Ocerland Mail.-It is found on trial
that the overland mail brings letters and
information sooner and with quite as
much regularly as the steamships
This fact is an important one and should
not be overlook ed by those communica-

The overland stage line will aeceler-

the continent with a hardy and in
dustrious population, introducing into
those wilderness regions between the
Missouri River and the eastern bord.
er Of our state the arts and bless
ings of civilized life, while the steam
ship line will add nothing to the prog
ress of any considerable portion of the
American Union. These reasons, over
and above cheaper postage, better time
and regularity, which are to be obtained
on the overland routes, are strong in
dueements to patronize the land in pref
erence to the ocean mail. Give the
overland mail fair show, anyhow.

Merro.-The fortunes of war, or the
misfortunes of Mexico, have bestowed
brief authority upon another ephemeral
popinj Jay in that distracted country -
Miramon, is the name Of the pompous
"God and Liberty" man to whom the
Mexicans at this time doff their sombreros
and cry yica. Without stability, intelli-
gence, courage or industry, the Mexican
race is fit for no government but that of a.
despotism Of the strongest and most at
solute kind. They are the tools Of vain,
military upstarts who have wontheirrank
by their cowardice rather than bravery.
When the ill-founded aspirations of
these are pummelled out of them by the
strong arm of foreign power, Mexico
may enjoy quiet and not till then.

mits atrocities wherever he goes. In

Signs Of an OppOsitios,-A strong
feeling, growing stiA stronger, prevails
in many of the Atlantic States against
the party in power. In Virginia it is
admitted that Mr.. Goggin, the opposi-
ton candidate for Governor, will hug
Mr.. Letcher close in the contest now go
ing on. There are thousands of as true
hearts as ever veat in Whig or Ameri-
can bosoms in that honored State, who
are thoroughly aroused and enlisted in
the struggle, and will never lay down
their arms till victory is won. Not less
active and enthusiastic are the conserva-
tive men of Kentusky and Tennessee.
In the former gallant old State the
men who were once marshalied by a
Clay, are in action and ready for the
fight, while in the latter, that tried, old,
Whig veteran, John Bell, is ready to
precipitate solid column of Union-lov-
ing men upon the enemy In North
Carolina the old line Wings are shak-
ing the dew drops from their robes and
preparing FOR determined war. New
York has been thrilled with the clarion
voice.of that old Whig. Governor Hunt,
and powerful force will be mustered
in that State in case of emergency.
Connecticut has a straight out Wing
State ticket in the field. Alabama is
running opposition candidate, for Con
gress.
Among the distinguished statesmen
of the nation, who have taken part in
the movement, OF will sooner or later
give aid and comfort to the opposition
cause, we may mention John Bell, John
J. Crittenden, Edward Bates, Edward
Everett. John M. Bolts, Alexander III.
II. Stewart, Kenneth Raynor. Chas. NJ.
Conrad, Sam Houston, Millard Fillmore,
Washington Hunt, Robert G. Winthrop,
Neil S. Brown, and Tom Corwin. These
statesmen may be depended on when
the time shall arrive to gather together
the mighty army of conservatives to op-
pose a corrupt and imbecile administra-
ton.

SILENCE, RECoRD,-A writer in the
Butte Record ought to be challenged, or
compelled to make an explanation. he
is personal vely-hear him:
I recollect the last winter, while
standing at the bar of the Assembly
Chamber, was directed to notice the
countenanees and broadeloth of several
influential members from county lying
to the southeast of your own. "Those
individuals" said my Informant a
strong Administration man-"those indi-
viduals were sent from our county, on
purely sympathetic grounds. In the
first place we all sympathized with our
selves, in desiring to rid ourselves of
their presence, and in the second place,
a number of our tradesmen and hotel
keepers, fattered themselves with the
idea that they could, in the course Of
a session, sell themselves for enough to
liquidate their outstanding accounts.
One of them was not really citizen of
our county-he only let his wife and
baggage take trip through our mines a
few days before the nominating eonven-
ton assembled"
Now yeou jest pint some other way,
will yeou Mr.. Record, and blaze away
as much as yer mind ter.

rB. Gratz Brown. the able Editor
of the Missouri Democrat has retired
In his valedictory he utters the following
entiments and prediction.
The Missouri Democrat has been the
pioneer of the cause of divine Freedom
in the State of Missouri. and to that cause
my heart is welded with devotion that
death alone can annuL Could anything
reconcile me to this step it would be the
victory that has just been achieved here
in St. Louis, which, whilst it will make
permanent the triumph of the Right in
the chiefci of the West also necessit-
ates its eventual conquest Of the whole
domain that spreads out to the Pacific.
Missouri will soon be a Free State, and
Missouri holds-th key to the Central
Empire of the continent. The destiny is
therefore conclusively foreshadowed that
the progression of Free Labor will estab :
lish early claim to the domination of this
Republic.
