Dexver’s Letrer.—The following is an extract from the letter of Geo, Denver, written to bis brother, and published in this Stute by secession papers as an electioneerin# document: From present appearances we are to be as tax ridden a people as the aubjecie of Britain. If we cdodeed in getting out of our present difficulties indeed, with as much freedom as is enjoyed by English subjects, we may deem ourdived happy. On every side disasters stare us in the face—a most formidable rebellion, an Executive usurpation of power, a venal and subservient Congress, a pecuniary ruin among the people, and great danger of the free Government given to us by our fathers, being turned Thia letter was written soon after the Bull Run disaster, and it is not at all strange that the volanteers in this State dislike to serve ander the author. The only wonder ie, that a maa who could write the foregoing would aceept of a military appointment from the Government, St, Parrick’s Brorueruoop.—An organi zation of the above name, is thus explained by Mooney's Express : The object of St. Patrick’s Brotherhood, is to unite Irishmen in one purpose and undee one name, having the same by laws, vame objects, aud same days of meeting all over the earth, The purpose is to throw off the manacles which England bas throwa over them; the means, timely and general preparation for the firet * opportunity,” which may come moch sooner than many expect. Any three Irishmen in any part of Catifornia can begin the organization in their own neighborhood, report themselves to the Secretaries here, when further instractions will be given, The voluntary assessment may be whatsoever sum each can readily space. Scrcipe.—A man named Perry Wilson living in the foot-bills of the Coast Rauge, Colusa county, worth $20,900, out of debt and much estagmed, committed suicide recently by shooting himself through the chest from one side to the other, and when found he was lying with his bands folded over his breast, bis face bearing a placid expression, He left a note, upon which a whetstone was laid to prevent it from blowing away, saying: Blame no one for this, I did it myself.’ No reason can be assigned for the rash act, Avpurn Raitnoap Irox,—J. P. Robinson, E-q., the Superintendent of the Sacramento Valley Railroad, recently received and tended as far as the Humboldt, The Inguirer . conveyed upen the ground five hundred and fifty tons of railroadiron for the Folsom and Auburn railroad. About ten miles of this new road has been nicely graded aad is now ready to receive the rails. Fatat Accivent.—John A. Penseim, ma; . ny years aresidentof Butte county, received a fatal injury while mining on the West branch of Feather River, from the effects of which he died on the Lith inst, Risk tn Lanp.—The Stockton Independeat speaks of the sale of a piece of land hear that city for $50 per acre, which could . ayp you no: have been eold ¢ ot meen, welve mouths ago for .

His parents were John and Sarah Sturges, and when kidnapped, he had three brothers and one sister living, namely, William, John, Thomas and, Mary.

The entire expenses of the Revo-utionary War were stated in a report of Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of the Treasury, in 1790, to be $135,000,000. The debt which was left for posterity to pay was $75,000,000, The population was . then estimated at three millions; as we have now upwards of thirty millions, a debt of $750,000,000 would be in the same proportion. But the wealth and productive resources of the country have increased vastly beyond the ratio of population increase. Therefore, a debt of a thousand millions upon the country now would not be so onerous as was the seventy-five millions at the close of the Revolution, Tue inhabitants on the wiles of North Caroport had been by their trade with the North, are thoroughly sick of the war. Feeling that secession had been precipitated upon the State against the wishes of her people, they are eager for the overthrow of the spurious government. The suffering of the poor and the demoralization of the currency add to the feelings of discontent. Union meetings have been held, at which influential citizens attended, and it has been agreed to offer no resistance to the Federal troops.

He wintered at Port Foulk, near Alexandria, and with dogs and sleds reached latitude 81 degrees 35 minutes, May 18th, this year.

If we cdodeed in getting out of our present difficulties indeed, with as much freedom as is enjoyed by English subjects, we may deem ourdived happy. On every side disasters stare us in the face—a most formidable rebellion, an Executive usurpation of power, a venal and subservient Congress, a pecuniary ruin among the people, and great danger of the free Government given to us by our fathers, being turned Thia letter was written soon after the Bull Run disaster, and it is not at all strange that the volanteers in this State dislike to serve ander the author. The only wonder ie, that a maa who could write the foregoing would aceept of a military appointment from the Government, St, Parrick’s Brorueruoop.—An organi zation of the above name, is thus explained by Mooney's Express : The object of St. Patrick’s Brotherhood, is to unite Irishmen in one purpose and undee one name, having the same by laws, vame objects, aud same days of meeting all over the earth, The purpose is to throw off the manacles which England bas throwa over them; the means, timely and general preparation for the firet * opportunity,” which may come moch sooner than many expect.

The entire expenses of the Revo-utionary War were stated in a report of Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of the Treasury, in 1790, to be $135,000,000. The debt which was left for posterity to pay was $75,000,000, The population was . then estimated at three millions; as we have now upwards of thirty millions, a debt of $750,000,000 would be in the same proportion. But the wealth and productive resources of the country have increased vastly beyond the ratio of population increase. Therefore, a debt of a thousand millions upon the country now would not be so onerous as was the seventy-five millions at the close of the Revolution, Tue inhabitants on the wiles of North Caroport had been by their trade with the North, are thoroughly sick of the war. Feeling that secession had been precipitated upon the State against the wishes of her people, they are eager for the overthrow of the spurious government.

Union meetings have been held, at which influential citizens attended, and it has been agreed to offer no resistance to the Federal troops.
