neutrality-suspicious..

contrary, be saw zen. winchester OF the
Pacific News on the Carolina at the latest
moment and was assured by him that there
had betn no arrival from Sacramento since
the Senator-so that the confagration story
must be unfounded. Judge P. himself came
down from Sacramento in the Senator, and
is confident that there was no fighting after
the Senator lefs-that the Squatter party
submitted without further resistance.
We are not so sure Of this, The leader
of the Squatters (for whose liberation from
prison the first forcible demonstration was
made) il Mr. JAMES McGLATcHY, formerly
Of this City, and we'll known among our
earlier Land Reformers. He has been very
decided in his resistance to the Iand;obbers'
or Suffer title to Sacramento throughout,
and if his party are animated by his spirit,
the contest will not be lightly given up.
We deeply regret that the Squatters
should have been tempted to resort to VIC
lence. If the Suffer title to Sacramento is
valid in law, the whole power Of the coun-
try must Of course be put forth to overbear
them; if it is not good, it can be legally
oyerthrown. There is no pretence of twenty
years possession adverse to the Squatters
to bar their action-nay, they are the party
in possession, without lease or covenant Of
any kind, and their claim is to be disproyed
or overborne by the spectators.
We learn that the Squatters did not make
their application for an appeal in due form,
offering the necessary securities, &c.-or
an appeal would have been granted. 1fso,
they acted most unwisely, rashly, crimi-
nally, giving to the land spectators and
gamblers, who seem to constitute the chief
pillars of Law and Order in Sacramento,
a fatal advantage. We believe the Squat
tiers had fair case, and might have SUE
ceeded had they treated it fairly. They have
now probably ruined it.
Judge Pratt informs US of the arrival of
Gov. JOHN P. GAINES in Oregon on the 9th
alt. after long passage around Cape Horn
Gov. Lane had resigned and left the Terri
tory (for California; on the 18th Of June,
leaving it without Governor till Major
Gaines arrived.
Oregon has vast elements of prosperity,
and is improving, but suffers at present from
a superabundance of money (none Of your
Bank rags and q scarcity of the neces5aries
of life. The Oregonians were early and
successful diggers in the Gold Region, have
returned with bags of Jumps and Dust out
their fertile fields suffered in their absence,
and their harvests are yet short. With the
finest Wheat and Grazing country in the
rid, they have yet neither Grain nor
Cattle to spare. Butthings will sober down
after q while, and whenever she sets to
work Oregon is bound to 60 ahead. Its eli
mate is mild and healthy, it's soil fertile,
and its timber, water,power, &c. inexhausti-
BILE. There is no finer country than the
valley Of the Willamette, and there are very
many valleys and plains in Oregon of like
character though perhaps inferior in area.
We are happy to hear that the rumorS of
Gold discoveries in Oregon are likely to
prove unfounded. There is little gold on
the Umpqua and Rogue Rivers in Southern
Oregon, but no great yield has been obtained
from either. We trust the shining scourge
is to be su ostantially confined to California.
