CALIFoRNIA MAMs.-lt is stated that the
convention of representatives, of railroads
along the Southern seabOard, have agreed on
a schedule by which the California semi
monthly mail will De carried over that route
to New Orleans, and thence to California.
The time from New York to New Orleans
will be only lightweight hours, leaving n
liberal time for connections.
The Augusta Chronicle of the 18th con
tains the above paragraph. The time pro-
posed is one hour less than that now occu-
pied in running the Great Central Route, OF
which we spoke last week. If necessary
to secure an earlier transmission of the
California mails, we have no doubt the
rate of speed on the Central Route can be
so increased MS to gain ten or twelve bours
on the time proposed by the Fernandina
route.

GERMAN flor IN BALTIMORE-FREsH MA
TERlAL FOR BUHKUM SPEECHEs.-A disgrace
ful riot took place in Baltimore on Saturday
night, in Turner Hall, on Pratt street, kept
by Phillip Odenwald, and place of general
resort for the German residents of that sec
ton of the city. Two Germans getting into
quarrel, the fight became general; clubs
were freely used, and, now and then, the
crack of firearms was heard; n score Of pcO-
pie had black eyes and broken heads. Thir-
ty,eght of the rioters were arrested by the
police.
1t is common allegation that Baltimore
is one of the most disorderly cities in the
Union, and that its disorder is all Know
Nothing kind. We shall not be surprised
to hear that this German riot is also put
down as n clark lantern" demonstration, in
the next speech for bunkum in Congress, or

sy- A writer in the National Intelligent
Ger, of the 26th ult., suggests, ms worthy Of
consideration, whether il would not efiectual-
ly put stop upon all sectional quarrels and
disputes between the different portions ofthe
Union, TO create National Debt, Of one or
two hundred miilions-the debt to be held
by the citizens of the United States, as the
English debt is held by the English capital
lists? The writer spoken Of does not propose
the creation of such debt, but throws out
the hint as one worthy of consideration. He
thinks if the people of this country had one
or two hundred millions invested in Govern
ment securities, they would never listen to
any proposition for a dissolution of the
Union.
The writer in the Inteligencer might have
added that all that is. necessary TO create the
debt of one or two hundred millions is to
keep the present Democratic party in power.

with ali its respect, and affection, and graf.
itude for Mr.. Buchanan, is compelled TO show
up the shortcomings and blunderings of the
Administration, occasionally. Indeed, its
blunderings and short comings are so numer-
GUS and of such an aggravated character, in
many instances that it is simply impossible
for the most invcterate idoizer of the Pres-
dent TO overlook them. Hear what the Her
aid says in regard to the Administrations
foreign policy;
"The foreign policy of the United States,
during the Administrations of Presidents
Pierce and Buchanan, has been shame and
