SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 81.
The residence Of MIR. Hosmer, of the firm
of Loud g. Hosmer, on Dupont street, near
Ja744s=--s-Y vas entered during yesterday and
robbed of basket containing five hundred
dollars worth of silver plate, which had
been left on a sideboard, in the front apart
ment of the basement. At the time the
robbery was committed there were two SER
wants in kitchen adjoining.
On Friday night, a commission merchant
in this city attempted his life by taking
laudnum. The fact was discovered immedi-
ately after the dose was taken, and by Wig
orous and skillful measures the stomach was
relieved. The patient, who at that time was
laboring under mental alteration, has now
recovered from the effects Of the poison, and
looks back upon his folly with surprise and
shame.

Or YANKEE JIaI's.-By the Placer C0ur
ier, we learn of the caving in of tunnel at
Volcano Canon, by which accident two men,
Mr.. Gardner and his partner were buried
in an avalanche of dirt and stones. They
were both dug out, comparatively uniDjured.
although Mr.. Gardner was thirty hours in
his unpleasant predicament, and his partner
was buried about six hours.
A man was arrested on Friday the 22d
ult suspected Of having robbed the sluices
of Kezer e. Co. lie was examined and dis.
charged.
Some miners whose claim is in the bowels
of the earth, were driven out of their drift
by robbers, who threw stones down the shaft
and when the miners emerged from the tun-
mel shot at them. After having scared the
miners away, the robbers entered and plum
dered the sluices. The Courier says that
several such dastardly acts have been com.
mitted in the vicinity Of Yankee Jim's
recently.

ronage. /. evidently believes that power
cannot err, and no matter what principles
Democracy may profess, they must be aban
doned at the beck of power, or federal PEN
sioners and buffoons are turned upon them
with mobocracy engines of destruction. 1t
misquotes what Mr.. Broderick said concern
ing his support Of Mr.. Buchanan, and says
that he did not succeed in sending dele
gates to the National Convention to vote for
him there" The Democracy know very
we'll that our delegates to the National con-
vention were instructed to vote for Mr.. Bu-
chanan. Why they did not. they have since
explained. Those in attendance at the State
Convention will remember that Mr. Brod-
erick favored such instructions, and that
they were opposed by these same gentlemen
who now profese so much reverence for Mr.
Buchanan. Some Of them were then FEEDER
oil Office holders under Mr.. Pierce, and it
was more than their unprincipled heads
were worth to have the vote of the State
cast for Mr. Buchanan, whilst Mr.. Pierce
held the appointing power!
1t was the same Democratic Legislature
that chose our Senators now in Congress
That Legislature was nominated and elected
after the doctrine Of popular sovereignty en-
braced in the Cincinnati platform had been
endorsed by the Democracy and people of
California. So long as our delegation in
Congress shall adhere to that doctrine, re-
affirmed by the Democracy in July last, they
will receive the cordial supper. of the De-
mocracy Of California. If they abandon
those doctrines they must expect the De-
mocracy to spurn them. SO far as he ad-
here to the doctrines embodied in the Demo-
cratic platform, we shall endeavor to sustain
them. Those who now coudemn Mr.. Brod-
erick for adhering to the Democratic princi-
pie Of popular sovereignty, are traitors to
the Democracy of the State and nation. and
will find it quite as difficult to compel the
Democracy to endorse their unprincipled
course, as they did to prevent the Democra-
cy of the State from declaring in favor of
Mr.. Buchanan when they were under the
whip and spur of President Pierce.

MAN SHOT AT YANKEE HILL.--We learn.
ed yesterday from Mr. Howard Carey that
man named VIM Fuller was shot on Sun
day at Yankee Hill near Spanishtown. He
was uniformed of the persons name who
committed the deed, and of the cause of the
shooting. The person who came here for
physician stated that Fuller was badly
wounded in the right side. DR.. Vrooman
went to the wounded mans relief.
p. Since the above was put in type VIC
learn from DIR. Vrooman that one Jake But

Fuller is dangerously wounded in the left

FIGHrING BoATMEN.--Two boatmen in
San Francisco. named Barber and Baker had
a fight the other day in which the former
was victorious. The latter then sent his op-
ponent challenge to mortal combat with
knives or pistols, but Barber declined. They
wsre both arrested and Barber was fined ten
dollars. This item is not very interesting,
but 1t shows very conclusively that some
boatmen will fight, and that when they do
fight they have to pay for it.

Finally.

The State Journal, has spunkcd up courage
to show its hand on the Kanzas question,
and its contempt for Lindley Murray as fol-
lows:
Gas Democrats, We are prepared to sus.
tain the administration we aided to place in
power, until we find that it has violated some
principle Of the party to which it rs we'll as
ourselves, has pledged allegiance"
In our estimation, the administration, il
it favors the Lccompton constitution, VIC.
lates three principles which it was pledged
to support. lst. BY aiding to establish that
constitution for Kansas, it violates the Dem.
ocratic doctrine of non intervention.
end. 1t violates the last section of the
Kansas Nebraska Act, which declares that
the people of that Territory may form their
own institutions subject only to the consti-
tuition of the United States The Lecompton
constitution does not permit the people to
form any institution, without first approving
that instrument.
Sd. Should the President attach his sig
nature to the act of acceptance. thereby
making the unchangable provisions of the
Lecompton Constitution binding upon Kan
sas, he violates the Constitution of the U. S.
which guarantees to every State a republi-
can form of government. and which he has
solemnly sworn to support,
We agree with the Journal that, Mr.. Bu-
chanan is the highest dignitary on earth,
but las Democrats" we can sustain no Pres.
ident. Prince or Potentate, in violating 1.-THE
vital principle of our free institutions" and
the constitution and laws of his country. II
tho majority cannot rule in Kansas, they
are despioable towards and cringng slaves
if they do not fight. We would say the same
was the Topeka Constitution being consid'
ed under similar circumstance. Those who
would abandon essential liberty for tempo
rary safety, are unworthy of either liberty
or safety. The majority must rule. Popu-
lar sovereignty must and will be maintained.
