The Great Animal Painter.

The British Quarterly Review said
some years since Of Sir Edwin Land
seer: "If there be one painter of our
time who deserves praise for labor unit
ed with genius, II is Landseer. He has
no rival To the power of expression
which he shows in his pictures of the
brute creation, Landseer adds felicity
ard truth in the imitation of surface
and texture which few have equaled,
of any school or country. We have re-
ceived from the publishers large chro
mo, measuring nearly two by two and
a half feet, of Landseer's Twins, one
of his best paintings. The original of
this was formerly In the possession of

PUGET SOUND MAILS Rumors are
current to the effect that George S.
Wright, of San Francisco, has been
awarded the contract for carrying the
mails on the Sound, starting from Ia
coma instead of Olympia, receiving
therefor SIG, 900 per annum. 1t is also
reported that Finch, Wright and the
STAIRS have formed a powerful combina-
ton to control the entire trade of these
waters, having the three best contracts

the o. S. N. and N. P. r.. II. Com
panies to back them, and owning, in
the Olympia and North Pacifc, the two
finest boats on the coast, besides the
Aida, Isabel. Eliza anderson, Wilson q.
HaM and Van. TuJer. Another rumor,
and probably with more foundation in
it, is, that Captain Blinn, of Olympia,
IS bent on engaging in steamboat mat
tiers, and went to San Francisco last
week tor no other purpose than to pur-
chase the S. N. Whippie, and run her
from Olympia, as an opposition boat.
The Whipple is described as fast steam
or, and eight years old. This steamer
was sold last week for $27 900, to a
party whose name is not given, and as
Captain Blinn was there at the time, it
is not impossible that he was the pur-
chaser. -Inteligencer.

THE TEMPERANCE LEAGUE.

The women ofOlympia held large and
enthusiastic meeting 10 behalf Of the new
temperance movement, on Wednesday last,
at Good Templars hall, as previously an.
nounced.
There was much deep interest expressed,
and an earnest discussion of several points,
which resulted in permanent union for
temperance work. The meeting having
been called to order, Mrs. Giddiugs was
elected President, pro ten. and Mrs. Steele
Sec. After prayer, singing, and reading
Of the " Parable Of tho unjust judge" Luke
18th, a programme was laid before them,
which gave rise to interesting discussions.
Legislation on the subjec, was declared
to be two slow and uncertain; but much
heartfelt satisfaction was expressed that
there is higher power to which We can
appeal with abundant encouragement. A
declaration of principles. or "plcdge," was
presented, read three times, aud accepted.
An association was organized, to be
called the 4" Women's Temperance Prayer
League" of which Mrs. C. A. Huntington
was elected President, and Mrs Gov Fer
ry, Sec. A committee was chosen, con.
sisting Of Mrs. GiddinGs, Mrs. Ferry, and
Mrs. King, to visit our City Council, and
urge the withholding Of licences. The
Pledge" was signed by those who re-
NAMED till the close Of the meeting, and
it is to be circulated throughout the city,
by volunteer ladies', for the purpose of Oh.
tanning the signatures of all who are viii.
ling thus to declare their temperance priu.
ciplcs.
1t was voted that report of these pro.
ceedinss be furnished to all the papers Of
the city.
The following is copy ofthe " Pledges"
1--WE do believe that the dram drinking,
practiced in saloons, is the most fruitful
cause Of the suffering and ruin Of individ.
uals, and of families, and that the habitual
home drinking Of wine, cider, and beer
tends thereto. We therefore pledge our.
selves to oppose the use of alcoholic drinks
by every reasonable means; either in our
own person, in our families, in social life,
or in public places; to the end that temp-
erancc, sobrety, right, reason, happiness,
and holiness may prevail instead of the
misery, degradation and crime, which re.
suit from intemperance--and to this we
subscribe our names"

EUREKA, March 30.-The stage due
from Hamilton at 6 o'clock yesterday
evening did not arrive until 4 80 \. NJ.
to-day, owing to the almost impossible
quantities of snow on the road In some
places the snow is said to have reached
the depth of fourteen feet, and before
the coach could get through the track
had to be prepared with the aid of
shcvels in the hands of passengers and
driver alternately. Yesterday the ac-
emulation of snow caused several roofs
to fall in, The greatest damage was
done to Eureka Hall, where the arcumu-
lation of snow on the immense roof
made the walls bow and spread, caus-
ing the rafters to slip from their rests
and fall to the ground. The roof was
so well trussed and braccd that it did
not come into pieces in the fall None
of the rafters were broken, except at
extreme ends, where u few of them
were splinteIed.

