We take tue following aecou Mt Of the az
rest Of C. L. Weller, from Tuesdays S. F.
Fkly;
Every loyal man in the State will rejoice
TO learn that treason has received stern
and decisive rebuke BY the arrest Of G. L.
Weller, of this city, and William Hall, Of
MERGED county, two of the most open advo-
Gates on this coast Of the cause Of Davis and
his Coufederacy. These men seem, for some
time past, to have been engaged in the ex-
pertinent Of deliberately testing how far they
would be permitted TO 90 in aSsailing the
Government of the United States, and adyo-
eating the cause ofthe rebellion. On Thurs
day evening last, Weller, who occupies the
position OF Chaira an Of the Democratic
State Central Committee, and is said TO be
edisorially connected with Browns Democra-
tic Press, made a public speech at Sequel
Hall, on Howard street, in which he directly
advised his Irish hearers to arm themselves
in order 70 resist the draft, when attempted
in this city. He also advised the forty
thousand armed Democrats IN this State, TO
resist the military tyranny which existed
here. In short, the whole harangue was an
undisguised incitemsntt 70 instruction, blood
shed and civil war. The case was, in all its
features, far more aggravated one than that
Of Chapman, arrested some months since
The language employed was more defiant,
and calculated TO be more mischieyous in its
effects. OF course, the military authorities
could not permit It TO pass unnoticed: to
have done so would have been confession
Of timidity or impotence, a promise Of i'm
munity TO the eonspirators who are seeking
to inaugurate civil war among US; and ter
rible encouragement TO the zeal of loyal men.
Weller was arrested about six o'clock last
evening, at his residence on Stockton street,
BY Major Wright and Major Van Yoost, ae-
companied BY a guard Of ten men in citizens
dress, and two in uniform. The prisoner
was conducted to Black Point, where boat
was in waiting which conveyed him to Alca-
traz. No military arrest that has yet been
made in this department has been warranted
by ampler cause; indeed, it would seem as
though Weller had deliberately sought TO hurl
a defiance in the teeth Of the authorities, in
order to provoke an arrest, and thus open
the way for riot and bloodshed. II such was
his object, be has sigually failed in accom-
plishing it, having apparently misealculated
the effect OF his seditious eloquence upon the
rabble whose bad passions it was designed to
influence. We sincerely trust that the policy
toward traitors which has thus been inaugu-
rated will be firmly pursued, until the parti-
sans Of Davis shall learn that il is no longer
safe TO haunt their reasonable threats in the
public places Of San Francisco.

TIE NEWS

After protracted silence the wires are
again in working order, but we have no
later dates than July Esd. The inteli-
gence is interesting and important, SO far
as it relates to the movements Of our
armies in the more Southern States, but
does not satisfy the public craving, which
is for tidings from the main army under
Grant. The public naturally regard the
Confederate capital as the vitals of the re-
belIon. and the conclusion is generally
adopted that with the fall of Richmond
the failing hopes of the Confederacy viii
perish. Intelligence from other portions
of the great battlefield, however favorable
and cheering it may be, is regarded with
comparative apathy. Ifthe line is in per-
feet working order, as we have reason to
believe it is. there has vast amount Of
news matter accumulated at the East,
which must be sent along in Its due rou-
tine, and it will be day or two before we
shall be fully posted up to the latest
dates. BY that time it is 10 be hoped that
wa shall receive late and cheering intelli-
genee from the headquarters of the Army
of the Potomac.

would give il tip. Hsw Massena subsidized
his small army In GenDa, for months aiter
every resource seemed 20 have been eaten
M. and how afterward, IN 1910, he fed an
army Of 5000 French In Portugal, while
held in virtual siege by the Duke OF Yelling
ton. TO the utter astonishment OF the English,
who could not divine upon what the French
troops subsisted IN { country long before
Thought to be exhausted, are historical facts.
But TIM Massena had 70 surrender in Genoa
al last. and to retreat from Portugal. In
both cases nothing was left TO feed upon
even BY French soldiers, who can make
fair dinner out Of food which would sstarye
any other troops IN Europe. We suppose
General Lees army has learned somewhat OF
the French economy In the matter Of food,
and therefore they will be able TO extend the
siege of Richmond to the utmost limit Of
human endurance. But it is to be borne IN
mind that their camp is in II midst Of
country never very productive OF supplies for
an army, and whose natural disadvantages
in this respect have been heightened BY the
devastations Of large contending armies for
over two years. 70 the northeast and south
east there is nothing. The leading road over
which limited supplies might come to them
from the northwest is broken up. To the
south and southwest there is but one road
open, and that only as far as Lynchburg-
All the other roads are exposed either TO our
artillery or cavalry, and therefore unreliable.
The supply question is wholly to be answered
BY one or two roads, and aside from what

