ANOTHER SCHoLaR.-Tiie nineteenth
of the pupils appointed to The Univer-
sity under the Free ScholarsAip Act, is
Miss Francis Probstel, of Lackamass,
Clarke county. Her appointment was
made BY Representative Charles I.
Stiles, Of that county. We have yet to
hear from Governor Ferry, Judge
Greene. Councilman Hathaway and
Representatives Atkinson, Warhass,
Long, McResvy. LaDu, Davis, Daniels.
Chapman, Ward and Iverson. each Of
whom is likely to appoint one within
the required time. It only requires
eleven out Of the thirteen above named
TO Gil the bill and enable the University
to draw one thousand dollars for the
salary Of the additional professor re-
Gently engaged by the Regents. Should
the desired number not be completed.
that will make no difference; tor all
that come will receive the tuition pre-
scribed, and the Regents look for re-
lief from the next Legislature. At the
same time, we venture the hope that
at least thirty appointments will be
filled in time, without which no money
can be DRAWN so as TO render no such
delay necessary. In this connection, we
are pleased to note the large number Of
females appointed as pupils. 1t will
lead to greater supply Of lady teach
ers for our common schools, want that
has been long aud sorely felt. as many
OF our school directors in the rural dis
tricts can testify. Should the next
Legislature increase the annual appro-
pristiOn to two thousand dollars and
the number of Free Scholarships to
sixty. and maintain it at that standard.
it will obviste the necessity for a Nor
NAL School in this Territory Tor State)
for the next twenty years. We believe
this to be the most economical method
Of educating the youth Of our Territory
to the profession of teaching and we
consider this appropriation to be money
we'll invested.

THE MAsrIc.-Last Saturday this
tug. the largest en- Puget Sound save
the Goliah. was hauled out of water on
hsmmond's ways to receive new coat
Ut copper on her hull. She is by long
odds the heaviest vessel ever hauled
out here. aud yet she was taken out OF
her element with the greatest ease and
rspidity. Had the ways been unequal
to the task they would have bound and
nead her fast. Capt. Hammond may
well feel jubilant over the success of his
new ways, tor they answer every pnr-
pose.

workmanship of the cars ON the Seattle

wants couple like them. we are of the
opinion that Mr. Colmsn can furnish
them to him just as good as he can buy
them ut the East and great deal
cheaper.
