MORE OF THE REBUKE OF Amos KENDALL TO
THE FIRE EATERs.-A few weeks ago ex-
Speaker Orr, of South Carolina, addressed a
letter to the Hon. Amos Kendall of Wash
ington, asking him for an exposition of his
opinion upon the question of Southern seces,
sion in the case cf the Inauguration of Re-
publican President Mr., Kendall replies in
a manner that must be anything but salts.
factory to the Southern Hotspur. The ex-
Postmaster General not only expresses his
dissent in toto from the secession doctrine that
the Inauguration of Mr.. Lincoln would be
Just cause for secession, but he goes further
and tells his friendly querist that any attempt
to break up the Union upon such frivolous
grounds would be put down 10y force. In
this connection he refers to the time of PRESS
dent jackson. when one hundred and tiftv
volunteers rendered their services
to Government to aid it if necessary, in put.
ting down the secession movement of that
day, and tells the eX-Speaker that should
like occasion occur, two hundred thousand
volunteers would spring to the aid of the
President, no matter by what party he may
be elected
Mr.. Kendall then enters into an exposition
OF the disastrous consequences that would re
suit from an attempt at secession, and show
ing that it would involve the utter ruin of
the South. The Union, he says "s too pre-
cious to the people it protects, to be broken
up even should Black Republican Presi-
dent be elected next November, aud should
the attempt be made, a united North and
three'fourths of a divided South would spring
to the rescue"
MIR. Kendall repudiates the Southern doc
trine that Congress can legislate for the pro-
lection of slavery in the Ter ritories as fraught
with inevitable peril to the institutions OF |
the South, for should the principles of legis-
lative interference become the rule of prac-
tice in our Government it would he found in |
the hands of a Republican administration to
involve the power to destroy as well as to
protect. The letter closes with an earnest |
call upon the patriotic men of both sections |
Ct the country to unite for the triple purpose |
of preventing any attempts to dissolve the |
Union in the event of Mr.. Lincolns election. |
Of checking the Republican party while in |
the ascendant and expelling it from power at
the next election.
Sucfare a few Of the prominent points of
this very remarkable letter, from very re-
marka6le man. Its sentiments could not do |
than excite the passions of the un-
reasonable men whom it was intended to in
struct and warn, and therefore it is not sur
prising to hear, as we do from Washington.
that the tire-eaters feel great Indignation
toward Mr.. Kendall and denounce him as an
Abolitionist. We do not hear, however. that
they propose to lynch the venerable Jack
sonian for the unPalatable truths he has told
them

ANOTHER FILIBUsTEE EXpENTIoN. "A dis
patch from Los Angeles to the Alta, dated
October 10th, says: We learn from Mr.. W.
5. Morrow, who arrived in this city on Mon
day last from the quartz mines in San Diego
county, that a company of fliJusters. well
armed and numbering about forty men,
passed his camp about the ID inst. Their
destination was Lower California, and their
mission supposed to be the capture and mur-
der of Gov. Esparso. After leaving Mr..
Morrow's camp, they repaired to the ranch
of Mr.. Bandini, in Lower California, where
they arrived having fifty Indian recruits who
were also well armed They made a demand
of Mr.. Bandini for some horses, which being
refused, six shooters were drawn, and three
horses taken 10y force
Those who made their appearance at Mr..
NJ S camp were Mexieans and Californians.-
1t is supposed that majority of them were
citizens Of Los Angeles county. 1t is also
supposed that the leaders and others of the
band were relatives of some desperadoes who
were recently executed in Lower California,
under the order of Gov. Esparso They seek
this method of ayenging their death.

liberty of reporting the proceedings of a cer-

this place last evening, under somewhat
peculiar circumstances. About a week ago
the Breckinridge Club of this place issued
call for meeting, and announced Colonel
Whitesidcs and Mr.. IIaun to be present and
discuss the political issues of the dav. Some
days subsequently,, and in fact only 80 hours
previous to the holding of the meeting the
Douglas men announced Charley DeLong AMI

the same time and place; but in heinterval
of the so hours the gallant Breckenridge men
took the alarm, and paid Mr.. DeLong and

