Later News from Caltfornia—-The New Line to the Pacific. By the arrival of the steamship Prometheus at this port, yesterday morning, we received fifteen days’ later news from California, via Nicaragua— the new route of Captain Vanderbilt, consecting the two oceans. This is the first time that we have received news direct from Califorma and the Pacific in this way; and, according to all appear ances, it is only an earnest of what we may expect hereafter. By this news wo learn that San Francisco and Stockton have, phenix-like, arisen from their aehes—that the bustle of trade and commerce is again heard in the high ways and by ways of those cities—and that the inhabitants whose career was temporarily arrested by conflagration, (which was so destructive as almost to destroy the energies of any people,) are again on the high road to wealth, prosperity and greatness. Such extraordinary re- cuperation as we witness in California is without a parallel. It would really seem as if no misfortune, no matter how great, and no calamity, no matter how disastrous, can prevent the new State on the Pacific from becoming an empire of itself, and, in time, one of the most powerful States of the con- federacy. We also learn by this arrival, that the large sum dust is en route to New York. ‘This is, indeed, sur- prising intelligence, when we take into considera- tion the vast quantity of gold which has been re- ceived from the same quarter since the commence- ment of the present year. There is very little doubt now, we think, that the gold deposits of that celebrated region are literally inexhaus- | ible, and that the amount that they will yield | will hereafter be proportionate to the number of | The seventy-fifth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence will be celebrated with the usual | rejoicings, in every part of our widely extendedaud | presperous country. No political remorse will | throw a gloom over the great national holiday. No wohallowed fragment of the original Union, or of | the bright States which have clustered around the first confederated nucleus of this great people, stands apart as a durk monument of the ambition of man, and as a warning to those who have faith in the genius of a population bound together by wommon ties of industry, enterprise, mutual depen- dence, and equal pelitical, moral, and religious free dem. The sun looks down on alarge portion of the American continent, where, three quarters of a cen- tury ago, only thirteen struggling States fringed the Atla:tic, and man sees a sublime spectacle of hu- | man progress, and increase of empire. Thirty one States now span the space between the Atlantic and Pacific oeeang, which form the boundaries of the | most peaceful and prosperous country of the werld, gathering strength from vast internal re. sources, from a population largely increased by foreign immigration, and from the unfettered hands of labor, which at once add to, and tend to | preserve, individual and national wealth. Such a vesult has grown out of the principles and policy of our political fathers, who, three-quarters of a ceutu- Fy ago, pledged their lives and sacred honor in this parest and holiest cause of freedom—the delegation eof political power to the people—to the real govern- ors and sovereigns, from whom, through all the his- tory of the human race, it had been wrested by fraud and force, till society lost hope, and nations Were in despair This political Sabbath will always excite the @ame emotions. as at the preent hour, whon- ever ite annual recurrence takes place; and the people of the United States, true to the instincts of freedom, will ever preserve from the anarchical grasp of faction that glorious Union out of which has sprumg.all the elements of | our prorperity acd greatness. The wily politician may raise the lever of fanaticiam to overtura the very foundation of the whole superetructure; but he will eventually full back, struck down bythe very engine of bis bad ambition. The conserva- ive power of the people will always maintain the | Union on those very principles which reared it un- | @er the auspices of the fathers of the revolution. | ‘This faith is universal, and must eo continue while | the people hold the political power in their own | hands. Designing mea cannot turn to their own , eelfish ends, for auy great length of time, any doubt waised by special eestional agitation. The whole heart of the country, from the Atlantic to the Pa eific, must be excited to prompt and united action for the preservation of the Union whenever the hour of reul danger is apprehended—and, if sacri- Goes must be made, it will not be of individual States, but of those very individual persons whose political profligacy may endanger the confederacy by inflaming the passions Let, then, all the clouds inthe polities! horizon be dissipated on this anniversary of the people— have s haughtier confidence in the value and the permanency of our institutions—take courage in ghe hope of future, more brilliant even than the past—and be prepared, both as States, and as a wnited confederacy, to abide by that same policy which has produced such vast results among our” selves and upon other nations, fortified in the faith | Sbat it cannot be improved by a change, and that what has given certain benefit beyond the hopes of mankind, must be superior to the crude theories of | e@whitious politicars and unpr newpled demagogues ' Telegraphic Summary.

Important FROM THE Rervstic or New Gra- Nnapa.—Some days ago we announced that serious revelutionary disturbances had commenced in the republic of New Granada. ‘The news was not cre- dited at the time, by some of our commercial men; but we now have a full confirmation of the intelli- and the announcement of the fact that the insur- gents have been dispersed—most of them escaping into Ecuador. ‘The conservative power of the peo ple seems to have sustained them admirably. ther important fact is the abolition of slavery by the Congress of New Granada.

