THE Snow AT REESE.-The RereiHe of Thurs
day last says: We doubt If there ever was a
fall of snow or rain universally welcomed as
was the one we were blest with during Monday
and Tuesday last. Still there were no great ap-
prehensions felt from the drought, as we depend
upon our distant friends of California and Salt
Lake TO supply us with the necessities of life, but
this will insure grass and hay for the necessary
animals of domestic economy, enabling inmi.
grants and prospectors to travel and explore the
country, and furnish abundance Of water for
milling and other purposes. Following our beau
tiful aud open winter with SO pleasant storm
when so much needed, and just nj the time when
it can Inconvenience no one. it is certainly an &C.
currence for which every enc should be, and I'm
doubtedly are, extremely grateful The snow on
Tuesday morning was about seven inches in
depth in such places where il had melted the least
and the rain and snow OF that day, we think, added
sufficient to render the entire full equivalent TO
about two inches Of rain-a very good fall.

A Gloomy Picture.

The Richmond Wing, of recent date,
draws the following gloomy picture Of affairs
in rebeldom. Speaking of the "new and
heroic race that is the Southern chivalry,
who claimed to be higher type OF civiliza-
ton than the vile Yankees Of the North-the
Wing says :" it has disappeared as suddenly
AZ it appeared; the once noble population Of
the South has become extinct" and contin-
ues in the following respondent strain:
Patriotism is dead, corruption and fraud stalk
in high places the finances are in ruins; food ia
nearly exhausted; extortion and speculation rule
supreme; not a particle of craftsmanship Is dis
played; Congress has gone mad; civil liberty Is
threatened az the hands Of the friends OF the Chief
Magistrate; civil ability has persisted; military
talent is rapidly waning; and, what is worse than
ali. the people are begrudging food and clothing
10 their sous who are sighting, and have given
themselves up, the men to drinking and greed Of
gain, and the. women to paint and exposure OF
their persons
Forney's Var Press, from which we clip
the foregoing, says: ~
Mere il. indeed, handful Of bitter ashes, which
,he war has raked down from the smouldering
hre of Southern brsyado.

ANOTHER SLASH FROM TANEY

The Marysville appeal still continues to
dish up, for the delectation of its Copperhead
neighbor, choice tit-bits from the ancient
speeches Of Roger B. fancy, who, at a later
day, declared from his lofty seat on the bench
Of the Supreme Court, that "a negro has no
rights which a white man is bound to respect"
The Express having denied the authenticity
Of the quotations heretofore made the
Appeal, most provokinsly, declines bo;hering
itself about the proof, but continues to quote
further from the same speech, and gives in
its number of Friday last, the following addi-
tional extract from fancy:
There is no law that forbils us 10 speak Of
slavery Us we think nf IT, Any man has right
10 publish his opinions on that subject when lie
pleascs 1t is subject "i national concern and
nv at all times be freely discussed. Mr.. C. did
quote the language of our grca; Act of National
Independence. and insisted on the principles con.
tanned in that vrnerated instrument. lie did re-
buks thoS. masters who. in the exercise of pow
er. are deaf to the calls Of humanity; and he
warned them OF the evils they may bring upon
themselves Heidi speak with adherence "fthOse
reptiles who live By trading in human flesh. and
enrich themselves by tearing the husband from
the wife, the infant from the bosom OF It's mother;
and this am instructed is the head and front OF
his offending. Shall content myself with saying
he had right TO say this that there is no law 10
punish him! 30 far is he from being the object Of
punishment in any form of proceedings that we
are prepared TO maintain the same principles. and
TO use If necessary, the same language here IN the
temple of Justice and in those who are the minis
tiers of the law
OF verify, Honest Roger did most deci-
dedly change his tune in the latter day, when
the case of bred came up for adjudication.
He was probably young and foolish when he
spoke as above, in the courts of Maryland,
and only arrived at years of discretion at an
age, when most men, distrusting their judg-
ment, retire from public stations, and quit
the arena of politics to mediate upon higher
and hOlier things.

The Union State Convention of California,
held for the purpose Of elccting ten delegates
to the National Union Convention, conclud-
ed their laborS on Friday last. The dele
gates were appointed, two from each Con-
greSsional District, and four at large. Ten
alternate delegates were also elected. There
was a lively contest among the candidates,
which resulted rs follows:

the selection and damns the delegates with
faint eulogy, in the following strain;

THE MAIL SAND THE PIONEER
STAGE COMPANY.

In our issue of Friday last we commented
with some severity upon the manner in which
the people of Gold Hill were treated with re-
gard to the mails. We attributed the blame
almost exclusively to the Pioneer Stage Com.
pany; the information which we had received
from persons who ought to know all about
the matter, justifying us in doing so. Our
article has elected the following pointed let
ter from Mr.. Mcl.ane, agent of the Pioneer
Company;
PLACERyILLE OFFICE. March 81. ls6i.

which does great Injustice TO the Pioneer stage

Pioneer siagc Company are not the contractors for
the mail route from Carson City to Virginia, nor

tract for such service let by the Department at

has been by the Pos;mastcTS ut Carson aud Nir.

As We stated above, We deemed our infor-
nation reliable, and published what we be-
lievcd to be the facts. II we were wrong, we
regret it, and accordingly give the Pioneer
Company the full benefit of Mr.. McLanc'S
letter, and are glad that our reference to the
matter has aroused degree of attention
which may possibly result in reform of ex-
listing abuses. The blame rests somewhere,
and the fault can be amended If those whose
duty it is, so will it. Ii it be the Postmaster
at Carson, he should send our mail in Sc
parate bag, that might be left and taken away
by the passing stage. As to "what the Pho
neer Company have done TO ourselves is
neither here nor there. They have done
nothing to us individually. We have Suf-
fercd. in common with the balance of the
community, from gross mismanagement 81
the mails, and have perfect right to con
denim whoever may be TO blame in the mat
ter. We shall try and trace out the delin-
quent, and when we have nailed him to dead
certainty, we will make it mighty hot for
him.
