KING. [From the San Francisco Herald, Sept. 25 } Now that ic is known that Mr, King has r eftice of collector of this port, and that his resignation has be wpted, it is to be hoped that the government at Warhington will not send a stranger among us to fill bis place, Remarkable as it may appear, there are men in Celifornia who, in the estimation of the public, are capable of filling the office and discharging irs duties at least as well as Mr. King has. We would not be sur- prised, bowever, if some gentleman from the Waatward vere sent here to take the officefor. according to the wonner in which this state has been treated by the federal jgovernment, the idea must have prevailed that but few of us could “ read, and write, and cipher too ;” whereas there are but few California boys at our common schools who could not discharge the duties of eoliector of the port as well as any politician from the Atlantic states, [From the San Francisco Herald. Sept. 28.) Who is to bo the new Collector ? is asked on ail sides Some ray one mau—fome another. At least twenty per- rons have been named In connection with tho office. It is very important for the whig politfelans to be informed onthe subject atas early a day as possible.

Fremont’s Claim before the Land Com- Antssion. {From the Los Angelos Star. Sept 18 ] On Tuesday and Wednesday last, the attention of the Board wa directed to the argument of R A. Lockwood, Erq., one of the counsel for Col. Fremont, claimant of Las Mariposas,”’ a tract of land eleven square loagses inextent, in Moriposa county. Our limits restrict us to merely a bere allusion to this argument. Among the points which Mr. Lockwood urged are the following :— ‘That the United States succeeded to the obligations of Mexico with regard to public land, and are subject to all the equities exiting against the Mexican government. at the time of the cession. 'The question isnot whether the claimant had a complete title when the sovereignty was transferred, but whether be had an equitable right which would bave been valid but for the change of overpment, and which Mexico would have respected ‘his prent was tnade by competent authority ; the grant itself. being proven to be genulne, is prima facie evidence of this, unless disavowed by the Mexican government That presumption ie strengthened where the grant purports to be made for public services, as well as in pursuance of colonization laws. and the recital of such services as a concurrent motive of the Eat will revder it valid. though it would have en clearly void without such recital. The quan- tity is specifically ascertained by the grant. and that alone is sufficient without any ‘precise local boun- darice, and confer the right to select the specified quan- tity within the limits preseribed by the grant This being @ full title, severed the ten leagues from the public do- main. without any survey. especially as the land was in- fested by savages, The right of the grantee to select where he would locate the ten Iragues, within the speci- fied limits, is clearly proved; ench a right has been re- cognized by Congress, and by the United States Supreme Court. The report of the Commissioners of 1833 state that only eighteen complete grants have ever come to their knowledge, and yet they confirmed 345 grants that had been rejected by the former Commisioners. There is complete proof that this grant is valid according to the eustom and urage of the former government The fact that the land contained mineral does not affect the ques- tion of title to the land; but the right to the mineral is a distinct question between the owner of the land and the rovereign for tbe time being. and is determined by law. ‘The conditions annexed to the grant are all subsequent, and there could be no forfeiture for breach till judiciously decreed. Had the title been confirmed by the Depart- ment Assembly, no confirmation by this commission would be necessary, These are some of the principal points of Mr. Lock- wood’s argument. Mr. Cooley. the U.S Law Agent. will commence his argument in reply on Monday next. Serlous Dsturbances In Calaveros, SUMMARY EXECUTION OF HORSE THIEVES—CHILIAN AND CHINESE DIFFICULTIES, ETC. [From the Sun Francisco Herald, Sept. 20) Our paper to-day, says the Valnveros Chronicle. con- tains little else than a series of outrages. murders, exe- cutions, robberies, &e. Seldom a week passes that im- portant mining or other intelligence is mot crowded out to make room for items coming under either of these captions ‘The Chronicle details at Jength the numerous outrages committed by the Spapich American population in that country, The following account of horse theft, and the summary execution of the thieves by the people, we take from tht paper: Moern: Lloyd and Vander last Saturday missed their animals, And believing them to he stolen. immediate) started in search of the thieves. Thoy went directly to Jackson, where they gave a description of their horses, and lesrned that they had been seen in the possesion of two Mexicans going towar’s Clinton. They rode to Clin- ton and informed several of the citizens in regard to the animals, requesting them to be upon the lookout, On Monday a Mexican arrived in the town and offered an aviwai for sale, which he said he had bought at a short distance, ond asked $200 for it. Whe gentleman suppos- ing it to be one of those at Ione Valley, told him he didn’t wieh to buy, but he had one he would exchange and give him a fair * to boot,” if ho would bring it into town.

