last, our little village has again been honored
by one of CALIFORNIA; favored sons, perhaps !
should have said 10y some more of "them are"
sort of people who arc "prowling about the
country seeking whom they may devOur.'
A few days ago the Hon. (?) VIM. NJ Gwin
! U. s. Se-ator-he who bartered away his
birth-right together with all the offices in the
gift of the President on the Pacific coast, to
obtain a dishonored seat in the United States
Senate,-passed through this place in hot
haste en- route for Downeville. This was on
Saturday last. He had an appointment to
speak at that place on that evening, but fail
ing to reach there in time, he, of course. fail
ed to address the people. He made but "A
short stay here on his way up, and ,f course
had no time to make us speech.

| place en- route for Marysvile and Sacramento
at which latter place he hoped to arrive this
evening, for the purpose of being present at
Broderiek's expose Of his (Gwins) dshonora-
ble bargain and sale of himself and friends
Ever since Latham's defense of himself,
made at Nevada, not a solitary man in all
this section, can be found who doubts that
Gwin sold himself to Broderick, and have
the best authority for stating that some of the
most ultra Administration Democrats resid-
ing at and near this place, will not vote for
any man for State Senator or Representative
who will not give an unequivocal pledge to
oppose Gwin's re election to the United States
Senate. 1t is said, | know not with how
much truth flor | am not in the secrets of
that parity that our brave young candidate
for Senatorial honors, W. F. Anderson. ESQ.
he to whom Gwin wrote the celebrated
letter exposed by Broderick in his speech at
Nevada-has given the desired pledge. If
this be so, Gwin may well exclaim "save me
from my friends" for 1t has heretofore been
conceded that he had not a more devoted
friend in all California than the aforesaid VIM.
F. Anderson. Whether Anderson has given
the pledge or not is noW quite immaterial, for
before the election he will be forced to do so
or suffer an ignominious defeat.
