Broderick, but wedike his speech. We like it} more for the position it takes than the peculiar manner and matter of though we do not affect to despise either We like the speech beeause it ennuneiates the same opinions . it, f the latter. that we have held onthe policy of abrovating the Missouri Compromise,and the ame views we promulgated against the Presidents recommendations for Kansas. We took a position alone on the Presi. While every other newspaper in the State had nothing but dent’s Message. landatory phrases for the message or . was silent, the JouRNAL boldly showed . up the miserable pettifogging of Bu. chanan on the subject of Kansas, It . was not till after another steamer had brought intelligence of the unequivocal . position assumed by Douglas, that the press of this State came flatfooted to denounce the Kansas part of Buckanan’s wessagze, and to proclaim it pregnant . with iniquity. The course we took in the outset found lukewarm supporters in this State. ‘The press committed itself here too early, in praising the message as a great statesman like and nationai document. A Prentice was not here to ! conviet it of violence to Lindley Murray, . and a Douglas was wanting among the Jemoeracy to lay bare the wrongs it . sought to inflict on a free people. The efforts we made to stir up a feeling of ' antagonism to the administration were . The waited to hear the key note of a leader of not sufficient avail. people nefore they sounded. Some of our cotemporaries made arrangements not to like ourremarks on the Kansas part of the message. But, while all this mutual admiration . was going on ia California, Broderick . felt gritty at Washington and said so. . He had a mind and expressed it boldly and fearlessly. He said early that when the Lecompton Constitution came up for ratification by Congress he should . have something to say. He has re. ileemed his promise. ‘The speech vindicates free labor, the rights of the people of Kansas to form their own constisets forth the true doctrine tution, of . popular sovereignty in liberal quotarions from Webster, and piteously ke. stows a few closing remarks on the imbecility of James Buchanan. Broderick stock is on the rise. Gwin . is lett, a very ancient fossil, while Brodcrick is living, resurgent and tull of life aud promise to the people, for he has espoused their cause, and without an . effort he has put himself on the popular track. Tue Kansas Imsprocuio—Wuat It . rKACHES.—T othe bitter partisans in tke last great the . Presidential struggle, Kansas question teaches a salutary lesson which should not be lost in like contests to come. On the one side noth. ng was too bad to be charged against the Americans and Republicans. They . were enemies of the country and traitors . to it. They were striving toe disfran. chise, the Americans the lish, and the . Repubkeans the South. In this tirade Douglas admirers were not . and his sifent, but loaned all their power to increase and perpetuate it. Vituperation . characterized the eanvas from that political side. Nor, on the other hand, were the same vile weapons discarded. Douglas escaped no epithet of contempt v dishonor. The shafts of his opponents were leveled constantly and unweariedly at his head. He was branded is an Arnold, a traitor, and deserving of a trattor’s doom. The fire and the smoke of that contest having ceased and cleared away, we sce these former malignant opponents uight last, about a mile from town, and ‘robbed of $21,000. /ontin company about 1 o’clock. IN, ; armed, . hension jat least to fo'low the robbers. Stage Rcbdery. The stage having on board the treas/ure box of Wells, Fargo & Co. was stop. eone ped by five men in disguise on Sunday Two stages staited Dawley who was riding with the driver onthe foremost stage discovered a man ahead staggering towards the stage and supposed him drunk. Coming alongside the horses, he reeled towards them and suddenly caught hold of the reins. The stage stopped. Dawley asked him sharply what he was about. The robber dropped the reins and presented a double barrel shot gun. Dawley felt for his pistol, but while doing so the muzzle of another gun appeared close to his breast from the other side of the . stage, and he was ordered to desist . from his purpose. The robbers detianded the express boxes. The driver told them that wrs not the express stage. They told him they knew better, to pass . out the boxes and be quick about it. Vawley examined the boot under the seat and after a moment told them they might shoot as there was no express box aboard. ‘The robbers then said, “drive on.” Dawley had $20,000 belonging to Marx & Co., in his possession. The other stage by this time was not far behind and the robbers made for it. Dawley urged some of the passengers . to go back to the assistance of the other stage, but without success. John O'Brien was riding with the driver on the other stage and was unThe demand for the specie box was complied with. The foremost stage was so near the other that the fall of the box on the ground was distinctly heard bythe passergers. The box was split open with an axe near where the robjbery was committed and $21,000 in . charge of Wells, Fargo & Co., taken. The treasure consisted in two bars of over $7,000 each, and the remainder in coin and dust. The bars were shipped by Birdseye & Co. On arriving at Grass Valley, Dawley and O’Brien returned to Nevada and . cave the necessary information. der-Sheriff Van Hagan started in pursuit, and hand-bills were immediately . issued offering a reward of $3,000 for the recovery of the property and appreof the Van Hagan found the box rifled of its contents, and at daylight attempted to track the robHe followed the trail to MeCarty’s rauch where it became lost.