SATISFACTORY AND ExPEDITIoUs.-1n con.
formity with duty and time honored usage. a
committee from the Grand Jury, appointed
for the purpose, on Thursday last waited on
cur County Treasurer to examine his book
accounts, &C., that by theirxeport the people
of the county might know that an honest and
efficient man held that position. The off
cial, with that suavity of manner for which
he is so justly celebrated. invited the com.
mittee t., an examination of his neatly kept
books After careful and critical examina-
tion pertaining to the financial condition of
the county, consuming therein just five naia-
utes. the committee declared the " county
safe" and took their leave, highly pleased
with the attention shown them. Another
argument in favor of the Grand Jury system.
No citizen Of this county doubts for mo-
ment but what the accounts of our Treasurer
are strictly correct, and that every dollar be
longing to the county is on hand and subject
to orders from proper authority. Then what
IA farce it is to compel body of men, not
fully posted. perhaps. in the laws governing
o<srntE affairs, n6r in the rules of book keep
4ng. to undertake to determine. by glance
at the books. whether they are properly and
correctly kept The whole thing is a farce,

THE Union men who supported Lincoln rt
the last election, are highly competent to do
their voting at caucuses and make their nom.
ina,ions. After the tickets are made, if the
>Copperheads and Secessionisls are psnitent
enough to vote the Union ticket, it is WELL
We have sworn sacred oath that Copper.
heads shall suffer punishment. so far az we
are able to extend and enforce it, by political
disfranchisement. and we shall keep our
oblig ,tions. 1t ia now Il eunanimous senti.
ment of the loyal voice that the brand of
political damnation be applied to Copper-
heads. They made their beds and they shall
lie in them.
The above extract. from the Marysville
Appeal, has the right ring, and we endorse
it fully. 1t is just the entiment-the feel
ing that will bring our weary country on to
firm tase. and place our Government in the
hands of its friends none other should be
permitted to have hand in its management.
We can get along without this '' governing
class, born to rule" We have lad too much
of it in the past. We have fought it,
whipped it, and it is cur duty to keep it in
check.

MINES PLAYED OuT IN SHAsra COUNTY
CONVINCING EYIDENcE.-The Washing gton
Quartz Company, of French Gulch, have
just cleaned up after run of 60 days with
lO stamps. This mill has been laying idle
Tor some time, because of the want of machi-
merry for saving the gold. Steps had been
taken - procure the improved amalgamating
pans, but in the meantime the quartz was
sccumulating at the mill. Finally, having
made the necessary arrangements for saving
the tailings, they commenced . run Of twenty
days, resulting in q mass Of retorted gold
weighing 463 81. 100 ounces, which, estimated
at Sl6 per ounce, amounts to S,4oS. An
assay of the tailings has been made, proving
them to be worth sos per ton. The High
land must look out for its laurels.

MYSTERIOUS the reception of the news
Of the assassination of President Lincoln at
Buckeye and Churntown, as in every other
locality, majority of the citizons felt grea'
sorrow Imagine their surprise, during the
early hours of the night following, on hearing
the report of cannon or anvil Many heard
it, and the criminal exultation thus made
manifest is suspected to have emenated from
one or more worshlppers If JEFF. who
live between those places. From what We
have heard we would suggest that ordinary
prudence would dictate to the guilty parties
the propriety of covering their trail about

~ INDIAN DEPRADArIoNs.-The annual rad
menced earlier than usual. Only some ten
days since the house of John Klotz. on Mill
Creek, was plundered, while Klotz and his
men were at work only a short distance off,
but out of sight of the house. The robbers
were pursued to their mountain hiding place
on Antelope Creek.
Such scenes as the killing of Mrs. Jones,
near Copper City, the killing of Mrs. Allen.
and the attempt to slay the four children in
the house, together with the burning OF
Wilkins & Phillips barn, on South Cow
Creek, and the general terror created
throughout that section last fall, are still
fresh in the minds of our citizens 80 much
so that even now some of the residents of the
pinery district take their wives and little
ones into the fields with them, for fear Of
these brutaksayages. Some Of our oldest and
best citizens in the Cow Creek country are
anxious to dispose of their effects at almost
any sacrifice, in order to remove their fami-
lies to a more secure locality; and many
believe they will be burnt out and driven Oh
from South Cow Greek the coming summer,
un.ess steps are soon taken to prevent these
savages from carrying out their threats.
In view Of these facts, cur citizens. and the
citizens of Tehama county, are petitioning
General Wright to station scouting party
OF thirty or forty men at Black Rock. on Mill
Creek, who, in unison with the troops ut
Fort Crook, Camp Bidwell, and the new post
ct Goose Lake, can undoubtedly bring these
outlaws to justice. We hope, for the sake Of
humanity, that General Wright will see the
necessity of such action and will speedily com;

We heas great deal of fault finding at

and no doubt will appear to students in
history four OF Eve years hence, wenow have

of the Government that tended to the sup
preston Of the rebellion, pronouncing all
such acts tJrannous oppressive. and uncon'

a place to lay its political head has no nest,
and no capital with which to build one !;
hence, without other Recommendation than
Democratic impudence. these men ask to
share the Union nest, nor dos hsiS modesty
limit :bem to anything but demand for a
full share therein, and on the fullest terms of
equality.
After four years of opposition to the Gov

efforts for the establishment of that Gov.

safely moored, they have just discovered that

live know ourselves" these old political
hacks have got to introduce other capital
than CAB and gas to produce the desired effect.
They will find that honesty, consistency in
the right. and persistency in that consistency
for much time, will be necessary to convince
men that those who have opposed them "are
as good Union men as anybody" 1t won't
do, gentlemen. Talk as you may. make
what professions you choose, it is impossible
to keep concealed both the tail and the cloven
foot. One or the other will stick out, and on
almost ali occasions they are both visible
through the sophistry with which you are
trying to convince men that you still retain
within your composition enough of the ele-
ments of political honesty and decency to
entitle you to their confidence. Assume a
virtue if you haveit not" Fall back on your
honors remain quiet for three or four
years, and under favorable circumstances
some of you may be enabled to get some little

success will be an entering wedge, enough to
insure rapid success in the requirement of all
honors-except the one honor of being hon
est-when you will flourish again as of old.
