THE GREAT DEFALCATIoN.-The last Pony
brings some further particulars relative to
the heavy defalcation in the Interior De-
partment. Gorden Bailey, the defaulter,
was the law clerk of the Department. and had
been entrusted by Secretary Thompson, with
State bonds amounting to $780, which
were held 10 trust for various Indian tribes.
Bailey loaned these bonds to Russell, the
President of the Pony Express Company,
which were deposited in New York bank
as collateral security for a loan. 1t is
charged that the money thus obtained was
used for speculating in stocks. Russell and
Bailey had both been arrested, and the mat
ter was being investigated at last accounts
from Washington. Itappears that Russell
had given Bailey snndry drafts on the War
Department, equal to the amount of the
bonds illegally loaned, as security, and a
suit had been commenced against the New
York bank to recover the bonds. 1t Is pos
sible that the Government may recover the
bonds or their equivalent.

sECEssIoN NEWS.

The Pony express arrived at Fort Church
i'll on the 14th inst, with another INSTALL
ment of news. The dates from st. Lonis are
to December 3lst, and the intelligence is of
an exciting character.
A revenue cutter in the Charleston har-
Dor had been seized by the authorities of
South Carolina, the captain, who is native
of that State, having resigned. Troops are
said to be pouring into Charleston from
Georgia and other States.
The South Carolina Legislature has or
dered forced loan of five hundred thou
sand dollars, which has been apportioned
among the wealthy men of the State, who
are required to pay their proportions under
the penalty of being considered disafFec-
ted.
The Collector and employees Of the
Charleston Custom House have entered the
service of the State, and commenced collec-
ting duties.
Advices from Florida state that four
fifths of the delegates are in favor Of imme-
date secession. A majority of the Alabama
delegates are said to be in favor of co.ope-
ration with other Southern States.
At meeting OF the Cabinet, held Dec.
2Stb, the South Carolina Commissioners
we're present, but nothing is certainly known
as to what action was taken. 1t is stated
that Holt urged defense, and other members
further evacuation if necessary.
The act ofMajor Anderson, in evacuating
Fort Moultrie is generally commended by
the Union men. Fort Moultrie is compare
lively weak, and might be taken by q mob,
but Fort Sumpter is impreynable, and can
be reduced only by siege. Moultrie and
Castle Pinckney are held by State troops,
but Capt. Humphreys was still holding the
arsenal. No collision was anticipated.
Gen. Wool has written two letters, in
which he sustains Major Anderson, and ur-
ges firm stand against rebellion. He says
If Fort Sumpter is surrendered to the seces-
sionists, in twenty days 100000 men will
take vengeance on those who betray the
Union into the hands of its enemies.
The violent proceedings of South Caro-
lima have put an end to all thoughts Of q
compromise.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-01-17
A FORCED LOAN.

The action of the South Carolina author
ites, 10 levying what is equivalent to a
forced loan of five hundred thousand dol
lars, is pretty good evidence that the fnan-
ces of that State, or Republic, are not in a
very flourishing condition. 1t appears that
the Legislature had been unable to nego-
tiate the loan, except at rninous rates, and
it was then apportioned among the wealthy
men of the State, each of whom was requir-
ed to pay bis proportion, under penalty of
being considered disaffected. We believe
an act has already been passed by the Leg
latuEe, providing for the punishment of dis
affected persons. The loan thus levied will
not be worth twenty-five cents on the dol
Jar in the market, and as South Carolina
has large military force under pay, other
violent measures will have to be resorted
to before many weeks, in order to keep the
machinery Of that Independent government
in motion. During the remainder of Bu-
chanan's term, South Carolina will proba-
bly, collect and appropriate the duties paid
at the Charleston Custom House; bul 1t APP
pears that, for the past year, not enough
has been collected to pay the salaries of the
government employees at that point, and
until the excitement is over no revenue
whatever will be realized from this source.
South Carolina has started out in mad
career Of violence and folly; one despotic
measure will but beget another, and there
is no telling how far the reign Of terror may
be carried, or where it may end. A fine
opening is presented for the re-enactmeni
on small scale of the terrOrs of the French
revolution.
The violent measures which have already
been inaugurated in South Carolina will be
likely to open the eyes of the wealthy men
in such States as Georgia and Alabama
where there is still some freedom of opinion
and will act as q check to the disunior
movement Ia these and other States.

A DESPERATE WoMAE.-Deputy Sheriff
Thompson, of San Francisco, went Monday
morning to the residence of a woman named
Mary Boston, to execute civil process by SER
yinasome papers. The woman became angry,
drew pist' and fred at him, the ball passing
through the front Of his coat without striking
his person. The officer then went back to the
CITY Hall, and taking several other deputies
with him, returned to arrest the woman ior
shooting. They found the door closed ana ias-
tened, and after demanding admittanee IN Vain' ~

and commenced firing at the officers, but for
tunately no one was hurt. She was overpow-
cred and taken to prison.

CENTRAL AMERToA.-By the arrival of the
Uncle Sam we have later news from Central
America. In New Granada, all the towns
bad pronounced against 0spera, and the
Liberals had obtained possession Of the
government. Col. Lopez had one thousand
men well armed, and had routed the gov
ernment forces for the fourth time.
A correspondent of the Panama Star,
writing from Punta Arenas, Costa Rica,
gives it as his opinion that President Bar
rios term of ofiee.will not expire without
revolution. The leading men Of the coun-
try sre dissatisfied, and compare the tyrany
of the present government with their for
mer free political institutions.

