FIT, KEARNEY, May 1.-THE Pony Ex-
press from San Francisco May Ist, passed
here to-day. The news of the fight at
Baltimore and the secession of Virginia
had been received. The Union feeling was
manifesting itself everywhere. The Col
lector of San Francisco sympathizes with
the South. The secession flag over the
U. S. Marshal's Office had been hauled
down. 1t is thought the Breckenridge men,
some $4,000 or 10000, will favor the indie
pendence of the Southern ConfederacY.
