A HUE LEGAL POINT, Shall Delegates From Territories; Hold Tneir Seats ; AFTER STATES ARE FORM EI. Special to I'm: Asrouus.l Washixoto.v, July 13. The ques tion of the right of Messrs. Carey ami DuIkiIs. who came to this congress ha ileleirates from the territories of "Wyoni- in" ami ItLnho res;;ectivelv, to hokl their seats as such daligalca until Wyoming and Idaho send representa tives here, is likely to be raised very soon in the house. Iu this connection, Hairy Smith, journal clerk ol the house, calls attention to a preceuent that came up in congress years ago. ; It was the case of Paul Fearing, i .1rtlrt.rr,to frnr.1 llio 7inrf hwostnni lorri- from the northwestern terri- the seventh congress. The of Fearing's right to a"seat in nirna micoriiiviynvis. of ICmi. torj, in nnnsfmn t he Iwnsc was raised by Davis, of Ken-1 tucl iuckv, who, on the 31st of November, I IS02, offered the following resolution, -:,. . 1S02, "hamlaxl. That inasmuch :u the t late territory of the United btatcs, northwest of the river' Ohio, have by virtue or an act of congress, passed IMay 1, 1802, framed a constitution and state government, and have there by ami by virtue ot r.u act of congress, after the "said had become a separate and independent slate by the name of Ohio, th.tt Paul Fearing, a member of this !wuse, who was dected by the late territorial government of the ter ritory northwest ot the river Ohio, is no longer entitled to a scat in this house."' That resolution was referred on December 11, 1802, to the committee on election, which committee on the 1st ot January, thereafter, made the following report, viz: "Jtatolced, that Paul Fearing, a delegate from the territory northwest of the river Ohio, is still entitled io a scat in this house." The report was not acted on, bnt Fearing, who had taken his scat at the commencement of the session, Dec. (!, 1802, held his seat until the expiration of congrens on the -llh ot March, 18015, and drew pay for that session. Ohio was admitted on the 29lh of Novem ber. 1S02, and yet Mr. Fearing served as delegate through the second session of the seventh congress, which began Dec 5, 1802. The law in respect to the election of delegates is covered by section No. 18G2, ot tho revised statutes, which is in part as follews: "Every territory shall have the right to send a delegate to the house of representatives of the United Stales, to serve during caeh congress." It is understood that when Carev or Dubois ask recognition to speak or to make a motion, the iuisiio:i or order will be raised :ts to the tight b mtiKt sucti a motion and wu. iu ie- refcrrcd to tho committee on judiciary S'rolKibilities in the Scnuie.

The "PatliMer" Has Crossed, to tie Mnown Shore. -I SHORT SKETCH OF HIS I.IFE. Special by TiiiS 0ited Pukss. Nex' York, July 13. General John C. Fremont is dead. For several years he has resided in Los Angeles, Cat, with his wife, for merly Miss Jessie Benton, daughter of the noted senator, Col. Thomas H. Benton. Gen. John Charles Fremont was born in Savannah, Ga., Jan 21, 1813. His father was a French immi grant. He received a good education, though left an orphan when four years old, and when seventeen years old graduated at Charleston college, S. C; taught mathematics; turned his at tention to engineering, and was rec ommended to the government to be employed in the Mississippi survey. Ho afterwards served at Washington in constructing maps of that region. Having received the commission of a lieutenant of engineers, he proposed to the war department to penetrate the Kocky mountain region. His plan was approved, and in 1S12 he explored the South Pass. Soon after he planned a new expedition to Oregon. He approached the mountains by a new route, examined the region south of the South Pass, turned aside to the Great Salt Lake and connected his expedition with that of Wilkes's ex pedition. He also conducted another party, which discovered new and grand features in Alta California, the great basin called by his name, tho Sierra Nevada, tho San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys, and determined much of tho geography of the far west ern regions. In 1815 he was again on the road to the Pacific to examino in detail tho Pacific slope a journey which resulted in giving many new facts of importance to the world, and indeed gave California to the United States. After the conquest ot upper California, in xvhich ho bore a con spicuous part, he was involved in a quarrel between two other officers, and was deprived of his commission by sentence of a court-martial. The president offered to reinstate him, but he declined.

