MoCLeLLan.—Perhaps no untried man ever attained greater celebrity than Gen. McClellan, or enjoyed more generally the confidence of the American people. Fis campaign in Western Virginia proved bin capable of managing to advantage an army of fifteen or twenty thousand men, add when, after the Bull Run disaster, he was called to the chief command, the indiscriminate Iaudations of newspaper corres pondents led the people generally to regard bim asa second Napoleon, But his fret operation on a large ecale having been a failure, bas severely shaken the public confidence iv bis ability asa commander, and many, who,a few weeks ago, were joudest in bis praise, are now denouncing him as unfit to be entrusted with the lives ef the brave men under his command For our part, we never could discover in Mc Clelian a single Napoleonic trait, but have regarded him as a safe and prudent commander, and still have confidence that he will prove himself such. We place no reliance ia the reports that he is to be superceded in the command, So fer a8 we can judge, from the accounts received, be atill ivas the confidence of the army, and we know of no officer in the service who would be more likely to successfully lead the troops upou the new line of advance on Richmood Inptaw. Disturnaxees IN MINNESOTA.—Dispatches from St, Paul, Minnesota, give some additional particulars of the Indian outbreak in that State. It is estimated that not less than five hundred persons, includiog many women and children, have been murdered, Fort Ridgely, which is beld by aemall force, at last accounts, was surrounded: by 1,000 Indians aod Col. Sibley, with twelve hundred monnted men, had etarted for ite relief. A message from the commanding officer at Fort Ridgely, dated Anguet 22st, says; ‘We can bold this position but little longer, unless reinforced. We fear being attacked almost bourly. Our little band’ is becoming exhausted and decimated.’’? It was stated that Col. Sibley would reach the fort on the 24th, It is rumored that the ootbreak of the savages wae instigated by secession traders, Destructive Fire at Jackson.— The tewn of Jackson, the county seat of Amador, was nearly destroyed by fire, on Saturday last. The fire occurred about three »'clock in the afternoon, and all the buildings on Main and Court streets, all the hotela, the Court House and many of the dwellings, also the post office. express and telegraph offices, and both printing offices, were burned, Some eight or ten fire proof volldings are all that is saved-of the busiuesa portion of the town, We bave no estimate of the lose, Arriva or Emiarants.—The Carson Age reports the arrival, on Friday laet, at that place, of eight wagons belonging to the Chilicothe (Mo.) train, and bringing three or four femilies, The remainder of the train was expected ina day or two. There bas been considerable sickness in the train, mostly mountain fever, anda few denths, but otherwise the train got along floely. They report o heavy emigra. tion behind, mostly persons who are leave ing Missouri and Arkansas, to escape the ravages of the war. Tax Disrurap Territory.—The Carson Vity Age understands that Gov. Nye will yisit Aurora, Exmeralda county, at an early day, to organize a county government, He is firm in his conviction to assume jurise diction over that divtricé. St ‘ Rumors or aN Emanciration PociaMaTiox.-—-We have the fcllowing somewilint startling rumors in a New York dispatch of August 22: : A dispatch from Washington to the World says: It is openly asserted by the Emancipationists that the long politic: struggle is drawing to a close, that the Bs mang — borne by the pressure brought upon him wi issue a evel. ving freedom to all slaves, and this before the 15th of mber. The Tribune’s Washington correspondent says: In justice to all parties it seems proper to state the following, which we learn from so many sources that it cannot longer be considered a State secret: ‘I'wo or three sie A the President laid before the Cabinet a proclamation of Emancipation, abolishing slavery on the Ist of next ber, if the rebellion should not be crushed before then. He asked the opinion of his Ministers touching the proriety of issuing it. Secretary Smith, we befer. was absent, Of the others, all but two approved the proclation. Seward and Blair opposed it with all thelr might. The result did not appear. It is understood that the subject came came up at more than one cabinet meeting, but Seward and Blair remained resolute against the majority. There may, possibly, be some truth in these rumors, thongh the chances are about even that the whole will be @atly denied in the next dispatches that came over the con tinental line. Itis barely powsible, that vefore the war closes, an emaucipation decree might have the effect to strengthen the the cause of the Governmentin some localities—in South Carolina, for example—but for the Government to declare slaves free in sections where the Federal armies have never penetrated, and pe haps never will, would be the merest braggadicio, and bave no more effect than a decree of Jeff. Davis abolishing the common school system of the Northera States, Too Laxek For 17s BeeKcugs.—San Francisco is waid to have too large a population for the business of the country that supports it, A Bay paper remarks: It is said that San Francisco is, in vulgar parlance, “getting too big for its breeches;” that is, its population is larger than its business —there is not enough doing here to keep the ple in employ. ‘This is no doubt the case. This city is too large for the country. The population of the State is about 500,000, and that of tha city over 90,000, and of course the trade of the former is not sufficient to keep the latter in active operation, Ifwe would have the growth of the city in the future keep pace with its proress in the past, we must Increase our manufacturing facilities, stimulate the productive energy of the people, and use our utmost exertions to develop new resources in the interior, and to open new and improved means of communication with all parts of the State. New Or.eans lrams.—Advices from New Orleans to the 25th July state: Gen. Butler had ordered that all negroes who have been ordered by their masters to leave and join the Federals, will be regarded as emancipated. Masters had endeavored in many cases to reclaim them after the use of such expressions. Gen. Butler in a note to Reverdy Johnson,says no merchandise, whether cotton or fan will in any event be seized or confiscated by the United States authorities here. I, K. Farish, agent of the Rothchilds in New Orleans, had committed suicide. A number of persons had been arrested for an attempt to assassinate Thomas S. Burbank & Bro., among whom was Andree Delouke, Lo aa of John Slidell and Gen. Beauregard. ‘he price of flour had fallen to sixteen dollars per barrel. Ex Marsuat Rane.—The Carson Age, of Friday Jast, bas the following peisouul notice: Yesterday afternoon ex-United States Marshal Rabe, of San Francisco, left this city in the Overland coach for the East. The Marshal proposes to go to Washington and demand of the authorities there an investigation into the alleged and unexamined charges against him, which caused his removal. He is armed with any number of documents from the prominent officials, lawyers and business men of San Francisco, and he threatens to make warm quarters for certain of the officials of the Government in and about San Francisco, who he claims have persecuted him. _-———— --——Apvices from England state that there has been something like ® panic in the Londou money market. Consols had declined about two per cent. in the course of two or three days. Sratk Treasury.—At the close of business on Saturday last, there was $342,05783 in the State Treasury.

