ large
amount of wheat has already been shipped
this season from Richmond for Europe ria
