Cold CoMFoRT.--The Union, speaking of the
Kern river mines in its issue of Monday last, after
learning that the discoveries are humbugs extends
to its readers this piece of cold comfort:
''To the unfortunate hoaxed we have only to say
go to the counties of Tuolumne, Shasta Sierra,
Ell Dorado, Calaveras or any other portion of the
aurterous region of the State, and you will speedi-
ly reimburse yourselves for what you expended in
your Kern river adventure
This same Sacramento Union has been one of the
most industrious papers in the State in printing the
preposterous hes about Kern river and even stop
ped its press short time since to give early crcu
lation to few fresh Kern river stories which haG
just arrived. The indiscreet publication of bogus
mining intelligence has done miners incalculabl,
injury. The Gold Bluff and Gold Lake stampede
were occasioned by spurious inventions through tn,
press, and published to aid spectators in vicious
mules This Kern river humbug is the latest whs
ky speculation in which the city press has been en-
gagged for the purpose of humbugging people in tht
Atlantic States and inducing emigration for the
benefit of steamship operators, sand hill spectators
at San Francisco, and horse thieves
If the Union and other papers would employ the
same care in publishing correct information about
the mines exhibited on other subjects, we should
hear less Of the migratory habits of miners, and
have vastly more gold dug every year

REDUCTION OF FEEs.--The reduction of fees in
Office exctes much conversation in comm unity. All
in this community admit the necessity of revision
in the fee bill. We venture that there is not a
single man in the county, county officers included,
who will say that this Legislature should adjourn
without reducing fees in many particulars. The
exorbtant fees now allowed in this county, as well
as Others effectualy exclude poor man from the
hall of Justice. No sane man, whatever may be
his wealth, will think of prosecuting demand for
small sum of money, when the fees he will have
to advance in the progress of the suit will equal
or exceed the demand.
The people of this county are unanimous in fa-
vor of reducing fees, Not word is heard against
it from any man, while thousands would be glad
to urge it. On this subject public opinion is un-
mistakable and our legislators will do violence to
the constituency they represent if they do not
urge with zeal great reduction of fees. In the
county of Ell Dorado can be found ten thousand
men, competent to fill every office, as those who
sit in official chairs--men, too, who would bo
glad to perform the duties, and perform them well,
for one half of the fees now allowed. Again, the
good sense of our legislators will teach them the
propriety aud necessity of reduction, without ar
gument Hardly a moments reflection is required
to convince any sensible man, and induce him to
act accordingly. 1t remains to be seen whether
representatives intend to legislate for officials
themselves included, in prospective, for the peo-
pie they were expected to represent.
