THE TEHAMA BRIDGE.

The bill authorizing the Central Pa

bridge without draw across the Sacra-
mento at Tehama, and which | mention

grief having been vetoed by the Govern
or ON constitutional grounds. He says
that under the LAWS Of the United States
direct that all the navgable waters Of the
State shall be common highways and for
ever free and open to all the inhabitants
Of the State and the passage of the bill
would be in direct violation of one of the
express conditions under which Califor-
MIA was admitted into the Union. The

next day allowed n reconsideration and
the same day the passage of the resolu-
tion by vote of AZ to 39-rather too
close to be very comfortable to those d-
rectly interested in its passage. One or
two of the members turned " somersault"
probably converted by the able argu-

BAD CoMAANY. - Poor company
may be little better than none.
Bad company is certainly a great
deal worse. Intelligence, prudence,
purity, wisdom and truth in our as
sociations, will tend to elevate and
improve as in every good quality,
while ignorance, rashness and folly
are contagious, and many person
has been led to a moral and social
ruin by the exciting influence o.
evil associates. Our tastes will
largely decide the company we keep.
Like seeks like, water finds its level
and when we find our associates ten.
ding downward, it is time for us to
stop and inquire whether such asso-
citation will tend to improve or de-
grade us in our own estimation, as
we'll as that of others. Every per-
son should endeavor to improve
themselves that the world may be
benefited by their living in it.

The Davenport Brothers Caught.

The Davenport Brothers lately
gave some psychic exhibitions at
Ithaca, New York, but their tricks
were sadly disarranged by some OF
the Cornell University fellows. A
private letter says that some of the
students, having scientific turn Of
mind provided themselves before
hand with pyrotechnic balls contain
ing phosphorus, somade as to ignite
suddenly with bright light. Dur
ing the dark scenes when the
Davenports purported to be, and as
the audience supposed were, bound
hand and foot in their closet or cabin,
and when the guitar was floating in
air and playing musically around
the aforesaid students struck their
lights all of sudden, when the spirits
were found to be none other than
the Davenports themselves, who
were lodging about the stage,
brandishing the guitars, and playing
the tunes. The music suddenly
ceased, the committee declared the
performance humbug, and the
players departedfrom Ithaca by the
earliest train.-Er.

Hon. W. H. SEWARD.

A good many rumors have ap-
peared in. the papers about the
health of Hon. William H. Seward,
entirely contradictory in their ma
ture, and the public are somewhat
at loss to know what is the exact
truth. A friend of ours, who has
lately visited Mr.. Seward at his
home in Auburn, states that Mr..
Seward is in the enjoyment of re-
markably good health; he spends
each day as many hours in vigorous
literary labors as most men of forty
would care to do; he drives out
every day, and spends some hours
in pleasant social intercourse. In
conversation Mr.. Seward shows the
vigor OF early days, and when
touching upon any theme of special
interest he warns up to the subject
until one is quite carried away with
his eloquence. The central idea of
hlr. Stewards life has been to bene-
fit the generation in which he lives;
he stood alone in the United States
Senate demanding justice for the
negro, when many who are now the
loudest in demanding privileges for
the colored people were pro-slavery
to the last degree. It has been a
fixed principle with Mr.. Seward
never to spend a moments time in
defending himself, but to allow his
actions to speak for themselves; and
how much more efectual it has
proved than the hours and DAYS
and weeks and months spent by
some Senators and Congressman in
personal explanations and defence
of their own actions. Mr.. Seward
can now spend the evenings of his
days with a full conviction that all
the charges that malice or bitter
partisanship have ever made against
him have failed in any degree to
weaken the confidence which his
countrymen feel in him.-Galary.

A New ANEcDoTE OF WASHINGTON.
DIR. Francis Lieber tells the fol-
lowing story of Washington. He
and Jefferson had been discussing
the question of q division of the
Legislative department into two
houses:
Jefferson one day visited Wash
ington, and full as Jefferson was OF
French views and ideas of politics,
and everything else, he zealously
attacked the system of two houses.
General Washington replied that
Jefferson was much better informed
than himself on such topics, but
that he himself would adhere to
the experience of English and
American history. You yourself,
said the General, have proved the
excellence of two houses this very
moment T. said jefferson, how
is that9' You haye,' replied the
heroic sage, poured hot tea from
the cup into the saucer to cool it.
1t is the same thing we desire Of the
two houses

ance of the principle of arbitration
would make Great Britirn indifer-
ent to the contents of the American
Case, provided she had confidence
in the Board, for she would natur-
ally say, the Board is as competent
to pass upon the extent of the
American claims as upon their
nature. But the fact is, England
has only yet reached the point of
accepting arbitration on distinctly
defined issues, and we doubt if any
other nation has got much further.
We are still at some distance from
a state of things in which interna-
tional disputants will throw down
the facts before a court and ask it
to say what are their rights and
duties. In the meantime, both
parties owe it to the great interests
OF civilization not to let the Treaty
OF Washington miscarry for any
but substantial reasons. If nothing
real is gained or guarded against
by the claim for consequential
damages, there ought surely to be
some means found of disposing of
it SO as to save everybody's self
love.-The Nation.

Carpet-Baggers and Scalawass.

