eis mee re OO WEDNESDAY, JUNE 26th, 1861. — CURRENT EVENTS. The public mind of California ia so wrapt up inthe civil war, of whieh Virginia for the present is the battle ground, that it is somewhat wonderful that.it. gives to party poli+e tics as much attention as it does. Somehow or other, the political leaders of California seldom fail of reusing the many-headed monster, the people, into action, when an important election is about to come off. The movements of Gen. Seott.and Jeff Davis, as detailed by the pony, are of vast interest to everybody, but the office-seekers manage'to make their own movements not less interesting, While our.stalwart voters keep one _ eye on Harper's Ferry and Manassas Gap, they are ovliged to -faaten. the gaze of the other oa San Franciseo and Sacramento. The maneuvers:of Unionist and Secessionist armies are worth-watching, but not more so than the maneuvers of Republican and Democratic conventions, ; The Republicans have held their convention, selected their candidates, and are aow ,in the field, ready to do or die, in the cause of the Union and the hope of a party triumph. They have acted cunningly,, these Republicans,in putting excellent names on their state ticket, Its true, some of their opponents fancied a mistake had beén made in nominating Frank Pixley fer Attorney General : but Frank has. come out, like a major, and bitterly denies being an abolitionist, as charged by his democratic non-sdmirers, and claims a total aad unreserved exemption from all species and degrees of fanaticiam ; all his blood-an’-ouns seribblings in.the Sant ’ Franciseo Times to the contrary notwithstanding, Frank, having washed his hands clean of abolitionism, there 1s nothing more to be said about him; and,as far as he is con~~ gerned, the Republican ticket would instantly pass muster, were ft not that hosts of Democrate and not a few Republicans appear anxjous to know something about Mr. J. FChellis, the candidate for Lieutenant Governor, ‘These seekers after‘knowledge under difficulties cry at the tops of their vuices #* Do tel) us, Who’s Chellis?” When Chellia or his friends shall have apPe public curiosity, as to who and what he may be permitted to slide slong. in ~The Deabbaks Union Democrats, who are to hold the State Convention on the annivergary of our national Independence, ought to give heed to the shrewd example set them ‘y the Republicans, and not make dunces of themselves by filling up their state ticket . with the rag, tag, and bob-tail of their party. They are not so sure of winning, that they can afford to carry any nore weight, in their race with the Republicans, than properly and henestly belongs to them.

But Geo. Butler sprang up and quieted the fears of the multitude ; yet he immediately went out with an architect‘and examined the building, which proyed to be in momentary danger of falling. He returned quickly, and. speaking a word in Choate’s ear as he crossed the platform, he asgured the assembly that there was no present danger, but. he suggested, as the house was somewhat overcrowded, that they sheuld adjourn to the open air in front of the Merrimac House. They did so-without accident, It proved afterward that what he quietly whispered to the: orator was, “Choate, I must clear this house or we shall all be in h—llin five minutes”—a remark most noticeable, whether we regard its coolness under such an apprehension of danger, or its appreciation of the deserts vf his political associates.
