U. S. CIRCUIT JUDeE-Hon Stephen j.
Field, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court OF
this State, has been appointed by the Presi-
dent ID the honorable position of Judge of the
United States Circuit Court, to fill the vacan-
cy occasioned by the resignation of Judge
McAllister. Judge Field was appointed up
on the unanimous recommendation of our re.
'presentatives in both Houses of Congress,
and is judicious and wise selection. This
appointment could not have fallen TO a more
upright and learned jnrist in this State.
Judge Field is an unconditional Union man.
and his appointment will give satisfaction n to
the people of this coast.

Could 'NfSTAND IT.-One of our most re-
spectacle citizens had a small sized skirmish
the other day, in the Oroville stage, with a
Shasta Doctor, whose mouthappeared to have
been too offensive for the courage of his
heart. The following conversation brought
on the skirmish:
Doctor Are you acquainted with Major
Bidwell ?''
Citizen of Chico" Yes."
Doctor. -.sHe is a Id traitor to the
Democratic party, and ought to be in hell,
d-n him."
Citizen of Chico, maddened by the unjust
and abusive epithet.-" You are miserable
puppy, and ought to be sprawling in the mud,
d-n you;;" whereupon the Majcr's friend
sent him rolling through the stage door, and
following up the advantage thus manfally
gained, lit upon the poor cuss outside. The
Doctor, finding retreat impossible owing to a
peculiar sensation about the wind. pipe, nat
nrally weakened before the champion of true
friendship.
Our hero is not the only man that would
maui an unjust enemy of the Major; more.
over, the man who has not an enemy in these
trying times, is unworthy of a afriend-- Chico
Lnder
Who is the Shasta DoctorH The only
Doctor from Shasta who has been down thai
way recently is DR.. Pelham, and he wishes
us to say that he is-not the man., as he got
into no difficulty of any kind during his alb.
sense from here.

TROUBLE IN HONEY LAKE.-Last Wednes-
day, Sheriff Pierce and Deputy Sheriff Byers
started from this place for Honey Lake Val
ley, having in their possession warrants f6r
the arrest Of John S. Ward and w. Hilr
Naileigh, appointees under Gov. Nye, of Ne
vada, and exercising the functions of County
Judge and Sheriff in Honey Lake Valley, OF
rather Roop County. They succeeded in ar
resting the parties, and held them in possess
sion for two days and nights, the late storm
preventing them from leaving the Valley.
An attempt to take Judge Ward from the
officers was made on Sunday night last by
five men, but they concluded that "discre-
ton was the better part of vaior," and left
for reinforcements. On Monday last, the off :
GERS started with the prisoners and several
witnesses, and had proceeded but few miles
when they were overtaken by posse of ciri-
zens of that Valley, headed by Gov. Isaac
Roop, and all armed. The rescuers then lev.
eled their guns at the officers and demanded
the release of the prisoners, but not before
the Governor received a forcible lesson g;vsn
him by Byers. Sheriff Pierce was some way
in advance with part of the company break
ing the trail, when word reached him of the
rescue. Byers remains at Honey Lake.
Sheriff Pierce intends summoning posse of
citizens and return Immediately, and prove
to the citizens of that place that law can be
carried out, and resistance to officers in dis
charge of their duties is no child's play"

TEHAMA County INDEBTEDNEss.-The re-
port of the Treasurer of Tehama county
shows the Indebtedness of that county, on the
goth inst, to be S4a. .s65 A. This does not
include the sum of $40, 900. county bonds,
which the Supervisors are authorized to issne
for the construction of the Humboldt road.
The tax levied on each one hundred dollars
is 50 25. Verify, the prospects of the tax
payers of Tchama county are not very fat
tering.
The total indebtedness of this county, we
are informed by the Treasurer, will not ex-
ceed $50 900 on the lst of March, and the
total tax levied is 50 10 on the one hundred
dollars, which makes fair showing in favor
Of Shasta county, as compared with Tehama
the debt of the former being S2e, 600 less
than the latter, and the tax Is cents less on
the hundred dollars. While the debt Of Te-
hama is increasing, our county debt is de-
ereasing. Let those of our citizens who are
elamoring to be attached b Tehama look at
the facts, as shown. by the figures of the Off
oial reports of each county, and then tell us
what they would gain by being attached ito
Tehama county.

