The INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT IN NAL.

The INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT IN WAL
LA-wALLA CoUNTY.-The Union, in allud-
ing to the probable effect of the indie
pendent movement in that county, says:
cit will haveno perceptible effect on the
Democratic nominee, for he will in this
case, as in all others, receive about the
full strength of his party. But should
we over-estimate the fealty to party in
their ranks, and should the whole indie
pendent force be kept together, and
should the Democrats now connected
with that movement stand firm and vote
for the Independent candidate, even
then Democracy would have no cause
to complain. They would only be
throwing away one vote in order to get
the Republicans to throw away three.
Our conclusion, then, is that the only
effect this Independent movement can
possibly have on the election of Dele
gate, might be to take away sufficient
strength from the Republican nominee
to elect the Democratic candidate. If
that is what the Independent leaders
want, why we say go ahead in the
course you are now travelling, and you
will accomplish it provided you can
humbug enough people into the belief
that you are not the set of humbugs and
tricksters that we suppose you to be.
In this county, so far as the county
ticket is concerned, we do not believe
that they can elect single man of their
own nomination, unless he also be q
nominee of the one-party or the other.
But they may have strength enough to
carry the election for the one party or
the other, provided they all stick to-
gether. But even this we do not look
for, the Democratic portion of the Inde-
pendents will be apt to vote the straight
county ticket in order to preserve its
record. We can not see that it can
have any effect other than to demora-
lie and weaken the Republican party,
and elect the Democratic county ticket,
as we'll as endanger the Territorial cleo
ton"

PEAcHEs.-Mr. Manning has had on
exhibition a dozen of the largest and
most luscious Seeding peaches we have
ever seen grown in the Territory, a
specimen of which he has left with us,
upon which the eyes of man may feed,
but which is as yet sacred from profane
touch. The peach on our table is eight
and one-half inches in circumference and
weighs one-fourth of pound. The
peaches were grown by Mr.. G. w.
Lawton, of White river, King county.

ADJUSTMENTS.

AMrsEMENTs.-T has been surfeit
of amusements presented to our people
the past week or two. DR.. Haskell
lectured three evenings, and gave a
slight-of-hand performance another,
before large audiences, who as the "per-
Torrance" was generally free, and re-
ally very creditable, could not help
being satisfied. The Doctors last lee
ture was on railroads, subject which
he handled with unusual ability, and
was the best argument for the COM
pletion of our branch road yet adj
vanced by any public speaker. We
regret that the appearance of the Pal
metto OIL man on the streets the even
ing of the railroad lecture, prevented
that attendance which the subject mer-
tied.
The most interesting exhibition in the
estimation of thoughtful people which
has ever visited this place is now dis
played in Columbia Engine Co. s room,
in the Town Hall. It is collection of
some two hundred varieties of the birds
and animals of this Territory, prepared
and mounted in the most artistic manner.
MIR. Lum, the owner of the collection, a
resident Of this county, has been about
six years preparing these specimens, and
the fact that they appear to even better
advantage than those on exhibitionin the
Oregon Museum, attests his proficiency
as skillful taxidermist. Everybody
should visit the hall to-day, as Mr.. Lum
will close the exhibition tonight, and
pack up his specimens, preparatory to
his departure for the Oregon State
Fair.
The Phelps Dramatic Company ap-
peared in Columbia Hall on Thursday
and last evenings, and appear tonight
for the last time, with an excellent bill.
On the first occasion the beautiful and
affecting play of the Pearl of Sevoy'
was presented, and last evening s" The
Hidden Hand, or Life in the South"
was admirably rendered. Mrs. Amy
Stone assuming the leading characters,
supported by the talented Fanny Morgan
Phelps and her entire company. To-
night the great play entitled edgar
ette' will be presented-the last per-
Torrance in this place, If real merit
OF the piece and good acting will at
tract crowd, the house will be filled
to repletion.
A horse-theatre is to perform tonight
a show patronized extensively by
those who believe it to be sin to laugh,
but proper to applaud the cavortinss of
figures in fesh-colored tights and span
giles, or the stale and uncouth utter
ances of the professional clown. #

Our RAILROAD BoNDs.-The negotia-

gone to San Francisco to confer with
capitalists there in relation to the loan.

large majority in the last Legislature,
they distributed the offices far too Eb-
eroRu to suit Mr.. Newell and we believe
to the entire satisfaction of their allies.
The first position in the Council was
given to Mr.. McLane, Liberal, and
Mr.. Brown, himself, as clerk, sat "cheek
by jowl" with Mr.. Gale, another Of the
Spartan band, while other offices, among
which were the important positions OF
Territorial Treasurer and the Legisla-
tive Printer fell to the lot of equally
deserving Liberal Republicans. Where
is the " treacherv," which the Dispatch
processes to see in all this? The fact
is the Liberals were satisfied then, and
are satisfied now, if we take their own
words for it; and it appears passing
strange that their cause should find
champions alone among few who have
made Democracy their study, their pride
and boast for lifetime. We do not
believe that any sensible man can be
cajoled by such transparent falsehoods
or glaring sophistry.
NEW Customs REGuLATIoNs.-We learn
from the Courier that hereafter mer-
chants and shippers who have goods
sent by steamer from San Francisco ria
Victoria, will have to comply with new
regulations that have just been adopted
by the Customs authorities. The regu-
lar invoices of goods will have to so to
the custom house in San Francisco, and
be copied and attached to certificate
of clearance and the latter document
sent on the vessel with the goods.
Then the master of the vessel which
brings the goods from Victoria must
enter into bond with two sureties that
the goods are shipped from an American
port and are to be re-entered at an
American port, and he then, on return
ing to Victoria, must carry back Ger
tificate from our Customs authorities
that such goods were thus duly entered.
Ifcare is not observed by shippers, goods
will lie i'll Victoria until the proper rou-
tine is gone through with.
