By the arrival of the steamship Prometheus at thie port, last evening, we are in receipt of news from California tothe sixth of September, being two weeks later than what we were previously in pos- _ This news has been only twenty eight days | seeion of. coming, which is the shortest time yet occupied im the transmission of intelligencefrom the new Stateon the | Pacific to the Atlantic States. It came by the new Nicaragua route, which, at this rate, will in all yrobability soon secure the grater part of the pas- nenger trade between the two oceans. The most important feature of the news thus re- ceived is the result of the State election in Cali- fercia. It is probable, but not certain, that the whigs have elected their candidate for Governor, and the democrats have secured a majority of the Legislature. The latter is very important, as it cn- sures the election of a democratic United States Senator in the place of Colonel Fremont, whose term expired on the fourth of March last. The returns were not complete when the steamer sailed, but there is no doubt of this being the general re- eult. A portion of the newspaper press of California ie disenssing a project for dividing the State, and making that part of it lying south of the thirty- seventh degree of north latitude a separate sovereignty. If this movement should be carried into effect, the institution of slavery would, no Goubt, be introduced into Southern California ; bat there is not much prospect of its being successful. It is proposed to call a convention of delegates from the southern counties, to be held at Los Angeles, Senta Barbara, or Monterey, for the purpose of interchanging sentiments on the subject, so that the Legislature may take the matter into considera tion. We doubt the propriety of this movement, under present circumstances. It would reopen, to @ great extent, the slavery agitation in Congress, and, if acceded to at all, it would be in opposition to all, or nearly all, the members from the Northern aad [astern States. it would be much better, we think, to allow matters to remain as they are, for the present, at allevents. This is not a time to reopen the flood-gates of fanaticivm on the slavery question. ‘There {s nothing new or important from the mining regions. Digging is being pursued as usual, and a fair return meets the labor of the miners. Society appears to be setsling down, and order prevails throughout the whole State. We refer our readers, for further particulars, to the details of the news published in this day's Henao. Summary of News by Telegraph, &c. lt \s particularly gratifying to the lovers of this great republic, and those who wish to see the laws of the land fully and impartially carried out, to Jearn that nearly all of those who are known to have participated in the recent negro riot and mur- der in Pennsyly: have been indicted for high treason by the Grand Jury of the United States District Court, at Philadelphia. This is a very important movement, as it is the first unflinching step taken by the high judicial authorities to bring to justice the vile abolitioniste—those base calam- miators of the constitution, and reckless opposers of the Jews. But, while the governmen: officers in our sister State are thus evincing their determina tion to upbold the principles of our laws, we sin- cerely hope that the officials in our own State will mot prove recreant to their duty, by winking at the parties who aesisted the escape of the negro ai Syracuse, by breaking the arm of the } hal, violently assaulting other officers who bad th im custody, and brick-batting tae poli where the investigation was going on. pleased to observe that meacures have been taken to bring these Syracuse miscreants to justice; and although no arrests have yet been made, it is hoped that they will net be long atlarge. Thee violators ofan enactment of Congroes, together with their various leaders, abettors, and editors throughout the “cate, are equa ae guilty of high treason as are the Peaasylvania negroos and their white coad: wtors, and should jJealt with in the same man- mer. “Giving eid and comfort” opposers of la commending, counselling, and inst\gating forcible resistance : me under the head of high treason; and we therefore contend that all those abolition edit roughout the coustry, who have, time andagain to ret at nangh : indicted and guilty, punished traitore that the Hon.

Perhaps these ge aware of what might be the result of wance of their bors in the cause of the abolition ists, and thonght it prudent to retire.

Secretary Webster has signified his intention of being present next week at the New Hampshire Fair, to be held in Manchester. State affairs must be all right, else the worthy Secretary would be at his post. General Scott's Position Defined—More Let- ter Writing. The following highly important and characteristic letter from General Scott, will be read with uncom- mon interest by the politicians of all parties. It ap- | pears that eight members of the Pennsylvania Senate caused a letter to be written to the General, early last spring, as the undoubted whig eandi- date for "52, and here is his reply :— Wasuixcton, March 26, 1851. Sim—I have received your letter (marked “ confiden- tial,”’) im which, after the error of supposing Ppa Rp pp ts pee Zante tateresh shall probably point 3 Permit, me to say that, considering we only bave a whig candidate for the 4 | Nations!

