AGENT WANrED.-Th Editor Of the Cali
fornia Express, having possessed himself of
portion of our steamboat landing, wishes
US to recommend somo responsible person
to act as his agent in the collection of
landing dues. We are not sufficiently
versed in that particular branch of business
to state positively who of our many busy
citizens would be willing TO spare the time
to attend to the little affairs of the Marys-
Williams, but we DO know several persons
among the recent arrivals from that settle
ment who give ample evidence of their abil-
ity to collect Mountain detos, and who seem
perfectly capable to act as their own law
yers, and practice at the bar, in making
their collections. Won't one of these hon.

Another week has elapsed and still the pub
lie are as far from the long expected revelations
as ever. 1t has been surlnised that thorough
understanding has existed between the par ties
that one should be sacrificed by appearing gull
ty and absentng himself for that purpose until
the other should be exculpated Then he may
retnrn with impunity, as the law under which
he might have been punished was repealed
This looks plausible, and may not be far from
truth.
We have not, however, heard the first sugges
tion Of any money or its equivalent that has
been recovered, or is likely to be. The public
are very patient, and wait, but without much
J hope thatsomething may turn up. Onr neigh
Dor of the journal contents himself by pretend
ing TO think that Medill, Morgan and TreNit
knew all about the stealing, although similar
reasoning would bring Chase Wright, Baker
and Wolcott in the sane category II by any
means the former Auditor could know of an,
delacation, when there was no law authorizirE
him and the Governor to inspect, how can thu
present Auditor escape, when he himself said HI
counted the money! 1t is bad rule that vii
not work both ways and if there be any prctex
more than an angry or petulent remark, to fas
ten the charge on the former administration, til
facts that the desperate robbery occurred undel

are ten times more apparent and unquestionable

Investigating the State Treasury embezzlement
case, and process has been issued against the
brothers -in-law, Breslin and Gibson, evidently
sworn brothers in rascality. Process, however,
from some cause has been delayed until Bresliu
is on-comatibus, and Gibson has either led Or
followed in the footsteps OF his illusrtriOus pre-
decessor." He was in New York about the lst,

mittee, Mr., Sparrow and the State Auditor, it
is said have delayed their report for several days
awaiting Gibson's return. Breshn was about

Breslin and Gibson should wear the stripes
without the stars, and do honest service to the

authorities will be held responsible if, through

The TREASURY DEFALcATIoN.--If reports
which we have received from private sources
are correct, the statements made by Mr.. Gibson
SO as to clean his own skirts are of but little val

that in some of the places where he said the mon
ey was, it has not been found Governor Ches
we happen to know, had high respect for TIN
Treasurer, and even after it had been discovered
that he had been concealing the frauds ofothers
the Governor placed confidence in his statements
If these, as is reported, are incorrect we ca
come to no other conclusion than that is equal
ly corrupt with Breslin.- ZanesUille Courier.

ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE.--Rev L. j.
Simpson, pastor of Presbyterian church in
Allegheny city, Pa, is now being tried by the
Presbytery for the seduction of young woman
who had been placed uuder his charge, by her
parents in Missouri, she being at the time an
inmate of the Waynesburgh female seminary
The reverend delinquent accompanied her on a
late visit home, having been chosen delegate
to the general assembly at st. Louis, and both
going and returning was suspected of occupy
ing the young ladys state room, and was at one
time actually discovered by the captain and his
clerk in tho very act of crime. Simpson is a
very eloquent young preacher, a bachelor of
about 80 years, but has long been suspected of
indiscreetness in associating with the ladies, and
it is said has promised to marry several of them.
| Fl the Rev. Mr.. Simpson had beon Northern
man and Republican, what an outcry would
have been raised, and what intimations on the
sly that his Republicansm was the cause of his
lechery. Who has forgotten with what gusto
the locofoco papers attributed Mr.. Kalloch'S of
fence to his having been Fremont man? But
here is clergyman from the South--a prof. Sla

of his politics. He is not Republican--is h'

To show the Journal and its followers, wha
the politics of Rev. Simpson are, it is only nes

0TWhy is it that when the different county
officers in this county wish legal advice that
they go to all of the black republican lawyers
in town and get their counsel Is not the Pros

ing that business? 0ris it needed to take mon
ey out Of the county treasury to keep those 9TH

vice that was necessary. When the ProSecu-

AS this document will be subject to much an
imadversion and misconstruction, by the Kan
sas shrekers, who cannot afford to lose any OF
portunity Of attempting to excite prejudice and
awaken distrust as to the movement of the Ter
ritorial government we make room in our coll
umns to day for this earnest appeal and fair warn
ing Of Governor Walker to those who are using
endeavors TO create embarrassment and difficulty
in the Territory.
Gov Walker is not TO be deferred from the
performance Of his duty, by the clamer of the
macontents either at home or abroad. He can
not be curbed by the inaamitory denunciations
ofrun mad Southern politicians, who are no bet
ter than the freedom shriekrs" themselves, nor
by the open resistance of traitors in the Territo
ry He has offered everything that is fair
His efforts have been manly and cons sistent with
his duty and true patriotism, and will stand the
test of scrutiny and of time"
The result may be hardly anticipated. Gov
Walker, while he will do all in his power to OBJ
viate any collision, will not tolerate open rebel
ion and icencious infractions upon law and or
der. His policy has been peaceful and liberal
and should have disarmed all violent opposition,
