LITTLE, —————— SATURDAY EVENING, OCT. 27, 1860. ——— Horewie Murper at tHe Bay.—An at trocious murder was perpetrated last Tuesday, at the milk ranch of & man named Johnson, near the Lone Mountain Cemetery, at San Francisco, Mr. Jobason left his ranch for towa in the morning, bringing his sou, o lad of fifteen, into the city school. The son returned after school and found bis sister, aged thirteen, murdered, and the mother horribly mangled with an ax and unable to speak, but yet alive. Wm. Cooke, « hired man, was at first suspected, but his body was found the next morning, a few hundred yards from the house, bis skull having been clove in withan ax. The whole affair ia still involved in mystery; sevenal suspected persons have been arrested, but were discharge@ on giving an account of themselves, The murders could’ not have been perpetrated for the purpose of robbery, a8 nothing was taken from the premises excepta pair of boots belonging to Cooke. Costa Rica.—Late advices from Central America state that a revolution had broken out Io Costa Rica, General\Mora, the legitimate President of that republic, and who it will be remembered: was-deposed about a year ago, has retarned, andthe people were rising.ia bis favor, No fighting had taken place. Mora bad issued a proclamation calling upon the people to join his standard aud put down Montealegre, who had usurped the Presidency, Insurrection at PanamMa.,—By the steamer Washington, whieh arrived at San Francisco on Wednesday, from Panama, we have intelligence that an insurrection of the negroes had, broken out at Panama, whiah the authorities had, not been able to quell wp to the 2d fost., the day the steamer sailed, At the reqnest of the Intendente the British and American forces occupied the town— the British being in the town, and the Americans occupying the Railroad station. History or Catrrornia.—We are indebted to Edmund Randolph for. a neat pamph. lot copy ofbis address to the Bioneer Asso~ ciation, on the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the admission of California, The historical sketch of California is the ablest we have seen. ‘The. pamphlet was printediat the Ajta office, and contains two maps of this coast, one of the date of 17:40, the other of 1787, Onecon Magxers.—In the various towns of the Willigmette valley, prices of produce are quotedas-follows: Wheat, from 40, to 60 cents per bushel; oats, 25. cents; potatoes, 25 to 60 cents, Flour is selling at from $2 50 to $4.50 per barvel; butter, 12 to 25 cents per pound, eggs, 15 to 25, cents. per dozen. Detarep.—-We have delayed the issue of the present number of the Demoogar some hours beyond the usuaktime of publication, in order to give an accamat of, the political demonstration and barbecue of to-day. Tuayxsaivina.—Gov. Downey has ap« pointed Thursday, November 29th, to. be observed as a day of public thanksgiving throughout the State. {we population of San Joaquin county ip. about 2,400. po a A ns In bis late speech at Hamilton, Ohio, Judge Douglas gave a very clear exposition of the principles of the two sectional parties. The Republican party demand that Congress shall interfere to probibit slavery in the territories, wherever the people desire to have it; while on the contrary, the secesston party—tbe men who bolted at Charleston and Baltimore—insist that Congrees sball interfere to protect slavery wherever the people do not waot it. The Republicans only ask that Congress shall probibit slavery where the people want it, because they know that wherever the people are opposed to the institution they will probibit it themselves. On the other band, the Seceesionists desire that Congrress sball interfere in favor of slavery only where the people are opposed to it, for the reason that wherever they are in favor of the institution they will protect it themselves without any interference on the part of Congress, From this it appears that the Republicans under Lincoln, and the Secessionists under Breckinridge, agree in principle. They agree, first, that Congress shall dec de the question of slavery in the territories; second, that Congress shall decide it in every case against the wishes of the people; and third, in denouncing noaintervention as a humbug. Agreeing thus far, they differ only as to which way Congress shall decide the question—the northern Republicans claiming that it shall be decided in favor of the north, and the southern Secessionists insisting that it shall be decided in favor of the South. Neither of these parties bas any strength out of its own section; no northern State will ever consent that Congress shall force slavery upon an unwilling people, and no southern State will consent that Congress shald exclude slavery where the people want it. They bave no contest with each other at present, but the leaders of eaco are endeavoring to