FURTHER SERVICE REQUTRED.-The Red Bluff
Beacon intimates that the Kibbe Rangers, lately
dsbanded there will be called upon 20 subdue
the Indians of Humboldt county, who are becom
ing troublesome again. 1t is not quite year
since the Humboldt campaign, under Capt Mes
sec, closed Several hundred Indians were sent
to the Mendocino Reservation now a large pro-
portion of them are again in Humboldt county,
and more fearless and annoying in their depreda-
tions than ever. We can't, for moment, see
what benefit Indian reservations are A cam
paign against hostile Indians is authorized by
the State the Indians are subducd and sent to
the rescrAs+te-5-v|hich they leave at their pleas
ure and return TO their old haunts to be more
troublesome than at first. There is good cause
for the Humboldt people to again call for pro-
lection. Within two months the red devils have
burned one victim at the stake, several murders
have been detected some of the victims cut in
pieces and thrown to the waves of the ocean, to
say nothing of property destroyed and homes
pilaged by them. The Humboldt papers ask
that a final termination be put to these outrages !;
a demand which the State is bound to recognize.
The bloody catalogue of transactions of the In
dians of Humboldt county for two years is fresh
in the minds of all, and as it is subject deeply
interesting to the people of this as well as that
county, we hope an eilectual end will be put TO
their proceedings.

TnE BLESSED WHO DIED on CHRIsTMAs.-Therc
is a beautiful tradition that on Christmas day
there is jubilee in Heaven. st. Peter, weary ut
his watch, puts up his key aud leaves the gates
ajar, and goes in to join the anthem Of salvation
sung by the mighty throng of saints and angels.
A messenger is sent out to stand at the road
leading to probationary publication, and to direct
the traveller to the open gates of Paradise which
he may pass unquestoned, and where the Porter
will put goodly raiment upon him, shoes on his
feet, and in his hand charter of everlasting
life written with the blood of the Lamb. All
through Heaven, millions of leagues beyond the
Throne, golden harps are resounding end from
every arch and battement Celestial trumphers
are waving palms of victory, and shouting to the
slumbering dust of earth" Now is Christ risen
from the dead The Heavens and the Earth are
full of His Glory !'-- Sac Egening Post.

INDIAN REsERyArIoNs--Ihe Washington cor
respondent of the .4ih writes thus in regard to
our Indian Reservations " In my last letter l
alluded to the fact that the Commissioner of In
dian affairs would urge the proprety of abolish
ing the Indian Reservation system in California,
as inseparaby connected with fraud. lie also
recommends doing away with all agencies, aud
dividing the State into two districts over which
a superintendent shall preside and discharge all
the duties. Mcssrs. Gwin and Scott, believe,
also Judge Burch, resist or oppose the latter
proposition, on the ground that they can see no
good it will do. The reply is, Things cannot be
gress for legislative action"

SMILES AND FRowNs.-Keep a smile on your
face, says philosophical editor. Smiles breed
dmples which are far more essential than three
dollar vest chains. It's dangerous to sleep in the
same town with the proprietor of perpetual
frown. Don't walk around, looking as dismal as
sick undertaken, or as if you were going to
your own funeral. Melancholy, two-thirds of the
time, results from hunger or indigestion. Dissect
a suicide and the chances are, you will find his
bread basket empty. If you feel downhearted
avoid hemp and take victuals. A timely "sir
loin" might save many a fellow from au untime-
ly grave. Isn't that so?

PROGRESSIVE MAGsTRATE.-ln recent London
journal is a report of a case where four boys were
brought before police magistrate for bathing in
an exposed place. Instead of lining the offend
ing youths and committing them in default OF
payment, the sensible magistrate directed the
boys to be discharged, remarking that battling
was an admirable and sautary practice that
swimming was an accomplishment which SHOULD
be encouraged that there was something ridic
ulous in the prudery commonly manifested OF
this subject, and that if people were so very
thin-skinned as to be shocked at the spectacle o
persons bathing, they should select another place
and time for their promenades.

THE SECESSION MOVEMENTS S-ReatiVe to
the secession movements, there is very little
new of Importance Oar advceS partake OF
much the same character as heretofore. AS
an indication of the condition of sentiment in
Georgia, "a series of resolutions have been otter
ed in the Legislature which insist. as the con-
diton of the State remaining in the Uuion,u
on the repeal of those laws in the Northern
States, nuIlifying the Fugitive Slave law, and
the enactment of laws by Congress, enabling
Southern men to carry their Slaves into the
Territories. Retaliatory measures against the
North, it seems, have already commenced, and
the FIRST demonstrations made are against the
free negroes who visit Southern ports in the
capacity Of sailors. A dispatch from Savan-
vessel at that port, and three from another at
Fernandina, Fla. and conveyed TO the parts
unknown. The refusal of South Carolina to
assent to the proposition of Virginia and other
Southern States, that Convention should be
held for the purpose Of discussing calmly the
question of secession is severely commented
upon by tie Virginia journals The opinion
seems to be gaining ground that the South
Carolinians are altogether too fast in their
proposal to drag all the Slave States after
them whether they are inclined to go or not
A significant commentary upon the outcry
against the North for refusing to enforce the
provisions of the Fugitive Slave Law. may be
found in the fact that two Deputy Marsbals
arrived in Richmond on Wednesday from New
York having in their custody a runaway from
Kentucky, whom they took measures to de-
liver to his master. A dispatch from Norfolk
states that Gov WISE has offered his services
to Gov. GIsT. of South Carolina, in case they are
not wanted by Virginia. Some people may
consider this an indication that the report re-
lative to his insanity was very near the truth
