SocRATEs.-The Sac. Standard of April
10th had true blue Republican article Of
j." more than considerable ability, over the
signature of Socrates The friends of
the Administration, after cogitating on the
cause of the appearance of the article in the
Standard for length of time, came to the
conclusion that the Administration organ
at the Capital had gone over to the enemy
purchased with British gold. 'Tis said
one distinguished amigo of Old Buck at
tempted to prove by several witnesses that
he had declared more than once he believed
Bolts would throw off /" on the party, and
gave as reason for his opinion, that ultra
men who 'spread it on too thick are just
the ones to fly off in tangents. Don't know
but our friend Bolts might have been hung
in effigy here by hTa old readers had not a
lot of Black Republicans rushed together
and passed resolution unanimously to the
efiec; that they would not have him in their
party. Whoreupon, all avenues of escape
from the Democracy being closed, peace
was restored. Bolts, however, will catch it
from his brethren, and Socrates in turn will
be condemned 10 take something more re-
pulsiye to the stomach than the hemlock.

The GovERNoRs VETo.-The Calaveras Chron-

omnibus bill. The Governor probably expects
some growing. Let him veto the bill for the
benefit of the Henness pass and every bill of the
kind that comes up during the present session,
and he will hear no growing from this county.
But if he signs bill for the benefit of any other
route, and not the one for ours, he will hear of
something to his disadvantage.

Arrested for Contempt.

B. SanbOrn was arrested at Concord by
United States officers on the Sd inst, under
rcquisition from the Senate Committee
Judge Hoard, Of the Supreme Court, has
issued writ Of IIabeas Corpus, and the
hearing is now progressing in this city.
L0ter.-Watsoa Freeman, Jr., Deputy
United States Marshal, aud Carlton, Depu-
ty SergentGt- Arms Of the Uuted States
Senate, called at Sanborn's residence at
8 o'clock at night. Sanborn refused to ac-
company them, when he was handcuffed and
taken to carriage at the door, during
which he struggled violently, and the mem
bers of his family cried murder, fire, aud
otherwise manifested intense alarm.
The excitement spread and the town
bells were wrung, collecting large crowd
Rufus Hosmer, citizen, died suddenly
it is supposed from the excitement the affair
occasioned.
Sauborn was fOrcibly taken from the Off
GERS by the crowd, and kept out of the way
until q writ of habeas corpus conld be obtain
ed. 1t is said the writ has been prepared
for some time in anticipation of the arrest.
Deputy Sheriff Jno. b. Moore, served the
writ of haheas corpus and arrested Sanborn,
which ended the mission of the u S. Mar,
shal's posse, for the time being.
John S. Keys, John A. Andrews and
! Samuel Z. Sewel are counsel for Sanborn
and the U. S. District Attorney, C. L.
Woodbury. and Milton Andrews for the
U S. The hearing is before the full Bench
consisting of Shaw, Metcalf BigelOw, Mer
rick and Hoar
The subject Of the arrest of Sanborn was
introduced before the Legislature in tht
form of a resolution, to employ the STATE
Attorney General for defence. The resoln
tion was briefly debated and laid on tn
table.
Later-Sanborn's discharge was ordered o.
the ground that the Sergeant-of-Arms had n,
power to depute his authority to another. Th
point was raised by counnil, that the jurisdic
tion of the Senates officer was bonded by th,
limits of the district, which point the judg
was not prepared to decide.

INrERNARRIAGE OF RELATIoNs.-Ou leg
islature passed some laws on the subject Of
intermarriage of near relatives. If one
half of what has been affirmed Of the effect
of cousins intermarrying be true, the law
makers have not begun the restraining pro-
cess too early. 1t is said that in Massachu-
setts out Of II families formed by the mar
riage of cousins, there we're % children,
and in Ohio in 873 such families, there were
5000 children. II would thus seem that
the. average number of children is not dim
inished by such intermarriagcs. the Massa-
ehusetts statistics giving 81 children to each
such marriage. But out Of these 95 chill
dren, A were idiots, l3 scrofulous, and on
ly 81 iu tolerable health, while in Ohio
400 out of $500 were either intellectual
Iy or physically defective. In one case o.
the marriage of double cousins, nine chill
dren-all there wero-were idiots of low
grade. Such statistics prove the necessity
Of some vigorous remedy.

The Missouri CONTESTED ELECTION CASE.
The Committee on Elections have had be-
fore them the contested election between
Messrs. Blair and Barrett, Of Missouri, and
Mr. Blair concluded his opening speech.
He made n strong case, and unless it can
be met aud explained away will insure him
his seat. lie showed, by the most conclu-
siye evidence, that the irregularities, fraud
and corrupt conduct on the part of the
Judges in certain precincts, and the miscon-
duct aud ballot box stnfing of the friends
of MIR Barrett in others, will compel the
exclusion Of the entire vote in these precincts
from the count. This will take from Mr.
Barrett upwards of eight hundred votes,
and overcome the majority returned, and
give Blair between two and three hundred
majority. lie also challenged about eight
or nine hundred individual votes cast for
Mr. Barrett, and showed that they were
fraudulent This will bring up Mr.. Blair's
majority to nearly one thousand, which his
friends claim is less than he received The
evidence is said to be very interesting, and
shows a systematic case Of plotting and
fraud never before practiced in this country,
except in the famous Plaquemne fraud
which secured to Van Buren, the vote Of
the State of Louisiana The report of the
committee is looked to with great interest,
aud the discussion in the House is likely

was not FASTENED by any other Influence"

Caleb Gushing delivered a speech ia New
Haven few nights since, in which he defended

with this speech which must have been edifying
to the gentleman. lie mentioned the name Of
VIM. Ii. Seward, and the New Haven PaLlddi-
un describes what followed
"Here a singular scene occurred. A
large number Of the audience applanded
the name of Seward, at which the Demo
Gratis on the platform aud elsewhere raised
hiss. Then, for a minute, all was uproar,
Kisses on one side and applause on the 9th
er, until the applause absolutely drowned
every ether sound, and it was evident tC
all that more than two-thrdS Of the audi
ence were good republicans Mr. Cush
ing at first looked surprised he smiled d
curious smile, perceiving that be had an
unusual audience to deal with, and at once
struck into a very moderate tone OF remark
The Democratic leaders on the platform
ere also greatly surprised and diSconcert
ed at this sudden revelation and whispered
together. Mr.. Cushing went on. He (Sew-
ard) is the man who may be and probably
will be the standrad-bearer Of that party,
Applause !; it is best that it should be so.
Here the applause was completely over
whelming. Well, gentlemen, | say moth
ing against Mr. Seward personally"
