Who are the Opponents of County Division? An attempt has been made to create the impression that the desire to divide the county of Los Angeles exists only amongst a small portion of its citizens, that in that part of the county, which it is proposed to cut off, public opinion is divided upon the subject and that North of the San Gabriel river there is a unanimity of feeling against the creation of a new county. Outside of the city of Los Angeles, three-fourths of the voting population live south of the San Gabriel river. Nine-tenths of this number or all, except a few citizens of Los Nietos precinct, warmly advocate county division, differing only with regard to the best method of accomplishing their object. Even those who do not experience the inconveniences resulting to citizens living in the more remote portions of the county, and who are in consequence content with the location of the present capital, are not opposed to the division provided they are allowed to remain in the old county. Their opposition heretofore has been based upon a difference of opinion in regard to the proper boundary line to be established, and when we satisfy them upon this point, they will accord to us the right to form a separate government. Who then are the real opponents of county division? In the first place, the county officials. The offices are owned by a certain clique, and, this proposition attacks directly their pockets. As soon as the bill, creating two counties out of the present territory of Los Angeles is passed through the Legislature, an effort will undoubtedly be made to release the fat man D. Bogart, a reporter for the Francisco Chronicle, was arrested at 10 o'clock on the morning of March 20th United States detectives, and spirited away to a man-of-war, without being able to privilege of communicating with friends or of placing himself under protection of the civil authorities. Can not for one instant conceive that action, partaking so strongly of militant despotism, was instigated by the Executive Department. We rather incline the belief that it is the unwarranted some naval officer who has thus ruverstepped his authority. Should he be the case, no punishment would be severe for the calprit. The supreme law is one of the fundamental principles of Republicanism, and, what is ignored in this high handed, descent manner by a government official, the public weal demands a speedy and convenient vengeance in vindication of the outrage majesty of the law. Affairs in Spain are becoming more complicated every day. The human, Austrian and Russian governments positively refuse to recognize the republic other European powers, by their slow action show that their sympathies not with the republican party and vally refuse recognition; whilst the lie in a letter addressed to Cardinal Antonio de la Mora declares Don Carlos to be king by right, and, as the spiritual head of Spanish nation, calls upon all good Cathics to take up arms in order to establish said Don Carlos upon the throne Spain. This pronouncement will be great influence in uniting the mass favor of the Carlist party, and disassembling them towards the Radicals. Although religious interference in politics is nothing totally of the past—a school-tale of the Middle Ages—still, if the Pope restores peace and harmony a country, at present di-tracted by worst of all evils—civil war, the end complished will to some extent justify means. The present month of March has been marked for the vigilants of the boundary line to be established, and when we satisfy them upon this point, they will accord to us the right to form a separate government. Who then are the real opponents of county division? In the first place, the county officials. The offices are owned by a certain clique, and, this proposition attacks directly their pocket. As soon as the bill, creating two counties out of the present territory of Los Angeles is passed through the Legislature, an effort will undoubtedly be made to release the fat salaries which have heretofore enabled their recipients to prevent the accomplishment of the will of the people. With salaries cut down to reasonable figures, there will no longer remain an incentive to sacrifice self for the public service there will no longer exist a fund with which to fee the many hangers-on, whose only business is to vote. In their endeavour to preserve the county intact, these men are ably seconded by the citizens of Los Angeles. For so many years have the residents in the country precincts been compelled to visit Los Angeles, that many of the townspeople believe it to be actually a felonious act to attempt to disturb the existing state of affairs, and will do all in their power to aid the office-holding ring to defeat the wishes of the honest hard-working farmers of the country. In a word, it is town against country. Owing to personal discussions in our midst the town has hitherto won the day. In the present campaign, which is now commencing, we have, on account of the equality of the two political parties, every prospect of success, provided always that we adopt a popular plan of action, and that we firmly unite to carry it forward to a successful conclusion. EDITORIAL NOTES. A good deal of "fuss and fury," has been expended by the Chronicle and Bulletin in animalverting upon the action taken by the California delegation in Congress, relative to the Salary bill. It appears however upon investigation that Messrs. Sargent, Coghlan and Houghton opposed the measure at first and were finally induced to record their votes in its favor in order to obtain the passage of the bill; making appropriations for the Pacific Coast. These gentlemen were not benefited by an increase of back pay, as the mileage to which they were entitled under the old law, and which was cut off by the new bill, amounted to $5000; or the additional increase of salary. We believe that men, occupying their positions, usually have a motive governing their public actions, and all should be charitable enough to consider the motive good, until positive proof is brought to the contrary. The indiscreet haste with which leading journals of the great influence in uniting the masses favor of the Carlist party, and in disabling them towards the Radicals. Although religious interference in politics is nothing totally of the past—a school-tale of the Middle Ages—still, if the Pope restores peace and harmony a country, at present distracted by worst of all evils—civil war, the encomplished will to some extent justify means. The present month of March has been mensa trag for the violators of the commandment. Foster, the carmurderer of New York. McEitham Boston, and Wright of Marysville, expanded their crimes upon the scene. Matt Tarpey, near Monterey in this was summarily punished by Judge L. whilst Fenwick at San Diego, escaped hangman's rope by committing suicide. All of these men committed cold-blood murders and richly deserved their consequently great anxiety was for the public generally, let a false mercy should interfere in theirAlthough opposed to capital punishment we believe that a law, when in should be faithfully executed and therefore with satisfaction that we this much-needed change in the position different State Executives. "Neither do men put new wine in battles"—is evidently believed by Hendricks of Indiana, the only genius left in the Democratic parties that it is impossible to convince masses that the Democracy are sinful: the complete abandonment of the political faith and desires to form party, under a new name, with new ciples. The incorruptible Pharisee opposes him. NEW ADVERTISMENTS BABBITT METAL OLD TYPE FOR SALE IN QUANTITIES purchasers. Apply at SOUTHERN CALIFORNIAN O SPECIAL NOTICE.

In our yesterday's dispatches it is announced that Scott has actually purchased this rail-road, naming also the sum given. All the signs of the times go to prove the truth of the rumor; work has not yet been commenced in Los Angeles county; Stanford, when requested by the Mayor of Los Angeles to state what he intends doing and when he intends to do it, maintains a persistent silence; the engineers of the Texas Pacific, have completed their preliminary surveys and no steps have, as yet been taken to locate; in a word, every thing in connection with the two roads, has come to a deadlock, evidently awaiting the termination of the negotiations between the two great railway chieftains.
