"A criais is approaching that must, if it cannot
be arrested, soon decide whether order and good
government shalt be preserved, or anarchy and
confusion ensue can most religiously aver
have wish that is incompatible with the dig
nifty happiness, and true interest of the people Of
This country My ardent desire il, and my aim
has been, az far depended upon the Executive
Department, to comply strictly with all our
gagements, foreign and domestic; but to keep the
United States free from political connexions with
every other country, to see them independent
OF all and under the influence Of none. In word,
9 | want an dmsrican character, that the powers of
Europe may be convinced we act for ourstlus,,
and not for others. This, in my jud gment, is the
only way to be respected abroad and happy at
home; and not, by becoming the partisans OF Great
Britain France, create dissensons, disturb the
public tranquility and destroy, perhaps forever,
. the cement which binds the Unon.''
GEORGE WAsHIseToS, 1895.
"Rtsolred, That We regard the serIes of acts
known as the Adjustment measures as forming
. IN their mutual dependence and connexion sys-
. TEN Of compromise the most conciliatory and the
best for the entire country that could be obtained
from conflicting sectional interests and opinions,
aud that, therefore they ought TO be adhered to

tlement in principle and substance of the danger
Gus and exciting subjects which they embrace"

CALIFORNIA EAIGrATfos.- The rush for Cali
forna has never been greater than nov. All the
steamers, so far ss learn, have their accom-
modaiions engaged up 20 about the 9th proximo
and lev have any that can be bought, except at n
premium before April Iguorsn Of these fscts Of
ten involve individuals from distant parts Of The
country in serious difficulty. Arriving in the
city, with the mistaken idea lhst they have but 10
present their money and be or they find that they
must either retrsco their journey. or wait month
or 40 tor their turn. The California fleet (Nev
York and Cbagros stesmers) consist Of thirteen
large steamships, mostly making semi monthly
trips, besides the prOpeliers Getty Of New York"
and West Wind" recently put on the route
altogether capable Of carrying about 900 pnssen.
gers The list is as follows: Crescent City, En-.
pire CITY, Ohio, Georgia Brother Jonathan, In.
dependence, Daniel Webster, PrOrnotheus, Sierra
Nevada, United States, III Dorado, Illinois, and
Cherokee.
Two Of these, the Cherokee and Promothcus
sailed yesterday, taking out, together, about one
thousand passengers Tho present emigration is
OF character widely different from that which
TOOK place during the earlier stages Of the gold
lever, embracing many persons in easy circum-
stances, substantial farmers aud entcrpnsing me
chanics There is, too. liberal sprinkling of
women and children. Much may be hoped from
them. They will give tone and character TO any
community with which they may ally themselves.
An unusually large number appear 10 be going
from western New York. We noticed Yesterday
morning a company Of between sixty and seventy
Cahiornia- bound young men, mostly from ST
Lawrence county.

Important if True

We have not seen any other notice of the
fact stated in the following from the Piketon
Journal but, if correct, it is certainly Of
great importance;
IRON sMELTED WITH CAMEL Coal IN JACK
soN.-The Cincinnati Gazette recently an
nounced an important experiment, as having
been made at the Buckeye Furnace, in Mil
ton township, Jackson Co.
appears that they introduced camel coal
into the furnace, to the extent Of three
,fourths charcoal, and found noticeable i'm
'provement, both in the yield and quality OF
the Pig Metal, with eachaddition OF the can
mel coal. ies' -As.t
The metal thus obtained was subsequently
tested OF the rolling mill, and found TO make
superior bar iron. We consider this novel
experiment to be a very important one, and
we invite general attention TO it.

A Grand whig Fizzle.

The whig meeting at New York, on the Sd
inst, was the greatest fizzle ofthe season. -
Constitution Hall, even, was notfulI. The
Herald says there was an nabsenee of the mas
ses, an absence Of speakers, anabsenee ofen-
thusiasm, an absence, in fact, of everything
that constitutes successful meeting. AT
such moment this meetings. very ominous
and argues the .foregone conclusion that the
game isup, and that the wings, both leaders
and masses, are conscious Of the undeniable
fact. There wasbut one orator, Mr., Stanley
of North Carolina-and tits evident that he
had up hillwork, and that be must have la
bored under terrible sense ot weakness
when thewhole burthen Of his speech was a
miseleble rehashof the personal attacks made
on the coufageo General Pierce, in the par
