IMPORTANT LIE TRIrE.

New YoRK, Aug 81.
The Correspondent of the Herald
states that Hon. William J.. Yancey
OF Alabama, has written for publication
letter in Which he charges Mr.. Pryor,
Editor Of tho Richmond South, with having
betrayed the Southern Disunion Party and
relates certain conditions with regard to the
proposed disunion. 1t appears that dis
union league was formed. of which Mr..
Pryor was member. The under
standing was that the League should ar-
point commission to negotiate certain ar
rangements with England in the way of
Protectorate, Free Trade, &C., &C., and after
pcrfecting OF these arrangements, Disunion
was Immediately to follow. The part assign
ed in the programme to Mr.. Pryor was, to
mako at first hypocritical show of prefer
encc for tho North and after little lodging,
to carry Virginia in favor of the Dsunon
project.

FROM CALIFORNIA.

NEW YORK, Aug. -
The steam ship Moses Taylor from Aspin-
wall 10Th, by Key West, with the California
mails of August 9TH, and nearly million
and half in specie, arrived ut 3 o'clock this
p. NJ. She left the L. S. Brig Dolphin ut
Key West, who reported having captured
SLAYER under American colors and sent her
into Charleston.
But little is said about Frazer river. The
steamer Pacific which left San Francisco
for Victoria took but few passengers. The
health of San Francisco was never better
Business is improving.
Dates from Oregon are OF July 2ith.
The State Government was organized at
Salem on the Sth when John Whitaker, Gov
ernor elect, took the oath of Office. There is
nothing further conccr ming the Indian war.
New YORK, Aug. 80.

FROM WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 81

AsIIINGToN, Aug. IT.
The business which moro particularly oc-
cupies the attention Of the Administration
just now, pertains to our foreign relations,
prominently including those with the Central
American States and Mexico. Notwithstand-
ing that Gen. Jcrez has given assurance that
he is authorized to make such explanations
concerning the course of Nicaragua as will
be satisfactory to our Government, as pre-
liminary to his reception to treat on the
pending matters between this and that Re-
public, he has failed, thus far, to remove the
obstacles to his reception in II diplomatic ca-
pacity.

1t is idle to waste words with men who
pretend that the Republican party is dying
party. 1t showed its strength on the fourth
day of November, 1856, by casting one and a
third million of votes, and not a morning
sun has risen since that has not found that
party stronger. The Hon. John G. Breckin-
ridge, Vice President of the United States,
knew we'll what he was saying when he
affirmed the other day, "The Republican
party is the strongest organization in the
Union, unless the Democratic party is
stronger. 1t is the only great Hring ritai
organization that has withstood or can with
stand the Democratic party. 1t is a power
full, compact, hopeful organization. "
Such is the fact, and every discerning man
