BY the arrival of the steamer China at San
Francisco yesterday from China and Japan, We
have the details of the burning of the steamer
America at Yokohama on the oath of August.
The vessel was totally destroyed, with a large
amount of light freight, 100000 in treasure,
and worst of all, over sixty lives were lost The
steamer took fire at II o'clock at night, and
continued burning until the afternoon-of the
next day Sunday, when she was towed out Of
the way of the shipping and sunk. a court OF
inquiry after investigating the circumstances at
tending the disaster came to the conclusion that
the fire was the result of design, not of acct
dent, and the opinion is expressed that the in
ducement may have been antipathy toward the
Steamship Company or officers, or the fact that
the Chinese passengers were supplied with
large sums of money.

In reply to an invitation to attend the Gree
ley and Brown mass meeting to be held in WIN
chester on the 18th inst Gen. Early says: III
the State should vote for Grant in November,
the danger of the State Governments going
into the hands of the Radicals next year, would
be very great, by reason of distraction and d.
vision in the Conservative party.
my opinion Is of any weight with my old com,
rades and friends of the lower Valley, my ad,
wise to them is to vote with their party and
their friends, and thus keep the State out OF
the hands of the vile herd that is anxious to
prey on her vitals; and this advise would give
to all my old comrades and friends in the State.
If there are any of them who have sworn in
their wrath that they will never vote for Gree
ley and Brown, let them tear their names from
the ticket and vote for the ticket of native Viz,
ginians, headed by those true and noble sons OF
the State, my very good friends, COL Robert
+. Withers and General James L. kemper.
There can be no dishonor in that, and we can
trust those gentlemen to cast the vote OF the
State as they think her best interests require.

The Virginia Star says that in his remarks
before the Greeley and Brown club of Fred
ericksburg few nights ago, Gen. Daniel Rug
giles related some incidents which came under
his personal observation during his late visit to
his lands in Texas, which we'll illustrate the
management of affairs under the present adj
ministration. He says he found garrisons Of
U. S. troops at Galveston, Austin, Houston
and other peaceful cities, where there is not
the least need for their services, but out along
the banks of the Rio Grande, where the pio-
neer settlers are exposed to the pillage of the
Mexican robbers, scarcely soldier is to be
seen. IF any are there, they are infantry, and
and the robbers land even beggars, says the
GeneraD travel on horseback, the folly of pur-
suit and the utter restitution of all protection
to the settlers becomes at once apparent. So
the robberies 60 on.

TIE GEORGIA ELECTION. The election for
Governor and members of the Legislature of
Georgia, yesterday, resulted in Democratic
victory. Returns from all parts of the State
show large gains over the Governors election
in 1865. The Democratic candidate, it is estl-
mated, is elected by nearly thirty thousand
majority In Augusta, last night, the greatest
enthusiasm was manifested, and the city was
illuminated by bon fires Statutes were fired,
and other demonstrations Of rejoicing made.

Cured at the polls in Macon, growing out OF
an alleged attempt by negroes to take forclble
possession of the polls. Very early in the
morning they massed at the City Hall, and
marched down to the polls, at the court house,
in column, under the command of their cap
tains, lieutenants and sergeants. There they
found a smaller crowd, principally whites, and
commenced crowding upon them and forcing
them away from the polls. A few bouts Of
fsticuffs occurred in the dense mass, and then
discharge of brickbats came from the negroes
followed BY an order from their leader to fire
upon the whites. In the course of a few Sc,
conds about fifty pistol shots were discharged
from both sides, by which Que white man
was killed and some FIVE or six ne,
groes wounded, two of whom afterwards died
After the afray, which lasted but few, mo-
ments, the bulk of the negroes left in haste
and disorder, saying they would give. up the
election, as they had been driven from the
polls by violence and could get no chance to
vote They massed again at the city hail.

ALondon commercial journal says that the
predictions which it ventured to make at the
commencement of the year about the bad com

year, SO far as business is concerned, that has
been realized in quarter of a century. Mr..

before him, but what, without argument and
discussion, it will be, he violates every prece-
dent of propriety, and exposes himself to just

SpECULATloSS. The Washin gton correspon-
dent of the Baltimore Sun tclcgraphs to that
paper:
4 fair estimate made by Democratic canvass
ers of the States in which elections are to be
held on Tuesday next. and which are to vIrtu
ally decide the Presidential contest, is to this
effect: Ia Indiana. Notwithstanding the impor.
tation OF colorcd voters from Kentucky and
the discovery Of plots for repcatcrs to pass
from one town to another in the interest of the
Republican party, it is believed that Mr.
Hendricks, Democratic candidate for Governor
aud the ticket for Congressman at large viii
range from 5000 to 10000 majority.
In Pennsylvania llr. Buckalew, for Govern
or, is given from l2.OOO to $1,000 majority
The contest on Congressman at large, it is be,
lievcd, will be very close in that State and
some Republicans while couccding Demo.
cratic Governor, claim they will secure the
Republican congressman who are apport!orci
to the whole State. 1t may be added here
that the Republican leaders who are confident
Of llartranft's election state that he will secure
ten thousand majority in Philadelphia and five
thousand in the rest Of the State, which wIi!
elect him by fifteen thousand.
In Ohio the Democrats are very certain To
elect more than majority Of congressman.

as it is in Pennsylvania or Indiana. The H..
puhIicans say that they were badly scared
two weeks ago about Ohio, but that the State
is no longer in doubt. Indiana is regarded AZ
in more danger By the Republicans than either
Pennsylvania or Ohio. They say that the ol.
position is stronger and has less than a major
ity of thousand to overcome. Such is can
did statement of the political situation to be
solved on Tuesday next derived from the best
posted men of both parties.
