\QUIcKLY rILLED.-Some of our people
who reside on the hill are fearful that their
cisterns will not be filled with water this
spring. Yesterday one was filled in about
two hours-with water that ran into it
from the street. The operation was not
appreciated, and the water will have to be
pumped out.
MoRE CALIFORNIA SuPPLIEs.-Spauld-
ing & Cline, the well known Portland
butchers. have a drove of fifteen hundred
head of beef cattle on the way from Cali

gon to look for beef supPiy.-TribHHe.
CHOICE CArTLE.--Messrs. Booth, Foss

]. B. Libby for the purpose of bringing
from Protection Island fifty head of choice
cattle. The steamer left for that place on
Friday morning, but was unable to take
the cattle off the island on account of rough
weather. and returned here again Satur-
day night.-Intelligencer.
Iris reported that Port Townsend is to
have a skating rink, and that it is to be
in charge Of our genial friend Capt. Hines.
We hope the enterprise will prove sue

DIED.

At the residence Of her father, near this city. on
the 9th inst Of consumption, MISS LUCINDA R.,
third daughter Of Francis ". and Sophia Petty
grove, aged Is years, months and days,
Since our last issue we have been called to mourn
this sister dead. II there is anything in Christian
ity she was Christian, and died in full faith Of
future being. For nearly eight months she had
been stricken with that fatal malady, and when at
last she was told that she must die, she said, at
am ready"
-1At last
Without groan or sigh or glance to show
A parting pang, the spirit from her past:
And they who watched her nearest could not know
The very instant, till the change that cast
Her sweet face into shadow, dali and slow,
Glazed Ger her eyes"

Lots in Laws Addition to Seattle are
selling at 81 each. We have some for
which we paid $50 each. 1t would be
well for parties to make themselves ac-
quainted with the price of real estate in
the locality where it is situated before
purchasing Of agents or others. In order
to assist parties, in this respect, as much
as possible. we intend to obtain from the
different localities the current prices of
the land for sale and publish the same 80
sooE as We can perfect the necessary arr
rangements. 1t would be good idea for
the papers on the Sound to adopt like
policy which would effrctually put stop
to asystem of sharking that is anything
but beneficial 10 the country, or those COM
ing into it.

S. F. B. MORSE, the inventor of the tela-
graph, died on Tuesday, April 2. He
was born at Charlestown; Mass., in April,
1871. He went to Europe at an early
day to study the art of painting. In one
of his tripsCacre the Atlantic the idea of
the electric telegraph was first presented
to his mind, though the idea had, years
before, been conceived in Europe, but
never worked out to any practical result.
1t WAS in 1882 that Morse began his ex-
periments, and 10 1885 he produced the
first apparatus that enabled him TO COM
mnnicaie for short distances from one
place to another. He labored for some
years to obtain assistance from various
governments, but without avail. At
length, however, in 1s43, Congress gave
him an appropriation of $4,000 for ex>
perimental essay between Baltimore and
Washington. In 1874 the line was in
operation, and since then the Telegraph,
without material change from Morse's
system, has been introduced all over the
world.

Tng WAY TO CoUST BANTER rs.-The
Little Rock journal has this item Of the
vote OF Cilicot county. The Ministries
In their table Of majorities claim 1888 in
this County for Baxter. Does any one
suppose that there ia that difference in
the vote OF Wheeler for Auditor and
Baxter for Governor. We shall see:
f. p. Walker, the sheriff OF Chicos
county, tclegraphed to J. r. Berry TO
day that the majority of Wheeler in that
county was only about 500. The major
ity claimed for Snyder in Chicot is only
about $40, which, it is reasonable to sup
pose, was the fullest vote OK the party /,
yet the ring organ, in leaving margin
to figure up to, places Baxter's majority
over Brooks at ,S53 We do not think
they will be permitted to figure up quite
so high, when strict investigation is
made The adding of votes after election
cannot be tolerated any longer.

and signed by all present;
WHEREAS, The registration and election Of
liccrs Of this city and county under direction
ot State officials, to perpetnate their shame
less and corrupt rule over the people Of thi-
State did, at the election held in the city OF
Fort Smith, on the 9TH inst, in the most out
rageous and illegal manner, deprive very
large proportions Of thc lriSh-hmcricans OF
this city Of ther rights at the ballot-boX
without any just or legal cause, many OF
whom were Union soldiers and Republicans
thereby showing their total disregard Of our
rights, and their official oaths. Therefore,
BE il res ylred. That we do hereby denouncc
and hold up to public exccwtion the county
Board of Registration the Judges and Clerks
Of Election in Fort smith, and their aiders
and abettors, who armed and drilled an ire
sponsible rabble to aid them in their devilsh
scheme.
And Je Il tUiher resolred, That we hereby
pledge ourselves to aid in every honorable
way within our power to discountenance the
aforesaid officials, and their aidcrs and abet-
ors as totally unworthy Of the patronage,
support or recognition Of honorable men.
Resoirea. That these proceedings be pub

Promotion Of Gen, Mcdowell

The St ouis Times Washington spe-
cia ofthe 25tii ult., says:
The Presidents action In promoting
General Mcdowell to major general, and
assigning him to the command OF the de-
partment Of the South, in place Of Terry,
was not generally anticipated. 1t is re,
gardcd as a stop harmo lizing with the
purpose ae.ributed to the President OF
bringing a5out more cordial relations
with the Southern people, General Nc
Dowell being personally acceptable as
moderate and conservative gentleman,
and Terry being odious by his harsh and
malignant regime as commander in Nir.
gnia and Georgia since the war. Gen
Mcdowell will have his headquarters al
Louisville,
The assignment OF General Hancock to
General Meade's duties IN the East, and
the promotion Of Gen Mcdowell, is in
accordanN xilh the rule Of promotion OF
the army and is very fayorably com
