The court martial on General Talcott
found him guilty of the charges. The finding
has been approved by the President, and he has
been dismissed from the service without any
reservation.
Tile n. Y Commercial says: -
The Boston Traveller for two out of three days
past has reached this office day alter it was due
by mail"
The reason is that the Travel r, under an OK
ploded system Of orthography, unwarrantably
and unnecessarily gocs two els for one. Such
Il paper is un voidably "behind time" and has
no right TO complain Of the mails.
-TnE BEST JOKE OF TIE SEASON. A
waggish chap, in Detroit Las been m king free
with the Pontiac Railroad, in Mic iran, and
illustrates the spced with which it is navigatcd
IN very conclusive manner. Some jealous
friend OF the Pontiac, enquiries triumphantly Of
the iault-tindcr if "any accident has ever oc-
CURED on that road 2" The grumber replies
that the rate Of spced on that "avcnue" is of
character to render ordinary accidents unlikely
to occur, and adds that the only melancholy
event that he remembers in connection with the
road is that of "a midHe-Ggcd couple, who left
Pontiac for Detroit, and DIED OF OLD AGE at
Blrmingham,- way!" The rumor is that
the Pontiac folks took a pinch of snuff, and re-
qucstcd that they might be carried out and
deccntly buried
Tile Burlington Courier has "com-
mcned' on the Letter of Mr.. PECK, to the tune
of what would ma Ike full fre columns in the
Daily Free Press Mr.. Peck, fortunately, is
in New York, and, as our lively friends gun
scatters dreadiulIy, as usual, his chances of
escape are very great We shouldn't be sur
prsed if he should come home in about his
customary health and spirits, notwithstanding
he is called " a mere lawyer" and his " defec
ton is pronounced "a miserable one"
The Courier man hopes largely tha, there
will be somebody besides himself, Eastman and
Barber, at the new State Convention, called a,
Montpelier on the 22d inst. to take into cons-
dera,on the deplorable, decapitoted, dscour-
aging and rather laughable condition of the
snnbbed and unacknoweGged democracy" of
OF Vermont. 1t is hoping against hope but the
poor fellows must "hope on, hope ever" as that
is about all they have left TO do If any of these
distressed politicians is in want of a hat, we
trust somebode will furnish tive have given
all our old ones away to the motley tribe, long
ago.
-Anoiher Boiler from the dEapidated
Shanty Of Free Democracy! E. II. WHEELER
Esq, of Charlotte, nominated for County Judge
by the Accommodation Line Democracy,
formerly known as Free Soilers'D in this

men! Keep nominating Go ahead Re-
member that "prnciples" are every thing

capital chaps and long may you wavc!"
Tile Resurrection Of San Franc,sco.-
The Alta California, received by the Prome,h-
us which arrived in New York from Chagres
on the Sd inst, says:-
"Our city is built up again In our last is
sue IOT tHc tctdtts, we tOlu OF It's QestTuCtlOn-
now OF its resurrection. Some plants take
root and sprout upward in such hurry that
they bring the old shell of the germ whence
they sp-ung, upon the upshootng stalk, the
bulb husk still clinging to it. So it is of our
city She has sprung up from her ruins liter
ally with ashes upon her head, standing unon
embers. We have streets again, blocks again,
houses, stores, business excitement, hustle pre-
sress, prosperity. Three fourths of the streets
are lined again with habtations, although not
four weeks have elapsed since the fire.
So, too, is it of Stockton. Accounts from
there are very encouraging. Her people havs
not been dishearlened by their great CALAMITY.
but have progressed very far in remedying, by
building, the destruction of their great fire."
We should think fire would get sick of trv-
ing to worry California after awhile.
