Withdrawal of MIR. MCDOugall.

The Times s. Transcript Of Saturday
contains the following letter from Judge
Murray, on the nomination of Mr.. MIC
DougalI:
To the Democratic Voters and The Public
of California:
During a temporary absence from this
city, an article appeared in the Commercial
Advertiser of July Goth, which imposes
upon me the necessity of explaining my
position, as well as that of my friend,
General McDougall.
Before leaving California, General Nc
Dougall informed me that he would not
be candidate for reelection, and au-
thoyized me as his personal and political
friend, to say so. Every letter ne has
written to me has contained an unqualified
refusal to be candidate.
The conversation | am represented to
have had with distinguished member or
members of the bar at Marysville, was to
this extent: that if the Convention, not
anticipating that there would be two]
should find it Impossible to harmonze in
the selection of candidates for Congress,
that thought it would be better us mat
ter of policy, to nominate Messrs. Nc
Dougall and Latham. That they were
not here during the exciting political diff
ference of last winter, and consequently
would be less Objectionable to the party.
That while General McDougall was not
a candidate and did not desire his name
to be used, yet as a Democrat, he would
feel bound to make personal sacrifices for
the welfare of his party, and would pro-
baby consent to be candidate in such
an emergency, but no other
Such contingency has not arisen, and
| feel authorized to say that while Gen.
McDougall may feel fattered by the COM
pliment voluntarily paid to him by so
large body of his party, he will not con-
sent to allow his name to be used in oppo-
sition to an equally respectable number
of his political friends and admirers. My
relations to General McDougall are too
well known to require any apology ip
thus coupling my name with his.
The editor of the Commercial Adver-
tiser has done me the honor to admit, al
most in terms, that am authorized to act
for Gen. McDougall was not present
at the Convention that gave rise to these
unhappy difficulties in the Democratic
party, either as a delegate or spectator
and with no disposition to thrust myself
between the quarrels and difficulties Of
others, simply desire to correct mis-
statement, and to withdraw the name Of
my friend, as am authorized to do, from
the present Congressional contest.

GENTLEMEN:-I am this morning in
receipt of your favor dated May 81, en-
closing copy of letter recently received
by you from S. A. Nc Means, Esq, Trea-
surer of the State of California, and truly
regret that such a communication should
have been addressed to you, or that any
thing should have occurred to disturb the
arrangement with YOU to pay the interest
on State of California Bonds, due in New
York on the lst of July next, out of funds
to be placed with you to the credit OF the
State for that object.
You will allow me to say that am very
sure the Treasurer has written the letter
referred to without full knowledge of all
the facts, and without knowing as 90
how entirely disinterested and generous
the action of your House has been to.
wards our State.
You may be assured, gentlemen, that
in due time this matter will be pu: entire
ly right and your liberal conduct be
promptly appreciated. SO confident do
feel of this and of the honest and correct
intentions of Mr.. McMeans, our State
Treasurer, that feel no hesitation in as
surfing you that he will cheerfully and

ton upon your motives and any offensive
language alluded to by you written under
an entire misapprehension of your posi-
ton in this matter.
Mr.. McMeans is gentleman of too
high sense of honor to knowingly and
intentionally do injustice or wrong, and |
therefore repeat that l feel very confident
he has written to you under wrong I'M
pressions, and will promptly do you JUS
tice when he comes to know all the facts.
Under these circumstances | beg you
will for the present at least, pass over the
offensive letter and allow the arrangement
for the payment of the lst of July interest
to remain undsturbed.
ask this with the more earnestness as
| am very desirous that your House should
be the medium Of these payments.
Respectfully,

can.
We ask, then, if a party which by the
popular verdict has been universally
wrong-whose whole history has been
one grand stupendous error-whose prin-
ciples of association breathe a spirit of
republican ntagonism-who resisted the
acquisition of California and of the ter
ritory necessary to unite her by iron bonds
of communication with the Atlantic States
can now receive the sanction of pro-
gressive public sentiment We wish to
know if that democracy, whose history is
without fear and without eproach-who
have made the whole boundess continent
of America the field for the spread of
enlightened epubllcanism-w who with JEFF
ferson, jackson and Polk have trumphed
so repeatedly against the cohorts OF fede
raism-who have planted the stars and
stripes upon the Pacific shores, and whose
course is still westward even unto the
confines of European light, wiIlnow tame
ly submit to surrender Of their cherished
tenets into the hands of fogyism and whig-
gerry? Think of it, Democrats, and once
more wheel into line as one man, for the
sake of the country and the cause.

