STATE Minrrany SuHooL.—The interest
awskened in our State since the commences
ment of this war, has resulted in.much improvement inthe militia. The Legislature
by liberal appropriations of money has done
much to organize and drill the various come,
panies. lithe report of Adjutant General
Kibbe, he recommends a military schoo!.—
He proposes to engraft the school upon some
State institution ; that “one young man shall
be sent from each Senatorial and Assembly
district, free from charge for instruction,
with the simple pledge to impart the instruc.
tion when required to militia” encampments
in the State.’
He says euch an institution; “would bea
“Regimental School, where elementary and
practical knowledge ofthe agience andart of
war, in the service of three years unigit be
acquired, less comprebensive, but not less
practical than tho National School at West
Point, and Wesigning erpecially to qualify
tlie regimental, stuff, company and platoon
_ officers for effective service.”
Phe State has now a large University
fund, donated by Congress. The practicas
——bilty of connecting with such an institution
mmilitary_drill, has been demonstrated in
older States. Why moy it net be done in
California? Fhe ediestional interests of
the State demand the establishment of a4
University at an early doy, and itwould be
much— more. econemieat, and equally as

other responsible parties for a Daily Mail,

Srraeiking Ricuw Ore.—Reeently,. in
blasting through’ a deep rock cut for the
Central Railroad, near Neweastle Gap, a vein
of rich copper ore, and also plumbago or
black lead was disclosed to view. It caused
great excitement, and numerous claims were
. immediately staked off. The copper vein
is evidently a part of the great vein in Ama
‘dor county on whieh the Newton lead is lo»
_ eated, and. connected with the ledes lying
“near the new town of Wilson. The numerous rock cTttings on ‘the new ling will undoubtedly disclose many new minerals, and
thus tend to develop the resotirces of the

The most amusing part of the Examiner. is,

AN TES NG Law Decision —Some titie ngo George F. Hooper brought
suit.in foe Twellth District Court, against
Wells; Fargo-& Co's Express, for the re»
covery of a certait-aun of movey entrusted
te them in the City of bes Angeles-to—bring

Hancock. The defendants claimed. that
they were not. diablo for the lose of the:
money, because the plaintiff bad, whenens
‘trusting the money to their charge, signed a
‘contract exempting them from damages
which might occur -from the usual dangers”
of navigation. Hall McAllister, .who appeared for the plaintiff, contended that as
common carriers they were liable, and that
they-could not contract -apainat carelessness
oftheir own, oF their agents’ negligence ;
sult of carelesspess, they were responsible
for the loa.” The Gise otctipied the greater
portion of twodays, and resulted in ‘A judgment for the plaintiff’ for $11,740-87. ‘Fhe

Hexty Winer Davis on ConriscaTION OF. SEAVES.—Henry Winter Davia of
Murylind, in areply made in Congress, to te
rember who argued that slaves cannot be
tuken by the Government becnuse they are
property, completely demolished the Copperhead argument. The following from his
speech was reevived with great farut by the
House ; \
“I desire, eategorially, te deny that ass
sumption a8 a pointet law. The Constitution of the Umted States never recognized
aslave as property. Huis property, not by

date authorizes Congress totax them as persons not exceeding ten dollars. They are
Airected to be surrendered up when they
shall bave fled from service. They are then
treated (as persons and not as property.—
They are known as property to the laws of
“the States. Onegentleman said that the local law of a State can so change the relations
between men thatgt con exempt them from
thernilitary service of the United States.—
They ploce. the existenesof—the—Hnited
States atthe mercy of the subordinate law
uf the States ; for they declare that every

UNIONISMAN Now rts Qaroiina.—The
NewberoTimes says: Frourall we, bear
we think we are entirely warranted inl&ayip that the result of the recent rebelwid
to this locality has done no hari, but; ef
the contrary, has tended to strengthen Unie
on sentiment, Men and women, whe are
heartily for the Union, are sew more bold
and decided than ever in giving expression
to their opinions. We eanaot for a moment
doubt that should a strong Federal force
wove direetly to the capital of the State and
univ the old starry beoner from the eapie
building, it would be hailed with shouts of
now living under the Jeff. Davis deepotism.”

that he had purchased the printing material
