T W. G. ALBAN AND A. A. SARGENT. Saturday Evening, Oct. I. RET SEMEN ee earner Cuban Synfparhy. —— The A/ta of the 8th, considers that . “the interest taken by the people of the . Scott, Daugherty, Smith, Burgess, }on the ¢ Atlantic States in the cause of the in. Roberts, und Harris. The canvass rights. surrectionists in the Island of Cuba, is certainly a most extraordinary manifestation,” and is astonished “that eo much excitement and mock-patriotic sympathy should have grown out of the movements of a small band of desperate men, whose controling motive was plun der.’ The Alta also disclaims the feelin ; cf ‘any great concern for the cause of the HE JOURNAL,. Court of Sessions, . assembled at the court house in this city fon Monday 6th inst., for the purpose lof electing two of their number as Asjsocinte Justices of the Court of Sessions. Present, Justices Anderson, iresulted in the election of Justices . Anderéon and Robert . Judges. . gas Associate The court passed upon the various subjects presented as county business, and adjourned on Saturday morning, . until Thursday next, at 10 o'clock, . A. M,, for the trial of Dibbel and Cubsns,” which seeems to it “an unholy . others, charged with riot, in jumping ond unjust prosecution of the long nur. the claims of the Chinamen, which we tured seheme in which individual fortunes form the chief consideration, and policy the next controling interest.” » Now it may be a great Jack on our part that we cannot, with the staid and dignified Alta, divest ourself of all sympathy for the cause of the Cubans, and look on with nonchalence upon the ef: forts of a people almist at our doors, who are trying to free themselves from a despotism which, every one must admit, is immensely worse, in every particular, than that our honored fore’as thers rosisted. We judge tho Alta has refinzd notions of the duty of an oppressed people--that taxaticn without repre~ sentation—the appointment of foreign and partial governors, judges, and offieers of every description—the most oppressive restrictions of commerce, business, travel, even social life—are all highly natural ; and that if a native of Cuba finds himself ineligible to any office of honor or proffit under the government, his business and property taxed, and re-taxed to exhaustion, himeclf deprived of the liberty of speech . noticed in our last. . A contract was entered into for . the erection of a jail, by Mr. Long, lat a cost of $1,830 in cash. A conItract has also been entered into for the jpurchase of ground, in a good loca. tion, for the erection of a court house and other county buildings, the whole cost of which will be about $2,500. The county at present pays a monthly rent of $2C0O for buildings which would be unfit for a huokster shop or a rag store, The boundaries of the townships were revised, and the subject of roads had the especial attention of the court. The action upon these subjects we suppose, will be published for public information. The construction of a new bridge on Broad street, and one ea the new road at Rough and Ready were ordered. A license was granted to FR. H. Porter & Co, fora toll bridge across Bear river,on theAuburn . . and opinion, continually dogged by road.

