Progress OF Republicanism on the Continent
The Revolution In California.
We received day or two ago, and publish on our
first page this morning, series OF exceedingly IN
teresting sketches Of the political and social history
Of California for year past, up to last January.
This correspondence came to us by the way OF
New Orleans, having been transmitted thence across
Mexico, and comes from a source perfectly anthem
tic Later news was received some days previous
" giving account of the successful termination
Of the revolution in California, which is only des-
crbed us in its commencement by our correspondent
This subject acquires great interest from the ge
neral belief that as soon the annexation OF Texas
has been effected in spite of the opposition OF Mexi-
CO. France and England, movement Will be made
in the South and West, for the purpose OF uniting
California in a similar manner, to this coniederacy.
The revolution in California although the first IN
series of events which will lead results of great
interest and magnitude, was small, and IN some
respects a ludicrous affair when contrasted with
the mighty revolutionary movements which have
shaken Kingdoms TO their centre. On the Goth and
Dist OF February last, the decisive and desperate
conflict between the Californlans and the Mexcans
took place Two hundred and fifty cannon balls
were fired, but the entire slain and wounded
amounted to six horses. The result was, how
ever, sufficiently decisive. The governor-gc
neral becoming quite disheartened by the desertion
of forty fifty foreigners, and the remainder OF his
army refusing TO fight against their countrymen,
he surrendered at discretion to the insurgents y
and California, from Bodega to San Diego, Is now
under its own rule The people arc determined to
govern themselves, acknowledging the laws OF
Mexico when it pleascs them. In the meantime
the numerous bands Of emigrants to Oregon are dl-
verging towards California, and strong and inilu
entail American population will very soon be col
lected in the neighborhood of ST. Francisco, 0
the finest harbors of the world. Monterey, where
our correspondence is dated is not far distant from
St Francisco We have been furnished with the
following list of arrivals at this port and as II IS o
no little value in enabling to estimate the presen
condition and prospects of that place. we anne'

All intelligence from California and Oregon wi
now be of great interest The progress, movement
and success of the emigrants will be anxiously oh
served Fears have been entertained in some quar-
tiers that California will be again reduced under tn
sway Of Mexico, but we think there is little groun
for these apprehensions. The accessions of strength
which the people will receivefrom our emigrants
viii enable them to maintain their independence
Besides, according to the last accounts, they are il
the midst of new counter-revouton in Mexico
in favor of Santa Anna, and no one can tell wha
will become of that distracted country itself. Thu
whole population nhabiting the territories between
the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, are delibcratn!
whether it would not be better for them to unit
with the United States, and so to themselve
peace, comfort and prosperity. Will that be ano
ther question for European interference?
REMOVALS AND APPoINTMENTs.-We perceive
statement in the Washington Union, attributed L
the Nec York Herald, that private letter men
toned the fact of thirty-seven removals in two day
at Washington, and which the Union contradcts a
gross exaggeration. On inspecting the files OF tn
Herald we cannot discover that any such statemen
was made in its columns, and very much in
clined to believe that the Union has been impose
upon by fictitious paragraph in other quarter
We gave list of removals in the city OF Washing
ton since the accession of Mr.. Polk, which con
pnsed, we believe, between thirty and forty case
That is all that we published in the way of misstat
ment, if there be any. Wegave this list of remova
with the view of showing and recording our dsa
probation of the principle prescription for opinion
sake, which appears to!.have been adopted by tn
present administration, and is Just obnoxious

the wing party. 1t is miserable piece of business
ths prescription for the sake of opinion, whethe
perpetrated by wings or democrats We know n
distinction between parties on this score.