PS—I must add, that I write and say nothing on public subjects which I am unwilling to see aes a4 The identical platform of Gen. Taylor, with al! the modern improvements. Experience is the mother of wisdom. (en. Scott’s experiense in letter writing satisfies him that if he renewed that line of business, “a long series would inevitably follow, to the disgust of the public,” and so he bows himself out “‘with great respect, your obe- dient servant.” The “fire in the rear” of the Mexican war, the “hasty plate of soup,” the regular pitched battle with Secretary Marcy, have satisfied the General that letter writing is not worth the candle. Considering the aforesaid experiments, the brave old General is general enough to avoid such ambuscading for the future. He says, ‘“‘con- sidering, also, that if his character or principles be not already known, it would be idle to attempt to supply the deficient information by mere paper | professions of wisdom and virtue,” he intends to commit no such folly for the future. But there are also other considerations. In the letter of November 10th, 1841, to George Washing- ton Reed and others, of Philadelphia, Gen. Scott says:— aT now hesitate between extending the period of resi- derce before naturalization and a total repeal of all acts < s8 on the eubject. My mind inclines to the tt That is to say, between requiring a naturaliza- tion of twenty-one years and the total exclusion forever of the alien from the right to vote, the mind of the General, in 1841, inclined to the latter. Considering this declaration, it is important to know whether the General stieks to it or abandons it. Considering, also, the sweeping character of this declaration, nothing short of @ new letter on the eubject will do. But, again, Considering that Gen. Scott, in 1849, wrote a letter inclining t» the annexation of Canada, and considering that he is now put forward as the champion of the free soil faction of the North for the Presidency, one or two additional letters would seem to be indispensable, to place the hero of Mexico upon a proper footing before the country. Ifeilence isto be taken for consent, what will the French, English, Seoteh, Irish, Dutch, and other adopted citizens do with the author of that dreadful letter of I$41? No, no! Gen. Scott must yet write one or two explanatory letters ; and unless he does that, the Reed letter will ruinhim. What are his present opinions of our adopted citizens? That's the question. ELECTION OY A RECORDER AND Six Porice Jvs- rices.—At the general election, this fall, the citizens of New York will be called upon to elect a Kecorder and six Police justices. The subject is one of vast importance, as to whether the persons about to be selected are competent to conduct the criminal mat- ters of cur city, and bold the scales of justice with an impartialhand. The conununity, we feel satis- fied, are deeply interested in the choice of proper mento Gli these offices, as the safety of human life and property much depends on the due aiministra- tion of criminal law; and further, that the offender may be surely brought to the punishment compati- ble with the crime committed. Considerable political strife is anticipated by the various aspirants for the above named offices; but the people, in making their selection, must be pru- dent, aad, by shaking the chaff from the wheat, | only place in the judicial chair such men as are competent to dlecharge the duties correctly, and thus render an additional security to the community, by increasing the vigilance of the policemen under their eupervision. In the selection of the officers, the public do not want to be saddled with old prosy, egotist sorts of persons, who delight in opp 0 ch men are not wanted by the peoy ¢ present enlightened age. They want men of sound, common senve judgment, with a true knowledge of human nature—men who will decide between right aod wrong without prejudice, and do justice to the party accused, as well as to the ute that to select or clect euch men as wehave named is no ordinary task, yet we dohope people whe pre We are aware that a selection will be made that may suit the ma | jority and sesure to the tax paying public that safety in the protection of life and property which they are ¢ dto A brief outline of the anticipated candidates and the probable rerult, although somewhat in advance, will, wo think, not be uninteresting to our readers, by which they will be enabled to form some idea of the prospects {the lection in the district in which heoorder, Frederick A.

