Cahftnilft Aflat is.
Wo find the following commentary on tho
state of affaire in Cullfomla in the Ban Fran
cisco Bun, of tbo 2Ut July :
From tbo tint week ntW tho organization or
the Viailimoe Committee, tho Monde of that
delectable order have maintained that it was
but a temporary institution, having no political
alms to accomplish, uud have cuntetiued that
iu a “few days uioro they would l>o ready to
disband. But days lengthened into weeks, and
weeks (sad, gloomy, disheartening weeks,)
. rolled into months, aud yet they chug withjm-
utterable fondness to tbo power they have
usurped, and make no sign or relinquishing
their tenacious grasp. Wuou ono reason Ibils
for longer couUuuuuce of this aiiomalous aud
diagraeoful state of adiiirs, another is speedily
sought and as speedily found, wherewith to
hoodwink tho liouest, uud pander tho vicious
of their supporters. It has been curtly aud tru
ly Baid, that “there is mauy a man without
money, but none without uu excuse. 1 ' Bo with
the inquisitorial baud of traitors in Sacrumeu-
"to street.
As fast as one exouso expires unother Is pre
sented “for the consideration of tho dear peo
ple” to whom they will yet bavo to account for
their misdeeds; aud when driven to tho lust
extremity they resort to the shallowest aud
the lamest pretexts. First, it was “Casey must
be hung;” then their associates must bo drivcu
from office (uufortuuutcly for the tricksters
this scheino did not succeed;) theu, Bullivau,
Kearney, uud shoulder-strikers generally must
bo banished; this accomplished, for waut of a
better pretext they put their ban on others
who must be sent from our Bhorcs; then came
ihe proclamation of tho Governor, uud this was
made a new reason why they could not disband,
fortbelrprlde.it was paid, would not permit
them to givo up uuder a threat.
After a lengthened delay, they decide that
the arms of the Btato must bo pirated away
and seized. This gave theui but a short respite,
and some bold stroke must be mude or they
would die of very inertia, aud their armed co
horts sicken of ennui. So tho attack-wanton,
disgraceful and outrageous—ou a Supremo
Judge, while iu tho discharge of his sworn du
ty, was plauned and executed. This aroused
the fever, broke the ennui and gave some spirit
and hope to French fusilers, hireling soldiery.
Theu, to calm tho tempest, the public were
told quietly yet significantly, tbat after tho
sailiug of tbo “ next steamer” ou the Cth of
July, they would give up their powers aud be
come deceut, orderly and “ respectable” citi
zens onco more. But the sixth of July has
passed, (so has the 4th and the glorious Liberty
it commemorated) and now wc ure told by,those
in authority, the 21st is the day lixed. Out
upon such shallow, false aud truckling excuses
and pretexts. We nrc disgusted at bearing
such llimsy prevarications uud open falsehoods,
from men whom shame should have driven in
to merited obscurity and contempt, yet who
usurp the royal prerogative, aye, the despot’s
tgrauny in the namo of justico aud purity, aud
We are satisfied they will not lay dowu their
power or cease their usurpations until they are
compelled to "do so by an indignant people,
who have smiled upon or permitted already too
long their misdeeds and their wrongs.
For the purpose of prolonging their ill-gotten
power, and lor the accomplishment of their
sinister and ulterior designs, they lmvo, from
the first, shifted from one excuse to another,
and so it will be to the end. When cue pre
text fails, they will make another, by their owu
premeditated and cowardly acts. When the
necessity is gone, (as it was long siuce,) they
will calf up another, aud, iu the end, will pro
bably revolutionize tho government and per
haps secede frtfm the Union. An excuse they
will find or make—even though it should bo
disunion or civil war—should it be uccessary to
proclaim it in order to effect their sclUsh pur-
The same paper publishes a letter from Judge
Terry to Col. Ztbriskie, with the following
comments:.
It will be seen that Col. Znbrkkfo and Gen.
Allen, os we yesterday intimated, were iu fact
delegated with power from tho Governor to
counsel and compromise with tho mol|ocrat<
We regret, while wo unqualifiedly condemn
such vacillating, childish, reprehensible con
duct on the part of our Chief Executive. We
had hoped better thiugs of Gov. Johnson. To
compromise, consult or recognize, in any
manner, tho mob institution of Bacramento
street, was, in all conscience, bad cuough;
but to make overtures to them, and delegate
his power to Col. Zabriskio and Gen. Allen—
deefared mobocrats and sympathisers, as well
as practiole if not pcrsnmd enemies of Gov.
Johnson—was tho height of folly and weak
ness. It was more thuu a blunder.
The card of Judge/ferry, however, sets him
right, and places the Committee in a very un
enviable positiou. As honest men they caunot
reject the test—ns Vigilante they dure not ac
cept False or week friends have sought to
place him in a wrong light, and ho lias tri
umphed, as justice and right always triumphs
over duplicity and folly. For the liouor of the
Governor of a sovereign State, which is yet not
entirely degraded by mob violence, we still
trust that there may be some mistake as to tlio
authorization by Governor Johnson of such
overtures to the Inquisition, and that Mcssis.
Allen and Zabriskio were not empowered to
S rostrate in the dust, at the feet of the modern
[oloch, what little was left of our honor and
dignity.
TO TUB PEOPLE OP CALIP0UN1A.
We are authorized to state, that ou the third
day of July inataut, Judge Terry received a
communication from Colonel Zabriskio and
General Allen, in which they informed him that
Governor Johnson had delegated to them full
powers to settle the difficulty existing between
the State Government and the Vigilance Com
mittee in which communication thoso gentle
men quoted a passage from tho address ot Mrs.
Terry, published a few days ago relative to tho
resignation of Judgo Terry, provided it was
made apparent that such was tho wish of the
Special DUpatoh to the Boston Post.
Immense Meeting at WatervIlU, Me t

