Badlam, Jr., is our authrized agent in Sacramento City. : NEVADA, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 7, 1857. The Ocean Telegraph. The most interesting item of intelligence received by the last steamer from the east, is the narrative of the attempt to lay down the telegraph cable across the Atlantic. The squadron appointid for this work, left Valencia harbor on the evening of August 7th, and after laying out 335 geographical miles of the cable, on the morning of the 11th, it parted. The U. 8. steam Niagara, which carried the cable, was at the time going at the rate of four knots, and in consequence of the great depth of water— some 2000 fathoms—it was necessary to put on a retarding weight of thirty hundred pounds to prevent the cable from running out too rapidly. During the temporary abscence of Capt. Hudson, the men who had charge ef the brake attached to the machine for paying it out, either through ignorance or carelessness, neglected to let off the weight as the ship rose on the waves, and the strain on the cable becameso great that it was broken. The attempt to unite the Old and New World by a telegraphic wire is perhaps the grandest experiment ever undertaken. The whove civilized world was interested in the success of the project, and the failure of the first attempt has been received with profound regret. The project, however, has not been abandoned, although it is probable it will now be deferred until another year. The experience which has been gained by this first attempt will not be neglected at another time, and the entire practicability of laying the wire has been demonstrated beyond a doubt. Ifthe cable can be lain fora distance of 335 miles, it oan be lain down 1600 miles. The obstacles which were supposed to be the most sorious had already been met and overcome. A sudden declivity of 1500 fathoms in the depth of water had been passed without the least difficulty, and the cable had been successfully paid out in rough weather. Subsequent to the accident experiments were made to further test the practicability of the undertaking. The two ends of the cable on board the Niagara and Agamemnon were joined in mid ocean and the splice let down to the bottom in soundings of 2000 fathoms, during a heavy sea, and it was ascertained that the action of the wire was materially improved instead of being impaired by being sunk in deep water, Since the practicability of depositing an ocean cable has been satisfactorily demonstrated, the completion of the undertaking may be regarded as only a question of time. Other trials may fail, but the ath tien ant a SE ET NE AR ARENAS The President on Kansas Affairs. Professor Silliman, and forty-two others, mostly clergymen, receutly addressed a memorial to President Buchanan, on Kansas affairs, These clerical politicians and freedom shriekers learn with grief that the President sauctions the act of Gov. Walker, in using the military force of the country to execute the laws of Kansas, and represent that by so doing he is violating his oath to support the constitution and “levying war against.a portion of the United States,”’ by employing arms to support a code of enactments which never had the sanction of the people of the territory. Mr. Buchanan, in consequenco of the distinguished source whence the memorial proceeds, departs from his usual custom ard gives it an answer. In his answer he briefly reviews the condition of affairs in Kansas when he entered upon the duties of the Pi€sidential office, and convicts the clerieal gentlemen either of wilful falsehood, or of being so blinded by political . prejudices as to be incapable of understanding the plainest and most palpable historical facts. The letter concludes as follows: I bave entire confidence in Governor Walker, that the troops will not be employed, except to resist actual aggression or in the execution of the laws; and this not until the power of the civil magistrate shall prove unavailing. Following the wise example of Mr. Madison towards the Hartford Convention, illegal and dangerous combinations such as that of the Toka Convention will not be disturbed unless hey shall attempt to perform some act which will bring them into actual collision with the constitution and the laws. In that event they shall be resisted and put down by the whole . ower of the government, In Ee orming this vuty I shall have the ig ion of my own concience, and, as I humbly trust, of my God. . I thank you for the assurance that you will . “not refrain from the dot a that Almighty . God will make my administration an example . Se LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

