Arrival of tho Pony Express.

IONI N EAhNhAS WV I'VE
The Pony Express, with California dates
to the 18th met, passed here at $50 this
afternoon.
The debate on the Union resolutions was
continued in each branch Of the Legislature.
and the Assembly finally passed resolutions
endorsing the Crittenden compromise and the
views expressed by Messrs. Douglas end
Breckenridge in opposition to coercive meas
ures. The Democratic papers urge the
senate's concurring in these resolutions,
which is regarded as an indication that the
Douglas and Breckenridge wings are to unite
in one Democratic party, as it existed prior
to Buchanan's Administration.
Several more attempts have been made in
the Assembly to concur in the Senate's res
o'ution fixing the Goth inst for joint con-
to elect U. s. Senator, but each
time without success. The Republicans and
Democrats continue to act
together towards staving of on election.

yesterday, s"twin rslio' Of q jack-oak tree,
which is certainly out Of the ordinary course
of nature. 1t consists of the two main forks
Of the tree, Joined together about six feet
from where they branohed out by an arm or
limb passing between them horizontally;
and it would puszls the most learned natu

this arm is an ofshoot. Mr.. Hustled discov-

South Carolina disapproves the action
of the Montgomery Convention or Congress.
Is she going to submit to it 2 Is she such
poor-spirited miserable "su6missionist' as to
do that?
Ear The New York Times processes not

She has talked for some time of aiming at
Fort Sumter.

cessionists are looking to see what will turn
up. PERHAPS their own eyes will turn up
when they do see.

fT Some of the prominent secessionists
of Tennessee say they will quit the State on
account OF her late vote for the Mon. So
Tennessee did herself more good by that
vote than she expected.

recent high water. This is the third or
fourth time it has been lost within as many
years. We learn that the last time it was
put up, the piles, instead of being driven Sc
curely into the ground, were merely placed
upon the loose sand. OF course they could
not withstand the avalanche of floating ice
which came down against them. This is
bad work. 1t is certainly time. that the
authorities should profit by their experience
in building bridges at this point.
