rs MONDAN, JULY Suk, 1861, LATEST EASTERN NEWS. ‘evening the Nevada Democrat iesued an extra, Being a telegraphic rescript.of that published by theSacramento Union. The latest items of intelligence are to the date of the 26th of June and are notof particular importance. ‘< ra On the 23d ult, Samuel Larribone, 4 mercheat of Baltimore, was beld to bail’ in the eum of $10,000, on the charge of placing ‘obstructions on the railroad track on the 19th of April, the day when the Massachusetts ‘troops were mobbed in Baltimore. This shows 8 disposition, oo the part jf the au‘thorities of Maryland, to punish treason in _ A resolution has been introduced into the nance Committee te inquire into the produe by the commowealth to citizens of such in substaining the war of invasion, to be held asa trust fund for the indempification ‘On the 24th it was the opioion #t Washington that Gen. Beauregard intended to ad‘eral lines. ‘Many traitorous spies reside in ‘Washington who keep the secessionists fully posted as to all the movements of the government. Vanderbilt, on behalf of the Atlantic Steamship Company has offered the goverm exit the following steamers, all in prime condition; Ocean Queen, Ariel, the iron ship Champion, and the light draught Daniel Webster. The price to. be determined by the Board of Commissioners. The Union men of Tennessee have been promised.sid and arms, by the government, te defend themselves against the secessionists. ‘Tennessee id included in the district com. mianded by Gen. Anderson, the heroic defender of Fort Sumter. : A naval expedition of much magnitude will soon start out te operate on the coast of ‘Texas, consisting of war vessels and. transports carrying munitions of war and men. On the 26th anextraordinary meeting of the Cabinet, attended by Gen. Scott and many ofthe géneral and field officers of the army, was held at Washington, at which Scott submitted his programme of the war. What the result of the meeting was is-not known to the reporters of the press. The Prussian consul at Charleston, who acted with the rebele, has been withdrawn by his government.—The foreign legations are suspected of being the media through which the Jeff. Davis government corresponds ,with.Europe. The federal government will not permit this —Senator Johnson and Representative Ethridge, ef Tennessee, are at Washington. Johneon was fired at by some secessionists, while passing Cumberland Gap, but was untouched. He says the Union men in East Tennessee will imitate the action jof Western Virginia, and cut loose from the rebellious authority and fight for the Umen. Protessor Lowe took observations of the secessionist forces, from his balloon, elevated over Arlington Hights, on the 25th. It is thought these balloon obser-vations will be found very valuable. ‘In Kentucky arrangements have been made that the federal forces shall not enter that state unless it be invaded by a secessionist force too strong to be driven out by the Kentuckians. The Union men of the stath have been supplied with arms by the federal government. Gov. Harris, of Tennessee, has given assurances that his troops ill not invade Kentucky as long as. the federal forces do not. It seems that the Unionists of Kentucky, when fully.armed, are amply sufficient to protect the state from both internal and external secessionists.—L. W. Burnett, of the Ist district—a secessionist— has been elected. According to a published letter in the Charleston Mercury, from a correspondent in Gen. Beauregard’s army, the Virginiang around them are hostile to the secessionists. It is dangerous to leave. the camp alone.— Gentlemen come into camp daily, who fear theirown slaves: will murder them. The lower class of whites are incitmg slaves to such a degree that civil war is on the point of . inauguration. Intheir van the people are hostilé, in their rear they are fearful. The navy of thé U.S. is ‘te be doubled. — Secretary Wells intended to recommend to will promptly sanction the course of the federal administration, and acqiesce in the recom; mendations of the President. In Missouri, on the 24th of June, Union cause was triumphantly in the ascendant. The signal defeat.of Gov. Jackson and bis secessionist army at Bonville had lowered + the spirite of the rebele.and given life and. courage to the Unionists. Gov. Jackson, according to rumor, had taken shelter at Union City, Obion county, T: tern county of that state, and separated from the lower portion of Mississippi river, where he was making arrangements with the officers -in command of rebe] troops at that camp, to meve troops into Missoun to join the rebel PM . tor <er = fitting out of addifional == . war vessels. The Presiden =. correspond. It is supposed that Congress . right. seee ,the north-wesjects. tion of all the secessionist furces in Virginia forces of that State. It is alee ramored that an attack will be made upon Bird’s Puvint The Paris Moniteur formally announces that the Emperor is resolved to maintain strict neutrality in American effairs, and publishes « decree specifying measures of neutrality to be observed by French subThe foregoing items, somewhat conden. sed, are the only ones of importance in the Democret’s extra, From them we areled to infer that, unless a demonstration be made, by Gen. Beauregard, from hie position at Manassas Gap, against the federal lines, extending along the right hank of the Potomac, there will notbe a general battle between the opposing forces until after zome decisive action shali have been had by Congress. Notwith standing the astute prognostications of some of the Washington corresponden‘s of the New York press, it is very evident that Gen. Scott does not. contemplate any other immediate effect than a retrograde concentraon Richmond, where he will ‘overwhelm them and cause their unconditional surrendet, without much spilling of bload. This will be infinitily better, for the federal government, for the secessionists, and for the general interest of all humanity, thana san guinary victory on the battle field, in which multitudes on both sides must perish, and which can not fail of adding to the already too inteuse sectional ill teeling prevailing between north