The meeting then adjourned with nine tremeudous cheers for the Union. A Curtovs $60,000 OprRaTION.—It seems Secretary Thomas, of the Treasury, left office rather suspiciously. A dispatch from Washington, dated January 14, says: ‘Thomas, before he left, ordered to be paid $60,000, said to be due the Constitution newspaper, for printing, which paper, it is added, in consideration, went over to secession against Buchanan,—the $60,000 being the consideration. Ex-Gov. Medill, Comptroller of the Treasury, refused my od the draft upon the ground that the bill was ‘bous. Mr. Clayton, of Ga.,to be removed toay ag a secessionist, (one of Mr. Cobb’s men,) called upon Mr. Medill, in his character of Assistant at the Treasury, demanded to know why Medi!l would not pay a draft signed by the Secretary of the Treasury. Mr, Medill replied, in his judgment, the whole concern was a fraud, and he would not pay; unless ordered by the new Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Dix. Mr, Clayton blustered, but Medill won’t pay.” Fu. Sweer.—A dispatch from Washington, Jan. 4th, to the New York Express, furnishes the following:—The Southern seceding Senators do not intend any resistance here to Army and Navy bills, etc., as the Republicans have been saying. Mr. Toombs, of Georgia, has already gone home. Both Jefferson Davis and Gov. Brown, of Miss., will go home. The Senators from Alabama leave Tuesday; also, the Floridians, This ‘secession’ leaves the Senate in Republican bands, and the House, too, The intention isto give the Republicans full sweep, full responsibility. The South now expects nothing beyond the arbitrament of arms. Tue Op Vereran,—A Wasbiagton correspondent says: ‘Lieut, General Scott looks with a soldier’s anxious eye upon the defenceless condition of Washington City, and asks for 6,000 militia men to protect and defend the District of Colombia against all threats, and all attempts to take possession of the Federal Capital, in order to prevent the inauguratioa of the President elect. The request of the old veteran stirs up a comotion, but the conquorer of Mexico shrinks not from duty. The closing acts of his life are the most painful and heroic of all; but he is acting for duty without fear or favor, and yet with a heavy heart. Brvrat Assavir.—The Grass Valley National says: Mr. Poland’s residence, in Boston Ravine, was entered on Thursday night last, by a villain, who assaalted Mr, P. with a bottle while the latter was in bed, and inflicted a wound on his forehead, which exposed the bone at least one inch aoda half, The raffian then absconded. Arnab Horses.—Rarey, the great horse tamer, in a lecture before a New York audience said that he bad been all through Arabia, and he desired to correct a false impression concerning the Arabian horses, To bis mind the English blood horses are two hundred years ahead of them, and are intinitely preferable in a variety of ways. War Risks.—It is said that a gentleman of San Francisco, formerly a citizen of Lou. isiana, hasdetermined to send ro more treasure to the East until he is notified that the policy of insuranee will also cover the war . _ . risk, Breakine Jart.—Five prisoners broke jail at Mokelumne Hill, on Wednesday night, Insane Asytum.—Dr. W, P. Tilden, of . They left a note to the Sheriff advising him Butte county, isa candidate for Superinthat they desired a ehange of air. —_ Tue Stockton artesian well has supplied that city with 15,000 gallons of water per bour, unintermittiogly, since 1857. An extensive fire, destroying nearly the entire village, occurred at Jesus Maria, Calaveras county, on Thursday last. it Tie ladies of the St. John Chureb, at Stockton, gave a calico hop, ia that city, on Friday eveuivg last. Uston Meerrye at Oaktaxp.—A large . mit Monnay, Feb. 11. Brooks vs. Small et al—Motion for perpetual injunction gr : e “vs. Kempton—indicted for arson.

Rule bones 9 _ the jurors in attendance be discharged for the term. Turspay, Feb. 12, Wallace vs. ington—for foreclosure of mechanic’s liens.—Cause tried and submitted, and taken under advisement by the Court. Adjourned until Monday next. Fata, Arrray at ToMALES.—The Petaluma Argus says that a free fight occurred at Tomales, on Sunday of last week, in which Burt Stoddard was cut in two places, once on the shoulder and once in the left side between the hip and ribs, which is pronounced fatal. He was also severely bruised in several places. Irwin received two severe cuts, and several bruises; but will recover. A man named Murphy was struck on the back of the head with a club, and serigusly injured. A large number received black eyes, bites, bruises, &c. _. Trrnevi’s PaNonAMA.—From a paragraph in the Boston Post, we infer that Tirrill’s Panorama of California is creating quite a sensa~tiom m the East. ATT’S NERVOUS ANTIDOTE— For Sale by BE. ¥.