— Finding two men in bed under suspicious circumstances in a cabin not far off from the ranch, he took them in custody and robbers. bers. On one of the men were founda number of burglarous looklodged them in jail. ing instruments. The miners living in the vicinity of the cabin in which the . arrest was made, have long looked with suspicion upon its inmates. It seems strange that out of twentlysix passengers in the two stages none were found to attempt a resistance, or Had a few men hung upon the retreat, followjing at a respectable distance till the treasure was deposited, they might have rendered service to the public as well as an Express company, and done an act . worthy of themselves. From the exertions being put forth to . discover the robbers and the stolen treasure, we have the utmost confidence that . both will be secured. Charter Elections.—The times are getting sadly out of joint when the only organized party in the country cannot, by dint of the most desperate efforts sneceed in winning a municipal election. It would seem that the sceptre of the Democracy is broken, or, since Broderick has ceased to act in concert with the other wing, the party has been shorn of its strength. In the city election of 1700 majority over the regular Demonominees. eleetion terminated the same way. The people’s ticket swept the city by a fine majority. But two menon the Democratic joined together ina league to put down wreng and oppression and secure the rights of a people. That great Democratic party whose success was to be the salvation of the country proved impotent for good when the crisis came. The proscriptive Know Nothings loaned a Bev. and Critrenpen tothe Democracy to carry out their scheme of salThe Republicans, those black, sectional, disturbers of the publie peace vation. and Union destroyers, contributed some hundred representatives to help thirty Democrats in preserving the country, and the greatly lauded zn] pre-eminently glorious principles of Squatter Severeignty in their purity. The opposition that was so much denounced and so greatly to be dreaded has not only saved the Union, but the Democratic party from an abandonment of its principles, andthe Douglas wing has, notwithstanding the hard name its members were once forced to bear, been found very convenient, useful, honest and honorable men by their former enemies. ‘Phe lesson teaches us noderation «nd gharity in polities—to concede to others of different. views a portion, at claim for ourselves.

We extract the following information erning the newly discovered gold fields on our north-western frontier from the Pioneer and Democrat of April 16th, a paper published at Olympia, Washington Territory. There is a large emigration to the . mines from Washington and Oregon T er'ritories. The report of ajparty that had . returned to Bellingham Bay direct from the mines for the purpose cf procuring . tools and goods for trade, was that gold was plenty and the Indians friendly, A report wasin ciculation that the Hudson's Bay Company intended to . place asteamer on Frazier’s River, to . form a blockade against American tra. ding vessels furnishing siipplies for the miners—thus securitg for British trading points the exclusive furnishing and for. warding monopoly. This report, however, does not seem to be believed implicitly. A road meeting had been held at Whatcom, Bellingham Bay, to open a . land communication through American territory to the mines, instead of being . dependent on Frazier River and at the caprice of British authorities. Five hundred dollars had been subscribed for the Road and a strong party of men put at . work upon it. It was expected that . pack vnimals could pass the road about the first ef May. Pack animals are searee, and of course dear. The road shortens the distance greatly. By computation the land route from Bellingham . Bay to the mines is only about ninety . miles, while the water route is near two hundred. A considerable quantity of gold from the mines has found its way to the set. tlements for the purchase of supplies. . Specimens of coarse gold have been exhibited to the editor of the Pioneer ard Democrat, weighing from ten cents to one dollar, Almost every Indian on . Frazier's River is represented to have from one to six inches of dust in his purse. The gold is said to be easily obtainable. . taken place among the hands employed {in the lumber mills and the sailors in . Washington Territory. The Pioneer, and Democrat of the . week following the number from which . we extract the above, speaks of the . to a perfect certainty. Several Nevadans we understand are } on their way to the newly discovered . gold fields, and it would be well to await . their report before getting the yellow fever badly. Ciry Evection.—The most quiet . election we have ever seen was the one j . of Monday last. The only contest was for the office of Marshal, and but little . strife was made for that. . number of votes polled is evidence of the want of interest in the election.— But five hundred and sixty-four votes The small were depositedyin the ballot bex.

