THE FIGHTING GENERALS VERSUS THE

When Secretary Stanton found that the
board had ignored the claims of his easy

faithful clerical duty in Washington during
the entire war, he quietly sent their names
20 the senate, and, taking advantage of the
second veto excitement rushed them through
the Military Committee and had them con-
frmed. The trick has excited a great deal
OF indignation among those regular officers
who fought in the field all through the war,
and whose claims for reward were endorsed
by the renowned warriors who composed
the board Of examiners. Many Of these

COMMUNICATIONS WITH IDAHo.-Idaho papers
appear to have turned the cold shoulder on Genera
Bidwell's great Idaho and little Chico Stage Line
and transferred their business to the line through
Nevada. The 0wyhee Araianche says:
Through passengers by this line to California
need not go to Virginia and will reach San Fran
cisco in four and half days. Parties wishing
California papers should order them by express as
by so doing they will get them day earlier than
by mail, as the mail must go via Virginia and the
express comes direct. Sacramento and San Fran
cisco papers can be had here regularly in four and
five days from date.
Then follows favorable notice of Hill Beachy
the Superintendent of the Nevada line The Chico
route appears to be in weaving way. Its diverg
ence from the true route, for the benefit of Bid
wells ranch, and the fourteen hours detention Of
its travel for the benefit of Marysville, have appa
rently settled its hash. Here is the hand that the
COurant extended to the 4duaidnehe last spring
-; 81 and the way the Aralanche receives it
Now, our idea is to straighten the Northern Cali
fornia line between Susanyille and Oroville thus
lessening that portion of the route Is miles, and
dispense with the fourteen hours detention in Ma.
rysville. Better time could then be made on this
route than on that through Nevada. And we are
going to have it that way. if can get it. 1t is
the best and shortest route, if those who are now
destroying it can be ch oked off.

HINTS TO SOUTHERN ExIGRASrs-One Of the
San Francisco papers, tthe Ercsinsr. We believe)
recently contained fatulent notice of the emil
grafton from California Of that collapsed bag Of reb
el vanity and nothnguess, C. T. Bolts Esqire. to
Gland where partzan bigotry viii interfere with
his rights and privileges citizen" That is.
where he can give fun expression to his innate ha-
tired of the American Government. without expert
euce cowardly fear. We have heard il stated,
but do not vouch for its correctness. that C. 7.
Bolts. was induced to emigrate from Richmond,
Virginia, in consequence of cowhide castigation
administered by John Lambert, formerly Member
Of Assembly from Butte. OF course, no high-toned
chiyalry specimen could raman on the sacred soil
after such an interference with his rights and
privileges as a citizen" and he re-appered among
the rebel retromingents of California as the Hon.
C. T. Botts.' but only as it appears, to become
again Disguised with the land of his birth, and to
emigrate to land his biographer leaves nameless.
1t is the pleasing duty of the Examiner to keep
these subugated rebel pizzernctums, who are dis
gusted renegades from their country, prominently
before the public as Hons Judges Colo
nels,' and "Generals.- Now, our idea is that
man who becomes disguised with popular gov
eminent, is nuisance who ought voluntarily to
emigrate, or be kicked out, and that too without
any honorable prefix to his unpopular name to aid
him in deceiving less intelligent people into the
belief that he is somebody. But we started ont to
show the delightful Mecca towards which the faces
OF these Hon. rebels appear TO be turned and which
the Examiner seems ashamed 10 mention. 1t is
Brazil. A writer in the Louisville Journal gives
this picture of life in that country for the benefit
of those distinguished patriots who have become
disguised with America:
"For the benefit of those of onr friends whose
patriotism mpels them to fly like towards from the
task of hard work set before the poor belabored
South: who prefer to live lazy, enervatng. lcen-
tous people. instead of manfully going to work to
place the old land its legs again have care
American Eden they sigh for. There may be found
spiders with bodies two inches and legs seven
inches long, that catch and suck birds butterflies
that are mistaken for humming birds green snakes
Just like creeping plants. and lively coral snake
with bands of vermillion and black, separated by
clear white rings monkeys with white hair all
over them monkeys only seven inches long and
ow-faced apes that sleep all dag, and are remark
ably lively all night. Reptiles, insects, and two
thirds of the fruits and berries are poisonous and
the birds, though Boosting brilliant plumage are
songless. Take it all in all, the South-poor, ruin
ed, and deSolated as she isis worth hundred
Brazils yet. Let those who want TO desert her
leave. They will not be missed ; and the room
they would have occupied will be filed with better
people"

That won't do We want nothing of the kind.
II Oroyile cannot exist without inficting useless
detention the overland travel to and from Ore
gon. and on the travel of the Northern California
route to Idaho, we don't care how Oroville
may cease to exist. The place that is dependent
upon such detention for its support, is a useless
excre.ence on the face of the earth All We ask is
that these routes, essential and important to
Northern California, shall have fair show to COM
pete with the ocean route and the route through
Nevada, for the travel of Oregon and Idaho. We
shall get it, after awhile too, in spite of the selfish
ness that is now turning it around and away from
Northern California.
1t may do to say that person has Railroad on

and more food 10 be bought. Every farmer, me-
chanic, merchant and miner therefore has a direct
interest in the extension Of railroad communica-
