There are no quoabe changes in the market nor import

The most exciting topic Of discussion in San Francisco
within the last three days grows out OF discussion which
took place at session Of Prcsbytcrans vote touch
ing the duty of the clergy to declare themselves
on the side OF loyalty and against rebellion, and preach
loyal doctrines to their congregations. d. W. A. Scott Of
Calvary church, alone voted against the resolution, and
protested against its adoption He believed the action Of
the late General Assembly the state Of the country,
in adopting the spring resolutions, as exceedingly mis-
cheyious and erroneous lie agreed in The main nan
Their defence Of the same doctrine made in
the late Princeton Repieac He did not believe the
from the standard the church interfere with
civil or political questions There other grave
sons why he could not approve OF the action Of the AS
semby but he could not consider IL proper to Introduce
them into ecclesiastical and spiritual bodies This posi-
ton assumed by Dr. Scott has revived the charges against
him Of sympathsing with secession, and raised much
feeling in the community. There threats of mob
bling his church the next time services are held,
but force Of police has been detailed to pre-
vent any outbreak Some Of the newspapers have
covcrtly encouraged the mob spirit but the nucn
al citizens earnestly advise that Dr. Scott be left in the
hands Of his congregation, who mostly Unionists
Judge John McHenry, formerly of the Fifth District
Court Of New Orleans arrested in san Francisco yes

and join the party that were going where he could get
better pay Not much Importance attached to this af
fair but only shows the constituencies here on tho war
question.
Yho Los Angeles STAR Of the 10th Of September, COM
plains that correspondent, writing from Los Angc.os to
a San FracEcO paper, has misreprescned and greatly
exaggerated the number and dongs of the secessosts
the southern counties. The STR remarks:-We require
troops here for the general protection The condition of
affairs in San Besnardino earnestly demands redress.
The officers Of the law require the prcsencs
them to bring back tho natives who have thrown them
solves into the country In this way the military can be
useful but the foolish parade OF riding the country
in search of seccssonss is not only exceedingly harss
ing to the men but positively detrimental to tho interests
of country. We wish the Alta would pro-
duce its reliable information of two thousand men
completely organized secret, and ready rendezvous
at such place the leaders direct Can there be such
organization without citizens knowing something
about it; and yet this is To every OF Who
the leaders, and where the arms and ammunition?
What object Is to be accomplished
The steamer Panama brings dates from MaZatlan,
Mexico, the 9th She brought seventy three
passengers ss2 Pa in Specie and thirty packages
of metallic
Advices by her state that the city Aarno in Sonora
had been captured by large army from the State u
Sonora.
1t was understood and believed Mazntlan that Van
Dorm advancing towards Sonora with large force.
The family of bon Thomas Robinson, one Of the
weathest citizens of the city OF uaymas has left the
State Of Sonora account Of troubles in that State and
gone to California
Business in Sonora was dull.
Several secessioniss at Mazatlan engaged In de-
nouncing the government Of the United States and all
nccted with il. Subsequently they wishes Mr. Connor the
American Consul to give them OF United states
citizenship, but refused unless they would take
the oath support the constitution and Of
the United States This they refused to do, and dis
posed to be Troublesome, till they found sympathy
among the Mexicans the majority Of tho American in
habtants.
