The Alta California furnishes the follow
ing summary OF the news of the week:
The principal maucr Of interest has been
the explosion Of the steamer Pearl, near Sa-
cramentu. ON Saturday. by which about sew
eniy lives were lost. Fiiiy three dead bod
lee had been found, and upwards Of twenty
persons are missing. There were one hun
bred and twenty-five persons on board, and
only fourteen escaped uninared. Among
the killed were about twenty Chlnamen.-
The captain and mate were killed; the en-
gireer escaped uulniured.
No register Of the passengers names was
kept, and Il is impossible 10 give list Of the
killed.
The funeral Of the dead was attended by
5000 persons aud the procession was over a
mile IN length.
Petitions are in circulation all over the
State for the pardon of John Tabor, now I'M
der sentence Of death for tae murder of Mr..
Mansfield, late editor OF the San joaquin
Republican.
A native Californian and two Cinnamon
were hung at Turner'S Ferry, on the San Jo-
aquin, by order of Judge Lynch, few days
since. They were arrested for cattle steal
ing, but owned to having committed several
murders.
The Indian troubles in die neighburhood
Of the klamath river, are becoming some
what alarming. A number Of white men
six, certainly-have been killed and about
thirty Indians. 1t is feared that there is to
be a general rising among the Indians Of the
north.
Geo. Sheldon was hung at Oakland by a
mob. Ills offence consisted in stealing a
horse from Alderman Kelsey
After season Of dry weather the rain had
once more set IN. A weeks steady rain
would add millions 10 the products Of the
/ placers.
The Senatorial question appears to be as
far from being settled as ever. The 3Sth
/ ballo,ing by the Legislative Convention was
completed, and with scarcely any differ mt

but the knowing ones predict that there is to
be general breaking up Of parties and Sec
TONS.
The Legislature has transacted no bust
ness of material importance so far. A bill
has been passed, appropriating $1,000 from
the Treasury to each member. The Gov
ernor refused his sanction 10 it, but il finally
passed in spite of the Governors veto by a
vote of So to 81.
Several honcidcs are chronicled. On
the evening of the 9th, Mr.. Il. M. Dackus
killed man who was pointed out to him as
having attempted to break into his house,
The person killed was named Simon, the son
Of respectable druggist at Berlin, Prussia.
The Coroner's Jury exculpated Backus, but
a lengthy examination before the Recorder
shows The justification for the killing was
very slight.

.Ne'osPapers.-Judge Longsireet, whose
views on all subjects are sensible, practical
and worth treasuring up, thus sets forth the
value of a news2aper:-
"Sm1ll Is the sum that is required TO
patronize newspaper, and most amply
remunerated is the patron. care not how
humble and unpreiendlng the gazette which
he takes, II Is next to impossible TO fill a
sheet iiity-two times year without put
ting into il something that is worth the
subscription price. Every parent whose
son Is oil from him at school should be
supplied with n paper. well remember
what difference there was between those
OF my schoolmates who had, and those who
mad not access 10 newspapers. Other
'hings being equal, the first were always
decidedly superior to the last in debate
ana composition at least. The reason is
pla'n; they had command of more facts

The Boston Courier learns that tho Sofun.
tary agreement made by the trustees of the
Vermont Central Railroad, TO surrender the
management TO the Canada corporation, has
fallen through, although the written convey
ance was at one time signed by Messrs.
Lee, Smith and Eldtidge. The Canada cor
poraton will therefore take legal possession
on the LIST Of April, if the arrears of rent
are not paid in the meantime. The floating
debt Of the Central, including the 6 per CT.
b onds due January, 1856, which were ORR
ginally issued in payment of the +" dividend
scrip" amounts 10 a little over $500, 900,
and the unpaid coupons and rent will soon
be about as much more, making the liabili-
ties outside Of the mortgages 8 100000.
