much idea of constitution and laws as a tad
pole, we will be compelled to look among the
rough trappers and 'front.' .rSmen for the two
Senators whose votes will have equal weight
with those from New York-the representatives
of five millions of people. In Colorado the
population is decidedly better, if it is much
smaller. 1t consists mostly of Americans, ut
all events of people Of Saxon type, and it has
among its wealthy mine owners material out
of which pasSible statesmen may be made, men
who will rank with your Stewards, JoneSes and
Sharons. On account of the amendments, the
bills will be returned to the House and may
fail after ALL As to the Civil Rights bill, that
has become Il law. Since it Eas been shorn of
the mixed school feature it is not so obnoxious
to us as it was before. But it is sufficiently so
under any circumstances The most objection
able feature now contained in it is that in rela-
ton to the juries, but we believe when case
is properly presented to the Supreme Court it
will declare the act unconstitutional in this
and other respects. In the meantime it is like
| ~ to bear with hardship on hotel proprietOrs,
| for if they do not entertain the negroes they
make themselves liable to the penalties of the
law, and if they do receive them they will
drive away their white customers, who have
not yet been educated up to the point of eatn g
and sleeping with these odorous sons of Ham.
In the House il will be seen that the odious
Force bill providing for the suspension of the
writ of habeGs corpus, was at last got before
that body after q desperate resistance on the
part of the Democrats and then passed. Thus
is presen' ed TO the country the spectacle of a
party which has been repudiated in the Con-
| gressional elections resorting to the most des-
perate and questionable means, not only TO
continue in the hands of the Executive powers
never dreamed of or exercised BY any President,
but to enlarge them to such an extent as to give
him absolute control of all of the Southern
States. Because if Congress gives him this
power in four States he will not hesitate TO as
sumo it in any of the others, if necessary to re-
elect himself, especially As he will know that
because OF the suhserviency of the majority
of the Senate impeachment hy the House would
fail. The bill! got before the House by "a
trick of that arch-fend Ben Butler, and was
adopted by the votes of over one hundred Re
pubicanS, who have been repudiatei by their
constituencies. What may be its fate in the
Senate will be known when this reacleS our
readers. We cannot tell ut the present writing
further than the Democrats have determined
to defeat il if possible and the better to DO so
| they have made but little fight against the
Civil Rights iniqniiy, outstanding all their
strength for this occasion. We fear the wors,
but hope for the best.

SAN FRANCISCO, October IL.

SAN FRANCISCO, October IL.
The Directors of the Woodville
Consolidated Mining Company, at
. meeting this morning, postponed
the sale Of delinquent stock until
IL o'clock tomorrow morning.
They also ordered an abstract OF
title to all the property to be made
out, together with q statement OF
all money received and disbursed
by the corporation since its forma-
ton, the same to be prepared and
published. They further ordered
that hereafter any bona fide stock
holder might examine the books
OF the company, provided not more
than two persons can have use OF
the books at the same time. A
committee appointed by dissatisfied
stockholders will meet this evening
to decide upon some course OF
action. It is said some determined
move will be made to get at the
truth in regard to the affairs of the
company, and that tae committee
will lose no time in pushing an ex-
animation of the books and &C.
counts.
SAN DIEGO, October II.
Advlccs from Temescal show that
the Indian difficulties are by no
means over, Notwithstanding recent
reports to that effect. Oigario, with
his band, collected in the vicinity and
are holding conferences. The people
are again becoming alarmed, and
Goldbaum Brothers, merchants at
San Luis Rey and Monscrate, have
ordered the goods in the latter place
to be sent to San Luis Rey, and in
the letter to the forwarding mer-
chants they say that there 10 no tell
ing how the Indian difficulty will
end, and they deem it advisable not
to ship any more goods to Monse-
rate. Some gentlemen who came in
from that vicinity last night, say
Goldbaum and other old settlers are
ready to leave on moments notice.
Others have brought their families to
thicker settlements. Runners are
going between Oligario and Coach
nallels, and should they join them in
the event of an outbreak, it would be
a bad time to trihe and might bring
on collision, and war would be the
result Men who have been here for
years insist that troops should be
sent into the district without delay to
maintain peace until the Government
can make suitable arrangements to
maintain the Indians. Indian Agent
Dryden has just returned from there
and says that the danger of a con-
tlict is not and cannot be past until
something is done by the Govern
ment for the Indians. Oligario is =
bad Indian and ha. great deal Of
influence with his people, and refuses
t. stem to mild counsels. He
wanted the agent to put the Indians
back on the ranch where they were
and keep them there. Dryden told
him he had no power to do this, at
which Oligario was vers angry and
talked threateningly. Dryden says
he does not exaggerate the danger,
and believes the conflict cannot be
kept off for any length of time, and
that it is liable to occur at any mo-
ment.

on ITS LAST LEGS.

Tho San Francisco Chronicle"
having stated that the Bulletin"
Vas publishing advertisements gra-
tuitously and for the sake of keep
ing up appearances, the " Post, in
. series OF comments upon the
dying slanderer, says:
Under these circumstances, it
may be predicted that the "Bul-
letin" at least will soon be offered
for sale. It is sinking money at
such rate now that nothing less
than bonanza mine could keep it
going. In fact we hear that the
sale Of the Bulletin" is already
determined upon. The excuse will
be quarrel between the confeder-
ates, the object being to get rid of
the elephant at any price before it
dies outright.
Should the prediction of the
post" prove true, the failure Of the
Bulletin" would be q Just recoil
upon the despicable men who con-
troll it. Whatever may have been
the faults of Mr.. Ralston, they af-
ford no palliation for the vindictive
and ghoulish course pursued by
the Bulletin" in its warfare
against him. Courses, like chick
ems, come home to roost."
