On the 25th, at 8 o'clock, A.M, off West end of St. Domingo, passed the steamer Sierra Nevada. The passengers of the Ohio are generally healthy. Among the passengers by the Ohio, from the Isthmus, is the celebrated French chess playor, St. n on | will be mace to hear that not the slightest dan- Amant. He has been travelling through Oreg and California, by order of his government, and 8 will probably return, and publish an account of his travels. The naval commission, appointed by the United Btates government to select a site for a navy yard, im San Francisco bay, and composed of the following officers, have returned in the Ohio, viz.:—Com- modore G. D. Sloat ; Commander Ogden ; Lien- tenant 8. F. Blunt ; Lieutenant Daniel Ammen, Se- eretary; W. P. S. Sanger, United States Civil En- gineer; A. C. Jackson, Acting Master and Drafts- man. A man by the name of Hayden, from Boonville, Mo., was crowned in the South Fork of the Co- sumnes, recently, while bathing. A man named Cozzens was drowned at Boston Ber, on the 10th of July, and the body was found at aay Bar a few days afterwards. Me was from ine. Watermelons are plenty in San Francisco. A new: lodge has been opened by the Masons in Placerville, 1 Dorado county. One David Edwards recently received thirty lashes on his bare back, at Kentucky Flat, for taking from the claims of persoyg for whom he was at work two pieces of gold—one “Weighing about an ounce, the other two ounces. The election at Sacramento, at which the people decided whether a new lovee 2nd a new city hall a1 @city prison should be constructed, resulted in a ion to construc! all three, by loan. John Barrett, who waa convicted of grand larceny at the last term of the Court of Sessions at Nevada, waz cxecuted on July 10, at that place. Mr. William Taylor, of the Rough and Ready Company, was killed a day or two since by the blasting of a rock. A negro, named Joshua, was hung at Rich Bar, on Feather river, on the 18th inst , for the murder and robbery of Mr. 2. H. Bacon, tormerly of Massa- ohusetis. The Mountain Echo contains an account of one William Taylor, at Goodyear’s Bar, on the Yuba, having stabbed his younger brother James, whilst ina moment of passion. The guilty party was sur- rendered to the authorities. Gen. Estill and Col. Wilkes left Sacramento on July 14th, for Caraon Vatley, whither they go to superintend the distribution of the supplies sent by the State for the rolief of distressed emigrants. The case of Capt. Colin. Baker, the commander of the 8. S. Lewis, of Vanderbilt's line, indicted for bringing an excess of passengers, terminated en July 27th, in the U. 8. Distriet Court. The jury, after deliberating for a long timc, rendered a verdict of acquittal. Four of the sailors of H. B. M. ship of war Thetis, recently arrived in the harbor of + Francisco, have already deserted. Warrants have been issued, on application of the British Consul, fortheir ap- prehension. Twenty-one hundred and fifty et arrived at Ban Francisco on the 19th July, by sailing vessels. Twelve hundred and twenty-seven were Chinese. ie the largest number that ever arrived there in one day. The Corporation of San Francisco have purehased the Jenny J.ind theatre, and are to convert it into a City Hall. The building in which the famous San Frangisco Vigilance Committee held their meetings, and in which Whittaker and McKenzie were executed, has been taken down, toQake room for a more substun- tial edifice. Emigrants are arriving in Sacramento in great numbers. Many who started for California have changed their minds, and geno to Oregon. The grass on the plains is disappearing vory fact, aud stock ie dying at a foarfal rate. It is thought that there will be groat distress and suffering among the emigrants. The first wire suspension bridge in California is now in process of erection, on the Cosumnes, ata int a little above the dwelliog houee on Daylor’s eh. The dimensions arc 350 foot span, 12 fect in width, and 28 foet in height.

The cireamsteases which Jed to the Quel, were as follows: —The present Common Cean- ¢il reached office ys inet oe wend guration to he present hour, pata totally at varianve with the interests of the city, and in opposition to the public will of al) parties. In she courte of some editorial remarks, Mr. Nugent used some very harsh language towards them, which Mr. Cottor took to himself indivi- dually. On the next meeting of tho Board he got up in his seat and pronounced Mr. Nugent ‘coward, a coiner and rotailer of slander, and used other choice terms. Mr. Nugent challenged Cotter next morning. A friend having been chosen on each side, ® conference was entered into for the purpose of settling the matter, if poe sible, amicably, The attempt, however, was in vain. Mr Nagent would not be satisiied with any- thing short of a perfect, complete, and public ro- traction of the offensive words. This was refused, and the seconds made arrangements for a hostile meeting—Mr. Homilton Bowie acting for Mr. Nugent, and Mr. David C. Broderick for Mr. Cot- ter. Mr. Cotter, being the challenged party, had the choice of weapon.

