SItUWATU BAT A»» BAB. fPacific Journal] The bar at the entrance of Shoal- ! **t«r Bay is sadly in need of aa ade I qu*t« bnoy system, and it should be fol- 1 lowed up over the entire bay. Vbere is : much dissatisfaction among tua men and others who are compelled to go in ' and out frequently. with the manner in which the buovs are laid. The outside buoy is tnree miles out of the way; and ' it would not be surprising for a strang- er coming in. in followins the course of such buoy, to meet a similar fate of the Lamertaw. It is considered bv Cap- tains who are thoroughly familiar with the Columbia. Gray's Harbor and Shoal water. th it the latter bar is farsu perior to the others for several reasons, the principal one of which is its straight channel and depth of water. We hffve twenty feet of water at low tide, and if the chnnn 1 waa marked in a proper manner, there would be no possible danger arising from any cause. The department should see that its officers pai<) to look after the interests of its merchant marine, do their duty, or put some one who willor can in their stead, i The Shubrick is supposed t* look after ! this district with a watchful eye, but no oftener than once a year are we treated with a sight of her oomely shape. We are aware that the hardships beredita- ble to the oommaud of that ancient craft are appalling. The intricate uav- i igatiou between Astoria, Sand Island < and Cape Hanoock is indeed trying, but we doubt not th it a man could be fonnd 1 who would withstand the pressure. We have a remedy whereby the diffioultyon Shoalwater bar oan he obviated and at the same time not be compelled to oall on the overtaxed Shabriok. If permis- sion oan be had from the department, the tugs now plying on the bay will properly mark the channels by placing >he buoys in their proper positions. Shoalwater Bay it but little known to the outside world, and in the majority of oases where it is known, it is looked npon as a body of water of little or no importance. In reality it presents greater facilities for shipping purp >ses, . and is easier of acoess than any other like bay on the coast. Its channels are wide and deep, allowing vessels draw- ing eighteen feet of .water ample sea room. Many of the ohannels. however, are not baoyed, and their oourse is only known to those who are thoroughly familiar with the bay. and even to such persons it beoomes hazardous to navi- gate at times, without any marks of gmdanoe other than the lead line. These ohannels should be marked by bnoys. and the outside bar buoy should be " changed to the right position, also a numl>er of others ludioating the chan- * nel more distinctly all the way in. The * shipping interests demand it, and it j shonld lie seen to forthwith, by those detailed to look after this district. C-jrr. PoST-INTrLLKiKNCKH MISCELLANEOUS. W T. SHARP*. W. J|. COFTMAX. C. H.

I>utton regards the people as of East Indian origin, from the fact that w_hen Capt. Cook visited the Islands, in 17«i>, the pis, the dog and the heu w*re their domestic animal*. They were nev- er savages, in the popular of the term. I hey were a brown skinned raoe, with robust physique, straight hair and regular features. Their earliest known state of society was a feudal system as perfect as that of Europe in the teutb aud eleventh centuries. Ihe king was lord paramount and his will absolute: under him were chiefs who owed him allegiance; these chiefs in turn reeeived homage from petty lords. This was a state of vassalage, to be sure, but they seem to have had more liberty of will than under the Norman regime. There was a priesthood who rnled supreme. The Captain paid a glowing tribute to the Kamehameha dynasty as men of royal intellect, tact and suavity. Kane- hameha first peroeived that the most prosperous government was that in which Church and State let each other alone. A marvelous discovery, certain- ly. for oue who for the first time wel- comed the white man to his native shores. In his reign the missionaries, men of tact and wisdom, first oame to the Islands: and Kamehameha, having destroyed the power of the native priest- hood, lent a willing ear to the propa- gandists of the new faith. Accepting it himself, he educated his people up to the point that, when be lay a corpse, his wi low and son deliberately broke the "taboo." No outbreak followed, be- cause the people no longer believed that death would follow any disregard of " taboo,'* and Kamehameha 11. had only to complete what his father had begun. Th-it thp raoe is dying out, the oensus returns plainly indicate; but Capt. Dut- tou believes it is owing to the faot that easy, indolent, pleasure-loving Hawaii- aus, uniike most tropical raoes, have no special love for offspring, and a decrease of the birth rate, not the introduction of the white race nor inorease of death rate, is the true cause of the decline of the Hawaiian people. ft>t<,Wof>«i 1851. \oHcdgc y fyavh Sj (Sc. c/mpcztino *"2 l Ytcfoalc nqghh v>tc. f Pics. an J £"l cheat Shed <2*x. ?lci:fi. j! &citfand, Oitflcn. \u25a0 Equality of sexes in labor."

