The FUNERAL Of little Willie Friend
occurred yesterday afternoon at l clock.
The body of the babe now lies by the
side Of that of his twin brother who was
buried one week ago. They both died
of scarlet fever, and their death is one
of tine saddest bereavements that ha.
occurred in our midst consequent upon
the prevalence of that dreadful fatal dis
ease among children.

The STORM on THE TEXAS Coast
From the brief accounts received by
telegraph, the late storm on the Texas
coast was fearfully terrific. Its great
est fury was spent between Galveston
and along the shores of Matagorda
Bay, where Matagorda, Lavaca and
Indianola are situated. MatagordA
and lndianola were the greatest suf-
ferers, having had most of their build
ings Frustrated to the earth. In addi-
ton these towns were all deluged.
The dispatches are not clear as 10
whether this dren ching, in the case of
lndianola, was from the rainfall or
the sea. As the town stands on high
ground, the presumption is that it was
from the former. Galveston could be
easily overtlowed by the wash Of the
waves, as il is built on the low beach.
The storm continued through two
days, rendered agonizing by the screams
Of women an1 children and the loss OF
LIE. The recovery q OYER hundred
dead bodies conveys = '"- m1HG an
Ia~s. ~T It terrific nature, and from
the wide scope Of country taken in in
the course Of the winds, it Is probable
that the story, as relates to the loss of
life, has not been fully told.

The Philadelphia Sunday Times
has made a departure from the ordi-
nary sleepy track Of the journalism of
that city by publishing in each number
a very good likeness of some one of
the leading local politicians of that
city. It has transpired that the rulers
of Philadelphia commonly alluded to
as " the ring" were nearly all mem
bers of the " Pilgrim Club" an organ
ization professedly devoted to social
intercourse, but suspected of a more
important design that is, the bring
ing together of the leading men OF
both the great parties with a view 10
comfortably sharing the plunder of the
city without the intrusion of the per,
tinent people who are always sneak
ing around irquirlng the how, why
and wherefore Of city expenditures.
Under the heading of " Our Pilgrim
Fathers" the Times has given not
only portraits, but has appended there
to very well written and impartial
biographical sketches of their lives
and careers. There is a quaintness
about some of the observations which
is amusing; for instance in speaking
of Johnny Hill, the city commissioner,
the writer holds him up as model of
economy and an example to the rising
oeneIation, iuasmuch as he has " by
dint of careful! housekeeping, in the
space of eight years, Saced two hun
dred thousand dollars off a salary
of only four thousand a year." This
shows, says the writer, what young
man can do on a moderate salary who
does not waste his money on lager
beer and cigars"

The French REPUBLIC's TROUBLES
The dispatches show further diScour-
agements in the political situation IN
France The organ of the Orleanl>tS,
the Journal de Paris, d,.nies the re
cent report that the Orleans Princes
were about 10 renounce all claims 10
the throne; and the Paris eorrespon-
dent of the London Times writes
that when the assembly convenes
again in November there will be a
new group of parllemenIsrisns formed
by a detection from the republicans
of the Left of such conscientious and
austere radicals as Louis BlaUU, and
others who believe iU ideal forms.
and who would be cUntented with no
government that is not the republic
of their dreams. \ choice by the
ballot would make France an absolute
republic by an overwhelming major
ity. But this division in the REPUBLICAN,
forces may put off such vote indeh-
nitely by delaying the dissolution o.
the present sSsembly-France's Long
Parliament. The republic of France
is in danger, therefore frcm its friends
as well as of being straDgIed in the
embraces of Bonapartism and mon
archy. President MacMahOn evident
ly leans toward the former; for,
though he recently displaced The in
discrete Admiral Baron lie Noury
from the command of the Medlttera-
mean Squadron. he put another friend
and Bonapartist, Admiral Rose, in his
place. If the President and his friends
do not succeed i'll getting the Prince
Imperial crowned, the republic is
beset on the other hand by Henry V;
and the late news mentioned that the
great friend cf this pretender in the
Cabinet, the Due de Cazes, Minister
of Foreign affairs, has just had Sc
cret conference with Prince GOrts
chakoff, of Russia, at lnierlaken.
Then the Orleanists, who desire for
their ruler King Louis Philippe H.,
deny, as stated i'll yesterday dispatch,
that their Princes renounce their
claims to the throne. These Princes,
however, have recently inrima,ed,
through the same organ, the Journal
de Paris. that they would remain
inactive in pursuing their claims while
the Comte de Chambord lives.

