Jas evidenced by the fact that it was
broken by the blow. We were
creditably informed that had "Alki," "
who was present, kept his tongue
still, this sailor would have gone on
board without resistance. The boat.
man, however, did complain be-
cause an officer was not along to take
charge of the man. He said the
boatmen were not brutal, but that
they were compelled to use force if
necessary to prevent their boats from
being upset, or themselves from be-
ing knocked overheard. When such
statements as "Alki's" are made
public, it is only necessary to lot peo,
pie know their object, in order to re-
duce their weight to the proper
standing.
These migratory fault-fnders some

CORRESPONDENCE.

PoET DISCOVERY, Oct. 80, 1877.
EDITOR ARGUS - Social excite
ment on Port Discovery Bay is OF
such rare occurrence that | think the
climax was reached last Saturday
evening, when a numerous party Of
friends from the surrounding coun.
try assembled at Mr.. Keynes resi-
denne on the bay, to enjoy them
selves, and celebrate the nineteenth
birthday of Miss Maggie Keynes,
oldest daughter Of James Keynes
one of the pioneer farmers of Jeffer.
son county. If one can judge from
appearances and the manner in which
the good things of the table, were dis
posed of, the lovers Of good living
enjoyed themselves thoroughly. One
noticeable feature of the occas on
(which l think might be copied to
advantage in more fashionable So
ciety) was that no intoxicating Ii.
quor was served at the table, Miss
Maggie being toasted in truly tenn
perance style. ua gCu a H
Dancing was kept up until late
Saturday night, when all retired to
their homes well pleased with the
evenings enjoyment, wishing Miss
Maggie many happy returns of that
day. Mr.. j. Keynes played the
host in his usual jovial style, making
everybody feel at home and welcome.
Mr.. james Woodman furnished the
music on the occasion. ""I

TRAVELLING SOLONS.

A curious specimen Of the genus
homo, belonging to the above
named breed, in writing to the" In
telligencer" over the signature OF
"Alki," whose most modern produc-
ton may be found in the issue Of Oct,
27th of the journal named, gives the
public the benefit Of advice which it
will never do'to neglect.
The chief objects Of interest in
this sage's remarkable lsbors for the
public good, are his truthful (D and
disinterested ~ accounts Of putting
sailors on board a vessel afters they
had signed articles before the U. S.
Shipping Commissioners, and the
" loose screws" which he is sure will
come out andletth whole machinery
of this place fall to pieces unless
summarily tightened according to bis
theory. He tells US that Capt.
Goodsll, of the ship Brown Brothers,
had to pay SOS, for putting his men
on board before starting to sea; that
one of these,men was tied aDd placed
in a small boat, having billy or
stretcher drawn over him by a boat
man who struck him on the head
twice with it before he could be
quieted. tH0 Etktss
In order that the public may fully
understand the explanation of this
matter, it may be well enough to
state--before proceeding further
that the learned solon Of whom we
speak, is tenacious aspirant tor the
position Of Shipping?Commissioner |.
The facts are that our Shipping Com
missioner, before whom articles Of
agreement are signed by sailors pre-
vious to the issuing of their advance
money, takes care simply, as he did
in the case mentioned, to see thai
the sailors are informed they mus
go on board when required to do so
otherwise they will be forcibly takcr
and shipped at their own expense
and that when Capt. GoodalPs yes
sells got ready to sail the rules wer,
followed out. The money paid ou
for taking the men on board in thi
instance, so far from being cost OF
the Captains part, was legitimat,
charge deducted from the seamen'
wages. The worst feature in thi
case, and one found in many simila
ones, was that the sailors-after get
, ting their advance money--deter
mined upon having a "good time,
, spent the cash obtained, for whisky
and were drunk when required o.
; board so that they resisted natural
ly enough. One brswny fellow q
, pugilistic tendencies was tied, q
stated, and after being put in boa
. was still SO unruly that one of tn
; boatmen struck him once-not twic
upon the head with a little stretch
, or about three feet long and not larg
enough to knock man down Will

THE CREW OF THE LACKAwANNA.

Inssmuch as very gross injustice
has been done the gallant crew Of the
sloop-of war, now lying in our har.
Dor, by a publication in our town,
which speaks Of them as being alto.
gether drunk and disorderly,' not
to be compared with Indians in point
of gentlemanly behavior, etc, IL is
not moro than fair that a simple
statement be made regarding their
character which, in view of actual
facts, is several degrees above that
represented.
The Captain of the Lackawanna, a
few days ago, called his men out and
read to them letter from the Sec,
Rotary of the Navy, in which they
the officers and crew of the vessel
were spoken of in the highest terms
of praise. The fact of letter of
this kind coming from such source,
an incident of rare occurrence, is
proof positive that the complinented
parties we're hardly set of vaga-
bonds. A visit to the vessel, and in
,estigstion of the matter, convinced
us that a vindication at the hands of
Port Townsend people was due. We
found the vessel in first.class condi-
ton every way; her officers to be as
fine and gentlemanly lot of men as
could be found anywhere, and those
who spoke Of the crew said that they
never sailed with better.
1t is expected that sailors, after
getting on shore when they have
been cooped up in vessel, are 60
ing to have occasionally what they
term iolly time. They drink, of
course, and often get drunk, without
being very decorous over it either;
but the fact that the officers of this
town did not take any of the Lacka-
wanna's men sin charge (at the time
mentioned, and that they were not
reported to their superiors on board,
shows that there was nothing serious
about the alleged disorderly conduct.
That they weredisorderly to some ex-
tent is not denied, but the proper
course in such matters is to have
them cared for by authorities, either
ashore or on their vessel; not to
abuse and misrepressnt the whole
crew before the world. S@5

DIED TODAY, NOV. !, AT 8 P.M.
HUNT TIE sCOuNDREL OUT.

1t affords us much pleasure to pro
duce, over Mr.. James signature
this week, a vindication of that gen
tleman in regard to the extensive
impression that he was the author oI
a malicious, cpwardly and untruth,
full communication published recent
i ly by some sneak who signed him.
self Taxpayer The mere fact
that Mr., James has taken a promi.
nent part in agitating the street
question, and that we referred to his
D production upon the subject, proba
bly, gave rise to the unjust censure
Of him in connection with "Taxpay
err" r7geLg ag t. !
Now, inasmuch as we can prove
that all the assertions made by "Tax
payer" regarding the alleged bring.
ing of communication to US, and
its being taken from this Office to ba
shown him, on the, street, are mali
cious fabrications of the basest kind,
and inasmuch as the parties who
gave publicity to the naligning ar
ticle claim to do everything con the
square," will they favor US with the
4 real name of Taxpayer" that he
may receive merited reprobation ?
Dare they do itp Or must public
censure rest upon them as the origi-
i nators Of a vile scheme to iniure one
whose influence their published false
hoods in other forms have failed to
cripple? One thing, quite certain,
is that some one deserves to occupy,
for a while, set Of our county Jew
elry, and pay, for indulging his ma
licious propensitiesa by improving
public roads, &c., but who he is is
the question. sas ~
-, e. Touching the allusion to an attor-.
ney for the town, in q case before
our Justice Of the Peace, having pre-
viously accepted a retainer's fee,
from an opposing party, it may be
well enough to prevent the public
z mind 4 from being misled a., il. we, are
Bot mistaken, the attorney, Hon.
g. N. Bradsb4w, did accept the fee
spoken OF, but afterwards returned
it and to6kZa fee from the town, and
there is no earthly reason why he
might not do so,if he saw fit. The
transaction was purely of a BUSH
ness character and applied, only to
