( The CALIFORNIA MEMORIAL.-lt was stated,
some time since, that an assembage of Califor-
mans was to be had at Washington for mutual
consultations and the adoption of n proper plan
for the submission TO Congress of memorial
setting forth the indispensable necessity Of some
enlarged and liberal action by government in be-
half of the numerous objects in that State, which
rightfully claim the fostering care of Congress.
The result Of the meeting which has just been
held, is detailed in the following abstract, which
as u matter of interest to hundreds OF our citi-
zens, and their friends, who have already gone,
or are contemplating removal to the land OF
gold, we give in our columns.
The memorial Of the convention Of citizens OF
California, lately held at Washington, urges inG
strong and able manner the claims Of that State
upon the general government. The memorial
asks for the immediate survey Of the agricutur-
al lands aud the extension to settlers of the ben
eft of the land laws. 1t asks for donations Of
land, for purposes of education, &C. 1t partic-
ularly urges the grant of the right of way, and
of adequate pecuniary aid, for the construction
of a national highway between the Atlantic and
Pacific ocean,
The memorial gives an exalted idea of the
richness Of California in minerals, and particu-
larly in gold, quicksilver, silver, &c. The annu-
al product OF gold from auriferous quartz will
be, :hree years hence, two hundred and twenty.
five millions. Examples are given to prove the
richness of the gold bearing quartz. The aver
age result of specimens sent to London was
$500 a tom the picked specimens were equal
to $4,000 ton. An assay of gold-bearing
quartz, at the mint, which weighed 1888 ounces
in its natural state produced $l,73l in gold, or
$50 an ounce. The amount of gold dust during
the next three years, is estimated at one humid
red and fifty millions Of dollars.
The memoriaists ask that no disposition be
made by Congress, of the mineral lands of Cali
fornia, and they concur with the Presidents rec
ommendaton that the lands be left common pro-
perty Of the American people
The memorial gives fatterng view of the
agricultural resources and the vegetable pro-
duets of California, as well rs of it's increasing
trade. In ten or fifteen years the trade and COM
merce of the Pacific will fully equal the COM
merce of the Atlantic, and the seas and rivers
connected with it.
Steam communication with China is also rec
commended to the attention of Congress.

bill has been introduced into the Legisla-
ture of California, providing for the restoration
OF SLAVES brought into The State before the adoption
ofthe Constitution. This would seem to be par
tial evidence at least that the Proviso" was not
altogether unnecessary for California. An as
sociation has been formed in San Franciso, con-
sisting of several merchants whose purpose is
to obtain an abundant supply of ice from the
northwest coast. They have sent to sea the
ship Flavus, with proper implements for cutting
ice, and for receiving it on board. The Flavius
is to visit one or more of the Russian trading
ports, not so much to obtain a supply at this adj
vanced season as to construct artificial ponds
near the shore, where ice may be readily obtain
ed next season. For this purpose the ship car
ries the necessary outfit She will, if possible,
obtain cargo, but the association, with their
limited information, are not so confident of sue
cess as they are of making arrangements for fu-
ture supplies They look for lee from the Arc
tic regions summer after next, and possibly for
sample cargo as early as July next.

- A most daring attempt at an assassna-
ton of the Queen of Spain, was made on the
4th ut., by one Martin Merno, a clerical digni-
tary. He approached the Queen for the osten-
sibe purpose of presenting petition, and when
stretching forth her hand to receive it, she re-
ceived wound in the right side, from dagger
which Merino had concealed under his clerical
robe. She is thought not to be dangerously
wounded. A Geographic despatch of the 18th,
from Madrid, says, +" this afternoon, at quarter
past one, the criminal who made the attempt
on the life of the Queen, has been executed"

GEN. CAss IN New JERsEY-We are forced
to confess, says the Newark Eagle, that public
sentiment in New Jersey runs very decidedly
towards Gen. Cass. In, fact it sticks out so
plainly, that it would be folly to affect to dsre-
gard it. Three influential papers in this State
carry his name at the mast head, and the various
Trenton correspondents of the country papers
speak of him, without exception, as the first
choice of the Democracy of New Jersey"
In recent letter, the correspondent of tho
Railway Republican writes: "The Presidential
question begins to be discussed with more free
dom of expression, and the Democratic current
is evidently setting in favor of Gen. Cass. He
is certainly the choice of the masses, in this
State, and nothing but the most adroit legerde-
main can deprive him of the New Jersey delega-
ton in the Baltimore Convention. His lifelong
devotion to the Republican party, his ripe and
liberal craftsmanship, united with the spotless
purity of his private character, all conspire to
point him ont as the standard bearer Of the De-
mocracy at the approaching contest"

THE Wires AND THE PREsIDENCY.--Th
wing press seems to be wonderfully troubled
about the next candidate Of the democratic par
ty for President They nearly all agree as to
one thing, that Gen. Cass, does not stand the
least chance! Still they seem to oppose him,
even before the National Convention meets, as
the man who is to be nominated. They had bet

tend little closer to their own particularly
the Scott men, who may yet be forced 10 go it
without why or wherefore" for Mr.. Fillmore.
He has already been nominated by Tennessee
and Kentucky, both powerful States in wing
national convention. They will be- unable to
nominate Scott unless they give him permission
to come out boldly, as he has privately, at WASH

his abolition letter, his Native Americanism, and
the dishes he has prepared for them, and which
coming before the public, will upset an their
