STRArEaY.-Some of our Secesh friends
are of the opinion that the Confederates
have allowed the Federals to capture Nash
vile as stratagem. A number of railroads
center at Nashville, and it is thought to be
the purpose of the rebel leaders to entice
the FederalItroops to that point, and then,
by the rapid concentration of overwhelming
numbers of rebel troops, surround aud cap
ture the entire Federal army, Beanregard,
it is thought, has been sent to Tennessee to
plan and carry out this brilliant military
feat. Some such policy as tn is, was fore.
shadowed ly an article 10 late number Of
De BOWS Review.

LAND FOR RAlLRoADs.-Mr. Sargent has IN
trodnced bill into the House of Represen-
tatives making extensive grants Of land TO
California, for railroad purposes. II isa
sort Of Omnibus bill, and makes liberal
grant to every protested railroad in The
State. The Pacific Railroad, from Sacra-
mento to the eastern line Of The State, With a
branch to Nevada, is to have every alter
nate section for ten miles in width on each
side of the road and branch, and other
roads are to have every alternate section
for six miles ia width. The bill was refer
red to the Committee on Public Lands, and
of their expected action, the correspondent
of the Bulletin says:
The Committee on Public Lands, while adj
verse to Mr.. Sargents bill granting lands IN
aid of various railroads enterprises in CalifOr-
MIA, is favorably disposed to grant in favor Of
the road between Sacramento and Carson VAL
ley, because they appreciate the latter truly as
link in the great Pacific Railroad. Their OBJ
lection to the other grants proposed is founded
on their desire to reserve the public lands for
homesteads of actual settlers.
The objections Of the Committee to the
proposed grants might easily be obviated
by requiring the railroad companies to dis
pose of all the land within a specified time.
A serious objection to the proposed grant
for the Pacific Railroad and branch is, that
the lands along the routes are held as min
eral lands, aud not subject to entry. If the
people Of the mining counties would favor
the policy OF having the mineral lands
segregated and The remainder sold, they
might with some justice ask for grauts for
railroad purposes.

HUMBu0 PETITToNs.-Some months ago.
paragraph, which originally appeared in an
English paper, went the rounds of the
American press, to the effect that large
number of citizens of Maiue-19, 900 we be-
Iieve-had petitioned to be annexed to
Queen Victoria's dominions. Every sensible
American could form no other conclusion
than that The paragraph was an idle rumor;
but the London Court Journal, OF late
date, says second petition of similar
purport has been received from the inhabI-
tants of Maine. 1t is barely possible that
fow Canadians or Englishmen living in
Maioe may have forwarded such petition
TO the British Government; but more prob
ably, some waggisb Yankees have been
hoaxing John Bull. The Americans who
live near the Canada borders have ss much
love for their country as those Of other Sec
tions, aud none Of them would willingly be-
come the subjects Of Queen Victoria.

EASTERN NEws.-Dispalches from Marys'
vile, received yesterday evering, give the
more important items Of Eastern news tel
eglaphed across the continent on Tuesday
Nashville, the Capital of Tennessee, aud as
a Secesh paper sometime since said, "the
heart of the Southern ConGederacy," has
been captured by the forces under General
Buell., without firing gun. Gen. Scott aas
been seut Minister to Mexico. Lord Pal
merston, the British Premier, has stated in
Parliament, that he instructed Lord Lyons,
early in January, to inform our Govern
ment that England would not recognize the
Southern Confederacy, until both Govern
ments were agreed; or ia other words until
the Coufederacy had been acknowledged by
the United States. Al the time of writing
this, we have received no particulars, but
may have further details before going to
press.
The Nevada Democrat., 1862-02-27

THE CHINESE QUEsTIoN.-What shall be
done with the Chinese, is question now agita-
ting our law makers in San Francisco. We
perceive that bill has been introduced taxing
each one in the State four dollars per month,
whether male or female, and whether living in
the mines or not. This is exclusive of the
mining tax, now paid by those at work on the
mineral lands of the State. 1t seems to be con-
sidered that the most sumptuary laws should be
passed to exclude them from the State. Hence
this bill. 1t is Ieadily enough conceded that
the Chinese do not constitute desirable ele-
ment in California society, and that steps should
be taken to exclude them from the State, but it
is matter of very considerable doubt if it is
good policy to tax them as this bill proposes.
Every Chlnaman in the mines should be COM
PEELED to purchase mining license. or this
there can be no doubt; but to say that in ad-
dition thereto he should pay four dollars per
month is rather rough. The truth is just here:
They are not able to pay it. If it is the inten-
ton of the legislators to drive them out of the
State, let Congress bememorialized on the sub
lect, and no doubt justice would be done us.
We are opposed to all species Of oppression,
even of the disgusting Chinese, and eight dol
lars per month has rather the look of unwar-
rantable extortion.-[Shasta Courier.

