Having nothing but greenbacks paid them for
their wages (which ninnunt when cashed to the
pitiful sum of 89 per month), they had the un
paralleled impudence to ask the question,
4iouhl they come in for their legal tenders.
They wero politely but firmly toid that nothing
(tut the hard cash could open the doors of the
Church on this especial occasion, as the Soci

this the soldiers grumbled somewhat, Inasmuch
as some of their number had been regular at
tendants nt the Sabbath School, and onn bad
been a teacher in said school. Well, I hope
there will be no legal teuderuess in the next
world.
1 Oov. Gibbs addressed the Union people of
this place Inst Friday evening, on the statu of
the country.
Though wo havo no more murders or rows
of consequence to record, the past week has
been an unusually, busy one. Look which way
yan might, pack trains and "honest miners''
were everywhere to be seen in fact, the town
has beeu and is literally jnmmed. It is esti
mated by persons posted that over one thou
nnd animals heavily loaded have left the
Dalles this week for lJoise and Canyon City,
mostly for the former place. The 0. S. N. Co.
were obliged to dispatch the Idaho and Iris to
the Cascades or Suuday, in order to keep even
with the great rush.

Available talent of the Pacilic coast (what will
San Francisco and Salem do?) is here, giving
entertainments at the extremely low price of
$1 to all parts of the houte and $lr0 for re

Judging from the amount of puffing iu the pa
lters, one would suppose the audience was com
posed entirely of editors.
On Friday morning, the mountains unrth
and west of this place appeared with an en
tirely new dress of spotless white. Not being
made of very desirable material, we were glad
to seo it stripped off by the venerable old fel
low called Sol, for short. Tbo grass is spring

thero will bo abundance fcr alt the animals
that mny travel eastward.
Onr town is pretty well filled with "snorts,"
who seem to drive a good trade. By the way,
Mr. Editor, did you ever hear of a game called
the "Great Havana Lattery," where the more
a niair jinls down the less ho takes op! One
nt least of your webfoot youths lately learned
something of the game here. Thinking he saw
a good opening, lie invested about $10 in less
than half that number of minutes, and then
wisely concluding that the dealer knew more of
the gamn than be did, withdrew, a sadder mid
wiser man. 1 am credibly informed that he is
not the only webfoot who has contributed to the
banking stores of tbo Dulles snorts.

In Norfolk thero is a society called "Perfec
tionists,' and In their behalf some ton or twelve
of their number have lately addressed a letter
to the Commanding General of that Depart
ment, setting forth their objections to swearing
alleginnce to any earthly Government. The
subject was disposed of by General Butler In
tho following characteristic manner :
llnADnuiuTKitj or 18th Ahht Corn,
Fokt Morning, Va., January 13,
J. F. Dozicr, E. II. Beastly, and others:
Gentlkmbn: I have read your petition to
General Humes, setting forth your objections
to swearing allegiance to any earthly govern
ment. The first reason which you set forth is, that
"all human governments are a necessary evil,
and are continued iu existence only 1y the per
mission of Jehovah, until the time arrives for
tho establishment nf His kingdom, nnd in the
establishment of which till others will be sub
ducd unto it, thus fulliling that declaration in
the 8lh of Daniel and )4lh verse," &o.
You therein establish to your own satisfaction
three points :
First. The Government, although an evil,
is n necessary one. Second. That for a time
it Is permitted to exist by the wisdom of Jeho
vah. Third. That tho time at which a period
is to ho put to its existence is not yet come.
Therefore you ought to swear alleciatico to
the Government of tho United States I
r irst Because, tlmuirh unovil, vou admit it
to be necessary.
Second -AllhouL'h an evil, run admit that it
is permitted by tho wisdom of Jehovah, and it
is not for his creatures to question the wisdom
of Ilia nets.
Third You only olsim to be excused when
Jehovah's government is substituted, which po-
nuu, jou uuimt, mis ihh yet nrriveu.

