TRINITY VoIUNTEEHs.-T Company of vol
untpers arrived in town on Tuesday last, and we
must say. have conducted themselves in very
crpditabe manner. The men complain of the in
difference shown them by the citizens of Trinity
county no patriotic display or demonstration
honored their departure, but. on the other hand
they were charged the highest price for every
necessary or luxnry they had.
The foregoing item is taken from the Red Bluff
In9ependent, of last Friday. There is no neces-
sity, among our people. to brand it as contempt
ible falsehood, but as it has been circulated
throughout the State, to the detrmeut Of our
citizens, and the good name they have always
borne for generosity and patriotism, the false
hood demands contradiction.
We can hardly imagine what motive prompted
the meD" to thus lie, unless it was an opportu-
nifty some of them embraced to pay old debts
The people Of Weaverville are under the impres.
sion that portion of the First Trinity Volun-
teer Company were treated with more kindness
and consideration than they ever deserved. The
action of our citizens was unavoidable, however,
from the fact that there were good men in the
Company
The facts are these: The loyal citizens of
Weavervlle subscribed and paid to the Commit
tee appointed to receive it, the sum of Sl066.-
This amount was used towards defraying the ex-
penses of the Company while in camp here, and
for transportation to Red Bluff The balance re-
maining-some S550--was placed in Capt. Crown
inshield's hand the morning the Company left
/" The men," it will be seen, could not have been
charged the highest price, They were charged for
nothing (f we except their whiskey,) that was
not paid out of the money collected, and even
that. in most instances bad to be- furnished gratis.
The Company was escorted from town by the
Weaverville Brass Band, the L" Trinity Guards" D."
and large body of citizens. 1t was matter
of congraulatiOn to our citizens when they bad
gone, in few instances, while many were told
" good bye" with regret.
We think the Hqdtpendent must have gained its
information, unwitingly, of course, from some
unRrateful loafer, for none other could 50 wlfu-
ly belle our place and people. And it cannot be
disputed that there were such men IN the Compa-
ny, notwithstanding a ma jorty Of them had been
sober, industrious citizens.
We have received letters from Capt. CrOwnin-
shield and Lieut. Blake, since the above extract
was published. Neither hesitate to pronounce it
Unauthorized and false and both regret its APP
pearance. We can with safety acquit both those
gentlemen, as well as Lieut.. White and Scrgeants
Foster and Soutbwck, of any completely in the
mean act, The guilty ones will be rewarded.

The OLDEST LITERARY MAN LIyING.-The
literary man who has made the pen profess
sion longest, now alive, is Cyrus Redding, of
England, who has been just ifty-fye years
in activity, and has probably written more
than any living contemporary. He was per
sonally lyacquainted with Lewis Wolcot, Top
ham, Sheridan, Canning, Scott, Wilson,
Hogg Moore, CGmpbell, &C.; with numer-
GUS distinguished foreigners, and characters,
not literary, but eminent in the arts and
natural philosophy. lie may be called .
link between the past and present in the
same profession. His first printed essay bore
date.lS04 and he is yet in health. Besides
contributing to most of the best known peri
odicals of the past, and editing above hun
dred volumes, besides from thirty or forty of
which he was the author, he established six
newspapers which he edited in England.
one his own. He also edited one in France,
and was connected with five others in this
country lie wrote in nearly all the princi-
pal periodicals, up to 1852. What is more
singular, he set out in support of liberal prin-
ciples when all was against them, and he
lived to see them triumphant when in his
gray hairs.
Daily national Democrat., 1861-01-20

GEoRGIA.-An important manifesto, says
an Atlantic exchange, has just been issued by
Senator Toombs in the shape of letter in
referenee to the fifth article of the Constitu-
ton, from, which there is reason to hope That
even this distinguished battler for Southern
rights is not wholly given over to disunion.
He says that 4, the Constitution should be
amended SO that its provisions could not be
evaded or resisted by Abolition States, and if
the Republicans Or a majority of them in
Congress, will vote for such an amendment,
he thinks it would be only reasonable and
fair to postpone final action in the Southern
States until the Legislatures of Northern
States could be called together for action
upon the Personal Liberty bills. Should this
action be adverse to the South, then he would
think it proper for Georgia to secede, at the
lasest by the 4th of March.
Late reports from Georgia, received in
Washington, indicate that, after all, South
Carolina is likely to be disappointed in her
expectations that the Empire State of the
South will afford her aid and countenance, to
the extent of following Immediately in her
footsteps, should she see fit to declare her
connection with the Union discovered. There
is asserted to be large party of Unionists
in Georgia, who will corporate with those
opposed to separate State action to defeat
the extremists, and, thus afford delay until
better counsels can prevail. These reports
created better feeling in Washington, and a
strong hope that, through the medium of the
Consulting Committee, something might yet
he done 10 stay the tide of disunion.
Daily national Democrat., 1861-01-20

VINO SAYS DIE "A prominent operator in
the turnpike through the Henness Pass was
in town a few days since attempting to
arouse the good people of this city from their
apathy for public improvements. He pro-
poses, after consultation with capitalists, to
build a railroad from Grass Valley to Neva-
da, of cheap construction and assures us that
it will be paying concern. Indeed the fg-
ures given do look flattering as shown u.s.
We have not learned how far successful was
the eloquence of the gentleman on the mon
led men of this city. but at any rate, he tells
US there is capital already promised sufficient
to ensure the construction of the work.