• CHEAT ENTHUSIASM.

*SS99
Watbuvili.b, Me., Aug. 18.
This town Is holding high carnival to-day. It
is commencement to-day ,nml in addition totlds,
whig and democratic conventions have been
summoned to meet here. These several calls
imvo .Ailed this beautiful placo with
multi ufles of people, comu to enjoy the literary
uxcrc lies at tho collego or to tuko part in tho
pollMpil gatneilngs designed to prevent tho
restoration of the Morrill dynasty iu tho state,
aud to secure tho triumph of consorvutivo prin
ciples in tho presidential contest. Tho demo
cratic mass meeting was called to order on tho
Common at 11J o’clock, by Col, Johusun Wil
liams, of Watcrville, umf organized by tho
chutce of W. B. 8. Monro as chuirnmu, auil two
secretaries. Speeches were made by Hon.
James W. Bradbury, of Augusta, and liou.
Nathan Clifford, of Forttaud, after which the
convention adjourned.
In tho utleruuon tho stand was yielded to the
national whigs, whose convention was called to
order by Jonathan Perlngton, Esq., or Fairfield,
aud organized by tho selection of Col. E.
Hutchinson, of Athens, us president, six vice
presidents, and two secretaries. Gcu. George
Evans, well known as u prominent whig in tills
stute, aud formerly U. S. Beuatur, addressed
tlie audience in a speech of about two hours
length. Ho read copious extracts from tho
writings of Washington and Jelli-raon to show
tho absurdity of the pleas set up by tho repub
licans tor a return of tho policy of the fathers,
inasmuch us the republican party are sucli us
were most sternly denounced and repudiated by
the patriots ol early history. In this emergen
cy Mr. Evans said: “If we have no ling of our
own Hying ; if wo have no trumpet to call us
as whigs; ir, amid the smoke and dust of the
strife and coullict of other parties, 1 can see
tho llug of our Union Hying any where; if,
amid tho noise uud din of qrnw, I can hear
the trumpet of tho Uuion sounding the rally,
I shall not stop to iuqitiro who leads tho forces
that protect it.” Tills announcement of the
position taken by Mr. EvAns was received with
great cheering.
An eloquent and,characteristic letter was
then read from lion. Buliis Choate iu reply to
au invitation to be present, from the whigstute
committee, in which ho declares his views of the
duties of the whigs, iu tho presnt crisis of po
litical afl'uirs of tho country. Tuo first duty of
whigs, he says, because they are whigs, is to
uuite with some organization to defeat uud
dissolve tho new geographical party calling
itself republican. Believing tho uobiu ship of
state to lie within a half cable’s length of a lee
shore of rock, in a gale of wiud, our first
business is to put her about, aud crowd her oil'
into the deep open sea. Wlu\t Washington,
Madison, Clay and Webster decided as a re
mote and improbable* contingency is upon us.
Yet sumo men would have us go on siugiug
liko tlio traveller iu the satire, with ids pockets
empty, at a present peril, tlio mere apprehen
sion of which, usa distinct uud bare possibility
could sadden the heart of the Father of his
Couutry, aud dictate the grave ami grand warn
ing of tlio farewell address. Considering what
men are, Mr. Choate says that he does not say
that tho triumph of such a party as the repub
lican ought to bo expected naturally uiul pro
bably to disunite the states ; but witli his un
doubted convictions it would bo folly and im
morality to risk it.
_ As between the candidates before the coun
try, he says lie shall not venture to counsel the.
