RESOURCES OF CALIFORNIA. w hen
we look around us and watch the dcveI-
opment of the resources of our country,
and perceive that every day some new
and important discovery is added to tho
last, we are struck with amazement.
The facts elected are pregnant with
prophecy of the future greatness of this
State There cannot be the least doubt
that the day is not far distant when
California will export largely, not only
her minerals, but agricultural and other
commodities The amazing fertility of
the soil, as we'll as the abundance of
her mineral riches, all tend to such
result.
We are led to these remarks by th,
discovery just reported to us, of an ex-
tensive formation Of gypsum or plaster
OF PARIS, in the neighborhood of Santa
Cruz. The article exists in the greatest
abundance, is of very superior quality,
and will undoubtedly prove profitable to
the lucky discoverers.
The limestone in that neighborhood
has already attracted attention, is work.

Francisco market Contractors prefer

Another piece Of good fortune has oc-
Cured to the residents of Santa Cruz,
IN the discovery of marble OF fine quality;
and yet another in deposits of cinnabar.
Assuredly the minerals are moro as
tonlshing than the potatoes of this high
ly favored town, and we should not be
surprised if it yet became an important
port, - Republican.

The Alabama Whig,

Published at Eutaw Ala, and Edited by James
w. Sparrow, Esq, we took occasion not long
since to style one of the rankest Union presses
alias regular out and out submiSsionisl. The
Editor in his issue Of the l4th inst. takes occa-
ton to slender us his sincere Acknowledgements
Of gratitude for the unintentiona compliment thus
paid him." If he is willing to receive our re-
marks, complimentary, Of course we have no
right to object. 1t is free country, and we don't
desire to deprive him of any supposed gratifca-
ton, which our remarks may have afforded. To
our minds, they were anything but compliments
ry. The time has past, for Southern men who
profess such "protound respect for The Union" 10
be regarded as hue friends of Justice and
Equality. You may extract from all the Demo-
cratic Submissionisis in the whole boundless Con-
tinent of America, and that will not relieve you
Brother Sparrow, from the charge of recreant
submissionism. What right have you Brother
Sparrow, to suppose, that the article to which you
have referred, was Ca price Of ours. Were we
not Warren-ted in saying what we did, from The
untimely and illibera abuse, which you were heap
ing upon Southern Rights Associations. Patrick
Henry was charged with treason, when endea-
voring to show the Virginia Assembly The inno-
vations made upon their rights, by the British
Crown. And ,cho dare no,o, we ask? charge him
with being a traitor. Perhaps such man as
Henry Clay, and such strikers as he may have at
his command, might attempt the calumny; they,
have already done worse. Are not your ends all
selfish, the most sordid of all purposes, that of
seleaggrandizement, and political preferment''
Did your great leader Mr.. Clay-ever aspire to
be President of these United States. We prom
Use you at least for the present, to stop this
Sparroo-ing busness-as there is larger game
ahead-and don't attribute this to caprice OF
ours.

ARREST OF ANOTHER FUGITIVE
sLAVE-RIOT AND RESCUE OF
THE FUGITIVE.

