press of matter during the week has prevented the tion of the nan * placer’ neon, which are, refore, postponed to the next issue.” This, to the European reader, will appear like the repre- sentation of adrama, with the omission of a roy material character; but the San Franciscans thin otherwise, and it is vere clear, from the consider- ations here published, that gold-hunting 1s not the uppermost thought even in the capital city of Ca- It will be remembered that the habitants of this province have, defacto, neither law nor go- vernment, but itis evident enough that this anar- chy is by no means of their own choice. They are, in point of fact, struggling as manfully for a ernment as Other States have struggled tor eodems but what success will attend theiretforts is a poiut_on which itis somewhat hard to pro- mounce. The simple exposition, however, of this extraordinary case is a3 follows: ~The laws regu- lating the admission of a new State into the North American Union are clear and explicit, nor does the process of itself involve any great difficulty, but, practically, the transaction cannot be seuied without including a decision upon the ever present topic of domestic slavery. No formal organiza- tion of California, as one of the States of the Union, will ever be permitted without a positive xecognition or condemnation of this institution, and the balance of parties in the States is now so even that either conclusion seems almost impos- sible. In the Senate, fifteen free States are coun- terbalanced by fifteen slave States, and until, there- fore, this equality is exchanged tor the ascen- icy of one or other party, no decision can armved at. The consequence, as the Ca- lifornians are well aware, is, that many ses- sions of Congress may elapse before any agree- ment can be come to on the question of their own territorial, organization and government, and they accordingly claim the right of doing for themeclves that which Congress has neglected to do forthem. It happens, too, that although this part of the question is left in suspense, another aad a less egreeuble portion has been summarily settled, and the revenue laws of the United States have been extended by Congress over the whole of the pevily acquired territory. The Culifornians, there- fore, complain, and surely with some reason, that are taxed not only without representation, but without receiving in retura for their discharge of this duty, the benetits of any government at all. «We aie left,” says their manitesto, ‘to find, feed, clothe, protect, and govern ourselves, and at one the same time to pay taxes in common with our fellow-citizens east of the mountains, to sup- port a government which gives them laws, and courts to enforce such laws, while we are to re- ceive nothing in return for the money we pay.” Such a curious case of civil disabilities never, we uk, occurred before. Qn the other hand, the same considerations Which obstruct the supreme government in forming its own decisions, render it unwilling to see the estion decided by others, and the ‘ob ject, there- fore, of the present authorities in California is to ve an air of as great legitimacy as is practiceble the Lemope + pans of anarchy and suspense. In pursuance of this policy, Brigadier Riley, has is- sued a proclamation Lene in terms as intelligi- ble as the subject admitied, the real form and vers of the government now actually subsisting the province. He asserts, that in the absence of any new organization devised by Congress, the ancient institutions of the country survive in tull force, except where they are in opposition to the of the American lawa; that by such institu- ions he, as commanding officer of the department, ie, ¢x-officto civil Governor of the province, an that it is the duty of every citizen to yield obedi- ence to the lawful commands of himself and his suborcivates. To this the Californians demur. They allege that they are de facto American citi- zens; that they are so considered, for the purposes of revenue, by Congress itvelt; and that if that ly chooses to abdicate its tunctions, they have an undcubted nght to act tor themselves. "1a ae- cordance with these conclusions, they elected an assembly of representatives, with a speaker and other officers, and proceeded to a provisional Ministration of their own affairs. It was the con- flict bstween the two authorities thus created which produced the characteristic collision to which we alluded the otherday. The speaker of the Agsembly nominated a sherii! to execute justice, whereas Brigadier Riley continued to secognise such powers as resident solely in the alcalde, the surviving functionary of the ancient régime. Under there circumstances the pos-ession of the judicial archives became a matter of some importance to the contending pertues, and the Sheriff betook him- self to the Alcalde’s court for the purp+se of forci- bly impounding them. The ‘Alealde presented a pistol at the head of the mtrader, but the Shenff, anticipating the course of the argument, had pro- vided himselt with a six-barrelled revolver, and his abtagonist prudently yielded. . These are the topics which now oceupy Califor- nian politicians, but the mtormation indirectly Communicated by the comments end paragraphs of the journal before us is highly edifying. The Most prominent advertisem is that of anew city, whichis to rise under the creative hands of Bpeculators within one day's journey of the dig- 28.

