LATE FROM CALIFORNIA.

The "!Star Of The ITcst," from Aspinwall
on the 18th, with one million and half in
specie, has arrived.
The news from California is unimportant.
The crops in the southern part of the State
were suffering seriously from drouth Mon
cy matters were inactive; mining brisk,
and largely increasing.
OREGoN.-The Hon. Joseph Lane has
been Reelected to Congress by decreased
majority.
Observation-Disclosures in this country
an, in an unsettled condition. Rivas re-
fuses to act in concert with the Allied Gen
erals. A collision was expected between
the Lconcsc and Chamoristas, which it was
thought would prove favorable for Walker,
if the latter should again go to Nicaragua.
Passengers by the steamer Star of the
West, from Greytown, report that two YES
sells are cruising off Punta Arenas, from
California, with GEO men, arms, provisions,
etc, for Gen. Walker.

roREIeN NEWS.

The steamer America has arrived from
Liverpool with dates to the 4th. The cot
ton market generally was unchanged al
though some descriptions had slightly adj
Yanced.
The revolutionary movements still con-
tinue in Naples. The insurgents had liber-
ated three hundred prisoners Many new
arrests had been made, and an insurgent
steamer had been captured.
The rebellion in India against British
authority has become so serious az to cause
an important change in the plan for con-
Quoting the military operations against
China. No British troops can be spared
from India for the purpose ofthe war against
China, and large force from England is
Immediately to be dispatched to the south
ern British outposts in India.
The serious rcvolts in India are not likely
to shake the deeply founded frabic of
British power. They are said to have
arisen from an apprehension on the part of
the natives that their religion was to be
Oyerthrown.

AN ATROCIoUS AFFAIR.

A Pittsburg paper mentions the arrest of
the pilot and engineer of steamboat for
an attempt to sink rival boat on the 4th
inst. It appears that jealousy has for
some time existed between two ferry
companies in that vicinity, which, on the
occasion mentioned, took this very perilous
mode of exhibition. The Pittsburg paper
thus describes the scene:
The Committee of Arrangements Of the
Liberty street Methodist Episcopal Sabbath
School, chartered the "Black Hawk" to
convey the scholars, teachers and parents to
Mixes Rock, on the Fourth of July
While the Black Hawk was coming up the
river, opposite Manchester, the Patrick
Henry left her landing at Saw Mill Run,
and putting out to the middle of the river,
stopped her engines and awaited the
approach of the Black Hawk, to within
about fifty yards. She then started and
came in collision with the Black Hawk, her
apron breaking down the guards. Several
women tainted, the children screamed; and
the male portion Of the passengers were
blanched with fear. People on both sides
of the river shouted, and from their actions
it was apparent that they anticipated fearful
consequences. Not less than five hundred
persons were on board the Black Hawk.
The Patrick Henry approached the other
boat a second time, and again struck her
guards with the apron, and from the
maneuvering it was thought that the design
was to sink the Black Hawk. The state of
affairs was now fearful. It was feared that
some Of the children would leap overheard
from fright. The boat was deeply laden,
while the Patrick Henry had but two
passengers, and is said to have left her
landing upon the approach Of the Black
Hawk without waiting for teams. A third
time she approached the other boat; and as
it now seemed clearly apparent that the
design was to sink the Black Hawk,
endangering the lives of all on board, several
gentlemen, growing desperate under the
circumstances, seized pieces of stone coal.
One was hurled at the pilot, striking the
sash of the window, and was quickly
followed by others. At this demonstration
the pilot put back, and Offered no further
interruption.

A SAD PICTURE.

A late number of the New York Tribune
has the following sixteen murders have
been pepetrated in this city since the first
of April, about which time the whole army
of grog- sellers babe defiance to any legal
interference with their desolating traffic.
There have been at least twice sixteen at
tempts to murder, besides violent assaults
and rum hole fights without precedent. Ten
thousand hardened and hopeless female
outcasts swarm the streets at night; two
thousand children, under the guise of ped
lers, from the ages of ten to sixteen, pene-
trate every public building, store and Office
in the city, to beg, steal, spy for burglars,
and on their own account practise those
vices which cannot be named in respecta-
BILE language five thousand great and small
gamblers prey upon the credulous and the
infatuated; standing all day at the doors of
their dens in Broadway, as well known in
person and profession as the mayor HIM
self ten thousand lazy, drunken, thieving
short boys, swill-boys, killers, roughs, and
rowdies Of other names lounge on the rum
cursed corners of the streets, making day
disgusting, night hideoris, and travel dan
gerous to all who can be suspected of hav
ing responsibility or money; thousands of
emigrant swindlers, mock auctioneers. lot
terry dealers, hackers, pickpockets,
hall thieves, burglars, wharf-rats, area
sneaks, pimps, and vampires, practise
their knaveries as openly and with as little
fear of punishment as though they were
engaged in the most virtuous and legiti-
mate of human pursuits. On every hand we
have vice, and crime, and splendor; crime,
vice, rum, and beggary." What a picture.

SOUTHERN BOOK-BUYERs.-The New
York Day Book has sounded the alarm,
and is warning the south against the buy
ing of a new work which has been COM
menced by Appleton & Co., under the title
of the "American Encyclopedia" edited by
Geo. Ripley and Chas. A. Dana, two of the
editors of the New York Tribune. The en-
ployment of these men by the Appletons has
been concealedfro the public. and another
abolition trick is about to be played on the
south by inducing our citizens to subscribe
and pay for work, purporting to be ma
tional in its character, but which is edited
by two of the greatest political Williams that
ever degraded saHctum or penned libel.
They cannot, if they would, do justice to
the south, and while we warn our readers
against subscribing for, or in any way aid
ing in the sale of the Encyclopedia Amcri-
cana, got up by the Appletons under the
supervision of the editors of the Tribune,
we invoke the press of the south to set
their united faces against it and strangle it
in its infancy. Ltt not its polluted pages
be touched by the finger of Southern man,
unless he wishes to pay men for abusing
himself and seeking the ruin of his country
and Observation-Disclosures Tribune.
