THE IDAHO GovERNORsHIP.

It finally appears that the telegraph report
of the confirmation Of one Isaac L. Gibbs, as
Governor Of Idaho, by the Senate. July 18TH
was correct batitis also true that-which the
telegraph failed to report ION the very next
day the Senate reconsidered the confirmation,
on the ground that no vacancy existed in the
Office, and therefore disappointment to it could
be made. So that Gov Ballard continues in
office. In connection with this matter we may
instance bit of crawfshing which our cctem-
porary at Boise City has been brought to.
Some months ago we sremarked that, agreea-
bly, to the theory of Secretary Seward--which
was sustained by the decision of Judge Deadly
iin the California case of Bigler versus Avery
the nomination of ]. NJ. Murphy for the of
fee of Governor of Idaho, by the j President,
carried with it the assumption that the office
was vacant, and the rejection of the nominee
by the Senate left that vacancy untitled, and
devolyed the duties of the Office upon the Ter
ritorial Secretary. The Statesman came back
at us in it's customary wild, scattering, absurd
and brash style, and seemed to view the theory
as our own, and not, as we plainly stated it to
be, that of Secretary Stewards. The facts
now como to us, in relation to the disposition
of Gibbs appointment, prove that we we're
correct in attributing the theory mentioned
above to Mr. Seward, and the facts further
show that the President acted upon that theory
in sending in Mr. Gibbs name for the action
of the Senate That body first acted I'M ac-
cordance with the same theory, but the next
day reversed that action. The point in con-
troyersy seems to have been at last submitted
to Attorney General Stansberry, who gave the
opinion that no vacancy existed in the Office
or, substantially, that Gov. Ballard is still the
de jure and de facto Governor of Idaho Terri
tory. The Statesman has, within the week,
sneakingIy admitted that our former position,
which it so fippantly and furiously assailed,
was founded upon actual basis

THE "LIrTLE BLACKBOARD" stephen A.
Douglas gained for himself the sobriquet Of
the Little Giant" H. w. Raymond, of the N
Y. Times, that of the "Little Villains and
Gorham, the Radical candidate for Governor
of California, seems in fair way to earn the
sobriquet of the q Little Backyard. 8 The
reports of his last speeches in Sacramento and
San Francisco. which we find in the Radical
papers, certainly show him very worthy of the
distinction. He talked blackguardism, and iu-
dulged in personal abuse and elimination for
about two hours, in each city. and reduced the
number of his hearers, on each occasion, from
a large crowd to very small squad. He evil
IDENTIFY feels the overwhelming defeat which
awaits him, and is trying to get even as all
blackguards DOLBY abusing all who oppose
him.

petition of a black man who applied for writ

are all Radicals, but nevertheless they are
guilty of treason agreeably to Sumner, Thad.

the Directors, who sustain the party which
forces negro equality on nyportiOn of the
country, can consistently refuse to apply the
same equality in their own community.

been sound Democrat since that steamboat

his head was severely injured outside and
within. That explosion took place in 1856, we
believe. Bidwell has exhibited more regard
for Office than for principle ever since.

A POSTAL SwINDLE.-We were shown a
letter from the POstoffice Department in Wash
ington, received few days ago by c. I. Blake
& Co. here, in response to an inquiry, on their
part, concerning the duty of postmasters in
sending printed mail matter on this coast. BIZ
o most oppressive and shameful law passed by
the Congress of last Winter, all printed mat
ter, over certain interior routes on this coast,
which exceeds o certain weight, is to be charg-
ed letter rate postage. The object is to force
newspaper packages and all bulky printed mat
ter into the Express, and swell the profits Of
the Company at heavy cost both to publish
ers and customers. But the law provides that
the Postmasters shall send all printed matter
Of the kind by the shortest route, and give
preference, at the same time, to the route over
which merely ordinary paper postage is charg-
ed To play into the hands of the Express,
the San Francisco Postmaster has sent packa-
ges of school books and papers, which We're di-
rected to Idaho City, by the long interior way,
by which letter postage had to be paid, instead
of by the more direct ocean way, by which
only ordinary paper postage is charged, and
thus added very heavy cost upon the books
and papers. Against this practice Blake s.
Co. protested. The Postmaster General, by
his Assistant, in the answer to the firm here,
states that positive and particular orders have
been given to Postmasters on this coast to SO
transmit printed mail matter as to save the
parties from the extortionate payment of the
letter rate postage, if the thing be possible, by
forwarding such matter over route on which
only the ordinary paper postage is charged.
Parties interested ought to see that the Post
masters generally on the coast observe the law
as expounded by the Postmaster General. 1t
is especially important to newspaper publish
ers, news agents and booksellers.
