Great astonishment as well - indigna-
tion is everywhere expressed at the high
handed scoundrelism recently developed
in San Francisco since the fight Of
Meiggs. But the bird has flown. After
forging about 81 100000 Of city scrip,
issuing 100000 of California Lumber
Cos stock, and committing other forge
ries to the amount of SI5O,0OO, be pur-
chased brig and outfit on credit, and
with his family left for parts unknown.
He was accompanied by his brother, John
6. Meiggs, city controller, w. Seaman
and others. The steamer Active was got
in readiness to 60 in pursuit, but broke
one of her wheels while approaching the
hulk for coal, and the search was aban-
doned. Thus some hundreds have suffered
beggared by the Operations" of a Cali.
fornia fast man. A few more explosions
may be expected before long.

Mining Items.

POKER FLAr.-Mr. p. Lambert, ol
Langton & Bros Express, furnishes us the
following items: Carlisle & Co., at this
place, took out from five to ten pounds a
day during the past week. Turner & Co..
10 pounds, weeks work. Wells & Co.,
average from 5 to ounces to the hand
per day. Derray & Co., 4 to 5 OF. to the
hand per day. The O'Harron claims have
paid from $500 to $500 every day this
week. A lump was taken out of the
kirkpatrick claims weighing l21l OF.
The JERSEY COMPANY have taken out
over two thousand dollars. up to Friday
evening. The rains have not injured their
works yet, as the flume is large enough to
allow the ordinary fall rise of the river
The work goes on twenty-five, out of the
twenty-four hours-only two hours behind
time.

SIERRA GuARDs.-This company Of vol
unteer militia has now completed its Or
ganization, and numbers over sixty rank
and file. A requisition has gone forward
to headquarters for arms and accoutre-
ments, which, it is expected, will arrive in
few days, together with commissions for
the officers. The Sierra Guards, being
the FIRST company thoroughly organized,
we believe takes precedence in the new
regiment about being formed. They meet
every evening in squads, ut their armory,
for drill, and for an a,ck,rard squad, Of two
weeks practice, are hard TO beat. We
witnessed their mannvres few evenings
back, and by the closest scrutiny could
not discover single man more than t,renty
feet out of bis place at any time We are
always inclined to make due allowance for
beginners, however, and any slight devia-
tion from an exact angle is overlooked in
the anticipation, that by the first public
parade they will be perfect enough to fight
with any Digger chieftian in the State.

The Battle at Guaymas.

The Time, + Transcript has the follow
ing account of the defeat of Count Raous-
set De Boulbon, at Guaymas.
"He attempted to land at Guaymas in
a small cutter with two guns, ten barrels
powder, and one hundred and fifty stand
of arms. He, however, got ashore before
entering the harbor, where the vessel lay
on her beam ends for two days, and in the
meantime was compelled to heave over
board his guns and his powder which was
wet. However, when he landed he pro-
ceeded to Gov. Yanez, of Sonora, and had
an interview with him. The Governor in
formed him that he must leave the coun-
try, as the populace were deadly opposed
to him. The Count assured him that he
intended to keep perfectly quiet. to which
Yanez answered that as long as he did so
he need fear nothing. In the meantime
about thirty Frenchmen marched up the
street and took possession of q house
called the French Hotel, from where they
opened fire upon the Mexlcans, who sur
rounded the house, and out of thirty
Frenchmen who entered only two we're
left alive. On the next day, July 1lth,
the engagement in Guaymas took place.
The Mexicans numbered over one thou
sand strong, the French and Dutch about
five hundred. The conflict was terrific,
and many whom Count Raousset counted
upon to aid him were among the things
that were. Our informant states that on
July llth he counted over sixty dead
bodies (Frenchmen) in the streets, and
many more had died of their wounds. The
Mexicans fought from the tops of their
houses as well as having field pieces
charged with grape, chain and canister,
which made sad havoc among the French
troops"

PERsoSAL.-Yesterday we had the
pleasure Of meeting with the Rev. J. w.
Douglas, Editor of the Pacific, our first
acquaintance, except through the columns
ofthat eminently good paper. Mr.. Douglas
established the Pacific in 1851, and since
then it has been a fearless, uncompromi-
sing enemy of vice, in all its phases,
though conducted with that spirit of mode
ration and good will to men, which must
ultimately command respect from the
reckless and unthinking, as we'll as those
who have not given up their integrity
Aside from its value as religious journal,
the Pacific stand in very high rank Of
newspaper literature.
