. and give him no ground at all to occupy.
Seriously, however, we merely alluded to
this subject to illdstrate the fact that the
. Republican influence in Missouri was only
apparent to the dainstructed, and not real.
At balf the pres¢nt prices of Negroes, as fifteen years ago, Missouri would be rapidly
increasing in ber slate population in the
production of hemp and tobacco ; but cotton is so high and rethunerative, tbat slave
labor is immensely diverted to the South.

Through in Six Days.
One of the most important items we have
gleaned {fom our exchanges for a long time
is the proposition made by Jas, Haworth,
President of the California Slage Company
to enter into a contract with the Government te run a daily Overland Mail between
. Sacramento and St. Louis for $1;Hd0,000
per year, and he furtier sayshe wodld be
willing to have the «cHedule timié filaced at
fourteen days fibm city tocity. He says;
in addition, that he wotlld also contract to
run a borse expreis between those twd points
. carrying letters lly welght;"and mite the
. time regularly in six diya:
This ix a startling preposition, but those
whd know the man are assured that what be
fopioses he will accomplish, ifhe can get
he contract. This ia one of the most, if not
the must important subject ever mooted in
California. Itis second only to the Pacific
Hailroad in importance.
The Red bluff Beacon tetomttends ¢ iat the
Legislature, as soon as it meets, pass concurrent tesolutions requesting Congrers to
contract with Mr. Haworth, for the trane:
portatic# of mail matter overland, by any
. route he thay select, upon the terms said to
. Have beét! proposed by him.
.
A KING FOR IRELAND!
. Tie Duke of Magenta, Marshal McMabor!
. Of the Yrench army, bad been named for the
kingship of Ireland. The Bishop of Orleans
aské very inuvocently, if a recent charge to
his clergy ; ‘Who can say that Ireland
. would not prefer to the sceptre which oppreseed her, the sword of one of her bravest soldfersf the detendant of one of bér antient
kings?’ The London Examiner, reféttiog
to this allusion, says :
“ Overtures have actwally bée made to
the Marsbal on the part of Ireland. Under
pretense of requesting his autograph, the
Mayoresé of Limerick bas soundéd his intentions ; and, what is more significant,
Marshal McMahon in his answer over
in silence the tlady’s matRed allision to his
blood and clafms. It is evident that he
“ bides his time,’’ and we can conceive bis
vexation at the Bishop's premature discloStranger things than this would bef have
happened in thé world history. Should the
present belitierent attitude of France and
England, result in an open rupture, we
that they will invest in the conétruction of . know of nothing more likely to bappen than
. a toll road, but ask themto give money by
. way of sabecription, to open a public road,
. and the purse strings will be drawn tight,
He argued in favor of the Bureka route, in
preference to that by the way of Bear Valley, and enid that be could not imagine a
toute presenting more advantages than the
former. He submitted a series of resolutions from which we extract the folldwing:—
Resolved, That a Committee be appointed
to take forthwith the necessary steps fot incofpottaing the company, the names of
menibers as they may be given in, {0 draft
the by-laws of such corporation ; and thet
the the capital slock of such corporation be
fixed at $25.000, and each share at $50.
Resolved. That the Senators and Assenihiymen representing Nevada County, be
. requested to procure the enactment of a law
providing tor the collection of twenty-five
thousand dollars from the citizens theréof
their sanction by vote being first had, for
the pnrpose of constructing, as soon as practicable, on the best gradea wagon road from
Eureka Sonth via Jackson's Ranch, to thé
summit, through the Henness Pass, or fo"
~ purchase of such road if built before such
me.
Resolved, That a Committee of three be
appointee to drafta bill such as is required
to be introduced in the Legislature. and fo
present the same to our Senators and Assemblymen, and request their cordial co—operation in its passage.
The following gentleman were then appointed as the committee to organize the
corporation: Richard Rafford and R, B.
Moyes, of Eureka*; Henry Meredith, of
Nevada ; Alexander Frazer, of Bridgeport
George D. Roberts, of Grass Valley ; J. W.
Dension, 6t, Bloomfield ; S M. Gilham, o
