enough TO make an Anglo Saxon's blood

can we lay the blame at the doors Of
their employers, for it is natural that

Cinnamon to come here, but encourages
them in coming.

since she arrived III port. which broke
out yesterday in an open mutiny. The
men, when ordered to work. refused,
aud even made feint of attacking the
Captain with knives. The latter tele-
grapted to this city for magisterial
force. which Immediately went to the
rescue in the persons of officers Thorn
dyke and Wright. Constables Thornton
and Lyts. and Jack Levy On their
arrival, however. the disturbance had
been queled by tho decision and vigor
of Capt Caviassa and his officers. The
demonstration was more of buster
on the part of the sailors in hope OF
bullying the Captain into an increase
of their wages than anything else.
They concluded to return to duty. and
the bark went on her way last evening
bound for South America.

about i've miles from Port Discovery,

miles from, Port Townsend The first
settlement was made in 1856 oy Mr.. S.
Kellogg. Low of Seattle. In May, 1857,
Messrs. Bishop and EIdridge located
alongside Of and just above the other
settlers, and entered upon their task of
Improvement with the magnificent cash
capital Of % cents apiece. Today
their farms are worth, Including stock,

from 5000 each. saying nothing Of the
few Thousands in cash laid by. A fair
sample Of the results 10 be achieved by
pluck, industry and perseverance,. In
the valley there are to- day 81 occupied
claims. in various stages of improve
ment from being the sites Of rude log
cabins To supporting those neat. COM
modious, cheerful and extensively fur
nished residences which bespeak so
much of the comforts and desirable
features of q we!l-to-do rural life.
These 80 claims will one day he fine
farms. and those who have had oppor-
tunities TO know say that there is as
much more good land in the vicinity as
has been taken. If this be true, it will,
ere another twenty years have passed,
form one of the richest and most ex-
tensive farming communities on this
side of the Sound. There are at pres.
ent Il families in the settlement, and
these keep up district school.
