The facts are like this: the Anti-Lecempton State Convention, of June last, was beld in this city ove week in advance of the Convention, Judge Terry was a candidate before the latter for 4 re-nomination, and was defeated. On the last night of the sitting of that body, all the prominent defeated candidates were called to the stand, the Judge among them. He made a short and spirited address, iu which he said, among otber things, after asking who was opposed to the party to which he belonged : “They [the Anti-Lecomptonites] are the followers of one man, the personal chattels of a ¢ individual, whom they are ashamed of, They belong heart, soul, body and breeches, to David C. Broderick. They are yet ashamed to acknowledge their master, and are calling themselves, aye, forsooth, Do 3 Democrats. hen it is known, well known to them as to us, that the gallant Senator from Illinois, whose voice has always been heard in the advoeacy of Democratic principles, who now is not disunited from the Democratic party, has no affiliation with them, no feeling in common with them. Perhaps, Mr. President and gentlemen, I am mistaken in nying their right to claim cg as their leader, erhaps they do sail under the of Douglas, but . it is the banner of the black Douglas, whose name is Frederick, not Stephen.” Broderick bad read this, and while at break. fast one moruing, at the Luternational Hotel, San Francisco, entered into conversation with those near him on the subject, aud stated that he bad ouce expressed the opinion that “Judge Terry was the oaly upright man upon the Supreme Beveb, but be believed he would now buve to take that back.’’ Mr, Perley, a friend of Terry, and once bis law partuer, took offense at this, aad replied sharply, Some further remarks were made, and Broderick in the beat of the moment expressed bis sorrow that the Vigilance Commitiee did not bang Terry when it had him in custody. The result was that Perley challenged Broderick, and the latter refused tu accept on several grounds, and also stated that be would vot accept a challenge from any person until after the ection, On el ctiou day, Terry in company with Perley, left this city for San Franciseo, the Judge bLaving first res goed his office, It was kuown on the boat going dowa that Terry intended to chal lenge Broderick, he Judge. we believe. balted at Benicia, went to Stockton for his physician —Dr, Aylett —wnd left overland for San Francisco, Terry sent Broderick a peremptory challenge. Broderick, through bis friends, desired to know the particular offers: he bad given, or the language ‘. be bad used, which caused the challenge—ard whether it had avy thing todo with bis dificalty with Perky. The a ewer was, we hear, that it bud no direct reference to the Perley matter, but to the Jauguage used, about that time, by Brodvrick, in which he expreesed bis regret that the Vigilance Committee bad not huog the Judge. To this Brodeviek’s friends replied that while be spoke thus io a moment of excitement, such were vot hie sentiments or the feelings of his heart; for be did not wish to have that body bang any man, and that he was willing to ac. knowledge this publ cly; but, as it was calkd out by what Judge Terry bad said of Broderick at the Lecompton State Convention, iu Benton’s chureh, Terry should also withdraw what he had said of Broderick upoa that occasion. This Terry peremptorily refused to do; bence, there was no course left but to fight. Crvunty vo Inpians.—Robt. Phillips lately, committed au assault upon a equaw, at Trinidad, aud . pow ber resisting, stabbed ber eo séverely that her life was dispaired of. He was subsequently arrested, and held in custody to await the possible fatal result of bis viotim’s wound. He has siuce been admitted to bail. The above is the simplest record of an set of brutality, that is, alus, ocither too inhuman or reckless, to be infrequent. We have every reason to believe that simtlar grievances have occurred that have never beea brought to legal investigation, And we had oot long einge chronicled one, where through technicality of the law, the offender went “uowhipt of justice.” If the affair ended with the punishmeut of the crime, well and good. But unfortunately, it does not, For every wanton and unprovoked attack upon these miserable beings whom our law, and common bumanity declares we should protect, a wicked retaliation is sure to follow. When the first transgrestor escapes the law, this retribution falls upon some unoffending man. Thus doves injustice beget injustice and erime beget crime. Indian outrages have been committed that might be traced directly to the perpetration of some such barbarity as that reeorded above. We cannot see that retaliation vate . euch circumstances is a bit more reprehensible than the provocative uet, And it is a painful reflection that the provocation is usually the work of the white civiligor,--Northern Californin, . } . Irrigation in Cativornia.—Horace Greeley in hie address at the Marysville District Pair, said: “Among the deficiencies of agrioultural adap. tation in Califoruia was the apparent ignoraoe of the people of the fact that the land may be . tion day, was taken Sa nn RRS aR eR half The so of ate ease Mar _ at Poy is 130 000; os f a Sue Recta date oe ec xa col i ri been a private “eg The . yield of wheat, of which we have an: account this season, is from the farm of Mr. RY.

