FROM CALIFORNIA.

The steamer Philadelphia arrived at New York
yesterday, from Chagres, with about million dol
in gold and one hundred passengers. The dates
from San Francisco are to the 18th August.
The most prominent item of news transmitted
by Telegraph is the recent occurrence at Sacrs-
mento city Of dreadful riot, growing out Of the
land troubles, in the course Of which Mayor BIGR-
Low was badly wounded, and the City Assessor
and many others killed. The riot appears to have
been set on foot by the "squa!ters," about sixty
Of whom proceeded to the prison.ship to release
some Of their companions, when the interposition
Of the city authorities caused the conflict. Before
the riot quelled, the squatters had been REIN
forced to the number Of 800, the Lieutenant Gov
ernor had declared martial law, and steamers had
been dispatched to San Francisco for troops and
other assistance.
The reports from the mining districts continue
favorable, and all kinds Of goods were bringing pro-
fitable prices. AT San Francisco mess pork is
quoted at els to S24, -four $ll to $l2, rice 8 10
10 cents, coffee 80 to As cents, &c.

SATURDAY, SEP TENDER 81, 1850.
THE LAST DAYS OF THE SESSION.

Seven working days only remain of the present
Session of Congress, within which time large
amount Of work may be done, if the Members of
the two Houses will but hold on to the end. The
Session has, it is true, been most laborious one
and very natural it is that Members should desire
to escape from the heated atmosphere Of the Legis-
latve Halls to the purer air of the homesteads from
which they have been so long separated. But. on
the other hand, much of the most important bust
ness of the Session is still on hand-business in
volving, some Of it. the highest interests of their
constituents and of many of the States which they
represent. So that no Member should abandon his
station in either House before the last moment
of the Session, under any prompting much short Of
that instinct which makes sefpreservation the first
law of nature.
Not to speak of the general annual Appropriation
bills, the passage of which is necessary not merely
to relieve all departments of the Government from
existing embarrassment, but to keep the Govern
ment itself in motion, there are measures unGnish.
ed in which the People are in reality much in.
terested as they are in those necessary appropria
tons. Congress cannot adjourn, it seems to us
without passing, for example, the Harbor and Rire,
Improvement Bill, SO interesting to one-haf Of the
population Of the Union, and SO long deferred nor
we trust, will it adjourn without adopting some
measure Of relief to nearly the whole of the other
half Of it, suffering, it does, by the prostration Of
important manufacturing establishments, and by the
consequent depression of the home prices Of the
agricultural products of the districts around them.

The SECRETARY OF STATE paid yesterday to
AMIN BEY the compliment Of calling on him at
his lodgings; after which he took him in his car
riage to the Capitol, and introduced him to many
members Of both Houses of Congress. The Envoy
appeared much grati6ed by this courtesy, and spent
some time in each House.
This visiter of the far East to the remote West is
the first subject of the Sublime Porte who has ever
come to the shores of America in the service of his
Government; and although he comes as simple
agentto view country its internal condition, pow
e, pursuits, productions, institutions &C., and is in
vested we believe, with no diplomatic functions, his
visit may lead to diplomatic relations between the
two Governments, and eventually to mutually adj
vantageous commercial intercourse between the two
countries.
The Senate has inserted in the Civil and Diplo-
matte Appropriation bill an appropriation of ten
thousand dollars to defray the personal expenses Of
the Envoy during his residence and travels in the
United States-a mark Of respect towards the
Sovereign of Turkey, and to the motives which
prompted this mission.