James Curtis, Chief of Police, was to-day arrested and locked up in the county jail, on account of refusing to give up the $16,000 reclaimed from the Cornelia. The claimants refuse to pay salvage or allow him cost in going to Mexico for it, and Curtis declines giving up the money until his officers are paid for their trouble.

AN Incorrigipte Tuigr.--A Sydney duck was arraigned before Justice Anderson on Tuesday charged with stealing a pair of boots from the store of . Wm. R. Coe. The scamp had been detected several times before in attemptThe boots were found in his possession, recognized and laid up inthe Justice’s . office while Sydney looked for bail.— Coming back to the office Constable Burmeister was left to have an eye on him. By some unaccountable process the thief managed to spirit the boots away the second time so effectually that Syaney was treated to 60 days board in the Hotel de Lenhart—a favorite lodging place with him. Man Drowsep.—Coroner Bazley held an inquest on the 4th inst. on the body of one John Brown, who was found by Mr. Jillson foreed under a dam on Bear River near Treble’s Crossing.— The evidence produced before the coroner’s jury showed that Brown called at Treble’s and obtained # bottle of milk and two of whisky on the 23d of Mareh. Since that time nothing more was seen or heard of him till discovered by Mr. Jillson. The supposition is that whisky, milk and Bear River water did’nt agree with John Brown’s constitution. “THe Hespertan.”—A new paper has made its appearance on our table, called . ‘The Hesperian.’ It is published at San Francisco by James H. Kerr, Mrs. A. M. Shultz and Mrs. F. H. Day, and edited by the two ladies. It is devoted to literature and the ladies, is semi-mouthly, and furnished at $4 per annum.— Mrs. Shultz is an authoress of reputation and we doubt not the Hesperian under her guidance will be a credit to the literature of the State.

The public life of Hamilton spiral with the fall of federalism. The same } wisdom, the same American feeling and . love of country characterized him asdid Jefferson. Nobody ealls in question the . stupendous ability with which he assisted to framé the administration of the government, restored order to its finances, gave support to our credit, and impressed upon us to be impartial when our first friend had become a republic and our first enemy was fighting her. As a lawyer he was wise, safe and . just; and took rank as the leader of the bar. Mr. Choate meutioned instanees of Hamilton’s uprightness it professional dealings, and spoké of his defence ot Croswell for libel, in 1804. as his masterpiece, and as nearly the grandest display of the bar—one which is indelibly inscribed on the written and uuwritte: statutes of America. There and then, in that argument, he graved on our public law, as with a peu of steel upon an obelisk fronting the sun, the doctrine that truth, from right motives and for justifiable ends, may be safely written on anybody, high or low. He was a thorough and deep reasoner, and his eloquence was singularly powerful. Hamilton’s labors, as the editor of the Federalist, aud the remarkable precociousness of his intellect were spoken of. He began to speak at the age of eighteen, and at that age was among the ablest of our writersin the great controversy with England. At twentyfour he wrote that masterly letter to Duane, anticipating the provisions of the Constitution ; at thirty-two he wrote for the Federalist, and at thirty-eight he ceased to be a public man. Saving Paschal, Cexsar, aud Napoleon, it is doubtful if vaster or purer powers have been exhibited by man. Sorrowful Little Company.— The Beacon says that 8. J.