The opinion of the Bar in this District is much divided {> We must request communicators to be short and pithy. rare, indeed, that a subject cannot be The Magistrates elect of this county . trict as to the succession of the District jucstion of their respective Domestic Dirricuntivs.—One would suppose from the scarcity of females in our midst, that they would be more highly appreciated here than elsewhere. and that men would be the most gallant and attentive of hustands and lovers But the repeated charges and counter charges made Lefore the Recorder, by those who have assumed the silken ties of matrimony, induce the belief that something in our climate is productive ,of discord, or some other unknown cause heten a tendency to set husbands and wives at loggerheads. . ‘The Recorder's time has chiefly been . { It is very taken upof late in the settlement of . domestic difficulties and the reconcilias jtion of belligerent couples. Within the sufficiently discoursed upon in a co-. present week at least a dozen complaints lumn. tempt a long article, while they will at least a small task to get through with it, and if it is good it is not less . 80 for possessing the soul of wit— brevity. BesThe Stockton Journal draws o . Stockton, and speaks in terms of groat . severity of the judicary of that city, with some exceptions. It gives the fouls lowing summary of crime within the compass of a week ; . ‘Last Friday, three men were shot in the vicinity of Stockton; on Saturday evening, an attempt was made to shoot two men without provocation; and the same night, a Mexican was most inhumanly butchered in a house in the out. skirts of tbe town, and on Sunday morn. ing an attempt was made to shoot a gentleman, for no earthly reason that ke could conceive of. We do not know that we have mentioned all the cases yet; but these we know of, for they are the subject of conversation by every body.” A Revo.ver.—"Glorious Tom Marshall” has recently been elected to the Kentucky Legislature. Formerly a Whig, for several years past he has been acting with the Democrats, but since his election, has returned to his old pojsition. His way of doing the thing is unique. Ata meeting of the Democrats . “He acknowledged that he owed his . election tothem, and he set himselt down as debtor for that. But he had supported Mr. Polk, and otherwise done the party some service; fur that he c aimed acredit, and called upon the Democsats present to say on which side the balance stood. Some of them cried out, ‘Oh, we're indebted to you. ‘Well,’ said Marshall, ‘I forgive you the balance, square the account, close the books, and from henceforth lama Whig forever.’ . simme yey.

Enough of these farces have been enacted of late, in all conscience. “Passengers by the boats from below yesterday morning, were advised that two chivalrous yonths. one or both belonging to the San Francisco Custom House, had chosen to settle their difficuties under the laws of the dueling code. Beniciais the favorite resort for obtaining this sort of satisfaction. about these times, and the full particulars uf the interesting event may be looked for by the next arrival.” The Transeript says : “Sporiovs Gotp Dust.——A lot of this article was offered at Mr. 1.

We find the most condensed account of it in the Courier. “One of the most brutal murders that has ever come under our notice, was . perpetrated on Wednesday night or yeeterday morning, in tho Vicinity of the North Beach. It appears that a couple of laborers started at an early hour yes. terday morning for the Presidio, ‘and j having missed their road, found themselves among the sand hills near the west end of the North Beach. In endeavoring to ascertain their whereabouts they came across the dead body of a man, who from appearances, they suppoe had met with a violent death. nformation was given immediately at the Marshal's office, and Justice Bailey, accompanied by a physician, repaired to the spot to hold an inquest. It . very gloomy picture of the morals of ton, Franklin, Warren, and their corevolutionists as men who struggled for a righteous cause. Now, in our untaught nature, we find a feeling that prompts us to sympathise with the struggles for liberty of any people against any despotism, and while we glory in the brilliant history of our own country. we bid God speed to any other section of the world that wishes! to achieve a similar destiny. Conse” quently, we discovered ourself looking on with incrensing interest as the Cuban affair developed itself, and the triumphant iden that another star was about to be added to the constellation of republics had gotten pleasing hold on our mind, when wo are brought to a stand by the enunciation of the worthy Alta that “we of the Paeific,” should regard all these things through another medium. It may be to, but wo cannot believe itand we shall still “feel an interest” ina cause which we believe tobe hely and just, in the effort of a people, intelligent and capable, to obtain self-government, and rid themselves of a heartless tyranny. There is not a doubt that the whole native population of Cuba desire earnestly the destruction of Spanish rule. They have cause enow, Heaven knows, and if they cannot gain their purpose without the assistance of individual Americans, we hope this will be rendered ; and we shall be no more willing to admit the epithet of pirates to these, than we are to consider it just if aps plied to La Fayette, Pulaski, ciusko.

The report is about, that a bag containing a bushel or two of similar stuff was lately discovered among some steamboat freight on the river by an accidental leakage, but the occurrence was not further noticed. It is known that considera. ble quantities of brass filings have been brought from the States, to be used for mixing with dust, and from the greater facilities which are found elsewhere for counterfeiting gold dust, the probability is that the specimen ported source. left with Mr, Beach is from an im. . had quarrelled with another Mexican jnamed Monticenia, on Wednesday evening, at a Mexican dance house in Dupont jstreet.

