A Surveyors Card.

Mr.. Editor:-- You will please change the Or
der of my notice as Surveyor. in your paper, and
leave out the Deputy. l observed in the Demo
cratic Signal Of the last issue. over the sigma
ture of S. G, Elliott, notice that have no con-
nccton whatever with the Office of County Sur
veyor, either rs deputy or otherwise. That con.
slider true ut this time. and it was only negli-
gence on my part entirely, and | exceedingly
regret that it was not taken from my advertise
ment. But if he. Elliott, had ever had learned
the first principle Of IL gentleman, he would have
called my attention to it in different way, rs we
were frequently together But n low minded
puppy would choose to make noise in news
paper. When be came to Auburn and discovered
that WAS doing what little rvcyng there WAS
to do. he said to Inc that the business would not
pay him. .and he made the proposition himself to
give ME the business, and thanked him; and he
left document-a thing purporting to be de-
putyship--in the county clerks Office for me.
The thing was very niggardly gottn up. |, how
ever. some months aftcrward, qualified under the
appointment. and l think I used the deputy to
my name on one or two plats of survey only; but
since then have carelessly neglected to have the
order of my notice changed, not regarding il as a
matter of any consequence any way. | have
lived long while in the world, and OF course |
have had my ups and down in life. but never have
been under the necessity OF appearing in news
paper in this way before; and | calculate for this
t. " nd up my newspaper controversies. And |
w.s. it distinctly understood that l hold myself
strictly and personally responsible for every
remark which have made on the present occa-
sion. And | would merely say in conclusion.
that if the good people Of Placer county should
ascertain at any future time that they have made
a mistake-as the best and most intelligent peo-
pie in the world are liable to do-and have elect
ed a jackass. who has no qualification to do their
surveying, if they will call on me will attend to
it as | have heretofore done since i S52 If not.
honors are easy, as care nothing abortit.

@Some California presses and polil-
clans are disposed to quarrel with that por-
ton Of the Presidents Message which denies
the power of the General Government to
coerce any State that may secede from the
Union. These hypercritie should lay the
blame where it belongs-upon the Constitu-
ton, not the President. If the Constitution
does not grant such power, the President
surely is not to blame for stating his convic.
ton TO that effect.

THE DIFFERENcE.-We stated two weeks
ago that there was difference between the
County Auditors and Treasurer's books of
some thousands OF dollars, as to the amount
of outstanding scrip. On the 81 of Decem
Der BY the Auditors books the amount was
$22,62O Ia, by the Treasurers $Sl l,072 H.,
a difference of IS 452 O3. At the same
time there were over $4,000 in the Treasu-
ry. This would leave, according to Treasu
rer's books, outstanding scrip to an amount
exceeding $4,000, I" which may be an
amount Of unaccepte'l scrip and other scrip
accepted to increase the debt to between
twenty four and twenty-five thousand dol
lars.
It would be well for the Board of Super
visors to institute an examination of the
books Of the county to ascertain wherein the
difference in the books have occurred.
