Whig Nominations.

The following opinions of the nomina-
tions of the recent Whig State Conven-
ton, coming from the source they do,
cannot but have large influence on
the minds Of voters
The Sacramento Convention has COM
pleted its labors. Judge Emo, of Gala
veras, has been nominated for Lieut..
Governor. He bears very high repu-
tation for honesty and ability, and is
popular among the citizens of his own
county. Judge Tod Robinson, Of Sacra-
mento, is the candidate for Supreme
Judge. His nomination will add strength
to the ticket. The nomination of Capt.
Selim Woodworth of our city, for Sur
veyor General will be received with
pleasure by his fellew citizens. A bet-
ter selection could scarcely have been
made. Capt. knight, of San Joaquin,
the candidate for State Treasurer, was
member of the last Legislature. With
the merits of the other gentlemen on
the ticket we are not YET acquainted.
Mr. Crabb has expressed his determine
tion to support Mr.. Waldo for Governor.
both parties in the Anti-Bigler ranks,
should 60 to work at once, and stump
the State from one end to the other, that
the people may clearly understand the
schemes of tho Extensionists and the
iniquities of the Bigler clique. They
have only to be known to excite univer-
sal indignation Herald.
The Wing Convention at Sacramento
adjourned yesterday, after completing
the business of nominating candidates
for the various State officers. We are
unacquainted with most of the nominees,
but understand them to be in the main
of ability and integrity. The fact that
they are unknown in the political intrig-
ues Of California is strongly in their fa-
vor.
Altogether, We think the Convention
manifested a greater degree Of discre.
ton and patriotism than is usually found
in such bodies by throwing off the old
stagers of the party-m en- whose partic.
ipation in the public affairs of the State
hitherto. has made them unpopular, if it
has not created a distrust of their rec
titude. The tickets of the two parties
are now fully before the country 1t is
the duty as we'll as the privilege of the
people, who are to be affected by the
result, to choose between them not as
between Wings and Democrats, but as
between the representatives and adYo.
Gates of two systems of local State policy;
between men who have been tried and
found wanting, men who are fresh from
the gold fields and barley meadows of
the country, and who have at least no
apparent reason for betraying the trust
to be reposed in them. The struggle is
not for party principles but for the.
spoils of the Commonwealth on the one
side, and State Reform on the other
We shall oppose the one not because it
is, but because it is not Democratic, and
support the other not because It is Whig,
! but because it is for Reformation.-Alto.

to hoist flagstaff for the tri-color in
the public garden of that city. The
English, American and Danish flags
wave there already, but the French
trade and interest are considered too
Insignificant to sanction one for them.
The dispute RACES fierce and furious,
and bets run high on both sides. Phil
osophical persons attribute the quar-
rel to the low state of trade at present
which renders excitement of same sort
absolutely necessary.

NEws.-Eastern papers are not sufi-
ciently 'posted up in regard to political
matters in California. No doubt our
former Secretary of State, as well as the
present incumbent, will be surprised to
learn that the distinguished Tuolumne
Senator holds the position to which they
have been elevated. A late Baltimore
paper has the following item of infor'
nation
CALIFORNIA GEoLoeY.-We have re.
ceived from the Secretary of the Com

| DIFFICULTY WITH MExICo.-W ash
ington, June 6th.-There are strong 'in.
dications that another Mexican War is
about to take place. The government
have already taken measures to notify
Mexico that her military occupation Of
Mesilla Valley must at once be abon-
doned.
Gen. Garland who goes out to see the
intentions of the u S. Government car
ried out, will take with him about 400
troops in good fighting order.
Messrs. Underwood & Cos extensive

ed by fire on the night of June 4th.

