CALIFORNIA NEWS.

News from California confirms the report
OF the immense richness Of the silver region
OF Carson VALLEY. Many men who have
been working in California for years, and no
richer for it, now find themselves a, the top
Of the hill! and immensely wealthy. Many
will make fortunes in those mines, 9TH
ers may toll for years and make nothing
All advices warn men from going unless
they are plentifully supplied with capital in
order to work the mines by machinery
And we would advise all who have
capital, to come to Minnesota, buy farm,
live on and cultivate it, and in the end they
will find themselves 'icher, happier, and bet
ter, than if they venture their all, perhaps
to win, perhaps to lose, in the mines Of the
eastern slope.

TIE HOMESTEAD BILL.

The Homestead Bill, which passed til,
HOUSE. is still being daily discussed in tn,
Senate. 1t seems likely, from the spiri
manifested, and the test.votes taken, that j
wall pass in some shape or other. Mr.
Brown, Of Mississippi, proposed an amend
meat embodying the following propositions
FIRST, The pre-empor shall not sell, ali
snsts or dispose Of his or her right for ,
consideration !; and if he or she voluntaril,
abandoas one presumption, and claims an
other, no right shall be acquired by such
claim, until the claimant shall first have
testified, under oath, before the register O.
the land office, when the claim is preferred
that he or she has voluntarily abandoned
bis or her original pre- emption, and that
no confederation, reward or payment Of any
kind has been received or is expected, di
recely or indirectly, as an inducement 70,
such abandonment; and any person VIII.
shall testify falsely in such case, shall, b
deemed guilty Of perjury.
Second. Any person claiming and hold
ing the right Of pre- emption to lands unde,
this act, may be required by the State with
IN which the same lies to pay takes thereon
in the same manner and to the same extern
- 1t he or she owned the land IN fee sim
pie u; and in case such lands are sold fo
taxes, the purchaser shall acquire the RICH
Of presumption only.
Third. Absence Of the pre-emptor ane
hls family for six consecutive months shall
b deemed an abandonment and the lane
shall, in such case, revert to the United
States, and he subject to the same disposi
ton - other public lands.
We are decidedly in favor Of that propo
sit;on IN regard to taxes, As it would be th,
greatest injustice to make men who hav'
paid for their land, endure the whole bur
don Of the taxation Of tho State for fiv
ysar*, while those who receive their land

am very busy preparing for war against
the Navajoe Indians, who have been very
troublesome this winter. Last week we had
fight with them at Fort Craig, on the Rio
Grande, which resulted in killing and wound

them booty they had stolen from the
ranches on the river, viz 5000 sheep, q
number of cattle, horses, &c. This ha.
been the most successful coup we have We,

is to march to Mexico crush the Miramon
faction, and place the ..Jaurez Government

to assimilate the Mexican republic as near.
