Ifa man is dishonest enough to use falee measures and scales, he can aller them to swindle his customers in five minutes after the officer has put his seal upon them. The office should be abolished, and the use of false weights ov measures made a misdemeanor, If men are disposed to act dishonestly, no amount of official. supervision or espionage will prevent them. Tue Apmuisreation Cavina—The Pony Lixpress which left St. Louis October 25d, brings a report that the Adinidistration had issued orders to. the Federal offi¢e boldevs of the North and West to support the Douglas Electoral. tickets, The announcenent is telegraphed from St. Louis as‘ report only, and of course cannot be relied oo unless confirmed by the next arrival, Should the Administration withdraw its opposition to Douglas ia those States where the Breckinridge party is composed exclusively of office holders and their dependants, it is quite likely that several of the Western States which are now regarded as certain for Lincoln will go for Douglas. Fine anp Loss or Liave.—At half past two o’clock, yesterday morning, a fire broke outina vinegar factery, on Washington atreet, San Francisco. The flames soon communicated with the Miner’s Exchange boarding house, adjoining, in which thirtyfive persons were sleeping. With difficulty they alleecaped, with the exception of one man, supposed to be a Mr, Murpby, of Viacerville, who was burned to death. Two others were missing at last accounts, The loss is stated at about $5,000. A Canpipate Insurep,—James N. Makins a candidate on the Breckinridge ticket for the Assembly,.of Placer county, was prevented from prosecuting the canvass in bis county,” owing to injuries received by o boulder falling upon him inbis mining claim. He expected tobe able to get out oa crutches on election day. Wi. Carry.—The Constitutional Convention measure will doubtless be successful this year, In this county, the most of the tickets of all. parties-have the words “Fora Convention’? printed upon them; and the Republioans, who bave heretofore opposed the measure, generally support it now. Mx.Joun Jupp,.an old andesteemed citi+ zen of Grass Valley, died at Boston Ravine on Saturday last. Mr. Judd was an enterprising chance of being elected by tbe people ; but it is our opinion that no one will buvea majority of the electoral vote, and that the duty of electing a President and Vice Presidgnt will devolve upon the House of Représentatives and Senate, In that case, tbe Senate will bave to choose between the two The Presidential campaign is now brought . press, candidates who have the highest vote ; Hamlin will be one of these ; and we believe the vote of the Douglas and Bell Electors will be cast in such a manner as to prevent the name of Lane from going before the Senate, thus compelling that body to choose between Hamlin and Jobnson or Kyeretl. The names of the three bighest candidates for President wou'd go before the House, but that body as now constituted would not be likely toelect either, and whoever the Senate elected Vice Presideat—which would be Jobason or Everett—would succeed to the Presidency. If enough of the Northern States go for Douglas to prevent the election of Lincoln, the Douglas electors, by voting for Everett, could give him more votes than will be given for Lane, thus putting it out of the power of the Senate to elect the latter Vice President, and reodering it impossible for him to succeed to the Presidency. This was the only hope which the Breckinridgers could have had of retainiog control of the Federal Government for the next four years. Unless Lincoln is elected by the people, the probability is that Everett and Hamlin will be the two highest candidates for Vice President ; that the Senate willelect Everett to that position, and he will succeed as President on the failure of the House to eleet. Iu any event, we may rest assured that the country is safe, Srappina Arrray at Genoa.—A dispatch to the Union, from Genoa, Carson Valley, says that a stabbing affair occurred there, on the afternoon of the 4th, between Dy Sands, of the Genoa Hotel, and R.

The difficulty is said to haye originated fram some real or imaginary insult to Mrs. Sands, Sands gave himself up to thefauthorities,for trial, Homicibe.—A Chilian, named Manuel’ Augusto, was ehot lately in a dance bouse at Placerville, by a Mexican named Pancho. The ball took effect in the neck, killing him instantly. No cause is assigned for the aet, aDweiuine Burnep.—A dwelling house occupied by Joel D, Mavtin, in Marysville, was destroyed by fire Yast Friday afternoon.

Tux Bounpary Survey.—Gov, Downey has declined to appoint a Commissioner, in behalf of the State, to aet with Lieutenant Mowry in the survey of the eastern boundary of the State, because there is no law authorizing bim to make such an appointment.
