Repcsiic oF THE Paciric.—Venerating that school ot American politics of which Henry Clay and Daniel Webster were the illustrious exponents, we so much reverence the Union of the Republic as to think it next te criminal to admit the possible conltingevey of its dissolution, ‘Lrue it is the history of all nations proves that some time . . oY other we must all reach our culminating point of power and usefulness, and like all who have preceded us, decline and decay, We are sanguine enough to hope that the . day of our ruin is afar off. Hence, when we see it broached thatin the event of a dissolution of the Union, California Oregou would make a very nice Republic of themselves, we naturally suspect a larkiug wish on the part of those who make this prudent suggestion, for dissolution, as well asa too feeble faith in the Union. “Sufficient for the day is the evil tbereof.”’ If it must be that iolly shall soon triumph over wisdom in this Republic, and that the South shall separate from the North, then, when the “evil day cometh,’ and not till then, we shall have our say abouta ‘“Republic ou the Pacilic.’—[San Andreas Independent, Svurcrpp at Heatpspura.—At Healdsburg Sonoma county, D, MeMurry committed suicide on the 3d ipst., by taking a large quantity of cyanuret of potassium, Te was, Saysa correspondent of the Alta,a dagverrean artist, and therefore had this chemical bandy, and knew its deadly qualTwo of his acquaintances were iu bis room, waiting to have their pictures taken, They observed him mix the fatal dose, but supposed he was about his usual business, Turning to ove of them, he said, ‘Good-bye Tam going to die,”’ and without a change of countenance, or the twitching of a muscle, he drauk off the poison, and io ten min. utes be was dead. Mr, Murry was a young man of most exemplary habits, but he had become pecuniarily embarassed, and being . misanthropic turn of mind, never hilarious, . and constantly alone with his troubles, they drove him to snicide. He was born in Scotland, was about thirty-five years of age, and leaves a wife but no children, Proposep Fortirications oN PcGer Sounp.—Lieutenant Casey, of the Engineers now stationed at Steliacoom, Puget Sound, ity, with the view to the erection of Government fortifications, soon as Congress shall make the necessary appropriations. . and to secure,the lands against being pre-. where he remained some time, empted ky settlers, The supposition is that this point, at no distant day, will be made a second Sebastopol or Gibraltar, costing an outlay of several million dollars, mounting hundreds of guns, and bidding defiance to all that pass that way. ‘There is a good anchorage above, and good landing, with an easy access to the point, and fine springs of water in the immediate vicinity. The result of Lieutenant Casey’s examinatiou has been forwarded to Washington, Hicuway Ropuer.—On the 30th of November, according to the Placer Courier, Dr. ‘Traphazev, was on his way to Forest Hill from lowa Hill, when be was attacked by arobber, whom he drove off with bis riding whip. The Doctor says he was ascending the hill from Shirt-Tail'Canon, and having “ran late’ the night before, fell asleep. when he discovered dle, hand, The doctor having a cowhide in his struck the man across the face, . which had the effect to make him let go the . horse and take to the bushes, The doctor states that he was the lucky possessor of $2 50 at the time, fighting rather than to give up even smal! sum to the man of the road. that CarrLe Disease.—The Alameda Gazette has been informed that the cattle in San . Luis Obispo county are dying off at a fear. ‘fulrate, through the ageucy of a disease heretofore unknown in this State, and for which a name has not yet been designated. A singular factin regard to the disease is that it seems to discriminate between the ' American and native herds, confining itself exclusively tothe American. Mr. Yoakum says bis cattle have died off at an average of about one per day. Usparp Lerrers.—Under new orders, they go to the dead letter office, or at least are liable to be disposed of in that manner in two weeks after having been dropped in the post office. It is strange that there are men aod women who have not yet learned that all letters must be pre-paid. Mrs. Parrincton Evectep.—kR. P. Shilla. ber, of Boston, so well known as Mrs, Partiogton bas been elected to the Massachusetts Legislature. las Democrat. aud . His horse proceeded ona slow . ! walk and all at once stopped short, causing . the doctor to awake, an individual holding his horse by the bri. but that he preferred . Mr. Shillaber is a Doug: . VICISSITUDES OF Famiiirs.— Genealogy can never be popular except in its applica2H tion, Considered as a science, in whica the business is to investigate and record the de. scent of families, everything is against it— . its difficulty, dryness, and apparent narrow; mess and exclusiveness of interest, But . When the facts of the study are applied and . detailed by an ingenious man, its whole ap. pearance is altered. People who had be. fore rather dreaded the name of genealogy . begin to see that ithas one relation to . books like “Darwin on Species,’ and another to the last new circulating library romance ; while if they choose to extend their inquiries to its bearing on history and polities, new points of curiosity are present. } ed by it at every step. Much remains to be done for the subject; but Sir Bernard . Burke is doing much by presenting some . Striking features of it to the. world in an casy, agreeable, and cloquent way, The causes of the decay of families admit of an orderly Classification, and, what is more, the aristocracies of different nations, bowever, nulike in other respects, go through much the same historical dey elopments Feudal families have been succeeded in Europe by legal and mercantile ones, just as the Roman patricians were by the nobles : anda Mirabeau springs from the ruined older stock, just as Caesar did in the Roman world, In classifying the causes of family ruin, the first piyee must be eiven to the political oves, The old Saxon aristocracy fell chiefly inthe Danish wars: and their Norman successors inthe Scottish French and civil ones, Every social stroggle and social change has its martyred houses, In settled times, extravagance sometimes in electioneering, but more often personal—is the great destroyer. Often the last distinction of an energetic race, is their going to the devil, in an original way and ona great scale. In Seotland, the Ja. cobite families often took to drinking. which led to the remark, thatthe White Rose required a great deal of moisture.— {Atheneum, Bishop or Marysvitur.---Rev, Eugene O'Connell, Dean and Professor of Allhal. lows Missionary Castle, Dublin, bas lately . been appointed Bishop of the northern por. tion of this State. Archbishop Allemany . at the early settlement of California applied . to the above College for an assistant priest. . Father O'Connell volunteered and was chosen for this important mission on the . has been lately examining Point Defiance, . condition that he would retarn to the Col. under instructions from the proper author. lege when called upon. He arrived at San Francisco in the Summer of 1851, and Shortly afterwards commenced his pious la. bors at the College of the Mission Dolores. . wh A. priest being very much wanted in Lower Califor. nia who could speak English, Archbishop . Allemany sent Father O’Connell to fill the . call. He was stationed at Santa Barbara, . and having remained there about a year . and a half in the discharge of the duties ap. pertaining to the position, returned to San . Francisco, During his sojourn at Santa . Barbara a mutual attachment grew up between himself and the natives and Americans there resident rendering the severance . of his connection with his charge mutually painful. Soon after his return to San Francisco he left for Ireland, and on erriying there resumed his former position as Dean and Professor of Allballows College, which has produced some tmost excellent and eminent Catholic divines, who are now scattered throughout the United States and Europe. Bishop O’Connell is now on his way to California, and may be expected at an early day. The Catholic residents of California will be pleased to have among them permanently, such a pious and pro. found theologian.—[Sac. News, Case or Contempr.—Captain FE. Hammond king, formerly of the British army. and Jatterly proprietor of the Victoria Gazette, has been sentenced by Judge Pemberlon, of Victoria, to one month's imprisonment, and required to give security in $400 to keep the peace for six months after his imprisonment, for knocking down in Court a man who called bima Jiar, The most bumble apology and the strongest justifiable circumstances availed nothing in . mitigation of the heavy penalty imposed by the Court; Judge Pemberton intimatiny that a resort to a duel with deadly weapons would have been a more proper way for the captain to resent the insult he guifered, McGowan’s Inxsrructions.—A Mesilla correspondent of the San Francisco Herald writes that as Ned’s constituents are chiefly Southern, they will not be willing to accept an organization under Republican rule, and that he will be instructed, should the Sout! secede, to attend the Southern Convention and pledge the Territory to the Sonthern Confederacy, and to ask fora Territorial organization under that Confederacy. Tle writer speaks of the result of the Presidential election as disastrous, and expresses astonishment at the unexpected manner in ' which the vote of California foots up. i ry

