RAIN.-We forgot to mention the
pleasant and refreshing rain of Thurs
day of last week. 1t was beauti-
full episode in our long life amid sun
shine. More Of it would have teen
gratefully received. 1t served to but
partially lay the dust and remind us
of the approach of another rainy
season.

The British in China.-A new diff
ficulty has arisen between the British
and Chinese which led to an attack on
the 25th of June, upon some forts at
the mouth ofthe Peiho. The British
were defeated with loss of between
400 and 500 men. The affair grew
out of a misunderstanding between
the negotiating parties in treaty.
1t is supposed that Russians directed
the guns in the Chin ese forts.
The affair has thrown all negocia-
tions into confusion, and no one
knows what the end will be.

PANORAMA OF FRAZER RIVER, &c


A panorama of Fraze, River. and
dissolving views Of places in Cali
fornia and peculiarities of California
life. were on exhibition at the
Theatre on Friday. Saturday and
Monday evenings last. We spent an
evening very pleasantly witnessing
the show of wonderful pictures. The
object Of the exhibitors is not partic-
ularly to make money in their tour
over the State, but to paint pano-
rama of every camp they travel thro'
to exhibit in the Eastern States. Yet
the exhibition as it is might well JUS
tify the expectation of realizing some
thing handsome to its owners in its
course through the country.
The views of Victoria and Frazer
River are pronounced remarkably
correct by returned Trazerites. The
wonderful change of scenes, in some
cases almost amounting to move
ments like life. is pleasing and in
teresting part of the show. There is
also collection of statuary pictures,
beautiful and chaste, the works of old
masters, attached to the exhibition.
The proprietors also exhibit beautiful
local scenes which will hereafter be.
long to collection to be exhibited in

He necer deserted principle. -
Senator Broderick in his first speech
on the stump. delivered at Placer
vile, used this memorable language !:
Reputation for consistency with
me will never outweigh the satisfac-
ton of being right. | could indite no
epitaph to be placed over ME in the
future which would be higher re-
ward than this HE never deser-
ted principle"
That epitaph if not chiseled upon
upon the monumental shaft which
will rise over the honored dead, will
forever be engravcn as truth upon the
hearts of thousands of freemen. "He
never deserted principle" The brave
stand he took almost alone against
the Administration he had helped to
power, when he found it corrupt, is a
proof of his devotion to right and a
beautiful and admirable lesson to the
young aspirants tor political honors
Never desert all honorable principle.
Position and powerhavc been gained
by slavish subserviency, and aban-
donment of the true; but no fame
is respected by the good which is not
founded on an adhesion to the right.

TO Lecture at the Theatre on Satur-

Taylor is the greatest traveller of
modern times. He has rambled over
the greater part of habitable North
America. has traversed Europe in all
directions. from the Mediterranean to
the Artfc regions and from the Allan

The DuEL.-The more the snb-
ect is considered, the more thorough
ly convinced do we become, that the
death of Senator Broaerick was the
result Of conspiracy. When we
come to take iuto consider alton the
small proyocation given Judge Terry,
and the willingness Of Senator Brod-
erick to withdraw all remarks often
sive to Terry on conditions which no
gentleman not thirsting for blood
could refuse when we know that
those most intimate with Terry wrote
letters weeks ago conveying the idea
that duel was imperative when we
collect together all the circumstances
which preceded the fatal encounter
and were attendant upon it there is
no room to doubt that the life of Mr..
Bre1erick was the sine qua non OF his
enemies. The whole affair from be-
ginning to end is rank with murder.
The intent is plain, even before the
fatal day. On the field it is evident
in the selection of pistols, the advan-
tage taken of an accidental discharge
the deliberate aim and assassin re-
mark. Il hit him two inches too far
to the right for mortal wound"-a
remark premeditately made we be-
lieve for effect upon jury.
