Matchmaking services.
On Monday nighta Watch-meetir

On Monday nighta Matchmaking
was held at the Methodist Episcopal
church. The design of this meet
ing, as now observed, is to watch
away the last hours of a closing year
with determination aud prayer,
and to hail the first moments of the
new born year with praise and
thanksgiving. The meeting referred
to on New Years eve began at $50
o'clock, with an appropriate dis
course from the Presiding Elder
of this district. Rev. A. G. Fairchild.
His text was 1st Peter 4th chapter,
ann 7th verse, ''But the end of all
things is at hand; be ye therefore
sober, and watch unto prayer. !"
After prayer and singing, another
short discourse followed from the
pastor, Rev. I. Dillon, whose re-
marks were founded on the q question,
SIS thine heart right?" The meet
ing was then open until nearly II
o'clock for short address, singing and
prayer. Revs. Edwards, Albright
aud Lane, and Messrs. Pease Payne.
Alverson, Coulter and others made
pointed and appropriate remarks in
view of the closing year, and just as
the year ended all joined heartily
in singing what is called the "Cove-
nant Hymn" commencing:
"Comr let MS The grace divine.
And all With one accord.
In perpetual covenant joi,
Ourselves 10 Christ the Lord"
A hymn of encouragement and
gratitude occupied the first few min
utes of the new year and the meet
ing closed with mutual congratula-
tions among all present. To some
it was a novel meeting, but to all it
seemed to be solemn and useful.

The House Committee on Indian
Affairs has substantially agreed to
report bill on the reassemb;ing Of
Congress allowing five Indian tribes
in the Indian Territory to be repre-
sented by q delegate in the House.
The business before Congress relat-
ing to the interests of the Indian
Territory, in the opinion of the sub
committee to whom the subject was
referred, is such as to make it advis-
able that the Indian tribes should
have official representation. As it
is they can only be heard by attor-
neys, and the custom has grown of
calling every effort of their friends
a steal or job. The committee
therefore concludes that justice to
the Territory as we'll as the credit of
Congress demands the admission OF
an Indian delegate.

Baroness DE BUss1ERRE. - I'll

BARONESS DE BUssIERRE. - The
Baroness de Bussierre, who died in
New York the past month, was the
third daughter of Ben Holiday. the
famons post office contractor, who
carried the mail across the continent
long before the Union Pacific Rail-
road was dreamed of, and thereby
realized an enormous fortune. He
was prominent in San Francisco and
Washington circles, and his social
life was marked by lavish and gor-
geous display. The Baroness de
Bussierre was a little over % years
of age, tall and finely formed. with
dark flowing hair and lustrous brown
eyes. She was born in Weston.
Platte county, NO., in 1854. On the
death of his first wife, it is stated
that Mr.. Holiday induced his
daughters to allow him to offer the
first will for probate, undertaking
to provide for them. The will was
proved and Mr.. Holiday took pos
session of the property, which he
subsequently mortgaged for about
100000. At the time of signing
the necessary documents it would
appear that the Baroness de Bus
siere was only Is years of age. She
and her husband lived with her
father in Washington until his sec
ond marriage, when the Baroness,
not finding the atmosphere congo
NAL to her, went to France. 1t is
alleged Tat she had been informed
by her lawyers that the instrument
in which she signed away her own
rights when a minor was no better
than waste paper, and had, there
fore, gone to New York to prosecute
her suit for the recovery of her
property.

At IL o'clock A. NJ, Rev. A. C.

were: /. The nature of the wedding

vice, large number partaking.
In the evening an able DISCOURSE
was delivered by Rev. r. G. Smith
of White river against the intidelity
% Thomas Paine and his admirers.
Paine admitted the Divine existe1cs,
but contended that His works were
sufficient to prove that God was in
finite in goodness, wisdom and pow
er. From these admissions of Paine
the speaker showed conclusively that
God was infinitely holy; therefore.
nothing unholy could proceed from
the divine nature. But man is an
unholy being, ofwhieh the evidences
are within and around us. He must
therefore have lapsed into sin since
his creation. In this fallen and sin.
full condition man con have no fell
lowship or communion with God, in
this world or the next. Now in this
condition is manifestly sesn the ne
cessity of divine revelation to man
For Of himself it is impossible fol

the evils of the fall. The large au
dience listened attentively to Mr.
Smith. and were forcibly impressed
with the logic of his discourse.

Early History.

Spending a night recently at the
house of an old pioneer not . thous-
and miles from Seattle, the CONVEX
sation, after discussing the bright
future in store for our rising young
city, very naturally turned upon the
days of long ago--days that tried
mems souls, when to be citizen of
King county meant voluntary sur
render of the comforts and blessings
of more advanced civilization, and
taking upon ones self, the hard
ships and tolls incident to the life
of men far out upon the borders of
an unexplored wilderness, and then
just as these representatives of Yam
kee enterprise were beginning to
feel comfortable in their new homes,
upon the shores of the sunset sea,
there burst upon them in all the
wild fury of such war, an Indian
out break, carrying desolation and
death to many family occupying
cabin in some lone part Of the
settlement" Notably was this the
case with the settlers on the upper
White river, where anumber of men,
women and children were murdered,
without even q chance for escape or
defense. That was an hour full Of
forbodings, excitement and anxiety
to the people of Seattle. When, on
Jan. Goth, 1856, they awoke to find
the little village surrounded by
hundreds of dusky visaged natives
clamorons for the destruction of the
entire town; but place of refuge
in the shape of a blockhouse
had been, few days before, erected
for just such an emergency. To this
the people hurridly repaired, and
but tor which, and the timely pres
ence in the harbor of the U. S. man

likely have been pillaged and burn

other parts of the land, had fallen

blood. When the writer first visited
Seattle in 1859, it. and the surround

contained but fourteen families, and
the county outside of the town,
twelve, making at that time total
in the town and county of twenty
six families; but from 1869 the
prosperity and growth of the
place has constantly been onward
and upward, until now it takes no
prophetic eye to see that in the near
future, Seattle will rank second, as a
great commercial centre, to no place
on the Pacific coast.