whigs of Muiuc, hut he deems it due to fruuk
ness and honor to say that, while ho entertains
a high appreciation of Air. Fillmore, ho docs
not sympathise with the objects of the party
that nominated him. Practically, tlio contest
is between Mr. Buchanan and Col.Fremont. In
these circumstances lie SHOULD GIVE HIS
VOTE FOB MB. BUCHANAN ! His capac
ity is universally acknowledged; his life is with
out a stain; aud lie represents more completely
than any other that sentiment of nationality—.
tolerant, warm aud comprehensive, without
which America is no longer America.
Great applause followed the reading of this
letter, aud three cheers were given for Mr.
Choate.
lion. E. W. Farley, before reading tho letter,
declared that ho fully concurred in the conclu
sion to which Mr. Choate had urrived.
lion. Phineas Barnes, of Portinud, then ad
dressed the audience, mainly in relation to state
afliiirs. In conclusion ho brielly alluded to na
tional matters, remarking that he could not en
dorse the conclusion of Mr. Choate. He should
wait to see how tho democratic party would
act iu this trial hour* He wanted to scon party
taking a conservative, middle position, uud
when ho found that, lie would stand with them
for the couutry and the whole country.
Jmto« Bronson, of B.itli, also spoke, criticis
ing with severity tlio republican party aud its
candidates. He was hi favor of Fillmore. Bath
er than foster black republicanism, however,
with all its baneful influences, be would vote
for Buchutum ns a lost resort.
Tho meeting adjourned with three cheers for
the Constitution and the Union. The meetings
were well attended mid were characterized by
great good feeling and harmony. The speak
ers were frequently applauded. The Gardiner
Brass Baud furnished some excellent music.

Whitehead, K. T., Aug. 4.—On Wednes
day last Gen. Richardson sent two men from
this place to reconnoitre Lane's regiment, be
fore reported as making their way into the
Territory. They returned this evening, and
majority of the people of the wholo State, ami
they requested the judgo in said communica
tion, to point out some moilc by which the will
of the people in regard to his resignation could
be ascertained. Tlio Judgo, being isolated
from-all bis friends, and not allowed to see or
communicate with them, refused to make any
written reply to thoso gentlemen, being appre
hensive tbat it might be suppressed; but tlio
following answer to their communication was
sent to a friend, and although it is addressed
to Col. Zabriskio and otlibrs, Judgo Terry de
sires the whole State to know aud understand
his views on that question, aud now submits
his reply to tho imperial judgment of his fellow-
citizens :
To Colonel Zabriskie and OUwrs:
I have authorized Mr. Crittenden to say to
you, in answerto your communication of the
lid instant, that the most speedy and satisfac
tory means of ascertaining the wishes of the
K of this State as to my ccutinuanco on
uch which suggests itself to my mind,
is tho following:
tat the olfiences charged against me be sub-
mttted to a public trial lieforc an impartial jury
ts speedily as may be. • ir I nin found guilty of
any offenco whatever I will at once resign.
I take it for granted that the people of Cali
fornia desire to see no man occupying tho po
sition of Judge, who is guilty of any crime,
and I will accept the verdict of uu impartial
jury as tho sense of the people, nnd net prompt
ly upon that vordtet. Respectfully, Ac.,

