MARYsvILLE, Aug. 26, 1861.

W
11onorable John 9. Downey, Sacramento
Dear Sir: I-would most respectfully cali
',onr Excellencys attention to the apportion-
w., of direct taxes for the different States
naoently levied by Congress.
7, il plain that they have apportioned the
20 bv the census of 1850, and if the taxes
ors thus apportiuned, why should not repre-
seutation be alsof
The plain provisions Of the Constitution are
.hot aRepresentative and direct taxes shall
he eapportioned among the different States ac-
oording to their population" and if Congress
Gees fit to tax us in proportion to three Rep
resentatives. it would seem eminently right
and proper that three should be elected and
,y;Il be entitled to their seats. The $4,000 =
oOC tax divided by the whole number of Rep
res.ptativ es (233) would give a ratio of $50
es7 TO each--to three it would give S257 oil.
California's quota is put at $254,638, which
ia the exact proportion to her population nc
cording to the census of 1860.
The foregoing has been suggestedito me BY
eminent legal gentlemen. and to me it
seems reasonable.
II this should meet your views, it would
seem to avoid difficulties by amending your
proclamation as regards Congressman.
Personally care little about it. and
write this for your consideration, for the
election, as the thing now stands, may do in
Justice TO the other members on the ticket
who were duly nominated by the ConHen'
tion.
Very truly your obedient servant.

Inc shortest path to peace is that which

IL Is believed that there are five or ten thou

Is proposed that all who are willing to make
this sacrifice shall arm themselves with II
sword, two five-shooters and carbine each.

OF these eitie, cannot be better taught tn
virtues of invasion than by the blazing light
OF their own dwellings.
