THE HORACE SMITH CAsE.-It will be re-
membered that the Legislature passed law,
recently, over the veto of the Governor, chang
ing the place of trial of Horace Smith, charged
with the killing Of Newell, from San Francis
co to Ell Dorado county. The matter came up,
under this law, on Tuesday last, before Judge
Campbell, of the Twelfth District Court Of
San Francisco, who delivered lengthy opni-
on denying this motion for change Of venue
He decided upon constitutional ground and
CLAIMS that the power of the Judiciary and
those of the Legislature are separate and dis
tinct He urges that encroachments have
been made by the one power on the premises
of the other, but that it is the duty of those in
power to prevent, as far as possible, such in
Engagements. lie therefore decides that the
Legislature have no right to interfere in the
matter, and adjudges that the defendant shall
be tried in San Francisco county.

SOME GLoRY.-By the last Pony we learn
that Butterfied has taken the contract for
Daily Overland Mail by the Central route
and that he will also run the Pony three times
a week, making the trip in eight days. This
new arrangement is to go into effect on the
18th Of June until which time, the half moon
route, via all the war paths of the Apaches,
ComaEches, and hosts of other warlike Indians
is TO be discontinued. We can congratulate
the people of California upon the Inauguration
of this new feature in our mail facilities-so
much nceded-and hail it as another stride to-
wards our long-hopedfor Railroad. If Mr..
Butterfeld places good coaches upon this
ronte. as is anticipated, it will be the means of
turning an immense deal of travel across the
continent on that route. The trip can be ac-
complished in less time than by steamer, and
with but few more inconveniences, and will be
the means of building up a line of stations, in
a short period which will afford all that may
be required to make the trip comfortable
Much has been accomplished in opening up
the Central route, although it had everything
to contend with, even the frowns of the Fed
cral Administration. The Emigrant road
proved it a feasible route; the semi occasional
Overland Mail uia Salt Lake, found a shorter
route than the Southern and the Pony nailed
the conviction of its feasibility, shortness and
and adaptbility TO the great purposes of the
people of the Pacific coast.

A MARROW EscAPE-We learn from the
passengers who came down on the Shasta
stage, which arrived here yesterday morning,
that on Wednesday, the 9th inst, when the
passengers, with the mail and express matter
which came down from Shasta were crossing
the Sacramento River, at Tehama, the boat
became unmanageablc and was carried by the
current into n cluster of trees and capsized--
The passengers-of which there were ten men
and one woman-cl clung to the trees and were
compelled to rerain in that uncomfortable
position about one hour, before relief could
reach them. The mails, with the exception of
one bag, and all the express matter were saved.
Within half an hour after the passengers were
rescued from their perilous position, the trees
to which they had been clinging were under
mined and carried away by the current

1 MOVEMENT IN THE R,cur D1REcrroS.

A MOVEMENT IN THE RlGHr DIRECTION
The Legislature in the House, on Tuesday
last. passed resolution appointing Commit
tee to consist Of one member from each Sena-
torial District to report bill for apportion-
ment upon the abstract of the Census OF 1860.
If the Legislature should adjourn without
making a new apporlionment, it would be an
act of great injustice TO large portion OF the
Counties and Representative Districts OF the
State; this will readily be perceived by refer
ring to the reported Census, by counties, from
the Secretary of States Office. Our represen-
tation is very unequal and unsatisfactory, and
we claim it as right from the Legislature, to
correct the glaring wrong Under the present
apportionment, two or three large counties
uniting their Representative, can control the
whole legislation of the State, when by fair
adjustment under the late Census. the people
would be more fairly and justly represented.
The inequality of representation in the Legis-
lature has been, since our State organization,
one of the evils that the people have had just
cause to complain of, and it is TO be hoped
that the present Legislature will not permit
another year to pass without correcting this
evil. We see it reported that Mr. Harris is a
member of the Committee. and we shall expect
to hear from him in looking out for Butte
county's interest in this important matter
RESIDENT PHYSICIAN OF TIE INSANE AssY-
LUM-The j Joint Convention of the Legislature

w. P. Tilden received ifty-one votes-within
three of an election. The Convention adjourn
ed to meet again on Friday last. the result of
which we have not learned. No better man
we opine, can be found to fill the position than
our worthy member of the Assembly, Dr. Til
den, whose claims for the position coupled with
those of the people Of Butte County-should
be an incentive to the Legislation not to be
disregarded.

The Administration and the Fo.ts.

The last Pony news would seem to indicate
that The Administration has in serious consi-
deration, the policy of abandoning Fort Sumpt
er, and possibly the other Southern stroLgholds
of the Federal Government. However much
we may be Individually opposed to such poll
cy, as casting an apparent suspicion upon the
strength and reliance of the Government in
being able to reinforce the garrisons at all
points now in our possession, STILL if that tried
patriot, Gen. Scott. advises it, and is so conf
dent that judicious military movement of this
kind is warranted by the exigencies of the
times, and for the rectitude Of his Judgment in
this matter, is willing to assume the great re-
sponsibity Of so momentous and hazardous a
step, we humbly, but reluctantly, submit 10
his great experience and foresight, with the
hope that it may confound the enemies of our
country in their wicked endeavors to subvert
the Union and TO disgrace the country of their
birth and liberties.
We know, full well, that these forts, erected
at cost Of millions of treasure to the Federal
Government, were intended as q protection
against foreign foes; but we cannot believe,
it ever was intended they should be turned
over to rebelous subjects, who. we believe
would not hesitate one moment to use their
power against the very Government that con-
structed them for their protection And, in
this connection, we cannot refrain from ex-
pressing our admiration of that staunch patriot
and Southernor, Andrew johnson. of Tennes
see. He calls things by their right names
without being particular about technicalities
ard is not afraid to call men traitors to their
country, when they assume to fire at the flag
of their country in wrath to seize Arsenals,
Navy Yards and Custom Houses and to steal
the money MISUNDERSTANDING to the Govern
ment. We think, from the reports of the pro-
ceedings in the Senate of the United States,
that Johnson's reply to Lane, the Secessionist,
will place that General among the defuncts.
