Peace Resolutions.


We publish this morning series Of
peace resolutions introduced into the
Connecticut Legislature. These resolu.
lions are undoubtedly prompted by the
best Of motives, but whether under OK
isting circumstances, they can be con-
sidored of any practical benefit, is a
matter for the future to solve. We are
in favor Of peace all the time, but it
would be well for those who have not
hesitatcd to destroy the Union, to bring
forward something of the kind, if not
before, at least in conjunction with
those who have always been in favor Of
it. We hope for peace instead Of war,
but We should have more hopes Of it, il
there were any show that the PROPOSE
tious would DO entertained in anti-peace
quarters.

son, Of Missouri, that he promised to
take his State tout of the Union, or take
her to hell" but the appearances just
now seem to indicate that his declara-

Arkansas himself, we believe he has left
Missouri behind and when he takes
one step further to tho region spoken of,
it is extremely doubtful if she follows

Mr.. Granger, q painter in this place,
called at the store Of Day Il Bros to
talk about . debt which be owed them,
and which, We learn, they had secured
by an attachment, in anticipation Of
his leaving town. Granger was excited
by liquor and very soon used most Of
fensive and aggravating language, which
the oldest Mr.. Day bore with remarka-
BILE forbearance. On repetition of the
language, the second brother struck G.
a reeling blow. Granger returned to
the attack, and as he was firing = pep.

blow, which apparently averted his aim.
The charge, unfortunately, hit Mr.. ST.

A PATRIOTIC CARpEsTER.-A citizen of
Grass Valley, who is a northern man, but
who favors secession, having occasion to
make some repairs about his house, called in
a carpenter, who is notoriously strong on
the Union, to have the job done. The car
penter worked half day, tearing out sever
al partitions, when they got to talking about
the state of the country. The sentiments
expressed by the secessionist astonished the
carpenter, who found it strange that north
ern man should entertain such opinions, and
he asked him if he really meant what he
said. On being answered in the affirmative,
he gathered his tools and departed, saying
he could stand southern secessionist, but
would have nothing to do with nJfshetn'
one.-Transcript.

BLACK LIST.

Every few days we hear of a loss sustain
ed by the removal or sudden disappearance OF
some subscriber in arrears from five to ten dol
lars to this paper. We have borne this state OF
things uncomplainingly until the tax is found to
be nearly equal to the expense of publication.
We can stand it no longer. If there are those
who subscribe for papers with the intention OF
never paying for them, the public should know
who they are; and in order to afford them that
information, we are preparing list of those
who, having been first duly notified of their de-
linquency, have failed to respond to the just de-
mand made upon them, which we shall publish,
that others may take warning of their practice.
We commence by stating that the "Healds-
burgh University has swindled this office out OF
fifteen dollars, for advertising done in 1859.
QTPostmasters will observe, that when they
fail to give notice of the failure of subscriber
to call for his paper-as the law of Congress re-
ouires-we shall hold them legally responsible
for the amount of the claim. We have ten
dollar charge of this kind against the postmaster

MILITARY COMPANY. The young men of
North San Juan are raising a volunteer mil
itary company. The list of those who have
already joined, contains between forty-fye
and fifty names. Certain conditions have
to be complied WITH which are set forth in
the 18th section of the Military Act passed
by the last Legislature, which reads as fol-
lows
Whenever a sufficient number Of persons,
by the provisions of this Act, citizens of any
county of this State, subject to military duty,
shall subscribe to call for the organization
of volunteer company, the County Judge
of said county, upon due application of the
persons who have subscribed as above, shall
appoint some suitable person resident of the
county to open book, in which be shall
enter the names of the persons SO volun-
teering, and shall fix time and place of
meeting for the purpose of organization, by
giving ten days notice thereof by publi-
cation in some newspaper, or by posting
notices in at least three public places in the
county.
Measures have been taken to conform to
the above requirements, after which the
organization will be completed. N. c. Miller,
ESQ.,, late Assemblyman from this portion of
Nevada county, will probably be chosen
captain of the company.

The POle.Raising.

