TIE LITERARY WANTS OF CALIFORNA.-- In
speaking Of the new literary paper, the Adeqaual,
a mountain paper remarks that high toned lit
erary newspaper is much needed in California. -
The remark is very untruthful and absurd, and
was meant, we suppose, to be insulting to the
Golden Era. We need no better literary newspa-
per than the Era, there is not capacity or enter
prise in the State to make one better adapted to
the tastes and wants of California readers. The
critical reader who has read the prize stories
printed, Of late, in that paper, will agree with US
thai they are equal to any published on the other
side. The editorials at this time are elegantly
and forcibly written, and the critical department
is remarkable for excellence And much do we
question whether any company OF lHerateurs from
the Atlantic will succeed in decreasing the Eras
circula tion to the amount OF its exchange list
A BUSINESS POINT LOGICALLY CONSlDERED.-
The TRINITY Jou,aai is surprised that all the bu-
siness men Of a town do not advertise in their
home paper We will explain to the Journal a
great and momentOus fact, an absorbing and all
pcrveding truth, an extensive something which is
most indubitaby undeniable. 1t is that all men
are not wise men--all wise men advertise. Hence
the Jou971a5 may promptly dispense with its sur
prise, if il have any confidence in us and regu-
lar logical deduction, and at once determine why
its columns do not contain the advertisements of
every business man in the growing and, we trust,
happy town of WeayerviHe.-S Sierra Citizen.

number of prominent gentlemen of Richmond,
Va, having rendered the compliment of a public
dinner to Gen. Walker, of Nicaragua it was accept
ed, and the dinner was given at the American Hotel
on Thursday evening last. After the good things
had been discussed and disposed of, Gen. Walker
was toasted, and replied at some length in speech
of considerable power and eloquence. He gave
full history of his connection with Central American
affairs, and argued to justify himself in what he had
done. He declared it to be his determination to per-
severe in his efforts, saying "twice have sworn on
Bonded knee to support the laws Of Nicaragua: and
as long as have brain to think and arm to
strike, so long will strive to fulfill this OATH" He
said that one of the main causes of the opposition he
encountered was the fact that negro slavery was es-
sentia to the development and prosperity of Central
America; and he was accompanied In his progress
there step by step with negro slavery.
The company was also addressed by Hon. James
A. Seldom, Mr.. Pryor, of the South, Mr.. Ridgway,
of the Whig, and others. Mr.. Rdgway said he had
wished Walker success heretofore, and did so for
the future, ohateoer he mightdo. The South should
be enlarged. Men turned up their noses at fllbus-
tersm who would not hesitate to steal Cuba. Was
in favor of all lawful fibusterism. He gave: "The
South, right or wrong, and the success of Gen.
Walker" What will Father Syme say to that?

is obvious that the policy of the opposition is
to divide the Democracy. Their only hope Of sue
cess lies in that Too weak themselves to assume
control of public affairs by fair and direct vote,
they count on climbing into power over the ruins
of the Democratic party. Vain hope! "Sam
constructed his edifice certain ruins" and most
"ruinous" to that individual was the result. The
Democracy will stand together as one man, adopting
as their motto" union and harmony, every thing
for the cause and nothing for men,"
We trust that our Democratic friends in the vari-
GUS Counties, while preparing for the Charlotte Con-
vention, will not lose sight of their own County or
CARNATIONS with reference to the Legislature. Here
lies the danger, if any; and this is the point to be
guarded. The old way, the surest way, and the
only way which certainly promises success is to
hold Conventions and nominate candidates for the
Legislature. concentration of strength is thereby
secured, principles are maintained without reference
to men, and disorganizers are senced or put down.

