RETURN AND ARREST OF THE De-
FAULTING CRY MARSHAL AND TAX COL
LLcToR OF OAKLAND.-Anh hour before
the steamer Uncle Sam reached the
wharf yesterday morning, Capt, Durkee,
of the Police, received information,
through marine reporter, that among
the passengers was one John Hogan,
supposed to be the defaulting City Mar
shall of Oakland, who left here Decem-
Der 10th, 1854, taking with him about
$4,000 of the funds of Oakland city
treasury, which he bad received as e.
o6Feio tax collector. Capt. Durkee, ac-
complained by officer Talcot, Immediately
boarded the steamer and found the indi-
vidual sought for. 1t appears that Mr..
Hogan has spent the time very agreeably
during his absence, in visiting his friends
in Europe. He is accompanied by a
very pretty young woman who calls him
husband Another lady, residing in Oak
land, claims Mr.. Hogan as her liege
lord and under all these embarrassing
circumstances, it is evident that his re-
turn is California will prove exceedingly
disastrous to bimself.-S +. Herald.

C0roner's InQuest.

On Saturday last, the Coroner, Ed
ward NJ Burrows, Esq, was called to
hold an inquest in "Oregon Gulch," on
the body of cue Charles F. Schuneman,
a native of Germany. 1t appeared from
the evidence adduced before the Jury,
that the deceased w3s engagedin quar-
rel and scuffle on Sunday night, in the
latter part of July, with a man named
John Youncker, and that His death was
occasioned by wounds maliClously in>
ficted on his body by knife or other
sharp instrumt Mt, in the hands of said
John Youncker, While so engaged. A
verdict being rendered in accordance
with these facts, the Coroner immedi-
ately issued warrant for his arrest.
We are indebted to Mr. Burrows for
the above facts.

Dr. has been out on Temperance cam

STUPENDoUs ENTgapRIsE.-W learn
that the 60 ahead denizens of the thriv-
ing City of Oroville, have it in contem.
plation to turn the main body Of Feather
River from its channel, commencing at
Oroyille, and terminating some six or
seven miles below, at Kent's Ranch
The artificial channel, will pass through
fat Of light sandy soil, with sufficient
descent to be sluiced out. without the
labor of excavation 1t is said that a
dam, which would be by far the most
costly part Of the enterprise, can be
erected so as to, withstand the pressure
of the wet season, aud the whole project
has been declared practicable by men of
experience and intelligence. This
would lay bare some six or seven miles
OF the bed of Feather L, ver, portions of
which are known to be exceedingly rich.
The completion of this enterprise would
render Oroville the City of the North.
This enterprise is too magnificent to
fail, and the beuefts resulting from it
would be of incalculable advantage, not
only to this county, but the whole oI
northern California. We shall have
something to say upon this subject here
after, if our O:oviile friends VIII furnish
US with items and ficts concerning theil
movements.

MURRAY, G. j.
HEYDENFELDT, y
[ concur,

THE JAPANEsE.-Capt. Adams, of the
q. S Navy, who recently returned with
the Japanese treaty, found the Japanese
Officials extremely courteous and friend
ly, and the people social and communi-
cative. Their former distru<t and jeal-
ousy seemed greatly diminished. There
was some difficulty in procuring the sig
nature of the Emperor to the treaty, as
it was the custom for the supreme coun-
eli to act in his stead But the difficulty
was overcome, and the treaty with the
United States was the first that has ever
received the signature of Japanese
EmPero'. The privileges of trade Sc
cured are more liberal and advantageous
than have been secured by any other ma
ton that has obtained access to this iso
lated people.
The Jap ,nrse officials made many en-.
qu'rrs after Commodore Perry,,o whom
they sent messages of remembrance. -
The circular railroad and locomotive he
took out had been put up in Yedo, and
the japanese now manage them very
well, the locomotive making its trips
every day. They had also the life boat
in the water, with = special crew detailed
for her. The magnetic telegraph, how
ever, was rather too difficult for them,
and they had not succeeded in getting it
TO work properly. During the visit Of
Commodore Perry's squadron they took
measurement of the storeship South
ampton, and they had a vessel of the
model and dimensions nearly ready for
launching The old japanese law re-
stricting the size and model of the junks
has recently been abroga.ed, and the
government is now ambitious to possess
naval squadron similar to ours. From
this fact it will be seen how rapid is the
growth of new ideas in this secluded ma
tlon, and whet vast changes must noes.
sarily result from their further inter-
course with Americans.
The onI y American article they OBJ
Jected to the introduction of, was reli-
gion: They preferred their own, and
the Commissioners returned to Captain
Adlms bundle of religious books and
tracts which one of the American chap
lains had distributed among the people,
requesting him to take them back to
America. They demonstrated at this
attempt 70 proselyte the Japanese, as in
violation of the principles Of the treaty
and contrary to Japanese National
Inteuigenxr.

New MANIFEsTATIoN OF FANATrcIsM

G. Winthrop and Samuel A Eliot, Esqs.
as candidates for the degree of L. l..
D. The degree was promptly conferred
upon Mr.. Winthrop, but denied to Mr..
Eliot The reason of this dsni j is that
Mr.. Eliot, who was in the House of Re-
presentatives of the United States at the
session Of 1880, voted for the fugitive
slave bill. Nothing could save him
Character, standing, responsibility, ser
vices TO the college, all went for nothing
when set off against the fact that be had
voted for the fugitive slave bill. Even
an'i-Nebraskaism, even the fact that he
was chairman of meeting in Faneuil
h all last year, which denounced the re-
peal of the Missouri Compromise, and
talked strongly against the extension of
slavery, Old cot avail.
The Boston .4dre, tiser thus sums up
Mr.. Eliot's claims to the honor. 1t
says
"Mr. Eliot being graduate of Har-
vard College, son Of the liberal founder
of the Greek professorship, himself a
benefactor to the College, having for ten
years or more discharged with signal
ability and fidelity the Office of 'Treasur-
er, managing the investment Of its funds,
all without receiving one cent of COM
pensaIion-and being withal gentle
man of education and culture, distin-
guished and honored in the commu nifty
in which he lives-there was an obviou.
propriety in selecting him as candidate
for an honorary degree. For the over
seers to wander from the paths of li,era-
ture into those of politics, to discover a
single Objectionable vote in Congress on
question in which he undenlably fairly
represented his constituents, as a reason
for withholding the honor-was certainly
novel course of proceeding"