The fight took plac> at hai past two o'clock, at the place agreed upon, in the presence of about one hundred and fifty persons. The word was given, and both parties commenced firing. After discharging two shots, Mr. Nugeat threw his leg out of position while cocking his pistol for the third time, and un- fortunately received Cotter’s second ball in his thigh, breaking the bone. Mr. Nugent, of course, fell, and the matter for the time being was at an end. Mr Nugent was brought to the city ina car- riage. As thero was no room on board for the horses they were left behind, the intention being to get horses when the boat arrived at the Soxk in San Francisco. There were at least a thousand persons stationed on the wharf, for the purpose of ascertaining the result as soon as possible. As coon as the carriage was taken ashore, Mr. Nu- gont’s friends insisted upon the privilege of drawing it to the hotel.

General Hitohoock, in command of this military division, is making arrangements to be anes at tho council, with as large a foree as his imited means wil] permit. Miscellancous, DesEnTION OF Sailors —A meeting of the mer- chants of San Francisco was held on the 27th July, to take into consideration the subject of the deser- tion of sailors, at which, among others, the following resolutions were adopted Resolved, That the abuses againet ship; ag rita here are so netorious, that the rates of freight demanded by ship owners, are at present higher to this than an’ other port in the werld ; have materially interfered wit ordgs and contract given on the basis of previous rates. will'tend to prolong the scarcity and high prices of goods now ruling in this market. snd seriously affect the po- pulatity of the port of San Francisco, Resolved, That in order to break up the prosent rys- tem of sailor stealing, we advise all ship owners in the Atlantic and other ports to ship their crows only for the voyage to Fan Fraveirco, to remain by the vessel until the is safely moored or placed alongside a wharf, be- Meving that this moored will have the effect of breaking up the organtvation. and also of reducing the high rate of wages at present demanded from this port. An Orricrr Snor.—We learn that on Saturday a to be mede Peniosutar, and Alviso, Santa Clara county, was shot. The wound inflicted, it is supposed, will prove mortal. Galla- gher, in his capacity as an officer, had some proper- ty in his porsetsion, which he refused to deliver to with him, for the duel grew out of public discus- sions, in which he represented the ( Hseag! ortion of the community. 1 am happy in being able to add that Mr. Nugent is doing very well—much better than could be expected under the circumstances. He is attended by two of the best physicians and surgeons in the State, and will be ou ain in a few weeks. His numerous friends in New York ‘er of any kind is apprehonded in his caso. The newspapers are in a sad condition for want of paper. Every journal in the State has been forced to appear in wrapping and colored paper of various kinds. But this is not all. The wrap. ping paper is nearly exhausted, and unless some comes to hand very soon, it is likely that some of the presses will be compelled to suspend publica- tion entirely. There is some expected every day, and the persons to whom it is consigned ask the moderate price of from fifteen to seventeen dol- lars per ream. entered into than for Eastern capitalists to put up apaper mill here.

The Tuolumne Hy- draulic Company are also about to give out the work on their race, to bring water from the Tuo- Inmno. The hard working men, Who put their thoulders to the wheel, will, sooner or later, rea) the profit, besides enjoying the high consciousness of conferring upon Califernia the next groatest benefit to tho gold discovery. Our friends in the settlements must not think that there is nothing doing. The miners on the creeks are all hard at work, and making excellent wages; while those who have been thrown out from tho gulches aro concentrating upon the river bars, and preparing for their summer's work. Soon thoy will begin to furnish their usual a to the gold dust market. Many of the richer 0: ‘aims upon the gulches, instead of being abandoned, are in process of being hauled down, a cart load at atime, to the water. Sonora Gulch is in this fix, the water having beon cut off with which it was before supplied. The water in the Mokelumno river is falling fast every day. Most of the damming companies havo cominenced operations, and some are ina stago of of having the river turned, #0 as to work the bed, in a short time.

