The REPUBLICAN PROGRAMME - 4 San
Francisco correspondent of the Yreka Journal
"A Republican paper-indulges in the follow
ing speculations concerning the programme put
forth by the sham Union Republican fusion
leaders of California. Trenor W. Park, second
fiddler to John c. Fremont is a prominent
candidate for the I. S. Senate, should the
Republicans of California succeed in securing
the next Legislature The writer says:
While little and vicious morning courtesies
are exchanged among would.be leaders, Trenor
W. Park sits back and chuckes with hellish
glee, fondly hoping that out of the difficulties
of Others something may turn to his advantage.
His plans, however have a false and absurd
basis-the nomination and election of Fremont
TO the Presidency. The foundation is rotten

The way to purge the country Of beasts and
birds Of prey is to vote the Democratic ticket.

BATTLE OF PORT REPUBLIC.

There was sad blunder committed at
Port Republic the other day, by one or two
of our bull-headed commanders. 1t seems
that Col. Carroll was ordered forward to
burn bridge to prevent the retreat of the
rebel jackson, but, instead of doing as or
dered, he attempted to hold it. The result
was that the enemy whipped him and es-
capped, and Fremont had his chase for moth
ing. The loss on both sides was heavy
The Goth Ohio went into the battle with
over six hundred men, and came out with
less than three hundred. The 29th suffered
terribly, as well as other regiments, and the
total loss i'll killed, wounded, and missing
is not far from one wounded was much
heavier than ours. The missing of our
men are coming in all the time, so that our
actual loss will not be so great in the end.
Letters from McDowell's army places the
responsibility of the disaster on Gen.Shields;
and it is said that all the officers who
fought in the battle have signed an address
to secretary Stanton demanding his removal
1t is evidently that some one ought TO be
removed.

THE IMPENDING BATTLE.

There must either be tremendous bat
tie or an extraordinary foot race near Rich
mond, Virginia, before long. jeff. Davis
has declared that under no circumstances
will be abandon the Ole Dominion and il is
also stated that the rebel Capitals is being rein
forced rapidly. On tho other hand, the
forces under Mcclellan are fortifying as
they move steadily but slowly upon the
rebel intrenchments. Rumors of the evacua-
tion of Richmond have been frequent; but
there are some considerations which lead us
to the opinion that the secession leaders
will be compelled to struggle desperately
to retain their hold on Virginia and it is
most probable that they have determined TO
stake their all, so far rs general battle is
concerned, on the result Of the conflict at
Richmond. The cause of the ConfederaCy
has been losing very rapidly during tho
last fow months the confidence of foreign
nations. The long series of roverses and
defeats which have followed their arms
from Fort Henry till now, have taught
their friends abroad that the rebel forces

Terrible Rain and Hail StOrm-Immense e
Destruction of PrOpertY. Etc.

Oh Tuesday afternoon town and country
were visited with most terrible rain and hail storm
which caused an immense destruction of property.
We have never witnessed a harder rain. The wa
ter seemed to come down in one immense sheet.
The hail come thick for a while, but did not last
long. The wind in places was terrific. We hear
of unroofed houses, blown down barns and gem
era leveling of fences in localities, together
with the up"ooting of fruit and forest trees. Our
town for while was looded-Main street particu-
larly SO, the culverts becoming choked up with
rubbish washed down the hill from the cutters No
serious damage was, however, done. The town
was pretty full of teams, and the CONSERVATION
among the thickly hitched horses was at one time
alarming, Fortunately serious damage was
done, How far the storm extended in width we
have not fully ascertained. We have heald of
houses being unroofed in Clyde, so that it must
have extended east beyond that place. West we
have heard of its destruction beyond Hessville.
How much further we have not learned. The dam

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,

The AGRICULTURAL CoLLEGR BILL, intro
duced by Senator Wade of Ohio has pass
ed both Houses of Congress, and we pre-
sumo will soon bea law. This bill proposes
to establish and endow class of public
schools or colleges, by the appropriation of
public lands to the several states, the pro.
ceeds from sales of whick are to be invest
ed as a productive fund. A wise appli-
cation of these means will give an impetus
topractical scientific education. The great
est misfortune is that nearly the whole in
tellectual material has to be created for the
successful occupancy of, the Professors
chairs, else they are likely to be filled with
impudent and at present unemployed Quacks
and pretenders, who will use their position
as hospitals for literary imbecility or for the
propagation ffancy theories having no foun-
ton in true Science. We will hope for the
best.

THE BATTLE NEAR CHARLESTON.

By way of Memphis and Richmond, we
have advices that battle was fought be-
tween the National forces under Gen. Hun
ter, and the rebels on James Island, opposite
Charleston, on the 10th inst. We have no
accounts except those which try to claim a
victory but the tone of their dispatches
and editorial comments indicate a virtual
defeat on the 10th and they seemed to an
ticipate total route on the subsequent
day, acknowledging their troops to have
been worn out, and trembling, apparently,
lest the attack should be renewed on the
18th. Our gunboats had ascended Stone
river from which they commanded the IS
land, co operating with the infantry and
artillery. 1t is possible that the boats may
have cut off the retreat of the rebels from
the Island, while they can also reach the
Charleston 4 Savannah Railroad. With
James Island in the possession of General
Hunter, the city of Charleston must soon
fall and it is possible that the place has
already or reduced to ashes. The enemy
appears to nave had but small force to
defend the island which is the key to the city,
and from this we infer rebel troops are
scarce in that quarter

TERRIBLE CAUSALITY

THERE was fight between the gunboat
Mound city and a rebel battery, on White
river about ninety miles from the Missis-
sippi last week. A ball from rebel gun
broke the steam drum of the Mound City,
causing an explosion and heavy loss of
life among the boats crew. Two regiments,
under Colonel Fitch, charged upon the bat
terry and took it with the entire garrison
without losing man. The Mound City
was not much damaged, and proceeded with
the expedition. A number of rebel boats
are up White river, and one object of the
expedition is to capture them.
