will he occasioned I>v the expiration of Mr
< 1 win’s term, w hich e\i ul w ill occur < u the 111.
ol March, 18-15.
According' to the usual custom of li e various
Legislatures of the Union, this election should
he made hy the Legislature immediately prece
ding, or in session at the time of, the occurriti"
ol the vacancy. Not so, however, think a cer
tain •• rule or ruin’’ w ing of the party. They
gravely urge that the Legislature of ’.I l-’.>s may
t.ii to perlorm its houuden duty in this respe ct,
mol that then California would nut be fully rep
resented in the I . S. Senate for an entire year!'
How exalted must be that patriotism,—how
ceaseless that vigilance on the watch-tower, —
how earnest I hat zeal for tho public good, that
can thus perceive clangors to the Stale “ afar
oil 1 that can thus, like the faithful war-horse,
*nulf distant perils in the breeze, and with such
admirable wisdom suggest a remedy by which
the threatened calamity may he averted even
the lllling the vacancy a fail year before it oc
plits! How keen the sight that can thus discov
er the attendant evils of coming events in the
very outside .‘■hade of the dim shadows cast be
fore! And then how tho patriot’s heart glows
with exultation, when lie sees these disinterest
ed sentinels chivalrously snatch the banners of
alarm, and hang them out upon the outer wall!
I’.ut to speak gravely, the proposition is really
too absurd for serums treatment, but for the fact
that a large number of politicians are so un
scrupulous in their attainment of ends, as al
ready to have evinced a settled determination to
forestall public opinion and bring mi the elec
tion lie*! winter. It is indeed passing strange
that a set of men who make such loud preten
sions of respect for the expressed will of the
people, should desire at this stage to “Jump the
game” and prevent the people from cimsinga
Legislature with a view to the election of a
proper person to fill this most exalted unci im
portant position. We do not for a moment en
tertain the idea that the members from the
mountains will consent to go Into tho election.
Wo h ave an abiding confidence that the Senate
at least will not {day the part of an infamous
tool iii the hands of any unscrupulous and
tit rice-infamous aspirant.
A.Taii. and Col ax Hoist.—lt lias frequently
been a source of regret, not to say mortification
to us that Shasta, one of the most wealthy, as
well as first organized among llm northern co m
ties, had no Court House or Jail. That this state
cl things has existed so long, wo are persuaded
is to be attributed alone to tho iiicoinpetoncy of
many persons heretofore filling important offices
in the county. The revenues of the county have
been unwisely appropriated—squandered—not
leaving one single memento, in the shape of a
public improvement, that they ever existed. It
gives ns pleasure, therefore, to state that owing
to the very able manner in which our financial
nllairs have been managed during the past year,
the treasury is in a condition to justify the Court
in publishing (or proposals for the erection of a
Jail and Court House, as soon as January next.
Heretofore, as at present, the Sheriff was com
pelled to take prisoners to the butte Jail for safe
keeping, or else hire a man to watch them nil
the time in this {dace, either mode costing the
county from five to eight dollars per day. We
are persuaded that by the erection of these build
ings, a saving in cost of keeping prisoners and
court-room hire, sufficient Id pay for their entire
cost will be realized in a few years.
Fnf. Financial Condition ok thk County.—
It is customary in other counties, at least w here
new spapers are published, for the County Treas
urer to make periodical exhibits ol the financial
condition of the County. No good reason can be
given why a like exposition has never been
made for this County. We trust that our excel
lent County Treasurer may not find it inconsis
tent with Ids inclinations to make a public report
of tho existing monetary affairs of the County.
The people would like to know something about
her receipt! u:id expenditures. We hope no
one will misunderstand this article. We enter
tain no suspicions of fraud or malfeasance on the
part of our officers. The people simply wish,
like a good business man, ut the end of the month
or quarter, to know how their county affairs
stand.

This project is being very generally agitated
throughout the Stale, ami a majurity of the .pa
pers, both city nml country, have already ex
pressed their views relative to the contemplated
movement. Without making a count of these
expressions of the press, we arc under the im
pression that the greater number have urged the
propriety and wisdom of removing the capital
from Benicia to Sacramento, It is therefore
ohiced beyond all reasonable doubt that an effort
to that effect will lie made, at the approaching
session of the Legislature.
