tB The Express of yesterday says, in eff
feet, that Congress has no right even to in
quire whether a Constitution, claiming to
have been framed by the people of Terri
tory, is their act and deed or not but must
take it for what it pretends to be on its face,
and ask no questions How ridiculous! No
matter how apparent it is that there has been
fraud, no matter how manifest that self-styled
delegates have assumed powers not granted
by the people, no matter how elamorous the
people themselves may be against the Con
stituton. no matter if they meet at the polls
and vote it down, it must all go for nothing
these things, but must proceed to fasten the
instrument upon the necks Of free.born citi-
zens! Well, we would like to know for what
purpose the Constitution of the United States
invests Congress with the power to admit
new States, if Congress is nothing more than
an instrument for recording the acts of ire
! sponsble conventions. tits our humble opin.
! ion that Congress is bound to exercise a sound
discretion in all cases that come before it in
voying the rights of American citizens, and
to see that no wrong or outrage is committed.
When the people ofa Territory come to frame
their constitution, Congress is bound to see
that the will of the majority is respected, at
least to so far sec to it, as to refuse to recog-
nize any Constitution as binding upon them
which they themselves protest against and re-
pudiate. This is plain common sense--plain
justice-plain Democratic principle, and any
man who refuses to subscribe to this doctrine
is unsafe to be trusted with any part or lot
in the administration of our Government
The Express misrepresents the Douglas De-
mocracy when it says that Douglas Demo-
Gratis are in favor of having Congress prescribe
to the people what kind of Constitution they
ought to have. The Douglas Democracy CON
tend for no such nonsense They simply say
this, that Congress shall not sit IN like a
great goose and declare that a Constitution
is the act and deed of the people. when II

Bogus Committee.

The squad of Boilers, who constitute the
Lecompton City Committee, met it seems on
Monday night, and resolved that they would
have their election for Delegates to a Bogus
City Convention on Saturday, the 26th inst.
that the Delegates should number twentv-
eight,-tive for the First Ward. eight for the
Second, seven for the Third and eight for the
Fourth, The following individuals were an
pointed to act as Judges and Clerks for the
Bogus concern:
First Ward-J. F. Linthicum and b. F. Malott.
To be held at D'Artenay's Saloon, corner of First
and streets.
Second Ward-w C. Belcher and w. A. Gil
man. To be held at the Marysville Hotel corner
of Second and streets, formerly known as the
planters House"
Third Ward Merritt and Wm. T. Oneale
To be held at the fremont Saloon, corner of Se-
cond street and Maiden Lane.
Fourth Ward-Josah Bowen and Dr. Teegar-
den. To be held at the Town Talk Saloon, cor
ner Of Second and c streets.
So, it seems that this Committee after a
desperate struggle to get itself constituted
owing to scarcity of material, have conclu.
ded that they will be able to scare up TWEEN
ty eight delegates to City Convention
Whether they can or not we can't say, but
we hope they will not bore Douglas men as
much to become Delegates as they bored
them TO become members Of the Committee

port of The terrific onslaught which he made
upon the Illinois appointments OF the Admin
istration will be found in another colEmn, TO
gether with the difficulty TO which it gave
rise. 1t will be seen that, while "the Doug
las" was beset on every hand by his Senate
rial Lecompton enemies, he exclaimed in the
fervor of his scathing philippe, ~ am as
much the uncon9uered rebel GS erer I" That is
to say, the same unconqHered rsbet against the
one-man power ofthe President, which other
men bend to-the same unconqNered rebel
against the new government Tor thS Demo
cratic party which the Administration of
James Buchanan would establish-the same
unconguered rebel against the doctrine at
tempted to be fastened upon the Democratic
party, that the will of the majority is to be
trampled under foot for the barren benefit of
expediency, and that the great principles Of
Democracy are to be warped to the views
and caprices of chance President of the
United States-the same unconquered rebel
against the monarchial DEGREES of decapita-
ton and prescription proclaimed from the
Presidential Chair and its supporters against
men who dare to stand by principle and say
in the face of power, THUS DO l THINK, AND
SUCH ARE MY OPINIONS
Prouder and prouler, every day, of the
great champion of the people should the De
mocracy of this Union be. He has shown
himself man in every step Of his progress
and on every battlefield. And if he rolled a
flood of fire through the Senate, somewhat
too scorching for the proximity of his enc
mes, in his denuuciation of the Illinois sp-
pointmcnts, let it be remembered that he had
a debt of gratitude to pay to an Administra-
ton which had heaped upon his head every
species Of attempted vengeance and endeav-
ored to bury him with all his hopes in po-
litical grave from which no trump Of man or
angel should rcsurrect him. 1t was his time
for vengeance and he used it.

