Horse THIEvEs.-After an absence of several
years, horse thieves have again made their ap-
pearance in this Valley, and are depredating
upon the property of honest settlers. On Fri
day last, a couple of horse thieves, who are
known respectively by the names of James
Love and VIM. Ritcbie, visited Mr.. George L.
Ruckle's ranch, on the Tum>a. Lum, and stole
two valuable American horses The thieves are
well known in that locality, and it is hoped
that the parties in pursuit will succeed in cap
turing them. Should these depredatious be
kept up, we shall not be at all surprised to
hear that one or more of the depredators have
come to grief. Our settlers have a summary
way of dealing with this class Of offenders,
and recollecting the transactions Of 1865, we
think it would be well for the thieves to seek
some other field OF operation.

PRorEcrIoS FoR SHADE TREEs.-For years we
have urged upon our citizens the importance of
planting shade trees, and thus calling nature to
aid them in the work OF heautifying their prem
ises. This advice has very generally been acted
upon, until to-day very few towns on the coast
present such picture of rural beauty as the
town of wAlla WalIa. The people who have
thus exhibited their taste are entitled to protect
ton aud encouragement, and every measure
should be taken for the protection Of the trees
and shrubbery that minister to the pleasure and
enjoyment of the passer-by quite as much as to
the actual owner. Instead of affordiug this pro.
tection the authorities have entirely ignored the
matter, and allow vicious animals to run at
large, and pull down and destroy the young
trees. A few mornings since, we counted no less
than six shade trees, on the line of Alder, be-
tween Third and Fourth streets, all of them
broken down and destroyed by cows that are al
lowed to roam at large in that locality. For the
purpose of protecting the shade trees, now so
generally planted, we think it would be we'll
for the City Council to pass an ordinance pro-
hibiting cows and horses from running at large
within the city limits. The streets were never
intended to be public grazing ground, and the
stock owner who has due regard for the comfort
of his animals, will never be found turning them
loose to feed upon the offal that lines our high
ways."Tke merciful man is merciful to his beast
and it is not this class that allow their stock to
roam around aud destroy their neiRbbors' props
erty. 1t is mainly persons who are careless and
thoughtless that leave their cattle to shift for
themselves, and this class can be taught that if
they thus offend, they can be held responsible
in damages. An ordinance of this kind would
at once arrest what may be ftly termed the
"catte nuisance" and owners of city property
would be encouraged TO 60 on and complete the
work of beautifyng our streets.

T'Ae Rich Young Marquis and
the H4eDeFS.

The Westminster Gazette announces that
the Marquis of Butte, who recently became
heir to 81 500, 600 year, out of gratitude for
his conversion to the Roman Catholic faith, is
about to found and endOw a large hospital for
lepers in Jerusalem. WhereupOn the London
Examiner observes:-
"In the case of the Marquis of Butte we were
prepared for surprises; but we confess that
this statement at first appeared to us little
too extraordinary. Why lepers Why Jeru-
salem? What hand had lepsrs in the Mar
quis' conversion TO the true faith; aid how
could he show gratitude to his priesty ad-
visers by conferriDg a favor on the subjects of
sn Eastern prince? We have been wholly
unable TO discover anything in the history of
the young Marquis, or in that of his family, to
account for this sudden resolve. 1t would be
too farfetched a theory to suggest that Robert
fba Bruce had at one time intimate relations
with the shire of Butte, and That his dying Of
leprosy may have implanted in the Stewart
family an hereditary compassion for persons
suffering from that disease, Or is the Marquis
aiming at a parable, and representing by the
admission of these Outcasts into safe asylum
his own reception into the bosom OF the
Mother CburohP II so, this touching picture
of his forlorn condition, previous to the happy
event of his conversion, must awaken sympa-
thy and pity, and must teach us all lesson

sand a day, was in rather afortunate position

We took II for granted that he had sound
digestion, q good conscience, aud the easy
temper incident to large muscular devslop
ment; while IL was clear that out of E300 600
a-year, one might procure a tolerable share OF
the luxuries OF life. But that was a merely
superficial and hasty Interpretation of the
position.
"We could have wished that the Marquis
OF Bute's gratitude for his conversion mad
taken another direction and another form
lis 1t a time TO receive money asked the pro-
phet who cured the Syrian captain, 'and to
receive garments, and Oliveyards and vine
yards, and sheep and oxen, aud men servants
and maid. servants p Having made Naaman
whole, he sent him, and his talents Of silver,
and his provisions, home to his own land,
having a notion that they would speedily be
wanted there We trust that the Marquis of
Butte was not driven into expendiDg his abuu-
dant checks upon Syrian lepers through any
notion that all the avenues of philanthropy in
England were blocked up by superfuous cha
rity. If any suoh idea has entered his brain
which, we should imagine from other things,
was perhaps a trfs toe readily receptive-we
beg him to exercise ii at once Although there
may be among us foundations that are rendered
fTuitless, and endowments that are wholly
perverted, there is not the less call upon
those whose purse is full and whose heart is
sympathetic for wide and judiciOus benevo-
lence. the pauperlsm OF Englaud Is wonder
in the eyes of the civilized world; yet English
wealth, and honor, and power, are too often
contrasted abroad with the extreme degrada-
tion and abect misery of our impoverished
classes. W. do not grudge any institution of
charitable kind to the leprous wretches that
lie about the plains at the foot of the meuu-
tains of Judah; nor are we of opinion that
England is likely to suffer much, one way or
other. even We're the Marquis of Butte to enter
the Romish priesthood and swell the bulk Of
Peters pence with the whole of his fortune.
We only venture to express a hope that the
young and noble convert does not imagine the
labor of charity in England to be played out,
simply because his brother Marquis has, ap-
psrently, monopolized one section of the phi
lanthropic work. Even as it is, beggary is
too much for Lord Townshend."
