facts were becoming too hot for them. 1t

not to blame for the calamities before Rich

the responsibility, beyond the power Of

the army in question.

report that he endeavored to obtain his release
by stating that the Herald had said as much
for the South as for the Union" is false in
every particular He adds that he acted as aid
for COL Kenly, and his active services at the
time Of his capture precluded the possibility of
any such subterfuge being available.
At latest accounts Jackson was at Harrison

A CINCINNATI

since a young man named Thomas Bushnell,
we'll known in this city as the interchangeable
agent ofO Neil &C.,, extensive coal dealers at
Pittsburg, Penn, conceived the unfortunate
idea that he was enamored of a dashing widow.
She, in return, doated nyoung Bushnell who
clothed his c7leye annie in the costiest silks and
jewelry, and placed at her disposal money in
abundance. BUSHNELL who for a series of years
was the faithful agent of O. Neil & Co., hand
ling 500, 900 at time, and always accounting
for every dollar, now found that the demands
of the gay widow on his exchequer had reduced
his purse to very low fraction. He therefore
chose, of the alternative to rob his employers
and pursue fast life, or continue a quiet,
and pocketing the sum of upward Of $4,000 in
cash, he took the destroyer of his good name
and left for California via New York
At Albany, Bushnell united himself with
the widow in wedlock, and there learned that
detectives were in pursuit of him. The newly
welded pair, with their Ill gotten gain, return
ed to Canandaigua, where they separated-the
wife going to Cleveland, where she had relatives
and the unfortunate husband to such parts
where he would elude the vigil5nce Of his pur
surers O'Nel Il Co., receiving information
that Bushnell had sailed for California had
dispatched Officer Gracey in pursuit, who ar
rived New 7 ork on Friday, and was to have
sailed yesterday for San Francisco. This is in
deed an unfortunate destruction Of good rep
utation which Bushn llhad established and en-
joyed. Young BushnelPs peace of mind is
forever gone, and he never can console himself
that the woman for whom he made SO great a
sacra6ce was in any way worthy thereof but
that in his departure from the paths OF rectl-
tude and virtue he has entailed upon himself a
misral4e and uncoyeted existence. Cincinnati

Major W. NJ. Stone, of the Sd Iowa Cav

A dispatch from Denver City, Of April
9Th, give the following intelligence from
New Mexico:
On the 26th ult the Colorado regiment un-
der Col. Slough numbering about 300 men
reached Apache Pass. Maj. Chivingston took
three companies Of cavalry and proceeded in
advance OF the main body to intercep: and cap
ture some of the enemy. Word having reach
ed the command that $50 rebel cavalry were 10
miles from the Pass, Major Chivingston found
the enemy as described and whipped them out
in short time, taking 81 prisoners. Major
Chivington's loss, 4 killed and ii wounded.
After accomplishing this, Maj. Chivingston re-
turned to the command which was on It's way
down the western slope of Santa Fe. The
command under Col. Slough kept on its way;
encountefing no enemy until arriving at Pigeon
Ranch fifteen miles from Santa Fe, where it
met at the mouth of the canon, 100 Texans.
This wns on Friday, March 2Sth. The engage
ment commenced about noon. Col. Slough's
seven companies engaged the enemy's front
while Mai. Chivington's four companies of cav
airy, deployed ard attacked the rebels rear,
driving the guard from the supply train, and
capturing and burning it. The train consisted
Of fifteen wagons. Maj. Chivingston also cap
tured and spiked one of the enemy's cannon;
then retired and joined the main force. In the
meantime, our force under Col. Slough, con-
tended desperately against superior numbers,
and disadvantage of ground, the enemy being
walled in at the mouth of deep canon. At
A o'clock the fighting ceased by mutual consent.
Col. Slough withdrew to the Creek, four miles
in the rear. The loss on our side was 20 killed
and from 40 to so wounded. The rebel loss is
not known. The officers killed are Captain
Cook, Company f, Lieut.. Barker, Company l.,
Lieut. Chambers, Company c. The names of
the killed among the privates are not given.
ia Fe. The communication between him and
Col. Slough was continually kept up, and the
prospects were that Sibley was in tight fix.
1t is hoped that Slough viii fall back on Fort
Union, and wait for Candy, when an advance
will be made with success.

THE MoNIToR-WHY 80 NAMED The fol-
lowing letter from Capt. Ericsson to Mr..
Fox, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, ex-
plains the reasons for naming his iron clad
battery the "Monilor." The letter is dated
January goth:
SIR-In accordance with your request, I now
submit for your appreciation name for the
floating battery at Green Point. The impreg-
nable and aggressive character Of this structure
will admonish the leaders Of the Southern rebel
lion that the batteries on the banks of their riy
ers will no longer present barriers to the en-
trance of the Union forces. The irOn-clad in
truder will thus prove secure monitor to those
leaders. But there are other leaders who will
also be started and admonished by the booming
of the guns from the impregnable iron turret
Downing street will hardly view with indiffer-
ence this last Yankee notion-this monitor. To
the Lords of the Admiralty the new craft win be
monitor, suggesting doubts as to thepropriety
of completing those four steel-clad ships at 49,
500, 900 apiece. On these and many similar
grounds propose to name the new battery the
Monitor. l am, sir, respectfully, your obedient
servant. J. Ericsson.