break down everything like a national party, and thas compe) all the union-loving voters of the country torange themselves under the one or the other of the sectional banners. There is but one escape from the evils of such sectional organizations, and that is by adhering to the good old doctrine agreed upon by Democrats and Whigs in 1852, of non-intervention by Congress with slavery in the. territories, Ferocious,—The Hon. Roger A. Prior, in a recent speech while-commenting on the reply of Judge Rouglas to the Secession question propounded to bim at Norfolk, wound up with the startling declaration, that ifa President of the United States should have the temerity to use force to prevent the secession of a Southern State, or States, from the Union, andeno effort from any other quarter should be pat forth to resist the exercise of Federal power, he, the Hon. Roger A., solitary and alone, would be the Brutus to plant a dagger in his heart. Yancey on Sxcession.—Wm. L. Yancey spoke at the Cooper Institate, New York, October 10th, to anitmmense gathering of people. While speaking, the question was put to him whether Liucoln’s election would be cause for the secession of the South, to which he answered that he believed in the right of secession, and if Lineolo should bring in Federal bayonets to force his irrepressible conflict, he would join his State to resist. Yancey evaded an answer to the same-question in a previous speech, Aunestep For Forgery.—A man named Henry Wilson, from Washington Territory, was arrested on Thursday, in San Francisco, for uttering forged U. S. Treasury notes amounting to $1,000. Wilson, it appears, obtained the notes from Sergeant Smith, of the Quartermaster’s Department in the Territory, and on presenting them for payunent was arrested. He is: still held in custody, and officers are in pursuit of Smith. I . Taw New Aumapen Cass.—Mr. Randolph concluded his argument in the New Almaden case, last Wednesday, and Mr Benjamin commeneed bis ch on Thursday. The arguments.of Mt Reachy and Randolph oc. oupiedififteen days;, there are. still four speeches to be made,and f€will probably be a . month befone the case is submitted to. the court,, crates? The political demonstrations of yesterday and today, at Grasse Valley, the Race Course, and Nevada, were the most imposing that ever came off in this county, and were a decided success. In accordance with the programme adopted by the Committee ef Arrangements, the Democracy assem. bled Friday evening on Mill street, in Grass . Valley, and formed in procession with torches, transparencesand banners, After march. . ing to Boston Ravine, and through the prin. cipal streets of the town, the procession halted in front of Cady’s livery stable, where the speakers’ stand had been errected. The torch-light procesession was half a mile long, formed in double file, and from a thousand to fifteen hundred people were present at the meeting. Mr. Byrne called the meeting to order, and on motion S, W. Boring was appointed Chairman. Gov. Downey was the first speaker called: out, and on taking the stand was enthusiastically cheered. He made a few plain sensible-remarks, spoke of the prospects in the State, and from information which he bad received, he was satisfied that Douglas would have a majority ia all but three or four counties. Gov. Downey was followed by C. M. Briggs and J. W. Denver, who were frequently applauded. We bave not the space to give a sketch of their speeches. At a late hour the meeting adjourned, to assemble again at the Race Course this morving. The people began to assemble at the Race Course, about ten o’clock this morning, coming from Nevada, Grass Valley, and other points. By twelve, a large multitude being on the ground, a meeting was organized, and speeches made by Gov. Downey, R. P. Hammond, and T. B. Bearden. The two latter gentleman spoke something over an hour each, aud were vociferously applaud@ed. Atthe-conclusion of Mr. Rearden’aspeech there were at least three theusand people present; it was, beyond question, the largest assemblage ever witnessed in Novada county. The meeting then adjourned to the table which was spread in the open air, and fairly groaning beneath the weight of the big ox, the fatted calves, sheep, etc. In the course of halfan hour the meat was all disposed of, bat a full wagon load of bread remained undévoured, The table was between three aud/four bandred feet in length, but was not more than half long enough to accommodate those who erowded around it, The people having satisfied their hunger, commenced dispersing, many going to Grass Valley, Rough & Ready, Little York and Bridgeport, but large numbers came to Nevada, to take part in the toreblight procession, and hear the speaking in the evening. The toreblight proceesion was a magnificent display. It was formed about six o’clock at