Financial Panie in New York, About the first of September a number of heavy failures occurred in New York, which created quite a panic among {the business cir. cles in the Hastern States. The first and heaviest failure was that of the Ohio Life and Trust Company, with liabilities stated to be as high as $7,000,000. This failure was followed by that of six or eight banks in different sections, and a number of heavy Wall street brokers had also gone under. In addition to the failures there has been a great decline in all the leading railroad stocks, throughout the country, some of them going “down to a mere nominal figure. The panic in New York had in a measure subsided when the steamer left on the 5th, but the money market was tight, and the rates of discount ranging from 12 to 30 per cent. on the street. The last bank returns of New York city, exhibited a great contraction in the line of discounts, the specie reserve had considerably decreased, and overa million of deposits had been drawn. Speculations in railroad stocks, and unproductive western lands, have been carried on extensively in the East for some years past, and fears were entertained that the bubble wasabout to burst. It is not improbable that the next steamer may bring intelligence of a general financial revulsion throughout the Atlantic States. Remova or 1H Mormons.—A correspondent of the State Journal, writing from Carson Valley, says that the Mormon train left Genoa, on the 26th of September, and took up their line of march for Salt Lake. The company numbered 985 souls, 350 men, the balance women and children, They had 710 head of stock and 148 wagons, With one or two exceptions, the Mormons paid up their debts and fulfilled their contracts; where differences arose, the adjustment of accounts was left toarbitrators. Their leaving so suddenly has been sensibly felt by the traders in the Valley; but it is calculated that their places will shortly be filled by industrious emigrants who are settling there to make their future homes, The reasons which have induced . xen from a set of claims on Brandy Flat near . 3. B. Layton, and J. 8, Wall, the newly elected the Mormons to thus suddenly leave their . homes, are not fully known. Jerrua R. Marcu.—The Red Bluff Beacon, of Wednesday last, has an article reviewing the case of Jeptha R. March now under sentence of death in Snasta county, and whose execution has been postponed until next Januarv. The Beacon is in favor of his unconditional pardon. The reasons given are, that he was intexicated when he committed the murder; that he has lain in jail three years with the sentence of death hanging over him, and that during that time he has suffered enough to atone for the crime, The Shasta papers are in favor of his execution. Tae Mint Marrers.—On Friday last, Wm. Bein, the Mint Embezzler, was sentenced to six years imprisonment in the penitentiary, and to pay a fine of $2,000. The same day, J. M. Eckfeldt, chief coiner, and H. T. Graves, his clerk, were indicted by the grand jury for perjury on Bein’s trial. Tue Quickest Timze.—The steamer Vanderbuilt has made the rua from New York to Liverpool in nine days and one hour, being the quickest time on record. An Exrensive Bonp,—The official bond of Dr. Manlove, Sheriff of Sacramento, was signed by sixty persons, who justified that they were worth $416,000. . doubt, munition to the Indians, and urging them to rob the emigrants, Mr, A. P. Hawes recently arrived at Placerville and gave the Argus a\ lengthy acceunt of the Indian difficulties on the Plains, He says that he has been trading on the Tumboldt for four summers past, and attributes much of the Indian troubles to the injudicious acts of a portion of the emigrants,— He alee assures the editor of the Argus that he has not traded arms and ammunition to the Indians as had been reported, Te gives the following account of the circumstances attending the death of Tuley, which is altogether different from that formerly published by us, and which we publish as a matter of justice to all, On their way down the Humboldt, they stopat the trading post of Messrs, Waldon & . diately taken off, and as they got up Brown left utt, where a man by the name of James Tuley, who Mr, Hawes had in his employ, became intoxicated and acted so badly that the next morning Mr. H. told him that he could not go with him any further, and, accordingly, paid him in full for his services up to that time.— Soon after, Tuley started down the river and went to Mr, Blackford’s trading post, where he remained intoxicated for two days, as Mr. H. afterwards learned, While in that state, he told some of the immigrants, that he had sold guns and ammunition to the Indians, and swore if they did not like ithe would ‘put some of their lights out,’’ Tn consequence of this threat, the immigrants at the trading post became excited and arrested him, Upon trying him there was not evidence enough to convict him, and he was acquitted; but a number of the party, who were intoxicated, believing that what he had stated was true, as he started off commenced shooting at him, at which he began to run and they continued Bring. As he came around the point of a hill, a Californian shot him twice, and he died instantly, Mr. Hawes says that Tuley, while in his employ, never traded to the amount of one cent with the Indians, thermore, that he did not allow guns and ammunitions to be traded to them at any rate.

The trial will doubtless be concluded to-day. Eye Govorp Ovr.—Two men named Brown and Scotch Jimmy got into a fight on Sunday evening last, at Liberty Hill, in Little York . township.

