Il Newson a Party to the Dishonora

1t is wondered by some if Mr.. NEwsoN of
the Times is deliberate and approving party
to OWENS base oiolation Of confidence, for
which he has just used the columns of his
paper. If that is T. NJ. NEwsoN's idea of the
faith to be kept by an editor, it were well
for all men to beware likewise of what thew
write to him, as well as to OWENS. Perhaps
he too saves up friends unguarded and conf
dental epistles, until he sees a chance to
make money or crafty anger and malice, by
their publication! How is it? -

Cavenaugh "Hesitates and Falters ,,
Over the Acts OF the IS Southern Gen.
tlemen -
Already, at some length, have we alluded
in the Minnesotian, to the late action of the
Democratic Party in the House of Congress
in voting down the bill for the relief of Actual
Settlers on the public domain. Mr.. Crows
amendment, which was the essence of the
bill before the House, was in the following
words:
Be 1t further enacted, That from and after
the passage of this act no public land shall be
exposed to sale by proclamation of the Presi-
dent, unless the same shall have been sur
veyed, and the return of such survey duly
filed in the Land Office for ten years or more
before such sale.
The amendment was adopted by vote of
" to 80, and the bill itself defeated almost
Immediately afterwards by 81 to So, on a very
straight party vote-all the Republicans vo-
ting tor, and almost all the Democrats Except
y against the measure.
The Chicago Press and Tribune in some ex-
tended comments on the matter, thus alludes
to Mr.. Cavenaugh's speech on the occasion:
at was not inappropriate for Mr.. Caya.
naugh, OF Minnesota, to exclailn that his no.
litical friends had done more by defeating that
benificent measure, to create Republican
States in the North and West, than by anv
vote cast within the past two years. Il have

tinued Mr.. Cavanaugh, from my boyhood.

The month Of January furnished capital
specimen Of Minnesota winter weather. The
clear cold days, with the absence Of wind,
and the perfect dryness of the air, made life
out of doors luxury. Our Eastern friends
can form no conception Of the enjoyment and
exhileration produced by such weather.
They could not be convinced that there could
be any pleasure in breathing an atmosphere

new banking bill was to alter the aohOle basis
or security for the redemption Of the bank
notes which might be issued: allowing in fact,
the Railroad State Bonds to be deposited at
what might be called their "currsnt calue"
ANYWHERE, phrase which the Railroad folks
have since interpreted to mean their current
value" at which they were received by the
contractors for the grading!
Another effect of this new bill was, to Ex-
cLUDE all other State Stocks besides our own,
except those which might for whole six
months have sold at par or premium in
New York: which provision operated practi-
cally to exclude all State Stocks, other than
our own, save two or three, and these no
banker would be liLely to pay a premium for
when our Railroad State Bondscould be made
a Banking Basis on so much more favorable
terms: Indeed, no one could start Bank,
with any hope of fairly competing with the
Railroad bankers, who in truth would have a
Currency Monopoly, though at the expense,
eventually, of the business men and commu-
nifty generally
This new bill thus altering the Basis of our
Banking System, was in dull time, transmit
ted from the Senate into the House of Repre-
sentatives, and there struggle commenced
for its passage. 1t was violently opposed,
even by some of the Railroad men, among
whom we may favorably mention DR.. Keith
Of Minneapolis. The bill was finally amend
ed in the House "A vote of Yeas SO to Nays
~ striking out Sec. 1, which was the portion
that made the exclusive Railroad Banking
Basis, and formed the whole Eist of the bill.
The bill with its horns thus cropped vent
back into the Senate again. The State Sem
ate disagreed to the House amendment, and
appointed Committee of Conference with

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY OF A STAGE.
We learn from John. Stanton, the
Sacramento driver, that an attempt
to rob the stage from Forest Hill to
Michigan Bluffs was made on Tues
day morning. Officers Gay and O'Neil
received information that the stage
was to be stopped by robbers, and in
formed the passengers of the fact,
and told them to either 60 or remain,
All chose not to venture but one.
who remarked he would go along and
see the sport. The officers seated
themselves on the back seat inside
armed with double barrel shot guns
and the stage proceeded. At the
place where the attack would be
made, the officers were prepared for
what might follow, and kept a good
look out. Presently fur men came
out of the bushes, one took hold of
the leaders, another the wheel horses,
and third, presenting a pistol de-
manded the specie box to be passed
down from the drivers seat. The
driver replied, that the box was too
heavy. At this instant the officers
discharged their shot guns. killing one
of the robbers instantly and danger
ously wounding the second. whom
they secured. The other two took
to their heels. One was seen to
jump in the air on the discharge of
another shot, and supposed to have
been wounded but effected his escape
with the fourth robber.
There was a. large amount of dust
aboard in the charge of Wells, Fargo
& Co.
The robber killed had his face
BACKED, but is said to be late vic
tim of the cIemency of Gov. Weller.
The Sacramento Union of the 9th
gives the names of the officers a;
Daniel G. Gay and Charles P. O'Neil
of Sacramento. The Union account
has it that two robbers were killed
and another supposed to be mortally
wounded. The.same account, which
was given by the only passen ger, Mr.
NJ. ]. Fulton. says the attempt was
made three quarters of mile from
Todd's Valley and little after three
o'clock in the morning.

Fix THE STREET. Why NOT p
Pine street between Spring and the
bridge, has always been horrible
passage during the rainy season. The
water is allowed to run in the middle
of the street, which soon gullies it out
and renders i almost impassable.-
Each spring the channel is filled up
at considerable expense, again to be
allowed to wash out on the return of
the rains. There is no side walk for
foot passengers along that miserable
section Of street. The question may
be pertinently asked, what induce
.ment is there for those of our citizens
living across Deer Creek to pay city
taxes, &C., and wade into town in the
mud. AS one of those unfortunate
individuals, we make the proposition
to keep the street in complete repair,
sidewalk it, and defend our own
property. asking no favors of the city
ordinances and police, if the city will
relieve us from further taxation for
-.
city parposes,-a tax from which we
have received and do not expect to
receive a dollars worth of benefit. If
this proposition be not accepted we
ask those having the care of streets
to fix the one complained Of.
