We are aga‘n obliged, by the groat demand upom our space, to condense as much as pamible the letters of our Correspondents. Im so doing, however, we have not omitted any information contained therein, and we have no doubt our readers will be better satisfied, as tt will also prove an economy of time to them. We are in recs'pt of an extensive correspondence from California, all of which concurs in representing that State asin e ourishing condition. One of our eorrespondents (@ lady, we enspect,) informa us that itis the only State in the Union where a due respect is paid to ‘that mise- rable class called bachelors’’—that, thanks to the antl- olpations of doting mammas, they are absolately deified Our correspondent, however, is ‘‘disgusted’’ to find that it is the gold which is deified, after all, and not the bache- Jors, and that the fair sex only worship those delties who have abundases of the precious metal. This cer- tainly is « terrible condition of things, and should be re- medied immediately. We trust the revolution will mot be confined to California, but that its influence will be felt in every State, for the cake of ‘the Union.’ A correspondent from Sacramente City sends us @ re port of the proceedings of the State Convention held there on March 12, for the election of delegates to the Democratic National Convention which is to assemble at Olncinnati on the 24 of Jane next: Resolutions were, it appears, offered by Governor Bigler in favor of the nomination of Mr. Buchanan tor the Presidency, and instructing the delegates to vote to support him until his name should be withdrawn by # majority of his known friends. The following are the names of the delegates appointed, who, our correspondent says, “are good men and will obey instructions: — Mesers. Dash, of Shasta; Rust, of Sutler; Dawley, of Ne- vada; Buel, of Eldorado; Solomon, of Taclumne; Hill, of Sonoma; Inge, of San Francis:0; and Brent, of Los An- geles—numbering eight altogether. Another California correspondent writes us to the same effect, and adde that ail the efforts of the Pierce delegates were fruitless. He says: ‘‘The democracy of California are full of vitahty, and if the discordant elements ot the party could be brought in‘o harmonious action, there is no doubt that they would carry the State.” The Gwinand Broderick fac'ions are, it appears, as boslile towards each other as if they did not protess the same political faith, while tke determination is constantly avowed that they will not give way aninch, The Broderick party, contrary to general expectation, offered little or no re- sletance to the passage in the convention of resolutions favoring the Nebraska bill and spproving the policy of General Fierce. The whig party, we are told, has no existence in California, and in consequence of the demand for emigration Know Nothingiam is not so popular there aaitisin otber Sta‘es. Even the crusade whish has been waged against the Chinese, it has appears, lost ite intemity, and the propriety of repealing the laws now in operation egainst them has nearly the entire press among its advocates, There are, also, our correspondent says, indications of strong efforts being made to organize a repub:ican party; but he believes the nominee of the Democratic Convention a! Cincinnati willcarry the State if the party are active and vigtlant, which they must be, a6 the nigger worshippers have held various mee ‘ings to per’ect a wide spresd organization in the interest of Seward or ore of his followers, Speaking of the affairs of Adwms & Co., he pa that the creditors have been notified to send in their claims to the referee before May next, Alfred A, Cohen, # young Engitshmas, who became connected with Woods bofore the fai ure, and who was appointed receiver, haa been committed to prison for contempt. The Court has been engaged in de- termining the amount of funds that came into Cobén’s hands as receiver, and the jury have ordered a verdict that he received $260,000. He turned over to the new receiver $148,500, which is al}, he contends, that was paid him—the amount ciaimed by the prosecution as in his possesaion being nearly $400,000, In regard to the trou- bles with the Indians inhabiting Northern Optiforgia, Oregon and Washington Territories, a great deal of un- easiness is felt, and it is feared from present appearances that they are in the midst of a general war with then Arms and ammunition have been sent to the people o hore Territories. Governor Johnson recommended the cailing into service a company of mounted men, and the Legislature promptly voted the necessary amount to car- ry out the measure. Gen. Wool, who fs now at the seat of war, considered this force unnecessary, however, and stated that he had sufficient United States troops to pro. tect the frontier and subdue the Indiaes. There are ne- verai thousand volunteers in the field, and these, with about two thousand regulars, are considered forse enough to “ conquer a peace.”’ A correspondent at Cleveland is in raptures wih the growth and prosperity of that city, which, to uss hia own words, is “in communication with all the worid and the reat of mankind”—a very desirable condition to be in, certainly. The dry goods Jobbing, it is estimated, amounts to $1,500,000; the boot end shoe business to $1,000,000; the hardware to $1,500,000; the clothing to $600,000; bats, caps, millinery, &c., to $600,000; and arcceries to $2,000,000. Private and public buildings, of the finest description, are being erected, and the city is a'ive with enterprise. Then the authorities are eageged in the construction of water works to supply the ality with an abundance of pure and fresh water from the lake, These worka will cost about $600,000, and will, it is expec‘ed, be completed this year, in time for the State Fair, wh'ch takes plazein September. In the midst of this general prosperity the people are not unmindtul of the in tereata cf education, having erected a fine looking edifice f r the accommodation of the Central High School. The Ohio conal is epen, the water having been let in on the 22d inet, so that the large amount of produce which has been awaiting the opening of navigation will soon find ita way to our Eastern markets. The spring election has re- sulted in the success of the democratic party throughout the State, but nearly all the candidates are opposed to the administration. Serious complaints are made by # correspondent on board the United States steam frigate Savannah, writing from Rio de Janeiro March 15, 1866, in regard to the manner in whish letters and packages intended for per- fons on board that ship reach their destination. “ Yes. tercay,” he rays, “we received a letter bag from the Navy Department via Buenos Ayres, which had been on ite way to this placa since October Jast.”” He advises persors who have friends on board vessels belonging to this squadron to direct their letters to the care of Hugh Jenkins & Co., Baltimore, by whom they will be immedi. ately forwarded. Our correspondent also complains of the action of the late Navy Board, which, it ap- pears, bas, according to his experience, been productive of much trouble. Asan instance of this, he says: “We have at present on the Savannah two captains, one com- mander snd nine lieutenants; on the Germantowa two commanders and seven lieutepants; and on the Bain- bridge one commander and five lieutenants; while there is not a master, passed midshipman or midshipman in the equadrom.”” The Bainbridge sailed on the 13th of March last for an island near Cape Horn, to rescue some shipwrecked persons who are said to be there. The Wa- ter Witch lett Rio de Janeiro on the 25th of February fer the United States, The Germantown is at Montevideo, officers and crew well. In Rio were the following men- of-war:—-Savansah, (American); frigate Madagascar steamer Sharpshooter, brig Spy, (Engliah); frigate Forte, corvettes Thisbe and Austerlitz, (Freneh). Health of Rio good. In reply toa letter published in the Herat of April 6, in which the consular agents of the United States are spoken of as @ cirgrace to our country, Mr. Samuel Bromberg, late United States Consul to Hamburg, writes to us with the view of freeing himself from the general charge. Mr. Bromberg, as @ proof that such a charge cannot be brought against him, sends use printed copy of a letter which was signed by citizens of the Uni- ted States doing business in Hamburg, bearing testi- mony to ‘the efficient, able and prompt manner” in which he performed the duties of his oftice. A Virginia correspondent, writing on the 14th inat., from Farmville, Prinee Edward county, informs us that at a convention of the demecracy of the Fourth electo- ral district of the Btate, held there the day before, Hon. Thos. 8, Becock and FE. W. Hubbard were elected dele- gates te the Clocinmati Convention,—what he regards as a cevere blow to Governor Wise, “laying him out as dead a6 & well salted hearing, so far as the vote of Virginia is concerned.” From Mexieo, April 1, one of our correspondents writes that the President had invested Puebla with 14,010 men, and that on the 234 March the prowunciados capitulated; 5,000 mon bad been slsin. Gen. Robles Pesuels, the Mexicam Minister at Washington, left on the ‘ast ateamer, The Provident haa redyged the 600 oficera, of different grades, from Generals to Second Lieutenants, to the ranks, and sent them to the South, turming them Over to the tender mercies of the Piztos. From Baltimore, April 23, we learn that the West- erm Congressional districta of the State selected, the ¢ay previous, Hen. John Thomrsem Masom (Judge of the Court of Appeals), and Hon. B. Louis Lowe, (om- Governor), delegates to the Cinctanat! Convention. They are uninstructed; but it is understeod that they are faverable to the nomination of Buchanaz. ‘The petition of the New York Irish Aid Society, which we are informed has been presented im the Board of Councilmen, ia particularly deserving the eonsideration of the Common Council. ‘The object of this association