Vore Ear.y, Vote Orrex.—The Stockton Argus, of the 8th inst., referring to the
large vote in that county, says:
The large vote of this county at the recent
election requires explanation. Last year San
Joaquin cast 2,893 votes. Since then San Joaquin has been divided, loosing Knight’s Ferry
and other precincts, numbering between three
apd four hundred votes. How comes it that
Stockton alone counts more than half of the
whole of that vote? And how comes it that
the county, after losing some four hundred
votes, tow cast 526 votes more than it did
before it was divided? We fear this rule has
been carried out: ‘Vote early, vote often, vote
all the time!” ‘Two Breckinridge voters are already in jail for double voting, anc it is hoped
that others who were watched may be brought
to justice. This election in Stockton particufolly shows the necessity of a registry law. It is
the only way to protect the citizen in his right
of voting, and to prevent its being lost to him
by illegal votes.
Luperta.—The Philadelphia Ledger has
been presented with a specimen of coffee
raised on the plantation of President Benson, in Liberia. The berry is large and full,
of a light brown color, and is said to be the
best coffee known. Speaking of the future
prospects of Liberia, that paper says:
The remarkable prosperity of Liberia within
the last five years, in agricultural, commercial,
educational and religious aspects, the increasing enterprise of her citizens for pushing into
the interior and establishing new settlements,
the growing disposition of the colored ee e of
this country to bck to their ancestral land for
the which they seek almost in vain on this
continent, are ample tokens that the time is
rapidly approaching in which tho most ardent
aspirations of Christians and philanthropists
for Africa’s civilization and elevation will be
fully realized.
Weattuy Becoars.—A few days ago an
Italian beggar was arrested at Stockton, on
a charge of vagraucy, He was proven to
be worth at least $6,000, and the Justice,
before whom he was tried, fined him $30,
which he promptly paid. Cases of a similar character ase not rare. We notice in
an Eastern exchange an account of the arrest of a beggar in Paris, quite recently, for
having imposed upon the public in soliciting charity, when, instead of being in want,
he was found to be a wealthy man. The
ever viglant police of Paris made the discovery by searching his premises, where
evidences of his wealth appeared in the
shape of railroad and other securities.
Stm.ver 1x Ongcon.—A_ correspondent
writing from Springville, Multnomah county, Oregon, says:
Silver mines are all the rage in Oregon just
now. Since my last, new and important discoveries of immense silver leads have beon
made near City, on the Clackamas.
Whether untold millions of silver or not lie hidden in this vicinity, yet remains to be seen. The
probabilities are “or not” will be the unwelcome
result of the discovery.
Aponition Spiirrers.—Itis stated that
the Abolition party, of whieh Gerrit Smith
is the candidate for the Presidency, is about
to to split, or bas eplit. A portion of the
party is too strong in the faith for Smith,
and will vote against bim because they fear
that if be should become President he would
be too conservative. This split may imperil Mr. Smith’s election,
Quer Execrion.—In every part of the
State the election was conducted with unusual quietness and decorum. So far as
heard from, there was no fighting, or disturbances of any kind worth mentioning,
at any voting place in the State.
Ture political papers have suepended
siace the election—the Sacramento Democrat, (Breckinridge,) S. F. Nation, (Douglas,) and S. F. Constitution, (Bell-Everet'.)
They were probably only intended for campaign papers,
Onto Evecrioy.—The Republican majority at the October election in Ohio was
very much over estimated. Briokerhoff,
the Republican candidate for Supreme

OranceisM.—The old feud between the
Catholics and the Orangemen, which was
revived in Canada on the occasion of the
Prince’s visit there, is burning as flercely
as ever, especially on the part of the Catholics, who are preparing for war, and who,
says the . ew York Times, manifest no dispesition to treat their enemies with forbearance or consideration, One of their
organs bas come out with a programme of
future operations, It is proposed io pass a
law declaring members of the Orange Society incapable of gitting in Purliament,
aod of being Judges or Ministers of the
Crown, There is certainly some truth in
the argument urged that no Catholic expects justice froman Orangeman, who ie
sworn to further the triumph of bis own religion and the degradatioa of all others ;
but the remedy suggested is too violent to
have any chance of success. Its effect
would be to eolist the whole Protestant
feeling of the country ia behalf of Orangeiem ; and directly that is done, the Catbolic
being in the minority, are bound to go to
the wall.
A New Cave.—A cave has been discovered in Alachua county, Florida, which is
described as larger thau the Mammoth cave
of Kentucky, and as having au ancient Latin inscription on the walls, which states
that a party of Danes had visited this cave
in the year 1050, and that a priest who had
accompanied them had left this memorial of
their visit. The name of this priest was
Marcus Poleus, [It also stated that these
bold navigators had embarked on a voyage
of exploration, and had been driven far
soath; also that they had visited many large
islands, and finally had lauded in a thickly
populated country, where the people had
received them kindly, thinking them superior beings; that several of their number,
together with some Greek artisans and two
priests, bad been left there asacolony. Is
this a relic of the party that the Mexicans
say visited them four hundred years before
Cortez landed and taught them the arts of
civilized life, or is it a humbug?

Way Tay Votep ror Doveras.—The
Italian journal advised all natives of Italy
who were voters, to vote for Douglas yesterday, and, so far as known, the Italians
followed the advice to a man. The reasons
for their conduct are somewhat curious. It
appears that at the storming of some town
in Italy (Palermo, we believe) Garibaldi’s
valor got the better of his discretion. Supported by a few be eharged into the ranks
of the foe, revolver in hand, shot down
some of the enemy, made a breach in his
ranks, and then secured the capture of the
place. The revolver which played so important a part on that occasion, was one
presented to Garibaldi by Douglas. And
for these reasons the sone of Italy were advised to cast their votes for the Little Giant, aud they cast them.—[Call.
