The wade-awake firm of Sam'l Levy & Co., as has been their pleas- ure and custom for many years again on Christmas eve remembered every Sunday school scholar in Bates county under the age of 16 years, with a most appropriate present in | shape of an autograph album, hand- rated in gold leaf with Mr. Leyy’s compliments tastefully emossed on the back. Old Santa may forget the children, or some of them, some times, but Judge Levy never, and if any Sunday school scholar in Bates county failed to receive one of these nice presents it was tke fault of their superintendent and not Judge Levy. At the M. E. church, south, the following resolution was unani- mously adopted: RESOLUTION OF THANKS. Whereas, Messrs Sam Levy & Co., have for several years past kind- ly remembered the Sunday school scholars of the Butler Methodist Episcopal church, south, by present ing them with beautiful and appro- priate Christmas presents; therefore be it Resolved, That we, the pastor and ; members of said church and school, do hereby tender our most sincere and heartfelt thank te the above | generous firm.

The Indians have never penetrated it, for their traditions say | that it is inhabited by a very flere tribe, which none of the coast. tribes dared molest. Though it is improbable that such a tribe could have existed in this mountain country without their presence becoming known to the white man, no man has ever ascertained that it did not exist. White men, too, have only vague accounts of any white mag having ever passed through this country, for investigation of all the claims of travelers has invariably proved that they have only traversed its outer edges, The most generally accepted theory in regard to this country is that it consists of great valleys stretching from the in- ward slopes of the mountains to a great central basin. This theory is supported by the fact that, although the country around has abundant rain, and clouds constantly hang over the mountain tops, all the streams flowing toward the four points of the compass are insignifi, cant, and rise only on the outward slopes of the range, none appearing to draig the great area shut in by the mountaing This fact appears to support the theory that the streams flowing from the inner slopes of the mountains feed a great in- terior lake. But what drains this lake? It must have an outlet somewhere, and as allof the streams pouring from the | mountains rise on their outward slopes, it must have a subterranean outlet inte the ocean, the straits or the sound There are great discoveries in store for some of Washington's explorers. A gentleman named Drew, now resid ing at Olympia, states that he hag climbed tothe summit of the easter range from Hood's canal and looking down could see great valleys stretching toward the west.
