ED. GOLD HILL NEws-DEAR SIR:
am authorised BY His Imperial Majesty
Norton l., Emperor Of the U. S. & +. L. 10
thank YOU in the kindest and most conue-
scending manner for your PromPtness In
publishing his last decree on the barley CUES
ton. His Majesty desires me to say 'ns'
YOU are an adobe Of the genuine star ofanu'
and he trusts you may live until his nnah'e'
are 90 enlarged that he may be able 10 pay
you handsomely. I sincerely hope you may
He kindly offered me his draft on the Ma
tionai Treasury at Washington for couple
Of millions, but as they would almost GER
tainly pay it in greenbacks, IL AZ all ue,
clined to take the risk until hear from you
on the subject. Shall I chance it, or trust TO
the honor Of His Majesty? He is not aVerse
to payine reasonable interest il you wait
until he has the ready cash on hand. lou
shall have more proclamations from MIN 10
publish. Emight have secured you to some
position AZ organ Of the Empire Of Maximil,

| from Norton of more consequence, ana more
likely IN confer honor and emoluments 10 the
future. Time will, believe, justify my con-
illusions. We shall see.
SWEAR EN- AND LET EN- CO.
That is the motto nowadays. 1t does
seem strange to an outsider, that every &C.
cused secession scoundrel who comes before
Judge Hoffman, Of the U. S. District Court,
should be set at liberty 80 easily. We all
know how the Chapman pirates were released
| BY him through 4 forced INSTRUMENTATION OF
| President Lincoln's Amnesty Proclamation,
and now the whole cut-throat gang OF exuit-
ers over the murder Of Abraham Llacon,
even those who fred on the United states
troops at Green Valley, Solano county, nav
ing been turned over to.the civil autnorities
at the request nf prominent eitlzens oy zen
eral Mcdowell, are invited to take tne
oath and go unwhipped Of justice. Ano
tunateIy, the case Of the Hogg.Salvador pi.
| rates was before military tribunal already,
or they would undoubtedly have gone with
| the rest. am, rs you know, not one OF the
"howlers who stay at home in safety and
| do nothing but demand uneeasing slaughter
and oceans Of blood, but it really seems to me
that some examples should be made to teach
these sympAthizers with assassination, trea
son, unutterable crime, that We have gov
eminent which must be respected, and that
Justice has not become a mere tradition OF
the mast. With the exception oil. half dog
en- men sent to the chain-gang from our po-
lice and county courts, not a single exulter
over the assassination OF the Nations mar
tyr President, a. open, active traitor, has re-
ceiyed even the Elightest punishment at the
hands Of San Francisco Court, abundant
az has been the material to work upon.
THE MEXICAN MIDDLE.
Up to the date of my last letter to the
News, the members Of the Brontes Expe-
ditioa lived in hope Of being sent off to the
southern part Of California at least, through
the management Of "U. S. Marshal Duff
field Of Arizona" ~ he is called, although
he has seen precious little Of the Territory
which he claims to represent for the last year
at least, but his promises have proved worth
less 20 far, and the boys have lost all faith in
him, prououncing him an arrant old hum.

Diego on the Brother Jonathan or Pacific as
steerage or deck passengers, they to furnish
their own grub. He was Informed what the
fare would be, paid IN advance IN Sohd cash,
and left. When next spoken to on the sub
ject, he said " the boys were not ready to Co."
The U. s. Grand Jury refused to hnd bill

to Trial. But the Mexicai complications
only begun here. l wrote you some time
since that the brave General Gaspar Sanchez
Ochoa had arrived here with large sum in
Mexican bonds, for the payment Of which
the whole resources Of the Nepublic, and
esbecially the proceeds Of the mines OF So
nora, Sinaloa and Colima, were pledged.
These bonds were to be negotiated here for
certain proposals, in aid OF the Liberal cause,
and so great is the sympathy Of our people
for the cause Of Freedom in America that
considerable sum would have been realized

attendants and hangers-on, for purposes only
to be inferred, Published the assertion that
he (Vega) was not superseded, and that he
had the authority to raise the loan, and no
one else. To this, Consul Godoy, who is
finished gentleman and true patriot, if one
lives, replies BY stating the facts as to the
claims Of Vega and De Zaldo, to which the
latter reply, reiterGting their .claims, though