Bosroy, Feb. Is, ls5l.-Deputy Marshal
Riley, and assistants arrested at Corn I'M Coi'
fee House, to-day, one Frederick Wilkins a
negro waiter, on warrant issued by the U. 3.
Commissioner, G. II. Curtis, on a complaint
that said Wilkins is fugitive slave. Tie was
taken with no opposition, aid carried lmmedl-
ately to the United States Court room.
The news of the arrest spread rapidly; and
the Court room was speedily filled by n large
crowd of rather excited spectators The ex-
animation, however, went Of quietly, Seth j..
Thomas appeared for the claimant, and Messrs.
Small, Elias Grey, Corng, and others for the
defence.
From the documents offered by the claim.
ant, It appeared that the accused was the pro.
perty of John Debree, Purser i'll the U. 5. Ma
w. of Virginia, and that he escaped in May,
1850. The deposition was to the effect, that
the claimant had seen the prisoner in Boston,;
and eouversed with him, when the prisoner
acknowledged that he had escaped from Nor
folk. The counsel for the defence asked for
a postponement in order to prepare testimony.
This was granted, and Tuesday next, at lO a.
IN. was assigned for the examination.
The Deputy Marshall then ordered the room
to bescleared of spectators, which was gradual
ly done. The prisoner remained in the custo-
DIV of dozen men, as, by law OF the State,
the iail cannot be used to imprison fugitive
slaves. >.
His counsel wishing to consult with him,
they were readily admitted to the room, TO the
number of half dozen. They remained
about an hour, and in the meantime large
crowd of negroes gathered upon the outside
blocking up the entrance to the court room;
and as the door was opened to let the last law
yer leave the room, the mob from without sud-
denly rushed in, seized and knocked down the
officers in keeping, and filled the Court room.
The prisoner himself wasfrightened at their de.
moniac appearance, and fled, with cry ofmur-
der. to the farther rend of the room.
He was, however, secured by the mob, who
had speedily silenced the opposition Of the few
officers in the room, and taken in triumph down
the stairs, and into the street. 1.-The officers did
not attempt to follow, and with shouts of tri.
umph the mob hurried off with the fugitive, and
were last seen in the vicinity of Belknap street,
where negroes chiefly congregate.
While the mob was in the court room, the
sword of the Marshall hanging in the sheath O.
yer his desk, was drawn by one of them and
fourisbed over the heads of the officers. ltwas

D' History tells us of certain parsonage,
who after trying various ways to gain immortality,
set fire to Temple, az the last resort. BY
more traitorous, and far less connnendabe course
is the author of the following communication
which we extract from the Ne. Star, seeking to
gain abrief notce' from those who curse an
Arno!d's course. Read the extract:
would prefer Southern IVaiys in the Presi-
dency aud Vice Presidency, would cordially sup
port Northern men br:thOse Offices even though
they were Democrats in preference to those Of the
school of Rhett and Barnwell
Did Barnwel or Rhett ever say to @Vox
Popu' that he should not enjoy all equal privi-
lege in this Union, with them. Did they ever
seize lanls which lie had fought to gain, and TIL
him he should not enjoy them? Did they ever
engage in series of measures tending to his de-
gradaton9 Did they ever reduce him to posi-
ton in which submission would he utter disgrace?, =,
Never! but they have ever batted nob!y and gal
lantly, for his rights, in common with their own,
and this is his return. Tis thus with the hound,
the hand that beats him most, lie is the readiest
to lick, while the arm that would defend him, he
would bite
L" lie thai is ungateful h.sa single fault, 81
All others ross for VIRTUES in him. " -
Now we would ask "Vox Populi," and The
"Star" also, if he indorses his correspondents
political alblasphemy-(wlch We hope he doesnot).
What injury, Rhett or Banwell has done them?
And would ask them too, if they would rather
join with those who are striving to make them
slaves, or those who are struggling to defend
them. Is it not strange that they should thus
coaIesce with their worst enemies, and war against
their best friends. But too true, it bespeaks the
character of the animals. go g.

RETURN DAYS
Mercantile Associations, New-York.

In speaking Of these Associations in our issue
Of Friday last, we made some remarks which
might lead to misconstructions, and do great in-
justice to class of worthy gentlemen, whom 'fe
know to be above just imputations Our re" rks
on the subject were not intended to apply, nor do
we intend that they shall beconstrued to apply. to
any gentlemen of the legal profession in our town.
The Bar of Camden, embraces body OF men as
honorable and true to the interest of the South,
as can be found in any community-and whatever
correspondence they may have, or have had, in
the discharge of professional duty with their eli.
ents abroad, we are satisfied that they never will
lend, nor ever have lent themselves to any "secret
vilIanes" of our enemies.
We deem this explanation due to the Members
of that Bar, of which we are Member.
w7 Our thanks are due the Hon. John Nc
Queen for recent favors.
