The IMPEACHMENT FARcE.-L. c. Baker, form
erly Government detective in the employ of
the Secretary of War, who impudently placed
detectives" in the White House to report the
doings of that department of the Government,
for which he was reprimanded and finally must
cred out of the public service, was one of the
witnesses before the impeachment committee
TINS fellow, Baker, was formerly on the San
Francisco police force, from which be was dis.
charged for dishonest practices. lie subsequently
became chief of Stauton's detective force, in
wich capacity be had much to do with manu-
factoring the Conover testimony, all of which
has since proved to have been manufactured
out OF the whole cloth" If the character of
the President is to be sworn away by such
scoundrcls as Baker, the 'impeachment commit
tee" will have no difficulty in finding all the
testimony they require.

RAsoALs IS 0FFIcE.-Nearly the whole Of the
last session of Congress was frittered away in
futile attempts 10 divest the President of the
power to remove public officials. Instead of
legislating for the country the great aim seemed
to be to keep Office holders in their snug places.
As showing the character of the men who are
so dear to the radical heart, we command to the
attention of the reader the following extract from
the N. Y. Post, leading radical journal:
"a special agent Of the Treasury was recently
sent to the northern frontier. The district he
visited includes twenty three subordinate Custom
House offices. The special agent, who was un,
known to these officers, succeeded in making an
arrangement with twenty two Of the officers for
smuggling goods into the United StAtes.p

the CosT OF LIvING.-A comparison Of the
market quotations, as given in the New York
papers, with the prices current on this coast,
shows that it costs less to live here than it does
in the Eastern States. Take the article of flour,
and we fnd it quoted in New York at $40 and
Sl2. Here the ruling rate for the best brands
is $3.50 "a S.. Cows and calves can be bought
in this market at $40 a. $50; in New York they
are quoted at SlOO "a lis. Eggs in New York
command 80 g. 55 ceutsi here the ruling figure
is 20 cents. Wheat commands in the Eastern
States from S2.lO to $2.35; here the rate is 60
ceOts. sO,we may run through the great staples,
and We find that in the Eastern States the prices
rule from one hundred to two hundred pe- cent.
higher than on the Pacific Coast Considering

treble the wages the same classes command in
the Atlsntic States, it will be seen that this is

ANOTHER PIONEER GoNE.-Frauris S Holland,
an early pioneer in the settlement of Oregon,
and man who held many positions of. homer
in that State, died at San Francisco on the 10th
ult. Deceased crossed the plains with the emf
grafton of lS45, and from that day to this has
been constant resident of Oregon. He early
took up his residence at Oregon City, and in
1852, was elected County Clerk of Clackamas
county, which position he held for ten years
Subsequently he removed to the Dalles, where
be held the position of City Recorder, and later
still was elected County Clerk, an office made
vacant by his death. Widely known, be was
universally esteemed as an honorable, high
minded man, and as public officer was distin~
guished by the fidelity with which be iischarg
ed every trust. Of the early life of the deceas
ed, we know nothing more than that he emf
grated from Augusta, Iowa, coming to this coast
In early manhood, and identifying himself with
Its fortunes until removed by the hand of death.
Deceased leaves a wife and two children, living
at the Dalles, aud two brothers who live in Or
egon lie also leaves a sister, the wife of Lewis
Day, living at Walla Walla. To the friends and
relatives, we tender our coincidence in the loss
OF good man and valuable citizen.

y Proper SPIRIT.-IIorace Greeley, whatever
his failings, is at least entitled to the credit of
being liberal and magnanimous foe. Refer
ring to the mad zealots who insist that there
shall be no restoration until the people of the
South exhibit what they are pleased to term a
"loyal spirit" Greeley says
awe do not favor the requirement by Con.
gress OF retrospective, pluperfect loyalty. In
view Of all the facts, this seems illiberal and
unwise. Albert Galatin was said to have taken
part in the Pennsylvania Whisky Rebellion :;
yet he afterward became one of our most hon.
ored and trusted statesmen. We believe many
who were jealous Confederates are now hearty
Unionists, and we must regret the denial to
such of any opportunity to earn bread or serve
the country. Let us have a Bankrupt Law for
The hopeessly indebted, and something cores
Ponding to it for those who, having been Reb-
els, are Rebels more"

Defeat Of the Tariff Bill.
New YORK, March l.-Horace Greeley writes
fresh from Washington that the primary cause

amendments The master spirit of the intrigue

yellow JAcKEr.-0n yesterday after
noon we took q short run among the
mines of Gold Hill. At all points the
mines are being worked with much
vigor, At the Yellow Jacket we noticed
the old ropes were being removed and
new ones were being put in their place.
The cars at this mine usually bring up
l,400 pounds at q load, and great care
as to be,used in having good ropes that
no accident occurs. We were shown
some ore yesterday, taken out by Harry
Clawson, while We were at the mine,
and now on exhibition at his saloon,
which would work as high as $500 0
per ton, being nothing but o pure mass
Of sulphurets Of silver, and resembling
the character of ore taken from the
Spanish and Gould & Curry in ls63-'64.
There is no doubt but what the Yellow
Jacket is one Of the best mines on the
Comstock lode, and is managed in the
most systematic manner Everything
moves along with as much precision as
the large engines that drives the ma
chinery. Mr.. 0'Donnell, the gentle
manly foreman, is seldom seen, being
nearly all the time under ground now
that he is acting in the capacity Of fore
man of the Yellow Jacket and Kentuck.
We saw him yesterday for a few min
utes, but all at once he disappeared into
the shaft like q rat into its hole.
0'Donnell is a good miner, and justly
merits the position he occupies.

THE STORM IN NORTH CAROLINA.-The
storm of Tuesday night was very violent
in North Carolina. We learn that the
mail train on the Wilmington and Wei
don railroad was stopped for some hours,
owing to the number of large trees blown
down across its track. In the piny woods
of the immense sandy levels of eastern
North Carolina the storms sometimes play
great havoc. The tall pines, although
having long tap-roots, cannot withstand the
heavier storms, owing to the lightness of
the soil in which they grow. A tornado
occasionally makes wide way through the
forest by telling almost every tree in its
route.
