No SURRENDER,-The general order re-
Gently issued by Brigadier-G General Sumner,
of the Pacific division of our army, has de-
lighted many hearts in the nation. We have
grown tired of surrenders, and though, OF
course, not an iota of blame rests on any
commander who has surrendered his post TO
the rebels, we have had such a number OF
misfortunes of this kind that the terse order
of General Sumner, "No troops of the army
of the Pacific will ever surrender TO rebels, /"
has cheered and inspirited many a downcast
heart. Reading these brave words, we re
member that General Sumner was he who

was reported TO have shed tears of rage when
Mr.. Lincoln was induced by more cautious
advisers to complete his journey to Wash.

suppress the Southern insurrection we shall
have use for all of that spirit which the
nation affords.

THE UNITED STATES STEAMER SARANAo.-
In relation to this vessel, which was reported
lost off New Orleans in gale, the San
Francisco Alta California of the 18th of Sep
tember says;
We have noticed the arrival at this port of
the United States steam frigate Sdrdnac
commanded by Captain Robert Richie. The
loyal and energetic conduct of this officer
affords a gratifying proof that our navy
possesses an influential and patriotic repre-
sentative on the Pacific coast, who will per-
form his duty without fear or favor. During
the storm of reasonable detection that swept
through the navy and seduced from their al
legiance anumber of officers who basely de-
serted their flag and duty in the time of their
couutrys need, and turned their arms against
a Government that had educated clothed,
fed and pampered them, Captain Robert
Ritchie not only remained true to the flag
and Union, but, by his influence and ener-
getic loyal action, did good service in the
cause of the Constitution and Union. Our
navy can not boast of more loyal crew
than that with which the SdrGRGc is now
manned. On the occasion that the oath of
allegiance was administered on board, Cap
tain Ritchie addressed the crew in patriotic
flag, and desiring those who entertained any
reservation in regard to the obligation, to
step forward and declare their objection; but
of the entire crew not a man refused the
oath, but gave proof Of their devotion in
soul. stirring cheers for the American flag.
The SdrGnGc will be detained for some weeks
at Mare Island for repairing, and we under
stand that she will then probably return to
! Panama.

George Washington said in 1893.

Whatever measures have a tendency to
dissolve the Union, or contribute to violate
or lessen the sovereign authority, ought to be
considered as hostile to the liberty and inde-
pepdence of America, and the authors of
them treated accordingly.
Henry Clay said in 1850;
If any one State, or portion of the people
of any State, choose to place themselves in
military array against the Government of the
Union, am for trying, the strength Of the
Government. / amfor ascertaining whether
wehave got Governmentor not-practical,
efficient, capable of maintaining it's authority,
and of upholding the power and interests
which belong TO Government. Nor, sir, am
to be alarmed or dissuaded from any sach
course by the intimations of the spilling
ofblood. If blood is to be spilled, by whose
fault is it to be spilled2 Upon the suppo
sitioD, maintain it will be the fault of those
who choose to raise the standard of Disunion,
and endeavor to PROSTATE this Government !;
and, sir, when that is done, so long as it
pleases God to give me a voice to express my
sentiments, or an arm, weak aud enfeebled
as it may be by age, that voice and that arm
will be on the side of my country, for the
support of the general authority, aud for the
maintenance of the powers of the Union.
What Washington epjoined and what Clay
exhorted the loyal men of to- day are doing.
And to doubt that they will do it triumph.
sntly would be in some sort to impeach the
divinity of truth and to blot the memories Of
the sainted dead.

FRUtTs OF SECESSION IN ARIzoNA-DeGth
Of Lieutenant kOWry, the Secession Leader in
that Qudrter.-The San Francisco Mirror Of
the 18th of September says:
The sudden change in the affairs of Ari-
zona, by which that Territory deprived itself
of the protection of the United States has
overwhelmed it in anarchy and ruin. There
is no such thing as safety for life or property,
the Mexicans pluhdering the property of the
citizens and sacking the mines, which they
generally take care to destroy after getting
out all the ore which has been extracted,
The Apaches, in revenge for the killing Of
five or six of their number by detachment
of United States troops from Fort Buchanan,
had slain over one hundred Americans be-
tween the Rio Grande and Colorado, and the
roads throughout the country were danger

Lieutenant Mowry, with whom we held a
conversation in our office just prior to his
departure for the Territory, little dreaming
that the hale, ine- looking, soldier like officer
who then spoke to us with such hope and
confidence of the anticipated results of his
expedition would 50 soon be numbered with
the dead. We believe Mr.. Mowry had cast
his lot with the Secessionists-more's the
pity, for a more competent officer it would
have been difficult to find for the srduouS
duties to which he was assigned. We have
as yet heard only the commencement OF the
troubles in Arizona.

intelligence of the death of Colonel Baker,
which contains the following:
ut is with great regret that the Governor,
Commander-in. Chief has learned of the
death of Colonel Baker upon the field of
battle. Although not citizen of Pennsyl.
vania, he had been selected by many of her
sons as their commander, and met his death
while calamity leading them into action.
The same feeling which inspired the soldiers
to regard no State lines when one common
country was in danger, induced the Com
mander in Chief to recognize him while
leading Pennsylvania soldiers, impels him,
now that he is dead, to bear the public testi-
mony TO his gallAntrY and worth.

New PETTIooAT.-A novelty in petticoats
has recently been adopted among fashion
ables. For all but dress, the white petit
coat has been discarded for one of alpaca;
and these have great advantage of the linen
and do not lose their Stiffness. OF course, it
is necessary that if the dress be grenadine,
barege, or other clear texture, the petticoat
must be of the same color. They are made
very full and gored, and have broad black
ribbon or velvet above the hem; sometimes
there is trimming of gathered ribbon put
on in vandykes. The dresses are invariably
caught up at the side to show this under
petticoat Where il is not necessary to
match the tint of the dress, stone color is
the best shade to wear.
