LOOK OUT.-Citizen wearers of soldiers clothing
should look out, not to be found encased with uncle
Sans apparel. We notice by the Oregon exchanges
that the military authorities at Dales Portland and
elsewhere among other duties, are industrousy en-
gagged in abruptly accosting without the ceremony of
an Introduction, strangers-c -ctizens-who happen to
be attred in articles of clothing such as are pre-
scribed, by army regulations, for the soldiers now
serving Volunteers on this coast and as uncere-
moniously disrobing them of the same. large num-
Der of our upcountry citizens in possession of
"soldier overcoats," obtained by some 'hookn or
crook in the early settlement of the valley. These
coats never out, that any body aware Of and
they are traded off and passed around from one to
another until no enc has the remotest idea as to
who first put the coat in circulation But it is long
''Lane'' that has no turn and finally some one has
to yield to the force Of circumstances and give his
'so'ger coat up to the Government perhaps on
bitter, cold day] though he may have become pos
sessed of it in an honorable way. Fortunately we
have no 'so'ger overcoat, nor any other kind, and
think ourselves lucky in the matter. Persons who
are in possession of blue coats and brass buttons
would do well to voluntarily turn them over to the
first government they find walking around.
voluntary act of this kind would have a spleadid ap-
pearance Of loyalty, and at the same time they would
be helping the government, and save themselves per-
haps, the modification of being forced to give up
wearing apparel in the presence of an admiring au-
dence.

WELL PUT.=The Washington CORES
pOndent of the New York Tribuhe says that
the Administration has determined not to
retain any officer in the army whose views
on the war question are not in cons0nahce
with its own. The Plaeer7ille Democrat
pertinently asks, how about the soldiers
the rank and file Are they to be discharged,
too, if they don't agree with the Admins
tration? Are only those to be drafted
"whose views on the war question are in
consonance with" the Administration Red
Bluff Beacon
The above may explain why Rosecrans
was removed He denies that there is any
truth in the charges which were put in cir
culation against him, and there is bare
possibility that this "consonance" policy
has been adopted, though we are unwilling
to believe the Administration has carried
its partizan views to that length If it were
possible for the Administration to go thus
far to carry out such a peculiar General
policy, it would then be an easy matter to
account for the soldier "consonance" on the
principle that they are supposed to stand
for so many Sheep and when the leaders of
the flock are started in certan direction
the whole 'capoodle' will follow, or break
their necks trying. There are some very
good reasons which will go far to contradict
the speculatons that are just now rife in
the newspaper world that the removal of
prominent officers from the Federal armies
is 'political move;" and among these, can
be cited the fact that General Schofeld has
not been removed from his department, and
he is said to be conservative" and there
fore not in consonance with the speculation.
Another reason may be given, that published
reports of Rosecrans' views have been widely
circulated through the press, in which he
has been made to endorse all the principal
measures of the Administration, and among
these, the enlisting of negroes for the Fede-
raj army and the emancipation policy. Put
ting these things together, impartially, we
cannot infer that the Administration has
adopted policy to exclude and remove con
servatiyes from the army. As to Rosecrans,
who has had the confidence of the soldiers
under his command, and who has almost uni
versally been looked upon as an officer second
to none in the United States, he will undoubt-
edly be found ere long again in active service,
his reputation for good generalship sustained,
fighting the armed hosts of the rebellion and
having the confidence of the friends of the
Union. 4g.t tr

THE PACIFIC RAILRoAD,-The allabsorbing topic
during the past decade, the Pacific Railroad-which
has engaged the closest study of engineering minds
both on the Atlantic and Pacific slopes-we are more
than pleased tosee is at last being brought down to
apraetea reality By the Presidents signature, the
Bill fora Pacific Railroad was made valid July 1st,
lS62-a little more than sixteen months ago Since
that date, the California Central Railroad Company,
with that indomitable energy and enterprise which
is characteristic of Calfornians have left no stone
unturned to give the provisions of the bill practical
shape, so far concerns the State of California.
The company have obtained subscriptions to the
stock of nearly million of dollars. The iron and
rolling stock for seventy miles OF the road is said to
have been purchased in the Atlantic States Some
seventy-fve miles of the road have been surveyed
and located and thirty miles contracted for; egh-
teen miles ready for the laying of the iron,
and will probably be in condition to receive the COM
ing of the iron horse not later than the lst of De-
cember; the other twelve miles will be finished by
January, 1864, so that during the coming winter
will be running for the distance of thirty miles,
We congratulate our brethren of California upon the
happy auspices under which their section of the line
has been commenced and also the thrifty people of
bleeding Kansas for the energy that is being dis
played upon the work running westwardly, and
hope the day will be on hand very when we can
take weeks ride to pay respects to old friends
in the east. The Portland Times noticing the sue
cessive steps that have been taken in the Inaugural
ton of the Pacific Railroad enterprise concludes the
article follows:
Thus much has in one year been accomplished
on our own side of the continent, while the Union
Pacific Railroad Company, which is building the line
westerly from Kansas, although little behind their
friends of the California Central in laying down rails
are far from being idle 1t is stated that the entire
stock has been subscribed, the company organized,
and much of the grading and other work completed
and there is little doubt that the work Of ayirg down
the track will soon be commenced. With the work
thus rapidly progressing at both ends of the line it
will be but short period till the people of this coast
as well as those of the Atlantic will begin to expert
ence the benefits arising from this great national en-
terprise"

No ELECTION. petition which was
drawn up for presentation to the commission
ers at their late session, praying for the is
suance of a proclamation of election for a
councilman in the place of Hon. Marion
Moore, failed to find its way into Court, and
consequently there was no order for an cleo
ton made-the Commissioners preferring
not to take the responsibility wholly upon
themselves of creating an expense to the
county of four or five hundred dollars for
such an election. We doubt very much
that councilman would be worth that sum