New YORK, May 81, 1854.
TO G. w. Cook, OF PALMER, Cook Il
Co.-Sir: Since our consent to receive
from you the deposit of a bill of exchange
due the 20th June, instant, for $5O, 200,
for account of the State of California, to
be applied when paid towards payment
of the interest of the State, due here on
the 1st of July next, we have received
letter dated April 25th, 1854, from S. A.
McMeans, Treasurer of the State of Cali
fornia, of character so extraordinary,
and in language so offensive as promptly
to determine us, whilst it remains uneX-
planned or unwithdrawn, to decline on
any terms acting in behalf Of the State as
its financial agents for the payment of It's
interest in this city.
We shall give no reply to such a com
its publication necessary, injustice to our
selves and to truth, we shall not hesitate
to give it to the public.
That you may be in possession of its
extraordinary contents, we herein hand
you copy of the same, and in doing so
request your particular attention to the
following paragraphs:
"The first letter you addressed to his
Excellency, Gov. Bigler, in regard to the
failure, was truly cOmmendatory OF your
own actions in the cause; and but for one
declaration it contained, wholly irrecon-
cieable to me, when considered in con-
nection with known facts it would have
afforded me the utmost pleasure to have
promptly communicated the supreme salts
faction your generous conduct gave to the
officers of the State and people,"
"In your letter to which above refer
red to, you used the following language:
sWho the agent of the State is we know
not In the face of this declaration it is
alleged by Palmer, Cook & Co., that the
house of Duncan, Sherman & Co. had
made formal application to them for the
agency of the State, which was conferred
on the American Exchange Bank"
Now, inasmuch as we have never,
directly or indirectly, made any such ap-
pication to Messrs. Palmer, Cook & Co.,
(Of which firm you are a member,) on
this or any other subject, and never en-
tertained the most remote idea of doing
so, we are enabled to pronounce the allie
CATION referred to, aoholiy, dasely and un-
conditionaly false.
We are certainly getting very poor,
and, to say the least, very singular return
for an act of disinterested kindness to-
wards your State-such we think as the
good people thereof will hardly approve,
for we are yet quite unwilling to hold
them responsible for the extraordinary
conduct manifested on this occasion by
some Of their temporary officials.
Should we be wrong in this opinion we
apprehend such gratitude as zoe have re-
ceived will scarcely prompt to like action,
in case Of need, from other quarters.
Your ob't serv'ts,

WEEKLY MAIL TO CALlFoRNIA.-On
the 29th of June the House of Represen-
tatives resumed the consideration of the
bill providing for a weekly mail service
between the Atlantic States and San Fran
cisco Some conversation took place as
to the effect of this bill on the existing
contracts.
Mr.. Mace said the Select Committee on
steamship frauds, would report the follow
inc week. The Collins line needs over
hauling and critical examinations After
the report shall be submitted, the House
will have it in their power to curtaIl
greatly the expenses Of the Ocean Mail
Service, and afford equal facilities to
those which now exist between New York
and Liverpool and California, at greatly
reduced rates. He was not prepared at
thar time to saddle the Government with
an additional expense of $25O,OO0 year
for a weekly service, when we are pay
ing almost twice as much for a semi
monthly mail.

The LIBERTAD's PAssENGERs.-Eight
more of the Chinese who came over to
this country in the Libertad, died yester-
day, and were brought to the COroner's
office in this city. There are large
number of them still sick, of whose re-
covery very faint hopes are entertained.
The Chinese themselves manifest very
little feeling for their suffering country
men, and cannot be induced to lend
helping hand. The sick are so emaciated
and weak that death comes on them al
most instantly, and after a kick and a
slight convulson, all is over.
