In the August number of the New Eng

Whitman in Boston, by Sylvester Baxter,
we find he was New Yorker 10y birth,
showing his admiration for that city in
verse as no other poet has ever done. But
to Boston and Emerson he owed his rise in
the literary scale and here, too, he had the
greatest number OF admirers as well as be-
ing ancestrally connected with the Boston
neighborhood. Walt Whitman's Democ-

easily understood by the masses. In PRO

OF boys who are not quick in books but

do anything with their boys Sin general"
but because that is the boys place. The

as will cheaper or facilitate commerce
and be Of general benefit to the country" The
other resolution, BY +. D. Johnson. OF Walla

and approve the efforts OF our delegates In con-
gress to secure liberal appropriations for these
purposes" Andrew +. Burleigh, the King
county member OF the committee, introduced
the following, which was rejected:
Resolved That we recognize the importance to
our people OF the improvement of our rivers
and harbors, and that we especially commend
as worthy of the attention of congress the
and of Puget sound. and OF the ship canal con-
Meeting Puget sound with Lake Washington:
that we condemn the action of the
Democratic House OF Representative in re-
fusing an appropriation for the opening
OF the Columbia river and the Lake Washington

Representative Wilson In their advocacy of
those measures; that we are heartily in favor OF
the speedy opening to settlement OF the Puy-
allup and other Indian reservations within this
state.

as they pleased and that they had resolved to
murder in furtherance OF this plan.

trouble began. and that they began
hostilities. District Attorney Wood for the

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. 1n-The city was
thrown into . state Of intense excitement when
the announcement appeared in the morning pa
pers that Governor Buchanan had committed
the sentence OF Colonel II. Clay King. who was
to have been hanged on the 18th inst.
for the murder OF D. II. Posten.
to Imprisonment for life. The Appeal
in this mornings issue criticised severely the
act of the governor in committing the sentence,
and the Erenfng Scimitor vehemently denounces
him in sensational editorial These publica-
tions aroused intense feeling, and q mass
meeting was arranged for tonight. at
which Governor Buchanan was to be
hung in efigy. It was stated that the Jail
would be attacked and tho prisoner lynched.
So great was the anxiety that Criminal Judge
Dubois issued an order late this evening for the
sheriff of Shelby county to deliver King to
the keeper OF the penitentiary at Nashville.
Sheriff McLennan took King from Jail this
evening and left the city on the Chesapeake &
Ohio railroad, en- route to Nashville. Friends
of King were seen with the party. and there are
some fears of attempted escape. A Louisville &
Nashville train leaves at $50 tonight and con.
meets with the train carrying the prisoner at
Mckenzie at 8 a. m. 1t il rumored that friends
of PostOn will take this train and overtake the
prisoner, and If they do there will doubtless be
another tragedy. At 10 .. m. . severe rainstorm
prevailed. After the rain had subsided crowd

SENATOR ALIENS INDUSTRY.
Puyallup Bill to BE Passed in December
characterization for SURVEYS.

WASHINGTON CITY, Aug. 10.-[Spcial lat the
beginning of the second session of the Fifty
second congress Senator Allen will be prepared
to push through with q great deal OF rapidity
certain legislation that it was impossible to pass
at the session of congress just closed One of
the first measures that will claim Senator Aliens
attention is the Puyallup Indian reservation bill.
1t will be remembered that the senator made a
most energetic fight to get the bill through
this session, but the time was so limited after
the measure had been reported that 1t was inn
possible to get it up for consideration except for
a debate upon one day. While Senator Allen
fought very hard to get vote on the bill it was
impossible to do SO, and the next best course
for him to pursue was to have some day set
apart for its consideration early next session.
This he succeeded in doing and the second
Wednesday after congress reconvenes the Puyal-
lup measure Will be taken up and the bill prob
ably be passed.
Another thing which Mr.. Allen will work for
at the next session is an increase over the ap-
Precipitation OF this session for public surveys.
He made great fight this year to get the appro.
priation increased and succeeded to some ex-
tent, but is not satisfied with what he secured
and believes that at the short session he will be
able to do very much better in this line.
The senator has but few other measures OF
local Importance to his state now unpassei, and
after securing what he wants for his own state
next year, will again come to the front as one of
the leading advocates of the Nicaragua canal
bill The senator, it will be remembered, made
most eloquent speech, delivered in the Senate
at this session in favor of that measure, and his
claims, set forth in that speech, have had a
great deal OF effect upon his colleagues and
have awakened aew interest in this great
dertaking 1t is probable that the bill
will meet with opposition in the
Senate end, and that it will be
a very hard fight if it Is passed. Mr.. Allen.
however, believes that the construction OF this
canal will bo of great benefit to the state of
Washington and to the Pacific Northwest, as
well as to the entire country For this reason
he will devote all the time that can be spared
from his local work in pushing this matter. At
this time he believes that he will succeed. He
has SO much faith in the canal matter that he
does not see how it will be possible for repre-
ssntatives In congress to antagoniZs or vote
against so important an undertaking.

WASHINGTON CITY, Aug. l0.-fspeciaL ,-sena-
tor Allen was asked today il the claim made by
certain politicians in Washington was true, that
Pierce county had not Jared we'll other
counties in the matter of federal. patronage.
The senator smiled at the query. and remarked
that he thought the records would prove that
the assertion was untrue. With the assistance
of senator Allen the Washington dele
CATION has succeeded in securing for
Pierce county the following federal prizes:
United States marshall, conceded to be one OF
the best federal Offices in the state; assistant
United states attorney, at a good salary; deputy
collector of customs, az salary of $1,000 per
annum, and consul general at Kanagava, Japan.
This list shows that no county in the state has
Jared better than Pierce.

deavoring to have the free delivery system es-
tabished, instead of the poor mail facilities
said to be afforded by the Wapato postoifice.
