A New ROUTE TO THE PACIFIC.-A cor
respondent of the Courier des Etats Unis, writ
ing from Monaqua, in Nicaragua, gives infor-
nation of the discovery of a new route to the
Pacific ocean. The Atlantic terminus is about
midway the Mosquito coast, on stream mark
cd on the map, "Rio Grande." This is describ-
ed as large enough to admit our ocean steam
crs, although it has been wholly overlooked
thus far. The water of the river is deep, eighty
miles inland. from which point it is but one
hundred and twenty-three miles to the Pacific,
over level plain. All conditions favorable TO
the enterprise are declared by the writer to be
supplied by this route. Not only is the level
of the uniformity Indicated but the climate is
less torrid than that of Louisiana, the re-
gion being singularly healthful; while the tim
Der necessary to engineering labors is convent
ent and abundant.

ARE THEY MAD.-It is settled fact that if
Lincoln is elected, he will find that his support
ers in the House of Representatives will be in
a minority. AS for the Senate, every one
knows that it would be impossible for law in
fringing on the rights of the South to pass that
body. And yet, some of the Breckenridge lead
ers are telling us that the Union will be dis
solved whenever Lincoln is inaugurated as
President, and at the same time are aiding the
election of Lincoln by supporting Breckenridge
against Douglas, who is the only man that can
defeat Lincoln. Are they mad, are they work.

which is of interest to members of the bar
throughout the State, was made last Friday, in

Civil cases may be submitted on written argu-
ment at any time, upon filing with the Clerk a
stipulation to that effect.

REcLAIMING TULE LAND.-The Sonoma
Tule Land company are at work retaining or
draining 5000 acres of little swamps. They
dig ditch two feet deep and then pack it solid
full of mud, continuing the structure two feet
above ground. The whole length of the dyke
projected is ten miles after the dyking is COM

GREAT CoNFLAGRATTON IN SMYRNA.-Late
advices from Asiatic Turkey announce that
a terrible disaster by fire had befalen the
city of Smyrna. on the 9th August. The
quarter of the town known as ST. Dimitri
was laid in ashes. Over seven hundred
houses were consumed and many gardens
burned over. The weather had been for
some time excessively hot, which rendered
all iGfammable materials an easy prey to
the flames, which spread with terrible rapid
ity. The residents of the iI-fated locality
were nearly all Greeks, and were chiefly
day workers at different trades. The cause
OF the disaster was purely accidental. It is

Don ANTONIO GANDARA.-A few day ago,
we received intelligence of the probable over
throw of Pesqueira in the State of Sonora. AT
the head of the Yaqui Indians and Mexican IN
surrectionists is Don Antonio Gandara, who
himself seeks to be Governor. 1t is reported
that he is immensely rich, equally popular, and
is manly and brave enough to fill any position
with honor and dignity. A correspondent of
the st. Louis Republican says that he is now
about twenty five years of age, athletic, an ex-
pert horseman, commanding in appearance,
and experienced in the use of weapons.

NAPoLEoN's ESTIMATE OF THE ITALIANS.

NAP0LE0N's ESTIMATE OF THE ITALIANS
Louis Bonaparte, ex-King of Holland. and
father of the French Emperor, in his reply
TO scouts history of Napoleon, relates the
followlng;-'I was rear Napoleon one day
when he received from-if am not mists-
ken-an ad-de-camp of Marshal Soult the
report of some victories in Spain; of one.
among others, in which the Italian troops
had greatly distinguished themselves. One
of the persons who stood by exclaimed, on
bearing this, "tbat the Italians showed
themselves worthy of their independence,
and that it was to be wished that the whole
OF Italy should be united as one nation"
"God forbid" exclaimed Napoleon, sud.
denly. and unable to restrain himself.
'they would soon be the masters of the
Gauls."

