FALsEH0OD.

1t appears that the Courier intends to
Eight it out" on the line of falsehood till
the 9Th Of November. To do this it re-
moved from the editorial chair . gdrt)e-
man who could not be bought to use such
unfair appliances, and has seated one who
firmly and religiously believes that d" q lie
we'll told, and adhered to, is good as the
truth" The latest falsehood uttered by
this disreputable sheet is that Hon. Il. a.
Wilson, of Arcadia will not support
Judge McFadden. Nothing is farther
from the truth. Mr.. Wilson will support
the Judge for the nomination and for elec-
ton, and furthermore he was not DESTROYS
Of another convention as prerequisite
for sustaining those time.honored prin-
ciples," which the Courier loves so we'll
we'll to laud. Another falsehood is pub
lished in the issue Of the 18th, in which
it states that Hon. Frank Clark does not
intend to participate in the campaign in
this Territory" Mr.. Clark authorizes US
to state that he will participate in the cam.
paign wherever and whenever he can be
of service to the party. Since Grant lied
to johnson when temporarily placed in
in charge Of the War Office, and Ferry
resorted to willful falsehood to gain seat
in the Kalama Convention, the underlings
appear to consider they have license to lie
on all occasions and without ceasing. 1t
will not win, Mr.. Strive honesty is the
best policy, even in these degenerate times.
The people are tired of such deception,
and will rebuke you at the polls next No.
vember.

FOUND DRowNED.-A letter from
Robt. Watkiuson, Esq, Sheriff Of Mason
county, dated I'd inst, states that the
bodies of two white men were found on
the beach at the entrance Of the Lilliwap,
near Uuion city. Although the remains
were in an advanced stage of decomposi-
ton, they were ascertained to be those of
Andrew Atkins, an old resident on Hoods
Canal, aud James Dewel, late Of Michi.
gan, and believed to be representing the
firm Of Loud h Co., Of Ansabla, Mich.
The bodies were deoently entered on
Bald Point, the day the letter was writ
ten. No inquest was held, but the unani-
nous opinion was that the deceased came
to their death by drowning.

WHY?-The following extract is from
the letter of an esteemed friend 10 Clarke
county:
"From what had heard I had supposed
that all work on the Pententiary had ceased
that no more money had been appropriated,
and what little there was could not he had.
Yet find it reported here that work on that
building has not been suspended, and Gar
fielde has secured an appropriation sufficient
to complete the work. How is it"
We have to say to our friend that work
on the Penitentiary has been suspended.
Mr.. Boone, the Superintendent Of Con-
struction is now, and has been for some
months past, in this place, following his
business as architect in the erection of
private dwellings for our citizens. The
money that was appropriated has been
withheld. AS to Garfclde securing the
appropriation, there is no truth 10 it, nor
is it probable he over will do so unless
stimulated by private considerations. 1t
would have been better for our Territory
to have been without representative, as
common respect would then have dictated
to Congress some little respect for our in
terests.

CONcERr.-The Concert given 10 Co.
lumbia Hail. last Saturday evening, by the
pupils of the Nieuxtemps Brothers, was
a very interesting entertainment, the schol-
ars exhibiting remarkable proficiency in
music, considering the short time they had
been under instructions. While all did
we'll, We cannot refrain from special men,
tian of the very creditable performances
Of Miss Baldridge, Of Tumwater, and
Misses Mary Prout and Lilly Patteu, Of
this place. Tn, "Sweet sixteen" and
"Thc bells 90 Ringing for Sarah" by Miss
Prout, exhibited remarkable talent in act
ing as we'll as singing. The "Street-
SWEEP" in which little Ada Wood was the
central figure was beautiful feature of
the entertainment, and the public mani
tested their appreciation of the little Sweep
by showeriug money upon the stage. The
final tableuu, America, was a picture in
which beautiful children and lovely maid.
ems we're grouped to represent various pat
riotic ideas, while all joined in the glorious
words of the hymn in praise Of our native
LAND. 1t is likewise proper to observe
that Carl Vieuxtemps performed several
very brilliant and difficult pieces on the
organ, which were loudly encored. 1t was
an entertainment that will bear repetition.
The PIoNEERs.-Mr. Turpin, of this
place, has engaged in q laudable endea-
vor to obtain the pictures Of the pioneer
settlers of our Territory, to be placed in
suitable form for preservation by an Or
ganization that, sooner or later, will doubt
less be formed with view Of perpetrating
its early history. The pictures of quite
number of our oldest settlers are already
placed in the group, and every day addi-
tions are made from sections near and re-
mote. With the purpose of aiding the
project, it is suggested that every person
who came to the Territory previous to
January, 1859, send to Mr.. Turpiu card
picture, endorsed with age, nativity, date
Of arrival and places of residence in the
Territory. This collection, if the response
is general, will in q few years be the pride
Of our people. We only regret that the
idea was not suggested sooner, that the
resemblance might have been obtained of
those who have Passed Beyond.

