The Sacramento Union, of Wednesday, however 4, “gontains a remarkably comprehensive s¥nopsie of its statements and arguments, furnished by its St. Lowis correspondent. For this synopsis we have not space at present, or we should gladly give it to our readers. ~ The message refers to the embarrassing cireumstances which surrounded the present national administration on its assuming the government on the 4th of March. The _ fanetions of the government were generally “suspended in thé seceding and seceded ‘tates. The public treasury had been robbed by men high in office under the preceding adminis-. tration. Northern arsenals had been stripped to farnish the seceding states with arms and miunitions of war, and the southern arsenals and forts had been seized and fortified. The regular army was scattered over a vast extent of territory, and the navy similarly séattared to all quarters of the globe, rehdering the immediate -concentration of either impossible. Under these circumstunces of almost complete powerlessness, the new administrstion was confronted by a bold and defiant rebellion of seven states. Taking advantage of this temporary powerlessness the rebellious states initiated hostiljties by the bombardment and captare of Fort Sumter: wher its garrison was in a starving condition and on the point of surrendering. By this act, the issue was forced, of an immediate dissolution or. blood. This igsue, the message contends, embraces in its conse-quences more than the United States. It embraces the entire civilized portion of the human race, by presenting the grand question, whether a, government by the people can or can not maintain its existence and integrity against domestic enemies. The freedom and happiness of civilized mankind are deeply concerned in having this question defermined in the affirmative. As the readiest means of settling this question, aud to demonstrate the fact that the government of “the United States could be sustained and perpetuated by the national will, the administration appealed to the loyalty of the people. The appeal of the government “met with an immediate and enthusiastic response, showing to the nation and the friends of free government, every where, that the American Union, though severely threatened, was in no danger of ultimate disruption. The doctrine of state rights—that: portion of it which insists upon the sovereignty of the several states—the message pronounces a fallacy, because as they only become states on their admission into the Union; they: could not bé sovereign previous to their admission, and could have no sovereignty to resume.— . The message argues the fallacy of state-sovereignty, under the plea of whith the seceded states claim the right of leaving the Un. Jon at pleasure, at great length, and shows _ the turpitude of secession, in the robbery of the national property by the recusant states. ‘The President refers the entire matter to Congress and leaves that body to decide upon the constitutionality, legality, and morality of the acts of his administration, since ite inauguration, as wellas upon what fur ther is to be done to produce peace and a reconstruction of the Union. Aceordingly, he recommends that there shall be no cessation of “warfare, no compromise, until the rébellion be effectually crashed and exterminated. Thies result; he suggests, »may be accomplished by the immediate employment of four h agand men and four hun. Congress, the people will continue to sustain rity they have ve already evinced with so much a ae : x -e @ printed at Osceola, St. Clair County, Misnumber of the Osage Valley Star, a paper: souri,.of the 6th of June; informs us that our late fellow citizen, John ¥. Crenshaw, Esq., is .captain' of a company of mounted riflemen, under the secession flag. The company was organized on the 3d of June, by . the election of Capt. Crenshaw and the other officers, and is officially known as the 2d gom-. pany.of State Guards, though the local name is the’ St. Clair County Guard.” Osceola is somewhat more than 20 miles from the western line of Missouri: and some 80 miles south-west of Boonville, where the late battle was fought. It is on, or nearly on, the line. of Gov. Jackson's retreat from the Boonville affair, in which, .we presume, Captain Crenshaw was engaged. The Captain is a brave and noble-héarted man, and many of his Nevada friends will regret to find him arrayed against the Union. PEACE PROPOSITIONS.—-The New York that Commissioners from Jeff Davis were in New York City, whdse business was to submit propositions of peace to the government : and, if failed in that, to exert. their tact in inducing the New York capitalists not to aid, by their funds, the government in its efforts to suppress secesmon. Eastern people, who are as well posted in southern maneuvers as the Tribune, pronounce the whule of this a figment of the imtigination. “That there may be southern. sympathizers in New York city, anxious for a cessation of hostilities and who would be pleased‘to see the capitalists shut down og the government, there is. not much ‘reason for doubt; but Jeff Davis would acarcely send his Commissioners to New ‘York to do business that can only be done in Washington. T. B. McF'arRLanp, Esq.