The press and the Legislature have Of late
had much to say about the necessity OF de-
viSing ways and means to increase immigra'
ton to this State, but no very feasible plan
has as yet been determined upon. Some think
tall very well to curse the steamship monop-
oily and its extortions; to complain Of the in
crtness of Congress in relation to the Pacific
Railroad matter, and to question the sincerity
Of the States representatives at Washington,
but their complaints, doubts and curses effect
no good. The mail steamers do not reduce
the price Of passage, Congress works no fast
er than before. Some, too, propose the
establishment Of line Of large steam propel-
lers, and we think their plan a good one, and
would like to see it put in execution, but fear
that it will not be. Nor have we any great con-
Hdence that the State will be really benefited
by any such inducements to persons to make
California riSit. We want people to come
here with the intention of staying, Of remain
ing here the rest Of their days. Wemust not
forget that while low rates Of passage and
railroads will enable people to get here with
case, it will also enable them to lcaYc with the
same facility. We do not want to be under
stood as intimating that people arc very anx-
iOus to get away from California, but the fol-
lowing extract of figures from the Sacramen-
to Union looks little that way
ask months have sped, and what has been the
increase Of our population by during that tDc'
We have not the means at hand Of knowing pre-.
cisey, but Judging from the returns Of arrivals and
departures at San francisco since the first Of jan
unry, we should say il cunnot exceed ten thousand
souls while the departures from tho State have
been ~ many as six thousand, in all probability.

JoHN NrGENr.-AmOng the departures by
the last steamer, VIC notice that of John M
gent, Esq, the able and fearless editor Of the
San Francisco Herald. Mr.. Nugcnt, like all
men Of talent who have the manlincss to ad'
vocate the right even though it be unpopular
to do 90, has many bitter and inscriptions
enemies, who, VIC sec, following the base in
stincts Of their cOwardly hearts, have not hes
itated to stab him in the back since his de-
parture. We have at times disapproved the
course Of the Herald on some subjects that
were agitating the public mind, but VIC have
ever accorded to its editor our heartfelt en-
dorsement as an honorable man and cOnscien-
tious journalist, and have never felt like qucs-
Gioning his motives, however much VIC may
have thought him in error. But, If he has
his bitter, INSCRIPTIONS enemies, he also has
warm and devoted friends; and the honest
love and heartfelt commentator of the latter,
gained BY his bold and chivalric advocacy Of
what he esteemed to be the right, is an ample
" stand.of7' to the impotent malice Of the for.
mer. We bid him hearty God speed.

MonntaiM Democrat.


The proposal to remove the Capital from
SacEamsnto TO Oakland, which was at FIRST
considered > joke, has now put on the appear
ancs Of sober saSnsstnsss. The joint COM
Rittss Of The legislature appointed to visit the
would Be ssat Of government, the ambitious
precinct Of Oakland, and receive proposals.
&c, have reported iavOrably on the PROPOSE
tioa. We do not favor the idea OF selling out
the ssAt Of government to the highest bidder,
aud should Oakland o. any other place pro-
pose to erect marble buildings Of the most
costly character for the accommodation Of the
government, g consideration for giving them
the Capital, We should be opposed to it. The
people Of the State prcfeH Sacramento as the
Capital Were tho question Of removal sub
United to the popular vote, the weight of the
ballot cast against 1.-THE proposition would be
overwhelming. Oakland would came out in
the xocatiye. The Honorable members of the
legislature know this, and We are astonishcd
that they should have seriously entertained
the proposition, and much more that they
shOuld have made its consideration the "spe-
cial order Of day." We would rather hear
Of our law-makers having made an apPrOpri-
alton foe the erection Of suitable State build
ings at Sacramento, than that they arc spend
ing their time and the peoples money in dis
cussing the proposition for another "CapitAl
on wheels." Do these Honorable gentlemen
who hvOr the project imagine that the pro-
posed boMws from the citizens Of aspiring lit
lie oakland would have any weight with the
-psOplsi II 50, they are mistaken. Tho peo-
ple do not wish to be plundCrcd, yet they arc
ovs~ willing to DO taxed for all necessary gov
eEnas1tsl purposes; nor will they complain
when calledupOn to pay for the erection Of
Capital, even should it cost half a million
We venture the assertion that the people oil
this county are Unanimous in their wishes to
have the Scat Of Government remain at Sac
ramentO, and VIC therefore urge upon the Leg
islature to return an emphatic mo to the
propOsed removal, and to make an ample ap-
preparation for the erection of public buildings
worthy Of the State, at Sacramento.
