PROFESSOR Jordan, Of the U. s.
Fish Commission, will be here about
the end of the month, and will stay
on Puget Sound and in British Col
unbia waters until the lst of June
or later. Hs will be met by Mr..
Swan and accompanied to Ncah Bay
aud other points of interest, and
when he goes hence hs will probably
have in his care more specimens Of
fish than have yet gone from the
Sound at any one time. Professor
Jordan has been for several weeks
in California, and in tho markets of
San Francisco has gathered twenty
six varieties Of fish entirely unknown
on the Atlantic. He has lstsl been
at Monterey, but is now about leav.
ing for Astoria, where he will make
thorough examination of the Col.
umbia river salmon. The visit of
Mr.. Jordan may result in much ben
eft to Puget Sound, and everything
should be done to further the objects
he has in view. Mr.. Swan is An AS.
sistant to the Fish Commission, and
the two gentlemen, in conjunction
with such assistance as they will get
at Port Townsend, Victoria and else.
where, will accomplish vast amount
of work during the short time at
their command.-''Intelligencsr."

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. d. C. April 90. 1880.

WARRINGTON W. " April I'd. iooo'
After very long debate, the &c.
neva Award bill has been postponed
indefinitely. The people who are
most seriously disappointed are the
Insurance Companies who made
money out of large premiums during
the war, and. now claim still larger
profits TO come from division Of ths
balance Of the award paid by Great
Britain. The whole debate seemed
TO turn upon this point, Senator
Blaine leading against the insurance
companies, and Thurman and Car
pentsr leading on the other side.
Senator Blaine received a good many
congratulations from men Of all par.
ties on his effort TO have the ship
owners reimbursed for their losses
by the rebel cruisers. IT. fact all
concede that this der ate developed
his ability more signally than any
other since he has been in the Sen.
ate.
The Democrats have again shown
their weakness in the efforts to
check off debate on the deficiency
appropriation bill which contained a
clause relative to the United States
Marshals. But yesterday they
backed down and agreed to allow
the Republicans one hour and TWEEN
tv minutes for debate. The bill
passed eventually. The Republi-
cans propose to discuss everything
that comes before them for action
and not bs driven to vote upon any
subject that is not intelligently un-
dsrstood by tho country.
Political matters are getting very
exciting now. The Republicans
here universally regret the disorder
ly proceedings in Georgia and other
Southern States, but there is no ap
prehension Of trouble beyond the
primaries. After the Chicago Con
vention all will unite to elect the
ticket. can say positively that the
action of the Virginia Republican
Convention in naming Senator
Blaine for Vice President is distaste-
full to his friends, and some OF them
regard it as deliberate insult
planned in Washington. They say
he is the leading candidate for Pres.
idsnt now, and that is why the Grant
men use his name in this way, hop
ing to help their own candidate by
SO doing. The Georgia Convention
shows that Senator Blaine and Sec
rstary Sherman as we'll as General
Grant will get many delegates from
the South.
The widow divers suit against
Simon Cameron will be tried here in
a few days unless it shall be settled.
She sues for damages of 100000
for breach OF promise OF marriage.

AN iron mine of remarkable rich.
ness has recently been discovered by
Mr.. w. r. Brawlsy and Mr.. Chas.
e. Norager. Yesterday these gent.
lemen, in company with Prof. Tier.
nan, made an assay Of the ore, TAX
ing piece weighing "a pounds.
Their appliances for giving it fair
test, were very imperfect; but they
succeeded in getting piece of met
Al II pounds in weight--ifty per
cent. being iron, 10 per cent. cop.
per and 5 per cent. silver. Prof.
Tiernan reports the ore to be equal
to the best Lake Superior, or that
found in Norway. 1t is what is
called brown hematite, and thinks
with a crucible and suitable appli.
ance for making accurate tests, it
would assay as high as Is per cent.
The deposit from where the ore was
taken, lies in position of easy &C
cess, and one upon which work can
be done to advantage. These gent.
lemen have both had experience in
iron mining-Mr. Brawley in Penn.
sylvania and Mr.. Norager in Norway.
1t is their intention to open out and
develop the mine, making their
headquarters at Seattle.-Seatt

INCHES.
NAVY YARD.