The PACIFIC RAILROAD BEGUN.-The
Pacific Railway Company of Missouri,
advertises for loan of S4,O0O,000. For
ty miles of the road, from St. Louis
westward, are nearly completed, and
the route is so directed that it will con-
meet with any other line to the Pacific
that may hereafter be constructed.
SOUTHERN CRoPs.-Account from the
Mississippi and Red river districts are
still unfavorable for the crops, owing to
cold nights and continued drouth.
U. S. TRoops FOR New MEXICO. co.-The
Washington correspondent of the Jour-
nal of Commerce says, relative to the
Governor of New Mexico Gen. Gar
land was here yesterday, being still de-
tanned for portion of his instructions !;
but he was to leave to-day. He is to
have authority, in case of necessity, to
call upon the Governor of Texas for an
adequate force to repel the Meyican
invasion of the disputed territory. The
Texan Rangers will respond with alac-
rty to a summons that promises the
great advantages of sure and high pay,
and easy victory. 1t is mentioned that
Gen. Garland has said that if he had
to hit Gov. Trias a. all, he should hit
him hard.
RloT IN MoNTREAL.-A serious riot
had taken place in Montreal, caused by
lecture delivered by Father Gayazzi,
the anti-papist priest, declaring that
Irish ribbonism would renew the lnqui
sition, &c. He was dragged from the
pulpit, the military were called out, and
fred into the crowd. Several persons
were killed on the spot.
A despatch, dated New York, June
1lth, says:
An armed military force is still pa
trolling the streets of Montreal. Four
of the wounded have died, making
eleven killed. and at least forty 9th srs
wounded. A meeting of the citizens
has denounced the action of the Mayor,
in ordering the military to fire, as unfit
to hold the Office. The Mayor now de-
nies having ordered the military tc fire.
Several Catholics were conspicuous in
the riot.
A still later despatch says three more
victims have died.

REVOLUTION IN CHINA.-In relation
to this important revolution. The S. F.
Herald of the 9th, says
The highly important news from China
we publish to-day will be read with
deep interest. The Revolutionists have
captured the great city of Marking, in
the face of desperate resistance. The
carnage which followed was dreadful.
The victors put to death two Imperial
Governors, great number of Generals,
all the Mandarins, with their whole
households, relatives and followers and
boast that they slaughtered 5000 of
the Tartars, without sparing age or sex.
They captured at the same time the
Imperial chest, containing large amount
of money. No better evidence Of the
complete route of the Imperialists could
be given than this circumstance. The
rebels are now about half way from the
scene OF their first uprising to Peking.
They have cut off the Emperor from all
communication with the province south
Of the Yangtsze- -kiang, and now threaten
to advance on him at Peking, with an
immense army flushed with victory and
laden with plunder. But the most ex-
traordinary feature of the news is the
announcement that the Revo.utionists
are Protestant Christians, familiar with
the doctrines of Christianity, and en-
forcing them outwardly at least in prac-
tice. A Chinese version of the Bible
freely circulates in the Rebel camp, and
the Ten Commandments are posted in
conspicuous positions about Marking
This new feature in the rebellion is deep
~ Interesting to the Christian World
Should Tieu-teh succeed in establishing
himself on the throne, and driving out
the Pagan Tartars, Of which there is
now every probability, he will without
doubt greatly extend the privileges oi
the foreigners whom he calls broth
ers." The interdiotion of commerce
with the interior, and with the sealed
ports of the Empire, will probably be
removed, and great benefit must result

The Pope of R0me.-We clip the FOLLOWING

fS 'It y = III llC lOlID lIg
from the New York Journalg Of Commerce:
awe learn from a very intelligent gentleman
who has means of information on the subject
which we have not, that a change in the policy
Of the Pope more in accordance with the policy
of the age than that which he has recently
pursued, is rumored in some of the diplomatic
circles of Southern Europe. 1t is stated that
he has recently made his confessor and COM
panion a Cardinal. This man processes liberal
views. He is a Capuchiu, and is reputed to
possess much talent. He has been long oppo-
sed to Antonnelli and others of the retrograde
faction in the Sacred College. It's believed
that his Holiness will soon make him Prime
Minister. In this case, a new Cabinet will be
chosen, and amore liberal course will be pursu-
ed. The Pope will then 60 to Paris, and crown
Louis Napoleon-a measure TO which he is en-
tirely favorable, but which has been much op.
posed by Austria and some other powers, as
we'll as by the adherents of the Duke Of Bor-
dcaux."
