IHE WEEKLY STANDARD.-We have unnten-
tionally omitted mention of the Weekly Stand
ard" Democratic paper which has taken the
place of the former daily of the same name. 1t
is certainly asremarkably handsome sheet, and
is edited with much ability. Indeed, while with
regret we are forced to differ with Mr.. Bolts on
the position he has assumed touching the duty
of Democrats to oppose the nominee of the Bal
timore Convention, unless The platform adopted
at Charleston be changed, we at the same time
admit his great ability as writer We have
every confidence that the Weekly Standard will
be supporter of the Baltimore nominee. let
him be whom he may. Under this belief we
wish for the Standard an extended circulation.

The CALIFORNIA DELEGATION AT CHARLESTON
-Simonson, of the Bulletin, writes from Wash
ington on the 9TH inst, as follows:
good deal of comment is made here upon
the course Of the California delegation to
charleston. Austin E.Smith appears to have bull
he'd his colleagues completely into the support
OF his ultra pro-slavery views. The course of
the delegation has disgusted many Caifornians
mere, and is freely denounced as unnecessary,
nhcaiied Tor and deserving of reprehension-
smith is still here TO attend the Baltimore Con-
vention- All the rest of the delegates and one
Drloblesby have left; Patrick left his proxy with
= Charlie" Scott, and Major s. ]. Hensley has
MAJOR Bdwels. Smith has the remainder of
the proxies in his own hands to do with as he
chooses He has declared that the proxies shall
not take their Seats unless they agree to his
programme; and it is probable that Hensley
and Scott will both refuse to 90 into the Con-
vention at all, unless they can go in untram-
meied Major Hensley is a Joe Lane man, but

PETER SMITH TIrLE.-The Supreme Court has
reversed some four decisions heretofore made by
that body, and pronounced worthless the famous
Peter Smith titles to lands in San Francisco
1t is supposed that this decision will take the
homes of several thousand citizens of San
Francisco away from them, and totally ruin,
pecuniarily, many others. The question occurs,
if the Court, after holding for eight years the
validity of the Peter Smith title, now pronounce
1t invalid, may not the Court, a few years hence
when other men are on the bench, reverse the
present decision, and again declare the Peter
Smith titles good and valid? If the Court can
at this time overturn the doctrine of stare decisis
may it not two years hence do the same?

Fourth of July Celebration in shasta.

A number of the young gentlemen of Shasta
have determined to celebrate the eighty-fourth
anniversary of our national birthday, with an
oration, pic mic, &C., at the pavilion on the
grounds of Capt. Chapman. To this end suffi-
cient sum of money to purchase fire works has
been raised by subscription and the works pro-
cured. The pic mic of course will be free. Per-
sons desirous of donating catables can send
them either to the Empire Hotel, or to the pic
mic grounds.
A piano will be taken to the pavilion. The
Shasta Glee Club will also be present. So that
We shall have the privilege of listening to some
delightful music.
The Declaration of Independence will be
read, after which an Grafton will be delivered by
Hon. E. Garter.
After the eating q exercises" are over, various
kinds of games and contests for small prizes will
take place-to be followed by balloon ascen-
sions, fire works, &c. The pavilion and sur
rounding hills will be brilliantly illuminated at
night, when those who love to " tread the misty
mazes of the giddy dance" will be afforded the
opportunity.
Coaches will run from the Empire Hotel and
the church to the grounds, and carry pas
sengers for the small sum of twenty-five cents
We trust that all of our citizens will join in
this celebration. 1t is fitting that we should
commemorative day which gave US liberty with
rejoicing and gladness. And to those who, by
reason of business, cannot be present, we say,
send small contribution in the shape of eat
ables, so that those present "may eat and be
merry"

RAJ The New York Journal Of Commerce
thinks that New York will be the battle ground
fthe Presidential contest, and says that the
Republicans have thrown away their opportuni-
ty to render New York nearly certain for their
ticket, by rejecting, at Chicago, the man who
was strongest in the affections and sympathy OF
the party in New York, and placing nomin-
alton candidate of moderate qualifications
having no hold upon the feelings or regards OF
the people.

FSA- In the Senate, on the 5th of June, the
Kansas bill was taken up. Green, of Missouri
objected to the boundaries, as conflicting with
Indian treaties and proposed an amendment ac-
cordingly. Wade opposed the change of boun-
daries. The bill was postponed by vote of 80
to 81. Pugh and Latham voted with the Re-
publicans. Douglas paired off with Clay
Crittenden and Nicholson absent. So says the
dispatch.

No DoDGNo.-The S. F. Times, Republican

No DoDGNd.-The S. F. Times, Republican,
says, speaking of Lincoln:
He has the credit of being the author of the
doctrine among the Republicans, afterwards
elaborated by Mr. Seward, that the States must,
sooner or later, be all free or all slave. Hence,
if he be nominated, there will be no dodging of
issues. 1t will be an open fight on principle
He is as radical as Seward; and the conflict
will be as irrepressible and unmistakable as
though the ilustrious Senator from New York
was the candidate.
The Shasta courier., 1860-06-30

THE CAMPAIGN HERALD.-A weekly campaign
paper will soon commence being issued from
the San Francisco Herald Office Mr. Barnes,
agent for the e Campaign Herald" is now in the
county, and will call upon as many Democrats
as possible, with view to securing their names
as subscribers. We trust he will meet with
great success. The Herald will be edited by
John Nugent, one of the ablest writers in the
State, aided by assistant editors of known and
marked ability. We persuaded that the
" Campaign Herald" will accomplish much good
in the Democratic cause, and hence trust it may
obtain large circulation in northern California.

ARRrvED-The great comet, supposed to be
the same known as that of Charles the Fifth, has
made its appearance, and may be observed with
the naked eye, between the hours of eight and
nine o'clock in the evening, just above the hor-
ZION in the northwest portion of the heavens
1t appears to be larger than the comet which
was observed in 1858 in the same portion of the
heavens.

No Go.-It would appear, from the Oregon
election returns, notwithstanding Lane and

chance of winning the seat now occupied by
old Joe Lane

Be% On motion of Mr.. Latham, the Senate
adopted provision, which has doubtless been
passed by the House, dividing California into
TWO Indian Districts, with two Superintendent
at salary of $4,000. Says correspondent OF
the Bulletin:
The Indian bill also provides for leases of the
california Indian Reservations to parties who
are to give bonds to take care of them and OF
the Indians thereof for S3, 900 per annum, and
the results OF the labor of the savages. Should
the lessees fail to treat the Indians humanely,
the government retains the power to terminate
the lease at once. Some of the most prominent
citizens of ofCaliforna have indicated readiness
to take these leases on the terms named. 1t is
believed that next year Latham's proposition TO
turn the Indians of California all over to the
state, paying the latter $4,000 per annum for
the care of them, will be accepted by Congress.

CITY Items.

Ey~The Enquirer came out Thursday
morning, under the proprietorship of Messrs.
n. Willard and S. S. Whitehead. AS we
anticipated, it is changed into Douglas or
gan. What Messrs. DENLY, Hall, Rudd
and other Administration Democrats will
say and do now, we can't imagine. But,
" turn about is fair play" First, the Ad-
ministration had the paper for organ
under Mr.. Hall. Then Douglass turn came,
under Mr.. Whittlesey's proprietorship.
Then the ADMINISTRATION got son top
while Mr.. Hull conducted the Office. Now,
after six months scuffle, Douglas gets
astride his antagonist, and soon we may
expect him to commence gouging and
pounding old Buck " to kill"
Verify, the Enquirer passes through many
and rapid changes
