should return and report favorably another mes

tween Captain Jack and the Commissioners.
sQUAw wHIrTLE's INSTRUCTIONS.
On Wednesday rode over to Van Bremer's ranch
and passed the day with Major Miller Major Throck-
morton and the other ofIlcers at the camp We
talked over the prospects OF peace, and 1T ap-
peared to be the general opinion that the nstruc-
tons from Washington were Of such peaceful
nature % to make the business OF the
Peace Commissioners an affair easy to arrange.
When returned to Fairchild's I found that MRS.
Whittle had arrived ana In the evening Mr..
Measham had talk with her, and gave his In.
structions, which were smply to explain how
peacefully inclined President Grant was and the
desire OF the Peace Commissioners TO talk over the
question with Captain Jack. Mrs. whittle and
squaw called Arlene left early this morning for
Captain Jacks camp. * - r.
WHY THE COMMISSION NAY FAIL. ra0
1t is the general opinion In this neighborhood
that the Peace Commission will nzzle out, ss the
right men are not on 1t. 1t ts In fact moro plainly
expressed in remark made to me yesterday,
"They can't be elected, as the wrong men are on
the ticket" 1t certainly does appear strange that
some names were not put on the Peace Commits
sion Of men known to the Indians and in whom they
could trust and have reliance. Again, there are
many complaints that California has representa-
tives In the council The war 10 In California and the
Indians are in California, and yet three oregon
men have been selected to decide what Is to be
done with them. The settlers In this neighborhood
say that nothing can DO done by the present Gem
mission, as the Indians will not talk with them.
Mr.. Meacham was the superintendent of Indian
Affairs when Captain Jack went on the Klamath
reservation.
DOES JACK SPEAK WITH ONE rovGuEs
JACK states that he left the reservation because
he was starved and only half blankets were served
out to him and his people. The squaws in this
neighborhood all reiterate the same complaint.
Again, in justice to Mr.. Mescham, he denies the
complaint In toto. and says that he furnished the
blankets to the Indians with his own hands and
that the Indians were Wen fed while the resery-
alton. Several Indian agents attacked to adjotn.

AN administration organ thinks
that "the Republican Senat orial cau-
Gus, in unanimously selecting Senator
Carpenter of Wisconsin to act as Pres
ident pro tenn. of the Senate during the
absence of the Vice-President, placed
its stigma upon what is known as the
Long Branch slander, and renewed its
confidence in the integrity and ability
Of the Senator from Wisconsin," On
the contrary, it is the opinion of those
not blinded by party prejudice, that
the Republican Senators have placed
stigma on themselves, which can
not be removed. If Senator Carpen-
ter is innocent, why does he not accept
the challenge of the New York Tri-
6une and establish his innocence in a
court that is not so easily influenced
by political considerations as Repub-
lican caucus.

The Eucalyptus.

We have before called attention to
this beautiful and valuable tree and
urged our people to plant. Its rapid
growth and elegant proportions makes
it highly ornamental tree on the
farm, and we can imagine no more at
tractive vista than an avenue of these
tall and graceful trees. Its timber is
also among the most valuable for all
purposes and it has been fully demon-
strated that its growth is certain
means Of dispelling miasmatic influ-
ences, plantation of these trees, hav-
ing in numerous cases transformed a
fever stricken swamp into dry
healthful locality. The Eucalyptus
grows here with astonishing rapidity.
Its culture is simple, and there is no
reason why it should not be extensive
ly planted. We have no very large
specimens, as it has only been planted
within few years, but it comes for
ward so fast in this land of wonderful
growths, only brief period will elapse
before those now started will be mag
nificent forest trees. The largest tree
of the kind in the State is only seven
teen years old from tina seed, and it is
nearly if not quite 100 feet high, and
the trunk measures two feet in dame
ter at the ground, tapering to the top
like a finely proportioned flag pole.
An exchange describes it as resem-
bling tree that has grown in the for
est, instead of standing by itself OH
comparatively open ground. The bark
is smooth and the trunk free from
limbs about half its height. 1t is
still growing vigorously, aud doubtless
will in a few years. more make tree
that will attract universal attention,
by its size and beauty.

A One Term Convert.

The administration press have been
very slow to see the advantage of re-
stricting the President to single
term, and have steadily argued that it
Is good policy to re-elect good Chief
Magistrate as often as he will serve,
while the people can be trusted to re-
tire a bad one to private life. When
the boot is OH the other leg, however,
they have no difficulty in understand
ing the necessity of the adoption of
such a principle, and hence we are not
surprised that the San Diego Union,
aggravated by the election of Booth,
favors the amendment of our Consti-
tuition so as to prohibit the Governor
from reelection, and making him in
eligible to the United States Senate,
during his term of Office. II there is
anything in the one term principle,
when applied to the Presidency, it cer-
tainly has the same force In the Gov
ernors case, but the Union ought to
know that it is out of the power OF the
State to prescribe the qualifications of
Los Angeles daily herald., 1873-12-25

IT is refreshing to know that United
States Senators still have some regard
for the fitness of things, and that
there is still one office, that of Chief
Justice, for which the applicant must
present clean hands and an untarnish-
ed record. The telegraph announces
that Senators will vote to reject Will
liams for his completely in smothering
the investigation Of the Oregon cleo
tion frauds, and for helping himself to
family carriage out of the Contingent
Fund of his department. Williams
can of course retort, "you're another"
but then the Office OF Senator has no.
toriously been subject to purchase and
sale, while the Chief Justiceship is as
yet untainted.

a United States Senator. That little
job has been taken off its hands by the
Constitution of the United States
which makes the Senate the judge of
the qualifications of its own members.
The State of Illinois in the COnstitu-
tion of ls4S provided that no judicial
officer of the State should be eligible
to an election to either branch of Con-
gress, but the Legislature elected
Judge Trumbull, and the Senate held
that he was entitled to his seat. No
principle is better established than
that a State cannot establish different
or additional qualifications to those
already fixed, and the Union is only
making an exhibition of childish rage,
by proposing such an amendment.

The Bakersfield Courier says a COM
pany of practical farmers from San Jose
have filed articles of incorporation for
the construction Of an irrigating ditch
on the north side of Kern River. The
ditch Is to commence at point well
up in the foothills, and it's Immediate
purpose Is to water an extensive tract
that Is believed to be spe cially adapted
to fruit culture, but its usefulness will
only be limited by the distance to
which 1T may be carried. When COM
pleted, the improvement will bring un-
der cultivation an extensive area OF
productive land. The farmers who
bear the expense of construction will

JAS. H. MCCONNELL of Springfield
Illinois, has been experimenting fol
several years with the Indian Mallow,
hardy and rapid growing weed, and
claims that its fiber is superior to jute
for the manufacture of bagging. The
plant is easily raised, growing from
five to fifteen feet high doing best on
good corn land and seems we'll adapt
ed to our climate. David Wilson OF
Santa Cruz has grown it to some ex-
tent, and will give information to any

There were no relatives Of the family
present except those mentioned above.
The presents were few and Of modest

president being to avoid any gossip or