Speculations in flour has taken place in V alparasio in consequeuce of news received from Australia. ~ The news from the seat of war in Peru is most unsatisfactory ; nothing has really been done either towards putting dowa the revolution or subverting the government. President Castilla, with his forces outside Arequipa, and General Vieanco, with his followers inside the walls, seem so buisily engaged watching cach other that they have no time to fight. Mr. Sullivan, H. B. M.’s Charge’d Affaire, died from the effect of the wound inflicted on him by the assasin on the 11th ult., as recorded previously. The funeral took place ou the 15th, No clue has as yet been reccived to the perpetrators of the crime, though a large reward has. been offered for such information as will lesd to their discovery and apprehension. A correspondent of the Star, writing from the city af Puira, says: At 7 o’clock on the morning of the 20th the most severe shock of an earthquake ever remembered was felt here, which bas done damage to the amount of five hundred thousand dollars. . The shock lasted about » minute and forty-five seconds, and everyhouse in town has suffered more or less. The police have had one hundred and twenty-two houses taken down that were in a dangerous state. A number of the churches were completely destroyed. The river of Puira, which had been dry, suddenly rose; in other places the ground opeved, and jets ef dark colored water were ejected. There is no record of any similar phenomena having taken place, At Paita the effects of the earthquake were less severely felt. Reworep Seizure o” THE ISLAND oF Formosa.— The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press gives a professedly authoritative explanation of the rumor received a few days since from our China correspondent, that Captain Simms, of the United States Marine Corps, had been sent to take formal possession of the . It seems from this state. Island of Formosa. ment, he has gone thither to inquire into the circumstances of the alledged ill-treatment, by . the authorities of that Island, of the officers and . crew of two American vessels that were some time since wrecked in that vicinity; and that he . was to remain.at Formosa until the matter could be arranged, for the purpose of rendering “legitimate a prior American foothold, in case our Government should look to future reprisals and oceupancy.’’ It seems from this, that the statement of our correspondent was substantially correct, and that our Government is at least looking forward to the seizure of that island as a possible contingency. We shall probably hear more of this matter by the next mail from China.—New York Times. A CoxstirvtionaL, Ancumentr.—Hon. Oliver H. Smith, of Indianopolls, Indiana, a retired practitioner and jurist, and a long time since member of the House and afterwards U. S. Senator, is enlivening his old age by giving occasional accounts of his early experiance both as a frontiersman and a legislator. His description of himself in the latter capacity is as follows. “T had been at Connersville about eighteen months when, to my surprise, I saw my name announced as a candidate for the Legislature. Nothing was then further from my thoughts than to enter the field of politics; my ambition was . to make myself a good lawyer’ I was elected, however, and the next winter found me at Corydon—a representative, It so happened that it was the greenest Legistature ever convened in the State. The raw material was not so defective as the experience of the members. This accounts for the fact that the speaker, General Washington Johnson, announced my name as chairman of the committee on the judiciary. On the third day of the session we went into joint convention to count the vote for Governor. William Hendricks was elected. The secretary had opened the envelopes, and the counting had progressed till the county of Decator was called. This return was not sealed and direeted as the constitution required. The bodies retired to their respective chambers to discuss the important question. Mr. Bassett, Gen. Stapp, . Col. Scott, Col. James, Mr. Dumont and Dennis Pennington had spoken, when there seemed to be a pause. All eyes were turned to me, as the chairman of the judiciary committee, supposing, of course, that I knew all about it. The house was filled with a distinguished audience, from all parts of the State, and several from Kentucky. I arose, Jt was my first effort ina legislative capacity, and much was expected by the audience, ‘Mr. Speaker,’ said ‘4 These were the only words I could afterwards remember of my speech; I grew blind and down I sauk in my chair, almost unconcious, when Major Henry P. Thornton, who was our clerk, sprang from his desk, ran to where I was seated and whispered in my ear—‘My dear sir, you must have studied your speach at home, you have made a powerful constitutional argument.” Suasta Propgerty.—The Shasta Republican gives the total value of taxable property in that county as $1,986,864.