NII.KH, A colored crank, is trying to persuade the President sf the feasibility of giv- ing np certain lands in the West to form a future Stats for the exclusive oocu pauuy of his. raoe. Unfortunately for Ntles aud bis pet scheme, neither Presi- dent, Congress nor people see it in that light. We believe the oolored people will have to emigrate, as President Lin- coln years ago advised, notwithstanding the ciontrary opiuiou of Fred. Doaglas; but we don't believe it wise or p ditio to make any distinction based ou color. The Afrio-Americaus are simply citizens of the United States, with the same po- litical rights and privileges as German, Irish, Scotch or Dutob-Amerioatis, and chould be treated exactly on the same principles. WASHINGTON TKHBITOUY ISTKUKMIH Are beginning to be freely discussed at dinner jwrtit n and social gatherings, a fact which shows an tucreasiug inter- est iu our namesake on the Pacific eoast. Delegate Brents. Mr. Metoalfe of Se- attle and Mr. Kuhn made arguments tie- fore the Committee on Hallways and Canals ou Monday morning, of ooarse in favor of the bill to aid in the con- struction of a canal between Lakes Union and Washington and Paget Sound. They also read before this committee telegraphic memorials from the Seattle Chaml>er of Commerce, the City Conuoil and Commissioners of King county, whioh were accepted with a great deal of lutereet. Satisfactory explanations were given of the salient features of the bill aud the necessity and importance of tbe oanal as a publio highway. The committee agreed to re- port the bill with some slight amend metits proposed by Mr. B. aud agreed to by Mr. M. Your Delegate al o made an argument before the Senate Committee ou Terri- tories iu favor of tbe bill for tbe admis- sion of the Slate of Washington. The oo mm it lee requested him to appear be- fore them again today, and, while we write. Washington as a State is being thoroughly discussed. It was brought upon Friday last; thus society aud some newspapers bad ail opportunity to dis- cuss the matter over Sabbath, The plan of your representative is first to pass it through the Seuate aud tUeu reach tbe House on the o.dendar from the House (Committee ou Territories. This com- mittee have already reported a substi- tute presented by Mr. Brents for tbe bills of Mr. Post of Wyoming and of Mr. 8., providing for four Judges in tbe Territories, which will, of course, be of great advantage to your people if it be- comes a law. '1 he U. S. mail service betweeu Seattle and Port Blakely has been increased to a daily mail after the first of next mouth. " Well, gentlemen, if nobody else will, I'll take the responsibility." "Goabead," said little rebel Mahoiie; " I'll hack you." The co merce of thin entire toy will doable if not treble within the next few yearn, and oar population will grow in like proportion. There in no use of dis- guising the fact, or in other words, "hiding onr light ander a bushel." in regard to the future importance of our small inland sea. Oar county, with her nomeroas rivers and fertile valleys, all having an outlet on the hay, has enough undeveloped resources to last an indefi- nite period. 1 lis a county not easily approachable, and its varied resources are likely to be deceiviug to a stranger, in fact they are beyond one's compre- hension nntil one becomes familiar with their surroundings. Not long since we had the pleasure of meeting a gentle- man from the East, who had been spending considerable time in looking over the Northwest, and especially this Territory. Among other things, he pud our couuty a very graceful com- pliment, and coming from the source it did. is decidedly flattering. He says that although he bad visited every county in the Territory he had failed to tind one that compared with Pacific county for abundance of resoaroes, scenery, climate, or future business prospects. We hafe long been of the opinion that this county presented more advantages than her sister oounties, bat were not inclined to make publicity of our oonviction ostentatiously, but were disposed to allow the olaims of this sec- tion to speak for itself. So, beoMise Kdmotuls withdrew his balf promise on account of his daugh- ter's health, and Logan was d*-ep in the Fit/. John Porter case, ttis River and Harbor bills, Ac., aud lost making a point with colorea people, and Hoar had aspirations which too much forwardness in this matter might injure?thus Jo tin Sherman tiecomes the sponsor of tue in- vestigation resolution. The New York Ihruld of Feb. 'M pub- lishes a scurrilous article upon Sherman fur his course. I'Uis is the mttel policy, to educate publio opinion through the press. Lamar and the other rebel ele meul kn.jw full well that Sherman's charges are true: hence the Southerners stand before the country otrireed with guilt they caunot deny, aud let their case go by default, not daring to touch it in the Semite, for " the offense is rank it smells to heaven." 'I he newspaper article referred to is said to have been written bv oue Mrs. Melt ride, a female onrpet bagger from Mississippi, appoint- ed by Secretary Sherman iu the Trea «ury department, out of pity for her utwd and distress, as well as ou ncoount of her claim of suffering so much down there for Kepublicauism: bat, surely, if this person is the writer, as is supposed, «h« is probably instigated by Senator Lauiar. who, naturally enough, desires to keep the Hherumii investigating com- mittee from Copiah county and Yazoo, aud endorses the wail of this uauielesH ?nter, who. as it nppeare, is well known to the regular oorrtwpondeut of that paper. FUKHITLKNT A mum's First public levee was held last Wednes- day evening. Feb tith, aud was graced l>v the lieunty and elite of Washington aucisty and also five chiefs of the Flat- bends, tl e guests of Delegate McGin- UH, royally arrayed in striped blaukets, beads, feathers and claws. Over three thousand people entered the doors of th« White Mouse aud made their exit through the window, the fashionable style uo adays to avoid a crush. This uttiijue method was first inaugurated in the days of President Lincoln, wheu citi/en soldiers played an important part in the dramatic and tragic as well aasocial affairs of lite. IHIOU T HM>.

