The Opium MoncpolY.

The China Mail, of late date, says
Another and very curious case connected
with the Opium Ordinance came on this day,
before the chief magistrate. Chun -tai-kwong,
the farmer of the opium privilege, summoned
Mr.. Hoey, of the Victoria Hotel. for breach
of the provisions of the ordinance. The com
plainant's counsel stated that the defendant
claimed TO exercise the privilege of preparing
and selling prepared opium, under license
from tue complainant The complainant's
case was that the license was void, the defen-
dent having observed neither the regulations
of the Government nor of the Rionopolist al
so, that the license had been obtained by the
defendant on representations which made the
grant void on equitable grounds; and lastly.
that the license had been revoked. The evil
dence of the complainant taken. in sup
port of his case, which occupied the court un-
til its rising wheu the case was adjourned till
tomorrow. One valuable fact brought out
was that the monopolist, who paid only S33.
600 for his privilege. has already been offered
20. GOO for that portion of it which relates to
the expectation Of opium"

Missouri Tornado.

Mr.. Hand, who witnessed the approach of
a recen. whiriwind in Lexington and Caldwell
couuties, Mo-, describes it as being accom-
pauied by cloud which resemUled black

it approached the air was filled with flying
limbs, leaves and dust. Mr.. Hands wagon
lying IN the track of the tempest, was seen
to rise from the earth and sail slcng the air

the log house, in which the spectator of this
strange phenomenon was standing, was en-
veloped III complete darkness 10 the bosom of
the tempest. There we're eighteen persons
in it, whose cries and screams of terror,
mingled with the rush of the storm and the
crash of the falling timbers, were fearful to
hear. The house was torn to pieces down TO
the third round of logs from the bottom, and
yet, strange 10 say, OF ali those within its
walls not one was dangerously hurt though
several were bruised more or less. After the
cloud had passed, the flying wagon was found
500 yards from the spot where it had been
first caught up, and the kitchen skillet was
picked up sixty yards fium the house The
storm accompanied by 4 heavy fail of
raiu, which dcluged low fields, forced creeks
out of their banks, aud swept away bridges.

The Mineral Wealth of Sonora

Major Steen has given the editors of the
Santa Fe Gazette very Interesting account
of the mineral wealth Of Sonora. He ex
presses the opinion that Sonora is far more
prolific of gold and silver than California, and
if territory of The United States, would yield
many millions annually He says he has seen
siuge Jumps of gold taken from the mines
there worth from $4,000 to 5000, He like
wise states that he had seen cord of silver
in bars, and all mined without machinery.
There is strong desire on the part of the ncn
of property in Sonora to declare the State in
dependent, and then, a lu Texas, to annex it
to the UGited States There are men there
who would give million of dollars for the
accomplishment of such an end. Under Mex
ican rule with revolution the main element of
society; their property is mparatively worth
less. Under the protecting care of our system
of jurisprudence and civil government, it
would be invaluable.

Opposition State Convention.

The Erie Constitution, decidedly the abiest
Republican paper in North Pennsy lvania,
whose editor is of the most lnhucutial
of his party is out in strong terms against
the propose Upion State Convention, TO
semble at Harrisburg Oh the l4th, OF next
month. After announcing the project. aud
the nleaus by which it was obtained, it uses
the following language: For one We enter
our protest III advance against any afhliation,
coalition, union or fusion with such political
renegades aud traitors as Swope aud Flanu-
gan. Thrice have the treemen OF the State
struck hands with them, aud thrice they have
been betrayed. If they honestly desire
union Of all the opponents OF the Admins
tration iu the present campaign, they ought,
in view of th" past, 10 have the prudence to
keep their names from any pobllshed calls.
The Republicans can set it down an estab-
lished fact that Sanderscn Flauuigan Swope
faction will never keep faith IN any political
unit for association with who are gov
ernedby honest motives III political action.
They have cheated US in three campaigns,
and it remains to be seen whether Eepubii-
cars will allow themselves again to be gullcd
by such tricksters.
I'VE are willing to unite with all honest
cooperate to overthrow the present National
Administration; but We are not willing to
join hands or associate with veLal leaders
who make show of friendship only to be-
tray. The leading politicians may make
what arrangements they please in this matter ;,
but if they in any way ignore the cardinal
principles of Republicanism, or if they ex
| punge from the flag the motto Of No morc
Slave Statcs,' Ghey will deserve and receive
defeat We march to the battle under no
mongrel flag They will fnd thousands OF
staunch and true treemen in the North AMI
West who will repudiate any evasive, un-
meaning platform, no matter who the candi-
dates are, We warn the Republicans to be-
| ware of the scheme
We imagine the tricksters who have en-
deavored to take the lead of opposition to the
| Democratic party, will find after all, that
their self glorifed patriotism will not produce
| the exact effect they Designed. That "glori-
GUS victory" some Of their papers claim, will
not be won with quite as much ease as they
