Iu llie meantime, the condition of the people of California is anomalous, anil will require on their part the exercise of great prudence and discretion, liy the conclu sion of the treaty of peace, the military government which was established over ilium, under the laws of war, as recogn ised by thepraclile of all civilized nations, has ceased to derive its authority from this source of power. Hut is there, for this reason, no government in California .' Are life, liberty and propety under the protec tion of no existing authorities ?

This government de facto will of course exercise no power inconsistent with the provisions of the ennstitution of the United Niatus, which is the supreme law of the land. 1'or this reason no import duties can be levied in California on articles the growth produce or manufacture of the Uni ted States, as no such duties can be im posed in any other past of our Union on the productions of Calilornia. Nor can new duties lie charged in Cal ifornia upon such foreign productions as have already liaid dutii.! any ports of entry, jlir theobvious t is that Califor nia is within the ter of tin; United States.
