-. McDorGAII,s SPEEcH.-The Unlon

GEN. McDOUGALLs SPEECH.-The Union
Of Monday, gives Photographic report of
the speech Of Gen. James A. MeDougall,
delivered in the Assembly Hall last Satur-
day evening. 1t is an able effort. lie
reviewed at some length the late manifesto
Of V. 4. Howard in favor Of Pacific Re-
public, aud regretted to see that the party
Of which Mr.. Howard was a representative
was growing on this coast. He was totally
opposed to the scheme. We have neither
the population, the wealth, nor means Of
defensive war, and rivalry would imme-
dlately begin between France and England
for the control of our policy. Both Of
those nations have long coveted the bay of
san Francisco, as the key to the commerce
of the Pacific, and our political parties
would soon be divided on the question as
TO whether English or French influence
should control on this coast He eontended
that State had no right to secede, and
thought all that was necessary to put down
secession was for the government to exhibit
its power. He did not believe a peaceable
dissolution possible, and if the Government
does not exhibit its power until anarchy is
in the ascendant, then rivers of blood must
flow.

JAPAN.-The latest dates from Japan
states that the embassy was coolly received
on its return by the japanese. The valua.
BILE presents sent to the Tycoon by our Gov
crnment aud by individuals, were accepted
with reluctance and bad grace, and the SER
vice of the agents intrusted with the mis-
sion of explaining the use of the machinery
presented to the Emperor, were insultingly
rejected. Affairs with Japan are now in a
worse condition than before the visit of the
embassy.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-01-31

COLLECTOR WAsHIEOToN.-We are in-
formed that Colonel Washington, Collector
Of San Francisco, has been approached by
secessionists, who urged him to retain all
Che money that came into his hands, for the
benefit of tho Pacific Republic. But the
Conspirators met with an unexpected re-
buff. Col. Washington told them that he
had given bonds for the faithful discharge
Of bis duty, and that every dollar which
came into his hands should be paid over to
the order Of the Government.

PONY NEWS.

The Pony express arrived at Fort Church
III. Yesterday afternoon, with two days la
ter news. The intelligence is not import
ant.
The Convention of Alabama had passed
the secession ordinance by a vote OF 6l TO
80, and invited the other slave States to
meet in convention at Montgomery, on the
4th of February.
1t is rumored that the Federal troops bad
abandoned all the forts in Pensacola bar
Dor, except Fort Pickens, where three hun
dred men had concentrated.
Lieut.. Talbot had arrived at Washington
with dispatches from Major Anderson. His
report Of the condition Of Fort Sumpter is
not so favorable as the Government had
believed, but be thinks it may hold out for
two months. It is said that the Admins
tra.ion has determined to send supplies at
all hazards. The Brooklyn will assail the
hostile batteries, while another war vessel
takes in the Star of the West.
The Star of the West had arrived safely
at New York. No person on board was
hurt by the shots fired at Charleston.
A Charleston dispatch says that the
Brooklyn had arrived off the barbor. Dis
satisfaction is reported to exist among the
troops at Fort Sumpter. Col. Hayne, in
behalf Of Sontb Carolina, and Lieut.. Hall,
from Fort Sumpter, had left for Washing
ton.
John A. Dix has been confirmed as Sec
retary of the Treasury, and it is rumored
that w. o. Butler will be appointed secre-
tary of War.
1t is stated that the President has deter
mined to purge the Executive Department
of every one who breaches secession.
At Norfolk, on the llth, steamer took
powder from the magazine, and put to sea
Her destination was unknown.
Washington letter writer's state that
difficulty took place on the evening of the
10th, at dinner party. between Gen. Sc oft
and Senator Toombs; that q challenge had
passed, and the matter was in the hands Of
seconds.

FEES IN OFFICE.-The San Francisco
Spirit of the Times, in referring to that pOr-
ton of the Governors Message relative to
fees in Office, says:
eve wish the Governor had called alten-
ton to a State Office, where the fees are
said to amount to at least twenty thou
sand dollars per annum, and some even
estimate them at thirty thousand dol
lars per annum. Be that as it may, our own
view of the matter is, that the fees Of that
Office are entirely too high and should be
cut down to rate which would not be so
Onerous as they are at present on those who
have cases in the Supreme Court. We trust
that the present Legislature will take cog
nizance Of this matter and upon proper in
vestigation reduce the fees of the Clerk of
the Supreme Court, to q standard more
consistent with the times"

MONUMENTAL q meeting Of the San
Francisco Hibernian Society, held one eve-
ming last week, it was determined to erect
suitable monument to the memory OF the
Irish patriot, T. b. McMannus. A commit
Zee of ten was appointed to carry out the
objects of the meeting, and sub-commit-
tee of five to draft an address to the Irish
men Of California, requesting did.

