Correspondents must not expect us to &C
knowledge letters containing remittances,
unless some special reason exists Tor 1t.
Our correspondence is very heavy, and we
must abrdge it as much as possible And the
receipt OF the paper will be sufficient to show
the money has been received, unless some
special reasons may be had for acknowledge
ment of remittance :,
Parties ordering their paper stopped will
be careful to state in every case, the
name of the post Office and State, and when
ordering it changed from one postoffice TO an
other always give the names of both offices
Careful attention to the above suggestions viii
be of great benefit to US.

TRIcKs THAT ARE VAN.-It must be
very annoying to have gushing damsel
invade the aditer;al sanctum DISGUISED
as o book agent, and "after doing your
prettiest" for half an hour to create a
" favorable impression" to have her
raise her veil and exhibit the laughing
countenance of one who knows your
faults as well as you do yourself. AT
least that is our impression, and we
doubt not that the editor of the Tran
script can tell from experience just how
it feels.

WHATcoM CoUNTY.-In speaking of
this county, the BeHingham Bay Mail
says: 1t is the largest in area, as we'll
as generally conceded to be the most
productive, of any of the twenty or more
counties of Western Washington. 1t
is capable of producing, and does pro-
duce, more grain than any dozen OF
them. From the southern part alone
(the vicinity of La Conner) will be ex-
ported three ships cargoes OF this years
cereals, and only small fraction of the
Flats is yet under cultivation. Two OF
the largest navigable rivers (the Skagit
and Nootsack) in the Territory course
through this county; and it is westerly
bordered by hundred miles of sea
coast, which contains many bays, har-
bors, and inlets, for the accommodation
Of commerce. We have no hesitation
in saying that Washington is the best
Territory in the Union and that What

ner county of the Territory. =

The HrcKLN SEpARAToR.-It appears
that Mr.. Hicklin, of this county, has
struck regular bonanza" in the sale
of his patent for an improvement in
grain separators. While in California
he exhibited his device to many lead
ing agriculturists, who acknowledged
its superiority over al others for the
purpose designed. In order to per-
sonally superntend the manufacture
and sale of his device, he proposes tore
more 70 California, and, as will be seen
by advertisement in another column,
offers his farm on the Gray's Harbor
road for sale, OF o bargain. We dis
like to lose our old settlers, but in this
instance we do not see how il can be
avoided without loss to Mr.. II. who
needs wider field for operations for
his truly meritorious invention. ai

rs 1T ANOTHER OLYMPIA ENTER
PRISEn2


1t is now nearly two months since
Messrs. Goodall, Nelson & Perkins sig
niied willingness to make Olympia the
terminus of their California and Puget
Sound steamship line. if only proper har-
Dor faculties were extended them. Some
Of our citizens, realizing the importance
of ocean communication, at once petit
toned the Board of Trustees of the
town to appropriate sufficient sum to
build the wharf, but that august body,
it appears, had a scheme of their own to
advance in connection with the pro-
ject, and resolved to build the wharf
in their own way and at their own
pleasure. Enough time has now elapsed
for some showing to have been made for
the proposed enterprise. The season is
advancing, and the propitious moments
are passing by unimproved. We may
never have another opportunity to Sc
cure ocean service, if the present season
of competition between two wealthy
companies, each struggling forthe mas
ter, is allowed to go by without availing
ourselves of its privileges. These are
times when the interests of small CON-
unities are consulted, when the people
in measure are masters of the situa-
ton. This is one of such occasions.
A single month from now it may be too
late. A weeks delay is unnecessary,
if the people will but cast aside the hag-
Cling spirit which induces them to ac-
quiesce in the promise of something for
nothing rather than to derive positive
benefit from O reasonable investment
Shall we again have the finger of scorn
pointed at us as the so City of Great
Expectations" the prolific originator of
enterprises never to be fulfilled, as the
community which lives in air-castles
that are shivered by breath, to be re-
built by the patient people who remain,
with q patience as remarkable as it is
rare? Or shall we arouse ourselves
from our lethargy and make one bold
united, determined movement to set
the ball of progress rolling. Who
speaks? D.: a

GoLD IN THE BLACK Is,-Professor
Jenny, Geological e explorer, of the
black Hills, has just made a report to
the Indian Bureau of his discoveries in
That region, and the report is very ia
vorable. He claims, to have, with a
small sluiee of waters taken SIS so out
of, one piece iofagrounda in ten hours.
He thinks there is a large district Of
country in which miners can make good
wages, but has not discovered anything
SO rich as they used to find in the
palmy days of California. But il is
very probable that Prof. Jenny has not
discovered the richest places, and some
real rbonanzas may yet be discovered
there. In addition to the favorable
report of the country for mining, he
giyesit good character for farming
and ;stock-raising. BE says there is an
abundance of rain in the Summer, and
that the grass is green all through the
hot weather. He thinks, from the char-
acter of the vegetation found there.
that the climate is not colder than the
New England States, and that the Win
tiers are shorter. This report will be
the signal for hundreds, and perhaps
thousands Of miners and prospectors
to rush into the Hills, and the Gov.
eminent win have 10 BE very wide
awake Vi1asesi if it succeeds in keeping them
out. '''' i: .',i" 80. 60 - $3.50 ~,