the foot of Main and Broad sts., marched up Main and Commercial streets, down Broad, up Main to the Court House, anddown Pine to the corner of Broad street, where the speakers’ stand was erected under the Douglas and Jobnson flag. We do not know how many there were in the procession, but it stretched nearly a mile in length, and there were certainly over two thousand persons present when the meeting was organized. Mr. Jas. K. Byrne. of Grass Valley, was chosen President of the meeting, T. T. Davenport Secretary, with six Vice Presidents whose names we did not learn, Governor Downey first took the stand and spoke a few mioutes, but the crowd was so large that he could be heard by only a small portion of those present. The Governor was followed by Hon. Joseph P. Hege, who is speaking as we go to press, Lieuz. Mowry arrived on the last overland stage. He bas been instructed by the General Government to organize an expedition to run the boundary line between California and Utah Territory, Too Mucu ALKaLI.—A Catholic Mission at Fort Benton, Oregon, bas been abandoped on account of failure o&crops owing to ae tgou prevalence of alkali in the soil, _ Yoena Recrvirs.—A large number of Garibaldi’s troops are not:more than 22 or l4-years old. . Fire at OakLanp.—On the morning of the 24th inst., a fire broke out in a bakery at @akland, and before the flames could be subdued an entire block destroyed.

Nevapa Demoorat.—As “Uncle John” starts over in the morning, Lembrace a few leisure moments to drop you @ line. With regular California energy, all the towns of Washoe are progressing to important cities; . Virginia, Gold Hill and Silver City are being built up with good substantial build‘ings, Although there is-not the same degree of excitement, confidence. ie by no means shaken;:the producing the metal by practical process bas tended to give substantial jife to everything. I wish to impress upon Nevadans the im. portance of Wasboe, that they may exert . themselves to turn the tide of business via Nevada, All the natural advantages are in its favor, and it ouly wants the energy of its people to complete it. The amount of business to be dove next spring wil} awaken all.to this fact. As a mineral-bearing couotry,.Wasboe is a reality. {ts exact value, as compared with California, Iam not as yet able to form what I would eay is a correct opinion, As usual I keep statistics of all my working, und will soon be able to form some idea, Several mills are now being built, but as yet “Nevalla” takes the lead. As I look arovnd me, I see so many Nevadans that really it seems as if Nevada has moved to Washoe and not ourselves. The foothold of Nevada in this country is traly astonishing*from the number one would suppose they had the biggest sbare, This can be accounted for, I presume, from the fact that Nevada is close at hand, The weathef bas been rainy, snowy and cold for some days past, but now it is quite pleasant. Politics are not as engrossing here as on your side, yet we have more or less _political confabs. Silver city goes for Douglas. Hoping you will have a happy time on election day, I remain. Yours, Cosmos. Silver City, Oct., 22, 2860. ArtremPreD Roppery,—Just after breakfast yesterday morniog, as Mr. Tooms was driving along the La Porte road near the New York house, he saw in advance of him & wagon loaded with shakes, and on top of it two men straggling together. Presently the combatants fell to the earth. One snatchwas fired. Tbe party from whom the pistol was taken recovered it, and would probably have done serious work with it but for the near approach of Mr. Tooms, when be jump. ed off and ran away, leaving behind a new black bat. It appears that the driver of the foremost team, which belonged to Mr. Van had come near losing his life as described. He bad with him about one hundred dollars whieh the robber did not succeed in getting. While the teamster and footpad were strugling on the earth the team ran off, and on . being pursed subsequently ran the wagon against a rock and smashed one of the forewheels to pieces. The robber was a very young looking man, aud genteely dressed ia black.—[{Marysville Appeal, Oct, 24. Nicut or Horror.—The Milwaukee papers relate a whole column of instances . Wherein, in that city, on the fatal night when the Lady E!gin went dowp, citizens hand at a little after 2 o’clock, perambulated the whole city to see if the nature of his fears had not some present solution, and was still wnsatisfied. Others, controlled by these fearfal forebodimgs, sat wp the bai. ance of the night, or lay tossing-and sleep~ less in bed. In man some not even uaintances, on board the fated ship. To all, however, it is described as having been a night black with horrors. OTICK TO LIEN RS-—State of California, County of Nevada, in the District Court ofthe 14th Judicial District. R. C.

