Who b President WaKcrl

In reply to this very general inquiry New
Orleans paper gives the following Biography OF
the new President of Lower Californa--witll
Sonora annexed
"William Walker is native Of Tennessee,
born at Nashville, we believe, where his father
still lives, secretary of an insurance company
there. His father, think, is Scotchman
by birth, although long arcsident in the United
States. The Scotch features are strongly mark
ed in the features of the son, who is of light
blue eyes, face much frecklcd, but with an air
of unmistakabie energy with which his whole
character corresponds He was originally i'm
tended for the medical profession, and studied
[in Paris.-r~ -~sn7ssss~s@...---. ess a.
which he improved and disciplined m intellect
naturally strong, he came to the city of New
Orleans with the intention of practising But
his impatient disposition and his passion for pb=
lie life, led him to change that purpose; and he
forthwith applied himself to the study of the
law and prepared himself diligently for the bar
The bar did not find occupation enough for
him; and being a vigorous thinker, and ready
writer, and full of information upon all topics
of current interest, he took interest in news
papers and politics, and in the winter of lS4S
40 became directly connected with the press
of this city, as one of the proprietors and edi-
tors of the Crescent. The enterprise did not prove
profitable. The paper was sold out to other
parties in the fall of that year, and Mr. Walker
soon after followed the tide of emigration to
San Francisco. He resumed his professions
there, at the same time continuing his pursuits
as a journalist. In one of the disputes which
grew out of his newspaper articles, he became
involved in duel with one of his contemporaries,
in which he wounded.-IIe e acquired further
prominence by public controversy with one of
the State Judges by whom he committed
for contempt, and gained much reputation for
resolution and ability in the manner with whicL
he conducted the effort to obtain the I'M
parchment and removal of the Judge for tyranny
and misconduct in officc.-Mr Walker argued
the case before the Legislature, with power of
logic and learning which won him much esteem.
''The attempt failed. Mr. Walker then NOV
ed into the interior, practicing law at Marysville,
we believe since which have beard of him
only incidentally, until this expedition brings
him out as proclaimed President of an extern
pore Republic in the California peninsula
MIR Walker is young man yet, to have
passed through all these vicissitudes He is
of small size and slight flame, butt erect, vigo-
rous used to ATHLETIC exercise, very active in
habits of personal bravery, approaching to rash
ness, and an infexibility OF Will in the prosecu-
tion OF his purposes which nothing external can
shake. He is of the best stuff out of which
reyolutionizing hodics made. We desire to
say nothing of the merits of his present under
| taking. 1t looks like very wild adventure,
touched up strongly with the mock-hcroic."
