company carries with ttheir light battery. con- sisting of four six pounders and four caissons, but will not be mounted until they reach Fort Leavenworth, which will be about the 2Oth of May. Leaving that post, they expect to travel fifteen miles per day. and reach Utah sometime during the month of July. Both officers and men are in good health and spirits, and anxious to proceed to some new field of operations.- should occasion require, they will doubtless give good account of themselves"
 The following decision will seriously affect the claim of Fremont to the Mariposa mines.
 THE OWNERSHIP OF GOLD MINES.
 "The supreme court of California in 1853 decided that the state and not the federal gov ernment was the owner of all the mines of gold and silver within the limits of the State. That decision has now been reversed by the opinion of the supreme court rendered on the 18th ultimo, in the case of Boggs Oessee of Col. Ere mont) against the Mercer Mining company The judges not only say, in their opinion, that the United States own the public lands of Cali fornia, but they maintain that the holder of a United States land patent given in confirmation of Mexican grant has no greater rights than he had or would have under the NJ eXican laws: and that as Mexico never granted away to pri- vate persons, or at least dId not grant to Ava rado-the original grantee of the Fremont ranch-the title to mines of gold and silver, so Fremont is not the owner of the gold within the limits of his claim. The government alone has the original right of digging it, but the right may be transferred by express license, and also im- pliedly The practical result is that one man has as good right to dig gold as another on any land. Mines of quicksilver are placed on the same ground as gold mines. The question, it is said, will be carried up to the supreme court of the United States
 As Col. Fremont will not likely be able to raise the means to carry on another presidential campaign, the field will be left open for Bell, Giddings, Fred. Douglass and others
 A telegram from Washington Is as follows;
 "Major McRae has been ordered to rendez- you at Cincinnati and heir told himself in readi- ness to muster tl0o regiments of volunteers into service. This is an indication that the President expects to call out volunteers soon.''

 And they whose hearts are dry as summer dust,
 Burn to the socket.n
 On the day before yesterday, "Wednesday the 14th,) this whole community was thrown into consternaton and dismay, by the announc- ment that little Isaac, only son of the Hon. w. w. and Mary w. Watkins, aged years 6 months, and 23 days, had fallen into the creek which borders on this place and was drowned.
 The community en masse hurried to the scene of the disaster, only to find that little Dorcas youngest daughter of pr. J. F. and Ms S. phia Seaman, aged 3 years, ? months, and 9 days, had also found watery grave.
 Mrs. Seaman was on a visit to Mrs. Watkins whose residence is on the opposite srie of the Creek from town and about 15O yards from the Creek. These children, between whom there was a remarkable intimacy, went out to play, They were seen by lady from town approach ing the creek hand in hand, in a short time they were missed, search was instantly made and in q short time they were found lifeless on tine water Every etfor- was then made to re- yive them, but upon the brow of these innocent little chcrubs death had already placed hs sig net.

Kansas ouestion Settled.

In this mornings issue we give theconierence bill as passed by Congress for the admission of Kansas into the Confectionery of States. The country, at large, will doubtless rejoice at the settlement though it may be but temporary, of this vexed and disturbing question. It had already occupied our national councils too long, ard had produced a state of feeling that might have led at any moment to rupture of the Union.
 The bill for admission, though not such as the south had reasonably expected, will don0t- less be received and acquiesced in as the efa that could have been obtained in the l'fe- eai' corrupt state of parties at Washington city The position of the administration has been sus- tained, the validity of the Lecompton consti- tuition has been fully recognized, and the right of Kansas lying north of 36 deg. 30 mn north latitude, to admission as a slave State has been virtually acknowledged Kansas, if she comes into the Ulion at all, will come in un- der the Lecompton constitution as slaue State
 The Lecompton constitution goes back to be voted upon by the people, but the issue present. ed is not the slavery queston-it is Lot the legality of the constiution-it is not the question at issue between the north and south-it is a wholly different question, referring solely to the public lands lying within the territory, and one in the settlement of which the country can feel but little interest.
 Notwithstanding the defeciion of the Dou- gas democrats and the treachery of the southern know nothings, the administration and the na- tional democracy have gained signal triumph. them in every contest, the national democracy have again proved their devotion to their coun- try.
Arkansas true Democrat., 1858-05-11
The Last Plank Gone.


 If ever men completely stultifed themselves the know nothiug5 did t wher they indorsed the Montgomery -Crittenden substitute for the Kansas bill. The Montgomery amendment pro- vides thaI if the Lecompton constitution be re- jected then another convention ghall be called and the constitution adopteI by that convention shall be the law of the land, without further action of Congress The new constitution now reported in Kansas contains the following clause:
 ARTICLE II-ELECTIyE FRANCHISE.
 SECTION l. In all elections, nototberwjse pro- vlded for Uy this constitution, every male citizen of the United States of the age of Fl years or upward, who shall have resided in the State six months next preceding such election, and ten days III the precinct in which he may offer to vote, and every male person of foreign birth of the age of 2l years or upward, and who shall have resided in the United States one year. in this State six months, and in the precinct in which he may offer to vote ten days next pre- ceding such election. ard who shall have de- clared hs intention to become citizen of the United States coniomahly to the laws of the United States ten days preceding such election, shall be deemed qualified eector
 It will be seen that the word "white" is carefully excluded, so that negroes are allowed to vote, as well as unnaturalized foreigners. It does not even require that the foreigner shall have filed his declaration of intention to become a citizen; residence in the United States of one year, in the State six months and the yo ting precinct ten days being all that is required.
 The Lecompton-K Kansas bill required that the voters should be citizens of the United States. Had the substitute been adopted no doubt the new negro and alien suffrage clause would have been the law, and with these facts clearly be- lore them, the know nothings, or some of them. oppose the one and approve the other What n- teAaely intense Americansm! What bcanti- iul illustration of the doctrine that Americans shall rule America! True, the know nothing journals print column upon column of explana- tons, and what they hatter themselves by cal hng arguments, but beyond and behind it all, only half hidden by the semi-transparent cur tain of words, stands revealed the fact that these intense Americans are advocating free ne gro suffrage and to allow aliens to vote, without any steps towards citizenship except one years residence.
