The Other slde of lhe Ploture.

We would advise some of our citizens who
are suffering so severely from the White
Pine fever, to pause for moment and take
peep at the dark side of the picture, before
leaving their comfortable homes and break
ing up their business, and we think they will
come to the conclusion that the chances are
not all in favor of stumbling upon big for
tune in that locality. There are plenty of
good lands and resources right here at home
for every one to make comfortable and easy
living, without taking any " desperate chan,
ces, if the proper amount Of energy aud iu-
dustry is brought to bear, and We see no good
reason for making such wild-goose chases
after imaginary wealth until the fabulous
reports from that section are better known
aud Substantiated than they are at present.
If White Pine is as rich as it is reported,
there will be plenty Of silver there for all
hands year or so hence, aud if it is hum
bug, you will be better of by keeping away
altogether. Here is what gentleman, now

THE PFC DRivER.-A private letter from
Washington, dated March 18th, states that
an effort is being made to have " old Anders
son Cox" appointed Governor of Washing
ton Territory. The principal obstacle in the
way is Philip Ritz, who claims that on the
score of decency the " the old pig driver " is
entirely unfit for the place. Ritz's head is

ED1rOR srArssMAx:-As Florence appears to
be without correspondent, thought that l
would write and inform you that 1t still exists,
and also add few items.
The mill of the Florence Company has been
10 full blast since last December, and has been
running since then without single interruption,
day and night. They have 6ne looking rock,
which averages $loo per ton, and well defined
ledge. Their shaft is seventy-two feet deep, and
the vein widens as they proceed in depth. They
employ ls-men. The mill is ably superintended
BY E. K. Patterson, Esq, who is always about
the mill, and as jolly as an /" old tar.n
One of the mill boys lately captured a strange
looking animal, which, for want of better
name, they have called the "Rackabeebob p
they are of opinion that it is a cross between a
mountain lion-and gray wolf. If it were sent
to Bsrnum it would create greater sensation
than his famous What.is.it."
Messrs. Deasey, Merritt & Co. are busy putting
in bed rock fiume 10 Gold Lake, and are run
ming tunnel through hill of solid rock; they
expect to be ready to take out the precious metal
early next summer. They deserve great credit
for their energy and perseverance,, and Is isto be
hoped that they will reap rich harvest for their
industry.
The placers in this camp are BY no means
worked out there is plenty Of ground here that
will pay from Sc to So yer day to the hand, and
outsiders are beginning to find it out. Last
winter only eight men wintered here; this win
ter we bave thirty SO you see that we are steadily
on the increase.
The quartz proving a success here will induce
others TO open their lodges, and we will soon
have other mills erected. Florence is looming
up and will yet flourish, and iu few years will
rank second to none in the Territory.

The DARIEN CANAL.-The treaty made
by Gen. Gushing, with the Government of
Columbia, comedies to the United States the
exclusive right to construct an inter- oceanic
canal across the Isthmus of Darieu, at any
point which may be selected by the United
States. The Columbian Government cedes
six miles of land on each side of the canal,
one-half for its own benefit and the other
half for the party undertaking the construc-
ton of the work. The Columbian Govern
ment is to receive 10 per cent of the net
revenue for the first 10 years, and after the
canal is paid for 25per cent. of the net pro-
fits. The treaty is to be ratified by the
United States within ten months after the
surveys to be made within two years, after
the ratification the canal begun within Eve
years and finished within fifteen years after
the ratification, otherwise the charter fails.
The charter runs for one hundred years. The
canal is to be under the control of the United
States, and Congress can fix the rates of
toll. Navigation is to be open to all nations
in time of peace, and closed to belligerents
who may seek to avail themselves of its ad,
vautages. 1t is estimated that the canal
will cost Sl00,000,000.

THE Democratic State Committee Of Con.
necticut has issued an address to the people
which has the true ring of patriotism.
Proudly referring to the past record of the
candidates which they present, they ask the
freemen of the State to join with them in
preserving intact the integrity of their instit-
utons. To do this, say the committee, it
is not only necessary to elect your Guberna-
torial candidate, but it is a duty which you
owe to him to provide fair working major
ity in the General Assembly The commit
tee allude to the disgraceful conduct which
has ever characterized the proceedings of the
radical Congress, and trust that the people
will stamp that tody with the seal Of popu.

as follows: 1t is four years since the war
was terminated-since a hand was lifted
against the authority of the Federal Govern
ment 1t is time, then, that the attention
of the people was turned from the dead past
to the living present-from issues that are
no longer vital, to those that come home to
every mans door. First of all, our national
debt must be paid. The honor of the coun-
try demands 1.-THE people demands it.
Aud to this end they demand an honest and
economical administration Of our affairs

Cor The INsIDE.-As far as heard from,
the republican conventions in all the counties
in the Territory have instructed in favor of
Gar6ede for Congress. The Olympia Tri-
June, heretofore a bitter opponent, comedies
his ntmination, and says thatit now becomes
the duty of republicans to cease opposition
and do all in their power to strengthen the
man who is to be their candidate. The van
couver Register follows suit, and gives in its
adhesion to the silver tongued orator.
1t now seems as though neither Flanders or
Baker will be named at the Caquato Con-
vention. We sympathize with these distin-
guished radicals in their disappointment.
Those who know Gar6elde will regard it as
somewhat strange that the most inveterate
"poker player" " in the Territory is selected
to represent the "party of high moral idea" "