— The Marysville Appeal, of yesterday, in its running notices of the Republican candidates for . Nevada county, this speaks of the candidate for Distriet. Judge: iid : “ MeFarland, candidate for District Judge, is an honorable and. capable. man, formerly District Attorney, and favorably known thoughout the county.” We notice this only for the purpose of correeting one error in it. Mr. McFarland never was District Attorney of this county. The Appeal is right in allelse itsays of him, <> “RUSHING THINGS.”—The Marysville .Appeal, of July 17th, says ‘we saw yesterday, a small bough from an apple-tree, laden with nearly ripe apples of a goodly size, said apples being a.second: crop of fruit from the same tree this setison. We don’t usually brag much, but if any of our neighbors can beat that they may bring on their papers for it at our District Fair next September.” SMUGGLING JEWELRY.—A man named Seelig, arrived at San Francisco, on the steamer Golden Age last Sunday, having about his person $10,000 worth of diamonds, and other costly stones, which have been officers. The pfficers had been proviously warned through a communication per Pony Express. Tae Caurcw MiLiranr.—The Worcester Spy says the Rev. Gilbert Cummings, pastor of the Unitarian Church at Westboro, Mass., who has been chosen commander of the company in that town, is the seventh ¢lergyman from that vicinity who has accepted a similar post of duty the present seagon. : 9% The ten additional Massachusetts Regiments which have been called for by the President will be in Virginia in less than forty days, all armed and equipped with every necessary for a campaign. Each regiment will have twenty-five wagons, instead of fif. teev, the usual number, and those wagons are tnade at the rate ‘of a hundred a week. ° MIKE BRANNIGAN.—According to. Wedneaday’s Union, the bail of the above named brute has been reduced from $11,000 to $4,000, which he'has given and been released from custedy.pony: news, at but 75,000 men. The federal scouts have ascertained this to be the exact number. « Hitherto it was supposed to be about. 160,000. j ALL STRAIGHT.—Tho cross charges of as. sault and battery in the Downey-Middleton John Middleton, were @ismissed in the PoKee Court of San Franeieco, on Tuesday, Ee Tribune recently threw out mysterious hints . . '. GP The réal strength of the secessionist . forces in Virginia is represented, in the last Hike, and thmks the people would like, to have the leading candidates on the Republican and Democratic tickets, address the same meetings, as was the fashion of Whigs and Democrats years ago. Sueh a plan certainly promotes fairness of discussion and the public amusement. The Bee is told that ‘Governor Downey will himself stump the Southern portion of the State for the Union Democratic ticket—that Coffroth wil! traverse the State, and Griffith teo,.and al host of others “too numerous to mention.” But however great. their numbers the Republicans can turn out full as many speakers. E. B. Crocker, of Sacramento, who is to be Stanford’s Secretary of State, and who is a’ good stumper, will; we hear, take the field at an early day, and keep it. until election.’ 00k eatin A Great MeoicinE MAN—The Toronto Leader tellg of a man’ who'died in that ¢ity, ‘. who was in the habit of consuming a pound of Epsom salts daily, for the last. ten years. The total quantity consumedby him wag upwards of a ton anda half! “He was subject to fita, and salts was the only remedy for them. Sime druggist lost a good customer. ee Don’t Want A KinG.-——Isaac Hayne has written an indignant denial of the letters to the London Times reporting that the people of South Carolina desired a monarch to rule over them, He calls on the shades of Rutledge, Pinckney, Gadsen, and Marion. ~ What does he want with them? If they should ‘re-appear, they would lash their degenerate sens With.a thousand scorpions.—Louisville Democrat. THe Dovetas Funp.—The Donglas Committee in Washington have appointed auxiliary committees for the several Union States. That for California consists of Joseph C.: McKibben, James A. McDougal, John W. Couness, Leonidas Haskell, John Nugent, James W Coffroth, Marshal O. Roberts of New York city was unanimousty elected Treasurer. <> Cot Emory.—This officer, who was silly enough to resign and whose restoration to the army has caused much dissatisfaction and perhaps justly, is entitled to some credit by way of offset to his resignation. When in command at the West, recently, by his enthe country more than a quarter of a million of Government. property, and, what is still more importrnt; brought back to Fort Leavenworth,undemoralized, eleven companies of splendid regular troops, two cannon, nmety wagons, six hundred mules, etc. [A General order ‘embracing regulations for the nurses at Washington, prohibits them from wearing hoops.