The “dining room and kitchen” of The City Hotel are to be let_for one year—the rent expected being about £700. Cominission agents and merchants publish their terms of business, bat there is no Single advertisement relating to personal labor or eervice. Shipping arrivals had been avmerous— the cargoes beln almost wholly composed of pre- eioue liquors and provisions. The Oregon brought 300 passengers from Panama, with the lntellig that the iethmus was still crowded with exe | pectante, and by the preceding steamer there had | | arrived no fewer than 12,000 lette he passage money to Panama by steamer was £5), curious exemplification of the value of to ven by the announcement that every s luggage is chargeable as freight, except wearing | parel, and even this when it exceeds the weight | bi 800 Ibs. The most interesting intelligence, however, is reserved for a postscript, in whi 48 announced that “800 tons of women are expect ed from Lowell,” or, in other words, that a ship ‘of this burden would he whol freighted with lady emigrants bound for the gold country. Such are the prospects of Californians as detailed by themselves; whether they werrant a journey, of | 22,000 mii a question for the reader to decide.

Those idle villains lived, as events lately demonstrated, by plunder and rob- bery ; and, aking sirenege of a partial and vul- ar prejudice which existed against the Chi- ians, this band of ruffians, after parading the streets, and committing various outrages, on Sunday, the 15th, proceeded, on the night of the same day, most of them inflamed with liquor that they had bullied the change-house keepers out of, to the Chilian camp, and made an unpro- voked attack upon all and every one that came in their way, tore down the tents, and maltreated the peaceable and meceonected occupants in the most brutal and cowardly manner, aad afterwards stole every thing they could fay hands upon. ‘The treatment met with at their hands, by one un- fortunate Chilian, will mark the characters of the members of this precious body more indelibly than any thing | could say against them. This poor man they found in bed in his father’s tent, pounced upon him, and, unarmed and defenceless as he was, pum- melled him uamercifully. He slipped from their hands and got outside the tent. They overtook him crawling away, beat him again; and, to fir him, two or more of them held him by the hands, while another of the brotherhood fired the contents of pee into his body. The ball penetrated at his ack, near the root of the spine, and, after going through, or traversing round his body, was taken out near the navel. as pen he etill breathed, he was struck a tremendous blow, in the lower part of the groin. The unfortunate creature still exists, dragging out a short life of torment. Next day popular indignation ran so high that 4 public meet- ing was called to take cognizance of this disgrace- ful affair, in the absence of all judicial authority. The “hounds” were soon apprehended, to the number of twenty odd—as gallows-looking raseals as lever saw at Newgate. The fellows looked like airy, bloated, London butcher boys, dressed up for a holiday-making, except one, the captain of the band, who looked more like a tiger than any man leversaw. Judges, a jury, dad ospassaan counsel were appointed, and the gang was tried, some of the members singly, and others in a body of nine oreleven. After a patient and impartial trial, et which counsel was allowed to appear for the accused, several were found guilty and sen- tenced, some to imprisonment with fard labor, and others to mitigated punishments. Daring the trials, which lasted several days, the prisoners were de- tained mn custody on board of the American frigate Warren, now im port. Those of them who are un- der sentence are still confined en board. * It is feared that they will get off, and be let loose again upon society, upon come technical legal objections taken to the trial, which beige! pings, appoint- ed by the people en the spot. If the * hounds” do get their ee again, and do not behave them- selves, Lynch law will probably be resorted to for the purpose of getting rid of them. As it was, a yreatmaoy of the inhabitants were for hanging ea as they were arrested, withont trial. ‘The want of judicial authonty, of every sem- blance of a magistracy and of a pelice, has been so much felt that a municipality is to be appointed, to be composed of respectable citizens, disposed and determined to preserve order, The election takes place to-morrow (the Ist of August,) after which pevce, quiet, and order will prevail again. 1 must refer to the Alta California, which is to be publish- ed to-morrow, and which I will transmit, for fur ther particulars of this outrage. Great blame is universally attributed to the person who has been acting here as Alealde for some time, ia regard to those outrages. He is accused of “sympathizing” with the “hounds” of corruption and maladminis- tration—in short. of every malconduct that an Al- calde could be guilty of. I refrain from giving any opinion, except that he is very partial to chewing negro-head, and fond of quoting technical law phrases, sometimes very much out of place and poppropriately. Itis hoped that his sueceesor will | adopt such a course of conduct as will insure re- | spect for the office (which, in the present state of this country, is one of great importance and mvest- ed with considerable judicial power) and the. sup- d portion of the people to his administration justice. The old Alcalde, finding the jediciat bench too warm for him, has ned, and does not stand another election.

