Tbe present hostile as- j owes tuxes of any kin to come forward at hiwio trouble often more than bis work is worth. A tax ought never to be demanded except at tin point, io to speak, uf a warrant or execution for Ha collection. It is the duty of a man who Beet of the India tribes rendering a military force necessary, the ranks will have to be refilled, either by volunteers or drafted ipon. We cannot expect in the preediit condition of affairs that gov ernment can furnish us with troops to sjuard our borders. When the terms of these troops expire there will probably bo a call for volunteers, and under the law, if the rnnks are not filled In fifty days a draft will be ordered. We think it would be well for our Legislature to take this matter un der consideration, and if possible, make some pro vision iu reference to the matter. 1 - The following extract from tbe Sncrumorito .'mem will give some Idea of the manner In which California providos for her volunteers. In addition to these bounties she pays all her volunteers five dollars per month in coin iu addition to tbelr pay from tb general government. We anggeat that oma Inducement shduld be offered by legislative action for tbe re-enlistment of those whose terms are about expiring. Thia would show an appre ciation of their services on the part of the State, and at tbe same lime tend to keep experienced vet. erana in thefield.

Now all the cxpenso of warning nnd re warning men to work ou the road comes out of the tnx-pnycr and auuoinplisliv no good to nuy out. All road taxes, lilto other tuxes ought to be primarily puyublo in money ; and if uny one wanted Io work on the road, let him hire to the lupervisor to work and be pnid like any ottier man. The lupervisor should give public notice when he Is going to wnrk a given public road, nnd any one who wanted a job ought to go to him and get it if ha cue UI. The tax should be payable by a certain day, say the 1st of Murch. ami if then unpaid in money the supervisor nu'bt tn have authority to collect nt onoe by lev V and sale of property. l!y this menus he would have bis funds iu band, and be ready to commence ik curly iu the summer, and like ly noconipli.-h something.

It will be re membered that about tlie time news hum Chi cngu camo the telegraph reported the authori ties were talking of lending coiuiuissioners to liiuhniond tn find on what terms pence could be obtained. Tbe report waa never confirmed, ami wo never gave it any attention, but it gave some of Jeff's disciples n big senre. They w ere heurd to say that on the nomination of "Little Mao" Lincoln suw hi chances were hopeless unless he could suco 'ed in itouliug the thunder of the "democracy'" by mnliiug pence with Jeff before tbe 'lection. They who had cried 'peace' so long became suddenly in favor uf wnr ; nnd some of their papers iu California are denoun cing the abolition peace scheme ua "a coward ly concession." This is no more than we ex pected. That parly ia opposed tn a war for the Union, opposed to any peace that is not propo sed by cither themselves nr their friends the rebels opposed to a restoration of tho Union ondor any circumstances by the present admin istration. When Lincoln wnges wnr for the Union it is nil outrageous, bloody, fratricidal abolition wnr. If lie propose peace it ia " a cowardly concession" or an electioneering scheme. The telegraph should be careful how it lends us such reports, for they greatly dis turb the Dixie-loving chiv. of this lucidity. il'UitlllK '.NO TIIK lAl'LT-I'lNidJU . .- . . .lOlli.N'Ab AU.U..

Is there not in that sentence nil evident design to mislead the readers nf that paper ? It is asked ngain "why Mr. M'Hride was absent." Here, again, if the fault-finder had been seeking truth as earnestly as ho was seeking falsehood, be would have learned that our Representative was necessarily absent from his seat that day as otic of tbe Committee nf Visitor to West Point Academy, and that he bad bis name recorded in favor nf the bill at the first opportunity after his return, 'which we believe was the duy succeeding tliu passage of the bill and net "sevo, id days." as is insin iiatt'd by tbe editor of the Orego-'ian. Must we publish the entire proceedings of the hint ses sion of Congress, nnd die President's appoint- nicnta, limply to please u grumbling son headed sheet that never sees, bears, nr appre ciates anything outside nf its own little back woods corner of the world? The remainder of the Orennian's art'ele is loo pnlpnhly ridiculous tn require nny notice. We never referred to this question because wc desired nny quarrel with the Portland paper we nre far from desiring any such tiling but because we were not willing dint the character of n faithful public servant should he jissnilcil hy n iiiiHsatemeiit of facts. We believe the Portland paper has placed Mr. M lltiile before ils reader in u false light, and unless it sets the matter light bv publishing thu facts as shown upon the record, we cannot avoid lite conviction that its statements in reference to this mutter are tcittful and malicious perter lions of truth.

It appears die rebel General Pago endeavored to obtain more tavorable terms, but wa obliged tn surrender Fort M'r gun unconditionally Farrigut stulei that he has reasons to believe that most of the gun' were spiked and carriage injured after the white Hag was raised, lie also discovered that Page nnd several other ofliuers bad no swords to deliver ; lome were broken that were surren dered.

From Hie mo ment tlie old ling was hoisted be kept every, thing scrupulously intact, and in that condition delivered up: while Page's officer,', with child ish spile, destroyed guns, which they said I hey would defend to the last, hut which they never ileleinled tft all. They threw away or broke the weapons which they had not the manliness to use against the enemy. Fort Morgnu never lired a gun after the commencement of die boiiibnrdmeiit and the advance pickets of our army wero actually in it glacis. As before staled the surrender took place at 2 o'clock, p.