At present, the salary is only ffteen hundred. Bo this as it may, we doubt much whether the Board of Suporvisors will hold owt any inducement of increase of salary to meet the ‘al wishes of the applicants. It is raid that Justice Mountfort declines to be a ardidate, unlees the salary isinereased. He iselect- 4 in the Siath district, embracing, this fall, the Twelfth. enth, Lighteenth, Nineteenth, and wenti Mr. Sidney H. Stewart, the pre- Police, is believed to be the fa~ for Police Justice, in place of don the part of the democrats, bury; but from the popalerity of wards ent Cler whig i | | | besides, it is presumed be will be the successful candidate. ‘The present incumbent in the Fifth district, con- sisting of the Seventh, Eleventh, Twelfth, and Thirteenth wards, is Justice Timpson, a democrat, who bas filled the office with honor to himself, and credit to the city. If renominated, he would, no doubt, be elected. Justice Osbora, in the Fourth district, embracing the Tenth, Fifteenth, and Seventeenth wards, now in office. This is termed a whig district, and a* the present incumbent is an efficient magistrate, and very popular, it is more than likely he will be again returned by the electors. In the Third district, consisting of the Eighth and Ninth wards, Justice Bleakley is at present in office, but he refuses to be a candidate, believing the election, this fall, to be illegal. James M. Murray, Police Clerk of that district, we under- stand, will possibly obtain the nomination. Justice McGrath is in office in the Second dis- triet, embracing the Fourth, Sixth, and Fourteenth wards. This is » strong democratic district, and the present incumbent will, unquestionably, be re- elected. ‘The present Justice of the First district, com- prising the First, Second, Third, and Fifth wards, is Mr. Jeremiah Lothrop. We understand he de- clines again befng a candidate. This is termed a whig distiict, and will probably return a whig no- minee. There are several striving for the nomi- nation, but who the most prominent person among the applicants is, we are at present unable to de- termine. In a few days, however, we shall be able to enu. merate the contending parties on both sides. The election bids fair to be one of a very exciting cha- racter. The Aldermanic contest will be closely contested. A bold push will evidently be made on the part of the democrats, to once more take the reins of goveinment in hand. Comixe To THE Rescve.—The Union Castle Garden Safety Committee are coming up to the rescue in solid phalanx. They intend to hold the State candidates on both sides, to the strict letter of the Fugitive Slave law, and no shirking or dodg- ing. Good, very good. The last hope of retrieving the character, the conservative, compromise, Union, harmopy-loving character of this great commercial capital, is now resting with this Castle Garden committee. We have almost despaired. We have been fearful that the bad luck of last year would keep the committee in the shade this year; but it is splendid to contemplate the style in which they come up to the ressue. We doubt not they are in good earnest—we doubt not they will ques tion every man on both the State tickets, and scratch them without remorse where they are defective. So that, after all, we shall have cotton introduced as a staple of this election. The canals and cotton. Let the Safety Committee look to it, that the cotton is mot thrown overboard, a‘ least in the city. Never too late to do good. We like the movement of the committee. It will give life, variety, pungency, and uncommen interest to the canvass. The cotton trade has saved our banks from general destruction. We must stick to our obligations to the South. Ferter Ixpicrwents Against THE Eprtor, AND ALSO PRINTER OF THE PoLicE GazeTTE.— The Grand Jury, at Newburg, Orange county, during its last session, found bills of indictment against George Wilkes, the editor of the Police Gazette, and likewise against John Cameron, the printer of said paper, for gross and malicious libels published in that sheet, reflecting on the judicial conduct of Judge Barculo, and the courts of justice held in that county. Bench warrants have been issued for the arrest of the accused parties. Obituary. ‘The Hon. Elias Harmon died in Portage county, Ohio, on the 18th ult., at the age of seventy-eight years. He was one ofthe carly settlers of the county in which he rerided, having emigrated to Ohio in 1799. On the or- ganization of Portage county, in 1608, he was appolmted county treasurer, and represented his couuty im the Btate Legislature in 1811 and 1812. He was elected an Associate Judge in 1814, which post he filled for twenty. one years. He was highly respected. Moses Warren died at Warrensville, Ohio, on the 234 ult., in the ninety second year of his age. He was ana” tive of Westborough, Mass., and at the age of six- teem years joined the revolutionary army. He was among those at West Point who were sold to the British by Benedict Arnold. At the early age of twenty-one he was married to Miss Priscilla Nurse, then im the seventeenth year of her age, with whom he mutually endured the trials and hard- abipe, and enjoyed the blessings and comforts incident to the family circle, from 1781 down to 1842, when the hand of death removed his long associated partner to Ler reward, and left him to endure the infirmities and suffer the afflictions of his sinking years, deprived of the comfort and the company of his bosom friend; but this privation was to a great extent supplied by the kind and devoted attention and service of his son Moses and fa- mily. At about the conclusion of the war he moved frcm Massachusetts to New Hampshire, in the town of Acworth, now Sullivan county, where he resided until his removal to Ohio, whither he wes induced by his eldest son, Hon, Daniel Warren, who had emigrated in 1808, to this, then traly, “far off country,’ and soon after settled in what is now called, after him—Warrens- ville, Hon. James Graham died in Lincoln county, Nerth Carolina, om the 26th ult.,in the 67th year of his age. He was @ member of Congress for a period of twelve years, during all of which time he was highly thought of by his constituents, He was the last surviving brother Of the Becretary of the Navy. Mr. James Richardson, the distinguished African tra: veller died at a village called Ungurutua, in Africa, on the 4h of March last. Ile had travelled over a greater portion of that continent, and his researches were of ihe moet satiefactory character. Dr. John Kidd, Regiuse Professor of Medicine of the University of Oxford, England, died in that city on the 15th ult. In 1800, being then a rtudent of Christ Church Dr Kidd took the degree of M. A ; in 1801 that of Bache ler of Medicine; and in 1804 he proceeded to the degree of Doctor of Medicine. Im 1622 Dr. Kidd succeeded Sir Christopber Pegge, Bart., in the office of Regius Professor of Medicine, to which is annexed Tomline’s Pralector- ship of Anatomy, and the Aldrichian Professorship of Anatomy, and in 1804 he succeeded Dr. Williams as Rad- | cliffe’s Librarian.