s PENNSYLVANIA CANDIDATE.-Ihe
democratic nominee for Governor OF
Pennsylvania, Judge Cyrus L. Persh-
ipg. of Pottsville, in the Schuylklli
district. is likely to be another Gov
ernor Tilden, in bis opposition 10
cIiaues and rings, should he succeed
in defeating General Hartranft for the
ooyerporship. Though he has always
taken a prominent part in Polllics'
and was formerly attorney for the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company, the
Philadelphia Times of the day before
his nomination, mentions 10 his honor
= noble example of the Omnipotence
of Justice when faithful officers are
charged with administering the laws.
The commissioners of Schuylkill coun-
ty tried to pocket iilegitimate profits
IN the construction of q new couney
building, thinking it safe under the
Jurisdiction of their Judge, Pershing-
reasoning that they were democratic
commissioners, in a democratic county,
with democratic juries, democratic
distric. attorney, and a democratic
Judge. The Times gives the result
of their efforts thus:
Recently the closing scene in this impress
i've lesson WAS enacted. The commissioners
of the county stood up before the honest Judge
and heard the judgment of the law. The
felon's cell for two years, a fine of $1,000
each, and the restitution or the stolen money,
were the terms of the sentence; and those
who were officers Of the county but day be-
fore were stripped of their authority, of their
plunder, and of their citizenship, and turned
from the temple of justice to their prison
homes.

RAPID TRANSIT The New York
Herald of the 7Ih contains the report
of The Rapid Transit Commissioners,
which, after an excited nights debate,
has been adopted by vote Of II TO !
of the Board of Aldermen. The re
port makes out four contemplated
routes for steam cars two Oh the west
and two on The east side, throughout
the whole length Of the city, to all of
which the eOunciImen gave their con-
sent, in spite of great opposition from
horse car companies and other antag-
OniSts. A. month longer is given

the details of structure, Of surface and

decided npon any plan Of construction.
But the most difficult part OF the

The FREIGHT QUEsTIoN.-The merchants
and business men of Southern Idaho are
discussing the question of changing their
freight arrangements and returning to the
Columbia River route. Down to 1864, all
the freight for Boise Basin followed the river
route, and their withdrawal was due the
fact that freights were kept at too high a fig
ure. The Central Pacific Railroad offered bet
ter terms and got all the trade. Time, however
has worked change, and it is now thought
best by those interested to return to the old
route. The inducements to this course are
thus summarized by the Boise Statesman
1st. Our merchants can buy several kinds
of goods in Portland as cheap or cheaper than
in San Francisco. 81. The freight will not
cost TO exceed $50 II ton from San Francisco
to Umatilla by weight-60 cents less for
Boise City and 81. 10 less for Owyhee by the
hundred then thry now pay the railroad
81. Ii due notice should be gwen, our team
sters would turn Immediately ON to the Una
tilla road at the same price they are getting
on the Kelton road. The Silver people might
have to pay little more, but not as much
as the difference Is against them on the rail-
road Walla Wslla Valley Is fnll of horses
and teamsters, and they will make sharp
competition and put freight at Il low figure.
Taking ii all in all we believe the advantages
are i'll favor of the Umatilla route, aud our
merchants are pretty near Of the same opin-

DIVISION OF HE COUNTY.

The following r,moDstrance against The
proposed division of the county Is being cir
culated and very gnerally signed
To tis Hon. tie Le;i&afirs Assembly Of UGsI-
i,igto4 Territory Tie undersign.d, citizens
and taxpayers of Wallis Walla county. re-
spectfully representa- yonr Honorable body
that petitions willbe presented to you at
YOUR present session asking for division Of
our county upon .ine that will take from
our county proper nearly two birds of its
territory and whie We claim TO be disposed
to be always Just and liberal, we most earn
estly demonstrate asainst the proposed segra-
tion, for the following reasons:
ist. The prop SCI division would take from
the old county all Of its timber lands and
much the Larger pat Of its arabic On farming
lands, leaving the hrger portion OF 1t desert.
ID We know that a considerable proper
tion Of the inhabitants of the proposed new
county are oppose 10 any division at this
time. and we belie,e that the people OF the
western end are q init in opposition to it.
Sd. We are not siliing to give up so dis
proportionately lage 4 part of our territory
to new organization, having, as we believe,
only local Interests in view, and We do not
believe the conntys yet sufficiently settled
to justify division.
Ii the Representatives of the eastern part
of our county. nowin your Honorable body,
insist upon division We would aoquiesce In
their going upon thebasis of an equal diyis-
ion of the territory, And propose the folio W.
ing line of division, and at the same time
demonstrate against any other:
Beginning at Snake river at point where
the range line b5tween ranges 3S and 80 east
of the Willamette Meridian intersect said
river: thence rInning south between said
ranges to It's Intersection with the Touchet
river; thence bllowing up Touehet river
its south iork-to the line between Oregon
and Washington Territory.
Finslly-In case your Honorable body
makes any division. We respectfully ask that
before the bill b,cnres law it shall be pre-
seuted to the legal voters of the county for
their acceptance or rejection
And, as in duty bound. We will ever pray.