Editors Times fy Scntinal—l uni pleased to
say tbat the Senate to-day passed lira Bill to
pay the claims of citizens of Georgian aud
Alabama, arising out of the depredations of
the hoatilo Creek Indians in 1830. Tho amount
appropriated is ubout $330,000. It is not probable
that the Bill can pass the House of Representa
tives at the present session, hut it will go over
to the next session, when, 1 .1 hope it will be favor

Hon. Bupub Choate for Buchanan and
the Union.—A convention of tlio Whigs of
Maine was held yesterday at Watcrville, ut
which a letter was read from the Hon. Rufus
Choate, who deelurcs himself in favor of the
election of Buchanan aud'Breckinridge, and
advises all Union loving men to follow Ids ex
ample. Mr. Choate says that there are but
two parties in tlio canvass—the Democracy
and the Union, and tlio Black Republican anu
Disunion. Hop. E. W. Farley, and other dis-
' thigttisbed Whigs of Maine, present at tho con-
vention, fully endorsed the opinions expressed

to be ultra Free Boilers: were kindly treated
and remained all night.
During tlio night they learned Hint Gen.
Lane had returned to Chicago to raise more
men aud meuns to seud after the party.
That ho was going from thence to Pittsburgh
and Cincinnati to ralso 5000 men, charter two
boats and bring them through to Kansas with
out touching at Missouri towns.
That lie would have sufficient artillery to
batter down any town from which nn attempt

was waiting for forces then at Nebraska City
before moving down to Topeka.
Tho spies were also informed tlmt tho party
expected these forces on Wednesday, when
they would bike up their line of march. That
when Gen. Lane touched the shores of Kansas
they would move down from Topeka to meet
him.
That when they did join their forces with
Gen. Lillie’s “they would deny the Border
BiilliariH, and all the United States to Imot.”
Richardson’s spies then went up to Nebraska
City where they saw 200 of the sainb frec-soil

of the statement of tho “vanguard.” They are
ail throughly armed with Shirp's rifles, pistols,

whelming the feeble opposition which stands
in their way. The meeting was tlie best of the

every man iu our community to do his part of
patriotic duty.
Tho association was called to order by tlie
first Vice-President, Holcombe, and in pursu
ance of announcement, Mr. L. Y. Levy was in

formerly a member of tho American Party, felt
it necessary to give his reasons for leaving
them hi tho existing crisis of afi'airs.
He reviewed the respective claims of Mr.
Buchuimu and Mr. Fillmore, recommending ev
ery man at tiic South to enlist under the hau
lier of the former. Ho spoke severely of Mr-
Fillmore’s Culm proclamation, and his subse
quent action iu reference to the imfortuuate

In fact, the Bluck Republicans are dying olT.