Inc great ana growing commercial
interests OF the Northwest coast impeIa.
lively demand the establishment OF a
Navy Yard somewhere on Puget Sound,
and, In al probability. the government
VIII soon select suitable place and cause
one to be erected. The advantages which
Puget Sound possesses for Navy Yard
are simply Incompatible. The place to
locate 1t would, of course. be a matter re-
quirlng careful survey by competent en-.
glneers, but IN oar humble Judgment no
spot OH the Sound presents greater in.
dncemcnts with fewer obstacles, than the
Island OF 700 acres lying between the bay
OF Port Townsend and Scow Bay. The
water all about the island is deep enough
to float the largest vessels, and free from
any submarine dangers. There |. an I'M
mense bed of good building stone OH the
Island, also plenty OF fuel and water. An
iron furnace about one and one half miles
distant, across the bay, is being erected.
and 1t is very probable that rolling mill
will soon follow. The government has
large military reservation and garrison
near the island, but across Port Townsend
Bay, where are always stationed one or
more companies Of troops.
HEALTH.
Western Washington Is one of the most
healthy localities in the United States.
II Is far more wholesome than the valleys
OF the western Ifvers, and the mar who
comes here with good constitution, has
a fairer prospect of long life than the
dweller ia the crowded cities OF the east or
In the fertile but malarious valleys of the
center ofthe American continent; yet tits
not paradise where people may expect to
regain youth or live forever. The same
violation Of the laws of health are followed
by the same inevitable con sequences here,
as elsewhere. The cool nights have a
great sanitary effect. While the people of
the Atlantic States are rolling In their beds
allnight and gasping for breath, our ex-
pended energies are being restored by
refreshing sleep beneath pair Of wooen
blankets.
Fever and ague Is unknown except In
cases of persons who have Come from ma
larious districts there Is but little malaria
here anh they soon get .'ell. Cases of
Summer complaints of children, as cllol-
era-intantum, dysentary, diarrhea and
such other malades as are developed from
high degree Of temperature, also pleu-
risy, pneumonia are comparatively rare.
There are no diseases peculiar to the col'n-
try. Hydrophobia is unknown. The
winters are not cold neither are the sum-
mers hot. but the temperature throughout
the year Is remarkably uniform. Surgical
operations here are seldom followed by
unfavorable complication such az Erysipe-
la, gangrene or pyamia. Rheumatism
and heart disease as Il sequel of rheumatic
affection is probably more prevalent here
than in places where the atmosphere Is
less humid.

REV. Isaac Dillon, who was instru.

Total snowfall for January, 1880, feet
81 inches. Snowfall for 1878, only IA
inches, and for 1873 none at all.
The climate Of Western Washington,
as will he seen BY the above table. Is not
one of extremes, unless 1t be said to be
extremely mild and even. Its seasons
are not as distingulshable rs In most eli
mates, in fact they merge into each other
90 imperceptlbly that it Is quite proper
to say there are but two-Winter and
Summer--sometimes called the wet and
the dry; but such names we think as
''wet' and dry" tend to mislead; be-
cause our winters are not very wet, nor
are our summers very dry. In tact the
only material difference between the win
ters and summers here and tho winters
and sualmers in the Atlantic States is,
that the winters there are cold with snow
and but little rain, Willie here they are
mild with but little snow. And the sum
mers there are excessively hot with Occas-
ional showers while here they are cool
with occasional showers. 1t is true that
IN occasional years we do not have much
rain in July and August, but there is
always some, and we have yet to learn of
a single crop, put in due season, which
has been materially injured by lack of
sufficient moisture. 1t Is common OIL the
high bluffs, like the one OH which Port
Townsend stands, for peculiar native
grass, that Is not considef@d of much
value. to turn yellow in July and remain
SO until September when rain begins to
tall more copiously aud 1t springs up
green again, and it is probable that this
phenomena, observed by travellers. is what
gave rise to the expression dry But
as 3 matter OF fact when this same grass
Is within an enclosure and not kept down
by grazing 1t always grows until fully
mat'red and does not turn yellow until
dead ripe, the same as grass in any coun-
try; and If mown, will spring up again,
grow lnxurlantly and keep green straight
along until mown again one year after.
There Is one popularity about the storms
IN this country which may interest people
who dread thunder polts, and that is, that
lightning and thunder seldom accompany
them. The rain here does not usually tall
In short heavy showers and then clear of,
but 1t falls gently and continues all day,
yet It would not wet through ordinary
clothing In several hours. In fact there
are very few rainy days in q whole year
in which man could not work out of
doors. And so far rs cold is concerned,
there is very seldom day when man
accustomed to out door life, would think
Of putting on an oVereoat. The past
winter has been the mot severe Of any
within the memory Of the oldest white
resident, or Indian. Yet it has not been
very cold, but the great depth of snow
took everybody by surprise ard caused
considerable suffering among stock and
broke down a few houses and barns.
The following is the average animal
rainfall, copied from tables OF Prgcipita-
tion OF rain and snow IN the United States,
being the mean for a series of years. Pub

THE farmers of the Swinomish
country are getting along nicely
with their seeding. Mr.. J. S. Con
ner has between 300 and 400 acres
OF oats sown. But little wheat will
DO sown in consequence of the fine
prospects in California for bounti-
full yield this season; hence the far
mers will look to California markets
for the sale Of their oats and barley.
