FTcra the Alaska Times, June 25th, 1BCX Sitka, formerly known as New Archangel, is the principal city in Alaska. Heretofore but little was known of it, prior to its occupation by the Americans. It was formerly the headquarters, cf the Russian American Fur Company. It is in latitude 57 c 2' 45" north, long. 135 0 17' 10" west. The harbor of Sitka is safe and commodious, and except on rare occasions as smooth as a mill pond. The wharf, which has been in use a long time, is getting dilapidated needs repairing ycry much. There is ample material, and room to build an excellent wharf, so as to allow vessels coming to this port to come alongside and discharge their car- goes. Near the wharf is the bat- tery, very different in appearance and material from what it was in the hands cf late owners the Rus- sians. The same may be said of the garrison, the quarters do not look the same, having undergone the most improved system of trans- formation. The General's house is a source of marked observation. It can be seen many miles out at sea before entering our harbor. It is built 'on a rocky eminence. 80 fe-o- t above the. level of our harbor. It commands a fine view of all the approaches by land and water, and is a very commodious building. It was orig- inally built for the accemmodation of the Russian governor and no expense- was spared to make it a princely habitation. The Custom House is also a fine building, and in its immediate vicinity there are several warehouses, and some com- modious stores, several of them do- ing a large and profitable business. The Greek Church,with its dome and spire of Oriental styla, is a beautiful structure, and attracts considerable attention from strang- ers arriving here for the first time. The military hospital is a large and roomy building, and like many of the other Russian houses, has an iron-slieete- d roof. 3Iany new buildings are in pro- cess of erection. Roads and side- walks are daily being made, and industry and enterprise see-i- n visi- ble all over our city, notwithstand- ing the dull times which dxist hero at present.

It is seldom, indeed, that we aro called upon to chronicle a caso liko the following, wherein appears all " the ingredients of a sensational-article.- " Everything of this class is arid ever wall be, entirely eschew-ee- l by the eelitors of this journal. The manufacturing of romance, and "exciting scenes" has become alto- gether too common among the ial corps of our new North- west. There arrived in Omajia, on last Wednesday, 3Ir. Wm. F. Petit, and. his family, from Owatonna, Minn., ai route to Santiago, in Southern California. His daughter, Lizzie Petit, was accompanied by her af- fectionate lover, 3Ir. Crosby WThoo-le- t, a young man w ho in childhood had been her playmate, and in man- hood her constant companion. ; During the transfer of passengers from the eastern to, the western de- pot, the young couple were placed in one omnibus, while the family were all transported in another. The conveyance containing the hap- py pair accidentally broke down wdiile on its way to. tho Union Pa- cific depot. The result was, the separation of Mr. Petit and family from his daughter and her lover. The latter having been left in Oma- ha. Yfhooiot at once - escorted Miss P. to the Morrison House, and se- cured rooms for both. The day was passed in visiting the different points of attraction in our beauti- ful city, but w hen night came the young" main sallied forth from tho hotel to " see the elephant," since vheii he litis not been heard from. . He had in his possession the ticket and checks for baggage belonging to his "to-b- e bride," and about 500 dollars in money. The young laely becoming alarmed at'Jiis protracted absence, yesterday sent for the Marshal and had a search institut- ed for his whereabouts. A detect- ive reports having seen him in a keno bank at a late hour Wednes- day night, and it isfpossible that the. young man has met with foul play, but the general impression is that he must have lost his little worldly store of greenbacks, and ' either left the city in a state of distraction, or, having been lucky in his gambling scheme, was in- veigled to some secluded spot and he met with foul play. The former theory is more prob-- . able than the latter 5 but, be it as it may, detectives are at work,look-in- g up the case.

As might have been .. expecteel, Brigham refused pcremp-- . torily, and gave orders to tho Bish- ops to exclude the brothers from tho ward meeting-house- s. But theso young reformers do not intend to be brow-beate- n, and announce their determination to "fight it out on that line."

