Not Exactly Correct.

The Express does not correctly represent
us, in its remarks with regard to an alleged
change in our position as to coercive meas
ures by the Government, since reading Doug
lass speech. If the Express will read oul
remarks in reference to that speech, it will
find that we declared that we agreed with
Douglas an the main that we said that. il
we thought by the imbecilty of Buchanan,
rebellion had progressed to such an extent as
to be well nigh success, and that an at
tempt at coercion would fail, we should of
course be opposed to any military NOV cment
on the part of the Government. We never
once said that we were uncondtionally of the
opinion that attempted coercion would fail
nothing of the kind The utmost that W,
said was this: "Whatever might have beel
done before, in the way of coercion, had tn,
Administration acted with promptness, i
does indeed begin to look seriously doubtful
whether coercion would not now be too
bloody process"
We expressed our desire that Compro
mise should be made, which would settle tn,
existing troubles. But, we have never said
what we would be in favor of, in case Com
promise failed, Neither has Douglas, if We
remember rightly. The question is simply
one of Compromise or War, and we prefer
Compromise AT the same time, we think
the strong right arm of the Government
should have been barred at the outset of these
revolutionary movements, because then wa;
the time to act with efficiency.
What course we shall, in our humble way
desire that the Government should take to-
at peaceable adjustment fail, we are not
now prepared to say; but the right to coerce
them, whether by means of a military posse
comitatus, to enforce law as against individ,
viduals, or whether by means of wal
against Governments de .fdcto Gf they must
be recognized as such) we still maintain.
There is one thing however, which we arr
prepared to say, and that is that we shall
oppose any secession movement upon thi.
coast, at all hazards, and that, no matter
how successful revolution may be in the
South, we shall oppose any attempt at the
establishment of Pacific Republic or any
act whatever that is disloyal to the Natona
flag of the stars and stripes. California
should remain with the Union. 1t is not on

ANOTHER INDIAN -Representative
White has introduced a bill into the Assem-

for losses sustained during the years 1857,
'5s and SO; from the depredatons of Indians
on Pitt River. We have no idea that the
bill will pass, and it does, the Governor
should certainly veto it. If this claim was
allowed, there are hundreds of other claims
in this county, of an equally meritorious
character that should be allowed There are

III When Garibaldi was in Sicily, dwarfish
deforIned little man presented himself as volun-
teer, but was refused by the committee. Nothing
daunted, he went to Garibaldi, and begged the
General to accept him. Here, again, he was re-
fused. After one of the frst battles, the little
individual came up Garibaldi, and joyfullY
exclaimed, "See, General, you would not take
fought well; indeed have; and am wounded
too.a Garibaldi, who recognized the man, re-
piled, "Ah! bravo. and where are you wounded,''
After some hesitation, the O! her showed a wound
between his shoulders. "Oh, ie. said Garibaldi,
wounded in the back. knew you would never
be anything good" The soldier retired quite
confused and ashamed. Another battle soon fol-
lowed, and II was scarcely over when the poor
fellow again accosted his chief. "Here | am,
General, wounded again, but this time on the
right side;" and, pointing to a wound ip hii
breast, he fell dead at Garibaldps feet.
