ear brings netiges up to the
_ (St. Louis date-of March 26th. There is noth_ Sing par cularly startling in the last advices.
Fort Sumter, it was supposed, would be evae. uated on the 27th of March, though the Gov‘ernnient appeared to be inno hurry aboatit,
‘ag it was stated that.Major Anderson had pro‘visions for three weeks. The Government
‘Jeaves the manner of the evacuation to the . ”
~~ Major’s own discretion. ‘The last accounts .
from him represent him as making his arrangements very quietly and methodically.
__ Astrong southern force—5,000 men—in. “vests Fort Pickens, and a vigorous attack up‘onitis momently expected. It is not known
_@#hat Course the Government will take in regard to st, whether it will be reinforced: or
‘evacuated. In the meantime fresh troops,
~ from Mississippi and Alabama,are constantly
‘gwelling the ranks of the besiegers. Requisitions have been made, by President Davis,
_on-several-of the eonfederated states, for-quotas of troops for an unavowed purpose.—
Some suppose he intends marching an army
on Washington City. Should he do so,the
civil war, so much dreaded by many politicians, will beirrepressibly initiated. —
have applied for federal appointments under
“President Lincoln. “One of them, at least,
_ Cyrus _W. Lane, applied for and has been ap-.
pointed Judge of the Northern and Southern
Districts of Alabama. It is\difficult to understand the motive of Judge Lane, in thus
apparently braving the secession sentiment
ofhis state. He must feel that there is a
* Union party ‘in Alabama, strong enough to
‘sustain his pretensions. If that is the case
‘at this early day, it cannot be very
long before the Union party will be dominant
in Alabama as well as some others of .the seweeded states. The southern ballot box will
yet prove the great and only efficient recon‘structor of the American Union.
The withdrawal of the U.§. troops from
‘the frontiers of Texas has encouraged the
Lipans and other Indian tribes to make descents upon the white settlements. They
are plundering and murdering the inhabitants
without mercy. Gov. Houston, who has
been legislated out of the Gubernatorial
Chair because of his unyielding opposition to
‘secession, has applied to President Lincoln
_ » for the aid of the U. 8. troops to defend the
' ‘tate from ‘its Indian enemies. Houston is
_ Taboring to create a revulsion in the popular
mind of Texas againat the secession movement
He ‘and Mr. Hamilton delivered speeches at
Austin in ‘which they boldly denounced the
Southern Confederacy and its constitution.
There appears to be a strong spirit of ses
‘cession in Richmond, Virginia. ‘The Union‘ist. members of the State Convention are fre‘quently insulted and reviled in the streets by
‘the populace. The Unionists, however, are
‘still in a majority in the Convention. A feeling of mutualdislike ‘s fast growing: up be» tween Eastern and Western Virginia.
Secretary Chase apprehends no difficulty in
the disposition of the $8,000,000 loan. Every dollar will be taken at rates closely apProaching par. ~~
Itis reported that France and Great Britain are each sending a strong naval force into
the waters of the United States; for the pur“pose, it is supposed, of protecting Mexico .
against the suspected designs of the confederated Southerners. Spain, also, is sending a
feet into the Gulf of Mexico, but not in con-_ cert with Franee and England. In the British Heuseof Com-uons Mr. Gregory moved
‘that the government should recognize the
Southern Confederacy.
In Europe there is nothing transpiring of
‘importance. Messina, the last stronghold of

Nort Carorina.—The recent election
in North Carolina resulted more auspiciously than the most sanguine friends of the
Union hoped. “The majority gave their}

“STATE AGRICULTURAL SocreTY:—In the }
Assembly, on Tuesday, an animated discus000 to the State Agricultural Society to be
applied to ‘the permanent improvement of
the stock. grounds, presented by the city of
Sacramento tothe State for the use of the
Society. The bill, which eventually passed
to an engrossment by a vute of 31 to 23, was .
fought at every step of its progress by the
friends of the district societies. They contended that’ the district societies were, in
benefit to.the state than thegstate Society,
although they had been carefully excluded
from any share of the: State’s favors. The
State Society is allowed $5,000 annually
from the State-Treasury; while not a dollar
has been allowed _te any one of the district
societies. It is a good thing to have this
that, although the State Seeiety seems ina
fair way of getting allit wants out of the
State, the district societies will yet come in
for a reasonable share of the State’s favors.
MARYSVILLE AND VALLEJO RAILROAD.
Yesterday’s Appeal has an editorial from
which itappears that the people of Solano
county are beginning to entertain serious apprehensions that the managers ‘of this work
have come to a dead lock, and that it. will
never be completed. The county of Solano
subscribed $200,000 to the stock of the
road and has paid $120,000. Although our
county of Nevada is not a stockholder in the
road, a great many of our people, on the
northern side of tha county, feel a great interest in the success of the enterprise. Can
the Appeal find out and tell its readers what
has been the success of Mr. Haskin, the contractor, in Europe, and when he may be expected to resume operations on the road. 7

SECTARIAN SCHOULS.—The Union states
that another numerously signed petition in
favor of the passage of the bill for a division
of the school moneys called for by the Catholies, was presented in the Assembly on Tuesday. It purports to. be signed by two thousand citizens of the lower country, chiefly
native Californians. When this measure
comes up a lively contest.is anticipated. It
is asserted, on good authority, that the friends
of the bill have secured, through political
promises and threats, an active and by no
meaus despicable party in the Legislature,
who will urge its passage by every means in
their power. Whatever may be the state of
the question within the legislative arena, it is
very certain that on the outside a numerous
and powerful coalition has been arranged.
bearing directly on the passage of the Catholic Apportionment Bill.
ES California's great want is population,
say several of our exchanges recently and all
the time. That’sso. Let us populate Appeal.
Well, why don’t you populate? A lazy.

WONDERFUL CuREs.—Mr. D. F. Potter,
of Monson, Massachusetts, who has been deaf
from birth, his malady being supposed hereditary, was recently induced to place himself
under the care of Dr. Lighthill, and he now
hears perfectly. Eneouraged by this success,
his father, Bartholomew Potter, an old gentleman, eighty-three years of age, who had
been deaf for forty yearg followed his son’s
example, and he now hears as well as any
one.

A. H. STeruens.—Vice President Stephens, of the Southern Confederacy, was
received at Atlanta,a short time age, and a
speech was made at him. In his retort, he
said: “ The changes in our Constitutien from
the old fedexal Constitution were made with
a view to conform to our social institutions
and afford a greater protection to our slave
property, The question ‘now is, ‘Shall we
be allowed to form our government in peace,
or shall we be forced into a war?’ We desire peace. He fully believed we should
have peace. The Black Republican power
will back down. Fort Sumter will be surrendered in ten days, and the border States
will be forced eventually, frém interest, principle and honor, to unite their-destinies with
the South. Although he was @f opinion that
peace would prevail, yet he would have us
prepare for war. He advised us to arm and
organize, to be ready to meet the foe if war
was forced upon us, and by thus being prepared for any emergency, we-could best secure the blessings of peace.”

Oregon and Washington Territory through
the entire Snake Indian country, during the
ensuing year. Tne military post on Boise
river will not be built as was first contewplated, but every means will be furnished
which are necessary to protect the emigration against surprise and massacre. The
$50,000 lately appropriated for this purpose
according to the Times, will be judiciously
expended, Itis tebe hoped, and expected,
that Government will extend its
