CALtFoRNTA GIVES Hint TO EASTERN SOLDIERS.
The march of the California column to Arizona
and Texas is the theme of general praise with
the Eastern press and ia alluded to by the
Chicago Times in this manner
"The California troops who marched fifteen
miles day for nearly sixty days, through de-
serted country. Nith provisions or forage ex-
cept what they could carry who fOrdfd streams I;
passed over sandy plains fought Indians loss,
ten men; and arrived at the Texas border in
good condition, ready for an Immediate bout
with the rebels-those troops have set an exam
pie to our Northern soldiers which they should
not pass unheedcd. 1t is very clear, we think
that some things can be done as well as others"
There are two thousand more of the same
kind of volunteer material, who have been gar
rsoning The Pacific forts for year past, ready
and anxious to follow the example Of Carleton g
column Why is it that these men, enlisted over
a year ago, and who have been drilling aud per-
fecting themselves for service since that time,
are net sent to the battle fields of the East, as
they anticipated would be the case when they
volunteered their services to aid in putting doaen
the rebellion, and not to lie idle in the old forts
and camps where they are of no service? These
men volunteered to fight, and certainly bet
ter prepared for active duty than raw recruits.
We hope soon to hear that the remainder of the
troops on this coast who volunteered last year
are allowed an opportunity of giving evidence
that they would rather fight than lie idle at Gov
ernment expense.

BOLD VILLAINs.-O One Of the most daring rob
berries we ever heard of committed near
Douglas City about o'clock on Wednesday
morning. Two men entered the bedroom of Mr.
Wright Sudworth, where himself and wife were
sleeping, the door contrary to custom having
been left unlocked One of them presented q
pistol at Mr.. Sudworth's head, demanding
silence. at the same time stating that the instant
death of himself aud wife would be the penalty.
Mr. Sadwortb very naturally obeyed the injunc-
ton. while the fellow with the pistol proceeded
to remove from beneath his pillow a purse con-
tanning $3.50, having done which he remarked
10 his companion in the rear d" | have it," and
both suddenly departed. The whole transaction
was seemingly the work Of moment, and being
awoke from a sound sleep Mr.. Sudworth was un-
able to recognize either the faces OF voices OF
his unwelcome visitors lie is satisfied the par
ties were not strangers in the vicinity.

Ffom the loularile Journal, March lat
Mr.. Chas Matthews, from Nashville, call.
cd on US yesterday. On Thursday he was
impressed by the Confederate ttoopsin that
city, and employed in carrying meats "a
the Chattanooga railroad depot. The next
day they tried TO impress bin again, but he
escaped across tho river in n canoe to Edeo
field, where he heard that Col. Kenuett's
cavalry, of Gen. Mitchelrs division were.-
He told them how things were going on in
Nashville, and on Saturday piloted them
TO the river bank whero they seized three
steamboats,, the Hilman, the Runyon and
the Minnatonka, and went across to Nash
vile amid the loud cheers Of the citizens.
About thirteen hundred Of the enemy's cav.
airy, the Texas Rangers and Forests Ten.
nessee regiment were in the city; and Ken.
nett's cavalry gave chase to them, and,took
ten prisoners. Mr.. Matthews heard Gen
Floyd, before the great body Of the rebels
bad left Nashville, say that they would GO
and make stand at Chattanooga, and Mr.
NJ. believes they have done so. General
Floyd said within his hearing to General
johnson, that he thought il best to fall
back TO Chattanooga and defend the Cotton
States, letting Kentucky and Tennessee
take care Of themselves.
There was good reason why tho people
Of Nashville wished the presence of the
Federal troops. Tho outrages perpetratcd
there by the rebels were fearful. Some
of these outrages are unfit for publication
and banging would be too good for the au.
thors. Last Thursday four citizens were
shot before their shop doors because they
would not open their shops for robbery and
pillage. One lady was run through with a
sabre before the eyes of Mr.. Matthews be-
cause she would not submit 10 shame