GEN. WALKER-NEw SCHEME FOR COLoNIzING
THE BLAcKs.-In the House of Representatives, on
the 14th, Mr.. Stephens, of Georgia, spoke at some
length, explaining and defending his views as here
tofore expressed. He affirmed. and challenged con-
tradiction, when he said that under the neutrality
laws, as they stand-owing to their imperfect
the army or navy All doubt should be removed BY
legislation respecting these laws. He argued that
there no power in the United States to prevent
citizens from quitting this country and joining an
enemy, or to punish them. But for Commodore
Pauding's interoosition General Walker would now
be in the possession of the Presidency of Nj
caragua, and he was the only legitimate chief mag
istrate of that country. He repeated that General
Walker and his men should be sent back and full
restitution made to them for their losses by the
duct of Commodore Paulding, who kidnapped them.
Mr.. Blair, black Republican, of Missouri, gave no
tce of his intention to offer resolution for the ap
pontment of committee with instructions to in
qure into the expediency of acquiring territory, by
treaty or otherwise, in Central or South America,
for the purpose of colonzing there the free blacks
from this country and those who may hereafter OBJ
tain their freedom, to be protected as dependency
under the flag of the United States. He believed
that extension of slavery at the bottom of the
aggressive movements against Central America. He
was opposed altogether to the schemes of rapacous
propagandists, and thought that government ought
to forthwith take steps with the view of such COL
onization, which was recommended by Jefferson and
approved of by the fathers of the republic. Mr..
Blair though young man, will not live to see his
scheme carried out The vast and fertile reoions IN
which he refers are destined to be cultivated by
soce labor and not to be devoted to the colonization
OF free blacks

Late Intelligence from Utah.

Col. Cumming, the new Governor OF Utah, has
proclaimed the Territory to be in state of rebel
lion, and warned all the well disposed inhabitants to
rally around the flag ofthe United States. His pro.
camation is dated near Fort Bridger, Utah, Novem-
Der 81, 1857 Fort Bridger is about 1875 miles from
Salt Lake City. The Mormons, it is rumored, are
preparing to leave in the Spring for the British pos
sessions.
Brigham Young had delivered himself of a num-
Der of speeches breathing defiance to the United
States. He justifes himself thus:
eft the government of the United States have
sent soldiers to this Territory do not know it, for
have had official notice of such circumstance;
and you will perceive that treat them accordingly.
If they are sent by government, they are sent ex-
pressly to destroy this people and if they are
not sent by the government, they have come ex-
pressly to destroy this people; therefore l shall
treat them, as have informed the officer in COM
mand. the same as if they We're avowed mob
Not as would those who have heretofore mobbed
US, but Us parties who have come to mob us now
Though we may believe that they are sent by the
government of the United States yet l. as Governor
of this Territory, have no business to know any
such thing until am notified by the proper author
ity at Washington. | have right to treat them as
a mob, just though they had been raised and Off
cered in Missouri and sent here expressly to destroy
this people. We have been very merciful and very
lenient to them"
OF course the officers and soldiers of tho U. 8.
army are very much obliged to Brigham for his
lenency.
Brigham discourses as if he mad at his command
some secret and dreadful means to destroy his ene
mics. He says:
Gas informed them 1.-THE solders] in my unofficial
letter, had they been those mobocrats who mobbed
us in Missouri, they never would have the South
Pass. We had plenty of boys on hand, and the
mode of warfare they wouldshave met with they are
not acquainted with. would just soon tell them
as to tell you my mode of warfare. As the Lord
God lives we will waste our enemies by millions, if
they send them here to destroy US, and not of
us be hurt. That is the method intend to pursue.
Do you want to know what is going to be done with
the enemies now on our borders? If they come
here l viii tell you what will be done-as soon as
they start to into settlements let sleep de-
part from their eyes and slumbcr from their eyelids
until they sleep in death; for they have been warned
and forewarned that will not tamely submit to
| being destroyed Men shall be secreted here and
there, and shall waste away enemies in the name
of Israe's God. I have thought that perhaps the
Lord designs to furnish little clothing and am
munition, and if he does he will permit our enemies
to try to come in here; but if he sees that that
would be an injury to US, he will turn them another
way"
