WNrsBURG. Beta" writing to the
Washington Denocrdt has this to say OF
Waitsburg: Coming in sight OF Waits
burg, our first impression that it is a very
pretty little town is fully sustained ON ar
irving there situated between the Touchet
and Coppei about a mile above their junction.
1t possesses great natural advantages both
for commercial business and manufacture,
while the spirit and determination OF its
people is shown by the fact that scarcely n
trace Of the late disastrous fire remains. 1t
has one of the best schools in Washington
Territory, and school building Of which
the people are justly proud. Whether the
read now built to Waitsburg will be- much
Of help to the place may be doubted, bnt
no one " ho has been there and made the ac-
quaintance Of the hospitable citizens can fail
to wish them well.

EprroR HfArEsMAs i'm your issue of
iast night notice statement in regard to
slavery existing in Alaska While such is
literally true, nevertheless the Government.
through its agent, Capt II. Glass, OF the U.
s. ship-of.war Jdmexoen, is doing all in
his power to abolish this curse 70 civihza.
tson. and at present has succeeded very well
with all of the coast tribes in Alaska, ex-
cepting the ChiIcats, Who have not freed
any of their slaves mp 10 the present time.
In conversation which / had with Chat
writch, head chief OF the Chilcats, in refer.
epce to this question Of freeing slaves, was
astonished At the arguments used by hlm
why his slaves should not be freed. He
sand, 'Py what authority does this Captain
Glass take away my slaves, which are my
property, that bought and paid for; They
are mine-as much my property as the
goods in the company's store. Would 1t be
right for me to go to the companys store and
tell your trader 10 give his goods to us with
out pay, No; that is not right, for those
goods are your company's property, and
have value the same as my slaves. Then
out receiving compensation for them!
Such is their unanswerable argument. New
ertbeless, Capt. Glass does sll in his power
to compel them to obey the laws regarding
slavery. In short time slavery in Alaska
will be a thing Of the past. There is but
Que horrible feature in connection with the
same, and that is, On the death OF a CHIEF, or
the erection Of = carving to the memory oi
their ancestors, they generally kill from two
10 forty slaves. Otherwise they are well
treated they eat, drink and live with their
masters-in fact are treated rs one OF the

which is slave and which master. L have

Is THIS Truth ?-The London
Truth SAYS No man attacks the
reputation Of q youth as women
attack that Of q girl. The man
who should come into his club and
whisper about 6amning stories of
bis friends young son, who should
accuse him Of dishonorable doings,
such as would ruin the lads char
acter as thoroughly as the charge
Of immodesty, flirting with mar
ried men and the like ruin that Of
a girl, would soon have the room
to himself. But women over the
tea table gather up the crumbs
Of scandal with relish aud appre.
citation, and even the mothers o.
girls are not ashamed to believe
and repeat stories against their
dear friends daughters which may
bave no foundation in fact, and
which, even if true, they have no
means Of proving and testing