The decision being against the Chilewns, they thirsted for revenge, which one of them consummated in the most vicious manner. While one of the Obinese was cooking a! the toot of the abrupt moun- tain vhich borders the river at this point, & Chilean as- cended to its top, and pushed # ponderous rock, weighing two or three hunored pounds, so thut it rolled in the di- rection of the unsuspecting Chinaman, His attention ing called by a comrade to the avalanche. he fled to oid it; and supposing bimeelt out of danger, remained at a distance from its direct course. Contrary to his ex pectation, however. the stone eplit in twain, one of the piecer striking with tremendous force the leg of the un- fortunate Chinaman, fracturing it in such # manner that | it was smputated by Drs, Teal, Lind and Yarrington In consequence of this outrage, the Americans deter- mined to exvel the Obiteans from the Willow Bar. cordingly, the Chronicle cays, some twelve of them went to the,encampment of thi tter, but were met by some twenty or thirty of the aggreseors, who were armed with knives, cvtiasses, ete. They demanded the person who badrolled the rock down the hill, ond were told he was there, but they were not able to take him. The Amori- cans baving mostly come unarmed. did not feel prepared to attack eo formidable a force, and returned for their guns, after baving given the Chileans one hour either to band over their heartless comrade, or leave the camp, When the Americans returned, they found that their an- tagonists had choven the latter course. ANOTHER ATROCIOUS MURDER A most atrocious murder was committed in this city onthe “ist of September, before daylight. The victim wos Dr McGreger, a native of Scotland, aged sixty. five cors, Tle was found dead in analleyway. known as flos- pilal street, which teads to a quarter of our city inbabited ty Mexicans and other Spanish American foreigners.

Indian Difficulties, PARTICULARS OF THE DEATH OF MR. COATES. (Hrom the Shasta Courter | Yuexa, September 7. 1852. To his Excellency Jonw Biaren, Governor of the State of Californin:— Dear Sit:A few weeks since a party of about fifteen men, under command of Charles MeDexmit, the Sheriil of this county. started out for the purpose of affording aid avd succor to the immigration, and to protect them against the attacks of the Indiansin the north eastern sec\ion of this county. On their way to the foot of the Sicrra Nevada, about one hundred and twenty miles from this place, they fell in with a pack train consisting of nine men, eight of whom were well armed, and who, they thought, would come through with safety, as there was @ large Wagon train in charge ot two of MeDermit's party a day or two ahead of them. ‘They continued their journey for the purpose of affording stance to a number of farnilies Who were said to bein the rear. Not long after leaving these unen, they were attacked by the Iodians, and eight out of the sine were killed.

THE LECTURE SEASON. Professor Agassiz on the Gradation of the Animal Kingdom, Yesterday evening, Profescor Agassiz delivered a lecture- on the above subject, at the Broadway Tabernacle, to a very large and respectable audience ‘This is the second: of the series of lectures which are to be given at this building during the fall and winter, The Rey. Dr. Bure chard occupied the chair. The Carman said :—Tam requested to state that the next lecture will be delivered by John Thompson, Eaq.y on Friday evening next. This is an alteration fiom the tule, which was. to have @ lecture delivered om enoh Wedne:day evening during the coming fall and winter; but as next week is the election week, it is thought bet- ter to portpone the next lecture to the time T have stated. T have great pleasure in introducing to you Professor Agassiz; of Hartford College. Professor Acassiz, who, on coming forward, was loudly cheered, rald:— Ladies und Gentlemen—As soon as the study of the animal kingdom attracted extensively the attention o investigators, the chief object scientific men had in view was to accortain the extent and diversity of their differemt races. 1 was soon wpparent that, unless the most ferse- vering attention was bestowed to this study, it would be quite impossible for mankind to become acquainted i its divere for the races of avimuls which ' present upon the earth may not be counted by ds and thousands, but by husdreds of thousanda, scald therefore require the greatest ingenuity to by which to represent that diversity fim eb @ Uiauner as to render the study easy of access. ct whieh had to be attained, and Yolsties of solence applied themsely fications and attempted. cos of wnimals which most. But this #a ; to compare them with one re thelr most prominent cha- recteristigs, ant (o arcange them in natural ays tems. = Bar oe they advanced in thle study. the more iv focnd necessary to take into con- sideration, pot «ry the «xtenul appearances of those dife ferent races bu: aise thei: internal structure; and whem, by perravering investigation, the orgaaization of the inner form of the animal kingcom had become kaowm as extensively as was the external form, it was found that still other comiderstions would