Extension Of Limits.

We are informed that petitions will
soon be circulated for the purpose of pro-
curing names to send as petitioners to the
Legislature, praying that body to grant
foi Columbia Town Charter with all its
privileges, and establishing its boundaries
within the limits of mile square.
1t is true, that the County Supervisors
have the authority of establishing such
limits, but the extent of their authority is
to narrowly prescribed to answer the
purposes pf a large. permanent and pros
porous town; and with view to perma-
nency and to avoid future difficulty, many
of our substantial citizens are now inter-
esting themselves in eliciting the wishes
of the people in regard to it.
That the boundaries of the town pro-
per, should be extended so as to embrace
all of her citizens, no one can reasonably
question. As it is, many of her actual
citizens are living without the boundaries
Of her jurisdiction, hold valuable. proper
ty in possession which is thereby exempt
from taxation, and yet have. and, enjoy
all the privileges and benefits arising
from incorporation This is Unequal, un-
just and should be remedied 1t to the
interest of Columbia, that these people or
their property should contribute its pro
rata of the costs and expenditures of
town government. As long therefore as
they are in the enjoyment of its rights
and privileges they should not object to
so plain course of duty.
If measures are taken and prove sue
cessful in engaging the attention of the
Legislature, great care and attention
should be taken in having the charter
drawn in form that will not prove OBJ
lectionable in any feature tits provisions,
otherwise it would prove curse instead
Of a blessing. Furthermore, if action is
taken by our citizens in this measure,
they should 10 it Immediately, as no new
business will probably be admitted in the
Legislature after the goth of the present
month, or the first of March.

NIcARAGUA.-The news brought by

certainly encouraging to the friends of
Walker and of the new Republic. In
stead of being in the deplorabe condition
represented by the former arrival, he ap-
pears to be well fortified at Rivas with a
force OF from 500 to 1000 men, and says,
if he had the 500 men belonging to him.
at Greytown, he could clear Nicaragua in
two weeks.
This news has encouraged the organi-,
zation ofnew companies in varioas places
through the county who are preparing to-
/" emigrate to the new Republic, which
they feel confident will be sustained. Mr..

is winning golden opinions in his favor.
A correspondent of the City Item says ::
In every new case brought before
Judge Monson, the people of Sacramento
find new cause to rejoice that there is at
least one Judge in California, before
whom every examination must be con-
Quoted fairly and thoroughly. No pei
sonal influence, no pecuniary considera-
tions, no miserable political policy can
swerve him from the straight path of con-
scientious duty, and consider it the duty
of the press to support Judge MoRson.
however little he may regard either it's
condemnation or applause, in the integ-
rty of his judicial career. With the
gentleman to whom have referred, I
have not the slightest acquaintance, and

commendabe one, in adding my faint APP
probation to that of those with whom he
