lie was very severe in his rcmaks, and seems
TO be a considerable master Of satire. His
language was generally pretty well selected
and some Of it striking, particularly that part
oft in which healluded to "the e,sascra,ul,vs
integrity Of Abe Lincoln This was, how
ever, without much doubt a laps,es liag,a

even than the somewhat too familiar desic-
nation Of Honest old Abe"

STEAMERS oN THE WAY TO CALIFORNIA FROM
New YoRk.-A st. Louis corr espondent OF
the Alta, writing July 2Sth says "RumorS
were current in New York in relation to the
establishment of a steamship line to Calitor-
MIA, throughout all last week
On the 28d, the facts partially came to
light AS far back as the 18th inst, NJ. ~
Roberts cleared the steamship Granada Tor
New Orleans; but the clearance was no
sooner made out and report thereof turIdsh
ed for publication, than theship's destination
was altered and she sailed forthwith, laden
with coal for san Francisco California. Inc
Herald on the oath reports the Moses taylor
loading with Goals, to start for California I'D Il
day or two, to be followed by the Star OF the
w est the Empire City and the Philadelphia
the ocean fleet of the U. ;. Mail ;. ;. GO.
These vessels are partly owned and controI
ed by NJ. o. Roberts, who now sends them TO
the Pacific. What he is going to do with
them there he declines to state. lie refuses
to say whether they are to run on the coast
of North or South America, or whether they
will stop at Panama or san Juan del sur.
Nor is that gentleman at all inclined to lot
the public know W ho are the parties backil g
him in This undertaking. how many ships
are going off 1t is we'll however, in advance,
to warn the public against the ships them
selves. They are first class tubs and utterly
unfit for service. The Moses Taylor is an
excellent sea boat, but is only $50 tons bur-
then, and is the ship which Horace Greedy
so wildly described on his return voyage to
New Y York. as worse for second class passen-
gers than the Black Hole Of Calcutta She is
too small for the business The Star of the
West is the best Of the lot, though getting
old and wormy. The Granada had hole
stove in her bottom last winter by the ice in
New York harbor, and also a small ship
formerly used TO run between Aspinwall
Havana and New Orleans The other two
are perfect tubs The Philadelphia and
Empire City were in the Californian trade
when passengers for the lsthmus landed at
Chagres, and have escaped destruction two OF
three times by the interpostion of miracles
Not one ship in the five is worthy the pat
ronage Of Californians
The most important points in the mystery
in New York are the names of the partie-
who support Mr. Roberts in this movement
Wall street is full of frumors.
It's ertain that men Of weight are inter-
estcd in it, as it must cost $50, 600 to send
each ship to San Francisco-more than either
the Empire City, Philadelphia, or Granada
probably would bring at auction. Amid all
the theories in regard to this movement, ne
one has ventured to mention the l1te Califor-
MIA mil contract difficulties at Washington.
May it not be that the Postmaster General
has given Roberts some assurances on that
point.

GREAT wrath is expressed by the Brcckin-

Central Committee, Judge Reardan, because
he did not wait an indefinite length of time
for the absent members Of the Committee to
be present at the meeting. Wen, the meet
ing was called for Wednesday, the Sth inst,
and due notice given both in the DEMOCRAT
and the Breckinridge organ, 1t was the
business of the members to be present. If
they were not present, there was reason for
it. Two were on hand, the other three were
Mr.. Mcdonald, Mr.. Sewel and Mr. Miller.
The Chairman naturally concluded 10y Me-
Donald's non-arrival from his home on Bear
River, that he didn't care about acting. lie
knew also, we believe, that Messrs. Sewell
and Miller were in Washoe, hunting for sill
yer, and could not possibly be present They
being absent, it made no real difference so far
as the result was concerned whether Mr..
Mcdonald was present or not, because he
would have been in a minority anyhow, and
the Committee would have done, in the end,
precisely what they did do.
We see no reason, under the circumstances,
for such tempest of wrath as seems to affect
some of the Breckenridge faction.