New claims, however, are Beni taken up every day, and assoon as water can be obtained, tho rich ravine diggings in our vicinity will be again thronged with miners. ies during the past fortnight, we are assured that they have been very successful. The bed of this stream has never been worked, and we are of next two months. Whiekey Creek, which receives the waters of Mad Mule and Stud Horse canonz, anda number of rich ravines and gulches, is now sufficiently low to be worked successfully. A largé amount of dust has been recently taken from this stream below Mad Mule Canon. In fact, we are informed that all the claims on the creek are now yielding handsomely. The whole of French Gulch is now in possession of old miners, and it is impossible for strangers to et claims without buymg them at high prices. the miners are generally doing well, and some of them, with favorite claims, arc obtaining three and four ounces per day. The gulch is being thoroughly worked, and many fortunes will be en from it | before the rainy season sets in. Three men on Canon Peek took out one thousand dollars in five hours. Mining is actively carried on at Murphby’s, and claims generally pay well. Messrs.

Onthe 19th of July, two miners bought fn interest in Wal weighing one and a haif pounds. Bar, says that a are progressing with their works rapidly, and that in the course of a few days several companies will be in the bed of the river. As 2 mining point, per- haps, Winslow Bar is not equalled by any other on the North Yuba. No less than five different com- panies are engaged in fluting the river in tho neighborhood of this bar; and, judging from the amount of gold taken out of these places last year by a aoe companies, we doubt not but a rich yield of the precious ‘‘oro” will be realized by all engaged in fluming at that point. Barton’s Bar has heretofore enjoyed a reputation | among miners but little inferior to the celebrated | mines at Park’s and Sicar’s Bars. Companies are | engaged in fuming the river at this bar, and ex- ; tensive preparation is being mado to work the bed of the river at the coming season.

Shipments and Estimated Products of Gold from January Ist, to June 30th, 1852. {From IHuseoy, Bond & Hale's Circular, July 30. It is to be regretted that the data for these estimates are so imperfect. We have given to the subject close invertigation, and submit a table neccessarily but approx- mative.

Two WEEKS LATER FROM JAMAICA, News from Jamaica to the 28d ult., has been ~ received by the Ohio. The small-pox had very much abated at King- ston, but was still prevalent in different parte of the island. There had beon several severe shocks of an carthquake throughout the island. Our Jamaica Correspondence, Kingston, Jam., August 23, 1852, The Smallpox--State of Public Health—Bank Rob- beries—Earthquakes-- The Weauher, §c. £ The Ohio, which arrived hero last evening from Navy Bay, will loavo for Now York during this even- ing or to-morrow. #1 therefore string together such itoms as are likely to be interesting to your roadors, numbering among them, no doubt, many interosted- in the affairs of Jamaica. The small-pox, I am sorry to say, still lingers in the island; indood, in many districts, it is fearfully onthe ircreaso. It is not now confined to tho lower orders 01 society, but is doing its work of death in the circles of those who movo in the uppor walks of life. Thank heavon, howover, it is not on the in- crease, and I trust most sincerely it may soon dis- appear entirely. The community—particularly tho mercantile por- tions—have been deeply interestod lately in cortain disclosures which havo boon mado in roforence te- the Colonial Bank in this city. About a month ago, it appears, a Mr. Paploy, who held an offics ir the bank as under clerk, was takon ill. During his indisposition, he addressod a lettor, I om told, te the head accountant, in which he admitted having falsified balance sheets; and that he had, through his ingenuity, actually become o defaulter to the bank to the extent of some £1,600. It is said that he made this revelation because he saw cloarly that it would have been det ected by the individual who held, temporarily, his situation, during his sicknoss. The ‘bark autboritics, instead ofinstitating at ones criminal proceedings against Mr. Papley, issued aci+ vil process and up to this moment, he has not beer detected. The newspapers, that is the Daily Adver- tiser of this city, and the Colonial Standard, had come ‘‘ out ’’—particularly the formor—'* boldly ” on this subject, and accuse the manager and the the head accountant of the establishment with ar attention, which his oponed the doors for these impropricties, The Morning Journal arguos, that the Jamaica public have nothing to do with the mattcr, inasmuch as the Colonial Bank ise branch establishment of the English Institution, and the clerks, and other officers, are responsible only to the En directors. The Daily Adver- t ser argues that, as tho Colonial Bank notes are in ciculation in the country, tho ostablishment is res ponsible to every man Wio holds a eheck, and con- sequently the Ta are interested—dooply so—in the welfare of tho establishment.
