AMERICAN PRoTEcTIoN.- Koszra, pri-

America ond taking The oath Of allegiance

learned the facts, demanded the prisoner.
He was refused, but having got better
information than at first - the Capt.
cleared his decks for action and com.
pelled the Ausiral Captain TO surrender

promise. This manly action Of Capt.
Ingraham's we learn from the Washing.
ton Union will be approved by The Pres

nnd manly minds in Europe and America.

his staunch and decided action, moi only
raised the STARS and stripes over II e per,

Ausirians his family, and had them too
placed under The same glorious banner.
This is second edition Of the noble

received the plaudiis of the liberal and
good everywhere. We rejoice TO know

COL. GOLFERS GREAT GAL
PIllN PILE,

JOHN A. Collier, of the State of New
York, brother Of the la,o Collector AZ
San Francisco, has defense, now going
the rounds Of the press, against the i'm.
pu'aiions Of defalca,ion made against the
late official, in which lie denies that there
is any truth in the charges so grayely
made, and on which grand jury al San
francisco has uiquestionably indicted
him. lie says:
81 DO not know thar il will be a. all &C.
ceptable 30 The pubic 10 assure them
that the Government, is no, likely 10 lose
. farlhing by any real defalcation Of Col.
james Collier The Government may
defraud him, bu, with oil tho high exam-
pies before him, he has not ye, learned
how to defraud the Government.''
We would be eratified TO see this con.
fdence of his innocence fully sustained,
but we must admit that the case, so far
as il has yet been presented, is rather
bilious one.
The amount in controversy, originally,
between The Collector aud The Govern.
meni, was over $500, 900, made up Of
suspended aud disallowed claims. Vouch.
ers, filed since his rejection, have redu.
ced that fully one half, and i, is for those
which were disallowed tina, he is now in.
,lsting upon and for which he is under
indictment, as we understand the case.
The New York Express says ho has re-.
tained $l50,O00 of The funds in litigation,
TO aid him in conducting his side Of tho
contest. Now, as a law was passed du.
ring the last year Of Mr.. Folks admins.
tralion, declaring that all public money
collected should be deposited in the
treasury, for tho neglect of which certain
penalties were enacted, his Withholding
that amount Of collection, TO say nothing
of the full sum, places the collector in
mesh tina, will trouble him not little to
escape.
The New York Post noticed wha. had
been said of the Erprsss, as TO the seiz-
ure and sale Of the French merchantmen,
and adds that considerably less than
100000 was paid by Mr.. Collier into
the treasury on that account. II is also
stated that his official acts, in this re-
spect, are TO be investigated. llis prob.
able that his official acts will be found
quite bad enough, bu, j, is his unofficial
acts that require the most probing. For
instance, the seizure, libel aud sale of
the French vessels, without trial, was an
official oct, but j, could scarcely be
brought within the purvew Of an official
&C, 10 show how the purchase OF these
vessels and their cargoes, by an under.
bidder, for the benef, Of whom il nigh,
concern, "for considerably less than
100000" when il is well known that
their actual value was over million.
We recollect very we'll the excitement
in mercantile and political circles a, San
Francisco, while these astonishing coHfs.
