AssEMBLYMAN JOHN WHiTE-This gentle
man was weak member of the Legislature
of 1860. When spoken of as candidate for
reelection. we said, through the columns OF
tho independent Appeal, (Which paper We
were at that time editing,) that he was not
the kind of man to represent Shasta. or any
other county, in such body. His constitu-
ents appear, also, to have made that discov-
cry, now that it is too late to help them
selves. The Northern Argus, of the county
named, holds the following language con-
corning him:
"Among those who left the regular eau
Gus, we are sorry to mention the name of
our representative, John White. Thus, Dem.
ocrats, are you represented. 1t was not for
this that you voted at the last election, we
know; it was not for this that you threw off
your coat on election day last, in strong
effort to defeat John S. P. Bass. We know
it was not. But the coalition is made, and
those whom you condemned at the last cleo
tion, have got possession of your representa-
tive"

DEATH OF B. YATEs.-We mentioned some
weeks ago, that Mr.. Joseph B. Yates, awell-
known resident of Nevada, had become in
sane From the time he was taken, he was
impressed with the idea that he should live
but short time, and on Sunday evening
last he died. A post mortem examination
was made by Drs. Hunt, Wickes and Bates,
and it was found that his death was occasioned
by dropsy of the brain. 1t appears that he
had been suffering with the disease for some
years. The deceased was son of Mr.. Rob-
ert Yates, who came to Nevada in the spring
of 1853, accompanied by three sons and a
daughter, all of whom, with the exception
of one SON, William Yates, are now sleeping
their last sleep in the Nevada cemetery. The
elder Mr.. Yates died in March, 1854 Mrs.
NJ. NJ. Tallman, the daughter, died in May ,
1855; and one of the sons, John Yates. lost
his life ia the FIRE of July, 1856. They came
from Dubuque, Iowa, where portionof the
family now reside.-Democrat.

HAS GONE OvER.-We observe, by the pro-
ceedings of Breckenridge caucus held at Sacra-
mento on Tuesday evening, that the name OF
Capt. N. c. Miller, Assemblyman from this
place, appears among those who participated and
accepted of the slight honors which it had to be-
stow. Crittenden, Thornton, Merritt and Mont
gomery were of the meeting. These men, it is
we'll known, have defined their respective posi-
tions in favor of the South as against the Union
and we now have Capt. Miller acting with them
cheek-by-jowl.
We voted for this gentleman, and have high
esteem for him personally; but think we will
be joined in the declaration by great majority
of the Union-loving people of this county, when
we declare emphatically-as we like to do on any
and every subject about which we write-that,
following such men, and advocating such detesta-
BILE doctrines, he cannot expect to be sustained
by his constituency. They belong to an entirely
different "stripe."
The hydraulic press., 1861-03-02

THE Two FAcEs.-Mooney does not deny
that he lectured at Marysville in favor of the
Union, and wrote in his paper favoring a
Pacific Republic. He does, however, point
us to the two distinct periods of time at
which the separate actions were performed,
and the secession events transporting in the
interim, as kind of justification. He cites
us to the manifesto of Bishop Purcell, of
Cincinnati, which breathes lofty spirit Of
devotion to the Union, and appeals to all
good Catholics to defend it. We don't ex
aetly understand the object of the citation,
but we do heartily indorse the eloquent
language of the learned Bishop. And, ger
main to this subject, We observe that Bishop
Allemany, of our own State, addresses a
pastoral letter to the Roman Catholics of his
flock, which is eminently patriotic and wor-
thy of praise. The Church is honored that
boasts such priests.

Hg@ Col. Whitman and son, from Washoc,
passed through this place on Sunday night
last, about eleven O'Clock. They were on
their way to Nevada, in response to mes
sage from their respective families, announc-
ing sickness and death. One Of the younger
Whitman's children-a little daughter died
on the Wednesday previous. A second
child-also daughter-died on Monday
evening last, after the parties had reache d
their homes. A daughter of Col! Whitman
was also i'll; but, we are pleased to learn, is

WORD CouRAGE.-The President instructs his
Secretary of War ad interim (Mr. J. Holt) to say
to the Governor of North Carolina, among other
things:
tits not his purpose to garrison the forts to
which you refer at present, because he considers
them entirely safe, as heretofore, under the shell
ter of the law-abiding sentiment for which the
people of North Carolina have ever been dis
tinguished. Should they, however, be attacked
or menaced with danger of being seized and taken
from the possession of the United States, he
could not escape from his Constitutional obliga-
ton to defend and preserve them."
But it seems he has escaped from his Consti-
tutional obligations" thus far. Nearly all the
forts belonging to the General Government in
the seeding States have been captured without
blow being struck either to defend or retake
them.

We are willing to support the Union as
long as it is Union but we are not willing
TO support fragment. That is our defined
position. Make the most of it,"
How does such language tally with his
professions for uErin ?" He supports Ire
land, and Ireland is but fragment. of the
British Union. On the same principle, he
would cling to man while he was rich and
prosperous, but desert him when in trouble
and most in need of friends That kind oil

IT P1NCHED.-The following passage took
place in the United States Senate, February 4th
Mr.. Hale protested against the assertion that
the North was making war. On the contrary,
their position was such as would subject them to
the charge of cowardice. The Senator said there
was force North favorable to his section. If war
is to come, the first thing shall do will be to
take care of Northern traitors.
Mr.. Lane wanted to know whom he called
traitors.
Mr.. Hale-Exactly those men who fight against
their own State.
Mr.. Lane-They are fighting for their Consti.
tuition and rights as States. I will allow no man
to call them traitors.
Mr.. Hale wanted to define no mans position
but repeated, if forced into war, the North would
first take care of treason at home.

In BLooM.-Apricota and peach trees in several
of our San Juan gardens, bursted into bloom as
much as ten days ago. On Tuesday there was a
fail of snow. AS the short-lived fakes descend
ed upon the blossoms and whitened the face OF
the earth, the prospect for coming fruit crop
looked rather discouraging. Since that time
there has been all kinds of weather, including
high winds, bright sunshine and severe frosts.
Yet we are told no damage has been sustained
by the trees, and that there is good prospect for
an abundant fruit season.

Too TRUE.-A writer in the Marysville Dem

Too TnUE-A writer in the Marysville Dem
ocrat says:
The late movements of the old party leaders
in Sacramento should warn the people that it is
high time for them to manage their own affairs.
Political hucksters have been trusted with the
helm of State until the ship is now floundering
in breakers, and nothing but the strong shoulders
of the people applied to the wheel can, by any
possibility, save her from going to pieces. The
people should now dismiss from their services,
those whose selfshness has well nigh ruined the
country eschew all former party considerations,
and erect broad and substantial Union Plat
form, upon which all patriots, all constitutional
men, and all classes and conditions, save traitors,
can stand"
Yes; and in order to be able to recognize these
"hucksters" hereafter, let the papers be filed
away upon them, and when they come up again
for Office, draw their own speeches upon them.
