Fnn It the Cesrt IEs.,e.

A man may occasionally hear good thing
IN Judge Daingerfeld's Court during the
progress Of case.
For instance, the other day, While seated
outside the house, listening to an elaborate
argument in the case Of Loag & al. vs.. Bren-
nan Ct al, we enjoyed hugely what may
properly be called
"a BAD PLACE 10 BREAK DowS.-The ear
nest orator had grown decidedly eloquent in
his appeal to the jury. Gentlemen p said
he, we have been endeavoring honestly, BY
hard work, by honest labor, to make an hon
est living. We have not been spending our
time idling around the drinking saloons and
rum-holes of Shasta No. We have been
endeavoring to make an honest living BY
working our claim. But we have been re-
strained by the law. We have been driven
away by the strong hand of violence, and
thus defeated in our honest efforts to make an
hon there the orator coughs siolently, and
continues, in a whisper, an honest liringn
Decidedly bad place to break down at,
was it?
The other good thing may properly be
termed
A BAD SELL.-Soon after, an old inquisi-
tive fellow, slightly deaf, entered he Court
room, and, leaning about haff dod6le upon
his stick, by the side of L., who is somewhat
addicted to selling" too credulous people,
inquired in half-deaf mans peculiar whis-
per, loud enough to be heard all over the
Court room,
What's the case?
DEMONSTRATING, was the reply.
Oh, no borrowed the critter and took i'm
leetle too fur, Ell?
Yes, caught him below the BfuE.
Which is he?
There, says L., pointing to the counsel op-
posed to his side-Ex- Senator S S-g-e-
who was very composedly and industriously
whiting away at a pine stick,
All! takes it cody, don't he? Thinks he's
got good thing pr'aps. Whittles away
quite pert, don't he?

The Head Of Navigation.

kis runored that the opposition steamer
McClelland" is destined to run up to Clear
Greek. Of course we have not the slightest
faith in the report. If the owners had any
such purpose now would be the time to carry
it into effect The water is superabundant,
and, indeed, we were informed by one in the
Cal. St. Nav. Co.'s employ, who knows
there Is no serious obstacle in the way of
navigating the river from the Bluff to Clear
Cresk, or to Reeds Ferry, even in tho low
stage Of the river in summer time.
There is no belief more firmly fixed in our
mind than that Shasta may, with the addi-
ton Of horse railroad two or three miles in
length, be made the virtual head of naviga-
tion, By the expenditure of little enterprise
and few thousand dollars In no other
country in the world-in no other portion of
this State even, would fifty or sixty miles of
good navigable river be permitted thus to re-
main unoccupied by steamboats,.
Shasta is at the real head of steamboat
navigation ON the Sacramento river. This is
permit men of superior enterprise to retain it
afty or sixty miles below! This is absolutely
disgraceful Of course it will not be per-
mitted to remain thus always. So vast
source of wealth as sixty miles of good navi-
gable river will not remain unappropriated
forever The. time must come when il win be
occupied. A town, ranking in Importance
with Marysville, must yet spring up at the
head of steamboat navigation on the Sacra-
mento river. This is inevitable. Capital and
enterprise may postpone the day, it may be,
for years, but the time will come, just as
sure as the Sacramento river flows, when the
steamboat whistle will be heard daily from
the spot where we now write this prediction.
Our citizens may hasten the day if they
will. They may in few months establish
beyond dispute the fact that here, within
mile or two of our hill-begirt town, is
the real and only head of steamboat nav
igation on the Sacramento river. Will
they do it2

The Administration Peace Policy.

The last Pony's news-to be found in our
telegraph column, confirms the report of
It's predecessor, that the Administration was
going to order withdrawal of the troops
from Fort Sumter Gen. Scott considers
such withdrawal military necessity under
the circumstances, if the Initiation of civil
war would be avoided. Maj. Anderson was
short of provisions, although he was allowed
to procure fresh meat from the Charleston
market every day. He had salt provisions
and wood on hand only sufficient to last ten
or fifteen days, and to reinforce him would
require at least ten thousand men, backed by
all the naval force at command. Hence the
Administration has wisely determined to re-
linquish that fort-an act of Cancellation
which will rebound to the honor of those in
power.
But what will those terrible fighting peo-
pie, hereabouts, who wanted Uncle Abe to
whip the refractory States, and said he would
whip the refractory States back into the
Union-what, we repeat, will they say to
this unexpected peace movement of the Ad-
ministration?
What will they say? 1t matters but little.
Those men who have talked most about
whipping the South, are the last men in the
world to go where danger shows its 'front.'
Men who talk fiippantly of slaughtering
their own countrymen are generally natural
towards.

A MAN KILLED BY INDIANs.-We learn
that, on Sunday last, while old man Fullwi-
der and three companions, were out hunting
in the Hay Fork country, in Trinity county,
they were attacked by Indians, and Mr.. Full
wider killed. His companions sought safety
IN a cabin, which they barricaded, and a
company of men from Weaverville had gone
to their rescue. We have not learned how
the intelligence of their perilous position was
brought to Weaverville.
Mr.. Fullwider, year or two ago was in
charge of Howe's ditch, at Arbuckle, in this
county. Mr. F. was formerly resident of
Rockbridgecoanty, Virginia, where we knew
HIM slightly. In this State he had always
sustained the reputation of an honest man.

near the Canon House, wagon, with freight

were instantly killed, and the driver, a son
Of the proprietor of the team, was consider
ably stunned. The goods were set on fire,
The Red Bluff Independent says Mr.. Cos
sctt is poor and lily prepared to sustain this
loss. A purse of $3.50 was made up by some

AS SOME of our citizens regretted the vote
cast by Hon. John White against the ''Union
Resolutions" adopted in Assembly, we ap-
pend the following resolution offered by him
as substitute for the whole, as giving his
views on the secession and war question
Resolved" That we cordially indorse
the plan of compromise, for the difficulties
now existing in the Atlantic States, of the
Hon. John J. Crittenden in the Senate of the
United States, and that pending the existing
difficulties we deprecate the use of force to
coerce the people of the seeding States, and
that we prefer compromise to war and con-
cession rather than disunion.
1t is safe to say that vast majority of the
people of this county indorse every word of
their Assemblyman's resolution. We have
not met one Democrat who has not declared
himself in favor of the Crittenden Compro-
mise. John White was in favor of that Com
promise, and yet certain Democrats profess
dissatisfaction because of his action relative
to the resolutions adopted. This is unjust.
Suppose he did vote agaist resolutions which
you approve, you know that his views are
also such as you can endorse. Who're then
is the occasion for censure.

Gov. DowNEY CoULDN'T HAVE DONE IT.
Gov. Downey has bravery enough to face a
thousand frowning politicians, when backed
by consciousness of being in the path of du-
ty. He can, by the terrible Veto, crush the
most gigantic scheme of villainy concocted
for the robbery of the people. But he cam
stay the progress of the thunderbolt. So
thinks young Gossett, recently struck by
lightning near the Canon House.
When unloading his freight for Mr.. Seelig,
on it being discovered that sornr of the foods
had been considerably damag NJ. ogel-
with assumed seriousness, remarked,
"Why, my good friend, you won't charge
freightage ON these damaged goods, will
you?"
"Why not?" responded young Ajax, who
successfully defed the lightning, II couldn't
help it-no man could have helped it-why,
even Gov. Downey couldn't have saved the
id stuff from that streak of lightning"
Young Gossett is no very green gosling,
evidently.