A GENTLEMAN.—The long-mooted question of ‘What is a gentleman 7” has at lost been settled, ut least in the latitude of Ken. tucky. In that State, according to the Lounger, of Harper's Weekly, a gentleman is—he who looks out of the window-whilg his guest helps himself te whisky ! FRE IN PLacer CountTy.On Sunday, July 14th, the public house known as Liberty Hotel, at: the junction of Yankee Jim’s and Mormon Bar turnpikes, iu Placer euunty, twelve miles from Auturn, was destroyed by fire. The loss is estimated at about $3,000 A CostLy Dircu.—Some enterprising — have projecteda ditch to supply the ono connty mines, whieh will be thirty miles in-longth and necessitate an otitlay of $200,000. It will bring the waters of Walkers river to Aurora, and be large enough to irrigate the adjacent country besides. floating timber from the mountains. ~ te A little four-year-old girl, while repeating the catechism at her mother’s kvee, replied, in answer to the question, “what did God create?” ‘The earth, the sun, the moon, the stars—and the stripes !”” £3” By the stoppage of the mails in the seceded states, the general government makes about $3,500,000 perannum.

Fyom the best information Brown has killed ia personal encounters sixteen men—ten in California, three in Texas and three in Nevada Territo” ry. Brown used to assert in conversation mense physical power and indomitable coolness gave him an advantage over . inost ‘men in an encounter; aud basing his belief on that fact, he frequently asserted that he could not-be killed: But like~all desperate characters, who rely entirely upon brute force, he discovered his mistake too late. One cir‘cumstapce will illustrate the impudence and hardihood of the man. In the “winter of 1859. he got into_a difficulty with aman nam. ed Woodruff, in a gambling saloon, when Brown stabbed him, causing almost instant death. After thé murdered man was taken ; from the room, Brown coiled bimself up on . the table and slept as soundly as though he had not just deprived a human being of his life. , ee cr ANTI COuLie AssociaTION.—We learn from the Mirror that. a secret society has been formed in San Francisco for the purpose of breaking up the Cvolie system. The rules of the order comp! members to dispense with all articles of Chinese: manufacture, and to use every expedient to abalish Coolie laber. Already the organization numbers about 2,000, and it is rapidly spreading in influence and membership. Lodges . will be established in different parts of the State a8 soon as arrangements can be made. A Bone for .Joun BULL.—Ruseell writes to the Lordon Times that thirty-five English subjects had been forced by violence into the rebel service at New Orleans, though afterwards released through the intercession of the British Consul. Bees aND Honey.—The bee buisness, which last year, and particularly ‘the year before, was all the rage, has not usurped much attention this season. The country is well stocked with these emblems of industry, but they are not producing the anticipated reward. The season has been fur more than ordinarily backward, and bees have not multiplied as was their wont; while honeymaking, save in some localities, has been rather at a discount.— Bee. iti THE Catholic festival, for church purposes, in San Francisco, was « paying concern, EF It is said thatall the Presidents of the United States, except Gen.