The Electric Telegraph tn Europe. The official Prussian Gazette contains a long article relative to the first establishment, progress, and present condition of the diflerent electro-tele- graphic lines in Prussia, of which a summary may not be uninteresting. It appears that at an ted nd nod, after the firet practical application of this im- portent discovery in other countries, the Prussian government appointed a special commission and devoted the requisite sums for comme neing ex, rimente. The firet essay of this commission wi the establishment of a communication between Berlin and Potsdam y means of wires exposed to the external action of the atmosphere. This ex- ample was followed by the Thuringian (Lepsig- Jresden) Railway Company, which employed the wites and machinery for its own purposes. At the expiration of three years the Prussian com- mittee changed its system from external to und ground lines, threngh covered a tub which were found to answer all the required pur- poses. The method adopted was selected from among various plans and projects, the result of pri- vate competit The plan having been found to answer, negotiations were entered into with divers | railway companies and etates, whoee lines and ter- ritory required to be employed or passed in com- mupicating with distent portions of the Prossian monarchy. These negotiations having succreded operations were commenced on a general seule Jest year, use) ond in the moath of February, this year, (1849) the line between Berlin and Frankfort (on Meine), a distanee of 90 German nules (say 400 Koghsh) wascompleted, and brought into action his line has intervening stations at Jutrerbock, Cothen, Halle, Erfurt, Bisenach, Kas- | cel, and Gieasen. The underground portion of this | line could, however, be conducted no farther than Kisenech. that town being the present terminus of the BerlioeFrackfort Railway, which, it is emp. posed, will not he contemplated from Euwenach to | Frankfort wader four or five years. A second te- legraphic line to Aix-la-Chapelle, distant 99 Ger- man miles, (say 450 English,) with branches to Elberfeldt, was terminuted in June last, with in- tervening stations at all the principal towns, in- eludin; lagdeburg, Brunswick, Hanover, Dus- seldorf, and Cologne. The whole of this tele- gray hic line was laid under ground, including the passage of the Slavel, between Potsdam and Bran- denburg, the Elbe, by Magdeburg, and the Rhine, by Cologne. The gutta-percha tubes were, in the latter passages, inclosed in iron Pipes, sunk in the beds of the chasms, and have answered completely. (The motives are not given why the tubes could not have been laid down on the railway bridges, over the Slavel and Elbe.) A third line has been established, With intervening stations, from Berlin to Hamburg, a distance of miles, (say 170 En- glish.) A fourth line between Berlin and Stet- Un, distant eighteen mules, (eighty-two En- glish.) (The German mile is calculated here, in round numbers, at 4) English, which is tolerably correct.) A fifth, underground line, is being con- structed frem Berlin to Breslau, and thence to the Austrian frontier at Oderbe: the distance of which will be 72 miles, (325 English.) | Until this latter work is completed, the telegraphic commu- nications are conducted to and from Oderberg by suspended wires belonging to ths Sicilian Ral way Company. At the present moment the cities of Aix-la-Chapelle, Erankfort-on-the-Maine, Ham- burg, and Stettin, are telegraphically connected with Berlin by underground wires, having a total length of 245 miles, (1,100 Enghish,) the total cost of which has not exceeded 400,000 rix dollars, (say £48,000.) before the expiration of the year the Oderberg line will be completed, making in the whole 317 mules, (1,427 English.) Tis line will upite with the Austrian telegraphs, and will thus connect Aix-la-Chapelle, Hamburg, and Stettin, via Berlin, with the Adriatic at Trieste. In the course of a short time also, and in connection with the Great Eastern Railway, similar telegraphic lunes will take place at Konigsberg and Dantzic within afew minutes’ communication with Berlin. These difierent telegraphic lines are not to be re- stricted to government Purpose . They will be placed at the disposition of the public, of course under certain restrictions, that will facilitate the use, but prevent the abuse of the lines. Those of Aix-la-Chapelle and Hamburg will be opened for public convenience before the end of the present month, according to the tanff and regulations, to be published so soon as they have received the King’s sanction. The administration of the tele- graphiclinesis placed under the direction of agents, whose office 18 at the general Fever and is subordinate to the Minister of Commerce and Public Works. In addition to this central board, a few minor offices will be established in the city, whose business it will be to receive despatches and communications, and forward them instanter to the central office, where they will be expedited in the required direction. It is anticipated that the great facilities eflered to the mercantile public, and to the press, will give such employment to the lines as will serve to pay the interests of the sums expended in their establishment, as well as current expenses. London merchants having to commu- nicate with Trieste, or with intervening places, will be enabled to do 80 next month, most rapidly and joe ically, through their correspondents at Ham- rg. (From the London Athenwum, September 22.) __ “On the Present State of Etectro-Telegr: hic Communication in Englaud, Prussia, and Ame- rica,” by Mr. Whishaw.