A case of assault and battery was tried,

We are informed that many such cases as
this happen. where the accused compounds
with the accuser, no witnesses appear, and
the prisoner is dismissed without trial. 1t
more frequently happens, however in cases
of assault and battery.

The BALL.-The Pavilion was thronged
last evening with brilliant and gay assem-
blage of manly grace and feminine beauty
The spacious floor was covered with happy
couples, bounding to the joyous music of the
dance, and the hours seemed winged with
happiness. The hall was beautifully decora-
ted with appropriate scenery and emblems
for the occasion, most tastefully arranged by
some discriminating if not experienced hand
The supper was magnificent affair gotten
up under the skillfnl supervision of Andy
Hepburn, of the Club House, who knows how
to minister to the appetite in the most ap-
proved style. The dancing was prolonged
till very late hour, and the ball closed
leaving every gay participant pleased and
delighted. We are happy to record SO thor.
ough success in this effort of our worthy
firemen to get up a pleasant entertainment
for the public, and, at the same time, to con
tribute to the completion and adornment of
their cemetery, which is destined to be a
most beautiful spot

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR-Tuesday morning Of

was found lying dead in a pool of his own
blood, in his fruit store in Colusi A bullet
shot had passed through his breast, and had
evidently killed him Immediately There
was no sign Of any attempt at robbery. and
the probability is that some person murdered
him for revenge, or to prevent his testimony
in case likely to arise wherein some crime
was involved, or to get possession of proper

or for any of a thousand and one reasons that
might be imagined. The old man was well

The Chinese.

"Sluice Box" writing to the Sacramento
Bee, from Linnvlle, in Shasta county, says:
BY reference to the Shasta Courier, of the
29th January, you will see call for county
convention of miners to take into consdera-
tion measures for the expulsion of the Chinese
from among us. This is fast becoming an
important question for legi lative delbera-
ton, and cannot long be STAYED off
The miners throughout the Chinese infict-
ed districts are becoming untitled on the sub
ject, and will make hostility to the latter a
sine qua non with all those who seek polti.
cal preferment at their hands,
| am heart and hand in the movement, vet
| desire to see it accomplished through legit
mate means-if possible but accomplished,
any how. grant that the problem is diff
cult one, and not easy of solution, still think
that proximate result may be attained
The Chinese are amongst us, and by the
Constitution of the United States, and its trea
ty stipulations, legitimately So The State
Legislature, in its sovereign capacity, saw fit
to enact certain municipal laws in regard TO
them. 1t deprived them of the right of be.
coming citizens. or of giving oath in cases
where white men were concerned-at the
same time it licenses them to work the mines
of California upon equal terms with American
born citizens. Now, it appears to me an
anomaly in legislation, to inhibit political
and civil rights to certain class, while it
permits them, for a consideration, to social
and fraternal equality with the most numer-
GUS and laborious portion of our own citizens
The right to tax Chinese miners implies the
right to prohibit them: and this is what is
demanded, and will be insisted upon. In
early days, when two, three, and four dollar
digglngs were disregarded by the Americans,
their presence caused no great inconvenience,
but as mining is fast becoming not matter
of fortune getting, but one of bread and but
ter, the question naturally suggests itself.
whether we shall appropriate it to the use of
ourselves and those dependent upon us, or
yield it, without a struggle, to those pig

appearance, old continents have relapsed into

From the frozen regions Of the North to the

To hear one eternal round Of complaint and

but when peoples aggregate sentiments
