LOWER CALIFoRNIA.-A correspondent Of
the Los Angeles Star, writing from San
Louis Rey, October, Gath, speaks of the rob-
berries and murders committed in Lower
California, by the company of bandits, and
adds:
The expedition was formed in Upper Cali
fornia, but is not composed of any Americans

furnished them with sixteen good horses.

1t is reported that some of the robbers
were killed at Sausal among whom is men
toned the noted murderer Martin Espinosa
at the head of the Indians.
Great excitement prevails in the city of
San Diego, and, indeed, throughout that
whole section of country, regarding the af-
fairs of Lower California and the safety of
Esparsa. He has the sympathy of all our
peaceful and law abiding citizens, and we do
most sincerely hope that he will rid the cOun.

fest that unfortunate country.
Intelligence was brought to San Diego in
the beginning of the week, that Esparsa was
eneamped at Ysidro with $50 men, but only
nine pounds of powder. The citizens imme
dately assembled and raised funds to pro-
cure munitions. Col. Cave J. Couts acted no.
Gly on the occasion. He readily consented
to lead any company that might be raised, to
march to the assistance of Esparss. This, af-
terwards was deemed unnecessary, as it was
found that the Governor was not only well
fortified, but had been joined by number
of Americans, among them company of
otto hunters, unerring marksmen. On the
3lst ult. the citizens forwarded one hundred
and twenty five pounds of powder, with
lead, ETC., all that could be obtained. This
was forwarded by sea, on board whaler,
the party entrusted to have Sl0O for his SER
vices The reason why so much interest is
felt on behalf of Esparsa is, because the peo.
pie of San Diego have been protected by him
in their persons and property-to a greater
extent, they say, than the U. S. Government
even has afforded.

unnecessary and unwarrantable and said
the chief thing to be done was a union of all
for the defeat of Lincoln, which he consider
ed imperative. Should Lincoln, however be
elected, he (Sam Houston) would support
him until he committed some overt act against
the constitutional rights of the South and
then, and not until then, he would be for
taking legal way of removing him from
office. The entire drift of this portion of
his speech was a call on all the friends of all
the candidates to unite, or fuse, for the pur-
pose of defeating Lincoln, whose election,
however, he did not consider sufficient cause
for dissolution of the Union
His own plan for protectorate over Mex

ME-HoDIsM AND SLAVERY KEY. Doc or
Eddy, editor Of the North Western Chris
tian Advocate, IN. E.) has written letter
to President Buchanan. which appears in
the Chicago papers. He states that the
Methodist Church is no political organiza-
ton; that its members have ever been a
loyal people, and that as such they claim
the right to enter any part OF the domain OF
the United States; but that the demomina-
ton to which they belong has attained its
influence in consequence Of its being deci-
ded and Incorporating in its anti-slavery
views. Mnny persons residing in the slave
States prefer to be connected with the di
vision of the Methodist Church for which
DR.. Eddy speaks, yet they have been cub.
jected to barbarous treatment for acting in
accordance with this preference. DR.. EDDY
cites recent transactions in Texas as proof
of this position, alludng especially TO the
hanging OF Rev. Mf Bewley, with whom
he was personally acquainted. Now, the
question arises, can Msthodists be prote cted
in the Southern States, or are they to be
exposed to death at the hands Of unlscensed
mobsl Hitherto the Church has been divi-
ded in it's votes ON political subj jects, but a
few more such murders as that OF Bewley
says Dr. Eddy, and Meihodists will ask who
can give them an administrs ion strong
enough TO uphold their rights.
