to be recognized at . moments notice. The
committees were composed Of the principal
citizens Of each town, and their proceedings
were characterized by gravity and delibera-
ton. Each criminal had jury trial and wa
allowed counsel. It now appears that, in the
opinion Of the pioneers, the time has come
when the people of the State can no longer
look to the courts for justice, and they have
again been obliged to return to first principles,
and take the law into their hands.
At this distance the alternative seems hor-
rible one; but is not the provocation strong?
We shall look anxiously for the next news
from California, and sincerely hope that the
dreadful scenes of '51-2 will not be re-enacted.

BAD News FROM Observation-Disclosures
Of an alarming character was received yester-
day from San Francisco, by way of New Or
leans. The telegraphic accounts are meagre,
but every dot is stained with blood. 1t appears
that Mr.. James King of William has been shot
BY man of the name Of Casey-that the Vigi-
lance Committee has been revived-that they
have taken Casey and Charles Cora in custo-
dy, and that the execution Of these men was
hourly expected.
Mr.. King was native Of Maryland. He
went to California and established a banking
house. He afterwards entered the house of
Adams & Co. He then left tn EN- and resumed
the banking business, which he gave up to en-
ter the fields Of politics and journalism. He
established daily Incompatible Ecening Bull
lasn--which advocated the election of DR.. Gwin
to the United States Senate, and unsparingly
dashed the Broderick school Of politicians, with
which the man Casey was affiliated. Mr.. King
exposed the frauds and corruption in San
Francisco politics, business and society, with
80 much holiness that his friends expected
that he would be murdered. The immediate
cause of his death is alleged to have been
statement made by him that Casey had been an
inmate Of the Sing Sing State prison. The man
Cora, who shot General Richardson, the Unit.
ed States Marshal, was tried on the capital
charge, but the jury did not agree, and it
seemed probable that he would escape punish
ment.
These two murders Of prominent citizens
aroused the Vigilance Committee, which was
formed in 1s51-'52 for the purpose of purify
ing the State Of horde of ruffians who had
gathered in California from all parts of the
world. The committees were formed all over
the state. Several persons we're tried and

very propaganda" was welcomed By the meet
ing e. if he had hit the nail upon the head
and driven it home ct . single blow.
We understand that the Pennsylvania dele
cation are in favor Of Judge Mclean as their
nominee-that the men from the New Eng
land States, including several members Of
Con gress, are unanimously for Fremont and
Banks az the ticket, as are also the delegates
Of the great West, except, perhaps, portion
of the Ohio delegation. In this connection
we may say that there was calm and solid
expression upon the face Of alive Oak
George" indicating that his mind lie made up
for q splendid coup ditat, and that he knows all
about it and is satisfied. Perhaps it may be
developed in the nomination of Fremont and
Banks PROFESSIONALLY the brethren feel the
responsibility of the crisis, and are big with
the fate of Rome" We never saw anything so
clearly expressed upon every face, from the
latest to the leanest man in the crowd. A
collection Of old cardinals. convened for the
purpose of electing successor to St Peter,
could not wear more serious or impressive
cast Of countenance, in the mass or in detail.
This peculiar feature of this Convention,
more than anything else, satisfies Us that they
contemplate movement which win astonish
the spoils democracy and "make Rome howl"
But whether they may do this thing, that
thing, or nothing at at all, the drift Of the
popular anti-Pierce and Forney sentiment of
the North has very clearly indicated that there
is but one course for the opposition forces
fusion; and but one nan for the crisis-Fre-
mont. We care not what this Convention, or
the Philadelphia Convention, or both together,
may do; but their orly chance for good fight
is fusion and Fremont.
For months before the Cincinnati Conven-
ton it was plain enough to see that the
masses of the democratic party, Disguised with
the niger driving and filibustering follies and
paltry tricks of she Pierce dynasty, were in
favor of taking the safe old back track with
MIR. Buchanan. He stands pledged, however,
to the Pierce policy out-and-out. The oppoai-
ton forces, therefore, have but to rally against
this Pierce administration. in order to give
the terrified democracy such shaking in their
shoes as they have not experienced since 1840
Popular opinion has indicated the man for the
crisis. We await the results of these June
Conventions.
