Presenting. from all we hear, that there Is
some foundation for this bulletin, we have few
words to say about it
We are yet TO be convinced Of the proprety OF
connecting the admission Of California with any
other question whatever California Is State
which Congress admit or reject, but cannot re-
mand into Territorial condition If she is not
wanted in the Union she will not cry about It she
10 perfectly able and willing to take care OF herself
But she is in no danger OF being rejected. All her
friends ask is he rotc, aud whenever that can be
reached she will go through each House by vote
OF nearly two TO one, without compromise She can
be put through by daylight, and asks no odds any
how. Why, then, include her in any compromise
New Mexico has her hand IN the tiger :
mouth, unbeppily, aud we have long been convinced
OF the necessity Of some Compromise to release 1t
II the Northern Democracy, az they call them
selves would vote to organize her with her an
ci eut and nghtu boundaries, las they clH vote Il
admit Texas We would prefer no Compromise a
all But since they won't do it, and she IS IN peri
of subsection to Texas we will consent to any rea
sOnable Compromise To- save her. w would agrc
no other way of escape Tor her being open-t

deem most important without one But any bI

does not give her Il clear quittaucc and ample pro

Perhaps the boundary OF Texas, say a
Eve The People will admire TO see list

not shut out the claim of Texas 10 dominion owe
the better part of New Mexico For what reaso
should Representative OF Free Labor do anythn
of the sort Better, far better leave her unorgai
ICED than that
But again. We are prepared To sacrifice niue
to rescue New Mexico from the peril or the fear
Texan subjugatio but not too much. Ii We wai'
the Proviso to this end that should suffice To CO

The odds must not be oil against us.
Friends OF Freedom and Justice be not o