John- son's speech in response to a sere- nade in Washington City, is lively reading : It was not necessary to turn at- tention to the oilier end of the av- enue cries of hear, hear not was it necessary to do more than to point to the tyrannical body called Congress, which attempted to absorb every single power of the President. lie had called them " tyrants standing with the mfrrlcd heel of power on all the necks of the freemen of the United States," endeavoring to blot ont the lines which separated the State, to wipe out the other two eo-ordin- branches of the Government, and in this Congress stood omnipotent. 'SI tell you here, my countrymen," he said, " that if I were compelled to make a choice (and thank God T am not so compelled as yet), I would take one individual who was honest, wise, patriotic, and jits., as my ruler or master, in preference to a congress so usurp- ing, capricious and corrupt. A voice :. " that's so," and applause. Let us talk about those things as they are. v e even hnd a differ- ence among them as to whether tliey would take such a govern- ment as an omnipotent congress would impose, or an imperial gov- ernment. Such feelers have been sent out. They wish to develop what sentiment there is in the country. Take a paper especially in New York, in which, no doubt is the emanation and reflection of a certain combination of individu- als some of them, perhaps, residing in Washington ;aud when we turn to the title page what do Ave see ?" On one side, " The empire is peace 7" and on the other side the quotation us have peace!" Laughter. The meaning of this is, "Let us have the empire with Grant at its head and we shall have peace." Laughter and applause. you find lurking behind this a debt of twenty-fiv- e or twenty-eigh- t hundred millions of dollars. Thr irreat fear is that the people are not to be trusted, and will not pay it ; and hence we must have a strong government with an army at our backs, and when the people be- come restive as to the payment of taxes, they are to be compelled to do so' at the point of the bayonet. I know what I say, and, not to bo egotistical, I know what is being prepared for the American people. We find the single item of one hun- dred and fifty millions to be col- lected for payment of interest on the bonds, and what is it? Inter- est to be paid in one-hal- f year's time.. You run your hands in your pockets and' pull out some- thing so dim and worn that you cannot tell what it is. Jut see what it calls for 011 its .face, as com .area with the currency of tho v"ovl.h As admitted by both Christian and barbarous nations we find this paper to be thirty or forty cents below par.

This wc do know with certainty, that waking up van pauimi oiarronoea. or cnoi-o- r err hi Ions colic ending in death in a very rt time, is probably traceable to a late large meal. For persons to eat three times a day, it is amply sufficient to make the last meal of cold bread and butter a euo of some wan 11 annic.

D tiring severe thunder storm, and while it was at its height, the gap was suddenly filled with countless numbers ot Si lakes, which were seen fid ling for nearly ten minutes. They were of the common ringed species, and measured from five inches to two feet, in length. They were all dead, being killed, it is supposed, by the fall. The news of the freak of na- ture soon spread among the farm- ers of the region, and created the most intense; c?ceitcinent. By even- ing the gap was crowded with hun- dreds of people, drawn thither to witness the novel scene.

I think the comparison near about complete. Carrying out the idea, Washington was in- augurated on the 13 th of April, lie referred in his speech to con- gress to his great want of experi- ence and his diffidence in assuming a responsibility so great ; and also spoke of the importance of private morals as the foundation of public virtue.

