SOLEMN TRUTHs-The San Jose Patriot, re-
joicing over the recent formal opening of the
western end of the Pacific Railroad-between
San Francisco and that city-says.
| I" The thus far unsuccessful attempts to raise
| the AgnHd from her watery bed, shows most
forcibly the necessity for the sp, dy completion
of the Pacific~lailway While expensive and
vain attempts have been made, doz , Monitors
with all their appurtenances and armament could
have been landed in San Francisco from New
York, and some of them afoat and in a condi-
ton to defend the harbors on the Goa st. from any
| naval force which could attack them. One
weeks time would be all sufficient to transport
one hundred thousand men with all the NUM-
lions of war and all the artillery necessary for
| their use, from the Eastern States by railway.
We have rumors of French feet about to be
stationed in the waters of the Pacific, along the
Mexican coast. We also havc.the promise from
rebel organs that the alabama is on her way to
this coast For the want of communication by
railroad, well all the horrors of civil war,
we may justly and truly charge the politician
| and the slave olgarchy of the South. No bill
| for Pacific Railway which should terminate at
any point north of Memphis God any chance at
! all of ever being built the demon of slavery
| like another Cerberus guarded and kept back
every attempt OF railway which did not run
| through, and was not under the entire control of
the slave States and Shareholders. Let Califor-
MIA be thankful that the day of their power has
passed away and forever when the time comes,
AS como it will, and soon, the evils and troubles
of the past will be forgotten, in the certainty
that the power which withheld from her what
was just her right, has passed away forever.
The bonds of iron which will link her to her
sister States will be indissolubes n. like The
day whose morning sun has be obscurcd by
clouds, prosperity like the sun shall cast its
genial rays over the length and bread'N Of the
land. y

Local PAPERs.-The Boston Journal remarks
:! Not tenth part of the local news which trans
pires in any country town finds its way into a
city paper, and he who takes the latter to the
exclusion of his town or county paper, does not
fulfill his duties as citizen.n
IT does not follow that two persons fit to
marry because both good. Milk is good,
and mustard is good but they are not good for
each other.

/ THE FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE IN SANTIAGO CHILE
The Panama Star and Herald, of January I'd.
says g The steamer America, Capt. Morton, of
NJ 0. Roberts New York and San Fran line
which sailed from New York on the 3Oth of De-
| tober arrived here on the forenoon of the LIST
inst. The America is nine days and FIVE hours
! from Valparaiso and brings from that place the
sad news that the 18th of December the Ca
thedral in Santiago, the capital of Chile had
caught fire by the explosion of gas pipe during
the celebration of an Episcopal High Mass
whilst the building was densely crowded with
human beings. Wien the alarm of fire was
| given the crowd rushed to the DOORS which open-
ing inside, were soon closed by the press, and
all egress prevented. The interior of the build
ing was decorated with light, infamabl orna-
ments which caused the flames to spread rapid

burying the mass of beings beneath it. Some
i $50 dead bodies, mostly ladies and children
had been recovered from the ruins.
As we have no direct advices from Valr raiso.
We cannot youch for the accuracy of the above
The news was brought by Captain Morton. of the
America who learned the particulars from a let
ter from Santiago eceived by one of his passen-
gers.
The South American mail steamer, which
| reached Panama, January 5th. with S9ls. 900 in
treasure for England, brings confirmation of the
above, stating the number killed at over . 900
| The Cathedral contained 900 lights, from some
| of which the fire c, nmunicated to the drapery
| of the gigantic columns and paste-board devices.
In an instant a sheet of flames rushed along the
festoons to the roof, and directly spread to all
parts of the building. The people rushed to the
| door, which was soon blocked up. Most of the
men escaped by the sacristy and inside the doors.
But few of the ministers escaped. The lights
suspended so plentifully from the roof poured a
rain of liquid fire the people below, nd l.
