Ill SWINE SneaflnT.
% Our venerable friend, General
Allen Of the Marysville Ne'os, speaking
Of the defeat of the Pacific Railroad in
Congress, says, and say S truly:
1T is worse than folly for California
to pin her faith on the sleeves of poll
ticians. They have deceived and
mocked her at every corner, crook and
turn of her brief existence. The first
Californian who shall, hereafter, asso-
ciate the idea ola Pacific Railroad with
the election Of a President, U. S.
Senator, or Representative in Con
gress, ought to be rode on a rail or sent
to Nancouvcr's Island, at the option of
his insulted countrymcn.
After saying good thing the Gen
eral ought not to be found countenancing
the fancy operations of that verriest old
iddle-bagger, DR.. Huddart, who has as
sumed to represent English capitalists in
this country and California, owners of
ditch stock, quartz veins, &c, in Eng
land, travelling backward and forward
between the two countries on money
obtained with smooth tongue, in part
from some of our unsophisticated neigh
bors. we have long thought the ma
neuverings of the old Doctor ought to
be exposed, for the good of the public,
and we now take this occasion to say
that from the degree of success attending
his operations heretofore any one trustil g
him will be gloriously humbugged.
Years ago he commenced his travels
between England and California fiddle
bagging for the South Yuba Canal. At
regular periods we would hear of the
arrival again and again of Dr. J. Town
shend Huddarl, at San Francisco with a
million pounds sterling or more at his
command to commence and carry on
the great work. The Crimean war, or
some other great obstacle would call
the indefatigable Doctor to England
somehow before he could get fairly
started in the canal excavations, and
obliging him sometimes to take along a
small agency of phantom quartz lead
with a little cash from the stockholders
just to pay the Doctors expenses.
While the energetic Doctor was thus
crossing and re-crossing the Atlantic
and coasting and re-coasting on the Pa
cific, company of enterprising Neva-
dians completed the much talked OF
canal and DR.. Huddart was fain to try
another hobby. How many trips he
has made to England OH pretense OF
negotiating with British capitalists fol
the purchase of the South Yuba canal is
beyond our mathematics. He occasion.

The last magnificent scheme of the

steamers or propellers between Europe
and California, and ostensibly for this
purpose the Doctor is again riding the
waters. Glorious old fddle-bagger !
Well wager two story bellteaser with
any of the apostles of Dr. J. Townshend
Huddart who has kaleseed to ante up
that line of steamers will never be es
