KIDD, . . J. Matias Moreno, NUMBER 537 . Aevatl f PVAGA Democrat. Lower CaLirornia.—A correspondent of the Los angeles Star, writing from San Diego, October 24th, says: Warlike prevarations are again being made iu Lower California, The cause is said to be a report circulated here about a week ago, that Eeparsa, late Governor of Lower California, was iu Los Angeles raising men for the purpose of overthrowing the present Government, and reinstating himself in authority down there. An exodus of the people, not unlike that of the Israelites from Egypt, is now taking place from that country ioto this and adjoining They are said to be in a good state of discipline, and well supplied with the needful
sinews of war, under the management of the present Governor. Taking these reports as granted, we may look for some stirring war news from that section soon, Tae Coat Freip In Wasuaor.—lIt has recently been found that the coal indications extend to the north and south of the original Whitman claim, a distance of two or three miles, making the entire range over which good signs are met with fully five miles long, and about two and a balf wide. Quite a number of claims have lately been surveyed for different parties along El Dorado canon, thongh we do not hear that any genuine vein has yet been struck in that vicinity. The heaviest deposit so far discovered is on Col. Whitman’s grounds, tho’ several other claims adjoining his on the north gone equally well. The report of coal having been found in the Flowery Districs, started a short time since, seems to lack confirmation ; though the Whitman coal field evidently stretches that way, and . the article will probably yet be found in that district, at a greater depth than on the elevated lands further south.—(Silver Age, Mora Svasron ror Repers.—We have come to the eonclusion that the Confederates are in earnest about this rebellion, and that, by process known to all fanatical peoVORK PRICES. ple, they have—that is, the most of them— convinced themselves they are in the right, Let it be our duty to point ont their error. So they are now assailing the Union and won't have peace, it will be becoming in us to meet them in a kind spirit, and win them . back by the moral suasion of an overwhelming military force.—(Missouri Repnolican, LarGe Fourie Mitu.—The Bulletin is informed that J. H. Carroll & Co., in connection with Coover & Stockton, of Folsom, are now engaged in building at the latter place the largest flouring and grist mill in the State, consisting of nine run of stone, Rendering the work much LIGHTER and CHKgpPER and baviug the capacity to manufacture than GOLD !! yet equally durable and more F ful, It absorbs no moisture!

The mill will be . in operation in six weeks. ec . AN immense breakwater has just been ‘completed at Portland, on the southern coast of England. The whole work was done by convict labor. It is described as a . mole of loose stone, three hundred feet in . breadth at the base, one hundred feet in . hight, and a mile anda balfin length. It . has cost, in round numbers, £900,000, twice . the estimated expense. At the end of the . mole a first-class fortress will be built, Lone SLumBeriInGc Hypropuopra,—A man Port Royal Entrance and Beaufort, . The latest news tells that our fleets were bombarding at these two points. Port Royal Entrance is the entrance to Broad River, between Port Royal Island, on whieh Beaufort is located, and the main land, and is also the entrance to Beaufort river, which empties into Broad river. The town of Beaufort is located at the head of navigation on Beaufort river, and is about eixteen miles from the sea. Itis the main town of the Beaufort district, South Carolina—the most southern seaboard district of that State—and in 1850 bad a white population of 879 persons. There are three channels over the bar at the mouth of Broad river, as shown by the Coast Survey of 1855. The bar is some ten miles from the headlands, The east channel has seventeen feet of water at mean low tide; the southeast channel, nineteen feet at mean low tide, andthe south channel nineteen feet aleo ; while beyond that, all the way up to Beaufort, the river has not less than fifteen feet. This depth would permit the largest vessels to enter at high water.— Thereisa fine supply of excellent fresh water near the junction of Beaufort river with Broad river. The Charleston and Savannah railroad runs inland about fifteen miles from Beaufort, and there isa good country read from Beaufort to it, the distance thereby being some eighteen miles, The entire length of the railroad from Charleston to Savannah is 104 miles, and the Beaufort county road will strike it about two-thirds of that distance from Charleston. This railroad links onto all the other railroads in the South, Inside the bar the harbor is very fine, and that, in conneetion with complete possession of Port Royal Island or St. Helena Island, which fe still nearer the sea, might be made a fine basie of operations against the rebellious cities of Charleston and Savannah, The news of the fleet hovering on their coast has startled the South Carolinians and Georgians, and they are running hither and thither to meet it, not knowing where it may strike.—[Sac. Bee. _— Sart 1n Tue Sourn.—The Scientific American says the statements regarding a want . . . of saltin the South are ineorreet. It is supposed that the South is entirely dependent upon the North or foreign importation for its supply of this necessary substance, but this is not the case, Next to New York Virginia makes the greatest quantity of salt annually of any State io the Union, The amount manufactured by New York is 5,503,447 bushels per annum: by Virginia, 3,650,000 bushels, by Florida, 70,000. Salt is mavufactured in eleven States, the total product being 13,388,447 bushels. But as that is not quite half the amount that is required for use, we import 14,094,227 bushels, of which 10,335,256 came from England. France Tornino Tue TaBies on Russia. —A new French pampblet, entitled The Rhine and the Vistula, and ascribed to very high inspiration, has appeared in Paris, It protests that France does not want the Rhine; that consequently Germany has nothing to fear from her; but, as regards the Vistula, it argues that Russia bas designs in that direction, and France merely watches ber opportunity to guard herself against Russia. Germany should encourage a reconstruction of Poland. The pamphlet is regarded asan effort to propitiate the King of Prussia on bis approaching visit and allay the apprebension of Germapy.