Badlam, Jr., is our authrized agent in Sacramento City. : NEVADA, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 7, 1857. The Ocean Telegraph. The most interesting item of intelligence received by the last steamer from the east, is the narrative of the attempt to lay down the telegraph cable across the Atlantic. The squadron appointid for this work, left Valencia harbor on the evening of August 7th, and after laying out 335 geographical miles of the cable, on the morning of the 11th, it parted. The U. 8. steam Niagara, which carried the cable, was at the time going at the rate of four knots, and in consequence of the great depth of water— some 2000 fathoms—it was necessary to put on a retarding weight of thirty hundred pounds to prevent the cable from running out too rapidly. During the temporary abscence of Capt. Hudson, the men who had charge ef the brake attached to the machine for paying it out, either through ignorance or carelessness, neglected to let off the weight as the ship rose on the waves, and the strain on the cable becameso great that it was broken. The attempt to unite the Old and New World by a telegraphic wire is perhaps the grandest experiment ever undertaken. The whove civilized world was interested in the success of the project, and the failure of the first attempt has been received with profound regret. The project, however, has not been abandoned, although it is probable it will now be deferred until another year. The experience which has been gained by this first attempt will not be neglected at another time, and the entire practicability of laying the wire has been demonstrated beyond a doubt. Ifthe cable can be lain fora distance of 335 miles, it oan be lain down 1600 miles. The obstacles which were supposed to be the most sorious had already been met and overcome. A sudden declivity of 1500 fathoms in the depth of water had been passed without the least difficulty, and the cable had been successfully paid out in rough weather. Subsequent to the accident experiments were made to further test the practicability of the undertaking. The two ends of the cable on board the Niagara and Agamemnon were joined in mid ocean and the splice let down to the bottom in soundings of 2000 fathoms, during a heavy sea, and it was ascertained that the action of the wire was materially improved instead of being impaired by being sunk in deep water, Since the practicability of depositing an ocean cable has been satisfactorily demonstrated, the completion of the undertaking may be regarded as only a question of time. Other trials may fail, but the ath tien ant a SE ET NE AR ARENAS The President on Kansas Affairs. Professor Silliman, and forty-two others, mostly clergymen, receutly addressed a memorial to President Buchanan, on Kansas affairs, These clerical politicians and freedom shriekers learn with grief that the President sauctions the act of Gov. Walker, in using the military force of the country to execute the laws of Kansas, and represent that by so doing he is violating his oath to support the constitution and “levying war against.a portion of the United States,”’ by employing arms to support a code of enactments which never had the sanction of the people of the territory. Mr. Buchanan, in consequenco of the distinguished source whence the memorial proceeds, departs from his usual custom ard gives it an answer. In his answer he briefly reviews the condition of affairs in Kansas when he entered upon the duties of the Pi€sidential office, and convicts the clerieal gentlemen either of wilful falsehood, or of being so blinded by political . prejudices as to be incapable of understanding the plainest and most palpable historical facts. The letter concludes as follows: I bave entire confidence in Governor Walker, that the troops will not be employed, except to resist actual aggression or in the execution of the laws; and this not until the power of the civil magistrate shall prove unavailing. Following the wise example of Mr. Madison towards the Hartford Convention, illegal and dangerous combinations such as that of the Toka Convention will not be disturbed unless hey shall attempt to perform some act which will bring them into actual collision with the constitution and the laws. In that event they shall be resisted and put down by the whole . ower of the government, In Ee orming this vuty I shall have the ig ion of my own concience, and, as I humbly trust, of my God. . I thank you for the assurance that you will . “not refrain from the dot a that Almighty . God will make my administration an example . Se LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