Mr.. Joubert in his testimony be.
fore the Congressional Committee
on Thursday, was asked to define
what he meant by "Carpet-baggers
and Scalawags," and in reply stated
that it was men who came here
from the North to hold Office and
make money; and then leave. He
thought that one-half of the colored
men in the Legislature were Carpet
Baggers. Mr.. Joubert thus defines
himself, for he is q Carpet -Bagger,
if ever there was one, he was a
strong Union man during the war,
and fought for it with his talk }.
His mouth-piece must have suffered
severely, spouting for the Union.
He then went on to say that at one
time he had considered Col. Casey
a Carpet -Bagger, but as the Colonel
had settled in the State he no longer
considered him such. From this
we would infer that Mr.. Joubert
does not consider himself o carpet
bagger as he too has settled in the
State, but perhaps he has not made
sufficient to leave, and until then,
considers himself above the colored
carpet-baggers of the Legislature.
The colored men of the Legislature
no doubt, feel complimented by
such remarks from a would-be re-
preventative of their race. Mr..
Joubert had induced his father to
liberate all his slaves, but he (Jou-
bert), had held two, because when
he became their master, there was
a law in the State that requires
every man who iberates a slave to
leave the State. Yet he fought,
(talked) for the Union, and the
freedom of our slaves, but thought
it devolved upon him to hold two,
and as he says, educated one, who
is now his clerk. Mr.. Joubert en-
deavored to extricate himself after
it was too late. His cake is all
dough.
Mr.. Joubert says he does not
consider MIR. Casey a carpet-baggar,
because he had settled in the State,
but did Mr.. Casey come here for
Office? oh! no, but got one and in
duty-bound settled down here, un-
til he makes enough, when he will
vamouse, he will then be denounced
as carpet-bagger, SO probably will
Mr.. Joubert be, but until these
gentlemen obtain all they can, they
are not to be termed carpet-baggers.
1t is very probable that if the Gus
tomhouse clique had any chances
whatever in the coming contest,
that Messrs. Joubert and Casey
would never become carpet-baggers.
Mr.. Joubert stated that "the COL
ored people were politically afraid
OF their old masters" he probably
had forgotten that. he once was a
master of slaves, but perhaps he
only held them as slaves, to remain
in the State. whereas, had he lib
Grated them, he would have had to
leave, again he says he thought the
colored people were opposed to
Governor Warmoth who fought for
them, while be (Joubert) held them
in bondage. Mr.. Joubert's endeav-
ors to lead the colored men to the
belief that Governor Warmoth is
not their friend, are to weak, as he
will find out when Governor War
moth is reelected in November, by
an overwhelming majority, and that
too, by the vote Of the colored men,
when he (Joubert). will depart for
France.-Ierrebonne Patriot.

LIBERIA.

Are the .colored men capable OF
sef-government? That is the ques-
ton. In this country there has not
been time since their emancipation
to test the experiment. On the
Grain Coast of Upper Guinea, how
ever, an experiment has been going
on for about half century, under
the auspices of the American Col
onization Society, which affords a
conclusive answer to that question.
The Republic of Liberia is a free,
representative government of col
ored men. Whites, so far, are ex-
cluded from the rights of citizen
ship. The President and Represen-
tatives are elected for t,cc years;
Senators for four. All citizens are
electors when they are t,centy one
years of age, and possess real estate.
This colons for years has been
attracting the attention of the civil
lied world. The success and rapid
progress of the colony is matter
settled beyond dispute. As far
back as 1S48 Great Britain and the
United States recognized the Re-
public, an example which has since
been followed successively by Bel
gium, Prussia, Brazil and France
(in 1S54.) The population is over
a quarter of million.
Here then is the chosen spot to
test the possibilities of a free civil
lied government of the negro race.
From 1923 its history was one of
almost unvarying prosperity and
domestic peace, until some time
last year, when the first political
difficulty occurred, which for a time
threatened the destruction of the
little Republic. We note it here,
and now to show how the black
man handles the question of civil
war:
The constitution of Liberia fixes
the Presidential term at tDo years.
E. G. Roy, the President, liking
the situation too well, undertook to
extend his term two years more
without going to the trouble of
reelection. He found it easier to
make a simple proclamation that he
would extend his term to four years.
Now, according to all received ira
ditions and notions, the negro ought
to have yielded peaceably and stu
pidly to this tyranny. But he did
not. The Legislature at once de-
clared the act d President Roy un-
constitutional and usurpation. Roy
then forbade the regular election
to be held for President, and took
immediate measures to inaugurate
a civil war or compel the people to
submit.
Now let us white men mark the
result and inwardly digest. Without
violence or a drop of blood shed, |
the people quietly reused them
selves, put Roy and his cabinet in |
prison, held their regular election |
and annulled all the illegal acts Of
the usurper and chose ex-President
Roberts for the succeeding term.
Roberts was inaugurated on the
lst of January, and all is quiet on
the coast of Guinea! If the advo-
Gates of the Monkey-an Gorilla
origin of the negro can do better
than that we should like to hear
the evidence, and it would not be
much of a disgrace after all, if such
are the result of low origin.
II this transaction does not prove
the capability Of the negro for self
government in all places and at all
times, it certainly proves that it is
