Mitchell which continued for more tsrai ten years and terminated upon Mr. Mitch ell's election to the United States Sen ate. He was appointed City Attorney for the city of Portland, in October, 1864, and held that position about one and one half years, during which time lie prepared and proposed important a- mendments to the city charter, hich were afterwards adopted, and also re- vised for publication the .ordinances of the city.
