OROvILLE. SATURDAY. MARCH 18th
SACRAMENTO ElrcrIos.-The municipal election

SAcRAxENTo ELECTIoS.-The municipal election
in Sacramento took place on Tuesday last. Whole
number of votes cast / ,707. The regular Union
ticket was carried over the opposition, whatever
that was called by vote of nearly two to one
Commenting upon the result, the ETpTes', which
was q stickler for straightout Democratic ticket,
thinks those who opposed such proposition nave
learned an important lesson. This may be 50, but
looking at the subject without party prejudice, we
incline TO the belief that the Express. does not
realize the extent to which its party has been
whipped in the last half dozen years, at the ballot
box. The San Francisco Examiner appeared to
have vague idea of irredeemabie calamity that
had overtaken them, when it headed the johnson
movement in San Francisco last spring. But it
killed Johnson The Sentinel, the new Democratic
naper at Red Bluff seems to be less obtuse than the
Express, and sustains the President The truth OF
history is none of these papers are Democratic.
Their conductors followed minority OF seventy
five delegates out of the Charleston Convention in
60 and have not since amounted to the dignity or
importance of guerrillas. The fact that they are
occasionally heard of in politics may be accounted
for upon the theory that suicides are denied res
pectabe burial. They were the practical abolition
lists of the past ten years. devoid of sense sufficient
to foresee the practical result Of their partisan
action, and now appear to be struggling for res
toraton of the old state of things blythe process
that destroyed them. They should realize the fact
that they alone are responsible for the approaching
equality of races and classes, and for the consoli-
dation of the'government. They might as well re-
alize frst as last that more can they rally the
people under their leadership, and that they must
seek different track for their machine. The praise
bestowed upon Bidwell by the Examiner and San
tinel should the Radicals to be on their guard
and instead of making member of the Charleston
Convention their Governor. choose one whose prin-
ciples are ingrained into his very existence and
who would suffer humiliation, without departing
therefrom We do not wish TO be considered as
rendering oficious advice in this matter of politics
and are willing that parties should do as they see
proper but nevertheless regard Josh Billings
as philosopher when he sad IF it is right to be
conservative you can't be too conservatives; and if
it is right to be radical, you can't be too RADICAL
1t would indeed be more than passing strange If,
while Andrew Johnson is still filling the unexpired
term of the lamented Lincoln, the Union party OF
California should take another supporter of Bu-
chanan's Administration and place him in the Gu
bernat ORAL chair. But it is none Of our business.
We started ont to show that according to the Er-
press, the Democracy failed to carry the Sacra-
mento election because they did not make a straight
party ticket. OF course they will not hereafter
suffer defeat from Ike cause.

FoRr KEARSEY MAssACRR.-A party from Fort
Douglas recently visited the scene CT the late hor-
rible massacre at the former place and gave it as
their opinion that the attack by the Indians had
been made at point where escape was mppossi-
bic. They state that, in their belief Col Fetttr-
man and Lieut.. Brown had in all probability shot
themselves TO avoid the torture that awaited them.
Their bodies when found were examined and a
pistol ball had pierced the brain of each. The APP
pearance OF the ground gave indications of fear
ful struggle The conjecture is reasonable one,
that while gazing upon the fortunes inflicted by
these inhamaa savages upon the men, that when
they reached the officers it would have been ang-
mented, and when death seemed Inevitable, they
preferred instant death to long and torturing one

left Buces ranch TO go to his home. 1t commenced
stormng soon after, and he lost his way and was
out for three days and two nights. Both of his
feet and hands badly frozen, but on the third
day he succeeded in crawling to his cabin. The
snow was so deep that he could not open the door
of his cabin and he crawled down the chimney.
After resting awhile and getting something to eat,
he got out again and crawled to cabin a short
distance OF where he received every attention pos
sbe. 1t is thought that both of his feet and one
of his arms viii have to be amputated.