SPREADING.—Rey. Mr. Davidson, the TemIga ed y . ry TELEGRAPH. [SPECIAL TO THE DEMOCRAT.) — San Francisco, Aug. 26 The Union Democratic Convention met last evening pursuant to adjournment; J. P. Hoge in the chair. A County Central Committee, consisting of one from each district, was appointed. W. 8. O'Brine was nominated for the Assembly, which completed the Legislative candidates. Robt.

There are now fifty men employed on the new State Capitol. They are advancing rapidly in their labor. The Eastern jine is working to-day. No further fighting. CARD FROM MR. BYRNE, Epitor Nevapa Democrat:— John Ivanhoe Caldwell, of candidatorial notoriety, having set himself up as a “teacher in Israel,” it is proper that the Democratic people of this county should be made acquainted with the motive that prompts his course in the premises. In the first place the statement made by him that I bolted the Union Democratic State ticket last year, is a falsehood. The assertion that I didnot support the Union Democratic County ticket is also false. I pip Not support Mr, Caldwell for the position to which he was nominated (District Judge) for the reason that I believed him totall incompetent and unfitted for the position. Although a strong party-man, I acknowledge no obedience to party rules sufficient to compel me to ounntt. or a high judicial position, a man who has neither the natural ability nor the acquired learning requisite in such an office as District Judge. Being driven to a choice between such a man as J. I. Caldwell and gentlemen of tried competence and admitted ability, I am proud to say that I cast my vote for District Judge in accordance with the judgment which I felt free to exercise in reference to judicial candidates. Personal enmity to me, arising out of this circumstance, is the secret of Mr. Caldwell’s card. The conclusion arrived at by this “sound constitutional la vyer,” that my nomination or that of any candidate upon the ticket, was the result of any understanding or collusion with the Breckinridge party, is, like the remainder of his manifesto, false in all respects, and is, furthermore, too ridiculous to require any bs a refutation at my hands. y fealty to the Union and to the patriotic aatag 9 ofthe Union Democratic party, has never heretofore been questioned. Any statement affecting my loyalty to the Government, the Union and the Constitution of my country, I take this occasion to pronounce an unqualified falsehood, come from what source it may. If Mr. Caldwell’s design is to draw me into a newspaper controversy, I can inform him that he has failed in his object, for I shall take no notice of any further communication from him. Jas. K, Brune. Miurraky Opsxations In Virnginta.—The telegrapbic report published in our Jast, that the armies of McClellan, Burnside and Pope had formed a junction, or at least are in positions to support each other, is fully confirmed. Pope’s forces succeeded in crossing the Rappahannock without lose, and a large portion, if not all, of McClellan’a forces had also arrived. The following from the Philadelphia Press of the 23d, is the latest advices we have had from the quarter to which all attention is now directed: Gen. Pope has fallen back across the Rappahannock and made that stream a line of defence. The enemy is in great force on the south bank. He has made several ineffectual efforts to cross and turn our left flank, at the same time making demonstrations on our center. Such a disposition of our army has been made that there need be no fears. Gen. McClellan has arrived with a large portion of his army, and it is believed has assumed command. Fighting of a desultory character has been going on for several days. The enemy has no doubt been repulsed at all points by our batteries, though not without some loss of artillery, men and horses. During Thursday, Aug 2lst, . -— firing was heardon our extreme left, and it was believed that Gen. Reno had repulsed the . rebels, points. All advices indicate our success at all Revicious.—tThe S. F. Monitor, of Saturday last, has the following among its items of August 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, and 30th, 1862. local religious news: Mother Mary Russell, Superioress of the Convent of Mercy in this city, is now on a visit to Grass Valley, on the invitation of Right Rev.

