~ Northern Senator must vote for it, and it is like

That was confined to one simple and practicable OBJ

the general subject will not only have proved fruit

The increased intercourse between To

Office for the last month. *&t5

and sent from the post office in that city
for the first twenty -nine days in May,

three hundred and fifty. Forty ore ihoI-

Loco Candidate-Hew IL was dene.

HEMPsTEAD may thank the popularity Of s'De-
fusion smith, the lost Tyler man" for his nomina-
tion. 1t seems that after the ten or fifteen
ballotings" wherein I'D. Johnston, Fales and Van
Antwerp were severally Withdrawn, and DR.. Lowe
appeared a. the principal Old bunker candidate,
the large number Of votes obtained BY Exclusion"
indicated that he might secure . majority At the
very next ballotins. This sent CONSERVATION into
the ranks Of the Old Hunkers, and to prevent such
as'deplorable" catastrophe, Semple. the renegade
whie, jumped up and declared himself not only au-
thorized to withdraw the name OF DR.. Lowe, but to
reques, all his friends to 60 for Hampstead at the
next ballot. This settled the matter, and Hemp.
stead was nominated. The South was thus deprived
of sharing in the bargain solemnly made at Daven-
port, and the important city Of Dubuque-the bi,th
place of big men in the loco foco ranks-is now
favored with candidates for Governor and Con-
gresham.

The charter election in San Francisco took place
on the soth OF April. and was hotly contested
John W. Geary was elected Mayor and -Tiford,
Recorder. These gentlemen were the regular NOM
inees Of the democratic party. Ceary's majority
over Brenham tWhigl was 24s. Tfiford's majority
over Marshall Whigl was 800. The votes for 9TH
er officers had not been counted, but it was expect

The citizens Of Sacramento City were about to

A steamboat was launched at San Francisco on
The 3oth of April from the ship yard Of Walters l.
Macarnan. She was called the Maunsel White, in
Commitment TO we'll known and old established
merchant in our ely who has extensive business
relations with California.
We learn from the Alta California that bin was
filed on the 18th of April, the equity side Of the
u s. District Court, in the name of the several III
dNIduals against the AyuniamIeEtc, Common
Council OF San Francisco expressly denying the
corporate functions of that body. An Injunction
was granted, staying the sale Of city lots and
joining the city authorities not to pay any Of the
city debts. Able counsel engaged on both
sides, and after two days argument. Judge Parsons
dissolved the Injunction, except so far as TO re-
strain the sale OF city lots. The Alta California,
referring to the droision Of Judge Parsons says:
The legal effect Of the decision is 10 admit the
right Of private indvidu s.Iiable to taxation,
upon such allegat ions, TO suspend the functions of
the city government at any time, and without pre-
sious notice; while at the time, il admits the
legal existence Of the City Council and authorizes
them TO proceed with the Of the CITY
government. The City Council has authorized an
appeal from the decision of Judge Parsons to be
taken TO the Supreme Court.
