PETITION TO THE LEGIsLArURE.-A petition nu-
nerously signed, and bearing the names of the
principal taxpayers in the county, has been for
warded to our Representatives asking that they
use their influence towards the passage OF law
dividing Trinity county into Collection and AS
sessment districts, the law to take effect IN March,
1868. 1t is desired that each of the three Su-
pervisor districts comprise an Assessment and
Collection district, for which an Assessor and
Collector be elected every two years. BY thls
change il is believed that the property OF the
county will be more thoroughly assessed, as each
Assessor will be acquainted with the citizens and
property of his district, while it generally takes
that officer the greater portion of one term to be-
come acquainted with the county at large. This,
with the division of the Collectors office, it is
hoped and believed will result benefcally to the
county, and we trust our Senatorand Assembly
man will spare no efforts to procure the passage
of the bill. The petition also asks that they will
their influence for the passage of a law
quiring all Foreign Miners licenses to be signed
by the county Auditor and Treasurer, county
Judge and Auditor, to take effect Immediately
after its passage.

LOWER TRINITY LOOKING Up AGAIN.. j. Ma
son, who is at present carrying the mail for Den
ny between Arcata and Coxs Bar, writes US that
he intends to commence mining at Burnt Ranch
soon. He says the miners at Willow creek are
doing well, and thinks the river will be pretty
well settled up this summer if the Indians are
kept in check. Mr.. Lack has got the Adm ranch
in order again, and has introduced large lot of
hogs. R. l.. Thomas is building on his old
place. j. Thompson is bringing water on the
Blyther place. His ditch will be completed in a
month. At Tinsleys place the miners doing
well. He further says the several hundred head
of stock at Hawks ranch is in fine condition.

BCsINEss-LIKE.-The Tax Collector Of Shasta
county gives public notice that he will accompa-
ny the Assessor in the performance of his duties,
and that the taxes upon all movable property will
be due as soon as the same has been assessed,
and the collection thereof Immediately enforc ed.
We are inclined to think that if the same course
was pursued in this county considerable amount
of taxes might be collected which would be lost
by the usual delay

UNFEAsIBLE, We THISK.--The San Francisco
merchants making an effort to compete with
the Missouri river route for the trade of Montana
and propose to try it first by way of the Colorado
river. cargo of goods is to be shipped that
way Immediately. Simply judging from the
position of Montana the map, and the infor
nation we have from that quarter, we are in
clined to think the Missouri river will get there
first.

SPEECHES OF THE President AND SECRETARY OF
able speech at Washington the 22d of Febru-
ary-one which, the prevailing opinion is, did
little credit to his head or his heart. 1t was a
style of harrangue which might be more appropri-
ately looked for from pot-house politician than
from the President of the United States. And
we surmise that its tone will be quite as aston
ishing abroad as at home. The most trifiing and
uncalled-for personalities were INDUCED in, and
it would be consoling to believe that the speaker
for season had lost his sanity. The tone OF
his argument still is that the Northern radicals
are still opposed to the restoration of the Union
doctrine to which history will give the lie most
positively. The Presidents effort on tins occa-
sion compares most miserably with all his former
speeches and acts since the commencement OF the
rebellion.
On the same day Secretary Seward spoke at
the Cooper Institute, New York, to large as
semblage. In every respect does he endorse and
coincide with the President in relation to his
policy of reconstruction. He expressed the con-
viction that there :! was not and never can be.
any successful process for restoring the Union
with which the President had avowed himself
satisfied No will doubt his assertion that
u the President is in harmony with the States
which in rebellion He says the lately
seeded States are in earnest cooperation with
the Federal Government, which will be news to
many. The speech of the Secretary will have
much more weight throu ghout the country than
that of the President, although both are to the
same end.
