Mud-siII MIefr.

Senator Hammond calls white laborers mud
sills'-the rough timber on which well-polshed,
aristocratic boots may tread above the poIuting
dirt Of the labor-feld. We presume that he gain
ed his ideas of rough bridging from building ex-
tempOre structures from the slabs of his fathers
saw-mill at any rate, he is clearly an original
designer, and has erected mausoleum for him
self on which every white worker will throw dirt
until his memory is lost in unfathomabe depth.
Men of sense in the South will despise him as
republican buresque OF nobility, and will in
taunt and sarcastic jest remind him of the dismal
screechng of the file on his fathers saw his kin
dred in the North will deride him as an ignoble
pretender like the ass which, foaled in horse g
stall, puts on the caparisons of battle and brays
to initiate the neigbing of war-steeds The arti-
san of the East, looking from his dingy workshop,
will grin at the inflated offspring of the Connecti
cut sawyer, and the rough woodsmen of the West
would not hesitate TO drive their ox.carts over
the equipage of the snob who would denominate
his parents fellow -laborers white slaves
Already we hear miners speaking Of each 9th
er as 'mud-sills : the opprobrious word fell on
the fallow ground of freemens hearts, and it will
bring forth manifold crop OF execration for the
American who, in addition to base and unflial
insult, would goad them with the torturlng in
struments of servitude. Calhoun gained an i'm
mortality by his fiery impetuosity in defence Of
the South, but he was too noble an American to
sneer at the crooked backs and fiat hands Of
white labor paths go out, north, south, east and
west, from the grave of the conservative south
ern Clay, and Jackson birth day is made known
in the wilderness of Maine,' by proclamations
from cannon cast by the splay hands of Ham

will uncover his head when the antiquary of a
New England village makes known the fact that
SO many years before the wife of a Yankee work
ing man was in pain with the birth of child,
who afterwards in the Congress of republican
America, charterised the people who swathed her
infant as white slaves?' Who will remember

10 make just the least little bit of complaint of
the remarkable obliviousness of our Shasta neigh
bors iu regard to Weavervile. They didn't help
much to build the wagon road, over which much
Shasta merchandise is transported. Ben. Mix,
of Whiskey Creek, Lawrence Hughes, of French
Gulch, and Tower, of the Tower House, are the
only Shasta county people who IN any manner
aided that enterprise. On the contrary, numer-
Gus pals of cold water were doused on the pro-
sect In the beginning; every energy was put
forth to improve communication with Yreka
every little occurrence in that prosperous place
was noted, while like occurrences here were let
slip; every fnger-board in Shasta said nearest
and best road to Yreka by way of Sacramento
river
All this is very natural with rival villages but
II is not neigbborly it profits Shasta nothing,
and pulls back none on the prosperity of the
neglected place. Adventures will always find
theft way to rich and prosperous region, and
the inhabitants will always find means to make
known the resources of the place. Gold is the
most tell-tale thing in the world there always
will be furry and stir about the place where il
most abounds business will increase, the tax list
will lengthen, until the place, beginning to de-
cline, will in like manner grow jealous of the
next prosperous rival. But, as we said before
it's not neighborly.

THE better class of Administration journals,
Of which the San Francisco Herald is the leader,
are endeavoring to repair the mischief done by
others less informed, in endeavoring to read out
of the party all who did not endorse the Presi-
dents views. They will succeed; there will not
be any division of the party except in opinion on
that one question. The Administration has
learned an important lesson which will be of use
to its successors-that it is hazardous to coerce
measure obnoxious to the body of the people,
who, while they abandon no article Of political
faith, will rebel at measure which their percep-
tion of right condemns.

WHY THE PLACE is Nor WORRIED L. o.
undertakes to tell why the Canon Creek country
has not been more worked. In the fall of '52,
and in the following spring there was great
rush, and when gold was found pie ntiful on high
bars town was built suddenly, the bed of the
Creek was considerably filed; covering some of
the low bars which now pay well, and then when
gold had to be worked for, persons who came
with extravagant expectations left disappointed.
The mines are deep, and heavy rocks have to be
removed; the bars are from one hundred to four
hundred yards wide; the bed rock rises from ten
to twenty feet in front and requires considerable
labor and expense to cut through, Sometimes
three separate channels are found in bar. 1t
requires from three to six men to work a claim
to advantage; provisions and neeessaries of life
are higher here than at other places farther north
of Red Bluffs. But with all these disadvantages
the mines are rich and must be worked; as easier
working places give OUT

LADIES' CHURCH MEETING.-A number of ladies
met at Mr.. II. J. Howe's residence on Wednesday
evening, to consider about obtaining grounds and
holding festival to aid in building a church.
Mrs. II. J. Howe presided. A committee was
appointed to confer with Mr.. Hooker and Mr..
James Howe, in relation to eligible grounds in
their possession; and because Of the stormy
weather which prevented full attendance, the
meeting adjourned to following evening. The
sentiment was unanimous in favor Of commencing
the building at once.
At meeting on Thursday evening, 1t was de-
termined to accept the grounds offered by Mr..
Howe. Committees were appointed to obtain
subscriptions, and to make other arrangements
for the immediate commencement of the building
The place chosen is the knoll west side of the
creek, half way from Weaver to Frenchtown. II
