Peter Cooper for Silver and Against Re-
sumption.
New York, Feb. 18.-Peter Cooper has
issued an appeal to the country, in which he
declares it to be the duty of our government
to remonetize silver, and also to do all that
is possible to be done to induce those govern
ments that have demonetized silver to re-
monetize the same. He declares that the
policy of specie payments is producing a
similar condition of wretchedness to that
which was brought on in England by the
attempt to force specie payments on that
country, after suspension of more than
twenty years.

free show that has visited this town
since the ever memorable lectuling
tour of the celebrated Prof. Fowler.
Of course, front seats were reserved
for the press, and of course the press
was out in force viewing the grad
ual darkening of the grand luminary
of day through glass, darkly. The
performance commenced at lis and
continued until about $50. We
noticed some individuals who had
been viewing it through the medium
OF certain glasses, filed with an
amber-colored fluid, who were so
overcome with the grand sensations
produced by the awe-inspiring
spectacle that they had to be led off
home by their sorrowing friends.
Altogether it was great success
and should the show ever come
around this way again, we hope it
will have good patronage.

CALLED IN.-Allthe arms now

CALLED IN.-Allthe arms now
in the hands of the Seattle Rifle
Association, have been called in
by the regents Of the University,
and. together with those Of the
University Cadets, have been
forwarded to White River, to be
placed IN the hands of the new
MALTA company recently orga-
nized there. We believe that
the alarm existing among settlers
in that region is entirely unfound-
ed, but still the organization and
arming of good company can
do no harm, and will probably
have a tendency to create a feel
ing of security and prevent the
occurrence ofany panic IN regard
to Indian outbreaks. The Rife
Association, previous to the call
ing in of the arms, were making
arrangements for the purchase
of good rifles: they being all
dissatisfied with the shooting of
the old-fashioned, coarse sighted
guns they have been using.
Cow K1LLED.-The coal train
last evening ran over and killed

vessels are three of the largest
ships that ever came to the
Sound, the Yosemite, Alaska,
and Ericsson, the aggregate coal
carrying capacity of which is
$500 tons. This is a very favor
able showing for our port.

composition for false teeth. He
claims that the process is patented
by the company he represents, and
they expect to collect royalty from
all dentists using it. He was in AL.

catch either of the dentists. This is
an age of swindling, and we advise
our dentists to look into the matter
well before paying over any money.

TRAIN WRECKING.-So Some Internal
scoundrel or scoundrels made a
diobolical attempt to wreck one of
the coal trains on the railroad last
evening, which came near being
successful. A rail was fastened in
the track, end on. with one end
projecting upwards, and the whole
covered with small amount OF
brush, to create the impression that
it was harmless lot of rubbish, on
the track between Renton and New
castle. The engineer of the Bodie.
coming down with a full train of
coal cars, noticed the brush and
suspecting something wrong, imme-
dlately reversed the engine, but
could not entirely stop her. She
came on slowly and struck the rail,
which passed through her head
light, which was carried on the pi-
lot, and stopped short within two
inches of the boiler head. Had. it
penetrated the boiler it might have
caused the death of both the engi-
neer and fireman, and it was close
call. This is not the first attempt
of, the kind thai has been made.

CRY VS.. YEsLER the above
entitled case, the Supreme Court,
while recognizing the validity OF the
city charter as legalized by act OF
Con ngress, unanimously confirmed
the decision of the Court below that
the assessment contested by Mr..
Yesler was illegally made under the
charter. This decision will techni-
cally invalidate the city scrip issued
for improvements upon our streets,
amounting to several thousands OF
dollars, but we do not believe that
any considerable portion of our cit
liens will consent to a reputation
of any Just obligation for which the
CITY has had the benefit on account
of any technical defect in the con-
tract. That the Mayor and Common
Council acted in good faith. there
can be no reasonable doubt, and
their only fault was the mistake or
incompetency of their legal adviser.
There are no circumstances which
will justify the citizens OF any COM
munity in repudiating the obliga-
tions contracted for them according
to the forms of law. by their own
chosen officers. Mississippi was
made infamous for repudiating
bends which were decided by its
Own Supreme Court to have been is
sued without the authority of law,
bub which had been sold for, and
applied to, the benefit of the State.
Seattle cannot afford to accept the
bad eminence of repudiating city.
COMMON CoUNCIL.-To remove a
false impression which seems to pre-
vail, we would state that the first
meeting of the new Common Council
will not be held until Thursday
next. that being the day prescribed
by the previous Board as the time
for the regular meeting. The term
Of the Mayor and Common Council
commences tomorrow (2Sth), for all
the officers elect who have qualified
by filing their oath of office with the
City Clerk previous to that time,
- -a meeting is necessary to give
validity to that rIle.
