dance Of gold, and the facility with which
il is accumulated, have very naturally pro-
duced the effect Of raising the price Of la
Dor immensely. So strong is the attrac-
ton towards the mines, that there are at
San Francisco upwards Of fifty vessels, Of
different nations, deserted by their crews.
Although 800 per month is freely Offer
ed for seamen, none can be engaged even
at that high rate. The U. S. sloop-of
war Warren arrived on the 3Oth of April,
and within twenty -four hours fifteen men
deserted and took their way to the mines.
II is almost impossible to retain men on
board the Government ships.
The California, through the untiring ex-
ertion Of Capt. Forbes, succeeded in leav-
ing San Francisco on the lst of Nav.
From the 26.h March up to the day of
sailing, Capt. F. was constantly engaged
in endeavoring to procure crew, his for
mer one having deserted immediately on
the arrival Of the vessel. In order to OBJ
tain men he had to pay whatever wages
were demanded. This the Company has
decided to do in all cases where it is found
necessary, as it is determined to keep that
vessel running regularly.
San Francisco is crowded with the i'm
migrants, such vast numbers of whom are
continually pouring into he place. Ac-
! Communications of any kind are scarcely 10
be obtained. The meanest hut or shed
such as here would be considered unin-
habitablc, commands enormous rent. Good
provisions are almost equally scarce. The
coarsest kind of food must be used, as no
other can be procured. No person stays
any longer in San Francisco than he can
help; but all who are lucky enough to
procure transportation, Immediately take
their departure for the mining district.
When they arrive there they find no diff
Guilty in accommodating almost any amount
Of the precious metal. Three 10 four
on. rces Of gold is considered common
dav,s work. Less than that induces the
digger IT, move to richer spot. Much
more !. occ, ,sionally gained in a few hours,
as the possess ors Of large Jumps may attest.
There was a great deal Of conversation
in Californiavresp> Getting the establishment
of a Provisional Go vernment, but as yet
nothing had been done. The people were
anxiously awaiting news of the action Of
Congress loon the subject not having
heard of the failure of that body to act
upon the subject. In she event IT nothing
being done by Coz. ,ress, il was generally
understood that when the members should
return in the fall, State Government wohld
be established.
Capt. Forbes states that tr. ,velling over
the ls:hmus is now co,nparati> easy.

HAVANA.

We make the following extracts from the
Neio fork Courier des Etuts Unis, Of the cause
of difficulty between the French Consul
General, and the Captain General of Cuba.
Two international questions, complicated by
certain discrepancies in forms, have provoked
this difficulty. The French Consul General
considering his dignity compromised has de-
manded his pass ports, and goes to France to
submit the matter to his government
There exists at Cuba law, which compels
ali foreigners to become naturalized after a
residence there of five years. The Captain
Gerenal wished to enforce this fully and en-
tirely. Mr. David Consul General of the
French Republic, interfered upon request of
his countrymen and opposed this forced nat,i-
ralization--hc also claimed the right to super.
intend the settlement Of French successiops;
he carried into the affair the aeal which ani-
mates him in the accomplishment of all his
duties 3s
a tri5ing circumstance pcrplexed his good
intentions, mistake occurred IN the Rxeoua.
tor sent Mr.. David by the Spanish Governments
being designated in it not IA Consul General
but simply as Consul Tho Captain General

followed him, and concluded by submit
ting Resolutions, which were referred.
Mr. Martin stated to the meeting that
when called upon this morning to act as
Secretary he had not declined, because
some of his friends desired him not to do
SO, in the expectation that the delibera-
tions of the meeting might be concluded
to-day. 1t was evident now, However,
that this could not be the case; and he
was called upon by imperative engage
ments to ask the meeting to excuse him
from further service. Mr.. Martin said
that he regretted the necessity of making
therequest. That at all times, and under
all circumstances, he was willing to work
in any harness in this cause. Still more
did he regret to be obliged to leave en-
assembly, in which it was ev''ont, from
tokens exhibited to-day, that tnerc ex-
lists so determined and resolutc spirit
of resistance to aggression and injury
Mr.. Martin, however felt obliged to leave,
and moved that Mr.. VIM NJ. Hutson,
from Orange, be substituted in his place;
and the same was ordered.
On motion Of Mr., Moses, it was
Ordered, That when the meeting ad-
joum, it stand adjourned to meet to-mor-
row at 10 o'clock. And the meeting
then adjourned,

mend to the several districts and parish
es, as an essential measure, to preserve
and perfect their organization of Commit
tees of Vigilance and Safety, for the pur-
pose of correspondence and concert of
action, and especially exert themselves
to spread useful information before the
people, and to detect and bring to Justice
all offenders against our peace and insti-
tutions
On motion of Mr.; McCord the Chair

THE NEW YORK RIOT.

We publish to-day summary of the par
ticulars of this disgraceful affair We rejoice
to know, that nothing of tho kind has ever ta-
ken place at the South. 1t is at least strange
that an intelligent community would suffer
themselves to be carried off by the petty joa!-
ousies of two rival actors, either in an attempt
to uphold the one, or debase the other. Our
latest advices state that the excitement has
nearly subsidized. The militia have been dis
missed, the police being considered sufficient
to protect tine theatre That most OF the kill
ed had been buried without any ceremony;
and that the verdict of tho jury of Inquest is
well received.