As tho lieu tenant was walking along the street one night in it driving rain storm he heard tho plaintive cries of a little kitten straggling in a gutter with only its head above water. He rescued the kitten and carried it aboard ship. It became a great favorite among the men and officers, and thdy taught him many tricks. Ho always shook hands when invited to do so by his friends. Tom has displayed considerable in telligence for a cat. Three times he has been lost from the steamer, but he always manages to return in good shape. Once he was left at Port Angeles and w;is not seen for six weeks, when the ship calling at the wharf, ho demurely walked aboard and commenced shaking hands with the men. He was also left at lrondale and at tho Seattle coal bunkers, but he invariably wailed near the xvharf and returned to tho ship at the first opportunity. -Seattle J'ress'. The Tia Plate Monopoly. The rumor that an English syndi cate has raised a fund of nearly" $1, 000,000 to defeat the tin plate clause in tho Mclvinley bill is plansiblo. The importations of tin plate into tho United States amount to ox-cr $20, 000.000 annually. To manufacture that tin plate gives employment to something like 30,000 people. What is sold hero for tin plato is nine-tenths iron and steel. The men who can make it and sell that much iron and steel for tin can certainly afford to pay liberally to fix the laws "or the United States so that the generous workers of tins country, xx'ho are accustomed to living wages, cannot compete with I the poorly paid female labor of Corn-1 tin plate in England and Wales is carried on principally by machinery ran by women and little" girls. Halt Lake Tribune. A IUx tjtiek of Timber. Captain L. Farnham, a pioneer lumberman of Seattle, who landed there thirty-one years ago, direct from i China, says: ''The biggest -tick of ' timber ever cut on Paget round was gotten out at the Port Gamble mill ten years afio. It xx-a- li' ftvt in length, and 30x3(5 men:1- .ic,Hr. It i was shipped to China, xxhi-.v- t xxas enc up into spans lor Dr. i-o . i on board the vessel om xvt.ich it a as wo shipped. The timber prolru led over both the bow and the stern. I think ' that it might be possible to get out one perhaps ISO feet long, 30x30 inches square at tho small euu. bucn a stick could not be found near the coast, however. One would have to go into the interior for it. A great deal of care would have to be exercised in cutting it, to prex'ent its breaking when it fell. If such a stick were cut I have no doubt it would be the largest piece of timber ever cut in the world." The occupants of New York tene ment houses spend the hot nights upon the roofs, and so many of them have rolled off and made bad messes of themselves on the sidewalks that there is talk of a city ordinance re quiring landlords to erect railings around, the roofs.

Special by The TJsitxd Press. London, July 13. Just as the steam ship City of Rome was pulling up anchor to leave Liverpool for New York to-day Mrs. Frank Leslie sent ashore- the following despatch : "I am not engaged, but am starting,, for home to-day to attend my work and prepare for my lecture season." Deluve's attempt this time to force Mrs. Leslie into marrying him was an actual sensation. The new snrjerin- tendent register of Hanover square, St George's district, was ready with a license waiting to marry them this morning at 9 o'clock, but when Deluve went to Mrs. Leslie's nnnrrmfint in the Burlington hotel, to his chagrin tho marquis found that Mrs. Leslie's trunks were on the hotel omnibus, and just starting for America. He wanted to get into the omnibus with her, but she would not let him, and he followed ner m a nansom cab to Eustan station, and went on the same train to Liver pool. - His persistent persecution ef: Mrs. Leslie this season has been more marked than ever. A short time ago he gave a reception at his apartmente and was in straits how to decorate them. He sent to Liberty, the cele brated art fabric dealer for specimens of decorations which he said he want ed to purchase. This he spread over his apartments in fine array just as the guests had assembled. Then Liberty's man came along with an order to take the goods away unless the marquis purchased 1CX) worth. The baffled marquis purchased this amount for cash and the goods 'were allowed to remain over night The marquis had previously worked tins game with success, but Liberty was too much for him the second time. TIIK BRITISH All'AKEKliXG. Canadian Coast Defenses arcBc inpr Strengthened. Special to Tub Astokian.i Ottaxx-a, Ont, July 13. Within the last month there has-been a great deal of correspondence between the British and Dominion governments regarding the defences of Canada. Fortifications at Halifiax are being greatly strength ened by tho British government, and the strictest injunctions have been given to prevent any outsider gaining admittance to the forts or knowledge of the improvements that are being carried out Tho naval defences of the Atlantic seaboard have been strengthened by the arrival of two large torpedo boats at Halifax from England. This week on the Pacific coast the defences of British Columbia are being strengthened, and several pieces of modern and heavy ordnance will arrive there from England for the defence of theprovinces shortly. The tleet congregated at Esquimalt is the largest ever in that section, and the idea of establishing a naval reserve at Esquimalt, recruited from the British navy, is revived from head quarters at Ottawa. An order ha3 gone ont to several deputy adjutant generals to furnish full information regarding the condition ot the forces and the defences of their respective districts. That the British authorities arcawakening from that state of lethargy which has always character ized their sympathies toward Canada is most apparent, whilo the local or Dominion authorities are showing no less activity in preparing for any events.
