Special Order No, 126 Charley Morton, Hamilton Kennedy, Alonzo Lewis, colored men, formerly , Committee closes the door against all ean: . slaves employed in the rebel service, and didater; to morrow night the Union Demo. taken as a contraband of war, are hereby _crats meet to place their horses on the track; . confiscated; and not being needed in the }and the Republicans are planning to win . public service, are permitted to pass the . the race, if possible. In certain quarters! pickets of this command Northward, withthere is a disposition to “fuse”? the Repub. out let or hindrance, and are forever eman. ties. Decker, Jewett & Paxton, . licaus and Union Democrats, for the pur. cipated from the service of masters who al. lowed them to aid in efforts to break up the Government efour country, By command of Major General Samuel R. Curtis. Hi. Z. Curtis. Assistant Adjutant General, This order is brief and to the purpose, . says St. Louis Democrat, It is within the letter of the Act of Congress of August 1861, Its effect is to eet those slaves free beyond any lawfal reclamation hereafter. . The order being one which it was unques. tionably competent for Gen, Curtis to make as a military commander, has the force and and efficacy ofa judicial decree to these men . and having thas become legally free, they . can never become lawfully enslaved again unless they voluntarily incur the penalties prescribed against free blacks in some of the slave States, The precedents are abundant to establish principle which is ample warrant for Gen. Curtis, These precedents are found in the conduct of General Guines, General Taylor and General Jessup, in the Florida war, and show that slaves, by military law and usage in this country, belonging to au ene. my are belligerents; slaves, men, women and children, when captured, are prisoners of war, to be set free or otherwise disposed of by the commander, pose of defeating the People’s nominees, but, then again, that disposition is strong. . ly battled against by members of both parThe probabilities are that we shall have three tickets in the field for local officers, neither one of which will amount to mueh if elected. Of late, we notice a grow ing dispysition among Union Democrats to . preserve their party organization intact; 1 . looking at the matter from a political stand point, we think this disposition evinces . more real sazacity than is usually displayed by the Jeaders of that party.—[Evening . Journal, Henvess Pass.— We learn the following particulars concerning the Henuess Pass . route, from a gentleman who started on foot for California by that road last week. He struck snow first on the Dog Valley Hill . } and found it from four to six feet deep between that and Sardine Valley. It would be impossible to get over Dog Valley Hill with animals at present, as the enow is very soft: even foot traveling is very laborious and difficult, At Sardine Valley he was forced to turn back; there was no possible . way of proceedibg except on snow shoes, Snow between Eureka and Sardine Valley is represented as being from eight to ten feet deep, by a party of men, who came . over from the first mentioned place on snow shoes, This party, consisting of five men, . was five uays in getting to Sardine Valley. . The snow, however, is going off very fast, tinue, pack animals might be able to cross in three or four weeks, and teams in six wecks, Some of the owners of stations . wintered in the mouniaios.—[Territorial . Ku terprise. . —— Tue OnerrLoweo Lanps.—It is general ity believed that much of the overflowed lands along the river bottoms bave been forever ruined by the decp deposits of sand, The California Farmer says ou the subject: In many places along the banks of the Sacramento, the flood will prove really beneficial to the land; for where it has made a . deposit of three, four, six, or eight inches . of sand, when this is plowed in,it will prove . very beneficial, increasing the fertility and . value of the land. There are many places, however, where, by a very large deposit of . several feet, the Jand for present uses is nearly destroyed. We would suggest to lall, the experimenting upon this kind of soil, by planting melons, cucumbers, beans 'or peas, if principally eand; if a richer . substance, plant beets, sugar cane, pota. . . toes, and pea nuts, the Jatter especially. Srockton Exnecrion.—The election in . Stockton, on Monday. resulted in the vir. ltual triumph of the Union ticket. Littie . more than 800 votes were polled, ed witha star being rao in opposition to . the Union ticket: Mayor—E. S. Holden. Alderman of the First ward.—Austin . Sperry, B. W. Owens, R.5S. Bates, M.

