The PACIFIC RAILRoAp.-A correspond
mt writing to us from Washington, says:
"There is too much sectional jealousy against
this great and national measure, and everv
man who lives in town, village, or hamlet,
is desirous of having it the des sgnated point
of departure. No man works harder than
Senator Gwin, but then be is not the whole
Congress, neither can he drive men from
their position, although he am certain, tries
to win them over. Your folks who have set
the T. heart on this same Railroad must wait
patiently, and perchance it will yet come,
but there is much vexatinn of spirit rampant
Just now, and calm will succeed angry pas
sions, incidental to the defeat which some
men have sustained" s. r. Glvbe.

UNcALLED FoR.-The Placer Press of last
week contained a rignarole about persons
observing the Sunday Law, &c, in which he
copied an item from the Placer Herald
which stated that Mr.. Duck of this place
would hereafter close his place OF bu-
siness The article in question originally
appeared in the COURIER by the request of
Mr.. Duck, so as to notify his customers that
he intended to observe the law, and those
who were in the habit Of trading with him
might transact their business in his line dur
ING the week The Herald commended Mr.
Duck for so doing when the Press always
anxious to detract, takes .he cudgel and
rates about 'de. erv credit' If that paper
never received any credit only what it de-
served since the present editor has had CON
troll, it would hardly beknown. Mr.. Duck

A German Catholic priest, who was in
Sonora last week, and who resided five
wears in the Frazer river country as mis-
sionary among the Indians, characterizes it
as the most nhospitab|e and barren region
that he ever saw; the Winters are long and
severe, and he says that no amount of gold
however large. can compensate man for the
hardships to be endured in residence there
The reverend gent eman very nadively re
marked, that it did not look very wise to
abandon this paradise for desertregion and
rigorous climate.

THE MASS CONVENTION.
. Our Special Correspondent.

From Our Special Correspondent
LEAvENwoRTH, X. T., April 2 155S.
Last night there was a significant Convention in
Leavenworth. The fears that have been enter
tanned that there strong minority party being
Termed, which would be willing to take the Lee
compton Constitution, "to change it, provided it
was thrust upon Kansas by Congress, begin to dis
sipate. Here in the commercial metropolis Of
Kansas, az Convention called expressly to discuss
this subject, no one was found bold enough to avow
such sentiment. All of the speeches were rep
ettion of the same subject The Lecompton Con.
sttution should not be the Constitution Of Kansas
for hour; that such dangerous and polluted
fountain should never be permitted TO send forth
streams from which should be derived the organic
law Of the future State; that such corrupt at
tempt TO subyert all that is good in republican gov
eminent by despOtlc act Of Congress must not be
permitted quietly to eliminate.
The meeting convened in front of the Planters
House. A bonfire IN the street. Of old tar barrels
threw strong and lurd light on the crowds of spec.
tators and exhibited the forms of the speakers in
bold relief, az, perched on the top of temporary
platform Of old drygoOds boxes they karangued the
people. The muddy Missouri River ran in front,
and away in the dim distance could be seen, through
the darkness the forests of Missouri, the shores Of
which sent back the echoes Of applause 10 the sent
Dent that the people OF Kansas would never, not
for one moment, submit to the bastard Lecompton
Constitution. 1t was after midnight before the meet
ing dispersed, and not until Il waning moon had
risen to compete with the old tar barrels for the
credit of illumination.
Mr.. II. 7. johnson Of Lesvenworth was called
10 preside over the meeting. Gen. Lane first ad
dressed them. His speech was conclusive aud plain
enough. Fears had been entertained that he would
not commit himself on subject on which there
might be strong difference OF opinion. But his re-
marks fully met the issue. lie took the position
