THE GALLANT vALLANDIGHAM.

The short time Mr.. yilandigham, Of Ohio,
has been in the House this session, has prov
ed to The people that he is the leader they
have been looking for. He Is thoroughly
aroused to the sad aud mournlal condition
of our country, and though standing amid the
fallen temple Of Constitutional Liberty, he
firmly, like another Samson, bears up its
pillars. The other day he offered an amend !
ment that no part Of the army appropriation
be used " for s,abjugafilg the South or a0ot-
ishing slavery" but u ,oas uofed down. Let
this be noted. Mr.. Everett may as we'll

ARMY MATTERS.

\ The Northwestern part Of the State. which
has been the scene OF no little disaster TO
our cause, has been assigned to the command
of Brig. Gen. w. w. Loring, who set off
for bis post this morning. General Loring
was Colonel Of rifles in the United States
Army, and has just reached here from New
Mexico, of which department he had com
mand at the time of his resignation. He is
citizen Of Florida. and wasappointed from
civil life in the Mexican war as Major, and
was continued in the service after the end
Of the war in the Mounted Rifles. lie sery-
ed CALAMITY in Mexico. and lost an arm at
ChepaItepee. lie has seen q great deal
Of service in Oregon, Washington. and 9TH
err portions Of the far West, against The In
dams, and is one Of che nost energetic and
efficient officers in the service. He has had
much experience in warfare. and is peculi-
arly fitted for the command that has now
been assigned him. In the course ofa week
or ten DAYS he will have command Of If
teen thousand men. and we trust he will be
able to wipe out Nc ClelIan lrem the theatre
Of his much boosted exploits
Gen. Loring travelled East with Gen. Al
bert y. Johnston. late Of the United States
Army, in command of the Army in Utah,
whose presence has been anxiously expected
for some time. Gen. Al. s. Johnston will be
in Richmond in the course Of week. Ne
will be at once assigned 70 some most inn
portant command with the rank Of full Gen
eral. Rumor seems 10 authorize the coAjee-
ture that Gen. A.. s. Johnston will be placed
at the head of all operations in the Missis-
sippi Valley. lie is Kentnekian By birth
and citizenship, but promptly resigned an
hearing Of the transactions OF April. Hav-
ing to make his way overland. bis journey
to the East has necessarily been pniraoted.

Tor Sherman aud his men must have had.

fellows had had enough Of dying; but no.
we see by ian eye witnesses account that
this same Shermans Battery was dealing
death and destruction, when "a single com

captured the entire battery! MOI con-
tent with this, these ilnmortals were man

DESTROYED BY the seth Virginia, again BY

Editorial Correspondence.
SAN FRAsoIsco, March 20, 1861.

The greater portion Of the past week in San
Francisco, has been unusually warm, although
to day, the city is disposed to assume its want
ed dusty and windy appearance. Have spent
the greater portion of the time since my arri-
VAL in picking little conveniences and luxuries
for the trip to Panama.
Last evening, in company with G. f. Low
Esq, of Marysvie, attended the lecture Of
the Rev rHos. STARR KING, at Platts' Music
Hall. Mr.. King is indeed, an elegant gentle
man, and held the vast audience spelbound
for the two hours occupied in its delivery. l
will not attempt synopsis of his lecture, as
you will probably have the opportunity of
reading it, as l understand it will be published
by the Mercantile Library Association. In
lecturing upon the character of Daniel Web
ster, Mr.. King necessarily supported the Con-
sttution and Union of the country.
Lincolns Inaugural exctes some comment,
amongst the gentlemanly dwellers at the Ori-
entail, although it is not the resort of politi.
clans. 1t will be seen that Mr.. Lincoln does
not touch upon the great and vital Republican
doctrine-the prohibition Of Slavery in the
Territories. His neglect to do so, while it will
save him the ultra Republican or abolition
sentiment which secured his election, will ena-
BILE HIM to have a conservative and more ma
tional and popular administration. | confess
to an endorsement of that portion of the In
augural, which announces determination to
sustain the laws of the Uuon and protect the
Federal property. The Federal Government
cannot do less, and should civil war follow, it
will be the act of traitors, not of the govern
ment. If the secessionists must destroy the
Government, or 6ght,-let 'em fight, and be
hanged. Lincoln presents very good view of
the case when he tells the secesslonists that
hey have no oaths registered in Heaven, to
destroy the Government, while his oath is there
registered to preserve it and transmit to pos
terity. Let him do it, or sink into the con.
tempt that has engulphed Buchanan.
Lincolns Cabinet was announced on the
Bulletin board this morning. vi course you

The steamer Golden Age, arrived yesterday
forenoon, having in tow the disabled steamer

whose larboard paddle wheel has commenced a

port, however, by the help of cable, as was the
steamer Uncle Sam.

President Lincolns Inaugural.