Financial Panie in New York, About the first of September a number of heavy failures occurred in New York, which created quite a panic among {the business cir. cles in the Hastern States. The first and heaviest failure was that of the Ohio Life and Trust Company, with liabilities stated to be as high as $7,000,000. This failure was followed by that of six or eight banks in different sections, and a number of heavy Wall street brokers had also gone under. In addition to the failures there has been a great decline in all the leading railroad stocks, throughout the country, some of them going “down to a mere nominal figure. The panic in New York had in a measure subsided when the steamer left on the 5th, but the money market was tight, and the rates of discount ranging from 12 to 30 per cent. on the street. The last bank returns of New York city, exhibited a great contraction in the line of discounts, the specie reserve had considerably decreased, and overa million of deposits had been drawn. Speculations in railroad stocks, and unproductive western lands, have been carried on extensively in the East for some years past, and fears were entertained that the bubble wasabout to burst. It is not improbable that the next steamer may bring intelligence of a general financial revulsion throughout the Atlantic States. Remova or 1H Mormons.—A correspondent of the State Journal, writing from Carson Valley, says that the Mormon train left Genoa, on the 26th of September, and took up their line of march for Salt Lake. The company numbered 985 souls, 350 men, the balance women and children, They had 710 head of stock and 148 wagons, With one or two exceptions, the Mormons paid up their debts and fulfilled their contracts; where differences arose, the adjustment of accounts was left toarbitrators. Their leaving so suddenly has been sensibly felt by the traders in the Valley; but it is calculated that their places will shortly be filled by industrious emigrants who are settling there to make their future homes, The reasons which have induced . xen from a set of claims on Brandy Flat near . 3. B. Layton, and J. 8, Wall, the newly elected the Mormons to thus suddenly leave their . homes, are not fully known. Jerrua R. Marcu.—The Red Bluff Beacon, of Wednesday last, has an article reviewing the case of Jeptha R. March now under sentence of death in Snasta county, and whose execution has been postponed until next Januarv. The Beacon is in favor of his unconditional pardon. The reasons given are, that he was intexicated when he committed the murder; that he has lain in jail three years with the sentence of death hanging over him, and that during that time he has suffered enough to atone for the crime, The Shasta papers are in favor of his execution. Tae Mint Marrers.—On Friday last, Wm. Bein, the Mint Embezzler, was sentenced to six years imprisonment in the penitentiary, and to pay a fine of $2,000. The same day, J. M. Eckfeldt, chief coiner, and H. T. Graves, his clerk, were indicted by the grand jury for perjury on Bein’s trial. Tue Quickest Timze.—The steamer Vanderbuilt has made the rua from New York to Liverpool in nine days and one hour, being the quickest time on record.

P. Hawes recently arrived at Placerville and gave the Argus a\ lengthy acceunt of the Indian difficulties on the Plains, He says that he has been trading on the Tumboldt for four summers past, and attributes much of the Indian troubles to the injudicious acts of a portion of the emigrants,— He alee assures the editor of the Argus that he has not traded arms and ammunition to the Indians as had been reported, Te gives the following account of the circumstances attending the death of Tuley, which is altogether different from that formerly published by us, and which we publish as a matter of justice to all, On their way down the Humboldt, they stopat the trading post of Messrs, Waldon & . diately taken off, and as they got up Brown left utt, where a man by the name of James Tuley, who Mr, Hawes had in his employ, became intoxicated and acted so badly that the next morning Mr. H. told him that he could not go with him any further, and, accordingly, paid him in full for his services up to that time.— Soon after, Tuley started down the river and went to Mr, Blackford’s trading post, where he remained intoxicated for two days, as Mr. H. afterwards learned, While in that state, he told some of the immigrants, that he had sold guns and ammunition to the Indians, and swore if they did not like ithe would ‘put some of their lights out,’’ Tn consequence of this threat, the immigrants at the trading post became excited and arrested him, Upon trying him there was not evidence enough to convict him, and he was acquitted; but a number of the party, who were intoxicated, believing that what he had stated was true, as he started off commenced shooting at him, at which he began to run and they continued Bring. As he came around the point of a hill, a Californian shot him twice, and he died instantly, Mr. Hawes says that Tuley, while in his employ, never traded to the amount of one cent with the Indians, thermore, that he did not allow guns and ammunitions to be traded to them at any rate.

The trial will doubtless be concluded to-day. Eye Govorp Ovr.—Two men named Brown and Scotch Jimmy got into a fight on Sunday evening last, at Liberty Hill, in Little York . township. They clinched and fell upon the ground, and after rolling and tumbling awhile, Brown sung out “enough.”’ Jimmy was immeone of his eyes on the ground, it having been . gouged out in the scuffle.

