The Bank Bill in the Legisla-
ture.

Notwithstanding the wholesale de-
feat that was meted out to the Bank
bill submitted to the people at the polls
last fall, the banking interest have re-
turned to the fight at the present SEES
sion Of the Legislature, and a large
portion Of the time has been consum-
ed in discussing another bank bill,
which, a cotemporary says, is 8ubStan-
TALLY the same as that voted down by
the people last fall.
Brace, Kelly, and others of the
Black Republican money kings OF the
Legislature, are disposed to treat the
people with a bank bill as the British
once did the Chinese with opium
force it down them whether they like
it or not.--O. Democrat.

Later From California and Mic
aTagua----ATriVaI Of the Hill
York. March %.

New YORK, March 2S.
The steamer Illinois, from Aspin.
wall, arrived about s O'Clock this NOR.
ming, with California dates to the 9Th
inst, and nearly 81, 200, 900 in specie.
She connected at the Isthmus with
the Golden cute. The latter passed,
March 10, off Cape Cornuts, the
steamer Sonora, bound up.
The steamer Panama, from San
Juan, had arrived at Panama with
1875 deserters from Gen. Walkers
forces, in a most destitute condition.
Their passage to the United States
was paid by the Costa Rican Govern.
ment. One hundred of them left in
the Grenada for New Orleans, and
the remainder arc among the passen-
gers ofthe Illinois.
There is nothing later from Gen.
Walkers position.
The Costa Rican papers state that
5000 more troops are TO be added to
the allied forces.
Gen. Carras would march with
1900 men upon Rivas, and 1000 men
would march against San Juan Del
Sur, the intention being to surround
Walkers position with six thousand
men.
The condition of Walker was uni
versally considered very desperate.
The Illinois left ASpinwall on the
evening of the 10Th inst.
The principal consignees other gold
are: Drexel & Co., 5000, 900; Wells,
IL Co., $2OO,O0O; Duncan, Sherman
& Co., S120,000.
The latest dates from Bogota state
that the propositions of Mr.. Morse,
our Special ENJOYS were under Sc
cret consideration, and there seemed
to be but little chance OF an amicable
arrangement.
The tone of the press and the ma
jority in Congress evinced the bitter
opposition,
The publication in FL Tampa of
purported to be Mr.. Morse's inStruc.
tons had created great excitement on
the Isthmus.
Some deserteyS from Walker report
that his troops have unanimously re-
to leave Rivas to fight, but are
willing to defend their position.
The receipts from the mines were
owing to heavy floods through
out the State.
Edward MCGOWAN, exiled from
California by the Vigilance Commit
tee, had returned to Sacramento and
demanded a trial.
A resolution to fix Sacramento for
the place of holding the Trial, under a
debate, and a special election for Sen
ator from San Francisco, resulted in
the success of the Vigilence Commit
tee.
The Supreme Court of California
had decided that the Legislature has
no authority to appropriate money to
pay the interest Of the State debt, and
that the Court will enjoine any at
to levy a tax for that purpose.
The Senate passed a resolution de-
claring that the honor Of the State re-
quires the payment Of the State debt.
A resolution to submit the proposition
to the people was lost.
Mr.. Bates, late State Treasurer, had
been indicted for felony, and the trial
commenced the day the steamer left.
The deficiency in his account amounts
to $4,000.
Estelle, the keeper of the State
Prison, had been reported by the
Legislative Committee as unworthy
Of office, in consequence OF various
gross misdemeanOrs.

The Kansas Policy Of the New
Administration.

AN
The editor of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer thus writes to his paper from
Washington in regard to the Kansas
policy Of the new Administration
He says:
The Cabinet yesterday resolved to
send a Southern man to Kansas and a
Northern man to Nebraska.
The reason is this: A Northern
man in Kansas is surrounded with
suspicious to start with 10y the domi-
nant party there. To gain their con-
fdence, he has to say and do things
which destroys the confidence OF the
other party, and between the two he
fails. THIS has been the history OF
.hree Northern Governors within two
years. The policy is to be reversed.
There is not a man in the Cabinet who
desires Kansas to be a slave State
They think it would be rulnous to the
Democratic party North, without
which party the South would be at
the mercy Of tho Abolitionists.

Pulpit Poliucs----A Sensible Let

In a long while, We have not read
as sensible an article on the subject
of pulpit politics, as the following ex.
tract from the letter of a methodist
minister, recently published in the
Quincy (Ill.) Herald. Mr.. BARGER
had been attacked through the papers,
Republican of course, for not preach
ing against the iniQuity of slavery
Just read his reply in v~indication OF
his silence. To US the reply seems
conclusive:

that last winter, young man named Charles T.
sage, about 19years of age, was missing from HIS
nome IN Cromwell, near Middletown, in this
state ) and that an Irishman named Patrick Nu-
Srnt was arrested on a charge Of numbering the
youth, and putting his body under the ice in the
CONNECTICUT river
In few months Afterwards a body was found
IN the river without a head. This body was be-
lleved TO be that Of the missing boy from several
marks upon il. a. well from a portion Of the
clothing Soon afterwards the lining of an over
49,, WIS found answering to the description OF
that worn ~ the missing person.
some months elapsed when a sailor named
benson came to Cornwell and directly charged
Nngent, the lrishman, with the murder. He
SAID he saw the deed done, and assisted Nugept
IN putting the corpse under a haymow. He de-
Scribed accurately the lads appearance hi.

murder, and that he had come 10 CornweIl err

whose time OF trial was fixed for the present

Thus matters have rested until within a few
weeks, when the cousin Of the missing bow liv-
ing IN lthica, y. ", received an ANONYMOUS let
ter from the interior of Pennsyva MIA which he
showed TO ms father, a Mr.. Williams. The let
ter was answered, when another letter was re-
