UPON TRE OPENING oF CoNGRESS anatiempt will be made to place a territorial delegate upon the committee on territories, with the right to vote.

Tue MURDER oF THE LoninG Panty.—A letter latety received at Cambridge from a member of Lievt. Wheeler's party, written at Camp Whipple, near Prescott, on the 7th inst., alleges that the’ massacre of young Loring and party in the stage near Wickenburg was by whiter for the purpose of robbery, and not by Indians, and gives strong circumstantial evi- dence in support of the theory. ‘Tne Hox. James M. Leaon, Congressman from the Fifth Distriet of North Carolina, is charged on the affidavit of Alexander McRary with having belonged to the White Brother- hood or kuklux kian, and with the taking of an obligation which found him (Leach), never to turn State’s evidence against any brother, or to reveal the secrets of the order; “to oppose all radicals and negroes in their political designs,” and to aid in punishing any radical ornegro who should im eon, injure, or abuse any member of the brotherhood. it the National. ‘Tue Conoressional Panter in his forth- coming ‘annual report says there has been a manifest improvement in the character of nearly every classof the paper furnished hisoffice under contracts during the last year. The increase in the eost of public printing tl ear is $58,868. notwithstanding the fact, thatthe printing on account of the Post Office Department is 61,000 in excess of last year. In the same department, however, the cost of printing has decreased from jJast year, This is occasioned by the rapid wih of the business connected with the postal interests of the country. The cost of printing, lithographing, and binding the Patent Office specifications from July 1 to September 39, 1871. was $29,703.24. Referring to the extension oi the oftice building, which cost $45,000, the report says it adds 531; per cent. to the accom- modations of the establishment. The report urges the necessity of Comgress providing for the printing of a much greater number of the anna! reports of Departments, &c., since, under the present law, which restricts the printing to so small a number, all parties entitled to these works can not be furnished with them.

The following telegram received this morning conveys the painfal intelligence of the death of . the fonnder of this m Douglass Wallac CrLpErsr, Va., Dec. 1—Mr. Wall: severe spasm last night, trom » After spending a restless night, he breathed his last this morning at 54 Mr. Wallach had been year, his disease first taking the shape of paral- ysis of the muscles ot the throat, but the original vigor of his constitution had enabled Lim to t it off, and though he bad suffered from violent and distressing attacks, had alwayx rallied, and had recently appeared better, so that his death was unexpected. apparently so much better that his wife and danghtors had come to Washington, and were here when the sad news of his death reached ington this morning. Mr. Wallach was about fifty: having been born in 1812. time of his birth, resided on the east side of 9th street, between Pennsylvhnia avenue and D He was the eldest of four brothers. Two of his younger brothers, Richard and Charles, now reside in this city, and the third, Cuthbert, is a paymaster in the navy. His father, Richard Wallach, was a prominent lawyer of Washing- ton in former years, and was held in great es teem for his high character and professional ability. He died in 1835. deceased was a daughter of Col. Chas. Simms, an officer on the staff of General Washington during the revolutionary war, and one of the witnesses to his will, as well as a pall-bearer ai Mr. Wallach received his educa- tion at Columbian College, and commenced life as a civil engincer when he was about twenty years of age, being first employed on someof the carly railroads in Massachusetts, and later on some of the Virginia roads. When he was about twenty-six years of age he went to Texas, before that state was admitted into the Union, where he published the Matagorda Gazette for some years, and after the admission of Texas into the Union he returned to this city, where he was actively engaged for a considerable time as a correspondent for several northern journals, and also contributed to several magazinos, amongst others to the Democratic Revie Subsequently he was associated with « Father Ritchie” in the editorship of the Wash- ington Union, and his activi istic qualifications speedily gave him a high he esteem of Mr. Ritchi Mr. Wallach, in connection with W H. Hope, purchased Tue Evgxixe STAR from Col. Jos. B. Tate, who had started the paper about nine months previously. Tue STAR, in the capable hands of Mr. Wallach, gable as a news-gatherer, and of remarkable fluency as a writerp—soon entered upon the ea- reer of prosperity it hassince maintained. After some months’ association with Mr. Hope, Mr. Wallach purchased the interest of Hope in the paper, and from that time he remained the sole proprietor of the paper until its purchase by the present proprietors in October, 1867. He rightly held when he relinguished journalism that twenty-nine vears of incessant labor in con- nection with the press gave him the privilege ot But his abundant vitality and wonderful energy could not allow him to take rest in the ordinary sense, and found ex and manage- extensive tracts of real mainly in Virginia. He had always displayed gveat love for rural pursuits, and now with an ample fortune accumulated by his industry he had the opportunity to indulge his tastes to the fullest. In addition to a fine place on the East- ern Shore of Maryiand he had an attractive estate in the beautiful and picturesque country near Culpeper Court House, Virginia, and on his withdrawal from journalism he made the purchase of numerous outlying tarms. He was never so happy as when at this country home; aud even when affected by disease so that he could scarce speak above a whisper, he was in the habit of riding miles every day, visiting his different farms and superintending their con- duet in person. To all in this community the news of Mr. Wal- Jach’s death will come as a personal grief. He was co prominently identified with the history of the city for many years; his activity, geniality, and buoyancy of temper were so conspicuous that scarcely another face and figure is so well remembered. Mr. Wallach leaves a wife an¢ four children to mourn bis loss. His wife, a most estimable lady, was a daughter of Mr. Angustas Newton, a Yormer resident of this city. ‘The funeral of Mr. Wallach, it will be seen, will take place on Sunday next from his late city residence, on G street, and he will be buried at the Congress Ground. i) for more than a Indeed, he was nine yearsof age His parents, at the The mother of tne then in its palmy and fine journal- taking some rest.
