The numerous murders, thefts, and robberies in the mines, nad generally throughout California, are attributed to those convicts, and loud complaints are uttered of the evil. i; if used, Weare very much disposed to believe that those complaints are not without foundation. Whenthe existence of vast gold deposits in our new State was confirmed, and generally made known, adven- turers from all parts of the world—of all characters and desenptions—flocked there, with the expecta- tion of becoming wealthy in a short time, without labor—a great many of them being from Van Die- man’s Land and New South Wales. These being penal colonies, it is reasonable to suppose that many of those emigrants were convicts who had escaped from there, or whose term of imprisonment had expired. The emigration of the latter was, no system—we mean that portion of it connected with the promotion of officers, is hostile to the spirit of our government and institutions, and the sooner it is reformed the better it will be for the service. Weare glad toknow that our present able Sec- retary of the Navy, is impressed with the neces- sity of reform ia th:t deparmen: of the public service,as is witnessed in his report, at the opening of Congress. We doubt, however, whether Con- gress will have leisure to legislate on this subject dunng the present session; but we de hope that when the bill, making appropriations’for the navy, shall again come up, 1t will not be allowed to pass, unless the system be reformed. If Congress should not act in the matter before them, we would like to see the sub.ect of reform in the navy agitated throughout the country, eo that the people may be well informed f the defects in our present naval In telligence.

STOPPANI HALIL—Tasieavx or New Exctann, Friday, January 10, 1831, | © any desire to get through with the very important business awaiting their action, they must go to work at once and in earnest. Ever since the com- mencement of the session, with the exception of two or three days, they have wasted their time in debating matters of comparatively insignificant, and in some cases, actually insignificant, impor- tance, while cheap postege, the New York and Ca- lifornia mint bills, and other bills of equal conse quence, are before them and demanding action. Now, we would ask both houses, what do the public care about the causes of the removal of Gen. Lane as Governor of Oregon? Tue late President, with the advice of his cabinet, thought proper to remove him. He was removed accordingly. He was subject to removal, and by the fortune of war be had to surrender his office. The cause of that | removal is a matter between him and the late | President and his cabinet; but the public care very little about it. Again—several days have been lost in debating amendments to the patent jaws, when it is es clear as day that interested parties have their agents in Washinzton, endea- | voring (© procure legislation to suit their owa purposes, without respect to the nghts of inven- Yore—and when it is equ:lly ;lain that Conzress should not pass any actin the premises, without &ppoimting }commuttees to take testimony, and report as to What amendments are necessary. Too | much time has been lost in this way, and we now call upon Congress to go to work, and devote their tiention to the interests of the whole people. Let them throw General Lane and the amendments to to the patent laws over tothe next session, and take up the postage reform, and other equally im- portant measures, and act upen them at once. We perceive that Mr. Chandler, ot Peansylva- mia, asked leave yesterday © introduce a resolu- thon into the House, instructing the Commitee on | Commerce ® inquive into the expedieacy of re- dueing the value of the silver coms of the United States, by duninishing their weight, or increasing | the proportion of their alloy, so as to prevent their exportation, and to report by bill or otherwise ‘Pois is a sirange proceeding. If Mr. Chandier imagines for a moment that he can prevent the ex- pertauion of coin of any kind, by diminishing its value, he is very much mistaken. Does he suppose that by reducing the value of coin by act of Congress, other nations will be satisfiedj with the standard which they may arbitrarily adopt! of such of them as chose to ofler.

That aystem notoriously tends still fur- | ther to degrade the vi and an importation of those who have graduated under it, cannot, in the nature of things, be but a curse to any community. fellow citizens of California are complaining; but they now have it in their power to arrest the evil, if they had not in the first place the further importation of convi that the government agents and authorities shali see that the laws of Congress on the subject are | faithfully observed.

