A New Route to rHEe Paciric.—A cor. respondent of the Courier des Etats Unis, writing from Monaqua, in Nicaragua, gives information of the discovery of a new route to the
Pacific ocean. The Atlantic terminus is about
midway the Mosquito coast, ona stream marked on the map, “Rio Grande.” This is deseribed as large enough to admit our ocean steamers, although it has been wholly overlooked
thus far. The water of the river is deep, eighty
miles inland, from which point it is but one
hundred and twenty-three miles to the Pacific,
over a level plain. All conditions favorable to
. the enterprise are declared by the writer to be
supplied by this route. Not only is the level
of the henitoiaitey indicated, but the climate is
less torrid than that of Louisiana, the region being singularly healthful; while the tim. ber necessary to engineering labors is convenient and abundant.
Ann THEY MAp.—It is a settled fact that if
Lincoln is elected, he will find that his supporters in the House of Representatives will be in
a minority. As for the Senate, every one
knows that it would be impossible for a law infringing on the rights of the South,to pass that
. body. And yet, some of the Breckinridge lead. ers are telling us that the Union will be dis. solved whenever Lincoln is inaugurated as
President, and at the same time are aiding the
election of Lincoln by supporting Breckinridge
against Douglas, who is the only man that can
defeat Lincoln. Are they mad, are they working for nothing else but a dissolution of the
". Union ?—[Marysville Democrat.
Don ANTONIO GANDARA.—A few day ago,
we received intelligence of the probable overthrow of.Pesqueira in the State of Sonora. At
the head of the Yaqui Indians and Mexicaninsurrectionists is Don Antonio Gandara, who
himself seeks to be Governor. It is reported
that he is immensely rich, equally popular, and
is manly and brave enough to fill any position
. with honor and dignity. A correspondent of
the St. Louis Republican says that he is now
about twenty-five years of age, athletic, an expert horseman, commanding in appearance,
and experienced in the use of weapons.
Supreme Court.—The following order,
which is of interest to members of the bar .
throughout the State, was made last Friday, in
the Supreme Court:
Ordered—No arguments will be heard in any
civil cases until the January term, except by
special order made upon previous notice to the
adverse party, and for good cause shown.
Criminal cases and motions will be heard on
. the second Monday of the present month,
. Civil cases may be submitted on written argument at. any time, upon filing with the Clerk a
stipulation to that effect.

Reciamine Ture Lanp.—The Sonoma .
Tule Land company are at work reclaiming or .
. draining 8,000 acres of little swamps. They
dig a ditch two feet deep and then pack it solid
. full of mud, continuing the structure two feet
above ground. The whole length of the dyke
projected is ten miles; after the dyking is com.
pleted they will prepare the land with steam
plows, and will plant rice, tobacco, hemp and
various sorts of vegetables. The system of
drainage does not seem very effective, estimated by description given.

Mystrery.—We learn from the Columbia
Times, that a few days since, the bones ofa}
. man were discovered by some miners who were
. at work in the rear of Middleworth’s brewery,
at Sonora. The remains had fragments of
clothing, together with a silk sash about them.
No steps have as yet been taken to inquire into
this most singular discovery. There seems to .
be considerable mystery connected with this af. fair, which an effort should be made to solve.
Ferretine Tuem.—A young man of Stock, ton lately received a present of two English
. ferrets. He took them out to a large rat hole
the next morning, and the little fellows rushed
. into it and a terrible squealing was heard. In
an incredibly short space of time, something less
. than a minute, they killed sixteen, and came
. out of the hole and were bagged. ‘The number
. many of the Indians to desert,
. killed was ascertained by digging out the hole.
Nor THE MurDERER.—Noland, having ar.
rived from Washoe, acquits the man Bulger,
. or Chamberlain, arrested at Marysville, of be. ing the individual who leveled the gun at him, .
. near Sierra City, and who it is supposed murdered Colony. He is still retained in jail on
suspicion of being one of the gentlemen who
appropriated Young’s horses in Sierra Valley
some weeks ago.—[Sierra Citizen.
Suootine At Forest Ciry.—The Sierra
Citizen says one of those unfortunate mistakes
in the feminine creation was shot at in Forest
City, on Monday night, October 22d by Bill
Harris. We know nothing of the particulars,
but have been informed that the shooting was
partly justifiable.
Monster Pear.—According to the Marys. ville Appeal, Mr. Briggs, of Marysville, raised
a pear on his ranch this season that weighed .
over twenty-eight ounces! It was of the Flemish Beauty variety.