Wo givo tlio closing remarks of tho speech
of Mr. Lumpkiu,ou tho slavery agitatlou which
arocloqueutund significant us totbu chances of
Mr. Fillmore.
Mr. Chairman, I Imvo said nearly all that I
intended to ray when 1 took tho Hour. In tlio
Slates of Wisconsin, lowaj Michigan, Illinois,
Vermont. Maine, and New Hampshire, there is
not ut this time, uud from present indications
there will nut be, any electoral ticket for Fill
more uud Donelsou. In tlie remaining non-
slaveiioldiug States not even a feint hope of
receiving an electoral vote for u ticket put
iortli iora sluuu, and tossed by as a plaything.
In tlie Statu of New Jersey the prospect is nut
mure llattering—and even in Delaware the con
sul vuiivc Democracy will dispute every incite!
that gallant State. Aui I askid, if de-
feut is certain, and treachery so clear,
whv do nut the Fillmore forucs disband and
rally ut onco under tho banners of Buchanan
or Fremont ? Tho answer is ut lmtid. Tho Fill
more wing ol Bluck Republicanism must play
ont tile game ho adroitly comnicuccd. If they
can succeed in keeping up au organization in
tho South they may possibly, by currying u
few oid Whig Stutes iu that section, throw tlie
election into the House of Representatives:
and thuu tho same combinations tliut placed
N. P. Banks in tlio Speaker’s chair, would con
duct John C. Fremont to tho presidential man.
aion. Tills is, in my houoat judgment, tlie se
cret scheme tlmt'undcrlies uil their movements.
For tills Imvo they toiled by night aud by day.
To this end have been directed tho congres
sional plots—tlio extraordinary proceedings—
tlie disicguid of constitutional law—the ex
pulsion of members—the violation of purlin-
meutary decorum, which have ehuracterizcd
tho session of Cc ngress now drawing to a close.
Bat, sir, before resuming my*seat, justice de
mands an acknowledgment of tiie eminent aud
patriotic servfces of the National Democracy
of the North, who now, us-always, stand by
tho South iu the inaintuuaiico of its rights, uud
iudelbucoof the Constitution. Although they
stiiiggiu witli us iu a common cause—tlio pre
servation of tlie Union, aud the perpetuity of
our free institutions—aithon^h wo buttle against
U i-oiiihioii toe, and rally liko brothers under
a common Hag 4 wo caunot forget that tlio con
test iu the present light is peculiarly ours, utid
that the subjugation nud enthralment of the
South are tlie avowed purpose for which all
these combinations are formed. Their gener
ous devotion to the cause of their country,
when all uroiiud them have proved faithless
and base, inspires in tlio Southern heart uu
abiding confidence that tlmt Providence, which
lias protected us so far, will watch over us
sti?l, and conduct us iu safety through tlio per
ils of this coutesl.