At San Franciseo, Oct. 5th, Anna, youngest daughter of James C. DeCamp, Sweetland’s ranch, his attention was attracted by a disagreeable effluvia on the side of the road, and searching for the loause, discovered the body of a man greatly corrupted, with two stabs in his breast, and his throat cut from ear to ear. Mr. Woods gave information at Sweetland’s, and a party went out and buried the body. Some of them recognized the body as that of a Frenchman who till recently lived at tho Frenchman's Corral, about two miles from Bridgeport. He was known to have between three and feur thousand dollars in his possession, which undoubtedly prompted this fiendish murder. We are informed that suspicions of the . strongest nature have settled upon an individual in this neighborhood. We earnestly trust the desperate villain who has thus recklessly launched a fel{ or Ko8. low being into eternity, will not go un-. detected: and if detected, no false in. Auences will prevent a retribution com. menearate with his crime. In the case of Nolen to which allusion was made in our last issue, the first bone in the spinal colamn was found, by Drs. Clark & Patterson who made the examination, to be fractured in two places; and the ligaments attached, were considerably lacerated. Tho case was one of unusual intorest, as the unfortunate man lived several days notwithstanding the extravasation of blood around the splnal cord, and in the region of the injury was very extensive.

We heartily concur in the following, from the Sacramento Union: Tue Evenine Picayune.—The regular receipt of this journal, containing as it does the news up to the departure of the steamers for Sacramento, add. greatly to the value of our San Francisco exchanges. The enlargement of the Picayune and its beautiful new dress are not less noticeable improvements, than tho increased variety, interest, and quantity of its contents. In every de. most of the publications of the California press. Mexicans one named Lopez, the others’ name not known, yesterday, about Cat Alley, on a warrant for a rape committed on the body ofa little mestizo girl tweive or thirteen years old It appears that she was kidnapped on Friday night from the premises of a women inthe city who had raised her, and taken out to the Mission, where she was kept about twenty-four hours, and where the violence was committed; after which she was brought back near to the place . whence she was abducted. The examination will be had before the Recorder this morning.—Post 81h. Tue Rarez Case.--Lopes, the man who is charged with committing a rape on the person of an Indian girl, on Friday evening last at the Mission Dolores, was brought before the Recorder yesterday for examination. There being no witnesses against him, he was romanded back tojail, It appears that ohe only witness in the case is the girl herself, and it is posible that Lopea may escape punishment.—Courter 9th . . partmentit may justly rank the fore. The idea on which the invention is founded appears to have been borrowed from the respirator worn over the mouth by consumptive persons,and in which the caloric of the breath, insteal of being directed, successfully resisted the efforts to stop his bags, and it seems probable that he will be legally sustained. We earnestly hope so, until the present ex orbitant rates are abolished. The ad-. justment of the postage system is, ap. lost in the atmosphere is arrested by metallic meshes and warms the cold air taken into the lungs. The experimen's already made by the inventor have, it is said, proved sufficiently satisfactory to induce him to construct an engine of one hundred horse power, which will shortly be in operation. B@™A correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune writes from Cadiz as follows: “Yesterday, notwithstanding my repugnance to bull-fights, it was inpossible 'to resist the rep ated urging of Mr. C— a gentleman to whom { am_ particularly indebted for many civilities, to accui:! lpany him to one of these spectacles.—Raprrx.—Officer Robinson arrested two .

One of the horse‘men was severely gored, and two of those whose office it is to goad the animals to . . phrenzy, were badly bruised, and one Esa escaped having his neck broken. The exposure and escape gives rise to rapturous applaudings. Even while I Write, my imaginatian paints the poor horses with their entrails protruding, and still furth.r drawn out by trampling upon.'them with their own feet; their eyes bandaged to prevent their recoiling from their ferocious enemy, and continuing to be gored till life was no longer. Such scenes as this causes me to realize in what country . am: and parently, one of the most difficult mate . ters which the U. 8. govornment has to deal.