Shovels ‘and epades are used altogether. Very lit. tle use here fora pick. After the ground . feet, you come fo a layer of gravel or sand, in which the gold is. Rockers are used eutirely. Ihave not seen arock here that . would weigh over two puunds, not many . over an ounce, One blacksmith,would be . sufficient for this whole mining region, Ccriovs Eao.—Mr. Henry Giannini, of Mark West Creek, Sonoma county, recently found a dock’s egg which, on breaking, be found to contain another egg govt fect, aod with a bard shell.

Thresher*, John W. Harta, T. A, Stombs*, . From tar Lower Mississirp1.—A Cairo . dispatch, of May Sth, says: Refugees from Memphis a week since report that Memphis papers, of Suoday last, published a dispatch announcing the occu. pation of Baton Rouge by Federal troops, Gen. Butler’s army had landed and occupied New Orleans, Large numbers of citi. zens had held public rejoicings, attended by hundreds who iudulged in enthusiastic . demonstrations of joy in the passage of our gunboats up the river, No opposition wag . made at Baton Rouge. The rebel troops, . lately enlisted and stationed there, fled at . the approach of the fleet. Publication of . the news in regard to the movements of the Federal fleet is forbidden by Southern au. thorities, but the informants learned from . persons from below that the guoboats had . passed below Adams and were near Fort . Dana, At Vicksburg fortifications, which . bad been in progress of constriction last week, were nearly completed. Gone of heavy calibre had been ¢ent from Memphis, and are mounted for its defense. The rolling stock of the different railroads bas been concentrated at Memphis to taka away citizens on the approach of the enemy; all the cities and towns along the river are in great terror at the unexpected capture of New Orleans. Great indignation is felt towards . Gen, Lovell, who is accused of cowardice and imbecility, ———, MoCriiian’s Wire Disrrisutine Tracts. ~The New York correspondent of the Bulletin is responsible for the following: The Washington Chronicle of Saturday relates a fact concerning the wife of the commanding General which is looked upon in Washington political circles as possess. ing much significauce, It is said that the wife of Gen, McClellan is engaged in citculuting the books and tracts of the Boston Tract Society among the soldiers—writing her name in each book. As the Boston So. ciety is known as the anti-slavery organization, in contradistinction to the New . York Tract Society, the ecclesiastics will consider this a significant item of news, The reason why Mre, Clellan distributes the , . tracts of the Boston Anti Slavery Traét Soe * . ciety, instead of those of its rival society in” this city, is doubeless owing solely to the fact that the Boston organization bas got the start of the other in the matter of furnishing her with their publications. Tine in Scorr VaALLEY.—On the afternoon . of May 2d, an extensive fire occurred at Fort . Jones, Scott Valley. The two story blacksmith shop of Mr. i. A. Godfrey was discover. ed on firé, supposed to have caught from sparks . and was soon enveloped in flames. The fire . spread to two or three adjoining dwellings . which were also totally consumed. The win . was blowing strong at the time, and, fortunately . in the right directionto save the whole town . from destruction. . Risgpor tHe Josquin.—Gentlemen from San Joaquin as high as the mouth of the Merced, informs the Independent that the river has risen rapidly within the past few days and was on Saturday over its banks in many places, and still on the rise. The late rains and melting snows in the mountains are the cause.

