WHERE ARE You Now,-The Sacramento
Register (Broderick) says of the Times:
1T seems to forget the fact stated in our
exchange, that the election of the four Con
grsssmen in Connecticut was brought about
by a combination Of parties against Lecom'
ptonism' "
" Yes, but the Register should bear in
mind that Mr.. Douglas sent letter tc
Connecticut advising his friends to vote
against this combination of parties against
Lecomptonism or in other words. to vot,
the regular Democratic ticket which had on
it the names Of Bishop and Arnold, both oi
whom voted for Lecomptonism, and are Lee
comptonites still. Come, own up that Dou'
elas has deserted you."-San Francisco

rsc- The Trinity journal has been told of
a most i'm mportant discovery made by Mr.. G.
Crosson, resident of East Fork, which, II
true, will be source of great profit to the
dscoverer. Mr.. Crosson has discovered, by
experiment, that the juice of the manzanita
berry, which grows so plentiful here, when
extracted and properly distilled, furnishes
superior article Of gin. 1t is said to be far
superior to that manufactured from the Ital-
ian juniper berry. Dealers in S(ch)uapps
will do well to inquire into this matter.

Women rexuire more sleep than men, and

Lawyers can sleep as much as they choose,
as they will thus be kept out OF misehi ef.
Clergymen are allowed to sleep twenty-four

A Rising In Hungary.

A Paris correspondent says: sit is
said that proelamations have been (or are
to be) circulated in Hungary, calling upon
the people to throw off the domination OF
Austria. Perhaps Hungary will be
offered as bait to Russia, 1t is certain,
however, that the Cabinet of Vienna pro-
fesses to feel no sort of alarm about Hun
gary, and disbelieves the possibility of a
rising" 't .aa ..
If the Hungarians allow the present
opportunity to pass by without asserting
their independence, when Austria is en-
gagged in Italy, and when Louis Napoleon
is prepared to back them with the armies
of France, it will be proof positive that
the sympathy expended for them in this
country in 1851, when Kossuth was here,
was undeserved. -'

Horrible Accounts from the Plains.
ST. LOUIS, Tuesday, May "a.

ST. Louis, Tuesday May "a
The regular correspondent Of the DEM
ocrat, writing from Denver City on the 9th
inst, recounts the most deplorable condi
ton of things on the plains-emigrants
dying of starvation, and others subsiSting
on prickly- pear and wild. onions found
along the road. The Stage Agent re-
ports picking up a man, named blue, re-
duced to skeleton from starvation. He
started with two brothers, when one died
and the remaining two ate his body
Another died, and he in turn was nearly
devoured by the survivor. A man named
Gibbs had reached the mines in starving
condition, and expressed the opinion that
his party, numbering nine, had all perish
ed. Many graves are reported along the
route, and much property had been de,
stroyed and abandoned on the road.
The writer of the letter says that the
departures from the mines are about equal
to the arrivals. g.. ......... .....
About five hundred returning emigrant;
reached st. Joseph on Saturday, all O

-gTbis gentleman, our candidate for

sbless and Best men in the State. We
believe that he can carry more votes in

have been dominated; and the same is
trse throughout the State generally.
The Republican press so far as we
hase seen an expression of opinion, and
the Republicans of this place all agree
Shsts be is the strongest man we could

tsat many Of the-more conservative Of
that party will vote for him. -,

Post Office Matters.

The case of Westcott, the Postmaster
of Philadelphia, was considered in Cabinet
Council yesterday. The charges pre-
ferred against him are very strong and
explicit. His defence, which is very e.
laborate and adroitly prepared, will not
save him. He will be dismissed. ~ Y.

The case of the Philadelphia post Of
fee has been sometime before the depart
ment. The same agent who investigated
the Chicago Office investigated that and
the Detroit Office. His reports have
been vindicated in two cases, and the
third is awaiting the defence Of the Chi
cago Post Master. The charges against
the three Offices ranked in point of mag
nitude as follows: the Detroit Office
very bad. Philadelphia ofiice-bad; but
not equal to the Detroit Office. Chicago
ollice-most infa nous.
The Postmaster General will not tol.
crate fraud and iniquity in the official
conduct of any of his Deputies; and the
evidence in the case of the Chicago of.
fee has already sealed the fate of its head
whose decapitation will take place the

Bad News from Pixies Peak.

Mr.. Thomas Winstanley, of Adrian
City, Mich, came down from Plattsmouth
on the Iatan, last Sunday, evening. and
came into cur Office yesterday, to make a
true statement of the condition of things
in the gold mines of Cherry Greek, from
which he had just returned.
He and four others left St. Joseph on
the Sd day Of March, with an ox-team.
and were twenty days on the road
to Denver City. After reaching Denver
City they passed seventeen days in pros
pecting, and their examination extended
over region of country fifty miles along
the base of the mountain. and twenty
miles north and SOUTH The richest
deposit that they could fud in all that
range, yielded not quite four cents per day,
to the hard labor of four men, who fixed a
sluice two hundred and two feet long, and
used quicksilver, and all other appliances
to increase the quantity.
Mr.. Winstanley said he saw about one
hundred and fifty men at work and the
largest yield that he could hear of in the
mines was thirteen cents per day. There
was much destitution In the mines, and
many persons were begging their way
back to the States. Some were found
dead on the road, who were supposed tc
have died from starvation. Mr. Win.
stanley was in California three years. aud
made money there, and he says that he
feels bound to give these statements to the
public that no more persons may be lee
by false hopes to undergo all that he ha;
endured in going to and coming from the
mines.-.&. Joseph Gazette, May l.. 49,,