BLoNDIN's ASCENSION The announcement
that the "Wonderful Blondin" would walk
his rope yesterday blindfolded and enveloped
in a sack, attracted no less than 5000 people
to Jones Wood in the afternoon, to witness
probably a rope-breadth escape, or possibly
a fatal catastrophe. After stretching their
nocks for an hour after the appointed time
looking at the lofty rope. the gazers were at
length satisfied with the appearance of the
hero of Niagara Falls. Blondin nimbly as
cended the mast, took his pole from an at
tendant, and rapidly walked to the center.
After performing the customary terrific evo-
lutions on the slack rope, swinging, turning,
twisting and hanging, he resumed his journey
and reached the opposite pole safely, amid
loud plaudits After blindfoding himself
and enveloping his head and body in a sack,
he commenced his journey back, varying the

FAcIXG THE MrsIo-Douglas has met the
fire eaters in the South face to face and has
told them what no Southern man in their
own country has dared tell them-hat he
,oouid hang every one of them as high as Ha-
man, who, in consequence of the election of
Black Republican President, shall attempt
to dissolve the Government. That is the ring
of the true metal. Let the South understand
at once that they have nothing to hope from
treason but the halter and they will hesitate
before allowing a Black Republican to be
elected, thus creating cause for their own
complaints. They may secede at Charleston
and bolt at Baltimore but they cannot ruin
this confederacy because they cannot rule it..
Stick to them, Douglas! Talk it right out
to them. The real Union men of all political
parties, North and south, will stand by you.
What noble contrast does his bold and
intrepid attitude present to that of Lincoln,
who declares that he would like to visit his
old home in Kentucky, but is afraid to do so
for fear of sustaining personal Uiolence lie
is as fearful and timid as the Little Giant"

STRANGE NOISES AT SAN QUENTIN. Capt
Norton of the sloop Kate arrived here last
evening from Marin county, and informs us
that when about two miles this side of the
prison, at one o'clock yesterday, he heard a
loud report of fire arms. He says that the
firing Of small arms continued for some time,
when the large cannon was brought into
play and belched forth its thunder. The di-
reetion of the firing was evidently into the
Bay at the south Of the prison, and our n-
formant therefore supposed that some of the
prisoners had made break in the boats or
were swimming towards them lie could
plainly see the water splash where the large
sho struck II is possible that a break OF
the prisoners might have caused the firing;
but we are rather inclined to believe that it
was in consequence of the final withdraw u
of McCauley from the prison, who having
finished up his brick burning, was about to
formally take his leave Of san Quentin yes

BETTING VS.. BRAGGNG. The Breckinridge
boilers here and elsewhere in the State, bIag
loudly of what amounts they are ready and
anxious to bet on Breckinridge beating
Douglas in California, but invariably take
good care to do so at times and places when
and where there is no proba bility of finding
customer" for their money. These boast
ers are sometimes caught however, and made
to invest their funds in a losing speculation,
or back squarely down This was the case
at the Bank Exchange on Monday last, where
a gentlemen was bOasting of what he would
bet-some $1,000 we believe-on Breckin-
ridge beating Douglas in the State His brag
game, however, was suddenly brought to an
end by Mr.. w. ID. Chapman, who informed
him that he (Chapman) had the ready money
in his pocket to take that bet or five thousaL d
dollars more The other had not the funds
at command to make his own offer good, and
in fact, he was only "authorized to make the
offer for other parties" Mr.. Chapman stated
that he ''talked money when he offered to
bet or take a bet" and would be happy to
see "other parties" to the tune ofS500, 81 900
or $4,000. "Other parties" were sent for,
but they were not forthcoming with the
funds until at last the newly converted
Brecknridger and his friends telegraphed to
q State official at Sacramento, and by this
means were enabled to make a bet of $500
only: Mr.. Chapman begging them to add to
that amount another But no, five hundred
was as much as they could afford to lose on
their game of brag They were caught in
it, handsomely, and had to, for appearan &c
sake put up something to make show.

vest some funds-in snail or large amounts
upon Breckenridge beating Douglas in Cali
