AT the commencement of new year, the under.

friends and the public of 0roye and its envrons,
for the liberal share of patronage they have received
the last eighteen months, and 10 remind them that
they do not purchase goods on sixty or thirty days
credit, but pay cash for every cents worth they buy
aud having no ngent to pay per centage to, of
the partners living in San Francisco, they are enabled
to offer Wines Liquors, Sirops, Cordinls, &c at
lower rate than any house in Orovle aud as low as
any arm east OF Sacramento. Their Burton Ale is 50
universally esteemed as TO need no comment Their

Opinion. OF ts,,,southern Press.

| The following extracts from the Southern
press show that there is National senti-
ment in that portion of the Union, and that
the principles and professions Of the Demo-
cratic party were we'll understood every
where. These sentiments from the South
ern press at this juncture, are as honorable
ard high.toned as were the national sen,i :
rnents OF the Northern Democratic press,
when surrounded and overwhelmed by the
thick gloom of sectionalsm. While the
press Of every section entertain such ma :
tional sentiments, we may we'll doubt wheth-
er the ultra views Of extremists, of either
section, can accomplish little by their in.
sane rawlings II is matter of regret that
q democratic administration should have
settled upon policy endorsed by either ex-
IRENE but the fact is patent 60 the country
that the Kansas policy Of the Administra-
ton, is sustained by such sectional journals
as the Charleston Mercury, Richmond
South, twhig and X. N } and the New York
Herald Fremont organ.) For once these
journals unite to sustain the policy of an
administration, and the worst feature of the
affair is, that their administration was cho e.
sen under the most solemn pledges to carry
out the national Democratic sentiment of
unrestricted popular sovereignty. But here
are the extracts. We commend them to
the attention of that portion of the Demo
cratic press of California who have exhibited
n willingness to surrender their principles
for the favors Of power:
We affirm that the Democratic party are
pledged beyond redemption to insist that the
people of Kansas shall approve their own
Constitution. They made the pledge in the
Kansas bill they made it in all their adj
dresses and speeches to the people of the
States and failure TO see that this pledge
is redeemed to the letter, would be gross
derelicton Of principle, and gross breach
of faith Louisville (Ry.) Democrat.
We are very sorry to find the Telegraph
lettering behind its contemporaries in this
great crisis We apprehend that it's course
is the result Of misapprehension as to the
real point in issue between the Democratic
press and Governor Walker. There is no
objection to the proposition of submitting
the Constitution of Kansas to direct vote
Of the legally qualified voters of Kan
s.-Georgid Times and Sentinei--Dcm-
cratic.
In the second place, only one of its fea-
lures is TO be submitted to the freemen, who
are to be influenced in all their future ope-
rations by its action-they are permitted to
vote upon single clause of the Constitution,
and not upon tho whole instrument This,
in country like ours, is monstrous.-..M0nt-
gomery (.aia } Journal
The position occupied by Mr.. Buchanan
and the Washington Union is Numerically
opposite to that of the Democracy in the
last campaign. The cry OF the Democracy
was non.nterference by Congress. Their pc
siton is equivalent to the Wilmot Proviso,
the main principle of which was Congress

County Treasurcrs 10 he Bankers.

Mr.. Lee gave notice Of bill in the AS
sembly on the 9th. to provide for County
Treasurers to receive deposits of coin and
dust and issue certifcates--or in effect to
entitle County Treasurer's to do banking
business under theiv official bonds. The os.
teusible object is TO secure safe place of
deposit for those who have more cash than
| is convenient for them to take care of -
Heavy bonds are to be required. and the
Treasurers are to receive additional salaries
and per centage on the stamped certif-
Gates they dispose Of. If this would increase
the revenue arising from the stamp act, it
appears to US that it is still measure of
bad policy. The people will hardly care to
pay their officers an increased salary for the
purpose ofguarding tho treasure of misers
and hoarders. Nor is il proper or Demo-
cratic for any such business to be made q
part of the duty of our government officials
The more simple their duty can be rendered
the better
Another objection to the bill as foreshad-
owed, is the power it confers on tho Govern
or to appoint tho Receivers thus increasing
the patronage Of the Executive almost with
out limit.
Under such an act, the State would be
responsible to the depositor, and would have
to rely upon the receiver and his bondsmen,
in case Of loss In fact, so far as we can
judge of the proposed bill from notices of its
outlines, it would have the effect of making
the State government banking institution,
to receive and pay out deposits. 1t would
be very convenient for person to make a
deposit. with tho Sheriff and County Treas
urer to guard it, and the State responsible
for its return when called for. II is very
singular idea to be entertained by Legis-
lative body, as ii now appears. and il the
notice ever attains the dignity of printed
bill, We hope the author will furnish us
copy, thut VIC may fairly understand its pro-
visions

The Hon. Governor sent in to day the
name Of Juias Korn Of the San Francisco
German Vigilante Democrat. as one of the
Port Wardens Of San Francisco No other
name was sent in, ms suppose his wa. n
feeler as to the balance. The Coz. has an
idea that San Francisco will never be demo-
cratic, and as he is an aspirant for Senator,
he supposes that perhaps a mongrel hybrid
ticket may be sent from there, which will at
that time vote for him but he will be de-
ceived, anc San Francisco, before the next
Senatorial fight comes off, will have a
straight democratic delegation. My reasons
are these that the head men of the V. C.'s
will, in n short time be "busted," CONNER.

other place.
Tho outsiders will not acknowledge their
relationship; the nervous and timid ,cW all
commit suicide, and consequently the demo-
Gratis will have q majority.

will be lasting shame and disgrace to ap-
point foreigner to an office, who has been
Nigllante, for the fact is well established
that it was tho intention of the Vigiantes
TO form distinct and separate republic on

when he took out his naturalization papers

country. Yours,

Bangor Specimens.

Professor Burr showed us the light of his

several months. He 10 now engaged in min

specimens from his claim. Said specimens
are ten in number. comprising tivc pick
points, four "chips" from the face Of o
sledge hammer. and one bright sparkling
piece Of iron pyrites, about as big as lump
O. chalk. One Of two facts Is proven by
these specimens, viz; either that the Ban
gor diggings are 'awfur' on the picks aud
sledges Of the present generation of drifters,
or that said diggings were the scene of an
tediluvian mining operations. Professor told
us that his trip TO 0rovillc was in cbcyance

OroviIle, the Town OF CriunIcs

OroVilie, the TOWn OF Cripplcs.
A town Of the rapid growth and very dis
tinguishing qualities Of Orovile, should en-
joy some peculiar designation. Now we
know San Francisco as the City of the Bay,
and New York as the empire City. Ii is nee
essary that our interesting town should have
some appeilatou as indicative of some re-
markable popularity. We christen it then
the Town of Cripples. The other day our
strolling procivities led US into Justice Ber-
rvs Office. We had no fault to find with his
dignity as magistrate. In fact we were
much struck with the order and decorum
manifested by litigants and spectators, and
were much disposed to attribute il to the
threatening appearance of two huge sticks
that lowered by the side of this excellent
official. At first we thought they were bat
