Now Arrangement.

Since we first established the Telegraph, nine
years ago, we have, with brief exception, du-
ring the whole time, been without assistance in
its editorial and business denartments,and have in
addition, done journeyman's work in the office
nearly every day during the time. 1t has been
impossible, under the circumstances, TO bestow
the proper attention either on the editorial or bu-
sness departments, and both, particularly the
latter, have been neglected We have made
arrangements by which this difficulty and incon-
yenience will be hereafter obyiatcd, and we trust
oursown interest and that of our subscribers bet
ter consulted, by having all departments of the
paper properly attended to.
Mr.. CHARtEs CLEMENT, will hereafter have
exclusive charge OF all matters reiatlhg To the
business Of the office, and the editorial charge, as
heretofore, will be under our exclusive control,
of which all interested, will please take notice.

change Of Postmasters in The towns of Bristol
and Salem. We hive not and do not complain
of the change of men: we stated our opinion that
the men appointed, were in every respect as good
as those removed; we complained only of chan.
ges which involved a change in the location Of
the offices whereby the interest, wants. and con-
reuielice If tho people who own the offices 'yete
sacrificed.
We are decidedly opposed to the government
having patronage of this character to dispose of
but as long it has, we believe fully that to the
victors belong the spoils, and we shall never
complain, except in the proper exceptions which
may occasionally occur, of the appropriation BY
the victors of the spoils. One of these proper
exceptions is when the interests of the people
would be sacrificed by a change, which we claim
to be the fact in the cases alluded to- the contta-
ry of which tho American has not shown or at
tempted to show and tits of this only we have
complained,

We know by this time where they "break,n and
also Of the loss OF time and the dissatisfaction OF
the Farmers as we'll as something of the cost OF
repairing. And we further know that fifty or one
hundred dollars in the first cost Of Machine is
not to be looked at in contrast with poor ma
chine, for while the former is paying five hundred
per cent its Investment, the latter is running the
owner into debt. And we fatter ourselves that
with this experience, we have acquired sufficient
knowledge TO be able TO build Machine that will

The undersigned would take this opportunity of

We would further state that we have most Of

MORE BY THE CRESCENT City.

Capt. Forbes states that the marvellous stories
respecting the abundance of gold, are not at all
exaggerated but on the contrary fall far short of
the reality. The limits Of the region in which
the precious metal abounds, are more and more
extended every day by new discoveries, reaching
as far down the coast as Santa Barbara, ncar the
line of Lower California.
Capt f., represents the Pacific as most de-
liglnlul seattle weather being always free from
storms, and the water calm and smooth as mir
rOr. Slight togs occasionly impede navigation
but they are seldom of long duration.
The United States sloop of war Warren ar
rived in the 30th of April, and within twenty
four hours, fifteen men deserted and took their
way to the mines. 1t was almost impossible to
retain men on board the government ships.
The California through the uniiring ex erlions
of Capt. Fofbcs, succeeded in leaving San Fran
cisco on Tire tst of May. From the 18th Of
Narch up 30 the day of sailing Cart. f. was
constantly engaged in endcavorng to procure a
crew. In order to obtain men, he was obliged to
pay whatever wages were demanded. This
course the company has decided TO pursue in all
cases where it is found necessary, as it il deter
mined TO keep the steamer running.
The City of San Francisco is crowded with
emigrants, such vast numbers Of whom are con-
tinually pouring into the place, that accommo-
datiOns of every kind scarcely to be obtained.
The meanest hut or shed, which would be
considered uninhabitable in the States, com
fnands enormous rates. Good provisions it is
equally difficult to obtain. The coarsest kind of
food is necessarily used. No person remains
longerin San Francisco than he is obliged to. but
all who are lucky enough to procure Transports
ton, Immediately depart for the mining districts,
where, on their arrival, they find no difficulty in
acquiring almost any amount of the precious me-
tai. From three 10 fur ounces Of gold are con-
Sidercd the result Of but a common d1yS Work. If
less than this was obtained, the digger would
move to a richer spot. Much more is occasion
ally gained in few hours, as the possessors OF
the large Jumps may attest.
There was great deal ofconycrsationi i'll Cal
ifornia respecting the formation of provisional
government, but at the last dates nothing of con-
sequence had been done. The people were anx-
iously awaiting news of the action of Congress
in reference to the territorial government, not
having heard of the future of that body to ac-
complish anything in furtherance of that much
desired object. 1t was, however, generally I'M
derstood that in the event of Congress failing to
create proper local government for them, a
State Government should be established on the
return of the miners in the fall.

DISrIISSION

1t is difficult for us to comprehend the philos-
ophy of that class of people, who think it better
to quietly endure an evil than undergo the eX-
element and effort necessary for its removal.
An evil in our political of social system, looks to
us precisely as an eSil in the physical system.
We all know that the, effect of quiet endurance
of physical evil is, of necessity, death. There IS
no such thing as repose in mental or physical ma
ture motion is the very first law of being, and
the parent of progress, and the presence Of an
evil without the application of an antidote, can
result in nothing but the dissolution Of the sys-
tenn in which it has a place. The individual
then, who prefers quiet to agi' alton in our pot-
cal clements, prefers death to life, for the simple
reason that it is too much trouble to live.
Agitation is the very element of our existence
as nation. Our government did not spring per'
feet from the womb of the revolution. We took
there but the initatofy steps in freedom-acqu-
red oily the liberty to carve out glorious future
to keep up perpetual bloodIess war on error
until truth shdll conquer the last rcmnant OF its
HIGHLY IOIGGS pliu NiiC tC'tt VI
resurrection. The revolution was commenced
with the sword, it must be continued with tho
pen and all other peaceful appliances, and II we
ratcr for one moment we shall be reckless to
our trust. If we permit for one brief moment
the dew drops to gather on our inactive armor,
while a recognized evil remains unconquered, we
shall be unworthy sons of the sires who first
sprung into the arena and dared the giant encs
my to battlei
Our country hats no greater eiiemies than these
who preach repose democracy no grcdter foes
than those who respect the desires and OPTIONS
of men above the dictates and demands of recog-
nized truth. We have heard much Of our glo-
rious union and our equally glorious constitution;
and language has been exhausted, and it would
seem vanly, to paint the doom deserved By the
wretch who should dare TO utter aught against
either. We plead guilty to no such patriotism.
We love both enough to demand that they shall
never be sacred from the touch of radical truth,
but shall be ever open to the requirements of the
forever progressing popular mind
| The man who breaches "masterly inactivity
towards palpable wrong and error, has no COM
prehension of the duty or destiny of mankind.
Such man is veritabe embodiment of what
we know as Hunkerism, and can have little
hear tfelt sympathy with the true and living de-
mocracy, whose mission tits, peculiarly, 70 work
out fcEottns In gotennnent, by warning against
error for the substitution of truth.
! We do not ask that man shall represent oW
views and come up to our standard in all things
We only ask to know that he possesses pro-
gressive, inquirng mind, open to the reception
of TRUTH and willing at all tines to strive for the
truth. Such a man may be safely entrusted witt
the guidance of governmental affairs; but be-
ware, say we, of the man who fears and repro
bates discussion.