is the transportation to the Western States of the laboring classes of Irish emigrants, who on their arrival at our seaport cities find themselves without money, employ- ment, or friends, In proportion to the extent of its means-the society has done s great dea) of good, and is reelly deserving of the assistance for which it has pe- titioned’the Common Council. “As a fact of general inverest,”’ says a correspondent, ‘“‘cerving to throw some light om the subject, we were told yesterday by a reepectabie resident of this city, who formerly teaided on the east side of Long Island, that, several yours ago, while fishing at night for shell fish, in New Inlet, he discovered the body of a man who had been drowned in the East river’’—proving that be had been carried by g current out to sea, and cast th This is some fifteen miles to the eastward of Rockaway, and considerably beyond the place where the body of young Pierce was found; so that hereafter, when persons are drowned in’ the Fast river, their bodies, if long misang, should besearched for along the east shore of Long Island. Persons who were familiar with the condition of the Faat river, opposite the city, between Twenty-second and Twenty-ninth streets, on the night of the 3lst of January Jest, says that the water was frozen hard enough at that time to beara team and wagon for forty or fifty yards from shore, and that, had young Pierce acciten. tally fallen off the dock, or jumped off, he wou'd havo been discovered ; I adhere to a formor opinion expressea in the Hemarp, that he was fou ly dealt with, and s’ain by mistake, for some other person, perhaps aided by chloroform, and sunk beneath the ice. His preservation tor eo long a period in the water, with such slight altera- tions in his perscn or clothing, proves conclusively that this could only have bappened by remaining in contact with ice,’” Dateat Indtan News.

THE OLD LINE WHIGS OF i0WA. The od Jine whigy of Iowa he'd a Convention at Bur- jingtcn on the 12th {ost. We learn from the Burlington Gazette that General Wr. Duane Wilson, of Fairfield, pre- siced, and cpened the meeting with a short speech. On totion of Mr. Starr, one of the most distinguished law- yers of Iowa, who hag never been contaminated by an lem, resolutions were adopted defining the position of the old line whigs on all the topics ot the cay. The resolu. tions denounce nigger worshipping abolitioniam in thi most emphatic manner, and, regarding themselves as temporarily ‘under the weather,”’ they counsel the whigs to “bide their time,”’ to have notning to do with the nigger woashipping movement. ‘The Florida democratic State Convention met at Madi- son on the 16th inst., and made the following nomina- tions:—For Governor—Hon.

Tux Pracu Crop.—Our readers will be gratified to learn What we bave a prospect of a fair crop of this de- Neious frait—the peach—the coming season, The follow- ing communication, written by an old and experienced pomologiat, will be perused with pleagure, and may be relied upon:—Notwithi the long continued cold weather of the past winter, in consequence of which so were made that the destruction of the is in this region would be complete, the pros- peots of a fine pee of peaches in this vicicity are now enerally gocd and eneouraging. It ia now a well estab- ished fact that the peach buds cannot endure a greater degree of cold than twelve or fifteen below zero of Fahr. In apy places of Obio, Indians, Michigan, Iinols, &s., where mercury fell totwenty degrees or more below ero, the buds of the peach tree are mostly killed; while on Cayuge Island and at Peach Haven, on Grand Island, where the fuld sunk’ to bat sleven degrees below zero on the coldest days, perhaps but from one-third to one-half of the buds were destroyed, leaving qui'e enough for a bountifal erop. On’ the 6th of February, 1856, the mereury sunk to17 below zero, ‘and the whole crop was lost. The destruction of and other trees during the past winter by field mice, however, has been very great. In December and Janu- ary last the snow earce suddenly and fell light to a great depth, and for three months there was n0 thaw to settle it, eo that the mice, hindered by no obstruction, made their roads in all directions. the ravages of these ver- min one man on Gi nd, lost his whole orchard 01 400 trees, and another of 200. Mr. B. Hodge, of this city, who has s large fruit farm at Peach Haven, is per- the greatest sufferer from this source, as his lors is at 000. It is noticable, that on these grounds to have shown a decided preference for the and spple, as his extensive pear or- uninjured. The destructive bark of the chards adjoining are almost erergies of the field mouse seem not to have been con- fined to any one eri nete read that im Monroe coun- ty alone the loss to it growers from this source will reach $100,000, while good authorities state that there can be little doubt that this loss in the whole State will bret to more than $1,000,000.—Sugalo Advertiser, ipril 24, The Turf.

