ahination Of the facts and copies from the re-
cords thersin contained justify Us in announc-
ing that their pu5ljcaiioc will deveore some
transactions connected with Col. Frpmont's f.
nanca and military operations in California of
tbe most astounding character. Heretofore
there has been 4 veh Of rouance--a sort of
charm-thrown around these transactions,
whereby they have evaded putlie scrutiny and
while We have been oi.opiniou rhat, under the

there were covered UP sPpculatioHs and pecuIa-
tians of large and small degree, yet we confess
we bad no adequate conception Of what seems
no,v likely to be untolded in the foil light of

Heretofore we have been compelledto grope
in the dark, having only isolated facts from
which We might draw inisrencvs Of preSump-
lions, and, therefore, however we'll grounded
they might have been, still there was room for
doubt But in these reports the connecting cir
cumstapces and facts all appear, like the links
III a chain. They follow each other, and bring
the mind irresistaby to a conclusion fatal to
Fremont.