AS was anticipated, large number of people
from the surrounding neighborhoods were drawn
together on Thursday to witness the raising of
the splendid flagstaff which had been in course
of preparation for couple of weeks past. All
the arrangements for the event were completed
between one and two o'clock, when the ropes
were taken hold of by the crowd, and the ffiain
trunk of the pole was hoisted up with an ease
and facility which surprised every one. There
was not the slightest accident to mar or unne-
cessarily delay the proceedings.
Between six and seven o'clock, after the three
separate joints of the pole had been run up and
spliced, and the halliards adjusted, the flag was
dropped amid the cannon's roar, and the loud
and prolonged shouts of the spectators. stiff
breeze from the southwest rustled an instant in
its folds and then spread them gracefully out
against the sky, disclosing the stars and stripes
in all their unsullied glory.
A procession was now formed, under the mar
shalship of Capt. N. C. Miller, and marched,
four deep, to the music of fife and drum, through
several principal streets, and back to the vicinity
of the flagstaff, where an informal meeting was
organised, and was most eloquently addressed
by Judge Niles Searls, of Nevada, who had been
especially invited for that purpose. His words
were the language of thrilling patriotism, which
pledged the speaker to his country and its flag
against all foes, and particularly in the present
fratracidal contest till the supremacy of the laws
was maintained and rebellion crushed out. He
was frequently interrupted by loud and general
outbursts of applause.
Judge o. P. Stidger succeeded, in response to
the demands of the multitude, and paid high
and deserved compliment to the speech of Judge
Sears, that received the full Endorsement of every
one present. Mr. A. L. Greeley also addressed
the meeting briefly but spiritidly and patriotcal-
ly, after which the crowd, with shouts and cheers,
dispersed. Thus, from the beginning of the
days proceedings to the ending, everything had
been pleasant, successful and harmonious.
The pole is lS5 feet high, and the bunting flag
which streams from its top, % by AZ feet-the
longest pole, we believe, and the largest flag yet
erected at any mountain town in the State. To
Messrs. Charles Schardin and T. G. Smith be-
longs the chief honor of the event. The pole
stands directly in the center of the Main street
fronting Mr.. Schardins saloon, and the flag can
be seen at almost every prominent point from
five to ten miles distant.

THE CALIFORNIA REGIMENT-Mr. II. A.
Green, acting as recruiting officer for the Lip
pitt Regiment, which it is proposed to enlist in
California and offer to the General Government,
was in town on Wednesday and Thursday, e,.
route for Nevada. He expresses desire to
raise company in Nevada county, and has left
a muster-roll in the hands of Capt. N C. Miller,
persons as may wish to join, and when squad
has been formed, devote an hour or two on ap-
pointed evenings to drilling them. 1t is under
stood that prominent gentleman of wealth at
San Francisco has headed subscription list
with ten thousand dollars, to assist in arming
and equipping the Regiment, which, when
formed, viii proceed to the seat of war, whether
there is demand for their services or not. If a
sufficient number of names to form company
are not procured in Nevada county, those who
do sign will be apportioned among other COM
panies.
The following is the form of muster-roll which
the volunteer is required to subscribe:
FIRST REGIMENT CALIFORNIA VOLUNTEERS,
Organizing ander the folloscing Officers:
Francis j. LIPPITT, Colonel;
JAMES N. OLNEY, Lieut.. COL.
JAMES F. CURTIS, Major.
We, the undersigned, hereby enroll ourselves
in Company III, of the above named Regiment,
to be organized under the laws of the State of
California, and the services of said Regiment to
be rendered to the United States Government.
The terms of enlistment shall be in accord
ance with the requirements for volunteer troops
at the time we are mustered into the service of
the United States; it being understood that six
months shall be the shortest period OF enlist
ment.

MINING EssAYs.-Our miners-those who
have been engaged for a number of years in the
hydraulic process-ought certainly by this time
to have gained knowledge which, if published
to the world would aid others in facilitating
their labors, and perhaps lead to still greater
discoveries in that peculiar branch of gold wash
ing. For instance, the use and results of the
blast the kind of ground where it is applied with
the best effect; the economy it in labor !;
the dangers attending it, etc. Then, the best
modes of tunneling; what kind of drill could be
used to best advantage; the indications of
mephitic air, and the average amount of labor
performed in given time by certain modes of
working. Next, the modes adopted with great
est success for saving gold. These and many
other subjects, which make up the daily expert
ence of miners life, would all be interesting,
if treated upon through the columns of the
press; and we therefore invite our mining friends
to give the public the benefit of their observations
in the manner proposed. Mutual advantages
would be the result.

CACTUS BURcH.-This gentleman has recov
cred from his fright, occasioned by the publica-
ton of his celebrated Pacific Republic letter,
and the furiously indignant reception given to it
all over the State. Under certain contingencies
he still favors the Cesarean-M -McDuff operation of
carving California from the womb of the Union
into a distinct nation. An extract from speech
which he made couple of weeks ago at Weav-
erville, is thus reported by the Trinity Journal
''He reviewed his Congressional career; de-
Tended his famous Cactus letter, and was very
denunciatory of the press of this State for the
misconstructions which had been placed upon it.
He said the letter was private one, addressed
to a friend, not even limiting at secession; that
in that letter he expressed his warm attachment
to the Union; yet the California papers had
called him secessionist, favorer of Pacific
Republic, etc. Before the conclusion of the
speech, he clearly and distinctly announced him.
