nq SUNDAY, DEC'R 10, 1865, THe SENATORIAL Question. —The eleetien of ‘@ Senator to succeed McDougal, is now the leading tepic among the people, although seme politicians seem to ignore, entirely, the fact that the people have aoy‘thing to do with the matter. Our readers will remember that about the close of the primary contests in the Union party of this State, Governor Low, efter having] entered the lists as a candidate for the Senate, aad being defeated in almost every county, on the eve of the election in San Francisco, published a letter*in which he pretended to . withdraw his name from: the contest. It was charged then that the Governor was not actaated by honest motives, and the charge was veheniently denied by Low's friends. The fact that the letter was pub-lished after the defeat of Low before the people, was net calculated te convince any one that claims of honesty, integrity, and a desire for harmony. made in the letter, were well grounded. Immediately upon the publication of Low’s letter, everywhere that _ his friénds stood the least show of success, they bolted the party aud made a fight outside of the organization. Since the meeting of the Legislature, it has become spparent that the friends of Low are determined, in spite of the will of the Union party expressed in the primaries, and afterwards confirmed by. the people in the General election, to.make Low the successor of Mc’ Dougal. We cannot believe.they will suc-. céed, for we think that the members’ of the Legislature will not disregard the will of the people in this respect. They are sent to Sacramento to represent the people, and certainly will net, entirely, ignore the expressed wishes of their constituents. It is well known that the leading issue in the primary contests of the Union party, prior to the general election, was the Senatorial question, and that the popular verdict was adverse to Governor Low, Decency ‘would dictate, under the circumstances, that he should abandon the contest, but he * has decided otherwise, and it becomes the duty of the Legislature to see to it that the people of the State are not overridden by the selfish little knot of corrupt politicians who are determined to rule the State. Cal{ ifornia has had enough of this accursed bargain and sale business. She now wants a Senator who can stand as a man among his fellows, independent of all factions and “¢liques, and who is capable of guarding her interests. Low has been in Congress, and was tliere far behind every member of the California delegatiun. Not a single measure iatroduced or carried through reeeived any assistance from him. Without the qualificatiuns for the position of a Senator, and the tool of unprincipled politicians, what would become of the interests of the State with Low for her Senator ? THe GoveRNon’s ; MessaGe.—The Gov, eraot’s bi-ennial message has been sent to the Legislature. He shows. the financial condition of the State, to be excellent, and that the receipts have been in excess of the,}. expenditures. He gives a report of progress upon the State Capitol buildings, and rec ommends a committee for the thorough examination of the affairs of the Insane Asylum. The management of the State prison ho reports improved. He quotes from statistics of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, and reeommends the continuation of the half mill State tax. and that the minimum of county tax, be inereased te three dollar fur eneh child. The Gov. ernor thinks that the culture of rive and sorghum, would give “profitable -employment to the Asiatic populativa which is tending to our shores.” He urges the em tablichment of a State University, and says a registry law is demanded by ‘‘every con sideration of public policy.” He suggests an apportionment by the State, fora national monument te Lincoln, and also suggests a State moaument for Gea. Wrigh. He favors negro suffrage as the shortest way of ending military rule 10 the rebel States, and treate Jéhnson’s policy as an experiment . which may fail. tt Waren.—The, Eureka habe Canal Co’, having completed the repairs on their ditch, @ flume of which was recently torn down by some evil disposed iudividuale, are now runding water, to the great satisfaction of all owners of mines on the Ridge. re Tue Bee beads ‘an item about the Grass Valley and El Dorado.” The editor has. rata ee ‘. Sunday at 3 o’clock, P. M. Nevada Turopike, “Roads in. . Tue Tipe Tugnen.—Some months ago ". the departures from our’ const were greatly in exeess of the arrivals, and by several journals it .was predicted that the State would be almost depopulated. The tide has now changed, and the excess is on the other side. Now we suppose the “wise ones” will be equally alarmed at the prospectof sich an increase of population; as the State-will be unable te sustain. In the Spring and Summer, when water is scarce, the miners of this State take occasion to visit their homes in the East, and at. that season many from -all the mining counties leave the State. Inthe Winter, when the time for work comes, they return to this State. After the war closed, many also desired to go and see the fields of battle, and a few went with the purpose of remaining in the East. We hear of a dozen old, residents of this county who are expected to return within a month to this coast. The opportunity afforded during the dry season:to visit old homes and friends was taken advantage of, and they aretiow on their way ‘back, and expect to arrive in time to reap the golden harvest from the mines during the ‘ present season. steamers are many old Californians, who in the East find no Place like their adopted State. The tide of our population ebbs and . lows, but-in neither is there any cause fo : alarm. PREACHING SUNDAY .—Rev. D. A. Dryden will preach at the M. E. Church, on Broad st, Sunday morning at ‘11 o’clock, and in the evening at-7 o'clock. Sunday School at 14 P. M. “Rev. R. B. Snowden will preach at the Congregational church Sunday at 11 o'clock A.

Any person engax ged in actual mining operations will be eligible to a seat. We hope that a good delegatioa will attend from this county. » sane A PARTY of. young men, a short time since, while digging for roots some miles aorth of Vincennes, Iudiana, discovered an old leather sack contuining $7,000 in gold and $8,000 in silver. It is supposed that it had been concealed there by robbers.
