PArkors AFTER 0FFIcE.-The New York
Times Of recent date, in alluding to the
crowd Of Republican politicians from the
Pacific coast that have congregated in the
East, and ore busy looking after the loaVes
aud f shes, says:
Quite host of patriots" have been here
recently from the Pacific coast, looking af-
ter the Federal patronage to he distributed
by Mr. Lincoln. Among the number are
some Of the least fit men in California TO
occupy public position; men whose success
would nearly, If not quite, extinguish the
the Republican party in that State. In no
part Of tue Union is good Judgment in the
selection Of Federal officials more indispen-
sable to the future success Of the cause Of
Rcpublcanism-and it is to be hoped the
President elect will avoid all commiitals in
behalf Of any applicants until he sball-have
suitable opportunity to ascertain from true
men what appointments are judicious, and
what would reflect discredit upon bis ad-
miuistration.

At about two o'clock this morning. the
building adjoining the Musical Hail 10 this
city was discovered to be on FIRE The
alarm was Immediately given, but owing to
the frail nature Of the tenements the Gre
spread with such amazing rapdity, that
nearly the Whole block bounded by A and
2nd street was a heap of smouldering ruins
before material assistance could be render
ed. We must say thatwith an effective fire
organization the destruction of a large
amount Of property would have been pre-
vented. All present, with the exception Of
a few ehurls, were very anxious to assist in
extinguishing the raging element, but it
was evident that the lack of n competent
person 10 direct, was necessary to prevent
the great confusion and utter want OF pres
ence Of mind, which prevailed Much
credit is due to the men from the Garrison
whose services were valuable. A differ
ence Of opinion prevails regarding the
origin OF the fire. The most likely version
we have heard, is that drunken man in
one of the saloons by his carelessness caused
the misfortune. -.l .tf.fs. -H-r
The following estimate will be found
nearly correct. Musical Hall owned by
the heirs Of j. Wright, $4,000. Barber
shop Of c. Toellner, $500. Boot and
Shoe Store of Mr., Chenette, $4,000. DR.
Hawthorne's Store, $1,000. O'Kean's Sa-
loon, $4,000. Dian & Irbank's Saloon,
$1,000. Smiths Cigar Store, $1,000. Fox's
Saloon, $780, House OF Chinaman, $500
Other buildings and property not enumera,
ted, $4,000. Total loss, $22, 200.

A ScEAP OF HIsroRY, There have been
ten specific attempts to defy the authority
.of the Federal government since the for
nation: ~
The FIRST was in 1852, and was con
spiracy Of some Of the officers Of the fed
eral army TO consolidate the Thirteen States
into one. and confer the supreme power on
Washington. .f,a J. .s,-lr-. eif
The second was in 1886, called "Shay's
insurrcction," in Massachusetts.
The third was in l19l; popularly called
The Whisky Insurrection Of Pennsylva-
MA" E-f1 igle 4 af
The fourth instance was in 1914, by the
Hartford Convention of Federalists.
The fifth, on which occasion the different
sections Of the Union came into collision,
was in 1920, under the adminstration Of
President Monroe, and occurred on the
question Of the admission Of Missouri into
the Union.
The sixth was collision between tho
Legislature of Georgia and the Federal
Government 10 regard to certain lands Civ
en- by the latter 10 The Cherokee Indians.
The 7th was in 1880, with the -Chero-
kees In Georgia.
The eighth was the memorable Nunify-
ineIOrdlnance Of South Carolina in 1889.
The ninth was In nlIS42, ahd occurred In
Rhode IslADd between tie Suffrage Ano-
cintion7 and the State authorities.
The tenth was in 1856, on the part Of
the Mormons who resisted the Federal au-
thoriIies. W Ii'4g

SECRET PACiFc RErEstIc iOReANizArroN
The Stockton Argus, Of the goth, con
tains the following from its correspondent at
Fugitt's, which we presume is somewhere
in San Joaquin county. We are convinced
however, that even il Disunionists are So
cretly working for Pacific Republic, they
cannot accomplish their purpose, except 10
the event Of an utter and irremediable dis
ruption Of the whole Upion-which we are
satisfied will never take place, There
is something iu the wind which l cannot,
as yet, clearly understand. A scheme is
aaOat which, Il we'll inatured, will place
the people Of this State in q precarious
predicament. There is no doubt that se-
cret attempt is being made at Sacramento
to re-organize the militia aud place all the
arms of the State IN the hands Of the COM
paHies thus organized with The understand
ing that all peysons belonging TO these com
'panies are favorable 10 Pacific Republic.
To carry out the plan successfully, secret
associations have beep organized through
out the State, headed by Volney a. How
ard. But few days since, the Senator
from this district, Mr. Wnrmcastle, was
here for the purpose Of instituting subor-
dinate council, and succeeded in obtaining
thirty charter members. The few Union
men in this portion Of the county have a
desire 10 know more OF this movement, bat
have looked in vain te the papers for an
exposition. They. would like to know bow
many 'Warmeastles there are in the Legis-
lature engaged in the work of treason"

E0- Lord Palmersion, 10 a speech at
southampton, referred to the situation Of
Affairs in America. lie said there was too
much reason to fear that the Union, which
had condueed so much to the prosperity Of
the nation, was in danger Of disruption.
lie expressed further hope, that whether
the Union was maintained or dissolved, II
would be accomplished BY amicable means,
so that the world might be spared the
aflicting spectacle ofhostile conflict between
brothers.

cerning West Point, says:

for our graduated cadets, the war between
the United States and Mexico might, and
probably would have lasted some four or
i've years, with, in its FIRST half, more de
feats than victories falling to our share ;

THE PALMETTO FLAG RAISED AND HAULED

metto flag raised on the Pacific coast,
was hoisted yesterday, on board a
schooner going out the slip between
Washington and Clay street wharves.
The thing was observed by several
persons, who ran to the end of the
wharf, close to which the craft was
obliged to be sheered to get by YES.
sci which lay across the entrance to
the slip. They ordered the men il
charge to haul down the obnoxious
bunting, threatening to enforce thciI
| demands in summary manner if it
was not instantly done. Some boys
commenced pelting the man at the
helm with potatoes, of which many
sacks were piled upon the wharf.
Seeing these demonstrations, the men
on board the schooner hastily pulled
the flag down. But this did not salts.
fly the crowd, who ordered the Stars
and Stripes to be run up, which was
instantly done, and the fun was over.
