THE FILLlBUSTERS.


At a first glance at the news from
President Walkers camp, it would ap-
pear that the New Republic had been
blottcd from among the nations of the
earth, and that the tide Of adversely had
swept the brave pioneers into oblivion,
wrapt in a winding sheet of 'glory. -
But upon more critical examination,
this does not appear to be the case, for
both boots are on one leg; the bull -e.in
being manufactured, and expressed
through to San Diego, by Mexican
messenger. Now, from the experience
We have had of the veracity of Mexican
proclamations in the late war with Mex
leo, we may believe everything but the
defeat ofWalker, although such posi-
ton Of affairs is by no means improbable.
The condition OF Walkers band is some
thing like mus IN piee; and the Mexi-
can population, instead of helping them
out, will, from their antipathy to the A.
merican people, only push them further
in.
Crowds of fhcn are pouring into San
Francisco from every section Of the
State, all eager, for the want of some
thing better to do, or to secure share
of the spoils) to enroll themselves in the
armies of Progression, and fight under
the broad banner of the New Republic,
the flag Of the two stars. Already
advcnturers are being borne overthe bill
lows of the Pacific to the scene of ac-
ton.
The expo ditioniats, after securing c
firm foothold ir Lower California--which,
if not cut off before the arrival Of rein
forcements, they may be enabled to ac-
complish, will shape their course for
the land Of promise, Sonora. Whether
they will succeed in establishing per-
manent Republic in this fabled Gland

had narrow escape from instant death

was at work, on Tuesday. Miners can
not be too careful, this wet weather, as
the earth is now completely saturated;
and working under embankments, or