Because I have uttered truths which cannot be controvert- ed, it is said I favor repudiation. But go to Congress. What lias it done? , You will fee that in the inaugural address it h stated that if any body is in favor of repudia- tion to the extent of a single farth- ing he cannot hold anofiice under the government. Lang iter. But when you go to this congress, so conscious were they of the great fraud practiced in various atrocious ways, they came forward and pro- posed to repudiate one-thir- d of tho whole debt. u It is nominated in the bond" to say six per cent., and yet congress, in the rice of this solemn contract, proposed to re- duce it to five, four and three per cent. But this interest is to he paid in gold and silver. Go tot tie Department, .A man comes in with coupons, and at one counter gets gold and silver for them ; another man comes in and goes to another counter with claims for some v'ridow or orphans of him who fell in the country's cause who was buried with no winding sheet around his body but the blanket stained with his blood and this man acting for the widow or orphans is I land- ed depreciated pnper, while the bondholder receives gold and sil- ver. When the rebellion com- menced, I was one of those who opposed it. My property was im- perilled. . I raised thiity-sevc- n thousand men for the struggle. I am out of ollice now, and ask for no place, therefore I can talk plain on inc subjcec ine war com- menced and was called on our part, as was solemnly declared in con- gress, for the purpose of p reserv- ing the Union and restoring the States to their proper relations. The rebellion progressed, and what was the effect ? There was an in- stitution in the South to which there was great prejudice. It was estimated, when considered in its character and shape as property, to be wortli thousand millions of dollars. I was no advocate of slavery. The negro walked oil', and just as this property disap- peared in one section, it appeared in the shape of government- - 'locks and bonds fit the other end of the line, instead of existing in an insti- tution which wns productive to the nation and the world. I can tell you vrhere it is. Go look into the vaults and see tho great stacks of Government bonds. Ilo-- y many fields does it plow ? How many ships docs it build? How much wealth does it add to the nation ? Can anybody tell me? A voice "None." It t lie re remains cor- roding and eatiug out the govern-men- t vitals. The query comes up Are the American people going to tolerate these things ? Instead ot such a vast amount of credit and capital being locked up in the strong boxes it should lie forced out of the hands of t lie bondhold- ers and forced to seeking invest- ments in suc-h- n eterpris.es as would add to the wealth of the country in the development of its resources and in works of public improve- ment. After thither remarking on this and kindred suhjects, he said: We once had a Washington in this country, and thank (rod for it. Applause. I have heard it said we have a second Washington. A voice: "Wo have him yet." I should like to look at hi fa Ap- plause and laughter I should like to sec what kind of an animnl he is, I suspect the second Washing- ton is about as much like the ir- - Washington as let me illustrate ! You remember the old story of tho prank, or satire, that Diogenes practiced on Plato, who was very learned, and who instructed the young men in the academy, and defmed man to be an animal with' two legs and without feathers. Diogcnese, who was a cynic and full of satire, concluded he would ridicule the idea out of existence, and therefore he would catch a goose and strip it of its plumage and hang it by the head, and as tin; students were turned out lie pointed at the goose with the feathers stripped oil, saying, "This is Plato's, mar?' Applause and taxes, and seem to give general sat isfaction. Nominally a civil gov ernment, because the military law rules the territory.. The command- ing general seldom interferes except solicited. This civil law saves him a vast amount cf trouble and time which he can devote to the manage- ment of his department. There are at present three schools in this city one American and two Rus- sian, and they are well attended. A newspaper has been started a dew months, winch is well patron ized, not omy m Alaska, but all over this coast, and has many sub- scribers in the Atlant ic States. The Lutheran denomination have a church here, but it is at present oc- cupied by the post chaplain, Rev. Mr. Ray nor. The Masonic fraternity have a Lodge, and a large membership. TIi ere are two breweries in opera- tion, doing a good business. The parade ground is beautifully graded and in front of it many officers arc provided with neat and convenient quarters. Tito " galoshes," as the Sitki In- dians are called, inhabit the coast between the Stekinc and Chilcat country.

SITKA.
FTcra the Alaska Times, June 25th, 1BCX
Sitka, formerly known as NewArchangel, is the principal city inAlaska. Heretofore but little wasknown of it, prior to its occupationby the Americans. It was formerlythe headquarters, cf the RussianAmerican Fur Company. It is inlatitude 57 c 2' 45" north, long.135 0 17' 10" west.
The harbor of Sitka is safe andcommodious, and except on rareoccasions as smooth as a mill pond.The wharf, which has been in use along time, is getting dilapidatedneeds repairing ycry much. Thereis ample material, and room to buildan excellent wharf, so as to allowvessels coming to this port to comealongside and discharge their car-goes. Near the wharf is the bat-tery, very different in appearanceand material from what it was inthe hands cf late owners the Rus-sians. The same may be said ofthe garrison, the quarters do notlook the same, having undergonethe most improved system of trans-formation.
The General's house is a sourceof marked observation. It can beseen many miles out at sea beforeentering our harbor. It is built 'ona rocky eminence. 80 fe-o-t above the.level of our harbor. It commandsa fine view of all the approachesby land and water, and is a verycommodious building. It was orig-inally built for the accemmodationof the Russian governor and noexpense- was spared to make it aprincely habitation. The CustomHouse is also a fine building, andin its immediate vicinity there areseveral warehouses, and some com-modious stores, several of them do-ing a large and profitable business.
The Greek Church,with its domeand spire of Oriental styla, is abeautiful structure, and attractsconsiderable attention from strang-ers arriving here for the first time.The military hospital is a large androomy building, and like many ofthe other Russian houses, has aniron-slieete- d roof.
3Iany new buildings are in pro-cess of erection. Roads and side-walks are daily being made, andindustry and enterprise see-i- n visi-ble all over our city, notwithstand-ing the dull times which dxist heroat present.
The citizens have formed a civilgovernment, hold elections, collect

From tho Omaha Republican.It is seldom, indeed, that we aro
called upon to chronicle a caso likothe following, wherein appears all" the ingredients of a sensational-article.-

