MONTEREY, California; Jan. %.
The war here is al end. The restless Califor
mans, who rushed TO arms, have had their fight
and are now satisfied. Very few of them are
men of substance; nearly all those inlerested'ir
the soil are quietly on their farms, and are vel
suited that our fag should wave over them. Very
few, indeed, wish 10 90 back TO The arms o
Mexico. Whatever you may do with the ques
lion in Congress, or through diplomatic iunc.
tionaries, California will continue the fag she
goes for union with the United States, and no.
thing else. So you may consider that question
settled. We do business in the right way here
We lei the people who have an interest IN Inc
soil, speak for themselves. This is good Demo
cracy.

Politicians and diplomatic funclionaries may
dispose OF California on paper as they please -
They NAV surrender her TO Mexico, but she will
mol be surrendered. She holds her destiny in her
own hands, and goes win her whole heart fol
union with the United States. A few who have
lost office by change Of flag may, as they have
done, oppose ii, but they will be overpcwered BY
the mass of those who are interested IN the soil
