SACRAMENTO CORRESPONDENCE.
SACRAMENTO. Jan. 9th. 1860

glory of John b. on this day paled, before
the light of the rising sun, and the new Gov
ernor, Milton S. Latham. The first saw of
the display was at the Capital at about IL
4. NJ, when three fine military companies,
viz: the Sacramento Hnssas, City Guards
and Sutter Rifles, preceded by fine band
of music, mounted, (as were also the Hussas)
and followed by q Jaroache, drawn by six
gray horses and containing r. II. Covey
Esq, and his whip, passed up Seventh street,
on the way to Gov. Weller's mansion. The
Governor was taken in and hauled carefully
down to the residence of the Governor elect
(his fine building near the Forest Theater,)
well guarded by the military, and enlivened
by the harmonious strains of the band al
ready mentioned Gov. Latham then snug
ged in by the side of Gov. Weller, and the
twain were taken the Capitol. The appear
ance of Gov, Weller was statesmanlike and
Impressive He wore very good apparel,
and looked finely. The expression of his
eountenance was, fancied, somewhat
thoughtful, but whether his thoughts were
wandering back to two years ago, when he
was iDaugurated to the great delight of the
very crowd now so eager to shout at the in.

was puzzling over the possibilities of success
or defeat, at the caucus tomorrow night,

the throng. He wore a black felt hat and
gray business coat. He bore his usual serious
look bordering on a frown, and seemed in
no wise moved by the scene around hin. of
course he could not have thought about the
Senatorial caucus because he is not no,o a
candidate Perehance he was thinking of
that line: unhappy is the head that wears

hence his successor would drive his image |
from the public eye.
At the Capitol the Governor and Lieuten-
ant Governor elect were sworn into office by |
Chief Justice Field, who performed the sol
emn office in a dignifed and sufficiently i'm
pressive manner
The procession then moved to the Agricul
tural Pavilion, where, in the presence of
the two Legislative houses, the principal
State officers, many prominent citizens of
the State, and large assemblage of those
without whom there would be no communi-
ties to govern, and who were formerly de-
nominated plebeians, but in latter days,

cred. There were probably 1000 persons
"thar or tharabouts" The inaugural address
was very creditable, and was received with
some applause.
Weller gave the assemblage the informa
tion that Milton 5. Lothian was their Cover
nor, and
"There rose as wild and fierce YELL
AS though -"
it pleased them amazingly.
At the Pavilion tonight there will be a
great time. The ball is all the talk, and the
crowd will doubtless be large one. You
will see statements to the effect that the place
was "thronged with fair women and brave
men," but 1 will contidentially inform you
that courage and good looks unaccompanied
by half eagle, will not ensure admission
and on the other hand, that an hunabre with
that denomination of coin to invest, can get
in without any certificate of his pluck, even
though accommodated by the very plainest
sort of female. The committee of arrange
ments is made up of gentlemen well posted
in such affairs, and very active preparations
have been made l am perfectly confident
that all who go will have ''love of a time"
Tomorrow night comes another tug for the
Senatorship. There was but little activity |
to-day in the discussion of tile chances of
rival candidates. l can give you no new
