EDr1oR DEMocRAT-We are all we'll and
happy up here We have had very little
water until lately, but plenty Of it now, and
we are certainly making the most of 1t. If
John Bull should show his horns and our
mutual friend Uncle Samuel feel inclined TO
grab hold of them, purchase Cuba or any
other little thing, just let him come up here
for the funds we are not afraid to trust our
Uncle This is the most severe winter l have
ever seen in the mountains nothing but
snow Gt is showing now and hail stones ever
since the 9th of last December. For that
reason water has been very scarce. All the
claims here are paying very well except
MitehelIs, but his motto is " let her rip" SO
he is just as happy as any of u.s.
G. Selfridge not long ago found quite GU
riosty in his claim. 1t was the trunk of a
very large tree embedded perpendcularly in
the bed rock he has not been able to get to
the bottom of it; we all suppose it was eitheT

TuEATER.-The announcement of the Sg6il
for last evening drew one Of the most fashion
able and crowded assemblages ever witness
ell in Marysville. Miss Avonia Jones, in the
character Of Sybil Hardy, produced such
sensation as has seldom been seen in this city.
In this part she is indeed beautiful. and fas-
cinaton itself hung on every accent of her
tongue AMI every movement Of her FORM
Never have we seen an audience more enthu-
siastic and delighted. Mr.. Baker, as Eustace
Clifden. was indeed superb In fact Mr.. Ba-
ker has established himself, this season, as q
decided favorite with the Marysville public.
Miss Sophie Edwin, as Mrs Hardy. was wor-
thy of her high professional reputation. Miss
Cogswell is a very pretty actress and always
shows TO advantage Miss Jennie Mande-
vile. as Janette, was very good indeed, and
added grace and beauty to the performance
The other actors in the drama did themselves
infinite credit. and were well up in their
parts, barring, perhaps, one scene. The au
dience were much delighted, and would no
doubt like to witness the same play again
which we are most happy to say they will
have an opportunity to do, for it will be re-
peated this evening Many persons, last
evening recognized the main events in real
life upon which this superb American trag-
edy is founded, and will not miss seeing it
again.

THE TINES ON DOUGLAS AND BRoDERicK'
The Times speaks justly of Broderick' when
it says:
To-day Mr., Brodericx is regarded all
through the North rs bold and brave cham-
pion of the right. He is respected Tor MS Ge-
cision. his frmness and daring, equally by
the active man of business and the student III
his retirement. He has the respect oil tne
learned professor whose thoughts are mainly
on the abstruse sciences ndrecondte classics
as well as that of the village pastor and the
country politician. They can but admire MS
position on the great questions now agltatihg
the country; and the fact that he has forced
himself to so high position without money
without influential relatives, without tne
popular qualities of an orator, without early
education, serves but to increase their adml-
ration"
1: is equally unjust in the following re-
marks upon Judge Douglas:
Z" As between him and Douglas there is a
great difference The latter is n man OF nat =
urally low tastes and instincts lie has Won
derful powers as q debater or speaker, but
his associations have not been of an elevated
character He had no wish to associate with
men of the pure taste, refined manners ard
classic education of Seward, Sumner or Win
throp."
We became acquainted with Judge Doug.
las in Illinois in l841, and knew him intl-
matcly until lS49. He was man Of fine so
cial habits of the Western type" hail fell
low well met" as the phrase goes. He
how ever, cultivated those habits which quail
fed him for the most intelligent and refined
society. No man could well attain to the
high position which is universally accorded
to him as profound reasoner and distin
guished statesman, without possessing in al
emident degree the qualifications Of gentle
man. The position which he and his family
have for series Of years occupied at Wash
ington city, and which they now occupy
should have assured the Times that it mus
be in error in reference to the character o
Judge Douglas-Sdc Register.