Some time in July we entered into co-partnership in a saw mill, each agrecing to advance one half of the purchase money, which was immediately done on my part and some three hun~ dred dollars over, which was refunded some days after; leaving the note out of the question. He then resolved to return tohis former place of residence and sold his interest to Geo. W.

T W. G. ALBAN AND A. A. SARGENT. Saturday Evening, Oct. I. RET SEMEN ee earner Cuban Synfparhy. —— The A/ta of the 8th, considers that . “the interest taken by the people of the . Scott, Daugherty, Smith, Burgess, }on the ¢ Atlantic States in the cause of the in. Roberts, und Harris. The canvass rights. surrectionists in the Island of Cuba, is certainly a most extraordinary manifestation,” and is astonished “that eo much excitement and mock-patriotic sympathy should have grown out of the movements of a small band of desperate men, whose controling motive was plun der.’ The Alta also disclaims the feelin ; cf ‘any great concern for the cause of the HE JOURNAL,.

We judge tho Alta has refinzd notions of the duty of an oppressed people--that taxaticn without repre~ sentation—the appointment of foreign and partial governors, judges, and offieers of every description—the most oppressive restrictions of commerce, business, travel, even social life—are all highly natural ; and that if a native of Cuba finds himself ineligible to any office of honor or proffit under the government, his business and property taxed, and re-taxed to exhaustion, himeclf deprived of the liberty of speech . noticed in our last. . A contract was entered into for . the erection of a jail, by Mr. Long, lat a cost of $1,830 in cash. A conItract has also been entered into for the jpurchase of ground, in a good loca. tion, for the erection of a court house and other county buildings, the whole cost of which will be about $2,500. The county at present pays a monthly rent of $2C0O for buildings which would be unfit for a huokster shop or a rag store, The boundaries of the townships were revised, and the subject of roads had the especial attention of the court. The action upon these subjects we suppose, will be published for public information. The construction of a new bridge on Broad street, and one ea the new road at Rough and Ready were ordered. A license was granted to FR. H. Porter & Co, fora toll bridge across Bear river,on theAuburn . . and opinion, continually dogged by road.

It appears that a couple of laborers started at an early hour yes. terday morning for the Presidio, ‘and j having missed their road, found themselves among the sand hills near the west end of the North Beach. In endeavoring to ascertain their whereabouts they came across the dead body of a man, who from appearances, they suppoe had met with a violent death. nformation was given immediately at the Marshal's office, and Justice Bailey, accompanied by a physician, repaired to the spot to hold an inquest.

Now, in our untaught nature, we find a feeling that prompts us to sympathise with the struggles for liberty of any people against any despotism, and while we glory in the brilliant history of our own country. we bid God speed to any other section of the world that wishes! to achieve a similar destiny.

At San Franciseo, Oct. 5th, Anna, youngest daughter of James C. DeCamp, Sweetland’s ranch, his attention was attracted by a disagreeable effluvia on the side of the road, and searching for the loause, discovered the body of a man greatly corrupted, with two stabs in his breast, and his throat cut from ear to ear. Mr. Woods gave information at Sweetland’s, and a party went out and buried the body. Some of them recognized the body as that of a Frenchman who till recently lived at tho Frenchman's Corral, about two miles from Bridgeport. He was known to have between three and feur thousand dollars in his possession, which undoubtedly prompted this fiendish murder. We are informed that suspicions of the . strongest nature have settled upon an individual in this neighborhood. We earnestly trust the desperate villain who has thus recklessly launched a fel{ or Ko8. low being into eternity, will not go un-. detected: and if detected, no false in. Auences will prevent a retribution com. menearate with his crime. In the case of Nolen to which allusion was made in our last issue, the first bone in the spinal colamn was found, by Drs.

The idea on which the invention is founded appears to have been borrowed from the respirator worn over the mouth by consumptive persons,and in which the caloric of the breath, insteal of being directed, successfully resisted the efforts to stop his bags, and it seems probable that he will be legally sustained.