An agreement was made, by which the whites are to join with the Indians within one week, and commence tw work, which will be well done if arms and ammunition can be had. An express has reached here for powder and lead, to be prepared for any emergency. Winnemaker, son of the Pah Utah chief, came into Genoa, Oetober Ist, with twenty-five braves, to have a talk with his white brothers. He made alengthy ach, the purport of which was, that the Waos bad been killing and robbing his peers, as well as the whites, He promised, f guns and ammunition were furnished, his warriors would be ready to take the field against the Washos in seven sleeps.

President Castilla, with his forces outside Arequipa, and General Vieanco, with his followers inside the walls, seem so buisily engaged watching cach other that they have no time to fight. Mr. Sullivan, H. B. M.’s Charge’d Affaire, died from the effect of the wound inflicted on him by the assasin on the 11th ult., as recorded previously. The funeral took place ou the 15th, No clue has as yet been reccived to the perpetrators of the crime, though a large reward has. been offered for such information as will lesd to their discovery and apprehension. A correspondent of the Star, writing from the city af Puira, says: At 7 o’clock on the morning of the 20th the most severe shock of an earthquake ever remembered was felt here, which bas done damage to the amount of five hundred thousand dollars. . The shock lasted about » minute and forty-five seconds, and everyhouse in town has suffered more or less. The police have had one hundred and twenty-two houses taken down that were in a dangerous state. A number of the churches were completely destroyed. The river of Puira, which had been dry, suddenly rose; in other places the ground opeved, and jets ef dark colored water were ejected. There is no record of any similar phenomena having taken place, At Paita the effects of the earthquake were less severely felt. Reworep Seizure o” THE ISLAND oF Formosa.— The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press gives a professedly authoritative explanation of the rumor received a few days since from our China correspondent, that Captain Simms, of the United States Marine Corps, had been sent to take formal possession of the . It seems from this state. Island of Formosa. ment, he has gone thither to inquire into the circumstances of the alledged ill-treatment, by . the authorities of that Island, of the officers and . crew of two American vessels that were some time since wrecked in that vicinity; and that he . was to remain.at Formosa until the matter could be arranged, for the purpose of rendering “legitimate a prior American foothold, in case our Government should look to future reprisals and oceupancy.’’ It seems from this, that the statement of our correspondent was substantially correct, and that our Government is at least looking forward to the seizure of that island as a possible contingency. We shall probably hear more of this matter by the next mail from China.—New York Times. A CoxstirvtionaL, Ancumentr.—Hon. Oliver H. Smith, of Indianopolls, Indiana, a retired practitioner and jurist, and a long time since member of the House and afterwards U. S. Senator, is enlivening his old age by giving occasional accounts of his early experiance both as a frontiersman and a legislator. His description of himself in the latter capacity is as follows. “T had been at Connersville about eighteen months when, to my surprise, I saw my name announced as a candidate for the Legislature. Nothing was then further from my thoughts than to enter the field of politics; my ambition was . to make myself a good lawyer’ I was elected, however, and the next winter found me at Corydon—a representative, It so happened that it was the greenest Legistature ever convened in the State. The raw material was not so defective as the experience of the members. This accounts for the fact that the speaker, General Washington Johnson, announced my name as chairman of the committee on the judiciary. On the third day of the session we went into joint convention to count the vote for Governor. William Hendricks was elected. The secretary had opened the envelopes, and the counting had progressed till the county of Decator was called. This return was not sealed and direeted as the constitution required. The bodies retired to their respective chambers to discuss the important question. Mr. Bassett, Gen. Stapp, . Col. Scott, Col. James, Mr. Dumont and Dennis Pennington had spoken, when there seemed to be a pause. All eyes were turned to me, as the chairman of the judiciary committee, supposing, of course, that I knew all about it. The house was filled with a distinguished audience, from all parts of the State, and several from Kentucky. I arose, Jt was my first effort ina legislative capacity, and much was expected by the audience, ‘Mr. Speaker,’ said ‘4 These were the only words I could afterwards remember of my speech; I grew blind and down I sauk in my chair, almost unconcious, when Major Henry P. Thornton, who was our clerk, sprang from his desk, ran to where I was seated and whispered in my ear—‘My dear sir, you must have studied your speach at home, you have made a powerful constitutional argument.” Suasta Propgerty.—The Shasta Republican gives the total value of taxable property in that county as $1,986,864.
