Gold In California.

We stated in yesterdays paper that Lieutenant Loeser
had moi arrived with the specimens OF gold which had
been forwarded TO the Secretary of War by Col Mason,
the commanding officer in California
Understanding last evening that the Lieutenant had
arrived in this city and had deposited in the War Office
the precious specimens he had brought with him, we
called TO them, and TO free mind of all hesitation
as to the genuineness OF the metal. We had seen
doubts expressed in some of our exchange papers
and we readily admit that the accounts so nearly
approached the miraculous, that we were relieved
BY the evidence of our on the sub
ject. The specimens have all the appearance OF
the native gold we had seen from the mines OF North
Carolina and Virginia, and we informed that the
Secretary would send the small chest called caddy
tanning about $4,000 worth of gold in Jumps and scales,
to the mint be melted into coin and bars, and most Of
il TO be subsequently, fashioned into medals,
raive of the herosm and vaor of officers Several
of the other specimens he will retain for the present in
the War Office as found in California, in the form of
humps scales, and sand the last named being of DIFF
erent hue from the bright yellow to black without much
appearance Of gold.
However skeptca any man may have been, we defy him
to doubt that if the quantity of such specimens as these
be great has been represented the value of the gold

We have seen it stated, in letters and in the newspa
pers, that what found in California and brought to
the United States mica; but it seems to mposs-
BILE, from the appearance and density and weight of the
metal which last night in The War Office, that
there can be any deuson mistake. The specimens
have come TO Washington they extracted from

brought by Lieut.. Loeser weighs little more than two

GEN CAss IN THE WEsT.-It is worthy of remark and
of remembrance, that the whole great free, growing
West gave its united electoral vote for Gen. Cass. This
is worthy of notice in that point of view The
thing has occurred before; IN no other pres
dental election have all the free States OF the West gone
together The fact that they have all gwen their votes
for Gen Cass, shows the estimation IN which he is held
among the people and in the section where he has
spent the most of his life-wbere he has toied and
labored and fought for the prosperity and glory and
rights of the people This is worthy OF remark also,
because these great and growing States the whole
Of the territory which rescued from tie bllghng
of slavery by the famous ordinance OF 1887 The
intelligent and generous inhabitants of that territory
know well that that was the foundation of
the unexampled growth and prosperity of their States
that without it they would not have presented the
noble spectacle which they now exhibit. Aware of
this it is but natural that they should rally to the
support OF man under whom slavery could never be
permitted to polu inch of territory now unconam-
mated by It's fatal presence In supporting General Cas-
they knew they were supporting such mana man
whose whole lie and conduct, whose BIRTH education,
promising foe of extension of slavery and the devoted
champion of liberty and human rights Their support of
such man, their situation and circumstances reflects
no less honor upon themselves than upon him The
presidency would have compensated him for the
loss of their support bu, their devoted adherence TO him
will console him for all the disappointment which the
result OF the election may have occasoned him All honor
them say, to the great, growing, gallant, faithful,
generous, and patriotic West