Since then, however, several have arrived, and all of them report having experienced a succession of gales from the west- ward, which were the cause of their detention. In spite of those gales and contrary winds, the propel- ler City of Glasgow made the passage to Philadel- phia from Glasgow in twenty days. If any proof were wanted of the superiority of steam over sails, in our trade with Europe, the quick passage of the City of Glasgow, in defiance of wind, weather, and sea, furnishes us with it. Ip is as twenty to fifty-seven in point of speed—a dif- ference which places steam so much above sails that the wonder is there are not more propellers on the route between this country and Europe than there are. The mercantile community of England and the United States are beginning to properly appreciate steam as a motive power, in the trans- portation of emigrants and merchandise. On both sides of the Atlantic, lines of propellers have been contracted for; and the probability is, that within fifteen years there will not be a sailing vessel, packet ship or otherwise, regularly plying between the A short time since, there was an immense rob- hile it 1s on its way to Chagres. There is nodoubt our mind, that these highwaymen are mostly Sidney convicts, who, finding it no easy matter to | accumulate gold in California, have made thei way to the Isthmus for the express purpose of rob- | bing the transportation trains. The forwarders of jerchandise, and the express agents on that route, should at once organize an armed force to protect | their trains, and with the assistance of the authori- ties of New Granada, pursue and capture the rob" bers, and bring them to punishment. probable that the New Granadian government | would unite in such a movement. Until semething It is very the kind is done, there will be no security for Rererw iN THe Navy.—There has recently come under our notice, a pamphlet entitled “ Sug- gestions upon Naval Reform, by a few Sea Officers of both the Line and the Staff,” which contains | meny suggestions towards effecting a reform in our naval service, which ought to be impressed on every member of Congress ; and we hope that the | little work, which may be termed multum in parvo, | will be distributed extensively throughout the | country. Reform in the navy is a subject which is fixed firmly in the public mind, and notwithstand- Ifa} | bery of gold dust on the Isthmus of Panama, and | by all accounts, there is an organized band of armed robbers there, who are continually watching | the arrivals of (reasure at Panama, and stealing it principal seaports of the United States and those of the old world. This will not be mostly the result of enterprise, but of compulsion. Merchants in both countries will be forced to employ steam- ships, of some kind, instead of sailing vessels, in carrying their merchandise; and those who first enter into the business will, of course, take the team of the trade. Freights will ao doubt be higher fora few years, until a regular competition is entered into; but they will gradually settle down, asthe number of propellers increases, until they reach a point not much greater than what at pre. sent rules. Itis to be hoped that American capitalists will not allow themselves to be outstripped in this new and important business. The success of the Col- lins line of steamships, and those of the new Havre line, gives gratifying proof that we can successfully compete with any nation of the old world in building steamships and machinery for ocean navi- gation. Tux Lonvon Inpus ria Exnipition.—We refer our readers to the advertisement, in another column, of Edwards, Sanford & Co., which is in the nature of a circular, and iatended to meet the eye of Americans who purpose to exhibit in the great Industrial Exhibition in London. It is of the greatest importance for American exhibitors, whether they intend to be present at the exhibi- tion or not, to have some agent to attend to their business there—to see that their articles of exhibi- tion are placed in an advantageous position ia the fair—to attend to the sale of their articles—to send them to the fair, or to do any other business con- nected with the fair, which it is not in their own power, being prea, to do. Such are Ed- wards, Sanford & Co. They will, for a small consideration, transact all business of this kind, or any other, on moderate terms. They are recom- mended to the patronage of American exhibitors, by the local committees of the States of Pennsyl- vania and Maryland. 8 have been attended with a and that no com| ard to tl When shall we have the same to say of the gas lamps? Wonperrvt Annivats ix Town.—Yesterday, between eleven and one o’clock, fifty-four fat sheep, of the Bakewell breed, crossed with the Leicester, from Hun- terdon county, New Jersey, and purchased by Mr. B. Lawrence, of Centre Market, were exhibited in the Park, and attracted a great deal of attention. They are quite @ curiosity. Also, lot of very fine camels, by far the best specimens of the species ever brought into the country, have just arrived im this city. They were imported from Egypt by the enterprising circus proprietors, Messrs June & Vo, Among them is Pg nid white camel, the only one ever imported. e learn that they have been procured for a new pa- eant. * Coutision on THE New Hanen Raitroap.—The ex- press train from New Haven to New York, om Wednes- day evening, came in collision with a freight train. at Mamaronec, which threw the engine and several cars of the former train off the track. The occurrence, it is understood, took place through the carelessness of one of the employées ot the New Haven company, who removed the switch, and thus brought the two trains in contact. The cars of the express train were da- maged, some of them considerably; but we are happy to add that no lives were lost, nor have we heard that any of the passengers were injured. The collision caured @ delay of several hours to all the evenin, trains to#snd from New York, and to the six e'cloe train to Hartford, which resulted in the disappoint- ment of @ large number of ladies and gentlemen, who were enroute to the miitary ball which came off at Hartford that evening. The Eustern mail was also delayed from the same cause. and did not arcive at our Post Office until late yesterday morning. We are uot at all surprised at this accident, but we are surprised that many more serious ones do not occur on this line, from’ the rough-and tumble way, to use a homely phrase, in which the business of this company is con- ducted. We now have reference to that portion of it carried on inthiscity. The fact is, that that part of Canal street, from Broadway to Centre street, and Centre street, from the corner of Canal to Broome street, is jalmost wholly monopolized by the New Haven Railroad Compiny, Canal street is com- pletely impervious to the citizens; the sidewalk in ont of their depot, and for # considera! at each ride of it, is filled with larg boxes of merchandise, so that it is totally impossible for foot passengers to through the street. The centre of the street is blocked up with freight trains, baggage carts, and wago! tages, and the city cart d regress through it, and are necessarily to take another route to get to their destina- reet to Broome. and Broome street, are rly in the same manner.