Horrible Atrocities in Lower California,,
A letter from Lower California confirms
the intelligence of the arrival of a gaug of
thieves from Los Angeles, The corres.
pondent of the Alta, writing on the 12th of
October, says : ,
“A gang of thieves and murderers have
lately invaded Lower California. As soon
as the Mexican territory was reached they
aroused the Indians against the settlers
and eid and the ruffians killed, without
a Ny the rich and honest men they could
Some time since a number of murderers
and outlaws escaped from Upper to Lower
California, ‘ ? "comprehended the scholars of Joaquin, Flores and others, who occasioned so much terror in Sonora Mariposa, San Luis and San Juan. Fora time
Governor Esparza got the better of them
but they finally triumphed. They threatened to extend their depredations to the
American territory, B,W.”
In addition to the foregoing, we translate
portions of w letter to the Echo du Pacifique
dated Oct. 12th, from San Luis Rey; '
“The band of robbers mentioned.in the
Herald some time ago, as having gone from
Los Angeles to Lower California, have arrived and commenced the most horrible
atrocities, They murdered nearly all they
met aud robbed every one they could Jay
hands oh. Among those already killed are
the following persons :
D. D. Casimiro Perez, Ayothon Senior
Abraham Marron, Cipriano Costro, Andres
Vidal, Franciseo Ribera, Jose M. Rodriguez, A. Mauriquez, Cristobal Pallejaro
Vicente Rosas, M. Silva and Geronimo
Laurel.
M. Silva was an American and Sefior
Laurel a native of Buenos Ayres,
These pirates (says the correspondent of
the Echo) carry a list containing thirtythree names of those doomed to death.
They have already killed twelve, leaving
twenty-one more to assassinate. Among
the doomed are the Governor, the Priest
the Judges and the Council of the country.
The robberies of cattle bave been very
considerable on the ranches. The greatest
sufferors are Sefior Ramon Rivas, the Priest
of Santo Tomas, Don Mariano Valdivia and
F. Ribera. Everything on the frontier is
covered with flame and blood. These bandits reepect no one, not even their own
brothers, These pirates come from Upper
Culiforuia, bat are not Americans. Tbe

himself. It is said that bis death has caused
c The Governor is aware of this invasion and has arsembled the people of the country and fortified himself on the property of the Rev.
Father Alric. He bas provisions for a long
time, and his position is very favorable for
making resistance. The pirates are more
. humerous than the troops of Governor Esparza, the Indians alone numbering about
two hundred. Despite this superiority of
the enemy, I believe that the Governor
will triumph,”
Naro.eon’s Estimate or THe ['rantans,—
Louis Bonaparte, ex-King of Holland, and
father of the French Emperor, in his reply
to Scott’s history of Napoleon, relates the
. following:—“I was near Napoleon one day
when he received from—if lam not mistaken—an aid-de-camp of Marshal Soult the
report of some victories in Spain; of one,
among others, in which the Italian troops
had greatly distinguished themselves, One
of the persons who stood by exclaimed, on
bearing this, “that the Ttalians showed
themselves worthy of their independence,
and that it was to be wished that the whole
. of Italy should be united as one nation.’’
“God forbid,” exclaimed Napoleon, snddenly, and unable to restrain himself,
“they would goon be the. masters of the
Gauls,”
Great CoxrLaGration IN SMyrna.—Late
advices from Asiatic Turkey announce that
a terrible disaster by fire bad befallen. the
city of Smyrna, on the 27th August. The
. quarter of the town known as St. Dimitri
was laid in ashes. Over seven hundred
houses were consumed and many gardens
burned over, The weather had been for
some time excessively hot, which reudered
allirflammable materials an easy prey to
the flames, which spread with terrible rapid
ity. The residents of the ill-fated locality
were nearly all Greeks, and were chiefly
day workers at different trades. The cause

Virgin, and having left it burning, it causeeepc
