NEWSPAPER PRESS IN CALrFsRNn.-We are in
formed,upon very good authority that, in Company
with the new regiment, to be commanded by Col.
Stevenson, gentleman of this city will 20 with a
press and type, to establish newspaper in Cali
fornia.
This gentleman is, we understand, we'll quail
fed for his duties, having had practical expert
ence in such matters already. 1t is contemplated
to make the press and paper part of the govern
ment enterprise, and make government paper
of it. The gentleman who is to establish it will,
therefore, go out in the service of the government
Colonel Stevenson has gone to Washington, for
the purpose of making proposition, to the above
effect, to the government. The propriety of
making government affair of it, is rather qaes-
tionable as a perfectly independent press always
exercises greater influence than one over which
thsre is the slightest censorship, however limited.
Still, under any form, press in California would
do great work. The Americans could be made
to know the intentions of our government in re-
gard to the territory in which they live, and the
absurd prejudices which many of the native resi-
dents may have toward us, and our country,

but on no particular day, and if they are deficient
in weight, every loaf found so, shall be forfeited
and sent to the Aims House, and fine Imposed

loaves in that way they will soon find out who