Sic Taanart Guoma Sumpat.—The down town ehurches axe fast disappearing or transforming into buildings for the use of merchants and others. It is wonderful to ob- serve the rapid strides which mereantile occupation is taking. A plain tablet om the facade bears the simple inscription, ‘A Presbyterian ehurch, erected im the year of our Lord 1767." The Brick Churok, (so ealled) for half s century oecupied by the venerable Rev. Dr. Gardl- ner Spring and his people, furnishes the most notable of these changes. It is to be sold at public auction, together with the property adjoining and belonging to it, bounded by Beekman street, Park place, ity Hall square and Neseau street,on the 14th of May next; no bid to be Jower than $225,000. This property is upon the lot 0 Jong wanted for the Post office. 1t waa donated originally } to the church by the eity and corporation, and it was for this reason that the right of its trusteen to soll {t was 40 long disputed; but our present municipai government have compromised the matter, and the property is now likely to be more available for commercial in that once aristocratic neighborhood) it hag ‘bee for religious purposes for ten Yours psat. Still, we hope that the ministrations of the old church may not entirely abandon this godless ne'ghborhood; for hore and there, in cellars and garrets, there remains « pretty considerable sprinkling ef Irish, French, Spanish, Italian aud Dutch tenants, shoeless, perhaps, but with souls to be saved. The Brick Church society is rich aa Croesus; but we trust it has more bowels than that an- cient millicnaire, By the way, en passan(, we learn that the seciety bas not yet fixed upon a location up town. If the trusices will allow us, we would suggest that they thould purchase area enovgh to run no risk of baving their houre surrounded and elbowed, cheek by jowl, ia tke course of a few years, by porter houses and Dutch Groceries. A little leas expense upon an edifice than is urual upon modern city churches, and a little more libe- ral out ay for land, would be the weer course.

Gas Exrtosion.—About six o’clock last night, an ex plosicn of gea took place on the fourth floor of the large new buildirg cn the corner of Canal amd Thompson atreets, ocoupied by the People’s Bank.

The present has been an extraordipary year. The peo. are threatened with famine, the country ia dried ap. best springs have failed to yield their refreshing g to cheer us with the pros, may fill our water courses and cool the earth. The crops are better in some Parte of the pation than they were last year, but some of ths farme will not yield the seed that was planted. You will find herewith the reports of Mr. Robinson an@ Mr, Carz, te the correc ‘ness of which I can bear teatimo- by. Tne schools generally are doing very well. 1 have calied upon the superintendent of the Wa ep eb-unk-eh Academy for a report for this year, in accordance wita special instructions from the superintendent, but I do not suppose that he will make one, as it isa school, and the former superintendent (Balantine) {m bis public discourse at the examiuation, tast ne not interd to report to avy government save the Presby- terian Board of Missions. It the Department at Wash- ington would refuse to pay this Presbyterian Board the money for which their services are rendered to the heathen until they comply with the regulations, which require a)l rohoola, or rather heads of soheols, t? report to the agent, there would be none of this foolery on “ha part of the Presbyterian schoolmasters, But #0 long ae ey get the money they don't care for anyt! 8 e teachers at this achool are very good end made qui:e an interesting display at their exhibition, at which I wan present. ‘A great source cf anmoyance to an sgant is the want of proper ba on the part of the military within the gency. Several rascals have gone unwbipped of justice for the wantof an efficient forse to carry out the require- ments of the Jaw.

The grand national jubilee of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, having for its object the celebration of the thirty-seventh anniversary of the introduction of Odd Fellowship, came off here to-day with immense édas, Representatives of nearly all the lodges of the principal cities in the Union were present, and, although the pro- costion was not se large as that of the national celebra- ticn on the 22d of Inst February, from the elaborate street decorations, triumphal etches, innumerable high- ly ornamented cars filled with beautifal and gally dressed women and ebildren, together with the gorgeous trap- pings and emblems of the Order, it was, beycnd doubt, the most magnificent pageant ever witnessed here. It was two and a balf miles long, and drew to the city twenty-five thousand strangers. Cincinnati is becoming famous as the theatre of national celebrations.
