JOHN CH1NAMAN IN S1sKIYoU AND IN
TR1NIrY.-The Shasta Courier says that
the good people Of Yreka were thrown into
qsi5e ferment, a few days ago, by the
arrival Of about 35 Cinnamon, the first
Of that people who have visited that coun-
ty. It was the occasion of much cogita-
ton and agitation, and a number of per-
sons net to take measures to expel from
that section the pig-tailed gentry. The
Cinnamon promptly rendered the amount
of the miners tax for each one in advance
but no officer authorized to receive the
same being present, they were, we are glad
to state, permitted to remain notwithstan-
ding.

Ag~Tke Courier and Enquirerin speak
ing of education in California had the fol-
lowing:
Give hundred thousand acres of land
have been donated by Congress to the
State. This land has been appropriated
to the support Of schools, and something
more than sc, 600 acres have been sold,
yielding school-fund Of more than $500,
900. Tie interest on this, together with
such other probable sum as will accrue
from the sale of lands during this year, will
amount to about ss22, eco There has al
so accumulated in the State treasury to the
credit of the school-fund about $s24, 600,
which has been collected under revenue
law. This would make not far from $50,
900 for distribution to organize schools on
the 1st of January, 1854-a sum sufficient
to place them upon sure and almost free
basis during considerable portion Of the
YEAR.

THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA A letter fror
Vienna 81 ives the following account Of the En-
peror of Austria 1.-THE Emperor, although
the youngest sovereign in Europe, is one Of tn,
most remarkable for cool judgment aud applica
ton to business. He rises every morning al
six o clock, even in winter; and is never in bed
more than four or five hours. As soon as he
leaves his bedroom he goes into his cabinet,
where he gives audience to civil and military
lfunctionares, and enters into the most minute
details ofthe reports they make &c him His
| manner is digni.ied, bu cnld and rarely illanin.
ed with a smile but there is never anything
harsh in his language, even when cx?r ssinr
himself with the creates decision; aad his de-
cisions are always rymarkable FIR the strong
principles of justice on which they are founded.
AS soon as he has breakfasted-and this occu-
pies only few minutes-the Emperor has con-
ference with lis ministers, whom he frequently
astonishes with the knowledge that he displays
Of every branch of their departments, and for
which he is indebted to the Information he has
received from suboydinates. He listens calmly,
on great matters of state, to all they have to adj
wise, but if he has made up his mind on any
point, from precious and mature deliberatien, no
argument can induce him to change it. Like
tie Emperor Of Russia, he is in the habit of vi
sitting, suddenly, the barracks, and the public !
schools, where he nspects every hing, tastes
the food, to be certain that il is of good quality,
and in,errogates the soldiers and pupils to ascer-
lain If there are any just causes of complaint,
In the evening, after the public official duties of
he day, he withdraws to his cabinet, where he /
'eads his correspondence, makes notes # the
BUSINESS to be expedited on the morrow, and,
3 already stated, he retires to rest at Tate

From the Panama Star.

On Tuesday last, the Ecuadorian national
vessel Hermosa Carmen arrived here from
Guayaqul, with thirty-two Jesuits, who had
been expelled by the Ecuadorlan Government.
We are told that they were consigned to the
Governor OF Panama, with the request that he
would put them through the lsthmus and out Of
the country with all care and speed Ontheir
arrival they were informed officially that they
would he subjected to police surveillance during
their stay here, which was limited to day.
They returned answer that they had no resist
ance TO make to the law, but the Governor
wished them to land as prisoners, he would have
to send off and tie them, or put them under
guard. The latter was done, and they were
landed at the northern gate, under guard of
soldiers and police, who then conducted them
to the Cabido or City Hall, where their appear
ance created some excitement among some OF
our population. AT a later hour in the day, say
at about two in the afternoon under charge Of
one or two police officers, they were conducted
to the College, where they received such a,ten
lion from the authorities it was possible, und-
er the circumstances, to extend to them Yes
terday morning the whole body started fo-
Crucses.
