TE,r LATE MRS. UEIHUTH.

EDIroR STATESMAN BY article IN the Echo, a
paper published in Olympia, netice that the Cap
tain OF the steamer Ggljuh IS charged with rObbing
the body Of Mrs. HELMUTH, passenger on the Ill
fated steamer Pacific, of money ami iewelry. In
order that no wrong may be done innocent parties
desire TO say through your columns, that Mrs. Hell
mrth took from here $4,000, mostly in coin; that
SAID amount was placed in her satchel, myself
ryg it to the depot here; that 32jcO OF that money
was by her deposited in the bank of British Columbia
at Portland, and that she took the remainder with
her. From my intimate knowledge of Mrs. Hell
muth's habits and customs, believe that the money
remained in the satchel and that the body OF Mrs.
H. could not have been robbed Of that amount, but
that if ever the satehel be recovered the money will
be found IN IT,
The jewelry found on Mrs He!Inuth has been re-
ceived here, and was all the iewery Mrs H. owned
offer this stateme at from cons ientious motive
that slandtr may not be the reward % those kInd
hearted men who assisted in saving the living and
returned the dead TO their relatives.

ONTTUsKY NOTICE.

It is our painful duty to record the death
NJ Mrs EMILY IAsATER, wifs Of J. h Lasa-
ter, Esq, lady who vas held in very high
regard by very large circle OF friends and
acquaintance. Her death occurred at her hus-
bands residence in this city, on the night OF
the 28d inst, when she quietly and peaceful
" pissed away. Deceased was a native of
Illinois, and was in her 5lst year. In early
life she removed to Oregon, and was united
in marriage with her husband on the 23d
day OF February, 1866. From this marriage
resulted five children, who with their father
survive 10 mourn the loss OF faithful wife
and loving mother. The subject of our no.
,ice had been soreIy afflicted for many years,
and it is the uniform testimony OF all who
knew her that she bore her afflictiops with
Christian fortitude and patient resignation.
Her disease was originally bronchitis which
finally merged into consumption from which
she died, as noted above. About year ago,
in company with her family, she removed to
California, in the hope that mileer climate
would restore her to health, but after remain
ing there several months without improve
ment, she returned home in tho settled con-
viction that she was soon TO pass away.
Here she patiently awaited the dread sum
mons, and when at last the final scene came,
surrounded by her family and friends, she
quietly and gently passed away.
Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers TO wither NJ the North winds breath
But thou, thou hast ali seasons for thine own,

For q period of thirty-six years deceased
lived the life Of a consistent Christian, and
when she came TO pass through the dark
shadows she felt the Savior's sustaining
power In addition TO her cvn immediate
family, she leaves a mother, and brother and
sister, living in Oregon, to mourn her loss.