    J. w. NII.KH,A colored crank, is trying to persuadethe President sf the feasibility of giv-ing np certain lands in the West to forma future Stats for the exclusive oocupauuy of his. raoe. Unfortunately forNtles aud bis pet scheme, neither Presi-dent, Congress nor people see it in thatlight. We believe the oolored peoplewill have to emigrate, as President Lin-coln years ago advised, notwithstandingthe ciontrary opiuiou of Fred. Doaglas;but we don't believe it wise or p ditio tomake any distinction based ou color.The Afrio-Americaus are simply citizensof the United States, with the same po-litical rights and privileges as German,Irish, Scotch or Dutob-Amerioatis, andchould be treated exactly on the sameprinciples.

    WASHINGTON TKHBITOUY ISTKUKMIH

    Are beginning to be freely discussed atdinner jwrtitn and social gatherings,a fact which shows an tucreasiug inter-est iu our namesake on the Pacificeoast.

    Delegate Brents. Mr. Metoalfe of Se-attle and Mr. Kuhn made arguments tie-fore the Committee on Hallways andCanals ou Monday morning, of ooarsein favor of the bill to aid in the con-struction of a canal between LakesUnion and Washington and PagetSound. They also read before thiscommittee telegraphic memorials fromthe Seattle Chaml>er of Commerce, theCity Conuoil and Commissioners ofKing county, whioh were accepted witha great deal of lutereet. Satisfactoryexplanations were given of the salientfeatures of the bill aud the necessityand importance of tbe oanal as a publiohighway. The committee agreed to re-port the bill with some slight amendmetits proposed by Mr. B. aud agreedto by Mr. M.