Wasiiinjitnn Correspondence
Washington, August 15.
In the Senate to-day, Mr. Trumbull present
ed the proceedings of n mass meeting of the
citizens of Lexington, MeLcau county, Illi
nois, complaining that certain of them had
been prevented from entering Kansas by arm
ed Ixmds of marauders, and have bceu thus
impeded in the exercise of their rights. They
were referred to tlio Committee on Territories.
Interesting a very strong coutrolilng
motive witli all men, and northern traders and
settlers who ure prevented from advancing
their legitimate interests in the new territories,
from whatever motive, very naturally feel dis
posed to enrol 1 themselves in tlie ranks of any
party that offers a plausible chance of finally
defeating and disappointing those whom they
regard as having interfered witli such interests.
Hence, in a great measure, the spread of the
Freesoil party iu the north west. A mercan
tile gentleman of Baltimore, a warm supporter
of Mr. Buchanan, who lately travelled exten
sively throughout tlie North aud north west,
told me in a late conversation tlmt the elmjigc
there ill favor, not ol Abolitionism, but of
Fremont, as a sort of promised Saviour was
owing not so much to political feeling as to a
determined principle of incicunlile interests.
Ou motion of Mr. limiter, of tne Committee
ou Fiance, the Senate disagreed to the iiousu
amendments to tho Legislative, Executive uud
judicial appropriation bill, aud apointeda com
mittee of conlereiice thereon. The same Sena
tor reported luck with aiiieiuiuieuts the Army
appropriation bill, amended by the House.
The Senate then took up the bill making ap
propriations for the civil expenses of the Govern
ment.
Tlie amendments of the House to tlie legisla
tive, executive and judical appropriation bUl,
disagreed to by the Senate, are the provisos of
Mr. i’cuningtou, which were again tucked to
tlie bill yesterday by tbc House. In tiie debate
on these amendments yesterday in the House,
Mr. Campbell,of Ohio, made a distinction be
tween the amendment by which judical officers
in Kansas aud alllaelingjUnder them, are denied
compensation, ami the amendment preventing
the execution of the alleged invalid laws.
Ho was iu iavor of preventing the execution
of such laws, but uguinst unjustly depriving ol
compensation innocent persons whore duty it
is made to carry those laws into cOcct tiiitil
they Khali have been declared invalid. He re
marked very meaningly, that good cure hud
been taken not to impede or trammel with such
objectionable amendments any bill or resolu
tion by which any appropriation is made for.
members theinselvcr. Tlie declaration mude
by him that those would be no prosecution for
treason in Kansas attracted much attention.
His high and responsible position gives weight
to the assertion, which lie would not have
made without authority.
In the House to-duy, a bill reported by Mr
Tyson, of Pennsylvania, to regulate the com
pensation of certain officers of tlie revenue,
and to coutinue tlie Delaware break-water, was
referred.
A bill regulating tlie diplomatic und consular
system of the United States was passed by u
vote of 103 to 60.
Mr. Stephens, of Gcorphi, endeavored, biq
failed, to got a suspension of the rules, to ena
ble him to introduce a resolution authorizing
the re-publication of the American State Pa
pers.
Jn compliance with tiie request of the Scuat<
a committee of conference was appointed on
tho disagreeing votes of tlio two Houses on
tlio legislative, executive and judlcil appropri
ation bills.
The bill giving members of Congress an an
nual salary of twenty-live huudred dollars, besido
the mileage now ullowcd, and which passed
tho Senate by a large vote, is uow under con
sideration in tlie House.
Under this bill, tlie annual compensation pro
posed is to commence on tlie 4th of Al&rali,
next, for new members, uud ou the day of its
passage for present members, who are to he
paid proportionally to tliut time. This is, of
course, highly favorable to present members,
who will then receive pay during the recess,from
the adjournment to the beginning of the next
session. Mr. Orr, of Smith Carolina, lias pro
posed an amendment, giving six thousand
dollnsr to cnehhncinbor for.tbo wholo Congress,
sor three thousand dollars per annum.
Tho continued usurpation of the Vigilance
committee of Sun Francisco cutises some un
easiness here, not only among lovers of law uud
order, but among friends of tlio Union. There
would really seem to bo some ground for tbe
charge against the 'committee, that they are

that Mr. Picrpont is of Massachusetts and of

of Savummh witli ilia presence last winter, and
if we mistake not, was present at the public

at the entertainment.
It will bo instructive to the gentlemen who
were present to know, while the lips per

mingled in the feast, were looked upon by tlio
Reverend Gentlcniau. The smile of friendship

Under tiip existing state of tilings, we must
look with great circumspection us to whom we

California tliut seeks a separation irotu the

Here is what the London Chronicle, one of
Queen Victoria’s orga s, has to say in reference
to our presidential straggle :—
“ We should bo sorry to sco Mr. Buchanan
elected, Imcnuso he is in favor of preserving tlie
obnoxious institutions os they exist, AND THE
UNITY OF THE STATES. There is no safety
for European monarchial governments, if tlie
progressive spirit of the democracy of the Unit
ed States is allowed to succeed. ELECT FRE
MONT, AND THE FIRST BLOW TO THE
SEPARATION OF THE UNITED STATES
IS EFFECTED.”
A Compliment.—Senator Jones, of Tennes
see, in defining his position, made Die follow
ing allusion to Senator Douglas :—
“Of tho democratic candidates he would
I avo preferred Stepheu A. Douglas, who lmd
so nobly and so fearlessly sustained southern
rights, and had perilled so mucii in their be
half. He expressed the hope tlmt tlie tiute
would como when that high minded nud pa
triotic statesman would receive tlie reward of
Ids disinterested and noble bearing.’’ [Here
some applause in tho galleries was manifested.]
A Green Rose—At an exhibition of flowers
which took place ut Mnnlicim, Germany, a
prize was awarded for a very extraordinary
Iloittl curiosity—tlio most notable item in tlie
exhibition—a green ro.se. The petals, of tlio
flower were green, aud had somewhat tlie form
