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 Mil, EVANS'S SPEECH I Rufus Choate for Buohanan! • CHEAT ENTHUSIASM. mm *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. From the Philadelphia llidlutiu. TIIK LATEST FROM KA NSAS. STORY OF TWO SPIES. Grom! Pinna of Gcu.

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 Territory, „ state that just alter eras-ing the Nebraska line they came upon an encampment of 250 Free State men; they entered the camp, pretending 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 mado to intercept him. That'Ids party 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 regiment from whom they heard cnmllnnatfon of the statement of tho “vanguard.” They are ail throughly armed with Shirp's rifles, pistols, knives, and have several pieces of cannon with them; Gen. Richardson immediately sent a state ment of the abovo to Gen. Pcrsifer F. Smith, and advised him tlijit if the U. 8. troops do not stop and disarm these murderers, ho (Gen.

The meeting was tlie best of the season, only sliowiug tlmt increased desire iu 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 troduced to the audience. Mr. S. having been 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 men who went witli Lopez to that island. His speceli was received with great applause. After Mr. Levy concluded, Mr. Joseph Ga natil rend various letters from Senator Benja min, of Louisiana, the Hon. J. Clancy Jones, of Pa., Mon. Martin J.

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. If the Constitution shall outlive tho assaults and conspiracies of 185G—if the stars und stripes of thirty one free, and eqnal, and inde pendent sovereignties, shall aguiu bo restored to our shorn and mutilated bnnucr—if our coun try is still to continue to be tho home of free men and tlie asylum ol tlie oppressed aud down-trodden of other dimes—it will because tlie gallant and patriotic national men of the noii-slavehulding States shall have raid, to the angry billows tlmt now threaten to cngnlph iu one common ruin, the rights aud liberties of nearly thirtymilUons of freemen,“thus far shaft thou go, but no farther.” , h tudied libel on tho South.

The Ruffian Rally., IIY TIIK KMV. JOHN FtRKI'ONT- 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 Hrollier rulllnus 1 yo who dwell In your Hluiutlus builtul'lugs, All along the brink ol lirll, t’hulu your “boys !” unleash your dogs? lnm’t remain atlmiuu for Irillea !

Ho honored tiie city of Savummh witli ilia presence last winter, and if we mistake not, was present at the public celobratiou at Bctlicsda, (by wltosu invitation is not known) aud was requested to ray grace at the entertainment. It will bo instructive to the gentlemen who were present to know, while the lips per formed the holy office, what light these who mingled in the feast, were looked upon by tlio Reverend Gentlcniau. The smile of friendship on Ids lips, and treason in his heart. Under tiip existing state of tilings, we must look with great circumspection us to whom we extend the liund of cordiality. Men who en tertain such opinious of us Imvc no business in our country, except they put their visit upon tho footing of one who goes to see wild boasts which, if they do, we will have to appoint keepers to stir them up occasionally, for tiie edification of itinerant Abolitionists. now under the direction of tho new party in California tliut seeks a separation irotu the old Stutes, and the formation of a separate Re public nn tlio Pacific. A letter which I havo received to day, from a gentleman of San Francisco, states tlmt a very bad effect has been produced upon business there, by the con tinued usurpation of tlie committee, 'file weak uetion of Governor Johnson him prevented any interference by the President. Impartial. Tub F’s in a Fix.—Fillmore, Fremont fanaticism, anA fusion are in a terrible stow Just now. Fillmore has no liopo of carrying a single State in the Union, yet Ids strength is increasing ro fast iu the North that Fremont nnd ids abolition supporters are shaking in their shoes ut the idva nf being beaten by him. Fanaticism has completely run mad, and old fiu-Ion has been looking blue, os well as black, ever since the Lovojoyitcs stole a march an the falthfii) at Ottawa, Illinois, some time ago. The democrats intend to flay tho whole family of foctionlats finely, in due season, andwoaro anxious that they sludl put themselves in good condition to recciyo iL—C’Aieogo Times. ' ■ ■ 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 of leaves. Job Printing Promptly, Nently nml Cheaply Done.