In our opinion it is “a consummation devoi tly
to he wished.” In every aspect in which the
picstion has In en presented by those hostile to
the movement, the wisdom nml salutary results
•if the contemplated change have impressed
th mselves upon our mind.
If the want of adequate accommodations in
Vallejo—that magically created .city of tremen
(hions expectations and unimaginable future "lo
rn s—were of snfficiejit potency last winter to
ustily tue removal ot onr peripatetic and fre
po iitly perturbed State capital to Benicia, (and
he men ol Benicia seemed so impressed at that
ime,) then, we submit, a like deficiency in the
iown ol its present location should he produc
tive of tin- same consequence, and justify its fur
ther removal to Sacramento.
Sacramento is, to all intents and purposes, in
die very heart of the great body of the popnlu
;• n ol the State, and therefore more accessible,
nil at considerably less cost, fur a majority of
i e people at large. She has all the comforts, in
the way of accommodation for members, during
die session of the Legislature, that the country
can furnish—which Benicia lias not. Her cli
mate and location are pre-eminently pleasant,
while those of Benicia are the very reverse, as
die mi miters who last winter passed so many
days on those dreary hills, can testify. Not ull
dm weight of the iiiTt.Uidiiiotis cares of govern
ment, nor ol sundry gn at a wire sufficient
■u save them bom being chilled almost to the
heart by the damp and freezing winds fresh
'down Irotn the to d waters of .he Straits of Car
quiiiez. It is surely no good reason, because
men happen to be elected to make laws lot the
people, that they should la banished, as it were,
from the many delightful portions of the State,
to the bleak hills and inhospitable ( lime of Be
nicia. The curse is sullicicnl w ithout the su
pei (hums cruelty.
The objection so frequently urged against the
removal, that it would he alleedtd w ith an ex
penditure of half a hundred thousand dollars, is
simply ridiculoiiiiy übsaud. i here are ti n thou
sand iiicn w ithin onr borders who would jump
at u contract to remove all the trap and trap
pings of Government, from the Governor’s of
fice down. for the sum ol ten thousand dollars.
But we do not propose to argue this question
now. At the proper time w e may do so. Suf
fice it to say, Unit in our opinion good and suf
ficient reasons do exist lor the proposed removal,
and we trust the ensuing Legislature may coi -
suminatc the act.
Roads.—We understand that Messrs. Ferriug
ton A \\ ingate have had some ten or twelve men
employed the past two weeks, in improving the
road loading from this place to Whisky Creek.
We are further informed, that they have done
their work in a most thorough manner, so that
now it is quite practicable for a team to draw
even a full load of hay over the road, and Messrs.
Fcrringlon & Wingate expect to be able to haul
lumber from their saw mill to this place the en
tire winter through. Up to this time there has
been, we presume, not less than two thousand
dollars expended in improving this road. by
Messrs. L. 11. Tower, Kerringlon A Wingate, and
other enterprising citizens. Such liberality on
the part of individuals is dosei ving of all com
mendation. and we would ho glad did the law
permit and the county finances justify it, to sec
these gentlemen at least in part remunerated
for their enterprise from the County Treasury.
Ho! Foil lie Amazon It is staled that there
is at this tune a company of not less than 2,00 U
men organizing in iSan Francisco, for tin
purpose ot visiting the Amazon. We also hear
ot smaller companies organizing in various por
tions ot the mines. This must seem very singu
lar to foreigners, who are not fully acquainted
with the roving, reckless, daring, and ever dis
satisfied character ol the American. We verily
believe, il a \ ankee w ere confined in the Klysian
1 ields. he would be the most unhappy poordevil
in existence, and his w hole thoughts and desires
would be concentred in one longing wish to pen
etrate to the unexplored regions of the frigid
zones. Verily, a liv. Yankee is a queer creation
—a tiling " fearfully and wonderfully made."
But if some of these '‘Jonathans” do not rue the
day they abandoned our mines and laws, for
those of the half-civilized South Americans, we
will acknowledge ourselves poor prophets.
