PROSPECT OF ADJoURNINo. men,
bers Of the Legislature receive but five
dollars day now for their great services,
which may influence a majority Of them
to bring the session TO speedy close. It
is universally conceded that it is the
weakest Legislature that has ever assem-
bled in California.

Election Ofan United states Senator.
The long agony is over n corrupt COM
bination has triumphed, and General
James A. NcDougall, once Democrat
but now Republican, has been rewarded
for his treachery by being elected to the
United States Senate. The Douglas men,
bers Of the Legislature, with few hon
orablc exceptions-we regret that Con-
ness Is not among the number" follow
ing In the footsteps Of their illustrious
predecessor" in Oregon, fused with the
Republicans, and defeated the regular
Democracy. This lie triumph respecta-
bic men would be ashamed OF, but We
presume none Of those who voted for Nc
Dougall have much shame left 1t was
charged on the floor by responsible par
ties, and the charge was neither refutcd
nor denied, that McDougall had signed
an agreement to the Republican party, to
support the Republican Administration,
and to assist in building up the Republi-
can party on the Pacific coast" Mr.. Las
peyre exhibited paper which he stated
was the agreement, and he challenged de-
NAL or investigation. Notwithstanding
this positive and irrefutable proof men
protesting to be Democrats voted for the
favorite and associate and partisan Of the
Republican partyl They will scarcely
have the assurance hereafter to claim to
be Democrats. The following is the vote,
which We record fer future use

The State HnOcratic O5htral Consult
tss met in Sinl FrancissO e. Tuesday list,
and every member YES present With the
exception of two. From = tdsgrsPhic
dispatch to the Sacramento Union, We
learn that the "Committee adopted an ad-
dress to the Democracy. II acknowledges
all as Democrats who will subscribe to
the Crittenden Compromise resolutions
No other measure was adopted referring
to reconstruction Of the party. The test
for voters at the next primary election
will be: Are you opposed to cOersiOns
Are you in favor Of amendments to the
Constitution in accordance with the doc.
trines laid down by the Peace Convcn.
tiOnI" A private dispatch informs US
that the greatest harmony prevailed, and
that the most encouraging reports were
received from every part Of the State.
The Committee called q Convention to
nominate . State ticket on the 18th Of
June, which will give the nominees ample
time to thoroughly canvass the State.
What the Douglas State Central Com
mittee will do, after the action Of the rep
resentatives Of their party in the Legisla-
ture, it is not so easy to conjecture. The
Chairman Of it, we hardly think, will
agree to fuse with the Republicans; and
a majority Of the members in this county,
il We are correctly informed, arc favOra.
BILE to uniting the Democratic party on
the platform proposed above McDougall,
now that he is elected Senator, may have
more influence with his party than IIoec,
and MS he is under obligations to the r.
publicnns and has pledged himself to "aS.

Committee to oppose q reconstruction OF
the Democratic party. in order to give the
State to his Republican allies. II was so
nominated in the bond" and he is too
honorable q man to viclNte q solemn
pledge. We are satisfied that those he
can influence will follow him into the
Republican camp, but a vast majority Of
the honest and rejecting will rcpudiu,e
him and scorn his advice, and again unite
with the party from which they struyed
in q moment Of excitement and without
reflection. The test adopted by the Dem
ocratic Central Committee is unobjecton.

DEAR Dan: tits time that ShOuId renew my
correspondence viii the DEnOcRAI. 10 doing
so proceed to give you eursofy review d
matters and things 10 and ground the Capital.
The Capital removal is again being aRitsted.
Nothing will come of it, however, for take il
for granted that il is permanently located in
Sacramento, and that 10 the future legislators
will continue To grace or disgrace-as the case
may be-this swamp and overnOwed land city.
There seems to be some QUARREL between the
members or the Legislature and the citizens Of
this place; the former accuse the latter n inhOs
ptality and general want Of courtesy the
latter retort and charge the former with extOr-
Jon, or n desire to compel extra attention /;
therefore, say they, not q cent for tribute"
have eSpoused no side Of the quarrel, but IL
had = say in the matter, would settle the difi.
Guilty BY removing the Capitol to Plscerville.
think such = disposition Of the question would
settle all disputes and alIsy al quArrelS. Phl.
cerville is a picturesque city. Its citizens have
spirit and enterprise, are open handed and hos
pitable, and are not apt to forget benefits re-
ceived.
BuLEHEAD.
Another scheme for the building Of bulk
head, In the harborof San Francisco, is before
one branch Of the Legislature. Its provisions
am informed are very fair deprived of many
Of the features that made Parsons scheme OBJ
jectionable. Some Of the San Francisco jour.
mails laugh at the idea Of = Bulkhead Bill be-
coming law. do not think It at all extrava-
giant. Certainly among all intelligent people
the necessity Of such u work Is tacitly admit
ted. The only question that remains to be set
tied is the adoption Of some feasible plau.-
What kind Of franchise shall be granted tn the
parties? who will build the Bulkhead? aud who
shall the grantees be?
SENATORIAL.
M Senator elected after ALL Isn't II aggra-
waiting to have ones hand on the brilliant prize
almost, and then 90 swinging away down into
the surging cloud Of asprants again. Such is
Gen. McDougaIl's position. lie came within
one vote Of being elected. There were ll3
votes cast, Of which McDougall received only
So; but 10 the confusion, clanor and excite
ment, strange to say clerks and tcllers made
mistake and left out Of the final count two votes
one cast BY Senator Leet for Casserly, and
one by Senator Watkins for Major Anderson.
which you perceive changed the FINAL result.
Some ardent outside friends Of McDougall con-
tend for the legality Of his election, on the
strength Of the declaration Of the President OF
the Senate and Speaker Of the House. but that
is taking u very superficial and partisan view
Of the matter. The Law says plainly and clearly
that it takes u majority Of all the votes cast in
a Joint Convention to elect Senator therefore
Maj"r Anderson, with his one vote, is as much
Senator as McDougail. The whole matter is
in middle. and know not whether the pres
ent Legislature will resolve order out Of all This
chaos.
