AWAY FROM THE PACIFIC COAST.

To the kind hand and thoughtful heart
of some friend we are indebted for a num-
Der of the Stockton Evening Mail. in The
folds of which were enclosed a number of
California spring wild flowers and foliage.
The fragrance of the heart when conveyed
through the beauty and aroma of flowers
can travel over desert, mountains and
chimes with little loss or incense or color,
like memory time and distance seem to
deepen and brighten both. Here's to thee,
friend, whoever thou art; may thy soul in
hfe's wanderings ever find delight in such
tributes and innocent tokens of apprecia-
ton OF the hearts of others even when
the identity of thine own is withheld.

sailed. The passcngeis ty the Saginaw
state that on the morning of the 9th Eve
of Lcgtiime's men of war, the Dessalines,
Belize, Toussaint andthe l. Overture, and
one other, bombarded Cape Hayti. The
foreign ccnsuls in the city, before the
beginning of the bombardmcnt, sent out
a petition to the commander Of the fleet
asking time to get out Of the citS'. They
were given thirty six hours TO eyacuatc
the town. The people fed intot he hills,
taking all the possessions til could
conveniently carry. The supply of
pack mulcs being limited TO fifty
or sixty the animals were in great demand
and fabulous prices were paid to convey
Il single mule load to place of safety.
| shortly after daybrcak on the second day
after the arrival Of She feet the Hayticn
officers trained their guns eli the town
and the bombardmcnt commenced. In a
few minutes shots began to tear through
the town, dcmolishing the frail structures,

the stone bitildihE in the central and
most elevated portions df the town were
not 20 easily destroyed, the heavy walls
resisting The fire for several hours.
Despite the warning they had received
to leave the fatal town many of the res
i,lents clung to their habita,ions In fact
it was impossible to remove many of the
sick in the city within the time allotted.
On top of nj! of the houses in which sick
pereon was known to be a white flag was

the persons who airis'4ei today could esti-
mate with with any degree OF accuracy
The number of killed, but it was thought
fifteen or twenty AT lcast succumhed to
the de IDLY fire. Legltime is by degrees
losing the confidence of the people and
most all sympathy is with the north.

sail from Hayti in charge Of mi American
crew which. sailed from here last week on

cred at an American roft subject to the
disposal of this government. Mr.. Austin,
one Of the agents, says he docsn sec
what eithSf Hayti or the Atlas people

whether they can bring the Hay.'en Re
public up here. She has no stores, nc
fuel, nor anything else on board, and
must be in bad condition.

lowing resolution, presented by Mr.. o.
Dyer, was adopted unanimously
Resolved, That we reatllrm the right Of this
territory to the rsiik and dignity OF state

that distinction because of her vast area and
great resources, htr progress in population
aud wealth, and the high position she has at.
tanned socially and intellectually. We re-
spectfnlly call upon congress to admit Mon
tana without imposing any obstacles that may
create, inasmuch as this territory has pre-
pared and adopted constitution, and is every
way qualified 10 undertake the duties and re.
sponsibilities of statehood.
1t was further resolved that copies Of
the resolution be sent to the secretary
Judge Race, to Hon. J. X. Toole and the
chairman of the territorial committee il
the house and in the senate.