and south. If Congress, now in extra session, act promptly in sustaining the administration, the war will not extend beyond the coming winter. But, unfortunately, there are so many eloquent patriots in Congress, who would rather the Union should be shattered into fragments than that they should be deprived of the glorieus privilege of boring their fellow members with flatulent speeches, that there is much reason to fear that Congress will be a stumbling block, rather than an aid, to the administration. In a critical time, like this, the country. expects ‘action, not frothy declamation, and it would be an excellent plan to treat each prosy Congressman as an enemy to the nation, and arrest and hang him forhigh treason. Itis pessible, however, that Congrees may behave better than we anticipate, and show some of that promptitude and energy so emphatically exhibited by the people and the national executive. Nous verrons, “il THe WIVEs or THE PRESIENTS.—The following is from the Union's correspondence: If Mrs. Lincoln, as has been reported, is a semi-Secessionist, and has (as is true) brothers in the rebel army, the account may be balanced by the following, regarding Mrs. Jefferson Davis. The Milwaukee Press says: : We know that Mrs. Davis, the wife of the rebel chief, sympathizes with the anti-slavery sentiment of the North, whatever may be her views. of the present political diffieulties. — We have heard her express the strongest pasar ie J sentiments in the presence of the most decided advocates of slavery. Upon the occasion-of tho pas: of the KausasNebraska Bill, an ol teoky was congratulating Mrs: Davis, in our presence, upon the success of the measure, to which she replied, in substance: “Ifit has the effect to extend slavery, I am sorry for it. If the women of the South could be consulted in this matter, slavery weuld be & ily abolished. As for.myself, I would rather do the menial services of my family than have the responsibility and care of slaves. SENSELESS.— The San Francisco Call saysa son of Capt. Gardner, U. S.N., in command of Mare Island, made a ninny of himself on Monday, July 1st, by talking secession doctrines to a stage full of females from Vallejo to Benicia. The. peeple of. Mare Island are much dissatisfied with Capt. Gardner, the father of the aforsaid ninny, and believe him to be a secessionist. 2 rs AND THE Boors.—Sheridan he begun early in lfe,soom after leaving Hartul, and wanted néw pair of boots, but could not afford to pay for them. Shortly before he left he called on two boot makers, and ordered of each a pair of boots promising payment on delivery. He fixed the morning of his departure for the tradesmen to send in on the boots, and complained that for the red Crispin to take it back, streteb it, and bring it back ved soon after, and this time it was the boot for the left foot which pinched. Same complaint; same order given; each had taken away only the pinching boot, and left the other behind. ‘The same afternoon Sheridan left in his new boots for tewn, and, when the two boot makers called the next day, each with a boot in bis hand, we can imagine their disgust ot finding bow neatly they had been duped. Tne Was Spimirin New Orizans.— The. editor ot the Knights’ Landing News, -has oeen permitted to peruse a letter from the Hon. John F. Monroe, Mayor of the city of New Orleans, dated May 13th, to his brother at Knight's Landing, from which the following extract is taken : “ We have no news of interest save that of war. Gur city is full of soldiers and munitions of war Everybody—old and young, are full of fight. The greatest trouble we experience is to keep too many from joining our army. . In fact, this week we had fo refuse a number of volunteer companies, from the interior of the State.” Srrone Hanpep.—‘The United States forces in Missouri consist of 10,200 men— 1,500 of whom are at Jefferson City; 3,200 at Rolia; 1,500 at St. Joseph and on the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad; 1,000 on the North Missouri Railroad ; and 1,000 at Bird’s Point, opposite Cairo. The traitor, Governor Jackson,bas fled for safety to Tennessee, and_ rebellion fis crushed, it is believed, for the present.’ Tue Sun Gove OuT.—There are now more spots on the sun than have been seen for many years; some of these are visible through a smoked glase to the naked eye. Several stare—some of them of great brilliancy which, from their ascertained distance, must have been as large as our. sun—have totally disappeared from the sky; and the question has bedn raised by astronomers whether the light and heat of the sun are gradually fading away. accompanied by the destruction of all the plants and animals on the earth, it is rather an interesting question. The sun’s light and heat are diminished by the dark spots, at the present time, above one per cent. niinirelanielglilsilbiletate tar At Atalanta, Georgia,a few weeks ago there stood before the altar the Rev. Jsasc Rosser, a pioneer Methodist preacher, now in the eightieth year of his age, and Miss Sarah Childs, aged ninety years, who were united. Az THE PRESS APPRECIATED.—We observe the Republicans have set x most creditable example, which other Conventions to be held might follow with a great deal of advantage und profit—they have placed the names of three editors un the ticket.—Spirit Times. ARRESTED. — During the week a man named John Hennage was arrested at American Hill by Under Sheriff Brown. It appears that Hennage, some time ago, had shot a man in the arm, somewhere in Nevada County, and the wound had ultimately proved fatal. The prisoner was taken to eved and delivered to the authorities of that county. —Sierra Democrat. The shooting mentioned above took place at Remington Hill, but did not result fatally. The man’s arm was amputated, however. Union Democratic ConvenTION.— When last heard from, this body was got ting along very nieely, with Coffoth for President. Itis expected thatits platform willbe intensely Unionistic, but nobody is able to guess the nominees. The Convention did not fairly get to work until Saturday,and probably may not adjourn to-day.— Major Bidwell’s stock for governor is said’ to be at par. 2 _ Ee Jobn R.
