sw AON nde THURSDAY MORNING JUNE 4th For Governon.—Three eniididates receive prominent mention for gubernatorial F.F. Low, late accidental member of Con« -greséand now Collector of Customs for the port of San Francisco. In what we have to , say concerning Mr, Low and his sapirations to the chief magistracy we ure not governed . by any spirit of opposition to bim personally or politically, We spoke in commendation of his appointment to the Castom House.— Hilo is 8 first rate business man, and his gens‘al ‘manners and unimpeachable euaviter in mibdo, render bim approachable and popalar. ~~. But Mr. Low has accepted the sappoint. “tment to the Custom Huuse, The Depart-. ment at Washington relies upon him to dia~ charge the duties of that position. We suppose, though we do not know it, thst Mr, Ghase had assurances from Mr. Low, that he would take the office before the Jatter left Washington. It seems to us that Mr. Low should act in good faith towards the Depart-~ ment, and not seek after higher positions for Bat there are worse features to the affair, with which we are ready-to acquit Mr. Low of all complication or. blame. We understead that the old Custom House inhabitants, the Watrous-Barstow and Chenery crowd, and the Connens -clique, are all for Low. Whyt They want the Custom House vacated once more, probably hoping te get a chance in for some particular friends. There was a talk a while ago, that Low did not care to take the office from Rankin. The latter bas triends who would prees him for twappointment. . Conness. wants the offior vacated, vo that he can get one of his own friends in it, and the old Central Committee orewd are ready to play for their own en's. The Custom Houee is a powerful lever in the hends of a factin, and the character of Fred. Low is such that the old political -_ wiresworkers see but little show to use bim for their purposes while he remains Collectet, They, therefore, want him cut of the . way, and the only sure mode of getting rid * qf &im isto make » Governor out of him.— For reasous given he is just the man to re~ main in the Custom House. The Government is sure of fair play, and the people of the State can rely on net being ruled by a ~ faction supported by the subsidies of the Custom House as under the Democratic regime. oo More Vicor.—The term of a large vumber of soldiers in our armies expires in July and August. Why the President has not called eut five hundred thousand men to fill their places, is incomprehensible to us.} When the term of the nine menths men ex‘pitee we shall be wesk unless they consent “te enlist again. We ought to have men ready to take their places. It is acknowl. edged that the rebels are mure deeponding now than ever before, and nw is the time %@ press them with an overwhelming force. If weare not able to crush them now we fear, our armies will only be able to stand on _ the defensive when the nine months men are digoharged, and if so, then but little will be done before another spring.The conscript act ought to be enforced without a moment's delay. The conscripts should be in the field receiving inatrnction at this moment. If disaster comes, the President will-have no one but himself to blame because Congress has put all the muscle and all.the money of the-nation at hia bidding. For God's and your country's sake, Mr. Lincola, shove that old tnoubus Halleck aside, call out the conscripts, and shout to the capporheadd, “wake snakes, and come to judg. me . GH The paraen inquires diligently what the‘causs’of Mr. Rankin’s removal from the Custom House is. The parson reminds us of'the character in one of the popular novels. who always inquired, after everybody was done laughing, what the point’ of the juke ~~wae, and then his lone, hearty ha! ha! ha! was heard abalf hour after the rest were with their onchination. ) the time another special agent Brown, has made 4 report stating the faults of Mr. Rankin. possibly the parson may wool the difficulty, and then—why then, we may have some very sage discourse from the pareon, though it be a century behind time. : + : CHaNGEeD.—The Hesperian has changed ‘menced his assault enrher than any other _ Easrern. News.—Chiz The following 1s the ouly connee: of the poor ye at Vickebu May 22d yet published: By 2 o’cluck in th ning «of the 224 our wrtliery fired and destfoyed three carrier magazines in the rebel forts, } one on the center and twoon thelett of the center. The first and third brigades of Lo gan’s division, commanded by Uenerals Smith ond Stevens, apvanced at 114 v’elock. ‘Two regiments of Stevens’ brigade were provided with sealing ladders 40 feet long, but had-no opportunity to use them, being driven back bebre teaching the rifle pits. Logan’s mew weremret by overwhrlming numbers of the intrenchrd joe. Huns dreds of them jumped inity t.e ditches, but the number who. reached ‘the . parapet Was sinall. Nearly two companies rushel into: the fort aud were captured. The fl.g of the 7th: Missouri regiment waseplunted on the parapet after seven color bearers had been shot-down, amid.a terriie storin of bullets ead grape shot. The third brigade maintaied