The work of grading the first seetion of the railroad from Folsom to Aubure has also been commenced, vad is now being pusbed forward rapidly.

The stage started from Atchison, Kansas, aud mast bave left about the L6tb, at which time a band of marauders had possession of St. Joseph. Secession Fi.aas,—Considerable excitement was created at Stoekteu on Sunday morning last, by the sight of three or four secession flags, which bad been raised during the night in different parts of the town: The treasonable emblems were token down by the citizens, and the stars and stripes run up io their places. Vorg or tux Strate.—A San Francisco dispatch, of yesterday, gives tbe total vote for Governar, as follows: Stanford, 55,431; OConness, 30,156; McConnell, 30,576. In this estimate the fraudulent vote at Big Springs, Mono county, is not included. PResentation,—A set of colors was presented in Shasta, Sept, 23d, by Miss Anna Sprague, in behalf of the ladies of Shasta, to Col. West, of the Shasia Guards, Carr.

Adelaide, in carrying in the troops, at the very . moment my terms of capitulation were under consideration by the enemy, had grounded upon the bar, but 4 active and Néistous exertions of Commander Stellwagen, after some delay was got off. At the same time the Harriet Lane, in attempting to cross the bar, had grounded and remainded fast. This to me was a moment of the greatest anxiety. By these accidents a valuable ship of war and a transport steamer, with a large portion of my troops, . were entirely within the power of the enemy. I had demanded the strongest terms which he was considering. He a refuse, and, seeing our disadvantage, renew the action; but I determined to abate not a tittle of what I believed to be due to the dignity of the Government— not even to give an official title to the officer in command of the rebels. Besides, my tug was in the inlet, and at least I could carry on the engagement with my two rifled 6-pounders, well supplied with Sawyer’s shells. —— “Ox To Wasuinotoy.”’—Among the items . received by a late Pony, was one to the ef-. nopalarity of bis proclamation, and the dif .

Lincoln is only 26 miles from Nevada, and the cars will soon be running to that place. The work of grading the first seetion of the railroad from Folsom to Aubure has also been commenced, vad is now being pusbed forward rapidly. Overntayp MaiL.—A dispatch from Salt Lake, to the Union, dated Supt, 26th, states that the mail stage had arrived from the Hast, having neither mails nor passengers. The stage started from Atchison, Kansas, aud mast bave left about the L6tb, at which time a band of marauders had possession of St. Joseph. Secession Fi.aas,—Considerable excitement was created at Stoekteu on Sunday morning last, by the sight of three or four secession flags, which bad been raised during the night in different parts of the town: The treasonable emblems were token down by the citizens, and the stars and stripes run up io their places. Vorg or tux Strate.—A San Francisco dispatch, of yesterday, gives tbe total vote for Governar, as follows: Stanford, 55,431; OConness, 30,156; McConnell, 30,576. In this estimate the fraudulent vote at Big Springs, Mono county, is not included. PResentation,—A set of colors was presented in Shasta, Sept, 23d, by Miss Anna Sprague, in behalf of the ladies of Shasta, to Col. West, of the Shasia Guards, Carr.

At the same time the Harriet Lane, in attempting to cross the bar, had grounded and remainded fast. This to me was a moment of the greatest anxiety. By these accidents a valuable ship of war and a transport steamer, with a large portion of my troops, . were entirely within the power of the enemy. I had demanded the strongest terms which he was considering. He a refuse, and, seeing our disadvantage, renew the action; but I determined to abate not a tittle of what I believed to be due to the dignity of the Government— not even to give an official title to the officer in command of the rebels. Besides, my tug was in the inlet, and at least I could carry on the engagement with my two rifled 6-pounders, well supplied with Sawyer’s shells. —— “Ox To Wasuinotoy.”’—Among the items . received by a late Pony, was one to the ef-. nopalarity of bis proclamation, and the dif .

A young man, native of Kentucky, just escaped from the rebel army at Bull Run says . they have now 185,000 men at Manassas who . . are pretty well clothed and shoed and paid promptly. The Virginia troops are paid in the Virginia bank bills and the other troops in gold. According to his statements the troops are abundantly supplied with everything.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.—The Rebel Congress, . near the close of its session, passed a whereas and a resolution, declaring that unconstitution. al interference had prevented Missouri from seceding, and authorizing Jeff. Davis to use the military power of the Confederate States to aid in the furtherance of the plans of Claib Jackson and the defunct Legislature. They may at the next session, with no less presumption, assert that the defeat of McConnell for Governor of this State was unconstitutional, and offer their disinterested services to aid in placing that unfortunate individual in the Chair of .