PARsoN BRowNLoW ON SECEssIoN.-W.
G. Brownlow, editor Of the Knoxville ITEM
nessee) Whig, writes as follows to the New
York Express:
have from first to last, denounced this Sc
cession movement, as the work of men who de-
serve to hang, and l shall continue it though
every State south of Mason and Dixon's line go
out Of the Union. East Tennessee, composed
Of thirty-one counties, is-al right, and the State
throughout is for the Union, but the secession
movement is gaining strength especially in
Middle and West Tennessee, where there are
more slaves than in this end of the State. II
the Personal liberty laws of the North were re-
pealed; II the fugitive slave law were enforced,
and il this slavery agitation were ceased, the
border States Of Maryland, Virginia, Tennessee,
Kentucky and Missouri, would hold on to the
old ship. But have great fears that these bor-
der States, through sympathy, viii be forced out
have no more doubt that the cotton States are
going out, and that rightaway, than l have that
am writing 10 you.

CONGRESSMAN BuRCH.-The Marysvlle
Express is trying TO prove that Mr. Con-
gresham Burch is not in favor Of the seces-
sion of the Pacific States aud Territories
unless there shall be general breaking up
of the ConfederOcy. What Mr.. Burch's
opinion may be now, we do not, of course,
pretend to know, as be may have changed
his mind since the 22d of November. In
bis ST. Louis letter of that date, he advised
the people of California to Immediately
raise the Bear Flag, and take steps for
the formation of q "CGsarian Republic"
anticipating, IL bis language means any
thing, violent and somewhat dangerous
separation. He may by this time have
learned more of the sentiments Of the peo-
pie Of this State, and probably has some
what modified his opinions.

EDITORIAL AFFRAY.-A shooting affray
occurred at Los Angeles, on the 9th inst.
between H. Hamilton, editor of the Star
aud G. r. Conway, one Of the proprietors Of
the News. The difficulty grew cut of per-
sonal item publishad In the News of the 4ih,
rejecting on Hamilton. The next day Ham
llton met Conway, and the latter expecting
an attack, drew revolver, and fired sever
al shots at Hamilton, the shots taking effect,
one in the right thigh, one in the left, and
one in the right arm. Conway turned and
fed, and Hamilton, who had nothing but a
cane, pursued and gave him severe beat.

THE JAPANESE EMBASSY AT HOMEs-The
news received from Japan, by late arrival
was to the effect that the japanese Embassy
was unnotioed at home on their return ;that
they were not high officials, but were mere
spies sent to examine our country, and re-
port to their government. A private letter
published in the San Francisco Herald,
written by an American merchant residing
at Kanagawa, somewhat cOnHetswith form
er reports. He states thai. the Niagara arriv-
ed at that port on the 9th, remained but an
hour and proceeded to Jeddo.. The men,
bers of the Embassy were landed, at their
own request, in their own boats; in order to
avoid the excitement consequent upon their
return. The writer adds
On the 10th, the "Saginaw" left Kanagawa
for Jeddo, and by invitation | took passage on
our arrival at Jeddo, we went ashore, and were
furnished horses by the japanese, as well as a
guard; rode round the city as far as twenty-five
miles would go; went up to a Tea Garden
which was eighty-seven stone steps Of foot
each. The place is called, as near as could
get the sound, "Bell View !" and the view TO
every foreigner, who is allowed the privilege, is
one Of very great interest One continuous
line OF buildings as far as theseye can reach,
and in every direction, are discemable. Some
| of the streets are fifteen miles in length-wide
and clean-and bear no resemblance to the
| dirty streets of Chinese city. I remained
over two days and returned again on the "Sag-
inaw" to Kanagawa.

BAYARD TAYLOR HIssED.-Bayard Taylor
delivered a lecture before the Mercantile
Library Association of New York. on the
evening of December 18th. His subject was
"Man and Climate" In the course of his
lecture he said:
There was no race, ever known, who did not
possess some instinct Of individual rights.
There were said to be a class Of savages in Bull
paria, who hang all their intellectual men when
they become too prominent, in order to pre-
serve the balance of equality and keep the peo-
pie at peace. In civilized countries the prac-
tice was modified little, for they only muzzle,
instead of hanging them. An instance OF the
latter method occurred few days since at Phil
adelphia, when his (the lecturer's) friend, Mr..
g. w. Curtis, was muzzled in this manner.
This created considerable excitement.
Applause and hisses greeted the lecturers
ears. At first the applause predominated,
but the Kisses rallying, returned to the
charge, and for several minutes there was
fearful conflict for the ascendeucy. At
the end of five minutes it was quite appa-
rent that the Kisses were in the majority,
and both parties subsided. The lecturer
then quietly remarked:
Thought was too old traveller to have a
new sensation, but have now. never before
have been hissed publicly; but must say, that
to be Kissed for advocating freedom of speech
is not so bad after all.
This reply was received with mingled his
ses and applause, which lasted but for amo-
ment, and the matter was dropped by all.