Everything of this classis arid ever wall be, entirely eschew-ee- l
by the eelitors of this journal.The manufacturing of romance, and"exciting scenes" has become alto-gether too common among the ial
corps of our new North-west.
There arrived in Omajia, on lastWednesday, 3Ir. Wm. F. Petit, and.his family, from Owatonna, Minn.,ai route to Santiago, in SouthernCalifornia. His daughter, LizziePetit, was accompanied by her af-fectionate lover, 3Ir. Crosby WThoo-le- t,
a young man w ho in childhoodhad been her playmate, and in man-hood her constant companion. ;
During the transfer of passengersfrom the eastern to,the western de-pot, the young couple were placedin one omnibus, while the familywere all transported in another.The conveyance containing the hap-py pair accidentally broke downwdiile on its way to. tho Union Pa-cific depot. The result was, theseparation of Mr. Petit and familyfrom his daughter and her lover.The latter having been left in Oma-ha.
Yfhooiot at once - escorted MissP. to the Morrison House, and se-
cured rooms for both. The day waspassed in visiting the differentpoints of attraction in our beauti-ful city, but w hen night came theyoung" main sallied forth from thohotel to " see the elephant," sincevheii he litis not been heard from. .
He had in his possession the ticketand checks for baggage belongingto his "to-b- e bride," and about 500dollars in money. The young laelybecoming alarmed at'Jiis protractedabsence, yesterday sent for theMarshal and had a search institut-ed for his whereabouts. A detect-ive reports having seen him in akeno bank at a late hour Wednes-day night, and it isfpossible thatthe. young man has met with foulplay, but the general impression isthat he must have lost his littleworldly store of greenbacks, and 'either left the city in a state ofdistraction, or, having been luckyin his gambling scheme, was in-
veigled to some secluded spot andhe met with foul play.
The former theory is more prob-- .able than the latter 5 but, be it asit may, detectives are at work,look-in- g
up the case. Her father has al-read- yr
been telegraphed to,and willeither return, or send his daughtermoney to pay her way to' tho Gold-en Gate,

Biigham Young's camp is in --
trouble. The Corinno Heporterstates that Wm. Alexander and D. .
Ilyrum, sons of Joseph Smith,havoarrived in Salt Lake city, bound --
on a vigorus crusade against polyg- -amy. On their arrival they called .
on Brigham and solicited pcrmis- - --
sion to defend their faith in thotabernacle. . As might have been ..
expecteel, Brigham refused pcremp-- .torily, and gave orders to tho Bish-ops to exclude the brothers from thoward meeting-house- s. But thesoyoung reformers do not intend tobe brow-beate- n, and announce theirdetermination to "fight it out onthat line." The Gentiles of coursowill help them, and Brigham lias .
more cause to make concessions .
than even had the Emperor of the.French. Brigham's crown rests un-easy on his cabesa. -

Never too late, and never too soon ;
And evening and morning make the day.
Backward and forward, over the sands,And over the rocks, to full and flow ;
And this tveve has touched a dead man'":hands,
And that one has seen a face we know.
They have speed the good ship on her vay,Or buried her deep from love and light ;
Cut here, as they sink at our feet to-da-
Ah, who shall distinguish their voicesaright ?
For their separate burdens of hope an-- fearAre blended now in cne solemn tone;
And only this song of the waves I hear," Forever and ever Iiis will is done."
Backward ard forward, to and fro,Swings our life in its weary vray ;
Now at its ebb, and new at its fow ;
And evening and morning make the day.
Sorrow and comfort, peace and strife,Fain and rejoicing, its moments know;
How, from the discords of such a life,Shall the clear sweet music fiov? !

Sweeter than chimes of vesper bells," Forever and ever His will is done."

