eo memeState AID TO THE RalLRoaD.—The
Bill granting ten thousand dollars per mile
from the State treasury, to the Central Pas
cific Railroad, has finally passed #tid goue to
the Governor. . It appropriates five hundred
thousand dollars-to be applied to the first fit
ty miles of road commencing at Sacramento ;
two huridred thousand to be paid on the completion of the first twénty miles, and the remainder when the next thirty miles are fine
ished. Iu consideration of this sum the company constructing the road is to transport
free of charge for thé State over the road all
public messengers, State convicts, materials
tor the construction of Capitol buildings, articles fur the State Fuir, and muterials of
war’ when necessity requires, There are
some ideas suggested by the passage of this .
bill, which may not be inappropriate to ex»
press. It will be remembered that the Legis«
lature has passed an act for the relocation of
the. Central Pacific Railroad. We have not
seen the act, but suppose it authorizes the
. Central Pacific Railroad company to change
their route:to suit themselves: © Now, the
late bill gives a subsidy of ten thousand dol~———tare a inite to that part of the road extend
ing from Sacraments in the direction of Lin«
coln. “Ifthe company shuuld decide to
change the. route of the road and riin in the
direction of Oroville atter the. first twenty
miles are completed, they will make a nice
thing of-it; for with the national aid of $16,.
000, per mile and every alternate section of
land in a strip ten miles wide, and $16,000
from the State Goverument, they ought to be
able to fit the road to receive its rolling stock
without taking a dollar from their own pockets: Ifthe company decide to make as muchus possible out of the level ground before ats
tempting to scale the motintains, and run
their road up the valley, the General and
State Governments will be put in the posix
tion of attempting to crush or compete with
the private enterprize which has already invested its hundreds of thousands in building
u road in the same direction,
Not long-since and before the act granting
State aid'to the construction of the Pacific
Railrood passed, we suggested the propriety
of making the whole sum granted by the act
applicable to that part of the road ascending
the Sierra Nevada, as a matter of precaution;
and because the Company ought. to be able
~ to construct of themselves and with the aid of
the National Government that-amall part. ofthe:
route. We have seen. nothing. to justify us
in the belief that our suggestion was not sen.
-sible and proper. As the Act now reads the
whole amount of half a million ‘dollars may
‘be'gobbled up, though we do not: think it
will be, to construct fifly miles of road in the
valley to compete with or crush individual
enterprize. If the money had been paid by
the terms of the Act to help construct the
* read over the hardest part of the route exclusively, the people who pay attention to
such matters would have been better aatisa
fied. It ina loose way of doing business,
this throwing money to any company without
sufficient guards.

ADJOURNED.—Yesterday was the day
agreed upon for the adjournment of the
Legislature. We suppose the dispersion
teok place about the hour of noon, to the
great satisfaction of everybody, The Legs
islature of 1863 has been a good and. true
one all things considered. Its faults have
been those insepatable from the system of
rotation in office, So long as we return
but few old members to the Legislature, but
select the majority of both houses from, new
mon, just so feng will legislation drag on
slowly and inefficiently at the State Capi.
tal. The practice uf electing so many new
men each yeat renders the Legislature a
school where men learn the ulphabet of legis»
lation and then ate turned out to give place
-to other abecedarians. Long seasions and
crude laws result, because by the time a
man has learned the-repes and begins to be
useful he is dismissed from service. We
shall ‘never see short sessions, or model laws,
until those who make them are qualified-eith=
er by education cr experience for the work
to which they are called. The ‘session of
1863 has been a long one—112 days. No
one doubts that the work could have been
done in fifty days had all the legislators
been qualified ‘for their duty. Still, when
everything is taken into consideration the
fourteenth Legislature of the State will
“right ourselves by doing—eghit.

U.S: ann’ Foreton Powers.—When
the Crimean war was raging thes sympathies
of Ameritans were mostly for Russia and
against the Western “Powers. It was a
strange spectacté, democracy, or tather ochlocracy, giving foral support to despotism,
anextreme sympathizing with its opposite~
The Western Powers were alienated by the
position we then took. The republican sentiment prevailing in England and Franev to
a large extent, and liberalism characterizing
the politics of the peeple, they could not re~
concile the sympathies-of Americans—for aus
tocratic Russia on any known principle
We gained the good will of “Russia,
but did much to repel the good will of theinglish and French. If we mistake not, our
nation is experiencing the ill effects of that
unwise affiliation with the aggressive spirit
of Russia.” If we have lost in this way the
syinpathies of the Western Powers, what
have we gained? The kind regards of Russia; but see the embarrassing position in
which which we are placed towards unhappy and struggling Poland. If we declare
curselves friends of the Poles, we do not
gain thereby the full sympathies of the
Western nations of Europe, we alienate
Russia, and have no friendly nation on the
continent-to.act asa check upon the designs
of other governments on our own. It will
be seen that a mistake in the past in not be»
stowing our sympathies where they properly
belonged, with the people of liberalized views
of government, has led us inte an awkward
dilemma. ‘The true policy is, Lowever, to
We need
not follow a bad precedent. If Poland
should have our nioral support by virtue of
the righte of her people, in-Heaven'’s name
let her have it, thignyh every sovereign of
Europe threatens us with displeasure. The
moral grandeur of standing by and defending Liberty and Progress stubbed by Power,
is inspiriag. Away with a selfish policy? <Ie

ReESIGNED.—Judge Field has sent in his
resignation as Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the State. In looking over the eminent lawyers of the State we cannot see the
the man who can exactly fill the vacant place.
Judge Field has redeemed the highest court
of the State. It rose to respectability since
he toek his seat. It is on a splendid footing
new, It isto be hoped that new judges will
be found willing to follow in the footsteps of
Judge Field. for then the Supreme Court
will be held in that repute which the highest.
tribunal should waintain.
Judge Field, as is well known, goes to a
higher court—to take his seat as one of the

HORRIBLE AFF AIt.—The Virginia City
Enterprise says a gentleman from Gould Hill
relates the fullowing statement in regard to a
horrible affair said to have taken place in
that vicinity. Ou Sunday morning, a rumor
prevailed in town that « noted desperado had
taken refuge in a tunnel about a mile from
the latter place. A party of citizens repairs
ed to the spot, but each felt a delicacy in entering the cave in the dark where an armed
man had seereted himself: The mouth of the
tuanel was consequently stopped up, and
next day aatrong posse went up, rolled away
the stones from the sepulcbre, entered, and
found five dead Indiaus—three men one squaw
and one child—who had gone in there to
up.
