THE DEMOCRACY OF CALIFORNIA SUSTAIN TIL
PRESIDENT

THE DEMOCRACY OF CAldFONNlA SlSlAlN The
PRESIDENT
In the Senate day before yesterday Senator Gwin
presented the joint resolutions of the California
Legislature instructing her senators and requesting
her representatives in Congress to vote for the i'm
mediate admission of Kansas State under the
Lecompton constitution, On the presentation of
these resolutions Mr. Broderck stated that he should
disregard them, because, as he said, they did not
express the wishes Of a majority of the people Of
California Mr.. Broderick may believe what he
says but if So he does it in the face of the facts and
the evidence as furnished by the Legislature, and
sustained by the newspaper press of his State. We
have heretofore published extracts from several
of the most prominent democratic journals of the
State endorsing the policy of the administration,
and we give below, from the San Francisco Herald
the leading and ognised organ.of the democracy
of California reached us by the last steamer
an article fully sustaining the President, and com
mending the Legislature for its endorsement of his
course
By the steamer which leaves port to day California
sends the solemn and earnest declaration of her resolve
to uphold the President in the wise and prudent policy
he has pursued in relation to Kansas The resolutions
adopted two weeks ago by the assembly have since been
endorsed by the senate The natives of the peo
pie of California have avowed themselves in favor of the
prompt admission of Kansas into the Union the best
of solving the difficulties that have long
vulsed the Union, and threatened its disruption This
result arrived Mt in the legislature after calm earnest
and courteous discussion and it is the TO be
oced at for the that the triumph of the majority
has engendsred angry feeling in the party We
friends at the East that the democracy of this State
cannot be caoled into division this issue. The fail
Of the two recent attempts to atate the in
opposition to the admission OF Kansas haa proved that
the people have taken wise conservative view of this
matter and that all efforts dssension In the ranks
Of the party prove futile and abortive In the
test next September the democracy will have forgotten
the difference Of opinion which has obtained for time
among its members and will II has done present
unbrokcn front to the enemies of the Union.
II hope that the next steamer which
rives may bring Of the admission Of Kansas The
affairs of that unhappy Territory have for years occupied
the attention of the country to the exclusion Of it's inn
portant interests II has been made the battle ground Of
faction Fanatics have attempted to make 1t the enter
ing wedge by which the Union to be rent asunder
The eligible way put end to those mischevous
attempts and to avoid the consequences Of their
success to promptly admit Kansas State and leave
thereafter to her people, the settlement of their a
fairs without being subject to federal Interference be-
ing annoyed and agitated by impertinent inermeddng

From Buenos Ayres and nIontevideo.

The New York papers publish interesting intelli-
gence from the Rio de la Plata up to 10th Of January
from which we extract the following .5,,.
Business was dull. There were twenty-five Ameri.
vessels in port and very little promise Of cargoes
for them. The crisis it was expected, would reach
its height in Buenos Ayres about the 10th of January
on the arrival OF the mail from England, as il was
anticipated that large amount OF bills would be re
turned from Europe. One house alone had made
shipments Of between sixty and seventy thousand
hides to England, on which they would lose "a
silver each. Several heavy failures were considered
inevitable. -fl 81 T 94let
Political news is not of much interest. AT Monte
video the revolution still continued The town was
in state of siege, but the war was not prosecuted
with any great vigor. 1t was merely fight for
power between two factions, no fundamental principle
being involved. The party of Banquillos occupied
the city, aud the CooradOs beseged the town the
struggle was carried on la guerilla. and the com-
municaton remained perfectly free and open to all
except fighting men.
All sorts Of provisions were introduced into the city
the country people passing through the camp Of the
besiegers with perfect imppnty. The besieged took
matters so easily, and c0sidered their subsistence so
certain that they levied small duty upon all fresh
provisions brought through the gates. A flibuster
expedition OF ifty-two men had been organized in
BuenOs Ayres, and sailed in the schooner Mapu for
Monteydeo to assist the besegers. The schooner be-
longed to the Bueuos Ayrean Government, and an
attempt was made in Montevideo to identify that Gov
ernment with the movement. The schooner was cap
tuFed by Monteydeans after the ibusters had landed
The u. s. irigate st. Lawrence was at Montevideo,
and the Americans, French, English, aud Brazlians,
had landed large forces OF marines TO protect the
property Of foreign merchants A 81 a g.
From the interior provinces we have but little news
Everything was quiet in the confederation. The paper
war against Paraguay was waged with more hit
terness than ever and the preparations for fighting
on the part Of Brazil and Paraguay progressed Slowly