HER SIXTH CONCERT IN NEW YORK. Catherine Hayes bes now given her sixth concert im ‘New York, amd her success, co far from diminishing, ‘seems to be still on the imorease, and the popular enthu- siaem, night after night, to gather new strength. Last evening, her concert was one continued triumph from the beginning to the close. Never was public vocalist received with more vehement and rapturous applause, and never was it better deserved. This great artist does not cloy by the repetition of her strains. On the contrary, the oftener you hear her, the deeper are you in love with her glorious melody. Like a picture of Raphael or Michael Angelo, or any other great work of art, it will bear the test of close and minute examination, after the first sensation of astonishment and excitement has passed away, and new and unexpected beauties will continue to dazzle and delight the senses. An important accession was made last evening to the strepgth of the cerps by which Miss Hayes is supported —Marini, whose deep, sonorous, massive voiee is 00 well known to the frequenters of the Italian Opera; and Bou- langer, whose performance was fully equal to his fame, Marini soon proved that the gust of applause with which he was received upon making his appearance on the stage, was but a just appreciation of merits of the highest order. The manner in which he acquitted him” self in the aria from “ Ernani, ’’but more particularly in “Non piu or. rai,” from “Figaro,” was only what might be expected from his past success. He was most enthusias- tically applauded, and encored in Mosart’s aria, and the second time he sung it even better than the first. Bou- langer was very successful ; he is almost the first pianist that for many @ day has not tired the audience, at public concerts in New York. His performances were brilliant; peautiful, and scientific, and were warmly encored. Braham and Herr Mengis sung a duet from the opera of “Belisario,” in which Braham lacked force in his solo parts, but improved in the duet at the close, which was well sung by both, and duly appreciated by a diserimi- nating audience. Braham sung the English ballad, “My dreams are now no more of thee,” much better than the Italian music, which is evidently not his forte. In this ballad he was encored. The upper part of his yoic® is thin and wiry, and he sometimes strains it till it be comes somewhat disagreeable. It is by no means equal to the middle and lower portions of the organ. Herr Mengis, who has @ round, smooth voice, and equal throughout, was most happy in the “Bivouac,” by Baptiste. But the star of the night—all other stars outshining— was Catherine Hayes. On making her appearance, she was greeted with a tumult of applause, which told alike of past triumph and expectation of the future. She was drereed with beautiful taste, and well deserve to be call- ed the Swan of Erin, for her grace, so artless, yet 60 ex- | quisite. Her first song was, “a gem, of purest ray se- rene,” from the opera of “Linda di Chamounix.” It wasin thie opera she made her first appearance on the stage, at La Scala, and we are informed that 80 complete was her that, at the conclusion, she was called before the curtain (welve times. No person who heard her sing frcm it last night the aria, “O luce di quest’ anima,” could wonder at the enthusiasm, however much they might marvel at the gift that excited it. We need not say that che was encored. The audience were held in rapture, with as lovely @ piece of vocalisation as ever came from human lips. Miss Hayes is not much addict- | ed to embellishment in her rendering of Italian music; | but in this cong the produced a shake that electrified | the house. In the celebrated “Qui la Voce,” from “ Puritani,” she was truly great. She put # soul into the words that was thrilling, and the intense feeling of despair that was uttered in the line “0! lesciatenri worir,”’ was the very embodiment of the spirit of the comporer, and the meaning of the poet. There is a po- culiar fulness and a sympathetic sweetness in her con- tralto notes that never fail towin the hearts of the au- dience. In Bellini’s music she is always at home. But her greatest triumphs over the heart, were her two bal- lads, “The Minstrel Boy,” which she sung fur the first time here, and the matchless “Savourneen Deolish.”"— ‘The impetuous energy, the tender love, the touching pathos, the martial fire, the plaintive sadness, and the defiant exultation which she expressed in these songs, clothed them with the glowing colors of life and marked the difference between the dry skeleton of mere music and the animated body, with glowing flesh and blood moving and acting before your eyes. If Catberine Hayes exeels in one thing more than another, it is in her trath- ful expression «f the :entiment of the poetry she singe. It is this, with some other qualities, that places her at the head of all ballad singers. It would take a column of our space to point out and describe the beauties of her singing in that one ballad, “Bavourneen Deelish.”” ‘The inimitable sweetness with which ehe pronounces the two words “Bavourneen Declish,” is worth a volume ofthe songs of meaner artists. Of allwe have heard her sing we like this ballad best. Perhaps it was never so sung by mortal before, and never may be again. She was encored with the wildest delight but rhe gracefully sung imstead of it, alovely Scotch ballad, of an entirely different style, in which she was equally happy, but not equally great. “Savourzeen Deelish” ought to have been the finale. The audience was highly intelligent, fashionable and discriminating; and the honors the fair cantatrice re- ceived at their hands were alike creditable to their judgment and her execution. As we said in the begin- ning of this notice, her performances do not pail upon the sense, but continue to please to the end. Everfresh, | ‘and pure, and beautiful, the stream of song gushes from her bosom like a rill from the brow of one of her native mountains—now sparkling and dancing ia the sunbeams, now leaping down the cascade in sublime grandeur, and now softly and sadly murmuring with ail the sweetness of the Zolian harp.