A CnIP OF THE OLD BLocK.-At the Union
Society in Cambridge College, England, there
was recently public debate on American
affairs, in which son of Lord John Russell,
and a Mr.. Trevelyan. spoke against the
Union cause, and in support of the rebellion.
A son of Edward Everett, who is a student at
Cambridge, followed in defense ofhis country
and Governments, and an English clergyman,
who participated in the debate, writes =
after him got up young Everett Edward
Everett's sony who, by the bye, is considered
one of the most distinguished men in Cam
bridge, the whole house against him, but
cool and perfectly collected. He took Tre-
velyan's speech to pieces, point by point,
used him up bit by bit, till the whole house
was slowly turned in his favor, and be had it
all his own way. 1t was great success, and
marks him as one that will surely distinguish
himself sooner or later He will take his
degree in January, and will then come to
America Look out for him."

PEACE CIRcULARs.-It is said that the Fu-
sion Peace Democracy of this county are
distributing circulars for the purpose of or
ganizing Democratic clubs for effective op-
erations in. coming judicial election. Let
all Union men. who love their country better
than party, keep aloof from such organiza
tions, where they will be compelled to act
with men who denounce their country and
her institutions. and are in favor of letting
"our wayward sisters go in peace, " and want
to be "let alone," except when they are after
the votes of the people.

VALLANDIcHAx.-This traitor lately had
an appointment to speak in Baltimore, and
owing to circumstances over which he had nc
control, did not venture to raise his voice in
a city that on the 10Th of April 1861, vel.
coined the Massachusetts troops, on their way
to defend the national capital, by firing into
their ranks. The citizens of Maryland have
had taste of what treason has produced in
our land, and viii not listen to Democratic
leader who says he is for maintaining the
Constitution as it is" and at the same time
favors leaving New England "out in the
cold ~

ASSAULT ON PRIsoNER.-On Sunday
evening last, about mine O'Clock, an Indian
prisoner in the county Jail, confined on a
charge Of murder, was called to the grating
of his window by two Indians on the outside,
and by some means they got the prisoner S
arm through the grating and held him fast
whilethey stabbed him.with some sharp point
ed instrument in the arm, above the elbow,
and also inflicted slight wound in the lef
side. The prisoner states that they said they
wanted 10 kill. him, fer what cause is no
known

DIVISION OF THE CoUNTY.-On Tuesday
last Hon. I. j. Butler, Assemblyman from
Tehama county, introduced bill in the As
sembly, changing the boundary line between
Shasta and Tehama counties. We learn that
the county map has been forwarded to our re-
presentatives in the Legislature, maj king out
the proposed line, and that on Thursday
morning numerously signed remonstrances,
from various portions of the county, were
forwarded to Hon. j. N. Chapel, who will
present them in opposition to this pet scheme
of the people of Tehama. We have no fears
of this bill becoming law during the pre-
sent session.
The Shasta courier., 1863-02-28
Peace Democrats.

We daily hear the opponents of the Union
rarty, in this State, denounce our National
Administration for shs course it is pursuing
in putting down the monstfous rebellion that
has afflicted our country for the past two
wears, and charging the President with
violating the Constitution in almost every
leading measure he has seen fit to adopt to
punish traitors and maintain the Govern
ment. Thus far their opposition consists
only of fdenunciatinn no one of their leaders
has as yet proclaimed policy to be pursued
for the suppression Of the rebellion in a con-
stitutional manner, and all of their argu.
ments point to but one end, viz that peace
must be made and the war stopped. These
selfappointed interpreters of the Constitution
utterly ignore the right of the President and
his advisers TO declare what course shall be
pursued in conducting the war; and if you
ask one of these peace men what should be
done, his answer will be, ''recall the emanci-
patton proclamation and step making arbitra-
ry arrests; the people will then render their
cordial support to the war"
Can patriot, at such time as this, al
low any single act Of the Government, that
may conflict with his own ideas of rightsand
wrong, be an excuse for Withholding his sup
port to the proper authorities, who are en-
deavoring to save the country from ruin
We say no; and any man or party that will
allow their acts to be influenced by such
paltry motives, deserves to be denounced as
unfriendly to the country, and should not be
entr usted with any Office or position under
the Government. If they are not traitors in
fact, they are traitors per sc, AMI the course
they are pursuing is only calculated to
produce anarchy
The noble sentiments expressed by the
Hon. II. B. Wright, Democratic member of
Congress from Pennsylvania, on the 1lth of
January last, will find an echo in the heart
of every true patriot in the land, and shine
upon the pages of history. while those who
call fox dishonorable peace shall have
a memory as infamous and damnable as the
Cow boys of the Revolution"
The Shasta courier., 1863-02-28

A SLIGHT DIFFERENcE.-In times past the
Democratic party were in favor of building
up the nation by acquiring more territory,
and extending the Constitution over more Of
the North American continent. Latteriy
however, the leaders of this party are striving
to detach a number Of States, already belong
ing to the Union, to build up government
the corner stone Of which is human slavery.
Query. Have principles changed? or have
party leaders changed? Will some good old
jackson Democrat please answer this ques-
ton,
