ANOTHER VETERAN GONE.

The announcement which appeared in
our dispatches Saturday. of the death Of
Resr.Admiral Charles Wilkes, L. ;. y.
will possess . melancholy interest TO
the people Of this Territory. by reason
of his historic and almost romantic
identification with the early discovery
and settlement of this coast. He will
be remembered as publishing to the
world, thirsy-three years ago. IN regard
to Puget Sound. the bold declaration,
THAT there is 40 country in the world

search throughout the solitary wastes OF
the South Seas and all around the world
in 1888 he travcrsed this Territory
from Cape Fla,tery to Fort Colsiiie-
explored and accurately described all the
river valleys and other natural features
of the country, and, in fact, wa. the
first TO furnish 10 tie American people
any definite information in regard to
the western front Of the Great Repub-
lie. His researches we're the basis OF
tho American title To tbs sountry, and
to his daring enterprise we owe the tact
that the American colors float over Pt-
get Sound to-day. HIS reports were
the means of starting the wave Of i'm
migration that set in toward the 'Ore-
gon" even before the discovery of gold
in California, and enabled our statesmen
to maintain their claim to tho 49th par
sllel "by the right of settlement and
occupation"
He was god father 10 most of the
local geographical Laues on the Sound
many of which he gave in comp!l-
anent to his comrades in the navy. For