Broderick, but wedike his speech. We like it} more for the position it takes than the peculiar manner and matter of though we do not affect to despise either We like the speech beeause it ennuneiates the same opinions . it, f the latter. that we have held onthe policy of abrovating the Missouri Compromise,and the ame views we promulgated against the Presidents recommendations for Kansas. We took a position alone on the Presi. While every other newspaper in the State had nothing but dent’s Message. landatory phrases for the message or . was silent, the JouRNAL boldly showed . up the miserable pettifogging of Bu. chanan on the subject of Kansas, It . was not till after another steamer had brought intelligence of the unequivocal . position assumed by Douglas, that the press of this State came flatfooted to denounce the Kansas part of Buckanan’s wessagze, and to proclaim it pregnant . with iniquity. The course we took in the outset found lukewarm supporters in this State. ‘The press committed itself here too early, in praising the message as a great statesman like and nationai document. A Prentice was not here to ! conviet it of violence to Lindley Murray, . and a Douglas was wanting among the Jemoeracy to lay bare the wrongs it . sought to inflict on a free people. The efforts we made to stir up a feeling of ' antagonism to the administration were . The waited to hear the key note of a leader of not sufficient avail. people nefore they sounded. Some of our cotemporaries made arrangements not to like ourremarks on the Kansas part of the message. But, while all this mutual admiration . was going on ia California, Broderick . felt gritty at Washington and said so. . He had a mind and expressed it boldly and fearlessly. He said early that when the Lecompton Constitution came up for ratification by Congress he should . have something to say. He has re. ileemed his promise. ‘The speech vindicates free labor, the rights of the people of Kansas to form their own constisets forth the true doctrine tution, of . popular sovereignty in liberal quotarions from Webster, and piteously ke. stows a few closing remarks on the imbecility of James Buchanan. Broderick stock is on the rise. Gwin . is lett, a very ancient fossil, while Brodcrick is living, resurgent and tull of life aud promise to the people, for he has espoused their cause, and without an . effort he has put himself on the popular track. Tue Kansas Imsprocuio—Wuat It . rKACHES.—T othe bitter partisans in tke last great the . Presidential struggle, Kansas question teaches a salutary lesson which should not be lost in like contests to come. On the one side noth. ng was too bad to be charged against the Americans and Republicans. They . were enemies of the country and traitors . to it. They were striving toe disfran. chise, the Americans the lish, and the . Repubkeans the South. In this tirade Douglas admirers were not . and his sifent, but loaned all their power to increase and perpetuate it. Vituperation . characterized the eanvas from that political side. Nor, on the other hand, were the same vile weapons discarded. Douglas escaped no epithet of contempt v dishonor. The shafts of his opponents were leveled constantly and unweariedly at his head. He was branded is an Arnold, a traitor, and deserving of a trattor’s doom. The fire and the smoke of that contest having ceased and cleared away, we sce these former malignant opponents uight last, about a mile from town, and ‘robbed of $21,000. /ontin company about 1 o’clock. IN, ; armed, . hension jat least to fo'low the robbers. Stage Rcbdery. The stage having on board the treas/ure box of Wells, Fargo & Co. was stop. eone ped by five men in disguise on Sunday Two stages staited Dawley who was riding with the driver onthe foremost stage discovered a man ahead staggering towards the stage and supposed him drunk. Coming alongside the horses, he reeled towards them and suddenly caught hold of the reins. The stage stopped. Dawley asked him sharply what he was about. The robber dropped the reins and presented a double barrel shot gun. Dawley felt for his pistol, but while doing so the muzzle of another gun appeared close to his breast from the other side of the . stage, and he was ordered to desist . from his purpose. The robbers detianded the express boxes. The driver told them that wrs not the express stage. They told him they knew better, to pass . out the boxes and be quick about it. Vawley examined the boot under the seat and after a moment told them they might shoot as there was no express box aboard. ‘The robbers then said, “drive on.” Dawley had $20,000 belonging to Marx & Co., in his possession. The other stage by this time was not far behind and the robbers made for it. Dawley urged some of the passengers . to go back to the assistance of the other stage, but without success. John O'Brien was riding with the driver on the other stage and was unThe demand for the specie box was complied with. The foremost stage was so near the other that the fall of the box on the ground was distinctly heard bythe passergers. The box was split open with an axe near where the robjbery was committed and $21,000 in . charge of Wells, Fargo & Co., taken. The treasure consisted in two bars of over $7,000 each, and the remainder in coin and dust. The bars were shipped by Birdseye & Co. On arriving at Grass Valley, Dawley and O’Brien returned to Nevada and . cave the necessary information. der-Sheriff Van Hagan started in pursuit, and hand-bills were immediately . issued offering a reward of $3,000 for the recovery of the property and appreof the Van Hagan found the box rifled of its contents, and at daylight attempted to track the robHe followed the trail to MeCarty’s rauch where it became lost.