The ¥ has not been heard from since, and it is feared that he met with foul play on the road, A correspondent, writing from Vacaville, Solano county, says: “On Thursday, Sept. 8th, J. S, Pearson, son of Charles Pearson, and Miss Jeanette Foster, daughter of Wim. Foster, left Vacaville, 6r within its Meee for quarters unknown, with the intention of uniting in the bonds of matrimony on the first oceasion, but nothing has been heard of them since their departure.” Wm, E. Cullum, who lately atrived in Carson Valley from Lindsey's Station, seventy-five miles above the sink of the Humboldt, re t the stock of the emigrants is dying very fast. He pre. dicts more than the usual amount of suffering, as the stock of the travelers is now almost exhausted. The first lot of quicksilver from the New Idrie mines arrived at San Juan, Monterey county, on the 13th. There were eighty flasks, containing in all 7,200 pounds, Considerable money has been expended to make the road from San mines passable for all kinds of vehicles, uan to the Mrs. Wright, one of the survivors of the late massacre on the plains, is at Placerville, still unable to sit up, on account of her wounds. She says that her husband persisted, up to the moment of his death that the murderers spoke good English; she, however, is satisfied that the party who drogued her from the wagon were really Indians, The people of Los Angeles county, at the late election, refused to vote the sum of ,000. asa Court House loan. That was the second time the vote of the people was taken on that subject, and it has been twice repudiated. In the city of Los Angy" the vote stood: For the loan, 82; Against it, At Forest Hill last week it was rumored that some six persons had been murdered on their way to the Washoe diggings, The Courier says; Whether the murder was committed by Indians or white men ia not stated. The le are said to be residents of Dutch Flat and Illinvistown. The announcement of Broderick’s death at Carson Valley, on the 13th inst., was received with deep regret by all parties, The flags on the liberty poles were lowered at half mast, and the principal buildings at Carson City and Genoa were deges in mourning. During the past week there has passed through Genoa, Carson Valley, en route for California, and aia age Aina Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Aransas, 300 men, 124 women, 262 children, 60 ons, 80 horses, 63 mules, and 1,718 head of cattle, An affray occured in the town of Napa on Monday, Sept, 12th, in which Wm, Axtell, proprietor of the Napa Hotel, was cut twice in the lett side with a large bowie knife, by Edward McGeary, It is thought that Axtell, though seriously wo recover, On the night of September 8th, a fight opouyred in a dance house at Forest Hill, Placer county, tween a man called “Big Joe” and John Farrell, in which the latter received a number of severe thongh not dangerous stabs.

Beware of teaching your trees to be wholly unable to do without large quantities of water. It ruins them, and whole orchards go to premature degay.

A gene tleman writing upon the subject of the quicks silver mines in California, bas no doubt thas 2,000 tons of metal might be annually extracted from the New Almaden mine. This would be 500 tons more than the annual aggregate yield of the mines in other countries, When we re-~ collect that the famous Almaden mine in Spain is known to have been worked two thousand . eix hundred years, we must all ugree that the quicksilver mines of California bid fair to be inexhaustible.

