LATER FROM MExIco.-The Mexican Ex-
traordnary of February 23d contains the an-
nexed intelligence
According to the Progresso, of Vera Cruz,
ID. Manuel Escandon has arrived at that port
on his return from the United States and is to
commence work at once on the railroad from
Vera Cruz to the capital
The question Of the removal Of the seat of
the Federal Government is still agitated.
General Uraga has accepted the appoint
ment rendered HIM as Minister Plenipotentiary
of the Mexican Republic near the Government
of the United States.
Senor ID. Antonio de la Fuente has been ma
med Minister Plenipotentiary Of the Mexican
Republic TO reside at Paris. Senor Fuente
has accepted this appointment, aud leaves at
once for the scene of his duties.
1t is announced by one Of the reactionary
journals that Madame Miramon embarked at
Vera Cruz, on the 18th, for Havana.
d. Fermin Gomez Farias has been named

STRING On.-The discovery of springs of
oil so near TO us as the extreme southern part
OF Humboldt county, has naturally developed
a general desire among our citizens to know
the varied uses of the article by which alone
its value can be determined. We have reason
to believe, however, that it is quite different in
its nature from that of the wells in Pennsylva-
MIA, which are now acknowledged to DC rich
accession to the resources of the country vet
there is similarity in their normal condition
The Pennsylvania oil is used for the following
purposes
lst. In medicine it has long been used under
tie name of Seneca oil, and is a valuable lin-
ment, possessing nearly all tie virtues of arn-
Gu, etc.
I'd. As a solvent Of gum, gutta percha, In
dia rubber, ETC., it is said TO be preferable to
any other article.
Sd. In the manufacture of gas it is said to
be cheaper and better than the best fish OIL
4th 1t is now used to a certain extent, for
lubricating purposes, but experiments are in
progress which Justify the belief that it can be
made the very best lubricator in the world
5th. For export, it is WORTH at present, all
it costs, but is extensively shipped to foreign
markets.
Otn- as an Illuminating OIL, III eXceiS any
thing yet produced. 1t is already adopted to
a large extent by the various railroad lines,
and the General Government has just closed
large contract for it to supply the lighthouses.
In fact, it possesses twenty-five per cent. more
Illuminating power than the best coal oil, and
from the fact that it does not chill in the cold,
is far superior to the best sperm oil. In fact,
coal oil no longer pays for making, and soon
the poor whale will only be followed for bis
bone.
The question is quite forcibly suggested,
upon reading the foregoing. have we not mis-.
taken the genuine for coal oil p Sonoma Jour

A NEW DoDGE.-A few days since as q
couple of miners were passing alorg over Gold
Hill, one of them observed large Dutch pipe
lying in the trail which be picked up. remark.
ing that it was just what be wanted. Per-
eeiving that it was filled, before lighting, he
thrust his knife blade into the bowl. to see that
it was all right The blade coming in contact
with some hard substance he emptied the bowl
to learn what it was, when he discovered fine
specimen of gold quartz, worth about 81
Some miner, at work in drift. had doubtless
picked up the specimen, and concealed it in
his pipe and lost both on his way home The
loss to quartz operators from this kind of spec
ulation is enormous, and calls for some especial
legislative protection.

PAINFUL AccIDENr.-Mr. G. w. Crevling
while engaged at work near Rattlesnake Greek.
some tea days since, had his left instep acci-
dentaly wounded by the fall of a cross cut saw
upon it, with the teeth downwards, resulting
in few punctures, which at the time were
thought to be unimportant. In the course of
a few days the wound appeared TO be nearly
healed, bn; renewed exposure induced subsequent
Inflammation, which resulted in the liberation
and destruction of one or more bones OF the
Instep. At this period he called on DR.. Tomp-
klns, who advised the excision of the remaining
diseased bones, aud on Wednesday last pro-
ceeded to perform the operation for removing
several bones of the instep, when it was found
That liberation of the foot was so extensive a.
70 threaten its total destruction. A consulta-
uon was called, which resulted in decision to
make an effort still to save ihe remainder of
,ne foot The wound was then dressed, and
nas since progressed so favorably as to awaken
Tue most sanguine hopes of its recovery.

Action of the Missouri State Convention.

