_\, “Turnpike Company will recommence work Office — 36 Com es “TUESDAY, APHEL 16th, 1861.BD DAIOY MAIL FROM NEVADA TO. WASHOE, ¥ ‘It is in comtemplation, by the-Post Office Department, we sinderstand, to establish a branch daily mail route,-from some point on the overland route, to Nevada, ‘through the Henness Pass. The route of -the overland mail, we'believe, is through Salt ‘Lake City aad Carson City to Placerville, The people of Virginia City, though at some distance from the ‘most direct line of the route, expect to have it pass through their locality. If not, they will, at least, have a daily postal ‘connection with some voint on the route, probably at Carson City. At this momentit is difficult to determine what point onthe overland route . though a» broad une. “the cortemplated mail route trom Nevada, . through ‘the Henness Pass,would intersect. ‘The present. probabihty. is that its eastern . tterminas will be Virginia City. “This arrangement, when completed, will ‘constitute the Nevada post office a distribu"tor for «large portion ofthe state, north and west, unlese-other mail routes, from the interior of the ‘state, intersecting the main overland toute, should be established through the’ Yuba Gap, Beckwourth’s, and other northern passes. But, whether such other mail routes ‘be established, or not, Nevada will be well satisfied to be placed in daily communication) with the main overland route, on such a fine It is gratifying to state, in view of this con-’ ‘templated imail route, that the Henness Pass on their road, at an early day, and ‘press it vigorously untilcompleted. The late severe winter has proved that, by a little attention and effort, the road can be maintained in good condition for traveling in the worst of seasons. A slight change in the lueation of . portions of the road, through the snow,,belt, ‘hy running it a8 much as possible on the north side of the ravine+ or ‘valley through which it passes; affording a longer exposure to the rays of the sun, will materially obviate } the difficulties occasioned by winter storms. The. -leading men of the company are well pleased with their prospects and confidently anticipate that, by next fall, the Henness Pass Turnpike will bid defiance to rivalry_on the part of any road, across the Sierra Névada, now existing or that may hereafter exist. : * t The entire population of California, exclusive of Chinese and Indians, according to the certified abstract of the census, lately received by the Governor and laid before the Legislature, is 380,015, Had the census been taken Dbeforé the discovery of the "Washoe mines, the population of the State ‘would have been nearer half a million than any other round number. On the abstract, thus furnished, the appropriate Committees in the Legislature are now at work apportiening the Senators and Assemblymen for the next five years. While they are about it they ought to report three Crngressional Districts. 7 Ont PeopLe.—Let politicians and demagogues agitate and pldt and plan as ‘they will it will take something deeper than their workings to embitter and thoroughly alienate this people, one from another. The people of aortherti Mississippi were recently, and prupably still are, suffering for want of food; whereupon, Major Hawkins was appointed to go to Iinois and solicit contributions of corn for their relief. This gentleman lately reported progress through.the public prints; and it appears he has received and is now engaged 1n fotwarding some 30,000 bushels of corn, a portion of which was a gratuitous donation, and the remainder was obtained ov credit at easy terms. MAassAcke oF INDIANS.—Five out of a party of eleven Cowichan Indiana were murdered lately on the beach at Port Townsend, Washington Territory, by some of the tribe of Clallams, assisted by some white wretches. The North West newspaper complains that the affair “disturbed the rest of several fami’ Mies dwelling only a few rods distant!” carrying hod of mortar to the top of a building, in San Francisco, on Thursday, in making a step, broke a rung in the ladder, and fell some thirty feet on the flat of his back in the’sand. He was takea home senseless, but ‘variously estimate gént jokes’ have cate" ie se of thie California offi : td ,by eastern newspapers. number 9f these 4 expectants has been , at from five hundred to two thousand. The last mentioned figure is 4 unquestionably too high and we discard it as a fiction. Nevertheless, there are more patriots from California begging for the’ luaves and fishes of office, at the hands of Mr, Lincoln, than will do honor to the great and generous state they. pretend to represent. The worst of the mattér is, if, the: newspapers tell the truth, that these treasury pap beggars try to advance their individual interests by slandering their fellows. Mr. Lincoln is reported to have. said that, if he should estimate the office seekers of California by the opinions they. express.of each other, he should consider them a precious pack of rascals, altogether unworthy the. confidence of the federal.government. This: is a broad joke ; though, for the honor of California, we beliévé it'to be nothing ‘more than a joke, The Alta has recently published what purports to be a list of California appointments, in which our fellow citizen, Mr. J. C. Birdseye, is set down as Surveyor of the Port of San Francisco, instead of Collector of that Port,. the office for which he applied. This list of appointments we consider rather apoe . ryphal, and shall continue to so consider it uaBirdseye, who is a realgentleman,upon whose shoulders no part of the obloquy visited upon hia fellow office seekers from California should rest, may have accepted the Surveyorship for the Collectorship, but we. do not beheve it, In a few days all doubts in this regard -will be resolged. ne eo SECTARIAN SCHOOLS.—Our spirited and intelligent cotemporary, the San Francisco Evening Jourgel,.thus expresses its opinion Mr. Montgomery's proposed amendment to the Common School Law, in drawing forth . . super seded by the declaration of. the State Constitution, ordaining that the estates of intestate persons, the per centage allowed by Congress on the sale of public lands, together with rents of public domain, and such other means as the Legislature may provide, shall be inviolably seprpprette © the support of common schools. We are opposed to all ecclesiastical interferences with secutar schools, and to the introduction of any sort of books and instructions beyond the reverent recognition of an overruling God. We send-vur ehildren to secular schools to learn human geiences, arid to Sunday schools and to chureh to be instructed in theology. If: the future interests of the State require any improvement of the present common school system, we think it would be wiser to ad@d instruction in mechanical and military science, instead of the vapory, intangible creations of conflicting theologists. School-masters, while they should not be infidels or atheists, need not be necessarily skilled in the profitless hnir-splitting of creeds; children want learn what they know about letters and seience, not their peculiar .views in relation to spiritual things. ———— i ANOTHER INDIAN CAMPAIGN.—There is a fine prospect for another Indian war, the State to foot the bill, in Humboldt county. We recently noticed the saeceptance by Col. Johnson of a company of State volunteers, ordered enlisted by the Governor for service in that region. The Humboldt paper cengratulates its readers on the arrangement, and adds : “‘ An opportunity is now’ offered to those who have suffered from Indian depredations, and who know their habits and hiding placés, to help to give,them a thorough drubbing during the next three months, at the expense of the Federa! Government ; and although the pay is stated to be the same as that of United States infantry soldiers, there isnot much doubt the: State, upon proper showing, will make up the difference bethis character.” a THE CHANGE OY VeENUE.—Saturday’s Sacramento Union states that the Supreme Court has rendered'a decision in the Horace Smith case. The law granting a change of venue 1s pronounced constitutional, though the Court do not consider the proceedings by mandamus the proper remedy, and therefore deny the order upon the Court below. The opinion is lengthy, and is understood . to have been written by Judge Baldwin.
