BAKERS PANORAMA.-This work of
art was exhibited on Monday aud Tues
day evening in this place, and on Wcdnes-
day evening at Tumwater, to very fair au-
diences The scenes were, in the main,
very creditable-especially so those repre-
scnting points on the Columbia river, and
a few on the Sound. The picture of this
place, however, was most cxecrable. No
one would recognize it as a representation
of our beautiful town. 1t spears upon
canvass as if situated upon hillside, with
a vast forest towering above all. The Cap
itol and Town Hall are depicted as Gothic
structures-the first at the head of Long
Bridge, and the other on the water front,
with no intervening buildings of any sort.
Swantown Bridge looks like a foot-bridgc
leading into swamp, while Long Bridge
is deprived Of half its length to make it fit
the canvass. Square fronts are shown
where gables should appear, and domcs
and spires appear in most admirable confu.
sion. A square fronted warehouse stands
where the Methodist Church should be,
and Miller's mill looks like a two-story
wharf or plantation tobacco house. The
steamer Olympia. lying at the wharf is
distorted all out of her fair proportions,
and the anderson appears enraged at the
treatment she has received from the art

such an inaccurate picture should be ex-
hibited abroad as a representation of this
or any other town Git looking as much like
one as another) on the Sound. One OBJ
ject Mr.. Barker has in exhibiting his pam
Drama East, is to direct attention to the
Northwest Coast. This we heartily COM
mend, while we regret that his enterprise
cannot, for the reasons stated, receive an
unqualified approval.

A GENERAL FLUTTER.-It appears
there has been general futter and furry
in the "1Iappy Family" since the advent
of the Treasury Agents at this place.
The Postmaster comes in for share of
the general tribulation. The agents wanted
the mail steamer to make descent upon
the Custom House at Port Townsend and
requested the Postmaster to give the mails
in advance Of the schedule time. This he
refused to do, but telegram FROM tho
Postal Agent ovcrcamc his scrupes, and
the Agents went on their way rejoicing.

PUBLIC PRINTING ExpLA1NED.-In
the matter of the public printing, our
neighbor of the Tribune has made an clab-
crate explanation. lie says the printing
has been awarded to that paper in the
name of the junior proprietor, and that he
has only associated McElroy with him in
order to make some money out of the con-
tract, which he failed to do when he had
it before. Mac, of course, gives his scrvi-
ces for the good of the party, serving upon
the same conditions of the Scotch clerk,
who said: &" 1t is nae mucklc wage, but
the wee things I can pick up" This ex-
PLANTATION is entirely satisfactory to the
Executive Department, but how is it at

TROUBLE AMONG TIE LoYAL.--Our
quiet little town has been greatly excited
during the past week hy cvcnts and rnmors
Of events occurring in some Of the Federal
o.iiccs. On Saturday evening DR. Bailey,
Supervisor Of Revenue for Oregon, Wash
ineton and Idaho, arrived here, accom-
panied by an agent Of the Treasury Depart
mcnt from Washington, and on Sunday
morning it was publicly known that this
agent had demanded and was in possession
of the safe in the office of the Receiver of
Public Moneys, and rumors were immcdi-
atcly ahoat Of large defalcation in that
Office, variously estimated at from $4,000
to $4,000. 1t is also currently reported,
and generally credited, that on Sunday
there was general demand for loans of
srccnbacks upon almost every person
known or supposed to have any of that
commodity on hand, by friends of the Re.
ccivcr, and that Governor Solomon and
Major Hayden started for Portland on Mon
day morning to "raisc money for big land
speculation" as was said by one of their
friends. OF course we are not in the Sc
crets Of the party, and can only give the
rumors as they are in general circulation
On the other hand, we are assured by DR..
Lamper, the Receiver, who is cousin of
the President and supposed to be an hon
orable man, that the rumors in regard to
dcfalcation arc utterly groundless; that he
has not stolen dollar of the public money
and has no intention Of doing so. lie asks
for suspension of public opinion until Tie
report of the agent is made public, and VIC
suspend.

HONESTY AMONG POLITICIANS.

The public are doubtless greatly
interested in knowing exactly how
much money Tweed, Connolly &Co.
have made in New York city during
the past ten years. We judge so
from the amount of space the Radi-
cal journals are devoting to the SUBJ
lect just now; but would it not be
as well to include an estimate of the
amount the Radical Senators at
Washington have cleared during the
same period? Is it not notorious
that nearly all of them went into
office poor and came out wealthy on
salaries which will not more than
pay personal expenses? Why not
inform us how much Senators Stew
art and Nye have made? How Con-
ness paid for mansions in New York
and lots and lands in Sacramento
and San Francisco? How Harlan
laid up millions on a salary of a
Methodist preacher, a Senator and a
Cabinet officer? 1t is notorious at
Washington that not a dozen out of
an entire Senate 7 above suspicion,
and these men are just now under
ban-Senators of the stamp of Sum
ner, Trumbull and Schurz. 1t is no
exaggeration to assert that as rotten
and reckless as the city government
of New York is or has been, it is
fully up to the standard of Senate
rial honesty.