With regular California energy, all the towns of Washoe are progressing to important cities; . Virginia, Gold Hill and Silver City are being built up with good substantial build‘ings, Although there is-not the same degree of excitement, confidence. ie by no means shaken;:the producing the metal by practical process bas tended to give substantial jife to everything. I wish to impress upon Nevadans the im. portance of Wasboe, that they may exert . themselves to turn the tide of business via Nevada, All the natural advantages are in its favor, and it ouly wants the energy of its people to complete it. The amount of business to be dove next spring wil} awaken all.to this fact. As a mineral-bearing couotry,.Wasboe is a reality. {ts exact value, as compared with California, Iam not as yet able to form what I would eay is a correct opinion, As usual I keep statistics of all my working, und will soon be able to form some idea, Several mills are now being built, but as yet “Nevalla” takes the lead. As I look arovnd me, I see so many Nevadans that really it seems as if Nevada has moved to Washoe and not ourselves. The foothold of Nevada in this country is traly astonishing*from the number one would suppose they had the biggest sbare, This can be accounted for, I presume, from the fact that Nevada is close at hand, The weathef bas been rainy, snowy and cold for some days past, but now it is quite pleasant. Politics are not as engrossing here as on your side, yet we have more or less _political confabs. Silver city goes for Douglas. Hoping you will have a happy time on election day, I remain. Yours, Cosmos. Silver City, Oct., 22, 2860. ArtremPreD Roppery,—Just after breakfast yesterday morniog, as Mr. Tooms was driving along the La Porte road near the New York house, he saw in advance of him & wagon loaded with shakes, and on top of it two men straggling together. Presently the combatants fell to the earth. One snatchwas fired. Tbe party from whom the pistol was taken recovered it, and would probably have done serious work with it but for the near approach of Mr. Tooms, when be jump. ed off and ran away, leaving behind a new black bat. It appears that the driver of the foremost team, which belonged to Mr. Van had come near losing his life as described. He bad with him about one hundred dollars whieh the robber did not succeed in getting. While the teamster and footpad were strugling on the earth the team ran off, and on . being pursed subsequently ran the wagon against a rock and smashed one of the forewheels to pieces. The robber was a very young looking man, aud genteely dressed ia black.—[{Marysville Appeal, Oct, 24. Nicut or Horror.—The Milwaukee papers relate a whole column of instances . Wherein, in that city, on the fatal night when the Lady E!gin went dowp, citizens hand at a little after 2 o’clock, perambulated the whole city to see if the nature of his fears had not some present solution, and was still wnsatisfied. Others, controlled by these fearfal forebodimgs, sat wp the bai. ance of the night, or lay tossing-and sleep~ less in bed. In man some not even uaintances, on board the fated ship. To all, however, it is described as having been a night black with horrors. OTICK TO LIEN RS-—State of California, County of Nevada, in the District Court ofthe 14th Judicial District. R. C.