French Opinion op Piiksiiiknt Lincoln.
The Pnris Correspondent of the New York
Times writes:
The popularity of Mr. Lincoln has been as
much advanced abroad by his late acts ns in the
United States. His maintenance of the act of
emancipation in his annual message has given
immense satisfaction tn nil those not prejudiced
by special reasons for the rebellion, and bis sa
gacity, straightforwardness and hon.nily in the
midst of such coufnsiou nnd excitement called
from M. Lnhnulayo the other duy at the College
de Franco before an immense audience ol the
elite of the int. Ilectiiul world, tho exclamation
that Mr. Lincoln was "a greater man than Ca
sar !" So, too 1 heard a leading French poli
tician say lately : "Yon Americans don't ap
preciate Mr. Lincoln at bis proper value. No
monarch in Kornpo could curry on such a co
lossal war in front while harassed by so many
fictions and fault-liuders behind. No, you
don't give him his due." From an Kuropeau
point of view the merit of Mr. Lincoln is, in ef
fect, immense; but iu a republic it is the people
ana not me rresiueiu who carry on tlie war.
The personal compliment paid lo Mr. Lincoln
in the iibore remarks is, however, none the less
valuable, and on every aide I hear people bi giu
to say that Mr. Lincoln will merit more than a
birgraphy hu will merit a history.
Tub New Paciiio Mail Route. The bill
introduced by Mr. M'lirido of Oregon in the
House provides for a daily mail by four-horse
stages from Fort Bridgcr, iu Utah, to Dalles
Cltv. Orecou.
The run to runs through a region hitherto
considered the Heart ol tlie American wilder
ness, bnt now lined with a population of about
serctity-nve thousand. It passes through the
most important mining portion ol Idaho and
Eastern Oregon ; and these regions contain the
most productive placer mines on the western
slope to the navigable waters of the Columbia
Kiver.
It is claimed that this mail will supply the
populaliou of the Willamette Valley apont 10
ilars sooner man ny toe present route via Uali-
furuia, aud in a proportionally less time for the
interior. I he lull has tieeu relerrcd to the
Post-Office Committee.
t7 Little Jeremy says he finds it painful to
"open issue with one who professes to be a co
worker in the democratic cause."
TJiat accounts for hit never having opened
issue with Jeff Davit and the rebels. lie does
not find it at at all difficult to open issue bitter
ly with all who strive to tare tho Union.

followt : '
HmDQ.UARTr.ns Dkpaktmkkt or thr l'icinr)
Sackamkkto, Feb. li, 1104. (
Sis : la the debate in the Assemblr. a few
days since, I observe that my name, as well as
that of my Adjutant-General, Colonel Drum,
has been mentioned in connection with tlio res
olution then under coutiderutiou. I have serv
ed nearly twelve years on this coast, a portion
of the time in coinmnnd of the District and
Deniirtmeut of Oreiroti. anil for the nnst two
ami a half years in command of the Depart
ment in mo f auilio. anil this is tlio brst time
that my loyalty or devotion to tho Union has
ever been called iu question. My Department
is of vast dimensions, extending from the Brit
ish i-ossessious in tlie north to tlio borders ol
the Republic of Mexico iu (lie south, and from
the Pacific Ocean on tiio west tn the Rocky
Mountains, including the great States of Cali
fornia and Oregon, with thn Territories of
Wofliingiou, Iduho and Nevada, Utah, and a
portion uf Alizoiiu a nullum of square miles,
with about sixty militury stations, some nt them
more than two thousand miht apart. To those
unacquainted with the routine of military du
ties, it is dillicult lo impress the fact that it re
quires the most untiring labor and watchful
ness to keep all these posts supplied and lo
distribute live tin uuud troops over such an
extent of country so as to alfurd protection for
remote settlers "gainst hnslilu Indians and at
the sutLe time to bo prepared to meet foes from
without or trai ors within. I certainly feel
gratified that ull my acts since I assumed com-
maun oi tins Department have received tlie
most unqualified approval uf my Government.
Identified us I am with the people on this coast
I havo lubored most assiduously to preserve
peace nnd quiet ; and I point with pride to the
present condition of alfairs in this Department.
I nave not attempted to please all, but, guided
by what I believe to bo for thn beat interests of
the country, I have pursued a coarse whioh
thus far I have aeon no cause to reirret.
Aa for Col. Drum and the other officers of
my stall, tueir loyalty is too well established to
be injured by fault liuditig politicians. As for
injnelf, I shall never stoop to defend my loyal
ly. 1 am not to bo rcatl out of the Union
ranks. I have served lung, iu peace and in
war; I have fought and bled under tlie old
flag ; and if I could harbor i thuuirhL aava for
the honor of that flag, and the prosecution of
una ar mint tne rebellion is entirely crushed,
the very Green Mountains of my native State
would rise op in judgment again-1 uie.