—Mr. Whishaw stated that the shiect of his present communication was Rot (0 bring before the section the numerous telegraphic instruments now in use and recently made public ; but to point out the advantages and disadvantages of the three great systems of electric telegraphs now inoperation in England, Prussia, and America. In England the wires, being suspended from post to post along the sides of railways, are exposed to the following disadvantages :—running of trains off the lines, by which posts and wires are all carried ¢ wa together, and thus the communication 1s stopped. Secondly, from atmospheric influences, whereby irregular and uncertain deflections of the needles in Cooke and Wheatstone’s telegraphic instruments take place, besides occasional declination to parts of the instruments, &c. Thirdly, from snow storms, as in the case of the Southeastern Telegraph which occurred during the last winter, when the wires and posts were all removed, and considerable in- terruption was caused in the transmission of communications. Fourthly, from damage by ma- licious persons, who sometimes twist the wires together; and for whose apprehension rewards have frequently been offered by the English com- panies. Fifthly, the wires have sometimes been connected tegether by fine wire nicely sol- dered to the line wires, and thus the communi- cations have been diverted from their right channel. Sixthly, the expense, viz, £150 a mile, forthe above-ground system, with an annual ex- penditure for repairs. Seventhly,—and conse- quently, heavy charges for the transmission of mes- seges. Eighthly, the time required in learning per- fectly the manipulations of the needle telegraph, so that if a telegraphist is from any cause disabled, there is no one at hand to take place. With regard to the charges, the following facts will suf- fice to show the advantages of economical tele- graphs. In America, the charge for twenty words, trensmitted by the telegraph to the distance of 500 miles is but 48.; whereas by the English company’s charge the same communications would only be transmitted 60 miles, or less than one-eighth the distance-—and by the South-Eastern Company's charges not 20 miles, or one twenty-fifth of the 500 miles. Again, & communication of ninety words in America may be transmitted from Wash- —— to New Orleans, 1,716 miles, for 41s. Sd.; whereas by the Electric’ Telegraph Company's cherges would only be transmitted a little more thon 260 mules, and by the South- astern Som- pany’s ecale under 100 miles. ‘The extent of tele- graphs in Great Britain at present is about 2,000 miles ; and there yet remain railways to an equal extent without telegraphs. Mr. Whishaw express ed a hope that within a short time e pal town in the kingdom would be c telegraph, as the underground system may be ef fected without the aid oF railwaye, viz. under turne nike roads and towing paths, &e. Thi plan has | practically carried out in Pras where at t resent time there are equal to 1,492.92 English mules in actual operation. A single wire, coated with gutta-percha, is laid under the railway, at the depth of two feet, and connected with the instruments and batteries at the diflerent stations. A colloquial and also a printing telegraph are used in each princwal eta- tion—both worked as required by the single wire. The expe nt as to { wire inthe ground was ce ego, and being found to answer perfectly, the 10 Prussian telegraph commissioner, appointed in 1844, determined on adopting the underground plan entirely for the voveroment telegraphs, and which were commenced in July, 1848, so that no time has been lost in carrying them out. At Oderbay, the Prussian, eystem is in connexion with the tele- grophic lice now in course of construction be- tween that place and Trieste, via Vienna ; and as regards the Prussian government telegraphs, the pubhe hes the advantage of them by payment of certein fixed rates. The cost of the td sys- tem is under £40 a mile. The American system is remarkoble forthe great extent to which it is already carried—viz., 10,511 miles, costing less then £20 2 mule. It consists of a single iron wire supported from post to post, but 18 carried far be- yond the limites of railways, and is consequently frequently damaged, #0 that a code of rales is establiched for the repair of the wires, which is underteken by gentlemen living along the lines, and who are Rotnie hed with aset of tools for the purpese—their reward being the free use of the telegraph for their own private communications. The economy of first cost, however, causes a very low tarifi for the transmrssion of communications, £0 that the poorest person is enabled, for a fe cents, to send a communication to a considerable distance. From the actual operations of the three systems, it appears that the Pre s the most simple, effective, and economic pairs are not required to the line wires, as ia the cases of England and America, where they are exposed fo Fo mony casusities. Mr. Flenoghan, of Kentucky, made some ob- servation respecting the mode of repairing and keeping in repair the telegraphs in America.

