CALIFORNIA NEWS.

San Diego, May i, 1851, says:
The arrival of the "Joscphene," with
Quartermaster General Morehead and
his party, has created quite q sensation
about town. First, the town was TO be
sacked, by way Of making out an out-
fit for the expedition TO Lower Cali
fornia. This, il is thought, by those
most frightened, was abandoned in
consequence Of the great poverty Of
the place, but such thing could hardly
have been contemplated, though the
Mayor kept out vigiIant guard all
night.
Second. the news brought by the
steamer of LIST, that the Governors
Proclamation was out for the arrest of
the General. and a general falling out
among themselves. Nothing official
could be found for his arrest, or it GER
tainly would have been done. On the
9th, many of them visited the city, and
after getting well up in spirits, quar-
reling in general commenced, and re-
suited in fight among the mos, urPo--
i. e., fsticuf, which resulted in black
eyes and bunged noses only. The
Governor of California is and has been
in the city for some days. AT first, he
felt many apprehensions for the safety
Of his country, and was considerably
troubled with fear; but finding out the
character Of the country, could only
think. 1.-THE country is safe" Don Man
ucl Castro, the Governor, is an intel
ligent man and nice gentleman; he is
well known here and highly respected.
II would be useless to comment on the
object or probable result of their ex
petition.
Their avowed determination 10 con.
quer Lower California, or perish in the
glorious effort; are now without means;
very scant of provisions, and said 10
be in great want of dinero. 1t is sup
posed that a Mr.. White, now in Pana-
ma, is at their head, and TO be the Ma
poleon of the grand operation. Capt.
Macy commands the Josephene, and
has been trying to leave since the 9th
inst, but in consequence of some
trouble with civil officers in settling
their accounts for food, water, beef,
&c, did not get off until the night of
the slh. She sailed for Mazatlan, and
on the 9th schooner touched in, and
left Immediately for some port, repor-
ted TO be in hot pursuit Of Quarter
Master General Morehead.
The same paper says;
In Los Angeles party Of about 80,
already organized, are preparing to
start by land in few days into Sonora
The report they make of themselves
is, tina, they are going to Sonora to
take advantage of the offer recently
made by the Governor OF that State
granting large amount of land TO SET
tiers within the territory; although il is
perfectly understood, from the prepar-
atoms of the party, that they intend
making forcible seizure of Sonora.