Curtis. Hi. Z. Curtis. Assistant Adjutant General, This order is brief and to the purpose, . says St. Louis Democrat, It is within the letter of the Act of Congress of August 1861, Its effect is to eet those slaves free beyond any lawfal reclamation hereafter. . The order being one which it was unques. tionably competent for Gen, Curtis to make as a military commander, has the force and and efficacy ofa judicial decree to these men . and having thas become legally free, they . can never become lawfully enslaved again unless they voluntarily incur the penalties prescribed against free blacks in some of the slave States, The precedents are abundant to establish principle which is ample warrant for Gen. Curtis, These precedents are found in the conduct of General Guines, General Taylor and General Jessup, in the Florida war, and show that slaves, by military law and usage in this country, belonging to au ene. my are belligerents; slaves, men, women and children, when captured, are prisoners of war, to be set free or otherwise disposed of by the commander, pose of defeating the People’s nominees, but, then again, that disposition is strong. . ly battled against by members of both parThe probabilities are that we shall have three tickets in the field for local officers, neither one of which will amount to mueh if elected. Of late, we notice a grow ing dispysition among Union Democrats to . preserve their party organization intact; 1 . looking at the matter from a political stand point, we think this disposition evinces . more real sazacity than is usually displayed by the Jeaders of that party.—[Evening . Journal, Henvess Pass.— We learn the following particulars concerning the Henuess Pass . route, from a gentleman who started on foot for California by that road last week. He struck snow first on the Dog Valley Hill . } and found it from four to six feet deep between that and Sardine Valley. It would be impossible to get over Dog Valley Hill with animals at present, as the enow is very soft: even foot traveling is very laborious and difficult, At Sardine Valley he was forced to turn back; there was no possible . way of proceedibg except on snow shoes, Snow between Eureka and Sardine Valley is represented as being from eight to ten feet deep, by a party of men, who came . over from the first mentioned place on snow shoes, This party, consisting of five men, . was five uays in getting to Sardine Valley. . The snow, however, is going off very fast, tinue, pack animals might be able to cross in three or four weeks, and teams in six wecks, Some of the owners of stations . wintered in the mouniaios.—[Territorial . Ku terprise. . —— Tue OnerrLoweo Lanps.—It is general ity believed that much of the overflowed lands along the river bottoms bave been forever ruined by the decp deposits of sand, The California Farmer says ou the subject: In many places along the banks of the Sacramento, the flood will prove really beneficial to the land; for where it has made a . deposit of three, four, six, or eight inches . of sand, when this is plowed in,it will prove . very beneficial, increasing the fertility and . value of the land. There are many places, however, where, by a very large deposit of . several feet, the Jand for present uses is nearly destroyed. We would suggest to lall, the experimenting upon this kind of soil, by planting melons, cucumbers, beans 'or peas, if principally eand; if a richer . substance, plant beets, sugar cane, pota. . . toes, and pea nuts, the Jatter especially.

From tar Lower Mississirp1.—A Cairo . dispatch, of May Sth, says: Refugees from Memphis a week since report that Memphis papers, of Suoday last, published a dispatch announcing the occu. pation of Baton Rouge by Federal troops, Gen. Butler’s army had landed and occupied New Orleans, Large numbers of citi. zens had held public rejoicings, attended by hundreds who iudulged in enthusiastic . demonstrations of joy in the passage of our gunboats up the river, No opposition wag . made at Baton Rouge. The rebel troops, . lately enlisted and stationed there, fled at . the approach of the fleet. Publication of . the news in regard to the movements of the Federal fleet is forbidden by Southern au. thorities, but the informants learned from . persons from below that the guoboats had . passed below Adams and were near Fort . Dana, At Vicksburg fortifications, which . bad been in progress of constriction last week, were nearly completed.. Gone of heavy calibre had been ¢ent from Memphis, and are mounted for its defense. The rolling stock of the different railroads bas been concentrated at Memphis to taka away citizens on the approach of the enemy; all the cities and towns along the river are in great terror at the unexpected capture of New Orleans.

As the Boston So. ciety is known as the anti-slavery organization, in contradistinction to the New . York Tract Society, the ecclesiastics will consider this a significant item of news, The reason why Mre, Clellan distributes the , . tracts of the Boston Anti Slavery Traét Soe * . ciety, instead of those of its rival society in” this city, is doubeless owing solely to the fact that the Boston organization bas got the start of the other in the matter of furnishing her with their publications.