Bio Licks. —\\ e have been informed that the
claim owned by Messrs. Looney &, Hopping. on
French Gulch, has been making extraordinary
yields within the past few weeks. Last week,
with a force of seven meji, they took out about
two hundred ounces of beautiful gold. This
claim has steadily yielded good wages the entire
summer.
A miner also took out a lump, on the creek
above Morrow ville, that weighed twenty-two
ounces, kew diggings in Northern California
have sent so many men home with “piles" as
this same French Gulch.
A New k it-out, VV e were astonished on yes
terday evening to see our old friend. Sheriff
Nunnaih. splurging about in a verv siqierior
pair of boots, and wearing a pair of punts pei
fectiy unique ill the way of stripes. They beat
ours all hollow. Upon yiquiry we found that
our old friend Downer had just called him into
his store and rigged him out in the Zebra suit,
and his splurging was occasioned l>y a 1 uulable
desire to “ wet ’ them after an economical fash
ion, (it w-as raining awfully at the time.) (!<•

Gents :— Owing to the inclemency of the
weather, business for the past week lias been
very dull. .Winter seems to have set in, in good
earnest. Yesterday morning snow laid on the
ground throughout the town anil neighborhood,
and from appearance we should judge it has
fallen to a considerable depth in the mountains.
Hon. J. W. MeCorklea rrived in town on Sat
urday evening, and on Monday morning com
menced his duties as Judge of this District. —
That he gives universal satisfaction as a Judge is
acknowledged by the unanimous feeling of the
bar. As a man and a citizen he is highly es
teemed, and during his short stay with us has
made many friends. e only hope that he will
become induced to make this portion of the
State his permanent residence.
One of tin* largest anil most enthusiastic meet
ings that we recollect of having seen in the
county, took place on Tuesday evening in this
town. The object of the meeting con
sideration of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail Road,
the route by which it should enter the State, &c.
Dr. Smith was called to the chair, and J. C.
Burch appointed Secretary. The chairman
stated the objt ct of the meeting in a brief and
eloquent address. A committee was then ap
pointed to draft a series of resolutions expressive
of the sense of the meeting, (a copy of which
you will find accompanying this.)
The meeting was then addressed ably and at
length by Hon. J. W. MeCorkle, Messrs. Pilzer,
Chadhnrne, Rowe, and others.
The unanimous feeling of the meeting, as ex
pressed through the resolutions and the speak
ers, was expressed in favor of the Noble route,
us it is known to he the best. We hope the feel
ing which now exists in favor of this route will
not be abandoned until it shall have received
that attention from both the National Govern
ment and the people, which its position and mer
its so just !y entitles it.
Respectfully, yours, Adode.
[The resolutions referred to in theahovo com
munication, have not yet come to hand.j
Plows— Won its. — It cannot fail to strike the
attention of the newspaper reader, that of the
thousands of desperate and fatal rows —which
are daily occurring in California, nliniit nine
tenths, more or less, are occasioned by the softer
sex. We beg a thousand pardons for making
the remark, but truth, as well as murder, “ w ill
out.” However, no one at all acquainted w ith
ancient history, sjioiild be astonished at the fact.
!t is a maxim of uudisputable truthfulness, that
of the twoteacjiers “ Example” and “ Precept,”
the foimer is far the more impressive. Henci
when our guild mother Eve —the adorable cun
sort id onr too credulous, 100 fund, and 100 easily
gulled old lather Adam —by her “weaving ways”
succeeded in persuading him to do evil—masti
cate the Iruit—she set an example to her daugh
ters w hich they have followed with remarkable
liJelity ever since, and for which she shortly
thereafter—as every one at all familiar with Bib
lical history knows—was reduced to the painful
necessity of “weaving” garments out of lig
leaves. 0, woman ! woman ! thou breaker of
hearts and renevatef of old clothes ! thou who
dostdoat at onetime, in causing men to “strike
troin the shoulder,” and at another, in standing
by the sick bed-side with a bowl of chicken
soup in one hand and a cup of rheubarb in the
other! Thun assnager of griefs, mi igater of
p.n’nsaiid maiintactiirer ot little, good-for-nothiiig
l.uiy-like uicktiiicks! thou , but what is the
use of talking, for although we are not “ anther
of v:iris pomes,” like K. N. Pepper, yet like him,
we are ‘'lull of poetry and fcidiuk."’ So we
drop the painful subject.
