Tehama Correspondence.

TEHAMA, Dec. Is, 1853.
MEssRs. EDIToRs:-I am not certain that you
give every scapegrace nod of recognition as 9
correspondent; but having been reader o
your valuable paper for some time, l have seen
letters from the able pen of "Adobe," the gifted
:" Madeline" and the serio-comic " Matildy,'
but never u one Of any sort from Tehama.
1t is therefore to the novelty of the thing, ra
ther than the intrinsic worth, that trust for the
publication of these lines.
1t is generally believed here-it may be su-
perstitious notion-that Tehama will be place
of some note; that at some remote period IN
futmo, it will have paper published here, have
steamboats, running here have the county seal
located here, and other appurtenances belonging
of right to populous and fourishing city. In.
deed. though Tehama has been declared "ex-
progressive" "defunct,' broken down." &C.,
there have been great results from less auspi-
cious beginnings. We have two stores, one
drug store, one black smith shop, one hotel and
another in expectancy, Lawyers none, but Doc
tors ad intinitum; four stages leaving daily, and
looking for steamboat every shower.
With all this sub stratum Of greatness there
is one serious drawback. The unsettled state
of our land claims must have a detrimental ef.
feet upon the progress of Tehama, SO long as
thew remain in this condition. Squatters are
not willing to proceed with permanent inn
provements where they are subject to eject
ment upon the confirmation of grantees rights;
neither are grantees disposed to spend money
upon that which may be wrested from them
without remuneration; and hence we are at a
dead stand STILL This difficulty removed and
Tehama may look up, for this is unquestionably
a fine agricultural section, and must, at some
time, be wealthy portion of the State.
There will be an effort made-most probably
the coming session Of the Legislature-to have
a new county struck off from Colusa, Shasta and
Butte. If this be accomplished, it is hoped that
Tehama will be the county town. We gener-
ally presume upon the aid of the Shasta delega-
ton in the Legislature, and particularly upon
Senator Sprague's cooperation.
Opposition will be offered to this move by the
lower part of this county, but we trust it will be
over-ruled. As it is, we labor under great in
convenience, as we have to travel sixty miles
for license or little scrap of law, and pay
well for it besides. Yours, &C.,
