Our columns supply full accounts, both from our
European correspondent. and from California
papers, Of all matters of public interest The
European news received by telegraph has already
passed under review, and il is only necessary TO
add, that the brief selections made from the foreign
journals, in our summary, will be ascerained TO
give all the information which was omitted in our
telegraphc dispatches.
The California news, brought by the Georgia, is
highly interesting II is with sincere pleasure that
we announce the termination Of the ravages of the
cholera, which seem to have been chiefly severe
upon Sacramento city. We have taken pains TO
collect list of all the deaths noticed in the public
journals, and regret that serious mortality has
marked the early history Of the new State. 1t is
consolation, however, TO perceive that society
bears up against the afiiction and tina, hopes are
entertained of more heal thful season during the
winter.
The commercial accounts are quite brilliant. 1t
lie estimated that about four millions Of dollars in
gold may be expected here, as that amour, has
arrived at Panama Such an addition to the large
amounts already received, for several months past
shows that the mines are still largely productive
and the preparations for the winter operations, as
we are instructed by the journals, promise fur
aspect Of California is not particularly marked,
but the democratic party seems TO be in the ascend
ant, and preparations fer a political harvest are
not neglected, even while the desires OF the Cali
sornians are turned towards the golden regions.
All the events which have TRANSFERRED In Califor-
nis since our last sdyices, will be found noticed
in OR news columns, in full.
MEETING OF THE LEGISLATURE. The Legisa.
ture Of this State will meet in the capitol, at Al
bauy, 10 day and, according to all accounts both
houses will organize and proceed to business at
once. We may possibly be able to lay Governor
Hunts message before our readers in to- mouow's
Herald.
According to present appearances, the most i'm
portani business Of this session will be the election
Of United States Senator, TO supply the place OF
the Hon. Daniel s Dickinson, whose term Of Of
flee will expire on the fourth IF March next We
would like to zee Mr. Dickinson reelected, but
the Legislature Is go composed there is no
possibility Of il. lie IL entitled TO the graft
tude Of the whole country, end conferred honor on
the Empire State by his dignifed and patriotic
policy on the slavery question, and his unbending
advocacy OF the compromise bile, during the last
session Of Congrefs. We have a right, however,
to demand that no member Of the Seward clique
shell be elected TO represent New York in the
United States Senate. Let no person who is in
the least tainted with free soilism or abolitionism,
msrepresent the shes Of the people Of this State
II not TO outrage their feelings. But such a one,
we fear will be elected.

The Knickerbocker has notice of the poem
of Charles Swain, with some extracts, from whic
we take the following verses on ssMary:''
The-gracefll and the beautiful,
The gentle, kind, and airy,
Together met to mould the form
And gift the mind of Mary.
There's nature in each careless curl,
In ever grace a moral
Her mouth-tis Cupid S mouth-sweet girl,
And full Of pearls and coral.
She's like the keystone to an arch,
That consummates all beauty;
She's like the music to march,
Which sheds a joy on duty
All happy thoughts and feelings rife
Seem evermore to guide her;
The very ills and cares of life
Forget themselves beside her.
Each sweet expressive glance appears
Of Natures best selection
1t took the world six thousand years
To perfect such perfection
All gifts divine that could combine,
All charms of nymph or fairy,
Agreed to grace one beauteous face,
And witch the world with Mary.
She speeds as if with wings SO fleet
No birds could e 'er surpass them;
Yet none can ever spy her feet,
Though 'tis believed she has them!
She lends spell to every scene,
Her step makes acinter yernal
A something half divine, between
The earthly and eternal
