LATE FROM CALIFORNIA.

The Missouri Republican contains some late and
interesting news from California, received through
Messrs. SHAW and BoLDER, direct from Oregon.
They left the frontier settlement of that country on
the 9th of May, and arrived at st. Joseph on the
9th July, having made the trip in eighty-three
days. The company to which they were attached
was composed of nineteen persons, who met with
little difficulty on the route.
These gentlemen state that the emgrants to Ca
lltornla and Oregon were making very handsome
progress, being twenty five days ahead Of the time
ally occupied by the emgrants One company was met at
Big Sandy and two at Green River. The Mormons with
six hundred and sevenysx wagons met at the forks Of
the Platte on their route to California The Tceics APOSTLES
they called, Fort Bidger, and under
stood that the Monons would proceed this further
than the neghborhood of the Salt Lake. All the emgants
were getting along very well.
At Fort Hall these gentlemen met with Mr.. SAMUEL
BRASSAs and four Others who had arrived there for the pur-
From Mr. Brannan, who is described the editor of the
"Calorna STAR, they obtained information up the 25th

BALTIMORE AND PITTsBURG.

The Baltimore American explains that the law
which has recently been declared I" null and void
by the Secretary Of the Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania, was an act of the Legislature of that
State granting to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company the right to construct their road through
the territory of Pennsylvania TO Pittsburg but
which enactment was so clogged with onerous
restrictions and reservations that it was not accept
ed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company.
Hence the declaration of the Secretary of the Com
monweath was mere matter of form-the time
for the acceptance of the act having expired.
The act thus rejected and annued, however,
should not be COMPOUNDED with another act of the
Legislature Of Pennsylvania, granting charter for
the construction of railroad from Pttsburg to the
town Of Connellsvle. The charter of this compa-
ny is still in full force, and, as the of their road
is directly in the course which it has been con-
tended should be taken by the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad in its extension from Cumberland to the
Ohio river, some Of the citizens Of Baltimore as
well as of Pittsburg hope that the Baltimore and
Ohio Company will yet avail itself Of the route of
tered by the Connellsville charter, by subscribing,
in connexon with the citizens Of Plttsburg, for the
stock necessary to construct that road.
