CAN'T GET THEIR RIGHrs.-Tuesday night
we celebrated. Wednesday morning we met
a Copperhead whose whole energies have
heretofore been given to the holy cause of
securing to the rebels-or. rather, the South
their rights. He gave utterance to the
fear that that delectable people were about
to fail in accomplishing that object" they
were not going to get their rights Assur-
ing him that they would, unless the hemp
crop failed, we left him to his sad medita-

DIsGKAcEFuL.-Th Nevada Transcript
gives the particulars of a raid by the church
members at Moore's Flat, in that county,
on the District School House. 1t seems the
scholars had sung song that did not meet
with the appreciation of these pious Chris
tians, whereupon the Cody crew, who, it
school, with force entered upon the premises,
and denuded the building ofits roof, windows
and window shutters. and in the most Chris
tian like (?) manner left it untenable for edu-
cational purposes. If the Transcript will
favor us with the names of the leading
Christians in this movement we will forward
to each a leather medal and a printed copy

EXTRA SEssIoN.-Why put the State to the
expense of an extra session Of the Legisla-
ture, in order that the constitutional amend.
ment may be endorsed? The only reason
we have noticed among our exchanges
many of whom are discussing the question
is, that our incoming Legislature may not be
sufficiently loyal to carry it. If that be so,
then let it go by the board. Let California
be recorded as a State disloyal. We think
the incoming Legislature will give greater
majority than the existing one. If it does
not, why then we have only te say California
will be good State to emigrate from.

MILLvILLE MEETlNG.-Last week, IN no.
ticing that there would be meeting OF the
citizens of our county residing on the east
side of the river. we stated that the meeting
was for the purpose Of protecting their out
side stock ranges from being occupied by
persons driving in stock from the lower eoun-
ties. We were misnformed. The object was
to organize detective torce, and raise mo-
ney to make that force effective in bringing
to justice class of that community, or ada
cent, who have been preying upon any stock
that might be running ''around loose" with
out regard to marks and brands or ownership
The owners Of stock in that district have been
plundered most outrageously, and the course
they have taken to protect themselves, and
punish raiders inside the law, instead Of
resorting to the demoralizing code OF
Lynch" speaks well for that community.
The meeting adjourned after appointing a
committee to collect evidence against sus-
pected persons and present the same to the
next Grand Jnry, also committee to collect
money, by donation, to defray necessary ex.

BAD PoLIcY.-Roads out of the State, and
inducements to our citizens to travel them,
is the theme of the Red Bluff independent
Nearly every issue is filled up with pufs and
blo,os Of the superior inducements offered by
some road out. Reading it induces the theory
that that town and the State has asuperfiuity
of population, and that it is discharging a
labor of love in getting rid of the white por-
ton, to make room for Cinnamon, who can
live in greater numbers in less space. For
the petty qualification of getting road trav
eled, it would deplete the State of its indus
trious population by locating five acres of
moonshine three or four hundred miles away,
building road to it, and then recommend
everybody to travel it. Better exercise your
talent, Mr.. Independent. in finding induce
ments for people to stay at home.

A Degenerate Press.

1t Is remarkable with what uniformity the
Copperhead presses of the country haveioined
in one general attack on christianity. They
seem to vie with each other in pouring ou,
their vile vituperations against not only the
churches of the land. but also against the
ministers of every Protestant denomination.
They cannot descend low enough into the
depths of iniquity to find expressions of guile
and contempt to satisfy their own besotted
and brutal spirits in venting forth their spleen.
There is not sanctuary in the land but what,
to them, is polluted. The whole system Of
but corruption in all the religious influence in
the country. They labor to assassinate and
destroy the influence of loyal preachers. They
villifv, traduce and belle their names. They
generate minds are susceptible of originating.
Why all this2 Simply because they stand up
for truth, and right, and liberty, and fearless
" assert that s'God has made of one blood all
the nations OF the earth, and further, be-
cause they are potent power in community
to aid in the formation of correct ideas of free
government and free religion. Going forth
thus armed with the truth, they become ter
ror to evil doers, and not unfrequently do
these misanthropes feel the power of their
influence. And writhing beneath the scourge
which their treason merits, they raise the pit
eous howl of abolition preachers, ard from
the brothel and the grog- shops, stepped in in
iquity, and under the influence of sod corn aud
arsenic, they enter their sanctum TO write an
editorial for their paper, and behold, when
issued it is q lecture on pufe christianity for
the benefit of the clergy. How appropriate
Like Beelzebnb, Sr., lecturing Gabriel. The
truth is that these men are not only corrupt.
but they are infdels at heart, and are pos
sessed with an inherent hatred to all that is
good. Despoiled of their power, lost to
character. graYitating downward, living amid
the poisonous civilizations of their own putrid
forms, their chief ambition eliminate in per-
sonal attacks upon that class of men that are,
and have been true to God and loyal to the
country. The lamented Lincoln said that he
was thankful to God for giving to the coun-
try the churches in the hour of danger.
And we say that we are profoundly grateful
to God for loyal ministry that will stand up
thus fearlessly for the right. God and the peo-
pie will vindicate you.

Plenty Of Timey

No hurry, boys. Don't get excited over
the political issues of the age. Precipitation
unduly brought about-brought about the late
rebellion. 1t proved to be red preciptate.
Therefore, don't precipitate; wait until the
Johnny Copperheads come up to the works.
Then don't expose yourselves needlessly, but
give 'em hard-tack. Don't waste your am
munition. I'm talking now to the survivors
of yicksburg, Red River, Atlanta, Shiloh,
&c., &c. The Johnny Cops want to draw
our fire and make US disclose our position
Don't do it. Let your own ideas of right and
justice go to work, and they will have made
you a strong fortifcation when the battle is to
be fought You know down there In Georgia
and Tennessee every regiment and every
company was expected to build works in it's
own front, but to connect them at the right
and left. So it is now; fortify your own front
and connect with your right and left neigh
bors' and the whole will form line which
the Cops can't break anywhere.
Remember, now, you who are on picket,
and don't be deceived by the Cops coming up
in our uniform. You know their tricks.
Stay behind your works, unless you are or
dered forward on the skirmish line
To compel men to live among us, under
our Government, without being allowed to
say yea and nay, is sJarery; and remember
there is that '.irrepressible conflict still GO
ing on ''between Freedom and Slavery" and
it wiu go on SO long as might attempts to
make right
Don't grumble at battalion and dress parade
and inspections and reviews, but be ready al
ways to do your duty under the laws of the
land and the dictates Of your conscience.

are always wrongs to combat and rights to
