FRoN THE DESERT DIsIRIcT.-Mr. ]. H.
Flack, who has just returned from this dis
trict, gives the Bulletin very glowing ac-
count Of its extent and richness. He states
that he has located about twenty thousand
feet in different portions Of it, such as the
Lake View, Constitution, Enterprise and
CITY Lodges, rock from all Of which is now on
the road TO this city, for the purpose Of being
properly tested in some Of the mills. Mr..
Flack informs us that rock from these claims,
pounded in a hand-mortar, Welded from
81 so to s. per pound in gold. Desert City
Is becoming quite place already, owing to
the number Of people flocking into it frum all
quarters. A map of the town is now being
made by draughtsman IN this city. Though
but one month old, it boasts Of several houses,
with more going up and materials for others
on the road. A Mr.. Dewitt has established
hay yard and butchers market there, and
his corral is always full Of horses belonging
to persons paving flying visit to the really
rich dirQinrs of the desert. Mr.. Flack says
that those who contemplate paying visit
! to this place had better take their provisions
along with them, or they might fare rather
roughly, as owing to the great number Of
people hocking there, grub IS quite an item.
What Is supposed to be very extensive coal
field has been discovered in the Desert dis
trict within few days. One company has
located about ,en thousand acres Of it, and
have men employed in prospecting their
claim. some of the coal from which may be
expected in town in few days. Other COM
panies are looking out for water privileges,
and have hands employed in sinking wells in
| different places around the site of Desert
City. Labor is in considerable demand al
Eve dollars per day. There is no mill there
yet, but at Bateman's, about eight miles from
the city, there is an arastra- There is water
| within two miles of the city, which contains
large percentage Of salt, great advantage
in working the ores from the mines, but
which renders it unfit for domestic purposes,
Desert City is located about twenty-five miles
north of Ragtown. When we see the ore
| and coal from this new district, now on the
way here, we shall be better able to give an
opinion Of their value than we can upon mere
description Of them.

N,r-vvs ~ w,sutxeroy-The sacra-

MATTERS AT WAsHINeTON.-The Sacra-
mento Union thus sums up the recent news
from Washington: McDougal still lives, and
has introduced resolution in the Senate
again ON the French invasion of Mexico.
Lik, the other Copperheads in Congress, ne
would like, if he could, to embarrass the Ad-
ministration-to bring forward some measure
which would relieve the military pressure ON
the rebel Democrats Of the South. de Will
fail in his object. There is a deep feeling in
the United States on that subject, and at the
proper time il will manifest itself. That
time will not arrive until the rebellion is put
down. Senator Lanes project for colonizing
Western Texas with the freemeu of the South
and their families we rather like. The first
year of the war we suggested that, SO infa-
nous was the conduct Of Texas towards the
National Government, it would be just re-
tribution to take possession of her territory
and fill it with such slaves as the war might
set free in the rebel States. II would place
them between the white settlements OF the
Union and Mexico. In the latter nation no
prejudice against color exists, and If so dis
posed the negroes could emigrate to Mexico.
It is stated by the telegraph that the Govern
ment has about sixty thousand negroes under
arms, and as many more employed in other
capacities. This would give 1000 as the
number of negroes in its employ. 1t is fur
Their stated that since the war opened half a
million of slaves have been liberated. This
number would furnish population for
State west of the Colorado greater than that
of California. The number Of slaves liberia
ted is greater than the population of Califor-
MIA and Nevada united. This furnishes US
pretty fair illustration Of the protection the
rebellion has extended to the institution Of
slavery. A few years more Of such protec-
ton and the institution will be among the
things that once existed.

THE RUGBEAR.

When VIM. N. Stewart picked up his
movesble chattels in Nevada, CAL, and
MIGRATED to this sagebrush country, he
probably never. for one brief moment,
dreamed of what a great man he was des-
tined one day to become in the land. . Mr..
Stewart is fair lawyer, and by follow
ing out the now nearly obsolete plan of
minding his own business, has accumu-
lated much hcre, and high position at
the bar. Having some pecuniary inter-
est in the conduct of the political affairs of
the country, he has had the wisdom to at
tend somewhat to the defense and protec-
ton of those interests. His views Of pol
lev have CHANGED to be at variance with
those entertained BY certain other parties,
and in exercising his undoubted right OF
expressing his preference as to who should
be his rulers, he seems to have lost sight
of the fact that Messrs. Church, Hannah,
Fitch, Brosnan s Co. were entitled to all
the offices in the State, and that without
those gentlemen at the head of affairs
there could be no State. Behold, then,
Bill Stewart transmogriHed into a great
ogre and bugbear to scare small school
boys and denizens Of hay yards withal.
The people of this Territory are informed
that in their present state of imbecility
and ignorance, they are incapable ofcoping
with the Vaccinations Of this political
Moloch. They must wait a while until
he emigrates hence or dies of old age, and
the lesser luminaries, in and about the
Virginia Union Office are enabled to shine
and glimmer, and glimmer and shine,
through the fog of popular idiocy. Then,
then, and not till then, will these sufferers
from "Bill Stewart on the brain" permit
the people to adopt State Government.

Poor CouNsELLoR.-The Aurora Times
INDUCES in criticisms upon the course
pursued by this paper among others which
favor the adoption of the Constitution.
The opinions of that paper are matter Of
little moment to any body IN the world,
and favorable opinion of this paper, ex-
pressed in its columns, would excite our
apprehensions that some unintentional
evil thing had found its way into ours.
A paper, the feeble energies of which are
directed to seditious attacks upon the
Government, and the aid and comfort OF
the nations enemies, is neither critic nor
a counsellor deserving of any attention
from the press OF the people.

