FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY
Too Fast,
A. A. SARGENT, EDITOR,

The Union says they are informed the
Nevada Journal has passed into the hands
of Democrat of the Broderick wing OF
that party, and that Gen. ]. Winchester
has been rendered the editorship and con.
troll of the concern.
There must be some mistake about this,
as E. r. Budd has been for the last year
and half, oNE-HALF owner of the con-
Germ, and two weeks ago he and John P.
Shelton, (both Wings, by the way,) pur-
chased the other half of A. A. Sargent,
which we expect to hold for the good OF
ourselves and our country. 1t matters but
little to us whether Gen. Winchester ac-
cepts or net, as his editorials will probably
lie under the table week or two before
being taken under consideration.
The Journal has not passed into the
hands of the democratic party, nor have
we rendered the editorship to any one, save
the one whose name stands at the edite
rial head E. r. BUDD,
JOHN p. SHELTON.

The act entitled g an Act to provide for tho srec-
ton of . State Prison, passed May ]. 1882 it will
be recollccIed, was repealed by the last Legisla-
ture and the contract, which had been made in pur-
suance of it, declared null and void.
BY an act passed May II, 1853. entitled 81 an Act
providing for the erection of State Prison, and
declaring null and void the existing Stat. Pris on
contract, -" the Lieutenant Governor Secretary of
State and Treasurer of State were constituted a
Board Ct Commissioner, and authorized to enter
into new contract for Prison buildings of sufi-
cient dimensions to a"comm edate two hundred and
fifty prisoners. The Board of Commissioners. as
authorized by the Act, on the fifth day of July,
entered into contract with Thomas D. Johns for
the requisite Prison Buildings.
The building authorized by the contract to be
erected it is understood, will be completed and

| The project Of connecting the Pacific with the
Atlantic ocean, by means Of rail road across the
continent it can with truth, be said is favored by
| the whole people of California and they too are
| as deeply interested in its speedy completion as
j those of any other section of the Uniou The SUBJ
iect during the past year has engaged so much oi
their attention. that it would be superuoss this
time, for me to point out, at length, tho great
commercial advantages to be derived from it, or to
present facts demonstratve of its practieablity.-
| The people Of this the youngest Of the sovereign
states, probably appreciate the Importance Of this
great work to the Union and they unanimously
| favor it, not only a measure which must meal
cuably advance all the great interests of the Pacific
country, and add greatly to its wealth and prosper
ity, but because it will connect in interest, they
now united in feeling the reople of the extreme
sections Of Iiis great contederacy. So far as Cal
fornia is concerned it is only necessary give the
assurance thst her assistance will be cheerfully
tended n every form consistent with her own and
the consultation Of the United States.
The Governor refers at ength to the duty OF the
general government to improve the Sacramento
and San Joaquin rivers. References are also mad.
to several reports accompanying the message. The
| Governor concludes as follows:

From SOn0ra.

We learn from the San Francisco Eve.
nmg Post that the steamer Southernsr
mas arrived from the south, with later news
from the Sonora expedition. The bark
Anita had arrived on the goth inst, with
a Reinforcement of 230 men. On their
arrival the natives fled, and nothing more
was seen Of them. The next day Capt. G..
A. Davidson, with 65 men, had taken the
town of Santa Tomas. Melendrez and
Negreta had fled and their property at Lo-
gralla was taken.
The Mexican government has conhsca-
ted the property of MellendreS, he being
outlawed by military commandant. He
has endeavored TO obtain it by trying to
drive the expedition from the country, to
do which he has forced the natives to en-
roll under his banner.
The fillibusters besieged the town seve-
raj days. During the first day lieut.. Nc
Kibbins was killed; captain Gilman was
severely wounded. On the 5th the fill
busters completely routed them, killing 8
and wounding several. The flag Of two
stars more waves triumphantly over Low
er California, and every thing is now quiet.

Stage Monopoly.

The Sacramento Union, on the author
ity of James Birch, corrects" statement
that the fares of the Nevada stage lines
have been increased. The correction is
incorrect The fares on the Sacramento
and Marysville lines have both been raised
about twenty-five per cent, and the mono
poly, of which Birch is president, now
charges tina. difference above what the pub
lie paid for months previous.
This change was not induced by hard
winter. The roads have been good, grain
and hay have been cheap, and no reason
for the change except the grasp;ng charac-
ter and the opportunity possessed by the
monopolists, can be given.
The combination had for its avowed OBJ
ject the keeping of others than the present
dynasty from creating stage lines. Per-
sons were prepared with all the facilities
of good stock, carriages, &C., to pu: on
lines at the most eligible points in the
State. Perhaps the best way to prevent
this was the consolidation OF all the large
companies in the State. BY their united
capital they ara able to break down any
less formidable association, and secure
their business on every route from compe-
tition. Having armed themselves with
this power, they are able to raise prices to
suit themselves; and despite the "correct.
ions Of interested parties. have actually
already enhanced rates of travel to ru-
inous figure.
But this grand consolidated monopoly is
not superior to public opinion and action
no matter how strong it may feel ITSELF
Let the merchants and other principal cit.
izens of Sacramento, Auburn, Rough and
Ready, Grass Valley and Nevada sign All
agreement to give their patronage and in.
Auence to any rival company that will
start a line between here and Sacramento
at the old or proper rates, and such com
pany can drive out this monopoly.
Our limited space will not allow us to.

ject, but we shall refer to it again al

NIGnr Warren We think it would be
we'll for our citizens who value the safety
of the city from fires, to see that the pres
ent efficient nig ght-watchman, MIR. AR.
jenkins, is not set aside by the new town
organization. Mr.. Jenkins organized this
watch about three years ago, has zealouslv
attended to his duties, and has been so for.
tunate as to three times save the city from
confasration. In view of this fact. ard
the sense of security his services give to
the public, we suggest that whatever ac-
tion may be taken by the town authorities,
that the services of Mr. Jenkins be retain
ed as private watchman. Too much care
cannot be taken to guard against fires, and
a few dollars spent in this way, may save
many Of us from ruin.
