TAE SHASTA REBELLIoN-Gen. Dosh, ofthe
Shasta Courier ridicales the idea of there be
ing any such state of things in Shasta as has
been represented in the various telegraphic
dispatches to down-oountry papers He says
that the miners do not desire to resist the
Sheriff, but the averment is made in tone
which shows clearly that there is no good
feeling in the affair. 1t is plain that the Sher-
iff 3 action, whether wright or wrong is con
demned by some, very warmly,-and, by
others, as warmly applauded We cannot
judge of the matter, but sincerely hope that
some allowance will be made if the Sheaiff
has been over Jealous in maintaining the law {;
and that, Oh the other hand, the Sheriff and
his supporters, will appreciate all efforts
made in the right direction by those whom
he did not rely upon to sustain him. The
people and their officers cannot come in col.
lison with each other, without disgracing the
State in the eyes of her sister States and dis.
gracing our government in the eyes Of the
civilized world We hope for peace.

DEATH OF P. ]. CoDY.-We are called up
on to record the sudden demise of P. j. Cody,
of this city. He died, after very short i'll
ness, on yesterday morning. Mr. Cody was
an upright man, OF noble and generous i'm
pulses beloved by the young men of the city
for his open and frank carriage. and warm
heart. He was an active member of the
Eureka Engine Co. No l, and never a better
fireman had that Company. Mr.. Cody was,
by trade, machinist, of rare skill and inge-
nuity. He W proud of his calling, and his
fellow craftsmen were proud of him. A gloom,
which will not be easily dispellcd, rests upon
those who were his companions and friends,
and all sympathize deeply with the family
which he has left without protector. The
writer of this knew his good qualities, and
this is no cold record of a passing event Let
those who knew the man and loved him,
"vsit the widow and fatherless in their afllic-
ton" and see that all is well with them.

The Maine DemocracY.

The Democratic members of the Maine
Legislature recently passed resolutions re
affirming the principles contained in the Gin
cinnati Platform, and fully endorsing the
great Democratic doctrine of non Intervention
in States and Territories by Congress, with
local laws; and planted themselves firmly
upon the platform where stands Stephen A.
Douglas, and other great Democratic States
men. We published the resolutions short
time since, and asked how the Lccomps liked
them The anonymous conductor of tie
Express has at last found two mou.dy crumbs
of comfort, and boldly opens his mouth and
speaks He finds that the Bangor Daily I'm
ion and the Belfast journal do not sustain
the Democrat cy of Maine and he gives us long
extracts from those able and influential sheets |!
/ 1t is uudestrood that the blue .nosed chivs
who edit those highly independent and vast
/ ly democratic organs, are I. S. collectors of
customs at their respective abodes. What a
singular coincidence, that old Mr.. Buchanan
and two lite $500 per annum officials should
agree so sweetly and that the latter should
tune their harps to sing the praises Of Mr..
BIS new tangled doctrines.
We cannot refrain from adding to our con-
temporary's qualification, by quoting from
the Passamd9uoddy (Maine) Fire Eater, Ia
staunch and loyal adherent to the fortunes of
]. Buchanan, Rex. an extract from a speech
by Jethro Kalesead, Esq, postmaster at Ca,
lais:
"Taint no use to talk abeout non inter
vention If we Southern fellers don't hang
together meow, we shall be clean overrun
Directly What's the use of our hevin'
constitution if them blue.belied Yankees are
to have u right to take our niggers away, by
prohibiting slavery, as they call it. We are
national men ourselves, and want to hev' our
side win, or else we want the government

to undermine the glorious flag of our Union.
Shall they succeed? Never, sir The age
Of chivalry, say some, has fled. 'Taint so.
There are some Of Us left. Let our knightly

Sir the President is right. JEFF. Davis is
right. VIM. Walker is right Howell Cobb
is right, and so are all our feilers. The ren.
egade Douglas has been endorsed by the
Maine Democracy, but, sir, we must repudi.
ate their dastardly action. When l think Of

breast swells with patriotic emotions and
storm of indignation arises within me when

AB. JOHNSTON FOR MARsHAL.--We wish to
to say to the few who may not know Mr..
Johnstons qualifications for the office OF
Marshal of the city, There may be some) that
he is a thorough business man, well versed
in the art of bookkeeping. and man whose
integrity is well known to all who have ever
dealt with him. He is man Of nerve, and
that he would make a good peace officer is
just as certain as that we ever had one in
Marysyille His experience and tact as an
accountant appear to us to be great re-
concentrations The City Marshal is ex-
oficio City Tax Collector Upon his exer-
tions the collection of the city revenue de
pends, and after it is collected, he is the of
ticer to make up the record of the amount,
and the sources from which it is derived

OUE PRosnEors.-The leaders of the oppo
sition who, but short time since, were so
enthusiastic over their imaginary prospects
at the forthcoming election, now feel that
they were reckoning without their host. AL
ready they foresee the total rout that awaits
them on the 2lst, and as drowning men are
prone to catch at straws, they are eager to
magnify mo'e-hills into mountains, and make
capital out of trihes-all of which only be-
trays their desperation, and daily add $
strength to our tick for few fail to see that
decay is written upon their banners, and that
such heterogeneous party" must soon fall
to pieces, borne down by the weight of its
own corruption. The edict is gone forth !;
and a brilliant triumph awaits the Demo
cratic ticket at the approaching election. if
the Democracy of the city viii but do their
duty. They wW do their duty fully.

They are DiscOnsOIate,

Our showing in yesterdays Democrat of
the aspect Of Marysville Railroad interests. as
connected with the approaching municipal
election, has excited a feeling of deep seated
disgust in the opposition ranks. The Folsom
Railroad men thought to put on airs over
their buncombe resolutions, but every fair
man must acknowledge that such hood
winking game is too brazen and palpable to
win in Marysville. We are anxious to see
how the Folsom organ will get over the mat
ter. No doubt this mornings Express will
be very sweet on the PEOPLES ROAD, and
very savage towards the DEMOCRAT because
Of its exposure of the Lecompton Railroad
trick. But we rest easy. We know that the
people cannot be deceived by the stupid hy-
pocracy of new friends, who want office, but
who know that they cannot win when they
oppose the project dear to every citizen Of
Marysville viz: THE SAN FRANcIsco AND Ma
RYsvTLLE RAILROAD. The insoence of Office
is proverbial, and everybody knows that the
opposition would snap their fingers at us in
derision, if they could once get into power,
and then be asked which road they would
prefer. We want nothing but fair fight
We would not wrong Col. Tompkins for the
world, but we do know, and so does every
business man in the city, that he is hardly the
man to become the champion of Marysville
interests at this late day. The Col. has been
with us a long time,-he has held paying
offices nearly all the time, and we are sorry
that he ever saw fit to do lis such injustice
as to advocate Railroad which must enure
to the benefit the rival city of Sacramento,
and that he should have seen fit, until last
Saturday night, to neglect tie railroad pro
ject which our people almost unanimously
| favor

VINO Is WANDERER ?-Some very sharp
gentleman writes for the Express over the
signature of "Wanderer," and seems to be
very much exercised towards our Assembly
man, Mr. DeLong. 1t is too bad that Char
ley cannot suit the Lecomps of Sacramento.
He ought not to be too much of thorn in
their sides. 1t will make him unpopular
with the Buchananites Is "Wanderero very
much hurt -? Who is he2 Is he hanger on
to the coat tails of the administration Is he
connected with any State office, at salary
Of 5000 a month and is scribbling part of
the work for which he receives the peoples