improve our | knowledge of the arimal kingdom. ‘Ther mode of growth wae to be considered; their remains, as buried in the trata forming tho solid crust of our globe, were to be examined and compared with the living races, and from all this study it became o>vious that there was io the auimel kingdom a living idea which might be studied with advantsge. But before a deep in- right in the study of all these things had been obtal ed, | we had to pass through very severe ordeals. and we have | devoted ourecives to investigation, the more geoeral ree sults of which, only baye been generail Jed ia the | community. whilst the detaits « Cgalioas | have remained the special object study of those who devoted therreives to the i gations of nabaral history. I will not venture to tire you #ithan aosount | of all these investigations, but will proceed at once to give on some idea of the diversity which exists among ani- is now liging upon the earth, and the characteris tics by whieh their growth may be recognized, and then the wfinities or relations which exist among thom all, When the mere ex'ernal form of animals was alone considered, it was very natural that those promi- went parts of he bedies of animals should be takem as an expr of their #ffiaity. For jastance. all ani- mele who have four legs become a class. aud are called quadropeds And. indeed it was so from the first animals, for intanee, who wall: upon nyed together. without any other re ferences Which exist among them, Alt birds were placed together and constituted @ group, with which we are all familiar, and to which only a few additions wore | added, which do not properly belong to them, For | example. bats weré added to class without any direct afliuity existing between them, Bat it was chictly among the lower and rior races of anim: that it became diMoult to find the li features by which to combine those many forms which existed all over the world; and until comparative anatomy, or the study of the t#her orgenizstion of animals, had adranced very far, no natural classifeation of these animals was obtained. It was not before Cuvier had discovered that al! animals are constructed upon four distinet pia that the internal history of the animal kingdom began to have a soilg foundation, and to be rationally studied as a positive science ; but that hero of science discovered that animals ere not only different by external appearances, and | iprernal modifications of their structures, but that the plan upon whieh they are formed is not upon one, but upon four distinet plans of organization, to which all the diversities of animals have been reduced; and these four plans may be easily studied, ‘and as goon as their liarities are known, nothing is eovier than ta rofer any of the innumerable forts oh exist to their proper place. and following out in detail the prinsiples of that classification, to assign to each group its natural position. Cuvier bas recognized four classes of animals, which are as follows :—The radiata, the molusea the articu! nd the vertebrate, When we consider the externals of higher snimals, there is ® most remarie able symmetry, in which we recognise a right and left, an above and @ below, so that all parts sppear symmetrically arranged a the two sides of an axis. is pot the ease with all animals, for there are those im which we find a centre around which all the organs are ranged, and those animals constitute that inferior race which we eail radiata, For instance.in the scuttle fish there isa mouth in the centre, amd all the digestive cavity is placed immediately above the mouth ‘e have here uo region which may be called bead, no extreanit cailed the tail and we cennot divtioguich between right left. between posterior or anterior, por can we distinguish correctly between above and below. We remain in doubt: in reference to the positions of these beings In all the groupe of the animal kingdom thereissyminetry, We always recognire the right and the Left; and im propertion as there regions are more or lest marked, wa find also that the head becomes prominent, and that the above or below is more or less distinct. The lecturer then wet on to deveribe on & board the affinities and aon-affinities or the four classe of animals, and contended that the assertion of Cuvier, that the animal ki! was divided into four distinct and different classes, was correct, and proceeded to say—The study of the rank of the animal kingdom aeqnuce an additional yaloe when we consider there animals which have disappeared from the surface of our globe, and which are buried in the strata forming tle erust of this planet Those contained ip the lowest strata, it has boen imagined by philosophers, were the first created; but this supposition has beem overturned modern science, which discloses tho fact, which one of great importance, that tha lowest strata contains radiata, molusca, articulatay and vertabrata, and not oniy these four grent visions. but slso polypl and star fishor, In the lowest strata we bave bivalve shelis, and chamber shelit, crustacia shells~not in the very lowest, but very sen #0—and in tho very lowest we find re; wor} hy pie class of fishes.
