Our esteemed friend, Rev. Daniel Bag

of the Christian religion, during all OF
which time he has been an active political
partisan-dividing his services between
God and Mammon. with manifest lean
ing toward the latter-has put Oft his

Christ" whose Kingdom is not of earth,

sively to 1.-THE beggardly elements OF the
world" as the editor of the Courier, the
official organ of the Federal officers OF
Washington Territory. When LucIfcr

A Navy Yard.

Representative Whlteaker, of Oregon,
has introduced a joint resolution instruct
ing the secretary Of the navy I" appoint
a commission of three officers, whose du>
ty it shall be to visit Oregon and Wasil'
ington Territory and examine and report
upon the propriety Of establishing navy
ward at some suitable point npon the Pa
cific coast north of the 42d parallel.
When Mr.. Seward was here in 1869
he spoke of Puget Sound as the future
"Navy Yard of the World" On his
representations, two years thereafter, Gen.
Alexander, U. s. Engineer, under the di-
rection of the Secretary of the Navy,
made survey for ship canal CONNECTS
ing the waters OF Puget Sound and those
of Lake Washington, with the view OF
utilizing tile fresh water lake for navy
ward. We have never seen the report OF
Gen. Alexander in publication. but We
personally know, from frequent interviews
and unrestrained intercourse with the
General, thet the report vas as strongly
favorable to the project rs language could
make it. He frequently affirmed, in the
most positive manner, that there was not
another place in the known world with
equal natural advantages tor ship yar":
that it cost more every year to supply
the navy yards OF England with fresh
water, than the entire cost Of building
this canal; that its construction would
reclaim tide and overflowed lands OF val
ue greatly in excess of its cost. His re
port, embracing these facts. was made to
the Department nearly nine years ago,
and it is remarkable that no official nos
tice has since been taken of the matter
The length of the canal, from tide water
to the lake. will be about 2 miles. The
lake IS about 20 miles long by 9 wide in
its widest part. with sufficient depth OF
water to float the navies OF the world
In near proximity are immense bodies Of
the finest ship bullying timber upon the
continent, with inexhaustible coal fields
and iron mines. and all these advantages
are in connection with a seaport of un-
excelled excellence, rs near the centre OF
ocean commerce as any other sea poit on
the globe. These facts will not always he
overlooked by the Government, and why
they have been SO long is only because
Territory has no political influence at
Washington-nothing to trade tor Gov
ernnen, favors. If Representative White
aker succeeds in getting commission to
examine and report upon suitable site
for navy yard, it is very doubtful it the
unparalleled advantages presented here
are not set aside in favor of the mouth OF
some sand creek on the Oregon shore,
backed by the votes of two Senators and
a Representative in Congress against no.

RATES OF ADVERTISING The Chicago
Tribune receives $a5, 900 a column one
year; the New York Herald and Sun
each receives $39.723 year for their
cheapest column, and the price for pre-
ferred position is three times that; the
New York Tribune receives for its lw>
est column, $37,794, and for its highest,
$45,94S; and these papers are never at n
loss tor advertisements to fill their col

that amount is paid. Hence the very
inferior character of our dail,es. Jour-
nalists OF ability and enterprise cannot
afford t" compete with papers published
at starvation rates, and merchants and
business men cannot afford more liberal
prices for advertising in Journals of such
limited circulation and no public influ-

mate advertisers as the amount of the

MT. Mackay on Beats.
[From the San Francisco Post, l

Mir. Mackay, the horny handed miner who is endeavoring to pull through the present hard winter on an income of about $15, GOO day, came up to us behind the scenes at the Bush Street Theater the other evening and gave us the following little personal reminis- cence, which he assured us, with tears in his eyes, had never been printed:
 We had been speaking of mining men, and Mir. Mackay said: Talking of beats, my boy, those in the country don't compare in skill or audacity with the Parisian variety. The first time visited that city my coming was men tioned in the French papers, and also the fact that my apartments had been engaged at the Hotel Anglais. (Mr. Mackay speaks French like guide book-that is, the same kind.) When I arrived at the station I was, therefore, not surprised to have fine looking man walk up, ask my name, and request me to be seated in a carriage ready to be driven to 8 hotel This person saw to my baggage, rode up n the box, and escorted me to the hotel register, which I signed, my conductor in the meantime carefully holding plotting pad over the name of the hotel at the top of the page. When turned away he said:
 "I T trust, MT. Mackay, you will find the Hotel Grande to your liking
 '' But don't wish to stop there, I said, much annoyed. It is the Hotel Anglais at which am expected
 ''Is it possible i? ;" said the stranger "A thousand pardons. I was not aware you had kAN~S-OASNs ly recalling the coupe, he transferred myself and effects to my proper destination"
 Where, upon examination, you discovered your trunk had been rified by his accomplice, the driverP' we said, in the hope of heading him off, for Mac is terribly long-winded, as we all know
 Nothing of the kind, smarty," continued Mackay, who was beginning to get irritated by our persistent yawning. s'The baggage was all right, but six months after that re- ceived from the proprietor of the Hotel Grande the most terrific bill for five months board, wines and extras that you ever saw. You see the rascal had gone back to that hotel, passed himself of for me and lived thereafter on the fat of the land-giying wine parties every night Whenever the bill would be sent in he would put it of on some excuse or other, un- til suspicious were excited, when the landlord sent the register around to the Nevada Bank s Paris agency and had my signature identified. That made matters all right again until the fellow left, when he actually had the gall to direct that the bill be sent to my address over here for collection. Now, what do you think of that?"
 And the wing against which we were dosing sliding back just then, we picked ourselves up again, and said, s'Strangest thing ever heard !" Thereby working the Comstock for two more Budweisers.