A GuERRILLA CHTEFrAIN.-One Of the
most successful and daring leaders Of the
guerrilla bands which now infest Kentucky
and Tennessee IS man BY the name Of
Hughes, formerly citizen Of owensboro.-
He Joined Morgan, when the guerrilla chief
was in the zenith Of his fame, and accom-
panied him in several of his early Kentucky
raids. He deserted Morgan more than a
year ago, and tor many months has been ac-
lively engaged in recruiting guerrilla band.
He is meeting with considerable success
AL the IDLE yagabonds OF the country rally
70 his call, and his force is large enough at
this time to do much petty mischief. He is
the chief Of the numerous gangs scattered
through the Green River country, and opera
ting on the border OF the Ohio river. He has
bur little restraint Of his men, and therefore
exercises no authority to prevent their in
discriminate piIlage OF the river and the in
land towns. He fights for no principle-he
simply wages war for plumber. His sue
cess has been astonishing, and his name Is
becoming terror TO the people.

Hunt, formerly Of the Buffalo Express, writes
to that paper from Memphis A correspond

between General Washburne I'm command

the late unlucky Sturgis Expedition took q
solemn oath before starting that they would
neither give nor take quarter il they met
Forrest. They kept the oath, took no pris-
oners, lost none, came back IN excellent or

with such tenacity and unheard Of fatality,

burne, in reply. Is said to hare informed For
rest that he believed such On oath to have
been taken, without hrs knowledge or order,
and that he had no doubt that 1t had been
keut. as Gen. Forrest alleged. That such
consequences were inevitable upon the Fort
Pillow crime, and that had he the power to
control the colored troops IN that matter, he
could not honorahly exert it--could not ask
these good soldiers Of the Union to practices
ali, while they received none, Of the arneni-
ties Of civilized warfare. So stands the me-
cotiation, except that Forrest has already

as the mass of unsettled litigation
which presses upon and holds down the
almost entire valuable property in the
country. Long continued uncertainty IN

all the valuable property in the Territory,
to say nothing Of the vast amount Oh
which the value is uncertain is hanging IN
the wavering scale of uncertain and tardy

this year there were about four hundred
cases upon the calendar Of the District
Court in this county. In these cases
were involved, one might almost say, the
title to the majority Of the property in the
Territory. Six months, and more, have
elapsed, in which time but three civil
cases have been submitted to jury and
but in one of those has a decision been
rendered. Let people ponder upon the
distressing results inevitable upon this

CHAseE.-The world is fun Of change.
Every day varies from the day which pro-
ceeds it. In this world, all things are muta-
Bile. Change change is written on the face
Of all things human. The Democracy which
now seeks 10 rear its head rs an exponent OF
the ideas Of treason issno fair indication Of
the views Of the early fathers of the republic.
Washington and Jefferson, and Madison
Webster, and Clay, and Cass, all recognized
that the policy Of Governments must be con-
trolled BY the ever varying cycle of events in
our world Of progress and improvement.
They would have been patriots now, just as
much as they were patriots, and lovers Of the
republic in its earlier and PALMER days. Adj
herence to old political precedents is rather
the mark of weak than wise mind. The
judicious statesman is never bound to the
precedents Of an age before him, in regard to
the circumstances and wants Of the present
time. Names may not change, but ideas and
principles ever vary. The Democracy which
now goes back to the atitiquated notions Of
the past, and BY quoting presidents, seeks to
uphold the institution 81 slavery. Democracy
Is now treason-sympathy with rebellion
devotion TO the worn-out theories Of the past,
and disregard to the wants Of the future. It
is much the same with old Whiggery and the
modern Republican party. They were con-
sentative beyond measuFe--forgetf that ma
tons are ever marching on, making new de
velopments and requiring new rules Of con-
troll and government. Times change the
world changes, and the wise statesman viii
always vary his policy so as to suit the cir
cumstances by which he Is surrounded. To
Judge the acts Of the present Administration
by the rules which governed the Administra-
tons Of jefferson or Jackson, would be, the
highest point Of folly We have to take
things as they are, md act accordingly. The
first requirement upon our statesmen Is to
suppress rebellion, and then in the spirit Of
careful wisdom, proceed to re-establish the
Union.- Carson hldepsnde,a.
