Expresses VS.. I,laiis.

Quite discussion has arisen from time to time
in tue Legislature, as to the proper manner of
sending mail matter, by the members to their
constituents. Those lIaviag mail facilities seem
disposed to patronize the mails, and those who
are not so fortunate to be on the direct mail
route, OF course prefer the Express.
Mr.. DoslI in the Senate. advocated the plan
of permitting the members to exercise their own
inclinatons in regard to the matter. He paid
very jnst tribute TO the efficiency of our express
service in Shasta, and one which we fully en-
dorse. Without Expresses, would be er-
pressiy shut out from all intelligence of the do
ings of our lawmakers, a subject which the peo-
pie claim the right to supervise and direct.
The additional costs should not enter into the
consideration of the matter, for the people want
news, and they are willing to pay for it.

UNIvERsrTY OF THE PAcIFIc.-Ths University
is located in the Puebla of Santa Clara in the
beautiful valley Of that name south of the Bay of
San Francisco and is the best and most exten.
slve IN the State. At its last session. which
closed in December last. it had o35 pupils Al
the present session, which commenced on the
second Wednesday in the present month"; this
number was fatterinsly increased.
Nothing can show more certainly tha, Califor-
MIA is fixed fact than the flonrishing condi-
tion OF our public schools and colleges. In NO
State in the Union is there so munifcent a
school fund in California, and even now al
though in our infancy, there are several very
credtable institutions Of learning in the State,
where all the branches of polite education can
be acquired. Besides these colleges, there are
Sennaries for young ladies, Academies for boys,
and common schools for children, which will
ensure an educated population. With all these
advantages who would wish to mako old Fosey-

visit some friend We feel perfectly satisfied
that our most brilliant predictions of California
future will be fully realized, and this State will
be not only the richest, but that her people will

was loading the German would keep them at

Jones liberated the dogs. Here was reinforce

bearing their wounded, beating off the dogs
with their bows, their buckskin in tatters and