DEATH OF JUDGE THoRNToN.-Harry j.
Thornton died at his residence in Alameda
county on Saturday last, of paralysis. He
had been suffering with that disease for
some time, and bis death was not altogether
unexpected. Judge Thornton was native
Of Alabama, and came to California in 1852
as one of the Land Commissioners lie was
sxty-four years old.

Snow SHOE ExERoIsE.-A club has been
formed at Onion valley, Plumas county, the
members of which assemble every Sunday and
exercise, and contest on snow shoes for q
champion belt, valued at S25. The winner
holds the belt until some one comes along who
is heeter on the shoes. The Mountain Messen-
ger says it is rare fun, invigorating, develop
er Of the wind, and better for sickly ones than
cod liver oil or hypophosphites of lime and
soda.

ANDREW JoHNsoN.-The Nashville Ban
ner noticing the recent burning in ef1gy of
Senator johnson, at Memphis, says: Moth

Andy. He will make the last Of them
ashamed of themselves before twelve
month, and we venture in that time not

following:
"The .recent election has demonstrated, 70

That there Is sufficient number Of ready tools

through the ballOt-5ox in accordance with it's

than anything else to this result. +
How her people will endure the yoke they have
assumed. remains to be seen. There are thou.
sands aYong the best Of them who will spurn
The alliance and embrace the fret opportunity
TO sever their connection with the State they
were once proud to own as their mother. The
territory OF Maryland may be secured TO the
Norih, but tho foioer of her citizenship will
sooner or later, be transplanted 10 more con.

To this the Kent NeWs replies:

cannot live in The gOod old UniOn loving State
Of Maryland, let them depart as early as pos.
sible, but we can tell them that the Isng and

that it encircles the whole country, and intends

A WORD FROM Missouri An ex.member of
Congress passed through Baltimore a day or
two ago, and stated To a friend that Maryland
was a" heaven on earth when compared TO
his State. There. he says the families are at
variance, continually quarrellng with each
other. and whole neighborhoods in a state of
revolution. Parents aud children not holding
any social intercourse, and the most lamentabls
and bitter state OF things existing among that
part Of the inhabitants Of Missouri be came
irsm. The report of this gentlemen may bs re-.

OPERATIONS ON THE SoUTH CARoLINA CoAsr.
Letters from Hilton Head give an account ol
the progress of our army in that quarter. Two
docks have been built, plank road laid, i'm
mense storehouses put up to receive the con-
tents OF the vessels. ovens erected. post Office
established, simultaneously with the prosecu-
ton of more purely military labors. Every.
thing now wears an orderly appearance about
the army. Hamilton's Light Battery has the
advanced position. Black gangs are worked on
the shore, or been used as oarsmen blacks
have served as scouts and guides in the recon-
noissances. Crowds of the women and children
may be seen in various parts of the camps, but
especially near headquarters. where they in
habit their old huts still. There they receive
their ratious; there they build fires to cook
THAR food or do their washing. and cluster into
odd-lookIng groups, picturesque for all thsir
squalor.

In reference to the cotton question, one inter-
estIng fact is stated in the Calcutta English.
mdn-to wit, that the Manchester manufac ctur.
ers have done nothing either to further the
growth Of cotton in India, or to take of the
stock on hand in the up-country depots. The
London Times attributes this not only to a Lin.
gering hope in reference to the American cup.
ply, but to the fact that there is glut of COL
ton goods on hand, and that the msnufaclur.
ers. in cutIailiug operations now, are only do.
ing what they would soon have been obliged
to do.

Sitting lonely, ever lonely,

Sitting lonely, ever lonely,
Waiting, waiting for one ouly,
Thus l count the weary moments passing by
And the heavy evening gloom
.. Gathers slowly in the room,
And the chill November darkness dims the sky
Now the COT ntless busy feet
Cross each other in the street,
Aud watch the faces fitting past my door:
But the step that fingered nightly,
And the hand that raped so lightly,
And the face that beamed so brightly,
Came no more!
BY the firelights fitful cleaning
am dreaming. ever dreaming,
And the rain is slowly falling all around,
And voices that are nearest,
OF friends the best and dearest,
Appear to have a strange and distant sound.
Now the weary wind is signing,
And the murky day is dying,
And the withered leaves lie scattered round MI
door;
But that voice whose gentle greeting,
Set this heart so wildly beating
At each fond and frequent meeting,
Comes no more!
