HILBUB. wens EVENING STAR. THE REVOLUTION IN SAX FRARCI8CO Execution of Casey and Cora.—Suicide of Yankee Sullivan, &c., & A special correspondent of the N.Y Timer, writing from San Francisco on the 5th of June, gives the following account of the operations of the Vigilance Committee : On the 2ist of May, the streets upen the equare of the Vig‘!ance Committee were oc- cupied by ten to filteen thousand persons, mo- mentarily expecting the execution of Cora ard Casey, who had been adjudged to death. The crowds were kept back by the military and mounted horse until sunset, when they dis- persed. The shades of night gathered around the city—James King of William lay in his shroud—but the Avenger hed not yet claimed the dread penalty. The next day, three thousand bayonets gleamed in the golden sunlight. Earlyin the day preparations for the funeral were com- menced. Steamers were arriving with mili- tary companies, ies, deputations and citizens from the river towns, and the streets were now crowded with people The shops remained closed, and draped in mourning. At LI o'clock the church was opened for the func- tal service, and was soon filled almost en- tirely with lad‘es. Long lines of mourners were forued in the streets in the vicinity More than twenty thousand persons were as- sembled to take part inthe ceremonies Pres- ently, a large carriage was seen approaching the church. The people opened for its pas- sage, and involuntarily raised their hats Ev- ery check was wet with tears; for all knew that in it were the bereaved widow and the six beautiful little children of the City’s idol The services were short, but extremely sol- emu and impressive. It was remarked that the hosts of the Vigilance Committee were not in the procession, but stood by their arms in Sacramento street. It was presumed that this as merely a precaution against a surprise from the officials and the friends of the pris- oners, during the funeral ceremonies. Bands of music headed the procession to Lone Moun- tain Cemetery, but their instruments were muffled, and not a sound broke the stillness of that faneral march, save the stifled sobs of the many mourners It ra Now, a dreadful rumor filled the air. was said the Committee were erecting sc: folds on the roof of their building Thousaa from every quarter of the city rushed towards Sacramento street. A horrible scene opened upon their vision. Masses of infantry were drawn up on every side of the prison, flagked by cavalry with drawn sabres. Dangling be- tween heaven and carth, from beams thrust out from the two great windows of the Com- mittee rooms, were the livid corpses of James P. Casey and Charles Cora. Every equare ia the vicinity was filled with excited people, aud the house-tops were completely covered. | Notwithstanding the prevalent impres-ion tha the execution would not take place till the morrow, more than twenty thousand men must have been witnesses of the horrid seene A quiet day followed the funeral and execu- tion. Business was generally resumed—many of the wholesale houses having opened for the first time for several days iue a few compa- nies of military were still under arms, toguard | the approaches to the Vigilance rooms and to protect the Commitice in their deliberations On the 24th, the grand iw, reported a true bill against Judge Edward McGowan and Pe- ter Wightman, a butcher, as accessories to the murder of Mr King. It was supposed the Committee had aiso fu'l proof of the compli- city of these two men, and thai the conspiracy embraced many others Armed scvuts were immediately sent out by the Vigilants in ev. ery direction to search for the fugitive- nq all the outlets of the city were #"~ raed to pre- vent an escape, if the ™7\soners were still in the city. Warr-nts were procured and all suspectad uouses searched, but without suc- cess. Steamers were sent to overhaul vessels leaving the port. One schooner, reported to have McGowan on board, was chased outside the Heads, and a tremendous excitement was kept up all day as the coast telegraph from hour to hour reported the probabilities of the » chase. The vessel was at last overhauled, but the steamer returned without the game. The day after the execution the movements of the Vigilance Committee evidenced plainly thatthe work of purification had but just com- menced. Carpenters were set to work fitting up cells in the upper rooms of the stene build- ing used ss the United States Appraiser’s ; stroe—loads of bedding and a large cooking steve were carricd into the building, and a heavy triangle swung from a frame on the roof, a strike upon which could be heard in the far- thest corner of the city. None were allowed to enter the building without the password. Presentty an armed detachment marched into Montgomery strect, arrested Billy Mulligan, one of