THE RIor AT SACRAMENTO CITY.-From pas
senger by the Chagres steamer Philadelphia, we
learn that the statements published in the San
Francisco papers, relative TO the squatter disturb
nnces at Sacramento, are true, excepting only the
actual death of Mayor Bigelow. Though MORALLY
wounded, no information of his dccease bad been
received at the departure of the steamers from San
Francisco. But the intelligence published in the
Panama Star, said 10 have been received by express
at the office of the Pacific Netps Just previous 10 the
sailing of the steamers 70 the effect that Sacramen
20 city had been burned by the squaters, is dis
credited This news is said to have come overland
from Sacramento to Benicia-a distance of more
than sixty miles-oyer n mere trail, difficult Of
passage, and thence by small steamer TO San
Francisco. The conhagration must have occurred,
if at all, on the evening OF August l4th, the
steamer Senator left Sacramento at p. m. Of that
day, at which time the riotous squatters had been
driven into the outskirts of the city. Our inform
ant, who is well acquainted with the country,
doubts the possibility of transmitting intelligence
by the indicated in the time that interviewed
between the alleged event and the departure of the
Panama steamers Such was the opinion gene
rally Of the numerous persons from Sacramento
who came down in those steamers.
There was no steamer left at Sacramento when
the Senator left. IL is believed that the rumor Of
the burning originated from the report of n sailing
vessel, arrived subsequently to the Senator, and
which that steamer passed on her way down, that
n bright light had been seen TO the northward the
night previous, indicating wide spread and long
continued conhagration. Bot it is known that
fires were raging in the prairics in that direction.
and this would sufficiently account for the pho
nomenon.
A fire at Sacramento city, it is believed, would
be much Ices likely 10 spread than at San Francis
CO, for the reason not only that the streets are
wide, but that there prevailing strong winds
as at the last named place
The impression said to be entertained TO con-
siderable extent at San Francisco, and by those Of
the passengers interested in affairs at Sacramento,
is, that the movement Of the squaters had been eff
fectually suppressed, that the leaders Of the out
break would be severely punished, and complete
breaking up and extinction Of the defeated combi-
nation is predicted the inevitable result Hence
the precpitancy Of their opponents is expected to
enure greatly 70 tho advantage OF the Suffer claim
