We are advised by persons recently from Yreka
that George Greathouse-brother of that eminent
Young man. Ridgely Greathouse-who con-
yicted of piracy and breaking his parol at San
Francisco. and from there sent, at Uncle Sam $
expense, to Fort Lafayette, from whence he es-
capped is now lying around loose in the north
ern part of this county, fugitive from justice,
there being a warrant out for his arrest on Il
charge of treason Poor George We knew him
when good men sought him for his virtues, real
or supposed, that they might grasp his hand in
friendship, smile and bid him God speed as he
passed through town. Now how changed !
Good men shun him they would leper, and
all because he would have torn the country of
his birth from the map of the world. A mere
trihe in lS60-but in 1865 the thing is different
Now, talking treason and @ free speech have
different meanings in the eye of the law.-Shasta

TIE UNION PARrY.-Thc Bee, speaking of the

Union party primaries says:
We scout anything like Il schism in the Union
party at this hour. There is no need of it. We
must hold together, and make the Union party
of California an exception to the general rule,
that as political parties aggregated power They
bred corruption within themselves. If men OF
Coppcrhead antecedcnts wish to come into the
ranks and labor by orr side, we cannot well re-
fuse their assistance, though we must take care
tIItt they are not placed in any position of trust
and responsibility. OF course. we cannot go
back now that the war is over. to the st{fu quo
ate beIl,fm nor draw the old party lines of Re