D.ut.v California CnaoNK i e — -.-This is tin
title ol a new paper, the first nnnibi rof w hich
will appear in San Francisco on Monday morn
ing next. I lon. Frank Smile will he the editor.
We confess to a warm personal friendship for
this gentleman, as well as his printer associate.-,
hut, if possible, to a far greater admiration of his
ab uts as an editor. \\ Idle connected with tin
Allu that paper attained a position that it had
never occupied before. There is something so
peculiarly fresh and vigorous about his st\ in, so
(rank, tearless am) manly, that Jie never fails to
win attention and admiration even from those
who entertain opposite views. His very mode
ol thought, his introduction ol phrases an
words that nobody else would have thought of,
anil yet without vvhit h his articles would not be
coni] 1 1 etc —idiosyncrasies perhaps —always lend
to his writings, even upon the most common
place topics, a charm that we have failed to ob
serve in those of any other California editor
His very prospering is a model. Alter di dar
ing that it w ill he “ independent in the liilh si
and strictest sense of the word.” and that “the
character nl a newspaper should be like that of
a gentleman irreproachable,” he says:
The ‘•Chronicle” will march in the ranks of
Progress. Confident in mail's capacity for self
government. it w ill advocate an active civilba
torn, not a slavish adherence to antique pivci
limits and hu ms, venerable for their aged dlls!
alone, and remarkable as relies of snperaiimitei!
wisdom. Unshackled thought, dismission, ac
tion, are demanded by the spirit and enterprise
ot the age. The press, like the slati small, who
through distrust ol man dares advocate nulling
previously untried, is an instill, to manhood and
a drag upon its great destinv.
Person ai.—Judge J. \V. MeCorkle arrived
in town yesterday evening on his return from
U eaverville. It is his purpose to remain here
until alter the November term oj the District
Court for this County, which w ill commence on
Monday tjie 2!Hli iust.
New om; mv is a movement on foot

From Vrrkn,
We are indebted to A. J. Homely, Grom, Ro
gers &. Go’s utesseugerj for a Vreku Herald of tin
12di inst.
Mr. 11. describes the road as being very bad
over the mountains at present, owing to the late
rains. A large numberol' pac k trains are on the
trail. It itail snowed considerably on Scott
mountain, but melted almost as soon as it fell.
On Trinity mountain, however, the snow was
h ing about leu inches deep. The probability is
that the snow is now lying .considerably more
than afoot on either mountain.
From Bctte. —Wo are in the receipt of the
first number of the Butte Record, a well printed
paper published at Bidwell’s Bur, the county
seat of Butte county, by Messrs. C. \V. Stiles &
Co. It is thoroughly democratic.
Owingvtoa difficulty between two of the pro
prietors, Messrs. DcCourcey and Hall, in which
the latter received a severe stab from a knife in
the hands of the former, Mr. DcG. has with
drawn from the concern.
The Record says that already there have
crossed the river at Bidwell’s, 12,W00 head of cat
tle. 700 sheep. 300 horses and mules, 1,200 emi
grants. with 200 families, who design to locate
in the Sacramento Valley.
A Necessary Law. — We have learned from
good authority, that a bill will be subn itted to
die next Legislature, ami" probably In.come a
law, making contracts entered into nl road, to
be performed in this State, binding; aid provi
ding that any employee, having enteied into
.-nt h a contract and broken if, may be ci mpolled
to receive il by personal service on pain of cer
tain penalties.—,N. F. Keening Journal.
The effort was made two winters since by
Mr. Tiugley to get precisely such a law upon
the statute books, and that effort deservedly did
more than any other one thing to defeat him for
Congress. We trust that our Legislators next
winter will be warned by Ids fate, and not waste
the people’s money in endeavoring to pass a
law that would so effectually destroy the indc
pend nee of the laboring classes, and place
them where they are in the Eastern Stales, at
tin- mercy of the capitalists.