    Your Delegate al o made an argumentbefore the Senate Committee ou Terri-tories iu favor of tbe bill for tbe admis-sion of the Slate of Washington. Theoo mmitlee requested him to appear be-fore them again today, and, while wewrite. Washington as a State is beingthoroughly discussed. It was broughtupon Friday last; thus society aud somenewspapers bad ail opportunity to dis-cuss the matter over Sabbath, The planof your representative is first to pass itthrough the Seuate aud tUeu reach tbeHouse on the o.dendar from the House(Committee ou Territories. This com-mittee have already reported a substi-tute presented by Mr. Brents for tbebills of Mr. Post of Wyoming and ofMr. 8., providing for four Judges in tbeTerritories, which will, of course, be ofgreat advantage to your people if it be-comes a law.

    '1 he U. S. mail service betweeu Seattleand Port Blakely has been increased toa daily mail after the first of nextmouth.

    " Well, gentlemen, if nobody else will,I'll take the responsibility."

    "Goabead," said little rebel Mahoiie;" I'll hack you."

    The co merce of thin entire toy willdoable if not treble within the next fewyearn, and oar population willgrow inlikeproportion. There in no use of dis-guising the fact, or in other words,"hiding onr light ander a bushel." inregard to the future importance of oursmall inland sea. Oar county, with hernomeroas rivers and fertile valleys, allhaving an outlet on the hay, has enoughundeveloped resources to last an indefi-nite period. 1 lis a county not easilyapproachable, and its varied resourcesare likely to be deceiviug to a stranger,in fact they are beyond one's compre-hension nntil one becomes familiar withtheir surroundings. Not long since wehad the pleasure of meeting a gentle-man from the East, who had beenspending considerable time in lookingover the Northwest, and especially thisTerritory. Among other things, hepud our couuty a very graceful com-pliment, and coming from the source itdid. is decidedly flattering. He saysthat although he bad visited everycounty in the Territory he had failed totind one that compared with Pacificcounty for abundance of resoaroes,scenery, climate, or future businessprospects. We hafe long been of theopinion that this county presented moreadvantages than her sister oounties, batwere not inclined to make publicity ofour oonviction ostentatiously, but weredisposed to allow the olaims of this sec-tion to speak for itself.

    So, beoMise Kdmotuls withdrew hisbalf promise on account of his daugh-ter's health, and Logan was d*-ep in theFit/. John Porter case, ttis River andHarbor bills, Ac., aud lost making apoint with colorea people, and Hoar hadaspirations which too much forwardnessin this matter might injure?thus Jo tinSherman tiecomes the sponsor of tue in-vestigation resolution.

    The New York Ihruld of Feb. 'M pub-lishes a scurrilous article upon Shermanfur his course. I'Uis is the mttel policy,to educate publio opinion through thepress. Lamar and the other rebel elemeul kn.jw full well that Sherman'scharges are true: hence the Southernersstand before the country otrireed withguilt they caunot deny, aud let theircase go by default, not daring to touchit in the Semite, for

    " the offense is rankit smells to heaven." 'I he newspaper

    article referred to is said to have beenwritten bv oue Mrs. Meltride, a femaleonrpet bagger from Mississippi, appoint-ed by Secretary Sherman iu the Trea«ury department, out of pity for herutwd and distress, as well as ou ncoountof her claim of suffering so much downthere for Kepublicauism: bat, surely, ifthis person is the writer, as is supposed,«h« is probably instigated by SenatorLauiar. who, naturally enough, desiresto keep the Hherumii investigating com-mittee from Copiah county and Yazoo,aud endorses the wail of this uauielesH?nter, who. as it nppeare, is well knownto the regular oorrtwpondeut of thatpaper.

    FUKHITLKNT A mum'sFirst public levee was held last Wednes-day evening. Feb tith, aud was gracedl>v the lieunty and elite of Washingtonaucisty and also five chiefs of the Flat-bends, tl e guests of Delegate McGin-UH, royally arrayed in striped blaukets,beads, feathers and claws. Over threethousand people entered the doors ofth« White Mouse aud made their exitthrough the window, the fashionablestyle uo adays to avoid a crush. Thisuttiijue method was first inaugurated inthe days of President Lincoln, wheuciti/en soldiers played an importantpart in the dramatic and tragic as wellaasocial affairs of lite.