ONE OF THE BET.-In the last lpgis-
lature Of New York the friends of the
Canal Ring made a great outcry
against the appr6priating of $50, goo
TO deiray the expenses of Gov. Tilden's
commission TO investigate the manage
ment of the canals. Already an ac-
complice OF assembIyman George D.
Lord, who conteSses to having been a
party in robbing the State out of
100000, has made restitution of his
share of the plunder. $4,000, and
Lord has been arrested and held for
trial on charge of having accepted a
brlhe while member of the legisla-
ture; while suit for the recovery OF
$4,000 has been commenced against
him. The property of the notorious
firm of Belden, Dennison & Co., canal
contractors, has also been attached TO
the amount of nearly half million,
and suits began against them TO re
cover hundreds of thousands of dollars
which the commission say they have
obtained from the State by means of
fraudulent contracts, altering of bids,
and the like All this has been &C
compished by the commission in about
FIVE months, and they promise before
the Legislature again assemblies TO un-
earth many more swiDdlers. That
$4,000 investment, the New York
Sun thinks. was one of the best ever
made by the State. The contract
which Gov. Tilden made with the
people when he began his war upon
the Canal Ring will be carried out
not only without change Of plans or
increase of expenses, but it also bids
fair to bring large amount of money
into the treasury, and to send to state
prison some of the public robbers who
have been plundering the State

HARD-MoNFY CoNvENuoNs.-The
democrats of Massachusetts, the repub-
licans Of Maryland, and liberal repub.
licans of New York, have declared
in favor of the speedy resumption of
specie payments. These declarations
are important only as indicating the
tide of public opinion. The democrats
are not likely to carry Massachusetts,,
nor have the republicans any we'll
founded hopes of success in Maryland.
The liberal republicans of New York
did mt even nominate a ticket, but
adroitly recommended their supporters
to sustain Governor Tilden in his
work Of administrative reform. These
New York liberal republicans are as
bitter on the present administration
as the true-blue democrats. They re
solve that they condemn the national
administration for It's illegal and Op
preSsiye acts ; for its retention Of cor
rupt men in office for It's shifting and
unstable financial policy /; for It's IN
tatlon of the currency, It's fraudulent
pretences TO the contrary notwith-
standing for its extravagant expen-
diture, and general disregard OF in.
te!hgent opinion" This style of Ian
guage, winding up with an endorse
ment of Governor TiIden's admins
tration, does not look as though the
straight republican convention had
made much head way in its avowed
purpose to reclaim their crooked
political brethren. So far the hard
money conventions are largely in the
majority.

Gov HENDElCKs, of Indiana, who

and deprecated currency on The other;
that they are the extremes Of CLINT

national council of our party VIII so

our ancient doctrine in favor OF
sound and stable currency, shaping
our politics in accordance thereto, with
return to specie payments always
anew, and at the same time avoiding
disasters which would Immediately
follow contraction"

LABOR RATEs.-The report of the
department of agriculture has a chap
ter devoted to wages and labor. 1t
finds the average Of wages paid for
unskilled labor by the whole country
including the colored people of the
South-to be So 40 per month, with
board. The coloTed people receive
from SIS to sll per month, South
Carolina paying the least. In Mas3a
chusetts $40 % is obtained, in Maine
SIS 81, in Vermont $40 81, in Penn
syIvania SIC 10, in the Prairie States
from SIC to SIT, in the old " Border
States" SD 10 Sl4, in California
SIS 60, and in Wyoming s32 80.
These wages are on contracts by the
year; by the season the rate is some
what higher. The contrasts are slrik-
ing in the methods of harvesting and
threshing. South Carolina pays nine
teen cents bushel, or a toll of every
twelfth bushel, for threShing by fail !;
the New England States twelve or
thirteen cents for threshing with itin
Grant horse powers; the prairie States,
with large horse. powers, about seven
cents, and California, with steam
power, less than six. The different
share systems of the States are also
described. The report next treats of