REFUSAL TO DELIVER MAHs.-When the
steamer st. Louis arrived at San Francisco,
on Saturday, the Purser refused TO deliver
tho mails. without an order ffom the agents.
The messenger then went to the steamship
eotnpany's office, and was told by the clerk
that an order for the delivery of the mails
could not be delivered until the agents
were found, and thai the understanding
was, they should remain on the steamer un'
til Monday morning. Postmaster Parker
then laid the case before Gen. Wright, who
detailed a squad of twenty soldiers, under
Lieut.. Ropes, to accompany the POstmas-
ter to the steamer, and take the mails by
force If necessary. On the Postmaster
making another demand for the mails, the
commanding officer at first refused to de-
liver them, but changed bis mind as soon as
he discovered the Provost Guard drawn up
in line, and the mail bags were brought
ont and delivered TO the Postmaster in
doub.e-quick time. The law of Congress
in regard to the prompt delivery OF the
mails ia very plain and stringent. 1t re-
uuires every master of a vessel, under Sc
we're penalty, on arriving at port to de-
liver the mails at the Postofice. Messrs.
Forbes and Babcock, the agents OF the
steamship company, heve published the
following explanation:
The st. Louis arrived here at half past II
o'clock, on Sunday, 9th April. She had on
board several bags or matter, from the isthmus
and Mexican ports. The Purser Of the ship
had received orders, from the Agent Of the Co.,
at Panama, to deliver the mails to the post
master, on receipt of an order from the Agents
at San Francisco. Within ten minutes after
the agents heard that the mails were not dellv-
cred, an order for them was at the office of the
Postmaster-which was before o'clock. He
had, however, without seeing or hearing from
the agents personally, pursued course to OBJ
tain the mails the particulars of which the pub
lie already know.

GoLDEN.-The richest specimen of gold
mixed with quartz which we have ever seen
from the mines of this Territory, was shown us
yesterday, by Mr.. Brown, of this city, who has
recently returned from Humboldt, where he
procured the aforesaid specimen, out of tons of
similar quartz, from the National lode. Mr..
Brown AYERS that several other lodes in the
same region are almost If not equally rich, and
that capitalists must certainly be ignorant of
the merits Of the quartz, not to invest out there.
Although there is an abundance Of rich rock in
the Humboldt region, it cannot be worked ex-
cept by machinery, as it is harder than any
other rock to be found in the mountains ada

THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL. 10, 1862.
ISLAND No. lO.-Vhis island, according to

ISLAND No. lO.-Vhis island, according to
the dispatches received over the continent
Yesterday, has at length been captured. It
is an important victory, and what is better,
a bloodless one. Six thousand rebel priso-
ners, among whom are three Generals to-
gether with an immense quantity Of cannon,
munitions, and other warlike materials,
have fallen into the hands of toe Federals.
The particulars, so far as received, will be
found in another column. The rebels must
have been so hemmed in that their supplies
were cut of, when they abandoned their
Notifications and attempted to escape, but
a good portion of them were captured by
the troops under General Pope. This is the
most important victory yet gained, with the
exception Of that at Fort DoEelsOB, and we
may now expect that Tennessee will soon
be cleared of rebels, as they win not be
likely to make another stand above Mem
phis The Federal gunboats will probably
soon make a trip to New Orleans.

SCARCTTY OF Provisions ON FRASER RIv-
ER.-By late arrival from the North, we
learn that provisions are very scarce and
selling at starvation rates in British Co
Iumbia. At Forts Hope and Yale, on Fra
ser river, -four is worth S75 barrel, and
other things in proportion. The rivers are
all closed, and no supplies can be carried
over the the mountains, covered as the are,
with ice aud snow. A letter in the British
Colonist, from j. f. Glinson. dated at Har-
rison river. March 22d, says:
Things look rough up this way; two steam
ers ice-bound for two days; they may get out
tomorrow, but think not. There is very lit
tie provision in Hope or Yale. Cinnamon pay
8 cents pound for packing from my place to
Hope, as the rice at that place and Yale is all
out. / have sent -four, meat and other things
up to my friends in those places. Il is of no
use for any one to come up before the middle
Of April. 1t would be to my benefit to have
them come now, but don't want to "rope''
men up to eat dogs and cats above this place.
Some may not believe that at Yale Cinnamon
have paid SS5 apiece for dogs, but such is fact.
Steamboatmen think they can get through,
but they are wrong. You can tell my friends
to stay in Victoria until the second week in
April.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTs.-We are
indebted to Assemblyman Avery, Of this

that there were many mistakes 10 the en-
rolled copy, as ascertaiued by comparing 1t
with the Journals. These mistakes we're
corrected aud the amendments, as origin.
ally adopted by the Legislature of 1861,
have been agreed to by both Houses Of the

CoNFIsCATIoN BuL.-A San Francisco
dispatch says that Maclsy's bill, Ito dis
franchise traitors and conIiscate their prop
erty," has passed the Assembly by vote Of
SO ayes to ~ noes. We have not seen this
bill, but according to Legislative cores
respondent, it prohibits rebel sympathisers
from maintaining their rights in the Courts
of the State; in other words, 1t is an attempt
to legalize rascaIity. II is hardly probable
the bill will pass the Senate, and even if II
should, the courts would decide 1t uncon-
etitutlonal The Constitution of the State
prescribes the qualifications of voters, and
a person entitled to vote under the COnsti-
tuition cannot be disfrauchised by an act of
the Legislature.

INDIAN PIRATEs.-The Indians of the
Straits, at Puget Sound, are becoming danger
Gus as pirates. They have committed many
depredations, during the past two years, on YES
sells and persons residing on the shores. The
schooner Ino was recently engaged in trading
with the Kilpoks Indians, when some of the
Tongas tribe came along, and wanted to trade
furs, that the master of the InO refused to trade
with them. Upon that, they boarded the Ino
and robbed her of some 20 pairs of blankets
and other stuff, of the value of $500. They
would probably have seized the schooner had
not the master put to sea.
