A SUIT INvoLvING THE Honor OF AN EX-
LEGIs1AroR.-The S. F. Bulletin says:-An
action was commenced on the 3rd inst, in
the Fourth District court, by VIM Thomp-
son against Charles M. Hitchcock, William
Sherman and Joseph G. Tucker. The sworn
complaint sets forth that on the 14th March,
1861. at the city of Sacramento, the said de-
PENDANTS, as SAID plaintiff is informed and be
lieves, for a valuable consideration, made ex
ecuted and delivered to BIS. Lippncot their
promissory note in writing, whereby the said
defendants promised to pay the bearer, for
valuable consideration, the sum Of five hun
dred dollars, OF and after the passage ihro'
the legislature of California during the ses-
sion of 1861, of AN Act to grant certain
persons the right Of way for railroad with
in the corporate limits of the city and coun'
ty of San Francisco, and to run cars thereon,
That said act referred to and stated, by said
title, on said note, is to be found on page
l93 of the State Statutes Of 1861 That
thereafter, on or about the Goth dav of June,
1861, Lippincott sold and delivered said note
for a valuable consideration to the plaintiff,
who is now the owner and holder thereof
That said note is now past due and
wholly due from said defendants, to said
plaintiff, with interest thereon from 17th
April, 1861. Wherefore the plaintiff prays
judgment, etc."
Mr. Sherman has since published card in
the Bulletin, in which he denies he ever gave
such note, or authorized any one to do so
for him. Hitchcock says he was in Europe
and knew nothing about it.

COLONIAL SPEoULATIoNs ON A WAR BE
TWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND ENGLAND -
The British Colonist, discussing the com
tingency of war between England and
America says:
"EsquamaIt would become the rendezvous
Of large fleet, and from there would sail
expeditions to command the Columbia and
capture San Francisco. The want of de
fense would render the latter place an easy
victory. With San Francisco, the Columbia
AND Puget Sounds in our possession, no Of.
fansive operations can disturb u.s. The con-.
centration Of large feet here would have
the effect Of making money plenty.
