MR.. MACREADY ATBOSTON.


We learn ofthe arrival Of Mr.. Macrea-
dy at Boston. He was stopping at the Ire
mont House, but had not been seen since
his arrival. The New York Herald gives
the following account Of his escape from
the theatre and departure from that city !:
Mr. Macready escaped from the theatre
with great difficulty. He disguised HIM
self and passed through the crowd unno-
ticed. He left the New York Hotel, and
departed from the city at three o'cloc TX on
Friday morning, accompanied by several
of his friends. He expressed his deter
mlnatlon to return no more forever. His
baggage was taken away yesterday NOR
ming, at five o'clock, in charge of friend
After the firing Of the first round from
the military, Il friend of Mr. Macready
told him that there had been bloodshed,
which seemed to affect him very much.
He threw up his hands and exclaimed,
"My God, has my appearance led 10 the
sacrifice Of human life! wish l had ad-
hered to my first resolution, and no, yel-
ded to the solicitations Of my friends
They assured me there would be no diff
Guilty" He then retired to his dressing,
:oom, and prepared to leave the theatre.
After having got safely to the New York
Hotel, it was deemed prudent by himself
and friends that he should leave the CITY
as soon as possible, lest an attack should
be made upon that house.

CALIFORNIA ITEMS

Ell Saonitor Of the 24th ult. says. it had
received files of the Alto California to March
i'3th' According to them, several meetings
had been held, by which it was determined
to form Legislative assembly of fifteen mem.
bers. for the formation of laws to preserve
order in the district of San Francisco. It
was proposed, also, to elect three Judges for
for the administration of justice.
The last winter, as we before heard, was
remarkably severe, as we'll in Calf;,rnia as
IN Oregon. 1t was said that in the latter
territory an extensive placer has been dis
covered, on the banks of Power and Blunt
rivers; men went to explore, but found moth
ing Durlns the middle of January the pIa-
GERS were covered with snow, bat in spite
OF this, many persons continued to work in
them 1t was understood, however, that
operations would be entirely suspended as
soon as the rivers should begin to rise.
Several meetings had been held in Cali
tornia, protesting against he introduction
of slavery.

prominent wings to destroy the influence of
Warren Mt Washington. and if possible, to
drive him from his place, although known
to be true by nearly every man. woman and
child. OF our city is denied by the Hawkcyss..
Now the editor knows perfectly well that a II
we have said on this subject is true, and he
makes himself ridiculous in the estimation
Of even his friends by denying it. As we said
before, the "fare up is no secret; it has
been the town talk for tho last two weeks:
and many 60 so far as to avow desire that
It should be made public. An intelligent,
Influential and orthodox wing, declared to
us few days since that there were not t,oen-
ty wings in nes Moines county who approved
Of Warren's appointment, and prepare
TO uphold him. The Hawkcye's feeble at.
tempt to smother this feeling will not avail
it is deep and all-pervading, and will con.
tinue to make itself manifest. -13 a@.,s

murder-yes, murder By soholesalc, as ever dis.
graccd the annals Of our country.
You must look to the New York papers for
the particulars of this outrage. And let me
call your attention to the Mayor Of the City, on
the inquest, where you will discover the timid,
time serving testimony of a man, who sided
with the upper ten" for a season; but now,
seeing the havoc of dcsolation around him, is
Sinking in his shoes for his former acts. Also,
look we'll to the testimony ofGen Sanford;-
it proves conclusvely that the people were de.
ceived and betrayed by the ambuscade, into
the power of the military No working man,
or mechanic, Of any description, should be a
military man in New York, from this time
forth and forever, unless in defence Of their
country. 1t is time for them to cease to be
soldier, when, to murder their own fellow-citi.
zens, they can be secretly called in requisition.
With the exception Of the ..True SUM- and
BenPett's Herald, I should Judge the entire
tress IN the city justify these murders But,
SIT, reaction will take place. and an account
then woe betide the ''getters up" of this muir.
derous doing But. with the reaction, we folks
IN the west have no part.. We only desire that
the guilty may be punished; and should it, in
the further progress Of this affair, be proven,
as 1t has been insinuatcd, that it is political in
its inception, could wish, and SO viii the ad-
mirers of Mr.. Macready, in the end wish, that

whether British Wings, or Mexican laid and

thus much he will say. if General Putnam was
alive, and sat on any Of their trials as Judge,
ne would hang them as murderers, nc. matter
to which class they belong, if he found them
engaged IN murder as accessory before the
