Vile and Woodville turnpike. The Company in
tend running daily line, commencing on Monday
next, each coach to be drawn by six horses. This
will be one of the finest stage routes in the State,
and will receive liberal patronage. The splendid

and dense shades all combine to make this one of
the most desirable routes to be travelled and of the
most speedy. Passengers, on this line can leave
Rabbit Creek in the morning and take the cars and
arrive at Marysville before twelve O'Clock noon of
the same day.

HAVE We RAREY?-Last evening we saw q
gentleman ride up to the post office on small po-
nv which was under excellent training. The rider
on arriving at the door. tckled his horse on the
fore legs with a whip, when the pony laid down on
all fours and allowed Rarey No. to step OF. On
coming out of the post Office, the horse again got
down and allowed his master to step aboard. Rarey
No. is some.-AppsGl
That's nothing. Rarey No resides in oroville.
He has two year old colt that will. at the word
command gallop, trot, pace, walk, lay down, act
dead, set down take of his masters hat, or a
handkerchief from his pocket. Tie the same on
either the fore hind leg, the trained two year old
will unite and hand it to his master; also bring the
whip, jump or not jump and fall as directed-shake
hands with his master, dance Waltz, and the best
of all is when asked to take a drink shakes his
head, a sign that he is temperate and will
never do to go into the next County Convention as
a candidate for office.

HARD on PIxLEY.-The country press pref
ty generally. are down on Pixley for his late
famous speech in defence of the Salvador pi-
rates. We copy the following from the Stars
and Stripes:
The speech of Frank Pixley, recently deliv-
cred 10 San Francisco, as one of counsel for
the Saluador pirates, aptly illustrates the fact
that We should be cautious about committing
ourselves to far in advance in advocacy of the
claims of individuals. Three months ago, If
we had been compelled to choose between the
several asprants for Senatorial honors, Mr..
Pixley would have received our vote. In the
speech referred to be took occasion TO pass
high eulogium upon the gallantry. heroism
and courtesy of the Semmeses and Maffits of
the Confederate Navy" than whom "no mild
er hammered men eer scuttled ship or cut u
throat" So far as we are concerned, Frank
Pixley's political bung is extracted. IT, as o
lawyer, the proffer of fee would induce so
wanton an outrage of the feelings of his loyal
fellow citizens, we should dread the effect Of
habit upon the future Senator.
