ambitious of getting himself into trouble
with the local authorities of States and
Territories, and newspaper controversies,
than he does Of prosecuting the war against
the Indians in his military department.
He has recently got himself into snarl
with the governor, and other authorities, Of
California, concerning quantity of arms,
ammunition, &c, which he promised to
loan the State authorities, TO be used against
the Vigilance Committee This promise he
afterwards refused to comply with, and en-
deavored to wriggle out Of by prevarica-
ton. through a communication in the Ahd
California. Gov. Johnson replies in n
letter published in the San Francisco Daily
Herald, of Oct. 18th, in which he holds
the General square up TO the work, virtu.
ally accusing him with palpahle aud down

says the Vicksburg Whg that the skies are bright
and frightening, and that bold, manly and concen
trated movement on the part of the people against

Of papers daily from every quarter of the republic,

OF public sentiment. Never since the stirring DAYS

as it is now becoming aroused in regard to the pres
DENTAL election We hazard little in saying that the
upheaying of the people within the next sixty days
in favor of Willard Fillmore will exceed that great