SEATTLE AND WALLA WALLA RAILROAD.

SEATTLE AND WALLA WALLA RAILROAD.
We take the following interesting
statement from the New York Sun, of
February the 18th: "The energetic
citizens of Washington Territory have
been stimulated by the collapse of Jay
Cooke 4 Co., and the Northern Pacific
Railroad to renewed exertions for &C.
comprising the project of railroad
from Seattle to Walla Walla, a dis
lance of 23O miles, the projected road
to form one link in line which will
bring Puget Sound into direct commu-
nication with the Union Pacific road at
Corinne. The first annual meeting of
the Seattle and Walla Walla Railroad
and Transportation Company was held
Jan. II, when complete organization
was effected. Mr.. 7. B. Morris, late
of the North Pacific road, is now en-
gagged in making survey of the entire
route to Walla Walla, and it is expected
that the survey and estimates will be
completed by May next, and that. the
first section of the road, twenty-five
miles, will be put under contract in the
Spring. This road will tap the great
grain-growing region of the upper Co.
lumbia, passing through country rich
in mineral and agricultural resources.
In King county, bordering on the
Sound, are coal fields fifteen miles
broad and forty miles long, having
veins of coal eight to twenty feet in
thickness. Mines of iron are found
interspersed through the coal region,
while on the line of the projected rail
road, just beyond the Snoqualmie Pass,
is an iron mountain of magnetic, ore,
samples of which have yielded as high
as ninety per cent. of iron. Northeast
of this mountain rich veins of silver
have been discovered, while east of the
Cascades in the Yakima valley are gold
fields which promise we'll. The Seat.
tie coal is of a superior quality, but its
production has hitherto been monop.
olized almost entirely by A. Hayward
of San Francisco, and the Bank oil
California, who have lately been keep
ing it out of the San Francisco market,
being largely interested in other mines
on the Pacific Coast; but we are in
formed that party of English capital
its are about to open coal and iron
mines near Seattle, and engage in the
manufacture of iron at that point.

The WANDERING JEW. This N.Y.
thical person the Wandering Jew
who is supposed to wander up and down
the earth in obedience to curse placed
upon his head by Christ, is said to have
made his last appearance in the year
IVA, and as he makes himself visible
in all parts of the earth once in each
century, the press has begun to talk of
his coming. We clip the following
upon this subject from an exchange:
The strange, sad, weary figure of
tho Wandering Jew has appeared in
the vicinity of an obscure village near
Antwerp, at least so says the Washing
ton P'1rlot; which, unlike the patriot
Washington, never received commend
alton for cutting down cherry tree
with its little Ratchet. The Jew had
his staff in his hand, was dressed in
the old Roman costume and not at all
like the old clio man whom Dore painted;
his feet were bare, and his long, white
beard swept the streets, and therefore
was looked upon as boon by the SIM
pie villagers. Adults fled from the
man i'll alright, but children followed
him to the outskirts of the town, and to
them it made remarks Oh the state of
Europe, aud made, among other retros-
pective prophecies, the assertion that
Belgium, Holland, and other States
were to be subjected to ruler who had
been born. When these interesting
prattlers asked him his name, age and
occupation, he did not call out upon
them forty-two bears, but mildly ,e-
buked them, and explained his position
rs the champion walker in the follow
ing awful words, at the conclusion of
which he took up his Flooding way
and the children scampered back and
pulled their mothers aprons over their
heads: Seek not to know. I have
been here in the past, I shall he here
in the future. Until the end of time
shall l walk the earth increasingly

Helps on the Journey.

If you come to Holy Scripture
with growth in grace, and with
aspirations for yet higher attain
ments, the book grows upon
you. 1t is ever beyond, and
cheerily cries, ''Higher yet! Ex-
celsiorr' Many books in my IL
brary are now behind and be-
meath me. 1 read them years..ago,
with considerable pleasure ]
have read them since with disap-
pointment; l shall never read
them again, for they are of no
service to me. They were good
in their way once, and so were
the clothes l wore when | was
ten years old, but l have out
grown them-I know more than
these books and know wherein
they are faulty. Nobody ever
outgrows the Scriptures,the book
widens and deepens with our
years. 1t is true it cannot really
grow, for it is perfect, but it does
SO to our apprehension. The
deeper you dig into Scriptures,
the more you find that it is a
great abyss Of truth. The begin
ner learns four or five points OF
orthodoxy, and says 81 under
stand the gospel, have grasped
Gil the Bible" Wait a bit, and