"THE TEsT."-The Shasta Courier wakes sore
against the test recommended by the State Cen
tral Committee. 1t asks, "where does the Cen
trail COMMITTEES obtain the authority for institu.
ting test" The Central Committee did not in
stttute the test; but merely recommended it
Should any primary meeting see fit not to intro
duce the test It is hardly probable the delegates
appointed would be refused admittance into Con
yenton. But, then, aCe can stand il, and are will
ing to subscribe TO it. In looking over our cx-
changes we find great many sOre-fOoted Demo-
Gratis on this test question. Itis easy to see who
are true Democrats and who are Brnderickitss
The time has arrived when politicians and elec
tors will have to show their hands. We claim nc
fellowship with any politician who is so tender
footed he canno: support and stand by the test
The Democracy Of Tehama County is Of that kind
that it will rejoice to show its loyalty by heartily
sustaining the test.-Red Bluff Beacon.
Every man who does not swear by Lecomp
tonism in all its parts and portions, by the
letter and by the spirit, by all its restrictions,
tests or ATTITUDES, is "Broderickite"- ten.

In which the Leeompton party hold individ-

oil the party has no right to object to any
thing that comes from headquarters The
rreSluent can do no wrong; Lecompton Cen
'r"l Committees can do no wrong nothing is
to be done but to listen and obey. Well. let
those who desire such honorable thraldom
abide it. We think Gen. Dosh, of the Com
rier is made of better stuff. 1t was NO,
enough for the Leeomptons that he swallow ed
in great measure his convictions of nrinc;-
pie, for the harmony of the party, an honor
able though mistaken motive. but he must
eternally shout "glory, hallelujah" to every
thing that Lecomptonism does, or he il
straightway denounced as "Broderickite'
and a "tender.footed Democrat" Why, thes,
Lecomptonites would have man swan hi
manhood for the soul of a slave and beg leav,
to exist at the sovereign pleasure Of his mas

from Mr. Mayhem, the efficient and attentive
road agent of the California Stage Company,
says the Red Bluff Beacon, that he intends
putting on a tri-weekly line of coaches be-

This will be great convenience to the peo-
pie of Colusa and those along the route, and
We hope it will receive such patronage that

Revolution in Hayti-A Republic Proclaimed by
l.

tAAO OOpAOs
The schooner North Wind, Captain Higgins,
arrived at Boston, Sunday, bringing highly
important news from Hayti.
Captain Higgins sailed from Gonaives Jan.
l, and reports the Haytien part of the island
Ill state OF revolt against the present govern
ment of the Emperor SOulouque, or Faustin l.
as heis officially styled. The revolution broke
out on the 22d of December. On that day, a
small party of Republicans, headed by General
Jeffards an officer attached to the Haytien
army entered the town of Gonaives, and being
Joined by the people in large numbers, with
out opposition from any quarter, they became
emboldened by success anu renOunced all allie
glance to the Emperor and his government.
The population became greatly excited, and
greeted Gen Jeffards with unbounded applause.
The leaders of the emeute Immediately took
measures to consolidate their power with the
people, and taking advantage of the prevailing
enthusiasm which manifested itslf among all
cla ses, they, in the name of the people, pro-
claimed Republic. Gen. Jefiards, the leader
of the Republicans, was subsequently declared
President. 1t is stated that the whole affair
passed over without bloodshed.
The spirit of revolt thus inaugurated at Co.
naives Immediately spread to the adjoining
towns, and the whole country thereabouts was
soon in a state of commotion. The people of
AUX SdyeS anu JdCulel Two lIHpOitdHI lOWllSJ
welcomed the new order of things, and declar-
ed for the Republic and Gen. Jetfards. 1t is
stated that all the southern part of the island
are in favor of the change, and in some places
the people rose en- masse to receive the leaders
of the revolt.
On the night of January l, as Captain Hig-
gins sailed by the fortified town of St Mares,
he saw the place in flames, and infers that the
insurgents had met with some opposition from
the adherents of Soulouque, and that one of
the parties had fired the town.
When Captain Higgins left, no news had
been received from Port au Prince the capital,
and residence of the Emperor. The body of
his army is at that place, and it remains to be
seen whether the revolution will extend to the
capital, and if SO, whether the soldiers will
fraternize with the reyolters, and turn against
their old master.
Business was generally suspended on ac-
count of the recent excitement.-BoStOn Jour