— Finding two men in bed under suspicious circumstances in a cabin not far off from the ranch, he took them in custody and robbers. bers. On one of the men were founda number of burglarous looklodged them in jail. ing instruments. The miners living in the vicinity of the cabin in which the . arrest was made, have long looked with suspicion upon its inmates. It seems strange that out of twentlysix passengers in the two stages none were found to attempt a resistance, or Had a few men hung upon the retreat, followjing at a respectable distance till the treasure was deposited, they might have rendered service to the public as well as an Express company, and done an act . worthy of themselves. From the exertions being put forth to . discover the robbers and the stolen treasure, we have the utmost confidence that . both will be secured. Charter Elections.—The times are getting sadly out of joint when the only organized party in the country cannot, by dint of the most desperate efforts sneceed in winning a municipal election. It would seem that the sceptre of the Democracy is broken, or, since Broderick has ceased to act in concert with the other wing, the party has been shorn of its strength. In the city election of 1700 majority over the regular Demonominees. eleetion terminated the same way. The people’s ticket swept the city by a fine majority. But two menon the Democratic joined together ina league to put down wreng and oppression and secure the rights of a people. That great Democratic party whose success was to be the salvation of the country proved impotent for good when the crisis came. The proscriptive Know Nothings loaned a Bev. and Critrenpen tothe Democracy to carry out their scheme of salThe Republicans, those black, sectional, disturbers of the publie peace vation. and Union destroyers, contributed some hundred representatives to help thirty Democrats in preserving the country, and the greatly lauded zn] pre-eminently glorious principles of Squatter Severeignty in their purity. The opposition that was so much denounced and so greatly to be dreaded has not only saved the Union, but the Democratic party from an abandonment of its principles, andthe Douglas wing has, notwithstanding the hard name its members were once forced to bear, been found very convenient, useful, honest and honorable men by their former enemies. ‘Phe lesson teaches us noderation «nd gharity in polities—to concede to others of different. views a portion, at claim for ourselves.

The thief) He . saw the movement and all hands hurried Frazier River Gold Fields. We extract the following information erning the newly discovered gold fields on our north-western frontier from the Pioneer and Democrat of April 16th, a paper published at Olympia, Washington Territory. There is a large emigration to the . mines from Washington and Oregon T er'ritories. The report of ajparty that had . returned to Bellingham Bay direct from the mines for the purpose cf procuring . tools and goods for trade, was that gold was plenty and the Indians friendly, A report wasin ciculation that the Hudson's Bay Company intended to . place asteamer on Frazier’s River, to . form a blockade against American tra. ding vessels furnishing siipplies for the miners—thus securitg for British trading points the exclusive furnishing and for. warding monopoly. This report, however, does not seem to be believed implicitly. A road meeting had been held at Whatcom, Bellingham Bay, to open a . land communication through American territory to the mines, instead of being . dependent on Frazier River and at the caprice of British authorities. Five hundred dollars had been subscribed for the Road and a strong party of men put at . work upon it. It was expected that . pack vnimals could pass the road about the first ef May. Pack animals are searee, and of course dear. The road shortens the distance greatly. By computation the land route from Bellingham . Bay to the mines is only about ninety . miles, while the water route is near two hundred. A considerable quantity of gold from the mines has found its way to the set. tlements for the purchase of supplies. . Specimens of coarse gold have been exhibited to the editor of the Pioneer ard Democrat, weighing from ten cents to one dollar, Almost every Indian on . Frazier's River is represented to have from one to six inches of dust in his purse. The gold is said to be easily obtainable. . taken place among the hands employed {in the lumber mills and the sailors in . Washington Territory. The Pioneer, and Democrat of the . week following the number from which . we extract the above, speaks of the . to a perfect certainty. Several Nevadans we understand are } on their way to the newly discovered . gold fields, and it would be well to await . their report before getting the yellow fever badly.

The scamp had been detected several times before in attemptThe boots were found in his possession, recognized and laid up inthe Justice’s . office while Sydney looked for bail.— Coming back to the office Constable Burmeister was left to have an eye on him. By some unaccountable process the thief managed to spirit the boots away the second time so effectually that Syaney was treated to 60 days board in the Hotel de Lenhart—a favorite lodging place with him. Man Drowsep.—Coroner Bazley held an inquest on the 4th inst. on the body of one John Brown, who was found by Mr. Jillson foreed under a dam on Bear River near Treble’s Crossing.— The evidence produced before the coroner’s jury showed that Brown called at Treble’s and obtained # bottle of milk and two of whisky on the 23d of Mareh. Since that time nothing more was seen or heard of him till discovered by Mr. Jillson. The supposition is that whisky, milk and Bear River water did’nt agree with John Brown’s constitution. “THe Hespertan.”—A new paper has made its appearance on our table, called . ‘The Hesperian.’ It is published at San Francisco by James H.