Repcsiic oF THE Paciric.—Venerating that school ot American politics of which Henry Clay and Daniel Webster were the illustrious exponents, we so much reverence the Union of the Republic as to think it next te criminal to admit the possible conltingevey of its dissolution, ‘Lrue it is the history of all nations proves that some time . . oY other we must all reach our culminating point of power and usefulness, and like all who have preceded us, decline and decay, We are sanguine enough to hope that the . day of our ruin is afar off. Hence, when we see it broached thatin the event of a dissolution of the Union, California Oregou would make a very nice Republic of themselves, we naturally suspect a larkiug wish on the part of those who make this prudent suggestion, for dissolution, as well asa too feeble faith in the Union. “Sufficient for the day is the evil tbereof.”’ If it must be that iolly shall soon triumph over wisdom in this Republic, and that the South shall separate from the North, then, when the “evil day cometh,’ and not till then, we shall have our say abouta ‘“Republic ou the Pacilic.’—[San Andreas Independent, Svurcrpp at Heatpspura.—At Healdsburg Sonoma county, D, MeMurry committed suicide on the 3d ipst., by taking a large quantity of cyanuret of potassium, Te was, Saysa correspondent of the Alta,a dagverrean artist, and therefore had this chemical bandy, and knew its deadly qualTwo of his acquaintances were iu bis room, waiting to have their pictures taken, They observed him mix the fatal dose, but supposed he was about his usual business, Turning to ove of them, he said, ‘Good-bye Tam going to die,”’ and without a change of countenance, or the twitching of a muscle, he drauk off the poison, and io ten min. utes be was dead.

