GIVE invite the attention ofour readers to
the following article from the National Intelli-
gencer, Southern paper, and one of the sages2
and most conservative sheets in the Union:
THE PROCLAMATION.
The Government paper of Tuesday contain
ed an Executive Proclamation which, for the
information of our readers, we transfer to our
columns Following on the heels Of his recent
special message to Congress on the same sub
ject, it is evidence that the President antici-
pates something like civil war in the land of
Wanted "squatter sovereignty" and is prepar-
ing to meet the crisis. 1t is proof, also of an
other thing, which perhaps the President does
not discern so clearly; and that is the political
+, error which has brought these troubles upon
him and upon the country Surely never has
any false step Of Government in our brief his
tory of any free country, been so fruitful of
eevil-as the uncalled-for Repeal of the Mis-
souri, Compromise. And now the President is
endeavoring, with the best intentions no doubt,
to avert one Of its disastrous consequences by
a Proclamation. What a sight, in this free
Republican country, TO behold an Executive
Proclamation forbidding civil war! We most
devoutly hope it may have the effect; but we
fear that men who are aiming rifles and revol-
vers at each others fraternal breasts, will be
little disposed to heed the Presidents admoni-
tons. And then should he find it necessary
to interpose the military power of the General
Government-which must be the next step
what state of things shall we not then pre-
sent to the world! Is it not enough to make
angels weep to see so happy. harmonious,
peaceful country-so blessed in every ele-
mcnt of national domestic happiness as was
this only two short years ago-spddenly, by
one mad and perverse act converted into an
universal arena Of diseord and of threatened
civil commotion?

SCENE on THE SAN JOSE RoAD-A STAGE
COACH STOPPED AND THE PASSENGERS
SEARcHED.-The Passengers by the stage
coach from San Jose, last evening, were
surprised if not alarmed, when within ten
miles of the city, by the sudden appearance
of party Of men in the road, who ordered
the driver to pull up, so that they might
take view of the insiders One or two of
the passengers evidently supposed they were
to be robbed and murdered by highwaymen,
and recalling, probably, the stories they
had heard of similar adventures in the in
terror of the State, were making up their
minds for a g brush,' but the supposed rob-
bers turned out TO be no other than police
officers from San Francisco, sent to intercept
fugitive from justice, supposed to be on his
way from San Jose. The passengers were
ten in number, aud all males but one. The
men submitted themselves to the inspection
of the officers, but the person sought for
could not be found.-S. +. Globe.

judgment against Palmer, Cook & Co
for SI0i, 900.

Mr.. Naglee, the receiver Of Adams & Co,
obtained yesterday judgment against Pal
mer, Cook Co. for Sl0l ,0e0. despite the
hard fighting of the counsel OF that firm and
the desperate attempt made to gain time and
further profit by the laws delay. The Bul-
ietin, governed by its hatred of the Receiv-
er, did not even inform its readers Of the
judgment, and will no doubt wait before it
does SO, to add TO it that other interesting
information that Stanley is sueing for fee

We predict that this miscalled banking
firm of Palmer, Cook 4 Co. will appeal this
Judgment to the Supreme Court, and thus
still further battle the creditors. Their use
ful auxiliary, the Bulletin, will cover up
their defeat, no doubt, with the usual daily
attacks upon the Receiver. But the tine is

EXPLOSION OF A COOKING SrovE.-A
cooking stove in the second story of No. Isl
Varick street, New York city, exploded
about 9 o'clock Wednesday morning, and
knocked ou: the three front windows. The
stove had not been used all summer until 6
o'clock yesterday morning, when fire was
kindled in it. The only way in which the
explosion could be accounted for was that a
son of Mrs Cassidy, belonging to a target
company, had careiessly few days back
stored 6 few blank cartridges in the oven of
the stove The paper wrappers of these e1-
plosive articles were found among the bro
ken metal on the aoor. 1t appeared strange,
however, that they did not sooner explode.
The fire was lighted at six, and the accident
did not occur till 9 o'clock. No person hap
pened 10 be in the room at the time.

PRESERVING FLOwERs.--Grasses,

PRESERVING FLowfRs .--Grasses,
moses, ferns, and dry-leaved plants Of
all kinds, are the easiest of manage
ment, and these preserve their beauty
longest Ferns are especially beauti-
full, and, if dried quickly, retain their
freshness for ten Years, looking then,
if carefully kept, as gay as when gath
cred from the hedge row or the shady
coppicc. Grasses scarcely change in
dying, and their elegant silvery and
purple panicles form most beautifl OBJ
jects, il carefully mounted. Sea weeds
and succulent plants may be rapidly
dried by placing them between some
folds of dry linen or blotiing paper,
and applying hot iron. They are BY
this method prepared almost ins:anta-
neously, and lose not the slightest
trace of their original color.

THE CoNsPIRAcY CAsE.-The trial of
Judge Heslep is still in progress in San
Francisco. From the evidence that has been
elected in the course of the, we should judge
that the accused " enjoyed" most unenvi-
able reputation Speaking of Heslep the
State Journal says:
"Quirk, Cannon, and Snap are nowhere.
Augustus NJ. Heslep beats them to pieces
He is the most indefatigablo man to get up
conspiracy and libel cases we ever heard of.
He is as fond Of them as a Fin is of assafteti-
da, or an Esquimaux of blubber. Like
Nav woIm, & he likes to be despised," )" and
50 long he can figure in a court of law,
he does not mind being himself abused to
any imaginable extent. He is the hero Of
heavy story, and he seems determined that
every body shall know it.
