The President vetoed the bill, and Con-
gress passed it over his head, by 1876 to

tory of right and justice over oppres-

the corner in specie, which has broken
so many struggling, toiling thousands
Of citizens throughout the nation.
The point where it will afford almost
immediate relief is, that it removes the
compulsory requirement of gold. which

FROM WHATCOM COUNTY
FLATS OF THE SAMlSH,
February ODD, 1878.

--os Ao'c-
Ed. INTELLIGENCER Many persons
have oftentimes heard of the Swino-
mish Flats, but few are cognizant of
the fact that there ara better tide or
tule lands on tine fats of the Samish
than on any part of Puget Sound.
And why better. may be asked Be-
cause % inches higher and of more
fresh water nature. and therefore less
impregnsble with salts than the flats of
tho SwiRomish. We almost make these
facts known regretfully. for we would
fain bide the day when we had used
our own investment here, before ex-
patiating upon what in few years will
be the garden spot of the Pacific Coast.
These flats consist Of about six thousand
acres of tide lands. a township of fresh
water marsh, and Of these. both border
on dry arabic land, consisting of alder
bottom and other tillsble ground. The
tide lands have already been taken up,
yet there are thousands Of untsken
acres of dry alder bottom lands that
hS'N ous w q
man OF toll independent. There are
many men who SANDER country be-
cause the land is not all ready for the
pillow and tho harrow without any
preliminary labor. aud also because
the pillow l. hot in the furrow for them
TO commence business with. But seri-
ously speaking. when one looks on men
who were here twenty years ago. and
have spent their lives in the forest and
have not awaited themselves of the adj
vantages that nature has here SO bounti-
fully provided. it makes us wonder at
the shortsighte mess of some men,
Before we close We must mention
the exceeding hospitality of the people
of Swinomish aud Samish flats. They
insist upon youS eating or sleeping if
you happen along within an hour or so
Of each customary time Another thing
which is to the credit of the people Of
these fats is the affable manner in
which they assist the new corners in
finding lands suitable for settlement.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 2S.--In the
J. c. Morrill, case yesterday, some evi.
dence WAS taken with view of prov
ing j. Duncan's connection with tho
over issues of stock of the Safe Deposit
Company. VIM. Cunningham, Presi-
dent. aud the Secretary of the Safe De-
post Company, testified regarding
3 shares which were found to have been
respectively raised from 10 to 1920,
from to 600, aud from 20 to 200
shares. Henry Myers, who held two
certificates. testified that receipts on
tho journal and stubs were not in his
handwriting and we're forgeries. and
Duncan's connection with the transac-
ton renders it almost impossible that
he should not have been at least prIvy
to the raising of the certificates. Dun
can recently stated in an interview that
Capt. Wilson, one of the sssignees Of
the depositors, and himself the largest
individual depositor. has expressed
sympathy with him. Duncan. and was
disposed to consider him less blameabls
than at first supposed. Wilson denies
this. and says he does not believe half
what Duncan says regarding his ability
to straiphten out his affairs, although
as q matter of business hs is willing to
avail himself of any assistance Duncan
can render. As to his sympsthies,
they are with the poor people who have
been swindled by Duncan's life insur-
ance policies, amounting To 800 900, of
which $4,000 were payable to his ss-
tate for the benefit of tho bank, the re-
mainder payable to his wife. and that
oil have iapsed unless the assisness
had paid premiums
