tends to make his future permanent home.
Dr. L. has been 11 resident of Olympia for
over three years, during which time, in the
practice of his profession. has given, we be
lieve, universal satisfaction to nil requiring
his professional aid or ndiiee. lLis excel
lent trails of clmrn‘cter for honor and up
rightness, added to his fine intellectual and
gentlemnnl; social qualities, have endeared
him to a large circle of friends and ncqnulnt

lot may be cast, the lmml of friendship and
kindness.

Great proper-tious_were being made to“

to take place on the 6th of January, thell

} We understand that fault is found byi
lsonu- of the members of the (it'llltll'l'ntic‘
ipnrty, in one county, at lenst,asto the timer
ilil'SiLfi‘li‘lit‘d Ivy theeentral committee forthe
meeting of the tlctnoerntie territorial «mn
\'entiou. It was tlte intention of the com
‘lnittee in living upon the time. to consult
the eonvenieneo of the whole territory. It
‘tvns thought advisable that the contention
<honhi be called at least as early as the 'itltj
of May, and it was feared that by pn-tpo-‘
ning the call ttntil a later day, the waters
of the Columbia, Cowlitz and other l'i\ol‘>,4
nould he swollen so much as to seriotnly
interfere with the attendance of delegates
from the southern portion of the territor_\'.i
In view of the above, and from the fat-ti
that the call has already been ltllltllellt‘li
two weeks, the cotnntittee fear that the;
pintking of any change now, might leatl to;
iserious embarrassment and ruisnntlerstnnthi
ing in the party. i
An early appointment of delegates is
desirable in the persons of democrats who
will he sure to attend. It is desirable above .
all things, that every county should be ful
l\ nml fairly represented, in order that nol
dissatisfaction may exist after the nomina-l
tien shall have been made. 1

It is with profound regret that we an-l
nounec the Ittelancholy intelligence of the
death by drowning of (ii-to. W. Srsvuxs'
the relative and private secretary of Gov.
Stevens. Up to the present time all efforts
to recover his remains have proved unuvail-i
ing. , I
This young gentleman was singularly}
fitted for a high career of honor and use—}
fullness; particularly 'nt his death, a loss [o'
this young Territory, in which lit-took the,
most liv‘ely interest, and of whose great,
fu‘urc he had a thorough appreciation;
ille delighted in its scenery, attd understootli
and aympnthized with its inhabitants. He.
was emphatically one of our pioneers, and:
had, at the time of his death, established“
among'scientiflc men a reputation as the‘;
‘ Astronomer of the Eastern Division of the}
Northern Railroad Exploration. He was;
'fortunnte in the tender sympathies undt
”careful nurture of his youth. A father of ,t
'lsaraing, of high social and moral qualifir
lcations, now filling with credit an impor-i
itnnt judicial position ; a mother whoset
loveliness and beauty of mind and person,
lalthough someyears deceased, is fresh in‘
the hearts of all her friends, brothers and
sisters united in the ties of a most happy
family circle-these constituted the happyi
elements of the roaring of his childhood,
and youth. Great care was taken with
his education, and in this connection his
grandfather, now 85 years of age, must not
ibe forgotten. This venerable man had
traveled extensively abroad, and in his early i
and mature manhood, u a merchant in al
large business, was know for his rare prob-l
ity and his exthnsivo information. ’l‘th
last. mail brought from him to his beloved}
grandson a long letter, the character, “i
firm as that of a man of {0 years, giving;
the news of the family and neighborth
and replete with a practical and geniali
wisdom, characteristic of the venerable old
patriarch. i
At eighteen years of age, the subject of‘
this notice entered the public service as anl
aid in the aurvey of the coast of the Unitedl
States, under the superinteudcncc of l'rof.l
Bnchc, and here his varied and decidcdi
ability, his nnweariod application, and his}
courteous manners, soon caused him to be'
ppidly promoted and to be generally andl
favorably known. His labors were, {or sci
young a man, remarkable. In six months
he was promoted to the chief clerkship ot‘
the oflice, and at the end of the tvlo years,
he not only had made himself familiar withl
the ordinary business placed in his hands,
but had mastered nearly all the methods!
need in the observations and computations
—hsd became a good practicsL Geodetist'
and Astronomer, and was fanfdiar with
the mechanism of nearly every instrument
on the survey.
i It was the observation of Mr. Hilgard.
one of the ablest mathematicians of the
country, amt his proceptor and chief on the
survey in his scientific studies, that his'
progress and acquiretnenta were altogetheri
‘the most remarkable he had ever known.
When his' relative, Gov. Stevens, was
appointed the Governor of this Territory,
and placed in charge of the exploration of l
the northern route, the situation of private!
secretary, and of one of the Astronourersi
of “the exploration, watt otfered to and “0-:
ccptcd by him.
Since this time his course is so well!
known to many persons in this vicinity,
that any extended observatit. are unacc
canary. It will he snflcient to state, that
since his arrival in the Territory, he has 3
been unweariod in prosecuting his scientific
studies, and that he has contributed a t‘ull ‘
series of meteorological obarvations for ‘
for one year, and has determined the geo"
graphical position of this place. He was
well fitted for high duties in many careers I
of usefulneh'. l
liis \t‘holc character was an “lilllirililici
