LIBERALs.-We see, and hear Of,
every day that we take up a paper, or
Join knot of political gossipers, libcr
al republicans, liberal democrats, and
liberal reformers and that there is
some or at least one liberal so-called
radical, the publication of communi-
cation headed Liberalism, in another
column, in this paper bearing at its
most.head the banner of the ultra
straight out republicans, will incOntrO'
vertibly and incontestehly prove
The political opinions of the editor of
the Gazette, or his sect of Republi-
canism is well known i'm this cOmmuni-
ty- or may be conceived by his past
editorials and selections, but having
no pecuniary interest at present in the
Gazette. he cannot of course oppose
his particular opinions to those of it's
proprietor, which are also known and
proclaimed to the world at large,
friend aud foe, but must whilst he
holds the position conform with its re
quirements. We say then it demon
strates unequivocally aud uncomfortable
torily, the liberality and fairness of Mr.
Kelso's feelings and disposition, that
he permits the article referred to, which
has been submitted to his inspection
to be published in his paper at all, and
that his conduct in the matter should
secure to him the respect and goot
win Of the community at large, anf
the increased confidence and devotion
of the political party to which he be
longs.

The CRoPs.-The prospect for fair
crop of cotton is still extremely good
with one exception and that is the re-
ported appearance Of the army worm
in various localities. 1t is true that
there are different opinions as to
whether or not the insects are the
genuine simon pure article or not, but
it is certain whatever they are they
are eating the leaves of the plant and
almost equally certain that they will
in time make clean sweep of them
how long or how short that time may
be, it is almost as impossible to guess
at as to be certain OF.
We are most unfeignedly sorry to
chronicle the probability of this disas'
trous and disheartening disappoint
ment to the hopes and fair prospects
of the whole community, for in good
crop the prosperity of the community
depends and still hope almost against
hope it is true, that the result will he
better than now seems probable. for
as a general thing as We before re-
marked, planting has been prosecuted
with vigor and Industry by all engag-
ed in it whether white or cOlOred.
One part of the reward for exertIon is
however already secured, as the corn
crop is as an average made, and is a
bouutiful one, and SO neither man Oh
beast will be stinted another year.

The Last Fire.

From our friend DIR. Cockerille, we
have learned some particulars OF the
disastrous accident which happened
to him and his family on Saturday
morning last resulting in the destruc-
ton by fire of the house in which he
lived and the loss by some means or
other, of fully half of his furniture and
other effects, valuable set of jewelry
and Two fine gold atches and chains.
The fire was discovered about SO
o'clock on Saturday morning breaking
ont from the kitchen, the Fire Compa-
MES were soon on the ground, bat
were unable to arrest the flames but
ON account of tho insufficient supply
of water, and the inefficacy of the Ell
CINE, all that they could do, being to
prevent the spreading of the fire. We
understand from DIR. c. that the
watches were delivered by his wife to
a member OF the Pacific Fire Company
or al least to a man who wore their
uniform and may reasonably suppos-
ed a member-who has not yet ap-
peared to deliver up his charge. 1t is
great pity he cannot be identified SO
as to relieve the gallant body of men
of which he is so unworthy member
of even any semblance of stigma for
his mean and contemplate crime. We
beg leave to offer to DR.. G. and his
family our sincere sympathy in their
misfortune.

Would you be surprised, if Carter,

MONTANA MINING Co.-This promising
location, about 400 yards beyond the
Portland ledge and not far from the
celebrated Bowery mine, is again being
vigorously worked. 1t is one of the
oldest locations in that section Of the
district; and at the depth of 60 feet
shows we'll defined vein OF very fair
ore between two and three feet in width.
A contract has just been let to sink the
main shaft SO feet deeper. The fact that
D. Wattelet, the enterprising Superin-
tendent Of the Phoebe Champion, has
been appointed Superintendent, is a
sufficient guarantee that the work of
development will be promptly pushed
forward.
