Arrival Ofthe Brother Jonathan.

n
The Nicaragua steamer Brother Jona-
than arrived on the 10th, with news 10
DAYS later from New York. The news is
unimportant.
Robert Mclean, formerly member OF
Congress from Baltimore, is spoken OF as
Minister to France. His appointment is
said to be urged by powerful influences.
Berthene Sweeten, a young and beauti-
full courtezan of New Orleans was murder
ed in that city on the 2lst ult. by a man
named Ballou.
The long expected event of the inauger-
alton of the Crystal Palace took place on
the l4th instant, i'll the presence Of a large
concourse. of citizens from all parts Of the
United States and residents of Europe. 1t
was a splendid affair, It's said. President
Pierce and his Cabinet honored the occa-
sion. Representations from almost every
country in Europe were on the spot. The
Fair has been thrown open to the public
though the articles of exhibition are not
yet all opened or arranged.
Mr.. F. G.. Gray, not long since a resi-
dent of California came to his death under
the most distressing circumstances at New
Rochelle, by being run over by a train Of
cars. 1t is thought that the deceased
sought his death, his mind having been af-
fected by illness.
Com Vanderbilt had arrived from Havre
to Russia in the North Star, and the mag
nifcent Boston clipper Sovereign of the
Seas had performed an unparalleled marine
feat by running from New York into the
Mersey in thirteen days and nineteen hours.
Another accident by explosion took
place at the iron foundry of j. r. Pratt,
Situated at Nos. 60 and 62 Attorney ST.,
New York, on the 10Th. The explosion
blew out the rear end wall of the basement
building leading into Ridge street, spread
ing the bricks and fragments of iron in
every direction, injuring several persons,
two or three of whom will, in all probabil-
ity, die from the injury sustained by the
scalding steam.
Mr.. Borland, Minister to Central Amer
lea, left New Orleans on the Dist ult for
Pensacola, whence he would embark at
once for San Juan del Norte.
Another accident has occurred on the
North River The fine steamer Empire
came into collision with a sloop on the 10th
inst. near Hamburg. Six or eight lives
were lost and some twelve injured.

Me-. We have received communication
from gentleman who says he is "neder
Week or Demokrat," which defes our
ability to reduce to good English, though
it is written in a handsome hand. The
idea seems to be however that he attended
the recent meeting at Grass Valley, and if
he had been called on to speak to the
peoples he would have advised them to
punish the present officers of the state by
putting them out, and then their successors
would learn the necessity of purity to re-
tain public confidence. Mr.. &c. Fl. Hill
debrand' will we trust endeavor to spread
his convictions among his German friends
who are voters.

RATTING.-The unfortunate peculiari-
ties of the Marysville Erpress have often
come under our own notice, and we have
been compelled to notice them sometimes
in self-defence in rather severe terms. Ac-
customed to them, we are surprised at no
crookedness in that sheet. Its most recent
effort to sustain its character has been ten
ders made to the Democratic party here to
take their printing from us and give to it
because it would do it for little or nothing.
The effort of the Erpress shows that des-
picable spirit which the craft generally
and scornfully denominate rafting" which
is the meanest in the scale of offences
known to the profession. We don't OBJ
Ject to its doing all the printing possible
according to good faith and open dealing.
But we hate rafting in all shapes, and des-
pise those who resort to it.

SACRAMENTO COUNTY REFORM TICKET
SO far as we can learn the nominations at
the whig county convention of Sacramento,
have given general satisfaction in that
county. The nomination of Mr.. Upson,
for the State Senate, the responsible editor
of the Union has impaired great strength
to their ticket This gentleman was born
in Massachusetts, educated to the legal
profession and had successful practice in
Alabama, and was long an editor of one Of
the most influential whig papers in that
state. Mr.. Upson has been the editor of
the Union for nearly a year. Under his
administration that paper has acquired the
enviable position of the wheel-horse of the
Whig press-the leading Wing paper of
the State. Mr.. Upson is one of the best
politically informed gentlemen in the state
is in fact locomotive encyclopaedia of
political facts and statistics. He is per-
feet terror to the Bigler party. We have
never heard him in debate, but he is said
to be selfpossessed, dealing stubbornly in
facts and reasons. We can well believe
this, knowing that his editorials display
that nice precision and logical correctness,
that SO particularly characterized Mr.. Cal
houn. The Bigler man who shall have
the temerity to venture to throw down the
glove to Mr.. Upson in the discussion of
California politics, would act wisely to
take his epitaph along with him. We
trust Mr.. Upson will be elected. He will
be thorn in the side of the opposition if
placed in the Senate even though he may
be greately in the minority, and deter that
body from acts of knavery by his extraor-
binary ability to analyze and expose. We
can but felicitate the reform party of Sac
ramento upon the wisdom of the selection.
With the other nominees we are less ac-
quainted, but recognize several gentlemen
of high character among them.
