@B- Some of the protessed Independent and
Union Democratic papers of the State are very
hostile to a union with Democrats they please to
term secessionists They are quite willing, how
ever that secessionists or those who voted for Nc
Connell, may vote for such candidates rs they
would put in the field. but will not listen to any
fellowship. These dictatoral sheets will proba-
bly, live to learn that it is much easier to call men
secessionists and traitors than TO prove them to
be so; and further, that those who arc really DEM
ocruts, and opposed to negro emancipation aud
negro equality with the white man, which are the
teachings and tendencies Of the Republican party,
will find a way to combine against these odous
political hercsies, and against the woeful extrava-
gance and pecuation that have marked every day
of their administration since in power.
This silly cry, calling Democrats in California
seccssonists. is Il cheap way OF making political
capital, but il cannot continue to divert the aten
ton Of the masses from the designs and nnparal
leed corruption OF the Republican party.

AN INDIAN RESERVATION "GoNE In -
The old Nome Lackee Reservation is about
gone in The lands are being settled on by
citizens-the diggers have generally left, and
bats and owls have taken possession of the
remnants of the buildings at the old head
quarters We are informed that the adobes
are crumbling to the ground, while the
wooden fences, and outhouses are being con-
sumed for frewood. On the Reservation
there are not left more than 80 Indians, who
are eking out miserable existence, destitute
of everything save filth and disease.

MISERABLE PERsECUrIoN.-A certain
clique in this city, for some reason, are anx
ions TO get Judge McAllister off the bench
of the U. S. Circuit Court. Failing to find
any charge against his character they pretend
that old age has impaired his intellect-that
he is becoming imbecie in his mind. If the
Judges defamers were possessed of one half
of his powers of mind and brIliancy of in
telect the Safe wonld be far richer in men,
tai wealth than it is now. Judge McAllister
is, to all appearance, more vigorous in body
and mind than one half the men in this city
who have not yet seen 40 years OF age.

The New GOLD FIELD.-The Dutch Flat
Enquirer publishes extracts from letters
written bv several late resi- lens of that place
from Portland, Oregon, in reference to the
new mines They agree that the represent

roads, against persons leaving California for
the lirpinrs until about the lst of May.
Mr.. G. A. Bartlett, citizen of Dutch Flat,
whose statements can he implicitly reIlel
upon, writing from Portland on the 3lst OF
March, saws he could not find out great
deal about the mines, but that the river WAS
open for navigation as far AS LewiSton; that
the roads were so bad that il was impossible
TO get provisions to the new mines. The re
ports | hear from the mines are too eXtraV
agant as to their richness for any one in their
senses to believe. The first of May | think
is time en- ugh for persons to start, AS they
cannot make much Roadway before that
time. There are many leaving here for the
new mines in all directions. If any al