An OUTSIDE OPINIoN.-We find the fol-
lowing sensible and truthful remarks in the
San Francisco Journal" 1t is conceded on
all hands that at present Nevada is thorough
" loyal, and that it is likely to remain so
until it is overrun with traitors and refugees
from the East, which may speedily take
place. It may be that Union men enough
may be found opposed to the Constitution to
defeat it; If so, they will soon have cause to
regret the act. Whatever may be the feeling
of Union men in Nevada, we know that nine
thousand nine hundred and ninety out Of
every ten thousand Union men, outside OF
Nevada, desire the adoption of the new Con-
stitution. It is vastly important to the entire
Pacific coast, and particularly important TO
the people Of that Territory, that they be
represented in the United States Senate,
especially should Congress attempt to legis-
late as to the mines. With Nevada admit
ted as a State, the mining States would then
have a representation of six in the Senate,
which would be a pretty sure guarantee
against unfriendly legislation. The material
as well as political interests Of the Territory,
imperatiyely demand the adoption Of the
Constitution and the formation Of State
Government. We are astonished TO learn BY
our exchanges, that some whom we have
heretofore regarded as sound Union men. as
well as sagacious, are using their influence
against it. We fear there is too much pas
sion and ambition mixed up with this oppo-
sition."

DEMOCRATIC MovEMBNr.-The aiders ant

DEMOCRATIC MovEMBNT.-The aiders and
abettors of rebellion in Washington, who
call themselves conservative Democratic
members of Congress, the telegraph says,
have held meeting and adopted a set Of res
olutions. Those resolutions, we suppose, are
presented as containing the principles Of
the Confederate Democratic party. They
were intended, evidently, to embarrass the
Government as much as possible. They are
of the same character of other move
ments made by the anti-war and semi-rcbcl
party in the loyal States. 1t would be diff
cult to imagine anything more contemplate
than that resolution about paying the sailors
and soldiers in specie. Those patriots have
asked nothing of the kind from the Govern
ment, and were they disposed to do so the
Democratic sympathizers with the rebellion
in Congress would be the last men to whom
the soldiers in the army and the sailors Of
the navy would apply for aid in the premises.
To make them preferred creditors would en-
barrass the Administration, which is rea-
son why Copperhead would advocate such
a proposition. 1t is, too, demagogue move,
which is another reason for supporting 1t.
They want now to get the credit of advocat-
ing such a measure for the benefit of soldiers
and sailors, though it is notorious that they
have been sneering at and ridiculing them,
and by their course as partisans caused the
war to be protracted for months if not years.
If they wanted to raise the pay of soldiers
and sailors, instead of playing the dema-
gogue, why did they not propose to increase
It in a manly way, and not talk about Con-
suls receiving species But if those resolu-
tons all which the authors can bring against
the Administration, they will make misera-
Bile show before the country. The people
will point to them as unprincipled dema-
gogues, who would embarrass the Govern
ment if they could, because by so doing they
could furnish aid and comfort to Southern
rebelS.-Sac. Union.

NEVADA THEN AND Nova correspond
ent, says the Stockton Independent, sends us
the following extract from an old newspaper,
of August 18th, 1858, concerning Nevada
Territory. The reader will agree with him
that the present condition Of that Territory,
with its 10000 inhabitants and its four or
five daily newspapers, contrasts strangely
with the view presented in the extract which
is nevertheless prophetic: I'VE have a let
ter from James NJ. Crane, Congressional
agent at Washington, for the people Of Car
SON and all the valleys which are embraced
within the high title, " Territory Of Nevada"
The bill in Congress to organize Terrific
rial Government was put aside as early BUSH
ness of next session. Mr.. Crane will remain
Eastward until after the winter meeting Of
Congress, and strive gain for the inhabi-
tants of the Great Basin. Some have en-
deayored to ridicule the proposition which
Mr.. Crane has in advocacy; we are differ
emily disposed, being satisfied that those east
ern slope and summit valleys, extending even
to Sierra Valley, will, before long, hold a
large industrial population, whose resources
will be incompatible, in the promise of wealth
and happiness.

A VIGILANCE CAsE.-The following par
ticulars Of the late execution in Monterey by
n Vigilance Committee are from the Pajaro
Times of January 9th: There was quite an
excitement in Monterey on Wednesday last,
occasioned by an assault to kill, and the
hanging of the assassin BY vigilance COM
mittce. From all we can learn, the follow
ing are the facts Of the case: John Martin,
of Carmelo, was coming into Monterey to
attend the Grand Jury then in session, and
when near the town was shot by an Indian
named Gregoria. There was no quarrel be-
tween them, nor had either ever seen the
other before; and the only reason Gregoria
gave for shooting Martin was that he felt
like killing somebody, and he would have
shot any other man who might have been
passing at the time. The Indian, who was
immediately caught, was brought into JUS
tice'sSGourt for examination. During the
investigation a large crowd assembled in the
streets, andall the stores were closed. The
Americans, armed and excited, determined
to hang the Indian. The Cslifornians, alike
armed and excited, opposed the proposition
to hang, and general fight took place, in
which several were hurt, but nobody killed.
The Indian was hung a few hours after the
excitement subsidized. Martin is still living
but it is thought the wound will prove fatal.