The Vigilance Committee still In Full Blast
at Bannock Four More Men Hanged.
The Union Vedette, published at Camp
Douglas, uear Salt Lake City, of 15th February
says :
From Mr. Arbour, who arrived in the city on
Friday evening from Bannock, having made
the trip in 20 days, with three companions, we
learn the following additional particulars of the
doings of tho Vigilance Couimitteo since our
lust report. The Committee still continues its
work of ridding the country of the desperadoes
to long infesting it. A man named Skinner,
proprietor of the Giilbrailh Saloon in Ban
nock, Itiil Buntin, brother of Samuel Buutin,
lately killed in Salt Lake City by Lnoo ; and
Alexander Carter, wore arrested by the Com
inittec, Carter broke from his keepers, and while
attempting to escape, was shot dead. After
wards Iiuntin and Skinner were taken out aud
hung at or near Bitter Root Valley. Two men.
names unknown to our informant, wore seized
nt Rattlesnako Creek and huug. They are said
to have beeu ranchmen iu league with the out
laws. A portion of the Committeo had goue to
ward Fort I'enti n on the Missouri river, in pur
suitof some of the gang said to have escaped iu
that direction.
Mr. Arbour experienced no troublo north of
Snake riv?r, from snow, where tho roads aro
open and in good condition. This side of that
point the snow in many placet bad blocked up

Jekkeiison City, Ogn, Feb. 20, 'CL
Ei. Statesman Since the formation of our
Union Club at tbit place wo have met with de
cided success; upwards of eighty names arc
nlretdy attached to the roll, with a gradual in
crease at each meeting. Onr club fully couonra
in the opinion that we want uo guin-elaatio
platform tn be stretched or contracted to euit
occasion ; no caucuses tn acliemo lor political
advantage; no resolution-mongers to cover up
and conceal where loyalty leaves oir and trea
son begins; but a united' people of all parties
acting in concert to cry out against, wid drive
this nicked rebellion beyond the boundaries of
civilization. Neither do wo think that the
Government can be sustained and encouraged,
or treason arrested aud rebuked by giving the
rebellion one blow and the administration two.
We think the administration should be strength
ened hy the popular arm, and its energies
nerved by the exhibition of a people's will, un
til the victory over the modern Amelckiles is
completed. We ask not whether our glorious
edifice would be beat governed or cared for by
Deinocrals or T ptihlicaue. But whether it
should he sustained for the common enjoyment
of all, or given tn the incendiary's torch, or
rnr.ed to ita foundation for thn gratification of
an unholy ambition which, failing to govern,
would fain dralroy ; because they would "rath
er reign in hell than serve iu heaven. Our
purpose is to adhere to ancient faith, "The
L'uiou must aud shall ho preserved."
ONE OF THE CLUB.
Tir.nKL Demand for Fiack. The Raleigh
(North Carolina) Progress says :
"Peaoo alone o n prevent starvation. It is
folly ti tilk to us about there being enough sup
plies in Hie country. Such is not the fact, and
those who adhere to such a proposition will
find out, when it is too late, that they have
been mistaken. a
We lell the people and the authorities thnt
the present condition of things cannot aud will
not last. The masses uf tlie honest, hard
working people h ive been deceived and mis
led long enough, nnd they will not suffer and
endure always, Peaoo they want, and peace
they will have, if not open such terms as the
leaden who have betrayed them desire, upon
such terms as they themselves shall prescribe.
The rich may house their moat and bread, hut
we tell them it will nut remain with them un
less the poor can bo provided for. The uinsole
of the country will not starve while thero is
bread in the laud.
Peace, such a peace at a la teamen tnd hon
est rulers might obtain for ns, would give ns
an abuudanoe of all creature coin forts at rea
sonable prices would reward honest toil with
an abundant harvest; but war, a continuation
of tlie war will rob us of all social and political
righta, tnd make the many the alares of the
few.
Every man who is now for war, In prefer
ence to decided steps by both Confederate and
State authorities looking to peice. regardless of
age or condition, should at once enter the army;
lor there is but mis war in which our ruin ciin
be made thorough and complete, aud that it to
continue the war. We believe' that a peace
can lie made that the worm win consider hon
orable, and that tbuse who assume to rule ns
ought In take steps nt once lu make it, fur
enough baa hern sniU ny tlie enemy to satisly
all reasonable men that they would gladly re
move ilia quarrel from the tword mid refer it