Annexed are the official arrangements for the cclebra- tion of the nation’s birthday: — such a prospect before us, there is no danger of an | immediate revulsion in financial or commercial af- | fairs. The yield this year will not fall far short of sixty millions of dollars; and we would not be at | all surprised if, within the twelve months ensuing, it should amount to one hundred millions. Suchan immense annual addition to the precious metals, as we have every reason to expect from that souroe, | | will of course exercise a great influence on their value throughout the world. This is the first arrival by the new Nicaragua route since it went into operation. The success of | the enterprise, thus far, must be grasifying to Capt. Vanderbiltand those connected with him init. Here- after, we presume, communication between New caragua, will be regular, although not so frequent us it will be when all the steamships which the company contemplate shall have been put upon the route. {t is calculated, now that this new route is in operatvon, that, making liberal allowances for , delays, &c., passengers, letters and newspapers will reach San Francisco from New York in twenty days, whereas it takes thirty and upwards by other routes. The great problem which has engaged the attention of the whole commercial! world, fur three centuries past, is being solved by American enter- _ priee; and by American enterprise the Atlantic and Pacific oceans are being connected at two different polnte—by the way of the lethmus of Paxama and by way of Nicaragua. When both shall have ‘Deen in fall operation, then will occur that great revolution tm the commerce of the world which has occupied so much attention—which has been looked forward to for centuries, and which Ameri- can enterprise will effect. Thenceforward, the commerce between Asia and Europe must seek either of these channels, and it will be rare indeed that a vessel will sail around the Cape in conveying merchandise from Europe to Asia, or from Asia to | Europe. Then will commence that further and ; greater revolution, not only in the commercial but in the financial world, whieh will make New York what London now is—the great centre and focus of exchange and finance, ruling the rest of the world. The middie aged man who reads thix article will live to see the day when this will be accomplished. If space permitted, we might enlarge on the ef fects which the influence of theee two routes is tined to exercise on the respective regions through whieh they pass—we might indulge in a few re- flections on the consequences that from the Americanizing of New Granada, Mexico and Central America generally. Our columnsare so much crowded to-day that we can only say that the rivalry which has now commenced between Captain Vanderbilt and his associates on the Nica raguaroute, and George Law and his associates on the Panama route, will hasten the etate of thinge which is destined #oon to oveur, when the government and institutions of the United States will be extended over the whule of Mexico and Central America, down to and including New Gra- nada, which last, accerding to every indication, is already ripe for annexation to this country.

Pasto and Tuquerres, the seat and ey the rection, are the two southern provinees of this republic. ‘They join Equador on its interior western Symptoms of a rebellion havi there Provinens, to the President gress, then in session, to made to the army, which was at onee its direction to ten thousand men. The President was also authorized “to declare and make war upon Byuador, in care it should be ascertained that she aided or partioi- pated in any way in the rebellion, or afforded suceor or protection to the insurgents.” Gen, M. M. Franco, commander-in chief of the South- ern division of the army, was directed to proceed with a force of about 550 men to the seene of the rebellion in Pasto, which he reached, and found large numbers of the people gathered into armed companies, and enseonoed in ‘@ ravine called Chaguurbamba. He attacked them om their right wing, and succeeded in dislodging them aad driving them from their quarters, The insurgents them retreated as far as Florida; and, on being hotly they retired beyond Guitara. It was soon after disoo- | vered that about 400 of them bad escaped into Kouador, prieots: headed by their chief Zara, together with their and bumerous others, On the 6th, the Governor of Tuquerres disoovered toms of @ rebellion in that provinee, which soon feeted itself by a pronunciamento being proclaimed. The whole province rove up at once. and declared c!vil: war, end called upon Equador to sustain them. These fects becoming known to General Franco, he gathered as large a force as circumstances would admit, end marched against them. In their retreat from the t forces, they sucecefled in acquiring strength, in large ad- ditions to their numbers, with which, in all, amounting to 876, they proceeded to take on) at Buenos Ayres, a sqmall canton in the interior of Tuqnerres. Here they” were met by another detachment, compoved of ‘tulions of infantry sud two squadrons of cavalry, nting to 1,000 men. A battle ensued at this place, of a very severe and san- guinary character, in which many lives were lost on both. sides, and many of the rebels taken prisoners, and which ended in the total defeat and dispersion of the insurgents, who took refuge in the adjoining provinces of Equador, leaving their dead and wounded on the field. ‘The head of the insurgent troops is Manuel Ibanes. He esexped into Equador. It is to be hoped that the speedy termination of this neurrection will — turthor difficulties between this government and Equador.