the Sheriff's deputies; Martin Galla- gher, ballot-box stuffer; and Yankee Sullivan, ditto, and prize-fighter. Other arrests speed ily followed, until, last Saturday, the cells contained eight or ten of the worst characters in the city. 3 On the Slst of May, at about 11 o’clcek, an- other tale of horror was on every body’s lips. Sullivan had committed suicide in his cell, by severing an arteryin his right arm with a dinner knife. In the morning he had com- plained to his guard of horrid dreams He thought a repe was fastened about his neck— that he stood upon the drop—that he was swung off, and ‘woke up almost strangling, with a cold perspiration on his brow. The guard assured him that he was not to be hung; that he was to be sent out of the country only He said he knew it—but that he deserved to die—acknowledged dreadful crimes, and then lay down on bis bed again. Whenbis break- fast was carried in he wasfounddead. Suili- vau had asked the protection of the British Con sut—but Mr Aiken returned him word that the British lion would not roar fer such as be; that if he took charge of him he should send him to Sydney in irons, from whence he was an escaped convict. Sullivan was an inspec- tor or judge of the election when Casey was stuffed in as a Supervisor of the county. proclamation against the people of San Fran- cisco—that a habeas corpus was to be served upon the Committee by the Supreme Court for the delivery to it of the prisoners—that the guns were to be demanded—and that Gov Johnson had asked assistance from Gen. Wool, and from the U. S. sluop-of-war John Adams, now in port. Oo Saturday morning these ru- mors began to assume consistency, and the whole force of the Committee was at once placed under arms. The streets were cleared tor two blocks on both sides of the Committee’s prison. Six additional heavy brass pieces were mounted, and swivels loaded with grape were placed on the roof. Two large pieces of cannon were placed so as to sweep Sacramen- to street. These guns were guarded by one hundred French muskets) ‘wo more guns, guarded by a handred of Sharpe's rifles, point- ed down Davis street to the steamboat land- ing A stroke on the triangle wonld hav called ten thousand mento arms. But news shortly arrived that the Governor had been unsuccessful with Gen. Wool at Benicia, and had given up the intention of calling out the military divisions in support of the laws Judge Perry, however, issued a writ for the person of Billy Mulligan, but the Sheriff was not allowed to enter the rooms, and got the cold shoulder from the Exec: Committee. Sunday, June Ist, was another exciting day. Charles P. Duane, late chief engineer of the San Franeisco fire department, wasseized and teken to the Committee rooms. He made some resistance, and there being a considerabie show of a rescue, the triangle was struck, caus- ing an immense sensation all over the city. The night before Sullivan’s death, it was re- ported that the Governor was about to issue a THE WEFELY sPak This excellent Family and News Jearna!—eon taining a greater variety of Interesting reading than can be found in any etber—is published on Satur- day morning.

The military were at once under arms, the squares cleared, and horsemen with drawn swords kept the streets clear in the vicinity. Duane’s friends how futile an attempt at resoue would prove. and so dispersed. On Monday, June 2, two more arrests of ncted villains were made. In the house of one of them, Woolly Kearney, was found a plain made, and apparently honest bailot- om, but, on closer scratiny. it was found to bea very curiously contrived machine It had slides on both s and bottom, chiselled out so as to hold in the crevices several hun- dred ballots. The sides could be freely opera- ted upon, notwithstanding that the box might be locked and sealed Bg upon as Spring, as many prepared Ballots as necessary = = ejected into the main body of the ox during the process of counting ! The Herald of Monday contained a call for amass meeting of the friends of Law and Order,"’ at two o'clock on the Plaza. At that hour some six or eight thousand had assem- bled at the place designated. The moeting was called to order by Judge Campbell, who mounted a platform close to the flag staff, amid the hisses, yells, and cat-calis of more than three-quarters of the assemblage Va- rious gentlemen, all lawyers, essayed to ad- dress the crowd, but the 0; ition was 50 overwhelming that the meeting was so broken up. When Col Baker, who had defended Cora forthe murder of Gen. Richardson, ai | tempted to speak, the uproar was tremendous, | Placards were raised over the beads of the | multitude bearing tuunting inscriptions ; one read “ Belle Cora—$10,000," in allusion to the fee this courtesan is said to have paid the ; Colonel Another bore a picture