Luis Obispo county are dying off at a fear. ‘fulrate, through the ageucy of a disease heretofore unknown in this State, and for which a name has not yet been designated. A singular factin regard to the disease is that it seems to discriminate between the ' American and native herds, confining itself exclusively tothe American.

VICISSITUDES OF Famiiirs.— Genealogy can never be popular except in its applica2H tion, Considered as a science, in whica the business is to investigate and record the de. scent of families, everything is against it— . its difficulty, dryness, and apparent narrow; mess and exclusiveness of interest, But . When the facts of the study are applied and . detailed by an ingenious man, its whole ap. pearance is altered.

Much remains to be done for the subject; but Sir Bernard . Burke is doing much by presenting some . Striking features of it to the. world in an casy, agreeable, and cloquent way, The causes of the decay of families admit of an orderly Classification, and, what is more, the aristocracies of different nations, bowever, nulike in other respects, go through much the same historical dey elopments Feudal families have been succeeded in Europe by legal and mercantile ones, just as the Roman patricians were by the nobles : anda Mirabeau springs from the ruined older stock, just as Caesar did in the Roman world, In classifying the causes of family ruin, the first piyee must be eiven to the political oves, The old Saxon aristocracy fell chiefly inthe Danish wars: and their Norman successors inthe Scottish French and civil ones, Every social stroggle and social change has its martyred houses, In settled times, extravagance sometimes in electioneering, but more often personal—is the great destroyer. Often the last distinction of an energetic race, is their going to the devil, in an original way and ona great scale.

Barbara a mutual attachment grew up between himself and the natives and Americans there resident rendering the severance . of his connection with his charge mutually painful. Soon after his return to San Francisco he left for Ireland, and on erriying there resumed his former position as Dean and Professor of Allballows College, which has produced some tmost excellent and eminent Catholic divines, who are now scattered throughout the United States and Europe. Bishop O’Connell is now on his way to California, and may be expected at an early day. The Catholic residents of California will be pleased to have among them permanently, such a pious and pro. found theologian.—[Sac. News, Case or Contempr.—Captain FE.