F., August 22.—The bark George Henry, from Fishery Bay, with Mr. Hall, of the new Sir John Franklin exploration on board, has arrived. He reports that in con. sequence of the loss of some of his craft, he is. unable to prosecute his mission to the eatent of his desire, ‘The expedition has probably de termined the fate of two boats of Franklin's exition, who perished in endeavoring to return. all has also learned the fate of five men captured from the Free Fisher on the first voyage, and identified the exact place of their landing. Hall explored 1,000 miles of the coast, including the so-called Free Fisher's Straits, which proves to be a bay. The George Henry was about to start for the States on October 18, 1861, but was prevented by ice until the 9th.(?) Tuis paragraph is not very jutelligible, as it reads; but if we are not mistaken, Hall is the man who left Boston two or three years ago, to search for further traces of! the Franklin exploring expedition, Ie started in a whaling veesel, with the inten. . tion of leaving the versel when it reached . the Arctic regions, and prosecuting hir . searches alone. He considered himself as capable as the Esquimanx of enduring the hardships of that inhoxpitable clime, aud expected to be absent four or five vears SAR MN EN ONARE SOS ATA AES ERTS.

BYRNE, Epitor Nevapa Democrat:— John Ivanhoe Caldwell, of candidatorial notoriety, having set himself up as a “teacher in Israel,” it is proper that the Democratic people of this county should be made acquainted with the motive that prompts his course in the premises. In the first place the statement made by him that I bolted the Union Democratic State ticket last year, is a falsehood. The assertion that I didnot support the Union Democratic County ticket is also false. I pip Not support Mr, Caldwell for the position to which he was nominated (District Judge) for the reason that I believed him totall incompetent and unfitted for the position. Although a strong party-man, I acknowledge no obedience to party rules sufficient to compel me to ounntt. or a high judicial position, a man who has neither the natural ability nor the acquired learning requisite in such an office as District Judge. Being driven to a choice between such a man as J. I. Caldwell and gentlemen of tried competence and admitted ability, I am proud to say that I cast my vote for District Judge in accordance with the judgment which I felt free to exercise in reference to judicial candidates. Personal enmity to me, arising out of this circumstance, is the secret of Mr. Caldwell’s card. The conclusion arrived at by this “sound constitutional la vyer,” that my nomination or that of any candidate upon the ticket, was the result of any understanding or collusion with the Breckinridge party, is, like the remainder of his manifesto, false in all respects, and is, furthermore, too ridiculous to require any bs a refutation at my hands. y fealty to the Union and to the patriotic aatag 9 ofthe Union Democratic party, has never heretofore been questioned. Any statement affecting my loyalty to the Government, the Union and the Constitution of my country, I take this occasion to pronounce an unqualified falsehood, come from what source it may. If Mr. Caldwell’s design is to draw me into a newspaper controversy, I can inform him that he has failed in his object, for I shall take no notice of any further communication from him. Jas. K, Brune. Miurraky Opsxations In Virnginta.—The telegrapbic report published in our Jast, that the armies of McClellan, Burnside and Pope had formed a junction, or at least are in positions to support each other, is fully confirmed. Pope’s forces succeeded in

crossing the Rappahannock without lose, and a large portion, if not all, of McClellan’a forces had also arrived. The following from the Philadelphia Press of the 23d, is the latest advices we have had from the quarter to which all attention is now directed: Gen. Pope has fallen back across the Rappahannock and made that stream a line of defence. The enemy is in great force on the south bank. He has made several ineffectual efforts to cross and turn our left flank, at the same time making demonstrations on our center. Such a disposition of our army has been made that there need be no fears. Gen. McClellan has arrived with a large portion of his army, and it is believed has assumed command. Fighting of a desultory character has been going on for several days. The enemy has no doubt been repulsed at all points by our batteries, though not without some loss of artillery, men and horses. During Thursday, Aug 2lst, . -— firing was heardon our extreme left, and it was believed that Gen. Reno had repulsed the . rebels, points. All advices indicate our success at all Revicious.—tThe S.

F., August 22.—The bark George Henry, from Fishery Bay, with Mr. Hall, of the new Sir John Franklin exploration on board, has arrived. He reports that in con. sequence of the loss of some of his craft, he is. unable to prosecute his mission to the eatent of his desire, ‘The expedition has probably de termined the fate of two boats of Franklin's exition, who perished in endeavoring to return. all has also learned the fate of five men captured from the Free Fisher on the first voyage, and identified the exact place of their landing. Hall explored 1,000 miles of the coast, including the so-called Free Fisher's Straits, which proves to be a bay. The George Henry was about to start for the States on October 18, 1861, but was prevented by ice until the 9th.(?) Tuis paragraph is not very jutelligible, as it reads; but if we are not mistaken, Hall is the man who left Boston two or three years ago, to search for further traces of! the Franklin exploring expedition, Ie started in a whaling veesel, with the inten. . tion of leaving the versel when it reached . the Arctic regions, and prosecuting hir . searches alone.
