Letter From Olympla.
The following '.-letter, dated Olympia,
W. T., July 24th, 1863, received by, a
gentleman of this city from a former
well known resident of Albany, although
not intended for publication, contains so
much information , in relation to Wash
ington Territory and other matters of
interest, that we publish it in full :
I arrived here several days ago, and
havo kept myself pretty busy in hunting
a hole to jump in. It required but a
short time aFtcr my arrival here to learn
that Olympia would not do for mc, there
being no life hero except that which
whisky can produce. It i the Terri
torial capital, and the center for the
aristocracy. I. havo counted six build
ings in course of. election, and abjut as
ukiuj, mua w uo tue work as it takes
shingles to cover them. Ileal testate is
held very high here, owing, I suppose,
to the expectation that the ' terminus "
will reacii here sometime; but when the
tide is out, a vessel cau't come within
two miles of. tho place a high old ter

steamer to bteslaeoom, a distance of
thirty miles down the Sound. I found
this once very thriving town at the pres-
they draw too much water to run up the
river.
I had about made up my miud that it
would be useless for me to wait here for
the good time to come, and had made
arrangements to take the back track for
the Columbia river I could return to
Westport, and get something to do there
sure. Cut before taking this final step,
I proposed to Johu - Leonard (who has
accompanied me in' all my travels, aud
has shown commendable grit, by de
claring he would stay righ here till
better times and the terminus is found,)
that we take a trip over to Tumwater,
two miles' back of Olympia, and what we
s-iw and did over thre will be the sub
ject of another letter.

year borrow all the money we want at
four or four and one-half per cent., and

Lngland expresses the opinion - that a
loan at four and one-half per cent., could

next stopping jdaee was Seattle, thirty
miles still lower dowu the Sound. This
place has a most magnifiee.it harbor, and
the town looks very pretty. There is a
monster saw-mill, just completed,-light
on the wharf, and two large vessels from
'Frisco were taking in lumber. I found j

there are not more than fivo hnnil.i

that number of squaws parading the

others were not quite so narticnlar.
I met at Seattle many old friends.
Among fhe number was Rogers, who
looked twenty years younger than when
we used to know him I didn't notice
scarcely a grey hair. He obtaiued work
on the saw-mill, and when it was com

there is an outside demand for any kind
of labor in this Territory. There seems
to be work for the old settlers, but tl e
hotels, stages and steamers are crowded
with new ones ready to jump at anything.
Seattle, like all others towns on the
Sound, holds real estate very high on
account of the expected terminus.
I spent a part of two days trying to
find some one who knew where Tacoma
was. One said it was ten miles below
Olympia. So I went to the stable to get
a horse to ride down there, when the
hostler informed me that tho town was
located thirteen-miles below Steilacooro.
That information flattened me out I

some chuck hole where nobody goes.
The steamers do not stop there, neither
is there a post office..

Telegraphic Summary.
New York, July 26. The Herald 's
Madrid special says the last Carlist out
break, so long expected, has occurred.
Five hundred well drilled troops, under
Sabariegos, have taken the field near
Conrad.
A battle took place in the morning, in
which it is reported tho Carlist party lost
one hundred killed and wounded. Only
three Government officers were killed.
Near the town of Manzaneres. a stron
party of Carlists made some demonstra?
tion. They subsequently succeeded in
intercepting railroad trains and cuttin"
telegraph wires. J
The latest accounts state that 4,000
Carlists arrived in the Province of La
Mancha. Government troops have been
dispatched to the scene of action.
- The agitation is general throughout
the whole country. The people are very
much excited over the late news.
No further hostilities have yet been
reported, although it is feared a general
uprising may be expected all over Spain,
now that Don Carlos has ercorl J
frontier and opened communication with
Ins numerous partisans. -

Company have been able, by buildin-
light draught boats, to make regular

A UiiiD Sroav. The Russian River
Flog relates the following remarkable
bird story :
We are informed by Mr. John Mulli
gan and he will vouch for the accuracy
of the story that about a month ago, a
small bird, a 1 i net, took . possession of a
large-toy windmill which whirls as an
ornament on the top of his tin shop. The
mill is made nearly in the shape of an
e. is about two leet hi-h, and is placed
vertically. While it was still, the bird
entered between the wings or fans, and
commenced operations on a nest j laid
eggs and finally hatched them on the
whirl. Those acquainted with this part
of the State know that the wind is almost
constantly blowing, except early in the
morning, so that our windmill was not
often at rest. Now that her four birds
were hatched, how could she get them
out ? She soon solved the question. Out
she flew, and quickly returned with a
long string. Watching her chance, in
she went with one end of the string, and
the other naturally became entangled
around the shaft, and soon the machinery
carce to a dead lock. Rejoicing at hor
success, she triumphantly departed,takin"
along her brood. j . .
Wasn't there a little salt on the end of
that string f .