From the Iowa Coppevhoad.The follovring, from 31 r. John-
son's speech in response to a sere-
nade in Washington City, is livelyreading :
It was not necessary to turn at-
tention to the oilier end of the av-
enue cries of hear, hear notwas it necessary to do more thanto point to the tyrannical bodycalled Congress, which attemptedto absorb every single power ofthe President. lie had called them" tyrants standing with the mfrrlcdheel of power on all the necks ofthe freemen of the United States,"endeavoring to blot ont the lineswhich separated the State, to wipeout the other two eo-ordin-
branches of the Government, andin this Congress stood omnipotent.'SI tell you here, my countrymen,"he said, " that if I were compelledto make a choice (and thank GodT am not so compelled as yet), Iwould take one individual whowas honest, wise, patriotic, andjits., as my ruler or master, inpreference to a congress so usurp-ing, capricious and corrupt. Avoice :. " that's so," and applause.Let us talk about those things asthey are. v e even hnd a differ-ence among them as to whethertliey would take such a govern-ment as an omnipotent congresswould impose, or an imperial gov-ernment. Such feelers have beensent out. They wish to developwhat sentiment there is in thecountry. Take a paper especiallyin New York, in which, no doubtis the emanation and reflection ofa certain combination of individu-als some of them, perhaps, residingin Washington ;aud when we turnto the title page what do Ave see ?"On one side, " The empire ispeace 7" and on the other side thequotation us have peace!"Laughter. The meaning of this
is, "Let us have the empire withGrant at its head and we shall havepeace." Laughter and applause.
you find lurking behind this adebt of twenty-fiv- e or twenty-eigh- t
hundred millions of dollars. Thrirreat fear is that the people are notto be trusted, and will not pay it ;
and hence we must have a stronggovernment with an army at ourbacks, and when the people be-
come restive as to the payment oftaxes, they are to be compelled todo so' at the point of the bayonet.I know what I say, and, not to boegotistical, I know what is beingprepared for the American people.We find the single item of one hun-
dred and fifty millions to be col-
lected for payment of interest onthe bonds, and what is it? Inter-est to be paid in one-hal- f year'stime..

Jut seewhat it calls for 011 its .face, ascom .area with the currency of thov"ovl.h As admitted by bothChristian and barbarous nationswe find this paper to be thirty orforty cents below par.

It is better to go to sleep on theright side, for then, says Dr. Hall'sJournal of Jlcaltli, the stomach isvery much in the position of a bot-tle turned upside down, and thecontents of it are aided in passing-ou- t

side tho operation of emptying thestomach of its contents is more likedrawing from a well. After goingto sleen let tho body take its own

great truths ? f Ri--'mrv- o.no." Then how does the matterstand? Because I have utteredtruths which cannot be controvert-ed, it is said I favor repudiation.But go to Congress. What liasit done? , You will fee that in theinaugural address it h stated thatif any body is in favor of repudia-tion to the extent of a single farth-ing he cannot hold anofiice underthe government. Lang iter. Butwhen you go to this congress, soconscious were they of the greatfraud practiced in various atrociousways, they came forward and pro-posed to repudiate one-thir- d of thowhole debt. u It is nominated inthe bond" to say six per cent., andyet congress, in the rice of thissolemn contract, proposed to re-duce it to five, four and three percent. But this interest is to hepaid in gold and silver. Go tot tieDepartment, .A man comes in withcoupons, and at one counter getsgold and silver for them ; anotherman comes in and goes to anothercounter with claims for some v'ridowor orphans of him who fell in thecountry's cause who was buriedwith no winding sheet around hisbody but the blanket stained withhis blood and this man actingfor the widow or orphans is I land-ed depreciated pnper, while thebondholder receives gold and sil-
ver. When the rebellion com-menced, I was one of those whoopposed it. My property was im-
perilled. . I raised thiity-sevc- n
thousand men for the struggle. Iam out of ollice now, and ask forno place, therefore I can talk plainon inc subjcec ine war com-menced and was called on our part,as was solemnly declared in con-gress, for the purpose of p reserv-ing the Union and restoring theStates to their proper relations.The rebellion progressed, and whatwas the effect ? There was an in-
stitution in the South to whichthere was great prejudice. It wasestimated, when considered in itscharacter and shape as property,to be wortli thousand millions ofdollars. I was no advocate ofslavery. The negro walked oil',and just as this property disap-peared in one section, it appearedin the shape of government- - 'locksand bonds fit the other end of theline, instead of existing in an insti-tution which wns productive to thenation and the world. I can tellyou vrhere it is. Go look into thevaults and see tho great stacks ofGovernment bonds. Ilo-- y manyfields does it plow ? How manyships docs it build? How muchwealth does it add to the nation ?
Can anybody tell me? A voice"None." It t lie re remains cor-
roding and eatiug out the govern-men- tvitals. The query comes up
Are the American people goingto tolerate these things ? Insteadot such a vast amount of creditand capital being locked up in thestrong boxes it should lie forcedout of the hands of t lie bondhold-ers and forced to seeking invest-ments in suc-h- n eterpris.es as wouldadd to the wealth of the countryin the development of its resourcesand in works of public improve-ment. After thither remarking onthis and kindred suhjects, he said:We once had a Washington inthis country, and thank (rod for it.Applause. I have heard it said
we have a second Washington. Avoice: "Wo have him yet." Ishould like to look at hi fa Ap-
plause and laughter I should liketo sec what kind of an animnl heis, I suspect the second Washing-ton is about as much like the ir- -
Washington as let me illustrate !