The State Convention ordered by the Leg
lsiature OF Missouri is now in session. 1t is
an unaaulteraied, unconditional Union body,
so much so that the Legislature is very much
chagrlned for eallin. it, aud could it be dis
pensed with as easily as it was created, the act
would pass the Legislature, very quickly. The
Convention was ordered to convene in Jefer-
son CITY, but the accommodations there were
so limited and unequal to the comfort OF the
Convention that an adjournment to ST. Louis
was ordered, by a vote of SO to 81 This SEEM
ed death blow to the Secessionists, as it was
flying from secession atmosphere to the bosom
of 5000 majority for unconditional Union men,
Upon the only test question taken, the vote
for the Union stood 60, ana against it 35.-
This was on q proposition to require every
delegate TO swear 10 support the Constitution
OF the United States, as well as that of the
State OF Missouri. The conditional Secession
lists urged this view very strong-that, if the
oath was taken, it was perjury to secede from
The Unlon; but, no matter, the oath was Or
dered The Convention also, Oh motion Of a
g Black Republican delegate from st. Louis,
elected an unconditional Union man permanent
Chairman. Ex-Gov. Sterling Price, Commits
sioner from Georgia to urge the Union men of
Missouri with the Southern Confederacy, ap-
peared at Jefferson City. and was refused
an audience by the Convention, but procured
1t from the Governor of the State and the
Legislature. The Governor made fierce Sc
cesslon speech on the reception Of the Commit
tee, which he hailed in the Cotton States as an
evidence of sympathy. The Convention COM
menced its session in this city on the 4th, when
a Committee on Federal Relations was order
ed, to whom all proposition proposing change
10 the Federal Relations OF the State shall be
referred. A motion was made to give an au-
dience to the Commissioner from Georgia,
when Judge Sample Orr, the Union candidate
for Governor in August last, denounced the
mission of the Georgia ambassador as treason
able, and thought he ought not to be received,
but after discussion, it appeared that it was
best to receive him, on the ground that it
would leave the door open to any future ar
rangement, and, that some time Missouri might
want to send Commissioner to Georgia, to
urge her return to the Union, and that if her
present Commissioner should be shut out that
the insult would be remembered Many Union
men voted therefore to hear him-the vote
standing, ayes 62 nays 80. There is signif-
cance in this, as the thirty-fve will IN no event
sign secession ordinance, and enough others
belonging to the majority of this vote will go
with them TO defeat any secession plan. As
fifty members make a majority, there is no
danger of secession succeeding. On the 5th,
there were two antcoercon resolutions passed
and two strong unequivocal speeches made
One of the ST Louis delegates, also, offered a
resolution dissenting from the doctrines advo-

AN AFFRAY BETWEEN TWO MEN AND BOTH
kILLED.-A terrible affair occurred at the
Garibaldi, or Italian House, near Pine Grove,
on "Wednesday afternoon the 10Th inst, be-
tween an Italian named Augustine Longinotti,
OF Nolcano, and an Austrian named Elijah
Daniel, of the g Gate" in which both the par
ties lost their lives on the spot. The body of
Daniel was brought to place near Jackson,
on Tuesday, and an inquest held by Coroner
W. E. Field. We make up our statement of
the matter from the testimony then and there
given. Elijah Daniel and others, were seated
at a table i'll the Italian House, eating salad,
when Augustine Longinotei sufficiently under
the ufluence OF liquor to feel merry, came into
the room and threw knife upon the table,
The intruder was expostulated with and en-
treated to retire quietly, or go to bed, and not
make any disturbance Daniel took Longin-
etti by the hand, told him he was his friend
led him outside the door, turned to go in the
house again. when he was stabbed in the breast
by Longinotti. Daniel then drew a revolving
pistol and fired three shots. At the third fire
Longnotti fell and expired, Daniel falling
backward and expiring at the same Instant
The witnesses before the inquest on the body
of Daniel, two Austrians and two Italans)
insisted that Daniel made none but the most
friendly demonstrations towards Longnotti
until the stab was given, and that no one pres
ent said or did anything to create disturbance,
or to instigate the difficulty. We understand,
however, that two teamsters, who happened to
be passing by will give somewhat different
version of the matter The body of Longinot-
ii was taken to Valcano, where an inquest
would, no doubt, be held, and when, probably
some new developments would be made. If
report of the same can be had before going to
press, it will be appended. Amador Ledger.