Microscopical Investigations on the Patho. y of Chotera, [From the Medical (Epglixh) Gazette } _ Dr. Brittan, lecturer on general anatomy and phy- siology at the Bristol (Iungland) Medical School, gives, in the last number of the Medical Gazette, the following interesting account of certain micro- scopic investigations on the origin of the cholera, in which he has been engaged :— On Monday, July 9, in conjunction with Mr. J. G, Swayne, as felow-member of a sub-committee appointed by the Bnstol Medico-Chirurgical So- clety for the microscopic investigation of choleraic evacuations, I examined two specimens of rice- water dejection ; and on comparing our drawings made frem them, and produced before the sub- committee, we were struck with the peculiar ap- pearance of certain bodies depicted in each. Oa urther prosecuting this investigation | found these bodies to be constantly present in the rice-water evacuation of cholera patients, and offering the same characteristic appearance that distinguished them from anything | had before observed. In or- der to ascertain if they bore in their size or quan- tity any relation to the severity of the symptoms, I endeavored to obtain specimens passed by the same patient at different periods, as well as to complete the observation by an account of his condition at the time | The result was, that as sevaral cases in my table indicated, and as other cases not recorded seemed to prove, I became convinced that a cer- tain relation does exist between the size and*num- ber of these bodies, and the time elapsed after the seizure, taken in connection with the severity of the apropeens That isto sey, they are small and clearly defined in the matter vomited ; they be- come larger and more compound in the dejections: and as the disease progresses favorably, where 1 have had the opportunity of examining, they vanish as the symptomsdisappear and the motions regain their natural appearance. | found that in healthy solid motions these bedies did not exist, nor could I meet with them in the fluid stools of typhus and other diseases, but that they were present in the cases of severe choleraic diarrhwa so prevalent in districts where the disease abounds: and | was thus led to the necessary inference, that these bo- dies were peculiar to the evacuations of cholera patients, and must have some essential relation to the disease. Hlaving been thus led to consider these bodies (which, from the characteristic of their appear- ance, I have termed annular bodies,) in some man- ner essentially connected with cholera, I wished to ascertain Whether it might be as cause and and agent, or eflect and_ product; that it could not be the latter seemed evident at once from the fact that they were unlike any of the known healthy or morbid elements of the bedy, or secretions, and as they were found in the vomited matters apparently in anearly stage of developement, it seemed proba- ble they were introduced From without, and would be met with in the‘atmorphere, &c. of places where cholera was rife. Accordingly, with the view .to test the truth of this supposition, on July 19th, with the kind assistance of, and an apparatus suggested by, Dr. Bernard, | condensed about one drachm of fluid from the atmosphere of a room in a house from which five patients had been removed the day previous to the cholera hospital, and found ia 1t bo- dies of the same appearance as those in the matter vomited. I soon afterwards repeated the experi- ment, with the aid of Mr. Kalph Bernard, in a cell in the bridewell, which had been unoccupied for some time, but adjoining cells the occupants of some of which had been seized with cholera, one of whom died the day before. Here also the same result was obtained. The came experiment was then tried in situations free from cholera, but with a negative result ; the fluid here obtained was destitute of these bodies, and contained only small portions of hyaline struc- tureless matter, also observed in the f i have since repeated these experiments, aided by Dr. William Rudd, several umes, with the same posi- tive and negative results, and therefore fee! justi- fied in stating that the same will follow similar in- vestigations made elsewhere, if the necessary care be taken, and a glase of sufliciently high power (1 ured a Rose's 1-12th) be employed... ‘The only question remaining is, as to the identity of the an- nular bodies thus shown to exist in the atmosphere of cholera districts, and in the vomited matter and evacuations of cholera patients, Most of those to whom Ihave shown the specimens entertain no doubt on the subject, and all seem to concur in their identity of form. T all that 18 possible in respect tomatters of such extreme minuteness, and we must, | imagine, be satiefied here, es in similar cases, to form our opinion on circumstantial end corrobating evi+ dence. And when we consider that this form is in iteelf of too definite, a character to be one of mere chance ; that the sizes are progressive, accu- rate measurement showing those in atmosphere to average from the 10,000th to the 3,000th of an inch in diaineter ; those in vomit from the 8,000th to the 5,000th; those in dejestions from the 6,000th to the 500th ; whilst they are met with inthe same specimen of dejestion in all the intermediate sta- stages of palpably the same object—the interence is, it appears to me, conclusive, that the annular bo- dies of atmosphere, vomit and dejection, are but the three stages of developement of one and the same body, of whatever nature it may be.

Here she met with a frerh disappointment, for she was informed that thet gentleman had gone to Remegate. She resolved to go after him, and made ar- rangeiuents io etart by a train the following morning, and it happened, by an odd coincidence, that Mz, Bod- | | kin, who had been prevented from starting so early as | he expected, travelied down by the same train, andthe lady and ber learned counsel net each other upon the arrival of the train at the station. After a short con- sultation, the lady became aware of the hoax that had been praetised upon her, and she immediately return- ed to London, and the next day she and her husband started for Italy.
