Down on COLONEL Whitesides.

The Express admits INTO its columns an ar
ticle severely denunciatory ofCol Whitesides.
This, too, after solemnly declaring, some time
ago that no personal denunciation of eandi-
dates before the Lecompton State Convention
should be allowed in that paper He is &C
cused of resorting to 20 miserable trick" to
obtain the endorsement which he received.
the other day, at the hands Of the LecOmpton
County Convention. He is also virtually &C
eusrd Of direct Justification in order to de-
ceive those who might have defeated his
efforts had he not told them that he was max
ing no efforts of the kind attributed to him.
Now. why so much bitterness against Col
Whitesides? Has not the Colonel rs good a
right to be candidate for Congress from Yuba
county rs Lloyd Magruder to be candidate
for State Printer? Upon what meat hath
this Cesar fed that he is grown 50 arrogant
as to suppose that no other man but himself
has right to be conspicuous in the ranks Of
his party in this county? Has not Colonel
Whitesides served Lecomptonism as long and
as faithfully as he? Has he not also served
it as ably? Why then should he be expected
to give way and abandon all his aspirations
for honor and distinction. simply that Lloyd
Magrudcr may proceed, uninterruptedly and
in the most approved manner, to feather his
nest
This abuse Of Whitesides will have any
thing but a good effect for Magruder in the
Lecompton State Convention. The Colonel
is favorably known to the Lecompton party
all over the State. Personally, he is well
liked by both political parties for his many
amable qualities as IA gentleman. He also
won numerous friends while Speaker of the
lower House of the California Legislature
aud they will remember him for his justice,
suayty and impartiality in the discharge of
his duties, in that capacity. His name, too.
has been long time before the country as
that of candidate for Congress from the
Northern District of California; his chances
have been pronounced good and it can hard
ly be expected that he would surrender every
vantage ground that he has gained in the
past and every prospect that he has for the
future, simply that Lloyd Magruder may fat
ten upon the proceeds of "a lucrative ) tate
office.
As between Colonel Whitosides and Judge
Magruder we have no particular choice. Nei
ther Of them have any sympathies in common
with US, in a political point of view, and it is
immaterial to us which one succeeds before
the Convention. but we cannot refrain from
condemning injustice, wherever we see it,
Colonel Whitesides no doubt labored for the
endorsement which he received, but all who
know him personally will believe that he la.
bored honestly and in manner not unbe-
coming high-minded gentleman.

UrsRr-A dangerous upset took place, yes
terday afternoon. At about o'clock, on the
Feather River Bridge, at Yuba City One of
he California Company's stages was coming
in loaded with p ssengers and baggage. ten
persons being inside and five on top, when
one of the wheels ran on a dividing beam in
t sc bridge, hosting the stage on one side six
feet high and upsetting it in II trice. The
passengers clung to the stage or several of
them would have been thrown from the
bridge into the river below. Strange to say. |
not soul was injured in the least. The
stage was damaged to the extent only of n |
broken pole. The passengers and baggage |
were conveyed into town by another vehicle.
The cause of the accident was this The |
right passage of the bridge was under repair,
and the extreme end of it was ohstructed, So
as to give evidence that it was not to be
driven over. The driver did not see the OBJ |
struction, on account of it, distance at the |
other end of the bridge. and started through /
the passage as usual. Directly, however, he |
he saw his mistake, vnd wheeled his horses |
suddenly, in order to turn into the left pas
sage. One of the wheel horses did not obey
the rein, and he gave the animal a cut with
his whip. This startled the lead horses
which sprang forward with such rapidity us
to run the wheels of the right side of the
coach high up on the dividing beam above
alluded to- and an upset was the inevitable
consequence. No blame can be attached to