[From the Sacramento Bee, Sept. 12.) The facts are like this: the Anti-Lecempton State Convention, of June last, was beld in this city ove week in advance of the Convention, Judge Terry was a candidate before the latter for 4 re-nomination, and was defeated. On the last night of the sitting of that body, all the prominent defeated candidates were called to the stand, the Judge among them. He made a short and spirited address, iu which he said, among otber things, after asking who was opposed to the party to which he belonged : “They [the Anti-Lecomptonites] are the followers of one man, the personal chattels of a ¢ individual, whom they are ashamed of, They belong heart, soul, body and breeches, to David C. Broderick. They are yet ashamed to acknowledge their master, and are calling themselves, aye, forsooth, Do 3 Democrats. hen it is known, well known to them as to us, that the gallant Senator from Illinois, whose voice has always been heard in the advoeacy of Democratic principles, who now is not disunited from the Democratic party, has no affiliation with them, no feeling in common with them. Perhaps, Mr. President and gentlemen, I am mistaken in nying their right to claim cg as their leader, erhaps they do sail under the of Douglas, but . it is the banner of the black Douglas, whose name is Frederick, not Stephen.” Broderick bad read this, and while at break. fast one moruing, at the Luternational Hotel, San Francisco, entered into conversation with those near him on the subject, aud stated that he bad ouce expressed the opinion that “Judge Terry was the oaly upright man upon the Supreme Beveb, but be believed he would now buve to take that back.’’ Mr, Perley, a friend of Terry, and once bis law partuer, took offense at this, aad replied sharply, Some further remarks were made, and Broderick in the beat of the moment expressed bis sorrow that the Vigilance Commitiee did not bang Terry when it had him in custody. The result was that Perley challenged Broderick, and the latter refused tu accept on several grounds, and also stated that be would vot accept a challenge from any person until after the ection, On el ctiou day, Terry in company with Perley, left this city for San Franciseo, the Judge bLaving first res goed his office, It was kuown on the boat going dowa that Terry intended to chal lenge Broderick, he Judge. we believe. balted at Benicia, went to Stockton for his physician —Dr, Aylett —wnd left overland for San Francisco, Terry sent Broderick a peremptory challenge. Broderick, through bis friends, desired to know the particular offers: he bad given, or the language ‘. be bad used, which caused the challenge—ard whether it had avy thing todo with bis dificalty with Perky. The a ewer was, we hear, that it bud no direct reference to the Perley matter, but to the Jauguage used, about that time, by Brodvrick, in which he expreesed bis regret that the Vigilance Committee bad not huog the Judge. To this Brodeviek’s friends replied that while be spoke thus io a moment of excitement, such were vot hie sentiments or the feelings of his heart; for be did not wish to have that body bang any man, and that he was willing to ac. knowledge this publ cly; but, as it was calkd out by what Judge Terry bad said of Broderick at the Lecompton State Convention, iu Benton’s chureh, Terry should also withdraw what he had said of Broderick upoa that occasion. This Terry peremptorily refused to do; bence, there was no course left but to fight. Crvunty vo Inpians.—Robt. Phillips lately, committed au assault upon a equaw, at Trinidad, aud . pow ber resisting, stabbed ber eo séverely that her life was dispaired of. He was subsequently arrested, and held in custody to await the possible fatal result of bis viotim’s wound. He has siuce been admitted to bail. The above is the simplest record of an set of brutality, that is, alus, ocither too inhuman or reckless, to be infrequent. We have every reason to believe that simtlar grievances have occurred that have never beea brought to legal investigation, And we had oot long einge chronicled one, where through technicality of the law, the offender went “uowhipt of justice.” If the affair ended with the punishmeut of the crime, well and good. But unfortunately, it does not, For every wanton and unprovoked attack upon these miserable beings whom our law, and common bumanity declares we should protect, a wicked retaliation is sure to follow. When the first transgrestor escapes the law, this retribution falls upon some unoffending man. Thus doves injustice beget injustice and erime beget crime. Indian outrages have been committed that might be traced directly to the perpetration of some such barbarity as that reeorded above. We cannot see that retaliation vate . euch circumstances is a bit more reprehensible than the provocative uet, And it is a painful reflection that the provocation is usually the work of the white civiligor,--Northern Californin, . } .

The le are said to be residents of Dutch Flat and Illinvistown. The announcement of Broderick’s death at Carson Valley, on the 13th inst., was received with deep regret by all parties, The flags on the liberty poles were lowered at half mast, and the principal buildings at Carson City and Genoa were deges in mourning.

Beware of teaching your trees to be wholly unable to do without large quantities of water. It ruins them, and whole orchards go to premature degay.
