COSTA RIGA.

The arrest ard bani.hmeut of President Mora,
and the revolution 10 the government OF Costa hics
based upon it, is singular Illustration Of the total
instability Of the political affairs even OF those
States of Spanish America which seem to be the
me 81 firm and stable. Senior Juan Rafael Mors
had been at the head Of the Costa Rican Govern.
ment for ten years, and had conducted it's affairs
with distinguished success. 1t was entirely due to
bis energy and spirit that the usurpation which
Walker had established in Nicaragua was over
thrown, and that Central America was delivered
from the rule of flibusters. He had previously
obt,ned from Spain treaty recognizing the indie
pendence of Costa Rica, and had negotiated con-
cordat with the Pope by which the coun-
try was erected into separate Bishopric.
Under his Government the productions, ex-
ports, ard revenue of the State hsd largely
increased, and he had been able to meet the OK
penses Of the fIbuster war without difficulty. 1t
is but few months ago that upon the expiration
Of one term of his presidency, be was elected tor
smother by large msjority. And yet be is sud
denly seized in the middle Of the night by little
squad of soldiers, taken out Of bis bed, kept two
days prisoner in the barracks, then carried under
military escort to Puntas Arenas, aud shipped Gu
the steamer of the Panama Railroad Company,
which trades along that coast-and all this without
the slightest movement being made by anybody for
his release and rescue. Just as quietly so far as
appears did the people of Costa RIGA submit to the
new government which the getters up Of this move
ment proceeded to organize The provisional pre-
sjeh. Is Jose Marie Montsalgre who, like the
bsnished Mora, is Represented to be wealthy mer-
chaLt. He was educsted in Europe as a physician,
aud is said to be an inteigea! and enlightened man.
Costa RIGA will be fortunate if it should be as pros
porous under his government as it has been Under
that of his banished predecessor.

GOLD GOING OUT.

Look at the now opening gold traffic in Kansas.
Il is taking the same channel that gold ever did
since Cortez sent his first punderngs in Mexico TO
Spain. The trade no sooner begins than its pro-
ducts go the same journey. Gold is undoubtedly
obtained in Kansas, and from recent accounts the
Weld is destined to be large one But why does
every overland arrival Of the msi inform Us that
so many ounces have left the mines and reached
Leayenworthl Why does every ounce come this
wayl Why does it leave Pixies Peak at all 7
Because of the remarkable law, fixed and un-
cbargcsble, that gold Ike water, always seeks the
lowest level abandoning countries where the rate
Of interest is highest and seeking those whsre the
rate is lowest. The energy Of the same Law forces
Australia, Mexico, and California to give up their
gold 10 tie low-interest countries, England and
Germany, and Kansas will prove DO exception.
The gold Of California merely comes here in
tran.tu from country where money commands
two per cent month, and is forthwith exported 70
another where the owner is satisfied with three
per cent per annum. Unless disturbed BY
war or famine, il remains permanently in
the low interest countries, and hence there
is constant drain from US to them. Ii is drawn
10 them and reu aims with them, because the cult
walton Of the soil is there highest while with US it
is lowest, and because human employment is mos.
thoroughly diversified BY all forms of m,nuf,c:ur-

tendance ia unusu ally large, and much feeling exists
between the friends of Judge Douglas, who wish
State expression in his favor and those who oppose
such amovemert.
The temporary organic alton was effected by thS
choice Of Francis j. Parker of Boston, Douglas maa.

dent with the ususl list Of Presidents an Score
tsIies. Dr. Lorng supported by the Douglas wing
Of the Convention, and receye $40 votes out o l,f3
thrown. The business OF the Convention then pro-
ceeded with harmony and spirit il being moved that
ballot be entered into for candidate for GoverAos.
Hon. Is. f. Hallett, of Boston, made speech. in
which he withdrew his own name, and moved
the nomination Of Gen. Ben amin +. Butler, Of
Lowell, by exclamation. Tho motion prevailed
by an immense In aiority, and General Batter

MAN AND WOMAN kILLEE By LIGHTNING
The Davenport Gazette says q dwelling near
hickory Grove, Is miles from that place, was
struck by lightning, on Thursday morning last,
and man and woman were killed. A neigh
Dor calling in directly after the storm, found
the man and his wife lying dead on the floor,
with the table spread as if they had been eat :
| ing their breakfast when Death came.
POLITICAL ON DITs.-We learn that General
Dodge has written a letter to a friend in this
county declining the doubtful honor of NOM
ination for Governor. He is looking to higher
position. he expects, aud has fair chance OF
nomination to the Vice Presidency, provided q
southern candidate is nominated for the Press
dency.
Judge Clagget is q prominent candidate for
nomination tor Supreme Judge, with, we are
told, fair show for success before the Conven-
ton. His friends think him an injured man,
aud that be can only be vindicated BY pre-
sentation Of his name to tie whole State rs q
candidate for Supreme Judge. He s also rich
and Liberal and can afford the exl use of the
canvass.
We also hear that Mr.. Corse, of this city, is
prominent candidate for Lieut.. Governor before
the Democratic Convention. Mr.. Corse is an old
settler and q good neighbor and c,llzen and we
should be glad to see him receive the honor Of
9 nomination from his party, although We are
very confident it would be without results.
Baker, Of Charlton, has been named for Gov
srnor, but many Of his friends think be better
take the nomination for Judge of the Supreme
Court
Judge Mason would, we Are credibly n.
formed, take the nomination for Governor were
it cordially and with tolerAble unity rendered TO
him.
Judge Wilson, Of Dubuque, is willing to be
the nominee tor the Supreme Rench and stands
decidedly the best chance. He will, however,
have G. ]. Mcfarland and James H. Woods to
contend against, Who will be earnestly presented
- the Convention by the unterri6ed Democracy
OF the North West.
Ws give thus much for The benefit Of the
Democratic party, as they are without an organ
here and look to the Hawk-Eye for aews Of
every sort.

nous in history as '.he Rubicon," which Caesar
crossed, when, returning FROM his conquest in
GAul. he decided upon marching with his army
to Rome, in defiance Of the orders of the Ro.
man Senate.
The Ticino, or Tessin, rises in Switzerland on
the southern declivity Of Mount St Gothard,
and flows sonth-easterly through the Lake Mag
giore. Thence It runs In soutberly direction,
forming the boundary between Lombardy aud
Sardinia until il joins the river Pc, near Payis
Its whole course is about 1875 miles, aud il is
