ANOTHER FUDcE.-The rebel Congress
has passed resolution that they will fight
until they have lost the last man and cxpend-
ed the last Confederate bond What they
will do then, the report does not go on to

Donelson, as pledge that fighting was to be
done there down to the last man," but
when we got down to about twenty thousand
of that individual, a part of them surrcn-
dered Internationally, and the balance took
to the woods, carrying the last man" with

Our CoNGRATULATIoNs.-W tender to
the Placerville Democrat, Marysville Ex-
press, Butte Democrat, Sierra Citizen, and
several other rigid Democratic journals
of this State, the most sincere congratula-
tions over the prospects of an early ''peace, !"
We have no doubt but that the happiness
of these journals over the prospect of an
early peace is inexpressible. They have la
bored for the restoration of quiet, in season
and out of season, and their reward is near
at hand. Selah.

THs OlDEsr.-The Shasta COURIER is the

been exchanging for goodly number of
years, are little younger than we are

DISTRESSING ArFAIR-Mr Matthew Brandt
who resided at Brandt & Latour's ranch, on
Battle Greek, in this county, committed sui
eide at that place about the 6rst inst, by
shooting himselfthrough the head, while la
boring under temporary lit of insanity, in
duced, it is supposed by losses in business.
Mr. Brandt came to this county from one of
the North western States, in 1852, since which
period he has bccon known to our people as
good and valuable citizen, who countedhis
friends every where. He leaves wife and
child to mourn his untimely death.

Our Eleventh Volume.

This is the first issue of the Eleventh VOL
ume of the SHASTA COURIER. In entering
upon new year, we desire to have fair un-
derstanding with our friends and patruns.-
We are desirous of furnishing good, read
able paper to our subscribers, and to do this.
we bestow much care and attention on the
sheet under our control, and do everything
possible to give our subscribers and patrons
their full moneys worth. 1t is to be remem-
bered that the duties of a newspaper publish
er and his patrons are reciprocal, and if the
first named does his duty, he has an unques-
tfonaple right to insist that his friends COM
ply with theirs. We do not like to refuse to
do work for anybody who wishes US to do it,
even when our chances of payment are of the
dimmest character, but every one ought to
Know thas it costs US money to publish a pa
per. and therefore ought not, in justice, to
ask us to work unless payment is assured
If the reader could glance at our books, and
see there the amount due US for probate no.
tces, summonses, sole trader notices, insol-
vent notices, delinquent subscribers, &C., he
would understand US fully. 1t is best to be
plain about these matters. We are not pre-
pared to furnish newspaper, print adver-
tisQments, and do up job work for nothing.
and E6y- WE DON'T INTEND TO DO IT.-Sssa
The COURIER is one of the best advertising
mediums in the northern part of the State,
circulating extensively among enterprising
business men, our charges are reasonable,
the paper is permanency, and we expect
for these reasons to procure a Il 'beral support.
During the ten years it has been established,
we have not missed issuing our paper at the
appointed time, and we do not expect to for
the next ten years.

FAuLKNER.-The telegraph informs us that
Faulkner, of Va, Buchanan's Minister to
Prussia, recently made speech in which he
declared that the hopes of Southern Con-
federacy were at an end, and that the best
thing that could be done, would be to make
peace as quickly and as advantageously as
possible. We susp pect that he has got hold of
copy of this paper, and has been appropri-
ating some Of its fanatical notions. We said
the same thing four months ago.

who know the man will believe him. Wea-
ther permitting, we'll be there.

CHANGE IL TAcrIcs.-The rebel plan of
fighting makes an important change IN drill.
Instead of the command of " FIRE and fall
back" they have substituted ".faa back
without firing" Judging from recent events
in Missouri, we expect they will adopt yet
another change, viz: prepare to poison.

FoR THE SALMON RIVERA New RoUrE.
We learn that party of one hundred men
will shortly leave this county for the North
ern mines. 1t is proposed to go by way of
the Humboldt mines, thence TO the head wa
tsrs of the Snake or Owyhee rivers, and down
one of these streams until they strike pay
dirt. 1t is to be remembered that the Salmon
mines are on tributary of Snake river, and
the presumption is plausible that gold can be
found at almost any point along its course, or
any other of its tributarie-, rs the Owyhee,
for instance. This party will visit country
hitherto unexplored, except by French voy-
ageurs or Hudson Bay Company men. The
company will go prepared to resist all at
tacks from the Snakes, or other hostile In
dians. If any one will trouble himself to
look at map of the Salmon mines Ito be
had at Gold & Philippson's,) he will perceive
that tho distance from Shasta to the new
mines is not greater than on any other route.
