SACRAMENTO CORRESPONDING
SACRAMENTO. May Nth, 1868

Editors Herald: About the only interesting
question for discussion, among Democratic jour
mails, is, is it possible to unite the Democratic
vote of California in the coming important cleo
ton. The central organ the California Repub-
ican, is iaboring very earnestly for union in
some way. and recommends that the Democracy
proceed to call third Convention, and discard
the other two. If it had been suggested and
acted upon before the calls by the Committees, it
possibly might have been acquiesed in by common
consent. Then on the meeting Of said Conven-
ton platform could have been agreed upon
doubtless. We have one too many Conventions
called now, and the addition of another would
not reduce the number.
HAVE you HEARD THE NEWS?
The city of Richmond was taken last Saturday
in Sacromento in the most gallant style. Gen
Keys led on by Gen. Stoneman 5 $1,000 cavalry,
captured the city, without firing gum In fact. we
are not informed that the Rebels had possession
at all after Stoneman and Keys advanced. This
is the greatest victory of the war. because no
body was hurt No wonder then that we bellig-
Grant fellows run mad no wonder that the city
was surrendered to somnambulAnts and crazy
heads no wonder that old cocks' came out and
punched each others ribs some. and retired late
az mellow fellows will-nO cannon were fired at
Richmond, hence the proprcty of firing here.
1t is not often that your correspondent swallows
such large verbal reports as took down on this
occasion. wished the news true--but if | had
road the Unions extra upon which all the
commotion was kicked, up aud then had COM
menced this letter to you, should have headed
the news doubtful -very.' 1t WAS an innocent
affair everybody felt too happy. either with
wine or news, to III tniteSt any mtlcousuess. A
few overzealous men, went to the Republican
Office to demand that the stars and stripes be
raised. But this Office is strong fire proof brick
building and before the said gentlemen arrived
at said place, the place had been closed aud made
as strong as your county jail.

Icebergs in the Southern Ocean.

Capt. Kirby of the ship Uncowah, from
New York to San Francisco, reports an en-
counter with mass of ice off Cape Horn,
Aug 9th, immense almost beyond precedent.

could not believe that it was ice, and thinking
that he might have drifted norhward during
the several days which he had not been able
to get an observation. set it down as an is.
land covered with snow. The wind was from
the eastward, and the ship was going at the
rate Of eight knots; she soon brought the
whole body above the horizon, and not long
after the ice was found to stretch along the
whole head and on the weather bow. The
course of the ship was then altered so as to
bring the ice on the lee bow, and gradually
as the bearings altered, five icebergs, of vari
Gus sizes, were made ont. The ship passed
within few miles to the windward of them.
1.-The ice field and icebergs were estimated
to be from eight to ten miles long and very
high-a solid mass of ice against which the
sea broke, as upon the iron bound shores of
continent. At four miles distance, the
water about the ship wss agitated with eddies
and ripples caused by the opposing presence
Of so large body to the usual ocean cur
rents. The sides along which the ship passed
appeared to be PERCEPTIONS up for more than
hundred feet from the water, when they
broke up towards the peaks in the interior
Of the island; and down the seppes, the spy
glass showed the existence Of great guIles
aud water courses. When the sun shone
full upon the island, it reflected the light

TIE DETROIT MoB.-The Free Press res.
ponds to GreeIy's ISLANDERS of the Democrats
IN connection with the late negro riot, that
"the true origin of the mob was the hachinqs
and practices of the Republican party. The
doctrine of negro citizenship, the addition Of
negro soldiers to the army as the equals of
those who have gone to the war, the eman-
clpa'lon proclamation, the hostility Of the
Republican party to the Constitution. and
their contempt for the laws-tbey were the
true causes OF the riot. Every negro who
was abused may'truy say the Republicans
did it," The Free Press adds: "Faukner
,oaS, in fact, negro. His boast was that
he was from Virginia, and connected with
the Faulkner family of that State. The
mob were not Democrats. Many of the
Germans who took pat in it never voted the
Democratic ticket in their lives"

ARTIFICIAL DIAMoNDs.-A Mr.. Camel of
France has succeed ed in obtaining crystals
having all the properties of the diamond
through the mutual reaction of phosphorus
water, and bi-sulphide of carbon upon each
other, for the space of fifteen weeks.
The crystals were found TO be so hard that
no file would act npon them; in briancy and
transparency they were in no way inferior
to the hest jewels, and some few possessed
lnstre surprising that of ,iost real stones.
The substance so produced was crystalized in
dodecahedron, the crystalline form character
istic Of the diamond.

IMITATION OF DIAMoMDs.-Makea a strong
dough with sitled barley flour and petroleum
or rock oil. Divide this paste in two equal
parts. In one of them range your stones
SO that they should not touch one another
With the other part Of your paste co YER this.
Wrap up the whole with a good lutte, and
give it wheel fire for four or five hours,
gradually increasing the strength of the fire
between every two hours. Then you will
have lump of stones that will sparkle like
true diamonds.

Railroad from Marysville to Portland
Oregon.

The following is from the S. T. Bulletin, whose
correspondent writes from Portland, under date
of the 4h inst. Elliott was for sometime County
Surveyor of Placer county.
One Mr.. Elliott of Marysville, CAL, is in town.
He has come through Oregon from the south,
with view of inducing the people to assist in
raising u sum Of SIS 900 to survey a route for a
railroad betweed Portland and Marysvie. | OBJ
serve that he succeeded in jumping up public
meeting at Salem and that committee was ap-
pointed to solicit subscriptions. A meeting WAS
called here for the 29th for the purpose, but
fell through. However, it is proposed to revive
it some evening this week. Waving the question
of who is Mr. Elliott - is Sl5 900 enough or too
much o make a survey? and who is to be respon-
sible for the work being done if the money is
raised? There is Il quiet but determined reuc
tance upon the part OF property holders here to
encourage the movement. They argue that a rail
way from here to the Sacramento valley would
divert the whole trade OF Western and much of
the trade of Eastern Oregon into the hands of
San Francisco directly, and leave Portland out
in the cold at the nor hern extremity Of the line.
The project Of building a line Of steamers, suita
bic to the trade. to run between here and San
Francisco, and another to Victoria, meets with
more favor from the solid men Of Portland; and
considered from the stand point Of their own in
terest, they doubt less in the ght Of it. The
exports and imports Of Oregon now pass through
Portland; but let the business be done by rail
road instead of by sea, and Portland now the
centre OF the trade, will be thrown cut upon the
farther edge, and remain frontier village.
suppose there is not much danger of the railway.
for the present decade at least, but in the pro-
gress OF events it will come, and we must sub
nit to it: and although it might bleed the life out
Of Portland, the country generally would probl-
bly, be the gamer, by the increased facilities for
putting its products into the San Francisco mar
ket.
