humble opinion, this. ferocious style -of sus‘taining'the Union soutiment of ‘the state,
though it indicates much honesty and: earnsations of purpose, is of the most politic:
ong.. We are aware that some of our chivaltie eotemporaries, who were cradied under
storms of grape shot and tulled to slumber .
by the thunders of attillery, will esteem us
one of the old-granny stripe, who. sit smoking with a night-cap on im the chimney-corrner and talk of brotherly and sisterly love
vwhile the fire is reaching percuasion.enough
«to, blow the top of the head off !”—[ Vide Nevada. Journal of yesterday. ) But, mauger
the contempt of these desperate fire-eaters of
the press, whose courage, like champagne,
requires the. strongest. kind of corking to
“kéep it from exploding, and who, like the
‘Hibernian, are never at peace bat when fightdig, we think that a little less gasconading
‘anda little more quiet shrewdvess, on the
‘part of the Unionists of California, would
‘motinjure their cause very materially.
How stands the case? It is admitted, on
‘il hands, that vast majority of the people
hour state are devoted. to: the Union, and
h Senator Latham, are convinced that the
titer welfare of California depends on her
remaining loyal to the Union, and yet this
vast majority is divided into two, if not three,
. Jealous factions, under the control of officeseeking demagugues, to whom “Union for
“the, sake of the Union” is anything but a palatable proposition. Ina very few weeks, we
presume, there will be an election for Congtessmen. What certainty have we, if these
digunited Unionists go to the polls, each fac“tion under its own banner, with men of questionable character for its candidates, that gentine friends of the Union will be elected 1
Instead ot this frightful war talk—this flour”
ishing of swords and muskets—would it not
‘we better for the Union presses of the state
“to bet themselves to work to crush out the
old and effete partisan organizations, and, by
-agetting up a ticket of honest and capable lovvers of the Union, concentrate the Union sen‘timent of the state and direct it, en masse,
vagainst the disunionists? = =
‘We are neither a soldier nor, a politician
now—though, in our time, we have seen a
‘little of war and a little of politics—and our
suggestions may be regarded as rather ‘told
grannyish,” by the Hotspurs of the press, but
. “we imagine that sensible Unionists: will find
‘gome wisdom in them. In the United States.
‘Benate California is now represented by two.
panomen of undisputed talent, who are
tu the Union. By a little quiet tact
‘and an utter abnegation of the pretensions
and schemes of the old party hacks, by whom
‘the state has been so ‘much pestered and
@urst, California may be as. respectably and
: ntly represented in the lower house of
ingress as she is now in the upper.

‘SOUTHERN: PRIVATEERING. —A good deal
of apprehénsion prevails, both in San Franciseo and New York, in, relation fo the privateers now, as is asserted, roving the Gulf
of Mexico and Caribbean Sea, It is' feared.
they. will seriously interupt the steamer communication between the, Atlantic and Pacific coasts. This threatened danger has made
the marineinaurance offices exceedingly
timid, and has materially enhanced the. rate
of exchange between Culifornia and the east.
If, aw is supposed, it isnot safe to ship treasure on the. regular steamers, as usual, recourse inust be had'to British and French
vessels, The* Lien”and “Tri-Color,” will not
be meddled with by the privateers of the
Cotton Confederacy, and treasure will be
safe with them, It would not hurt us much
to have the'present extravagant shipments of
goods, from the east to California, interrupted for a season. It would give an impetus
to our. home manufactures. However, it is
net probable that Uncle Sam, crippled as:he
is, will permit these southern privateers to
do much mischief. There are too many U.
8. war ships on the Gulf to make it pleasant
for such free and easy crafts. The Federal
Government, no doubt, will regard all such
privateersmen as pirates, and hang them as
such.

THE Santa Chara SET CLERS.—A speck
of civil war appears in Santa Clara county
that threatens some trouble to the State. A
vast body of nidagtrious settlers in that county who have. been most shamefully .victimized by land speculators, have determined to
defend their possissons by warlike means. It
ig stated that. they.cav bring two. thousand
men into the field. The Sheriff of Santa
Clara, unable to dispossess them, has appealed for aid to Governor Downey, who is now
in San Francisco, engaged, it is said, in consultation on these troubles. ‘The San -Francisco papers announce. that a requisition on
the military has been Saiaad but the report
lacks confirmation. The Mirror of that city,
of Tuesday evening, has the following : “Anxious to-effect a-peaceable settlement: of the
squatter difficulties in Santa Clara coun ty
Governor Downey carte down from Sacramento last. evening for the pu _of confering with Sheriff Murphy and. Mr. Matthewa, Chabolla’s attorney, in relation to the
existing troubles. A conference was had today, but as Mr, Matthews was not: present,
‘notbing in the way of compromise could be
determined upon, and Sheriff Murphy, we
are informed, will make a formal requisition
‘upon the Executive for troops this evening
to eject the Chabolla Settlers, in accordanc
with a decision of the Supreme Conrt.”

From Wasuve.—According to the Virginia City Enterprise, the ramor was eurrent
that a number of men had been killed near
the Humboldt diggings. The report. proved
to be incorrect. A number of Indians, chiefly
Pah Utes, had congregated between the sink
of the Humboldt and the sink of Walker river.
They threaten to exterminate any whites,
who. attempt to go into their section of country to prospect. The Winnemuccas say they
desire peace, but can’t control the lawless
bands of* Indians» towards Walker river.—
Some-half-ounce pieces of gold which Indians
had pounded from the rock, were found -recently on Edwards Creek, a branch. of the
Hunboldt. -It had been procured fifteen
miles north of that. But it is not safe to
veuture up there after it, because of hostile
savages.
te” There are numerous oil stories going
the rounds, and among them none are better
than this, told by the Wheeling Intelligenver,:
A darkey was superintending the boring of
a well one night, the proprietor being anxious to complete the work apd therefore
laboring night-and day. The weather. was
cold a # fire was burning near the mouth
of the well. About midnight a vein of gas
was struck, and igniting by the fire, shot up
a brilliant flame in the air, illuminating the