Cherge of obtaining Goods by Pretences.—OM cer Elder, of the Lowell police, arrived in town yesterday prone from Albsny, having in custody a man nained ‘Alouzo 8. Hatch, a resident and merchant of Lapeer, Mi- chigan, on s warrant issued by Justice Osborn, wherein Mr. Hatch stand? charged with obtaining @ bill of dry fated amounting to $834, from the firm of Slauson, jarrett & Co, dry goods dealers, No. 30 Liberty street, vuder false and fraudulent reprerentations. It appears from the affidavits before the trate, that Mr. called on the above named firm, in March. 1850, and re- presents d that he wished to purchase a bill of dry on credit, andin order to induce the complainants to sell him goods, represented that he was worth $2,500 over and above his indebtedness and liabilities, and would place in the possession of the complaincnts collateral securities for the amount of indebtedness, until the bill was paid. Upon these representations, believing them to be true. and that the defendant would do as he agreed upon, @ bill of goods were scold to him on credit, and de- livered. But, before the first bill became due, Mr. Hatch called again on the complainants, and represented that he was worth $1,000 more tl hen the first bill of es purchased, and had discharged several of his bilities; and. also, that he had @ quantity of flour in a warebouse, in Detroit. rufficient to for $700 or $300 worth of gocde; and, further, that if the complainants him more goods. he another bill, and as soon as the, arrived at eer, he would ace in the bands ofa Mr. Ilart, asa proper person, the bilities, to secure the complainant for the goods pur- chased. In conformity with there representations, be- lieving them to be true, and made in good faith, the ccmplainants sold him a bill of to $824, ard forwarded the same to . Bince that time, however, Mr. Hatch omitted to make over the flour to complainants, according to promise or any cther securities, nor bas he paid for the ; but soon after receiving the property, he placed the whole of his effects in the hands of one Mr. Hart, with 9 view, as alleged, to defraud the complainants out of their pro- rly. The accused wes conveyed, yesterday morning, fore the magistrate issuing the warrant, wh. held him to bail in the sum of $1,000, to answer the cl . The smount of bail was given, and Mr. latch was liberated from custody. In making the above arrest, at Albauy. a seene occurred between officer and Judge Ira Harcis, one of the Supreme Court Justices, before whom the prisoner was brought by virtue of a writ of hareas cor- pus. Judge Harris, on review of the case, that the arrest was illegal, because the warrant, issued by & police justice of New York, had not been rly en- dorsed by a justice in Albany county, aul ing the legal service of the said warrant, and, therefore, dis- charged the accused from the custody of the officer. Bubsequently, however, the warrant was endorsed by Justice Parsons, of Albany, and the accused sgain taken into oustody and conveyed to New York. In this mat- ter, itis evident Judge flarris was in error, and we refer his honor to the book entitied “ Laws of New York rela- tive to the elty of New York,”’ page 611, sections 1 and 4, in relation to “ what warrants run throughout the State Tt will there be see the warrant: ‘a police justice of the city and county of New York, can be served in any county in this State, without endorsement A.

On searching the ofthe thief. no wallet could be found; bu: the 20 bill and the piece of newspaper were discovered in her pocket, having been extracted from the wallet, and the latter thrown away, evidently with a view of de feating detection; but in her haste to recure the con- tents of the wallet, she retained the piece of newspaper, which Mrs. C. identified at once, and the $20 bill cor responding exactly with the bank bill that was missing.
