TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 17.
MIGRATORY.—The time for the reguler
spring inigrations has cume again and dozens
of citizens, some of them old ones, are avail-ing themeelves of the fine weather, good
roads,and.cheap fare on Mc’Cue’s opposition
Stage line, to visit the rich mining couatry
lying along the eastern base of the Sierra
“Hevada, Our own citizens are not alone affected with the migtatory fever, bet‘our sister town, Grass’ Valley, and of the larger
places in the State are troubled with -ittoo.
Every day sees the advent of a lot of San
‘Fratciscans among us, on their way across
“the mountains.
Every year our State has an exodws for
some place or places of reputed mineral
wealth. Gould Lake, Gold Bluff, Kern River
and Frazer River, have each had their day.
Lately-the-rusb_has _been-to_thesilver-region
which extends to-an indefinite length slong
the eastern base of the mountains: forming
the eastern boundary of California, Luckity
the whole of that stretch of territory abounds
in precious metals, and the seekers after
them are not in general subject to the usual
disappointments of those who are alive to every new excitement.
Washoe is arich region. The Huimboldt
country is fast acquiring » reputation. Esmeralda has a reputation which promises to
‘be lasting, and so have Coro and Slate Range.
But the especial excitement of this moment
is in favor of Reese River. Towards this
latter section most of our Nevada stragglers
are heading at this time. The rush is so great
that the regular ‘‘spring blues" are troub~
ling those who are compelled to remain. Ev. :
ry spring we have the eame state of affuirsA large number start off after fortunes leaving the remainder to bewail the dying condition of Nevada. And yet somehow, the town
and the people manage to keep up a respectable appearance and even flourish.
* These periodicical migrations and periods
_of despondency are the inevitable consequenes of new discoveries and excitements, and
' they must continue, perhaps for.ever. So
long us there ia such a vast extent of territory meh in hidden wealth unexplored pr
undeveloped, so long muet there be excite~
ments and emigrations.
come inour era when the last gold or silver mine willbe discovered, and until that
time there is no probability that every pereon will be satisfied that the spot where he is
can be the best inthe word. and be content
to settle down and call ita home for life.—
Yet there are strong inducements for enter»
prizing men to remain here and trust to the
tuture. Never was there in the history of
thie section a more encouraging period than
at present, 80 far as thé quartz interest is
concerned. The rich leads that are constantly being brought to light are really as.
tonishing. It is no sure thing, that those of
our citizens who are rushing to some«far
off place after silver mines will do better
than by going at work earnestly to develop
the wealth that lies all around us and. under
our feet.

WAS SARGENT A CANDIDATE ?—The San
Francisco Spirit of the Times takes the ground
that Sargent was nota candidate before the
late Union Legislative caucus for the United
* States Senate. The grounds for the position
are, that at a meeting of the Senatorial oxundidates held last full at the Russ House, called for the purpose ef obtaining money ‘from
these candidates to carry on the canvass,
Sargent said he was not a candidate and
withdrew from the meeting.
The fact that Sargent received 47 votes,
and within four of a nomination, would seem
to’show that Sargent: was a candidate and a
pretty stroag one at that. But whethet he
was a candidate at his dwn instigation, is
another question. We know that he shrank
from it at first, and even up to the time of
his leaving for Washington he felt a diffi
dence in having his name presented aa a candidate. Probably he felt that diffidence
when before the State Central Committee. —
But so faras contributing to the expenses
of the canvass is concetned, it ie known that
he did contribute, not only te the State Cen_tral Committee, but in other ways. “
We do not regard it as a disqualification if
a candidate is posseased of a little more modesty and alittle less assumption than his fellows, On the contrary a little mote hesitation on the part of politicians would be con_ sidered a cardinal virtue with the people.
The time will not] ”

ramento Bee cannot be fouad ot:
on this ot We give p specimen brick :
In the other day that the imme’
dato gr x toe éause of the hostility of 4He
Nevad ANSCRIPT to the Capitol approvenation arouse frourthe facet that ite candis
date for Senator did-not succeed, -we were
not exaggerating, ax those acquainted with
that journal well know.
Now, that we are opposed tothe Capitolappropriation for the reason stated every-"
body knows to be false, for -we opposed
Sacramento as the Capital ‘of the State years
before Mr. Sargent was before the Legislaalso, guilty of another falsehood in stating
that it had said ona —former occasion that .
our hostility arose from Sargent’s defeat.—
We have never seen such astatement in that
-)
paper before, and it comes to this office
pretty ° regularly. “At-anv. rate, if it has
twice made the same remark it is guilty of
reiterating a falsehood. If if is any consolation to the Bee we can assure its lying editor that we opposed the removal of the Capital from Benecia in 1854.
The Sacramento presses expect to carry
the Capitol tax bill by a lying coup de main.
They may succeed at it. They have got a
few men, seeking official positions, completely cowed, so that they would vote the last
dollar of a poor widow for the benefit of
Sacramento.
Once more, we tell the Sacrainento Bee
that its editor is wilfully lying against us
becaus6 we oppose an unjust tax, and we
know he knows he is lying.
Capiret Tax Bitt.—The Capitol Tax
Bill comes up-again for discussion in the Assembly to-day. One of the strong reasons
urged why more money should be expended
at Sacramentw is, that there has been a hundred and fifty thousand dollars spentalready
and it will be lost -if more is not added to it.

this argument. i

‘On Saturday rior “jnatant, Uncle

THE name Winoos,: which is used so often
in naming ships. and which is now upon one
of thé best gunboats in the Navy, is derived
from a legend of Northern New Hampshire
Winona was a daughter ofan Indian chief,
who.bad rescued from the handa of the sava~

whom she eloped, and whom she subsequently married. A few years of forest life so
weariel the husband that he concluded to
go back inte society, and communicated that
fact to his wife, who was so overceme by the
announcement, that she killed herself by
drinking teafrom—the-night shade berries.
Thornton, after performing the last sad rites
for his devoted. wife, removed to Boston,
where, in the busy world, he hoped to forget . this unhappy occurrence. Twenty years
rolled by, when one day, a traveller came to