A NEW ENTERPKIsE.

Mr.. Robert Bunker, of Rochester, New
York, has recently received from Japan
about twenty eggs of the Japanese silk
worm. A great proportion Of these have
Matched and Mr.. Bunker thinks the enter.
prise one that will pay handsomely. This
silk worm does not feed on the mulberry,
but on the common oak leaves, which it de-
YOURS with great vorscity. In size it is
about twice as large as the ordinary silk
worm, and its cocoon is in the same pro-
portion.
As might be inferred, the Japanese silk,
while not of such a delicate fibre as the
common kind, is much stronger, and,
as the yield is greater, can be sold at a
much lower figure. Mr.. Bunker thinks it
can be afforded as cheaply as linen. The
japanese silk bears washing, and when it
becomes as cheap as it should be, would
doubtless make the most popular fabrics in
use. These worms are as hardy as they are
voracious. The eggs will endure almost
any amount of cold. As the worms feed
upon oak leaves, we see no reason why the
production of Japanese silk should not be-
come profitable, as well as common pur-
suit in this country. IL almost every fami-
y in the country there are several children
or grown daughters, who would find the
best part of their home education IN pur-
suit of this kind-an occupation more re-
munerative and far less demoralizlng than
the perusal Of the Jack Shepar d style Of TO-
mancps

Correspondence of the Union and American.
PULASKI, Aug. 20, 1S72.-The Giles
county Fruit Growers Exposition closed
with last week, after very successful ex-
hibition of luscious fruits and fair ladies'.
Every one agreed in pronouncing it grand
success, and that cold Giles" mi ght be
proud of as showing what she has, can, and
will do towards the national advancement
of the country. To give detailed account
of the weeks entertainment would make
this communication too long; but 1t was
perfectly apparent that Giles Is destined to
take the lead in that most important branch
of agriculture.
The block burnt last summer is now
nearly rebuilt, and the north side of the
Square destroyed last spring is under pro-
cess of excavation, and will be occupied by
spacious and elegant business houses be-
fore next Christmas. Capt. Bsllentine is
erecting on the southwest corner of the
Square an elegant Bank building, three
stories high, with stone front, which will
be the most imposing structure In our
growing little city.
The Denver fever is raging here with un-
abating fury. Daily, crowds of men can
be seen listening, spel-bound, TO the mar
velous relations of that land of "no labor
and perennial health" as detailed by the re-
turned pilgrims. / understand that an ex-
cursion party leaves here next month for
Colorado, composed of emigrants and plea
sure-seekers; part of whom, however, in
tend to return.
From all parts of the county crop reports
were never better. The large wheat crop
brought considerable money into the coun-
try. thereby enlivening trade and CONNER
cial transactions of all kinds. On all sides
peace and plenty smile, and the only thing
we find fault with is the indifference the
people manifest to what is really Of interest
to them. This state of things is the result
of disfranchisement and blind faith in an
overwhelming majority since the ballot has
been restored to them. JUvENIs.

LOVE hOU FOREVER.

L.. u
I shall not forget you; the years may be tender
But vain are their efforts to soften nv smart,
And the strong hands of Time are too feeble and
slender
To garland the grave that is made in nv
heart.
Your image is ever about me-before me,
Your voice floats abroad on the voice of the
wind;
And the spell of your presence in absence is
DER me,
And the dead of the past in the present I find.
l cannot forget you, the one boon ungiven,
The boon of your love is the cross that bear;
In the midnight Of sorrow vainly have stiven
To crush in my heart the sweet image hid
there
To Danish the beautiful dreams that are shrong-
ing
The halls of my memory-dreams worse than
For the one drop withheld am thirsting and
For the one Joy denied me, am pining in
pain.
i would not forget you; / live to remember
The beautiful hopes that blOomed to decay,
And brighter than June CLOVIS the bleakest De-
cember,
When peopled with ghosts of dreams passed
away.
Once loving you truly, love you forever;
l mourn not in weak, idle grief for the past;
But the love in my bosom can never, oh, never
Pass out, or another pass in, first or last.

THE ALVEY GRAPE.

This now variety Of grape is creating
some interest by its hardy nature, and as a
ia le and wine grape. 1t originated near
Hagerstown, Md, and has not failed, &C
cording to the testimony of s. Miller, Of
Missouri, in ten years. Its growth is
strong, with heavy, short-jointed wood,
with heavy crumpled leaf. The fruit is
small, with thin skin and black, and un-
equalled for flavor. When fully ripe it has
no pulp and but few seeds. 1t can be
trained on tree, and viii bear whether
supported or not. Mr.. Miller says that af-
ter testing sixty varieties Of grapes Mr..
Husman and himself decided that the Al
vey was the best.
