From tkt Lawrence Journal
been selected for this honorable station. Espe
cially that the latter has not been chosen, should
afford much gratification
It has been supposed that these men were the
tools of our Government, hired to write glowing
descriptions of the barren wastes between the
Sierra Nevada and the Pacific If so, it mist be
a matter of regret to every American that such a
course should be pursued by those who rule over
us. We are unwilling, to believe this, for why
should the Government act thus ? We are mord
willing, to believe.the more plausible opinion that,
prompted by selfish motives, they perverted the
truth for the accomplishment of their own ends;
the one for speculation—the other for the spoils of
office, or the fame that would attach to office, or
both.. ■ ■■'. :
Writing at a time when no such expectations
could have been conceived, and confining himself
to truth, Col. Fusuost cannot be accused of such
designs. His love of adventure has won for him
a name that will be immortal. Hand in band
with the early pioneers, Cumins and Lewis, and
tbe.giftej Hchboidt, his fame will be treasured
by posterity.
Let .the fame of Bbvant. be measured by the
maledictions of the wearied emigrant, deluded by
the false picture of a paradise which had been
spread .before his vision, Tue mirage is still be
fore him as he gasps lor. life, but for one drop of
water to cool his parched toogue he would give
worlds w ere they at his command. Ihe willow's
groau and the sigh of the orphan for one who
vainly sought a very Heaven upon earth, but fell
dead from thirst upon the vast deserts of sand; or
for one who, in dreadful agony, rent his flesh in
pieces, tore out his hair, his eyes, his tougue, or
covered himself up in the scorching sands—will
not these be monuments of fame for the deceiver
This is not speculation ;it is truth. More than
once has the writer of this article heard the mess
mates of those that have died from thirst alone,
recount such scenes as these j and having experi
enced the same sensations of dreadful pain on
those desert lands, and witnessed the sufferings of
others, can attest the truth of the statements.
And what shall I say of Kino. Hia report of
the condition of California, submitted to Govern
ment after his return from that country, is enough
to condemn him. It is .evident that he sought for
office when he wrote that report. But it is beyond
our comprehension how any man could expect fa
yor from those who too well knew the falsity of
,hls statements. How many have been duped by
that man to invest their alt m emigrating to that
barren country. The maledictions which fell
from the lips of thousands of starved emigrants,
who left comfortable homes to die beggars in that
plague-spot of earth-, I say the curses of these
men upon the heads of Bqtant and Governor
Mason, should have deterred him from his foul
purpose.
When we look around we cannot but contrast
the green hill sides, the waving forests, thn peace
ful valleys, rhe wide extended farms, the fruits and
flow ers, and all Hie pleasant sight of plenty—-with
the parched plains, the.brick-red.soil, the absence
of all spontaneous plants, save fern, which always
denotes barrenness, and the sandy deserts, where
even poor rnuley, that looks as though he bad
been fed upon hoop poles, seeks in vatu for a sprig
of gross or a pool of water, and exhausted, falls
down to die, leaving his carcass to 'the thousand
vultures that daily feed on food like this. Such is
Pennsylvania, and such is California. This pic
ture is not overdrawn-, all who have been there
can testify to its truth. J
