GovERNoR.-The Idaho Statesman, processes
to have reliable news to the effect that W. Fl.
Wallace has been appointed Governor of Idaho,
and that the old functionary is on his way, and
is expected soon to arrive at Boise City, The
Statesman appears to be delighted with the ap-
appointment. Wallace is lucky dog, and it
seems to be no trick at all for him to get an ap-
pointment whenever be desires one The
"cheek' of these politicians is of the hardest
description. But little while ago, Wallace
was repudated and scoffed at by the people OF
Idaho Territory, now he is their Governor
Perhaps he will be able to explain all about that
Fort Laramie fraud now, and it may be he will
pay the men the honest dues he owes them for
carrying his proclamations over the Territory
issued while he was Governor of the Territory
two or three years ago.

WIDER AND BETTER-The buildings now be-
Bros corner, are put back on the line Of the
City survey. This will make that portion of
Main wider between the buildings by from
fifteen to twenty feet than il was before the late
fire. In case fire should ever again break out
in that portion of the town there will be little
danger of the flames extending from one side of
the street to the other Another improvement
will be in the sidewalks. They will be ten feet
in width and of uniform hight from the
ground. This will abolish the old order of ups
and downs and break-neck places that were the
leading features of the old walks.

A CHANCE TO EooNoMIzE.-The County Com
missioners are paying forty dollars per month
rent for the use Of the building now occupied
for Court House. This is $40 per month less,
and $24O per year less than was paid for the
building recently occupied for the same purpo-
ses. We understand that the building now oc-
cupied can be rented by and for the uses of the
County for either the term ftwO or three years.
at the rate of SAC per month. If rented for
three years it would save the county the snug
sum of $72O-assuming that the the county
should still incline to get a more costly estab-
lishment and pay SEQ per month, as formerly.
$50 per month is a heavy rent to pay for a
county that is burthened with debt. Look at
it, $50 per month for three years amounts to the
sum of two thousand one hundred and sixty
dollars Enough to build better Court House
than the county has ever been furnished. The
county can do what she pleases-she is old
enough to know herself, and perhspst's The think
she do"-but if she ever expects to get out of
debt she must commence to economic and f.
nancier better. 1t may be that suitable build
ing can be rented for less than SAC per month,
or perhaps some taxpayer might suggest still
more economical way of proceeding; if so, let
him talk it out through the columns of the
STATESMAN, or forever after hold his peace.
A UNION FIeHT.-A month or two ago the
California Express predicted that the Union par
ty in that State were bound to fight. The pre-
dction has been verified. The Union party af-
ter a spirited. quarrel of several weeks, have
fought The battle came off at Sacramento, on
the 28th ult in the county convention. The
participants in the fight were long and short
haired politicians assisted by muscular jay
hawkers and bushwhackers, with a corps of
shoulder -hitters and roughs to lead off in the
scrmmage. After brief contest, in which a
large number were bruised and bushwhacked
on the latest and most approved plan the Longs
retreated in disorder, leaving the Shorts mas
ters of the field and convention The Longs
claim that they had the largest army, but ac-
knowledge that the Shorts had all the advan-
tage in muscle and disposition of forces, and
for these reasons the majority were forced to
retire from the convention and set up for them
selves. The two factions held separate conven-
tions, made their platforms and nominated their
candidates, and are now uncompromising enc
mics. The Sacramento Union has lost its high
toned composure and gives an account of the
disgraceful fight "in disgusting detail" 1t says
"there is no principle of national policy in
volved. There is no disposition of leaders to
return to the associations they abandoned up-
der the pressure of the war that'will suffice to
explain the matter, for the clique to which we
refer comprises old Republicans as well as quon-
dam Democrats. The fight is simply for office.
The Governor wishes to occupy seat in the
United States Senate Conness, Redding &
Co. want to rule the State" A most devoted
set of patriots, to be sure--a free fight among
the loyal place-hunters for spoils. For full par
ticulars, see the Sacramento Union and Marys-
vile Appeal.

The New York News and the New York

The New York News and the New York
World, are out in favor of Negro suffrage.
1t seems to be game of "policy" with these
journals. They look upon negro suffrage
as a measure that will be inevitably forced
upon the South by the federal Abolitionists
of the North, and accepting this situation
of things as a fixed fact, they would en-
deavor to be radical AbolitionistS too, with
the view of controlling the anticipated Ne
gro vote, and thus secure that vote to the
Democratic party. There is little doubt
but these so-called democratic papers will
be repudiated by the party, for what differ
ence could it make with Democrats whether
Abolitionists should secure the Negro the
right of suffrage or whether that scheme
should be inaugurated by the Democratic
party? The end attained would be the
same whichever might be the dominant par
ty, and why not let the original Abolition
party have all of either the glory or shame,
as the case might be, of the adoption Of
its long cherished measure? When it
comes to giving the Democratic party over
to to do the work of seheming to secure the
adoption of the cherished and lifelong prin-
ciples of Obolitionism, then the democrats
who through good and evil report had stood
steadfast by their principles, if they should
cast their influence with either faction,
would throw it in favor of the genuine abo-
lition faction. But the occasion to make
a choice between evils of this kind is not
likely to arise very soon. A sum of money
has probably been distributed in judicious
quarters by the fanatics and Negro philan
thrOpists of the Sumner-Phillips faction =