Horrible Atrocities III Lower California.
A letter from Lower California confirms
the intelligence of the arrival of gaup o
thieves from Los Angeles. The CORES.
pondent of the Alta, writing on the 18th of
October. says
"A gang of thieves and murderers have
lately Invaded Lower California As soon
as the Mexican territory was reached tbo"
aroused the Indians against the settIsrs
ana they ana the ruftans killed. without
pity, all The rich and honest men they could
catch.
Some time since number of murderers
ana outlaws escaped from Upper to Lower

lars OF Joaqul, Flores and others, who oc-
casloned SO much terror in Sonora, Mari
posa, San Luis and San Juan. For time
Governor Esparza got the better of them.
but they finally triumphed. They threat.
ened to extend their depredations TO the
AMer'can territory. B. W."
In addition to the foregoing, we translate
portions OF letter to the Echo du Pacifione Z
dated Oct. 18th. from San Luis Rev /:
"Ihe band of robbers mentioned in the
Herald some time ago, as having gone from
Los Angeles TO Lower California. have mr.
rived and commenced The most horrible
atrocities. They murdered nearly Ali thev
met and.robbed every one thew could lay
hands on Among those already killed are
the following persons:
u. ID. Casimiro Perez, Ayothon Senior
Abraham Marion, Cipriano Costro Andrcs
Vidal. Francisco Ribera, Jose NJ. Rodri-
guez, A. Mauriqucz, Cristobal Palleiaro
Vicente Rosas, NJ. Silva and Gero1imo
Laurel.
NJ. Silva was an American and SeiIor
Laurel native OF Buenos Ayres.
lnese pirates (says the correspondent of
the Echo) carry list containing thirty.
three names of those doomed to death
They have already killed twelve, leaving
twenty-one more to assassinate. AmonG
tue doomed are the Governor, the Priest
the Judges and the Council of the country.
Inc robberies OF cattle have been very
considerable on the ranches. The greatest
suiferors are Senior Ramon Rivas, the Priest
OF Santo Tomas, Don Mariana Valdiyia and
f. Ribera. Everything on the frontier is
covered with flame and blood. These han.
dts respect no one. not even their own
6rotners. These pirates come from Upper
California, but are not Americans. The
famous robber and assassin, Martin Espi.
nosa, who commanded the Indians was
killed by Cashmere Perez while defending
himself. 1t is said that his death has caused
many OF the Indians to desert. The Gov
ernor is aware of this invasion and has a.
sem6led the people of the country and for
titled himself on the property of the Rev.
Father Alric. He bas provisions for long
time, and his position s very favorable for
making resistance. The pirates are more
numerous than the troops of Governor Es-
parza, the Indians alone numbering about
two hundred. Despite this superiority of
the enemy. believe that the Governor
will triumph"

FERRETING THEM.-A young man Of Stock
ton lately received present Of two English
ferrets. He took them out to large rat hole
the next morning, and the little fellows rushed
into it and terrible squealing heard. In
an incredibly short space Of time, something less
than a minute, they killed sixteen, and came
out of the hole and were bagged. The number
killed was ascertained by digging out the hole.

MYsTERY.-We learn from the Columbia
Times, that few days since, the bones Of a
man were discovered by some miners who were
at work in the rear of Middleworth's brewery,
at Sonora. The remains had fragments Of
clothing, together with silk sash about them.
No steps have as yet been taken to inquire into
this most singular discovery. There seems to
be considerable mystery connected with this af-
fair, which an effort should be made to solve.

SHOOTING AT FOREST CITY.-The Sierra

in the feminine creation was shot at in Forest

but have been informed that the shooting was
partly justifable.

One day last january Madame Lavogne, a bro
ker's wife, of Paris, took il into her head to want
a breastpin. Moreover, she determined to desire d
particular sort Of breastpin- an emerald encrcled
with diamonds which could be altered ingenionsly
into bracelet or necklace by clever contryance
Of clasps. Madame Lavogue therefore went to q
jewelers. in the Rue de Ia Paix, and discovered q
love of thing-just what she wanted, in fact; and
the jeweler, with that sagacious foresight peculiar
to French tradesnen, insisted on her carrying the
breastpin home to show to her husband and exam
inc more at her leisure. Madame yielded.
That evening there was dinner-party at the
Calapassess, and Madame Il. could not resist the
opportunity 1t afforded Of trying the effect Of the
ribbon. The Paris jeweler was probably aware Of
the use that Madame L. might make of his couF-
tesy, but he was perfectly resigned beforehand,
having, no doubt, his reasons. The emerald pro-
