Z The brief epitome of eastern wews, in our issue of this morning, and which we published-yesterday afternoon in an extra, brings matters down to the St. Louis date of the 10th of this month. Though no importaut movements had’taken place, up’ to the moment when the news was. dispatched from St. Louis, yet it is evident that important military movements were on the eve of ac~ complishment. . The next pony, due on Saturday, will, most ¢értainly, bring the intelligence of a deapérate battle at Harper's Ferry, unless the secessionists evacuate that position before the government forces are read to. attack them. = ' An important item, and one to be much regretted, is that Tennessee has voted in favor of secession. Thisuntoward event will tend to hasten the “expeditigh of an. mménee government force down the line of the Mississippi. Gallant Old Kentucky still remains loyal to the Union, and it was fervently hoped, by all true patriots, that Tennessee would imitate such a glorious example. ‘ Another item, of gratifying significance to all Union men,is the statement that England, Franee, and Austria are more favorable than at first to the cause of the Federal Government. Much of this good feeling, no doubt, is to be attributed to the newly accredited ministers-to the European Courts.

Lirprrt’s Ruciment.—A telegram in yesterduy’s Marysville papers contains the gratifying intelligence that Col.

This intelligence will be peculiarly acceptable to. the gallant fellows who have enrolled themselves in the company now beipg raised by H. A. Greene, and who are to lect their officers on the 29th of the present month, All of them enlisted with the hope of being called to the seat of war. The ranks will now be filled with a rush. The work of enlistment has been much retarded, in Nevada, Grass Valley, North San Juan, and other localities in the county, by the lack of authority on the part of Mr. Green to give a positive assuranee that the recruits should be sent to the east.

If the God, whom the Parson professes to worship, entertains no more clemency fer secessionists than he, they will all be damned, and doubly damned, toa moral certainty. The mere idea of a secessionist seems to drive him frantie, and he writes about them-and their works as though he wielded a pen of adamant dipped in aqua fortis.

Of course, the Rev. Joseph Cross will be wnch edified by the labors of Brother Brownlow, who denounces bim as a hellbera heretic and sarcastically ranks him beneath a jackass. Nevertheless, the Knoxville Parson is not a man to be laughed at. He upholds the Union cause in Tennessee with a bullying courage not commonly expected ‘in men of the pulptt.

Nearly a third of the branches, in many localities, were knecked offand destroyed. The destruction of a third of the grape-crop of Calaveras county is no small loss to the farmers and gardeners in that region. AN ENGAGING YOUNG MAN.—The last story of the course of true love is to the effect that two ‘young ladies of Fairhaven recently fell deeply in love with a gentleman who visited them very frequently. Being acquainted with each other’s passion, and withal strony friends, they romantically resolved to ‘‘ draw lots” to decide which should have him. The fotunate one lost no time in making known to him the result of the drawing, and he then informed her that he was already. engaged to a third lady. ’ t# 8,000 Texans, completely organized ae cavalry, infantry and artillery, have offered their services to President Davis, in addition to the quotaof men to be furnished in compliance with his requisition.

May the day be very, distant, though, when such an event shall take place. DEATH OF SENATOR DouGLAS.—On Baturday evening last, in San Francisco, all the flags were at half mast, on account of the death of Senator Donglas, and great regret expressed ‘by all parties. In all the cities from which we have heard, the national colors are suspended at half mast, and some of the late Douglas newspapers appear with their columns dressed in mourning Sap CasuaLtTy.—A benutiful child, aged seven years, danghter of George Coffee, boiler inspector, fell into a vat of boiling beer in the Mission street brewery, San Franéisco, on.Saturday last: A young man named Thomas Kennedy’ attempted to rescue the child and be also fell in. John MeCube, the cooper of the establishment, was severely scalded in his efforts to get them out. The child died almost immediately. Kennedy was taken to St. Mary’s Hospital. He will probably die. REPUBLICAN STA're CONVENTION.—This body met and organized yesterday, in Sacramento. TheS nFreneisco ergan gives a list of eundidates for the principal State offices, from-which it appears there are six aspirants for the Governorship, five for Judge of the Supreme Court, the same number forClerk of the Supreme Court, seven for Stete Printer, and eleven for Congress, SPEAKING OUr.— Lue Sau Krancisco Herald, which was not long since an apologist for treason and the friend of traitors, bas taken a firm stand for the Union. of the coming Fourth ft says : “Since we last year met to celebrate the day, politicians, licentious in their liberty, have incited the people to insurrection, and we have to mourn the existence of a civil war. It will be the painful duty of our citizene, while they recount victories woo over foreign foes, to sustain our patriot armies in contending agninst enemies it home. However sad the condition of our affiire, however invidious thia duty may be felt to be, it must be fiithtfully performed. The citizens of California, without distinction of party, and whatseever the lind of their nativity, will, on the Fourth of July, renew their fealty to the Government and declare their unanimous wall that at every bazard the laws shall be faithfully executed, and the Constitution be maint»ined forever inviolate.” > Speaking PARSON beowNLOW.—Parson Brownlow pitches into a Secessionist in hig locality in the following livety style : Tn my last issue, I found it necessary to denounce Sperry, of the Register, as a liar, a contemptible puke, and the toel of seoundrels.
