Section 4th Of the law says:

MILITARY AFFAIRS" A note from Gen.
Kibbe," says the Trinity Journal, states
that Messec's company are encamped near
Pardees in Humboldt. He adds that they
have a company of seventy of the best men
that could be selected for such an expedition
Capt Underwood's Regulars, though having
disposition, cannot cooperate much with the
volunteers; their orders from Major Rains
are peremptory to protect the trail; they
cannot, for the present. leave that duty to
pursue Indians-it must be performed by the
volunteers, who the General thinks, are able
to do it, if they can reach the hostile camps.
We learn, otherwise, that on arrival at
Pardee's the company were disappointed in
meeting supplies but it is presumed they oh,
tanned sufficient from the camp of the Regu-
lars The poor fellows will suffer severely
from the storms of the present week, but
most of them are Injured to mountain wealth
er From information received at various
times, from persons familiar with the country
we believe the volunteer company too few
for such an undertaking; nevertheless one
of the border men in the company is equal to
half dozen persons not familiar with Indian
fighting. We have not much apprehension
of their safety-the difficulty will be that
they cannot catch the savages and cannot af
ford the necessary subdivision to circumvent
them

JAMES ANDERsoN.-This unfortunate Young
man, whose case has caused so much pity and
so much mention in the papers, was here,
yerterday, in the station house. lie had
been sitting out in front of the Western Ho
tel, where he became such an offensive sight
to the passers-by, that he was removed to
the station house by the police, where he was
carefully provided for, and will be sent down
to San Francisco to-day His case is truly a
deplorable one. His lower jaw is in a state
of rottenness, and has been for some time
falling off piecemeal. The cause of it was n
blow he received some Is months ago, on
board the whaling ship Parachute, from a
brass knuckle on the hand of the second
mate, brute named Creery From want
of attention, he caught cold in the wound
and it soon reduced him to a wretched con
dition The U. S. Consul found him at the
Sandwich Islands and shipped him to San
Francisco, where he was put into the Marine
Hospital. He staid there some tine, but it
seems that the physicians there could do
nothing for him. DIR. Cooper told him, he
says, that, if he could get money enough to
board himself somewhere for the requisite
length of time, he, the doctor, could cure
him. and would do so for nothing. In the
hope of raising the money, the poor fellow
left the Hospital and came up here, but he
presents such a spectacle that hotel-keepers
and keepers of restaurants, and others doing
business, do not want him about and so he
has been taken up, as an act of kindness, by
the police, and will be sent back to the Ma
rine Hospital, as stated above He SAYS, that
he could easily raise the money necessary to
board himself during the promised attend
ance on him of DIR. Cooper, if he could only
be allowed to go around and beg for it. but
that he is such an awful sight that people
will not allow him to do it. If it be true
that DR.. Cooper can cure him, and the official
physicians of the hospital cannot, means
ought to be taken by the benevolent citizens
Of San Francisco, where DR.. Cooper lives. to
get him into the hands of that physician.

BUSINESS OF SHAsrA.-The prospects of our
little town, says the Shasta Republican, seem
to be Frightening. 1t has been voted dead "
by our neighbors very frequently, but in
spite of all these grave aud chilling edicts, it
"still lives" 1t is a good-very good-town.

REGISTRATION LAw.-We had the pleasure
of meeting, yesterday, with our friend, Ed
win r. Campbell, Esq. State Registrar In
qrirng of him how the Registration Law
worked, we learned that it was not complied
with as it should be- Those whose duty 1t IS
to see that births, deaths and divorces are
registered, treat the law, to great extent,
with supreme contempt Now, this Is who'll
" wrong. The law is n useful one, and
ought to be complied with scrupuluusly. If
parties. whose duty it is TO obey it, neglect
to do so, they ought to be made to do it, and,
if the law is not sufficiently stringent, in re-
should be amended SO rs to be made So
There are many potent reasons why such an
enactment should be in existence. 1t reduces
all questions of descent, and, in very numer-
Gus cases, important questions of title, to an
absolute certainty, and thereby secures for
innocent parties rights which might other
tstical record, and in numerous other re-
spects which we shall not mention. In
France, we believe, this kind of law is con
sidered of so much importance, that, If the
birth of child is not registered within
certain length of time, the child is consid
cred illegitimate, and is so treated by the
courts Registration laws are quite common
in other States of the Union than this, and
are strictly enforced.
As matter of information to those who
may not have seen the enactment, we will
state that the law requires every marriage,
birtl,, death and divorce to be registered, by
the Recorder of the County in which the
same may take place, and parties married or
divorced, or the parents of children born, or
the near relatives of persons deceased, (if we
recollect aright) are required to give the Re
corder the requisite information, by going to
his Office for the purpose.
The following are the items necessary to be
registered
OF Marriages-The date, locality, names in
full of the parties married, residence, age.
color, whether single or widowed, by whom
married, and the residence and official station
Of the person performing the marriage cere-
mony
OF Births--The date, locality, name, sex
md color; also, the names, nativity, color
md residence of the parents.
OF Divorces-The date, names in full, and
residence of the parties, the name Of the ap-
plicant, ground of divorce, and the court
granting the same.
OF Deaths-The date of disease, the name,
sex, age and color, and whether married or
single, occupation and nativity, cause of
death, and the place of burial.
Section 4th of the law says:
every party, on entering a record of
birth, divorce, or death, shall pay
TO the County Recorder, for making such en-
try the sum of fifty cents; and every person
neglecting to comply with the provisions of
section three of this act, within one month
from the date of such marriage, birth, di |
vorce, or death, SHALL on conviction thereof, |
be subject to a fine of not less than ten, nor |
more than one hundred dollars one half of
which shall be paid into the registration fund,
and the other half to the person giving in
formation Of each neglect"
The State Registrar should Immediately |
every person who fails to comply |
with the law.