PAY OF RECRUITING OFHUERs.- Senator
Lewis has introduced bill into the Legls
iature, which was referred to the Military
Committee, TO pay the Captains of cOmpa-
nies The expenses they incurred in recruit
ing volunteers.
Section I'd makes it the duty of the Board
of Examiners to audit and allow such claims,
provided that no pay shall be allowed to any
officer for his individual services, or for the
time he may have been engaged in recruiting
and organizing his COMPANY: and provided fur
ther that no pay shall be made to any officer
whose company has not been actually muster
ed into the public service, under his command
as captain; and provided further that no allow
ance or pay shall be made to any officer for any
expenses incurred after the company was or
ganized and lettered, and no one captain shall
be allowed to receive an amount to exceed
$500.

AN Eastern dispatch, received at San
francisco, states that Gen. Buckner has
been arrested, on a warrant issued by Jus.
tice Catron, of the U, S. Supreme Court, for
treason. Buckner, il will be remembered,
was commander Of the rebel garrison lately
taken prisoners at Fort Donelson. Justice
Catron was driven from his home, at Nash
vile, Tenn, some months ago, on account
of his Union sentiments; and it is said that
his property 10 Nashville was conlscated.

river. Here in Portland, men have little idea
of trip to the mines at such time as this,

couple of weeks. Rushing heedlessly into dan

GEN. SHELDs.-The Shasta Courier, in
referring to Senator McDaugalPs card,
charging Gen. Shields with disloyalty, says:
We take the liberty of saying that we are
most credibly informed that Shields, in San
Francisco, after his return from Mexico, did
express the warmest wishes for the success Of
the rebellion. This he did to a well known gen.
tleman Of this county. There can be no doubt
but that the nomination of Shields to the posi-
ton Of Brigadier- General was unwise. Names
are at the service Of any gentleman calling for
them.

ENGLAND DETERMINED ON Wharf.-The
London correspondent of the Manchester
Guardian. paper devoted to the mannlac.
turing interests, in letter OF December
18th. says:
The conviction forces itself upon many that
the day is not far distant when the Southern
Confederation must be recognized, and that
recognition may be expected to bring about a
fresh difficulty, in which we must be prepared to
maintain our policy. 1t is with this view, and
as demonstration of our intention to hold our
own way, that the Government are sending out
100, 900 men to Canada without any reference
to the reply of the American Cabinet II Messrs.
Mason and Slidell landed at Liverpool tO-mor-
row, not a soldier the less would be sent out.
II we are to have a war with the North, in con-
nection with the United States schism, there
would be no more favorable time than the pre-
sent. 1t would be a short and decisive war,
and would have a vital influence on the preser-
vation oi peace and the uninterrupted freedom
of commerce for many years to come, without
our having to pass through the ordeal of social
and mercantile confusion which wars, as gen.
eral rule, entail. Our military departments are
working double time. The clothing establish
ment at Pimlico was at full work all last night
and the preceding one.

How THE VoTE STooD.-As confmatory
of the recent unmistakable Union indications
in Tennessee, it is proper to refer to the fact
that that State, in the last Presidential election
went for the Union tickets, led by Douglas and
Bell, by fifteen thousand nine hundred and fif-
teen majority. We should also remember that
great many were seduced into the support of
Breckenridge, who are, and always have been
devoted Union men.

Foreign News.

HALIFAX, Feb. 22d-'The steamship Niagara
from Liverpool, Feb. 9th, has arrived, OrlhBinB
two days later news. o;u;,
Six sets of Parliamentary papers, on the clVh
war in America, have been laid before the
British Parliament. About forty-hye of1clal
communications passed about the Tuscarora
and Nashville.
Among the special correspondence laid oeloIe
Parliament, was Earl RusselPs declaration 70
the Southern Commissioners, that England
could not acknowledge the Confederate States
until war, or further negotiations, more clearly
determined their position.
Gregory, in the House Of Commons, de-
nounced the blockade as mere paper one:
1t appears that in January, 1861, Earl nus
sell instructed Lord Lyons, if Iincoln's Cabinet
asked for advice, to reply that England declined
it, unless both parties applied for counsel.
Earl Russell reports the substance OF con-
yersation with Yancey, Rost and Mann, who
urged the recognition of the Southern Confed,,
eracy, His answer was, that England would
observe a strict neutrality. Her Majesty coulu
not acknowledge the independence of the Con-
federacy until the fortunes of war, OF peaceful
negotiation, more clearly determined the re-
spective positions of the two belligerents'
In December, when war appeared prooaole
between England and America, Lord Lyons
was directed 70 speak with Seward about letters
of marque, and say that Great Britain was
willing to abolish privateering, if the President
would make a similar agreement.
Indications in Parliament were that secession
would be quiet.
The London Times says the American peo-
pie, in the last six months, have contrved 10
spend more money in a shorter time, and 10
less purpose, than any other people on the face
of the globe, and that is literally all that has
been done. 1t argues that subjugation OF the
South and future reunion is impossible.
An official Gazette is published by order OF
the Privy Council, removing the prohibitions on
the export of saltpeter, arms, ammunition, etc.