We are in receipt Of the Inaugural of Pres
ident Lincoln, by the last Pony. AS State
paper, it will compare favorably with that Of
most of the Presidents; it shows a scholarly
ability in its frame work. and contains such
sentiments and ideas as would do honor TO any
consistent, Union-loving patriot. 1t is con-
sistent address, aud the only kind that the
responsible attitude the President bears to the
People and Constitution would warrant. Be-
fore its delivery he had just taken the oath
required by the Constitution, to faithfully ere-
cute the office Of President Of the United States,
and to the best Of his ability to preserre protect,
and defend the Constitution of the United
States, and, says the Constitution, it shall be
his duty q to take care that the laws be faith
fully executed"
The secessionists see coercion and civil war,
painted throughout the address, and make a
great blow about the last hope being destroyed;
but we have looked in vain for any war clause
in it. If, when he says to the secessionsts,
that the Government will not assail them
without they are the aggressors, and that he
will faithfully execute the laws in all the States,
unless the American people shall withhold the
requisite means, and that he will hold and de-
fend, the property belonging TO the Govern
ment, as required by the Constitution and laws,
means coercion and civil war; then it is such
coercion and war as the Constitution and laws
of the United States and laws of Nature, war
rant; for self-defence of person and property
is the first great law of our nature.
We must admit that the inaugural is much
milder and more conservative paper than we
had been led to expect from the champion of
the Chicago platform. But, since the cars
are in motion" we presume the President has
thought best to retire somewhat, from the
danger of standing on the extreme edge" of
the platform and this precaution of the new
President-must be conceded-is statesman
like, if not patriotic. We cannot but regard
it as q Union document-consistent with the
position of its author, under the responsibility
duu SOltlIuIty VI us OlliCldl Odlu. Ii tue utW
President only sticks to the policy he fore
shadows in his address, and will not be induced
to recede, as the defunct old Public Function
airy did from his, then we predict, that his Ad-
mnistration may not be q failure, and that the
country will gradually seek its equilibrium
Mr. Lincon's accession to the Presidency, at
this time, is so radically different from that of
any of his predecessors, that we are led to ex-
pect much, in which We may be disappointed ;
our only hope is, that it all may rebound to
the future success of a Union-loving, National
Democracy There is such living Democra-
cy in the country, and upon the faith and rec
titude of its principles, and the patriotism of
Its advocates and supporters, we look for a
perpetual Union, administered with justice and
cnnalltY.

Our New Senator.

On the goth inst. the Legislature, in Joint
Convention, ended the Senatorial contest by
electing Gen. James A. McDougal to fill the
place of the old Lime Pointer, who, it is sup
posed, will enter into contract with the horde
of l44 Republican Office seekers now in Wash
ington City, for transportation by the Pacific
Mail S. S. Co. to their homes in California
We hail the election of Gen McDougal as a
triumph over secession in all its hideous shapes,
and as a rebuke to wire.workers and political
tricksters. The roar of Indignation set up by
the secession organs, assures us that Union
man has triumphed over all their Vaccinations.
We all know The Gen'l to be a man of sterling
ability as statesman Of undoubted integrity
as a citizen and patriot conservative in his
political views, and one in whom the people
can safely repose confidence in the time of
trouble and need And we cannot help smil-
ing at the puny efforts of those who, knolc only
how to pull down and destroy, III vain at
tempt to reduce high and noble character to
their own inferior level We congratulate the
people of California upon the elevation Of such
an able representative TO the responsible posi-
ton of U. S. Senator, as we feel confident
Gen. McDougal will make. He is a Calfor-
nian, in the full sense of the term; all his in
teTests. family and future hopes are here, and
from his future course in Congress, we can rest
assured, that California interests will receive
his first attention. We consider his election
behind the record and certificate of the Con
venton.

A NOVEL Foor RAcE-The Yreka Union
says: A foot race was run near town last
Thursday, between John Good and John Rod
irego, certainly novel in its character. The
distance was fifty steps. Rodrego was to
have his hands tied behind bin, and to lie upon
the fiat of his back at the starting point, while
Good, standing at the same point, was to run
and at half the distance pick ten cent piece
from the crown of hat. These were the con-
ditions OF the race. At the word, Good start
cd and run to the hat but while he was scrab-
bling for the money Rodireeo passed him and
won the race by about four feet. The stakes
were only ten dollars side, but about one
hundred dollars changed hands among the out
siders

MINING IN DEL NoRTE.-The Crescent City
Herald of the 9th inst. says: From the
Bald Hills we hear that up to yesterday all
the companies have been doing well, and ma
king from good to large wages. Now how
ever, their water has given out, or nearly so,
and they are anxiously waiting more rain.
Mill Creek has not turned out equal to its
prospects, and there will not probably be much
mining done there.
Copper mining is still going on to some ex-
tent, the Evoca company being still engaged
in going on with the tunnel of which we have
before spoken. Some excitement was caused
two days since by the report that they had
struck sivcr ore in that tunnel, but we believe
the assay did not show it.
