The California newspapers received by the last
steamer contain advices from Oregon to the 18th Of
August. They mention the meeting Of the Consti-
tutonal Convention at Salem, but beyond the choice
of a Mr. Deadly as President they are able 10 give
no account of the proceedings. We published yes
terdsy a letter dated Salem, Oregon Territory,
Aug 90, containing some remarkable statements as
to what had happened in that Convention. This
letter does not come from any regular correspond
emit of ours, though it processes to have been writ
ten at the requestof one of them. The newspapers
are referred to for further details, "if they are
published before the mail steamer leaves for Cal
" iforpia;" but those newspapers have not come to
hand, nor do We find in any Of our cotemporaries
sny information from Oregon 90 late as the 10Th of
August.
Our correspondent, after mentioning that the
Convention organized by the election as Presdenr
Of Pro-Slavery Democrat [but without stating
his nancy, proceeds to add that before the Con-
yention had been in session for two hours, but not
till after some warm speeches had been made,
resolution was introduced of which the purport
WA, 10 prohibit the discussion, on the floor Of the
Convention, of the question of Slavery 1t would
seem from the statement Of our correspondent thu:
this was a movement on the Anti.Slavery side.
At all events he represents this motion as having
produced a great excitement among the Pro-
Slavery men, ending in the flight from the hall of
the more timid or peaceable, and general free
fight among those who remained. Dageers were
drawn. numerous shots were fired, one member
was severely stabbed, two others slightly wounded,
and several injured by jumping from the windows,
ard in the pressure of the crowd attempting to
force its way out By narrow staircase. The
feht and riot would seem still to have continued

MONETARY AFFAIRS IN ST. LOUIS.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct b, p. N.
meeting was held yesterday ct the Merchants
Exchange to consider the currency question. Mr..
Henry Bank Commissioner Of Illinois, made state
uent of the condition of the banks Of that State which
was generally regarded as satisfactory. The Commit
tee appointed to report the subject convened in the
afternoon, but adjourned without coming to definite
conclusion The vote on receiving the currency at par
stood at tie previous to the adjournment. resolu-
ton was passed to petition the Legislature to issue no
more bonds at present, and to create sinking fund
for the payment of the interest on those already issued
Another meeting was held at the Exchange to-day.
The suspension of Lucas & Co. created no excite
ment as their sssets are known to be ten times greater
than their liabilities.
There Is a run to-day upon the Bank Of Missouri,
and the Boatmen's and Germans Savings Institutions.
There are no evidences Of suspension yet The regu-
lar banks remain strong.
A. the meeting at the Merchants Exchange to-day,
resolution to receive and pay out the currency at par
was adopted by an overwhelming vote.

innocent peculiarites lead them to rob and shoot
Spanish Americans, are impstienty waiting to hear
the signal which shall call them to the field. The
Tennessee, they say, left loaded with Minnie rides

when those three thousand rndhilers leave for the
San Juan River under the command of the sciOns
of the chiyaric South. Col. Frank Anderson was
passenger on the Tennessee; he returned the last