Belle, ! with ‘Belle Cora, the Angel,” painted un- | derneath, in allusion to Col. Baker's enco- miuims upon her angelic devotion to her para mour after the murder. Other placards read j “* Vigilants! come outside!” A man, mounted | on a lamp-post, held ® tin cracker box inscribed on its side, “ Patent ballot-box During the meeting one of the speakers thought the “ stars and stripes ought to float over the | only loyal assemblage that San Francisco hax kuown since the usurpation of the laws.” The flag went up 120 feet high, over the heads of the few around the speakers’ rostram—but | Just as he was commencing an invocation to it, | the block gave way, and the flag floated ma- jestically off, alighting upon the heads of the | Vigilants. A tremendous cheer arose, and nothing more could be done after. So the ; meeting dissolved—the originators of it fully convinced, I should suppose, that “ Law and Order,” as they interpret it, is at a large dis- | count in this city. | Tuesday was avery quiet dag. The Com- mittee were industriously at Sx. hearing | evidence in the cases of the prisoners ip |charge. The streets were left open to busi- } Bess, only a few guards being stationed at the | door of the rooms to prevent intrusion om the part of improper persons In the evening a ‘report gained credence that a proclamation had been received, and would be issued to- morrow, declaring the city under martial law Yesterday moruing the proclamation of Gov. Johnson was published in all the papers, de- claring San Francisco *‘in a state of insur- r-ctiou *’ Orders were also published requiring Me r-General Sherman to call out the divi- sions under his command, and for all the citi zens of San Franciseocity and county bet n the ages of 15 and 45 to enroll themselves te military a of not less than 5°, nor more than men each, and to ch oos0 j their cficers. The Committee Tec? ved the Proclamation very quicily There was no apparent movement on their part dari > | day, save that a few dr95-loals spas oe arms were deposite?, in ‘the armories of the respective Gi¥‘sions. New members were, Wever, enrolling themselves all day as fast "Leir names could be taken. At night the guard was doubled—300 men relieved each other every three hours until morning This morning, the papers are discussing the effect of the Governors proclamation. The Herald and Sun, two daily papers in opposi- | tron to the Vigilants. say Major General Sher- } mao will have 3,000 men ready for duty by ; Sunset. [tis certain that not more than 100 | men have reported themselves ready for duty | atthe Adjutant General'soffice It iskrown, | however, that companies are secretly organ izing in various parts of the city in obedience {to the proclamation It is also understood that the Governor bas called out the third, | fourth and fifth divisions. On the other hand, the army of the Vigilants will consist of at | least 7,000 to 10.000 men, well armed, before ‘night It is believed that if the men of the mountains respond to any military call, it will be to that of the peuple, aud not to the Governor. Sut no matter what comes of it ; the Committee will not lay down their arms till the work is finished. One thing will be rather jin their favor—they have pleaty of money, while the State is “bard up.’ Civil war is ; bad; bat the people of San Francisco would rather try its chances than submit longer to } the shoulder-striking crew whe have governei i us the past four years. MARRIAGE OF CORA. | Cora, the murderer of Gen. Richardson, | was married to Belle Cora, his former mis- 1 i | tress, about @n hour before his execution Tbe ceremony was performed by a Catholic priest. in the Committee’s rooms. His body | was given up to Belle, and buried in the } Catholic Cemetery at the Mission Dolores, on Saturday, May 24. His coffin was a magnifi- cent one, and a considerable number of car. riages followed bim to the grave. Cora was supposed to be possessed of about $30,000 in property, but it is ascertained he left little. CASEY'S FUNERAL Casey's body was given to Engine Company No. 10, of which he was foreman. Every en- gine house in the city was dra; in mourning for Mr. King, save No. 10. As soon as Casey was hung the whole front of this house was covered with black crape The funeral toox place on Sunday, the 25th, under direction of the Company. Every effort was made to get up a demonstration against the Committee on the oceasion Free oarriages were furnished to tamilies who would join in the ion. Horses were at the service of those who would join in the cavalcade. All efforts were futile, however, to get any persons of passable re- spectability into the cortege In all, about 700 followed the body to the Mission Cemete- ry The whole force of the Committee was under arms the whole day, but nodisturbance oceurred.