its position until they relli d. Tuey advauced, hulding-thrir fire to pour inte the rifle pits. After their ascent.of the parapet the enemy gave them vollvy atter voliey as they approuched, sending terrible devastation among their: ranks. The loss in Stevens -brignde will reach nearly 300. To the left of Logan, mw the center, Gen. Quimby's division joined bravely in tre ussault, but they could not accomplish the work assigned them. We were driven back with heavy loses. Onthe left McClernand comcominander. The first advance was made by Mele rvand’s center. Stuith's division of: two brigades under Cul. Landrum and Gen. Burbridge. As early as 31. a’clock Land. rum’s men took the furtand were in actual session of it. Gen. Osterhaus_on their eft wade a breach in the-suuth side of their works with Lee's artillery, There were two companies of rebel soldwrs in it all the tine ; one Fan away and the other surrendered. Lundrum, on obtaining pessession of te fort, put a force at work to throw up earth works in the rear, so ne to bring ‘the guns of the fort to bear “sae the rebels. In constructing their fortificutions the rebeis leit the rear of all their forte epen to give opportunity to axsault our men in the event of our success in driving them out. The flags «if the 48th Obio, 77th Ihnois and the 19th Kentucky floated from the inner slope of the parapet trom half-past i}a.m. till 4 P.M., When the rebels were seen preparing for a charge to retake it. Our men aid nit receive the support which had been prom. ised and werd compelled to fall back, leaving the em my upie in possession. Memphis, Juuw . .—On Suturday night the Seminary arrived with news trem below to the 28:h. She reports the gunboat Cincinnati sunk by the fire of tae Vicksburg batteries on the 26th, with the reported loss of over 20 killed and wounded. Several of our-men had been captured er ‘ou account of the scarcity of Oot * New York, June 2.—Port Royal advices state that our forces on Folly Island were at~ tacked on the 26th of May by the rebela, who were repulsed, Gen. Hunter has issued an order drafting all able bodied men fuund ia the Departinent alter June 16th: ——_-—__--—— into the interior of Florida. A British blockade ranner, in trying to grt out of Charleston, was discovered on the night of the 20th of May and sunk before it could reach the ber, by the _Powhattan. The officers and crew are supposed to have perished. — . On the 23d May another steamer was diacovered and fired into. She crossed the bar under a heavy fire and sunk in the main evannel off Morris Island. Both had large Curgees. ; ~All furloughs had been stepped in Hun~ ter’s departinent. It was reported that several regimenta had been ordered to Virginia, but Hunter had reiused to let them ga aund.sent a. pretess to the President. Th: Mumitors still lie off Edisto. The Ironsides is opposite Fort Sumter. pars New York, Muay 31.—The Post understands that General Fremont haa been elects President of the Eastern Division of the Pacific Railroad. : Chicago, June 1.—A letter from Headquarters, near Vicksburg, giving details of the battle, suys our loss ie 2,500 killed and wounded. ‘The rebel lose ia trifling, Our army is not demoralized. There seems to have beva a lack of oooperation between subordinate and etperior offivera in charge of the storming parties;-which periwhed for want of support. No second attempt to redice Vicksburg by assault will be invade. It will probably be taken by reg. ular approaches. No danger of an attack in the rear is pepeieaiet, Dispatches from. rebel General Pemberton ta Lee or Johnaton (intercepted) sxy—“Don't attack Grant's rear with less than 50,000.” The following additional news was report» ed at Havana: The yellow fever has broken out atnong the French troops io Mexico. Or the 8th. of Muy they met Comiontort, who having received rehutorcem ‘nts tried to ate tack the rear of the French forces. Gen. Bas avn's division was eppesed, which defeated its opponent completely, The battle took . place near Sin Lorenzo. -Commonfort lost 500 men killed, wounded-and _ prisoners, 8 rifled cannon and the greater’ part of his equipments and munitions of war. It apy preoieel object to force the entrance into uebla of a large convey of provisions and ammunition. Gen. Ferey had received in time a part of the heavy artillery which he} expected, and already on the 10th, had moun« ted a battery opposite the fort of Selimens huen, the one wost ¢ in Puebla. On the saine day the artillery began to fire, It ie etated that an expedition is being sent . pears that Commonfort’s attack had for ite . town, and Ortega su ditions with all bs forces, including all the partillery and equipmeot. There-would be léft_in Puebla only the necessary garrisun to Ite being troubled by guerillas. and the turces would take up their : Capitol. The number of pady stated. <— 4 prisuners is as j Gen. Gaaneer’s Mernop or TREATING DisLoraL Persoxs.—A correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, ‘writing from Franklin, Tenn., thus «xplains Ger. Grans ger’s method of treating loyal and disleyal people: : “There are but halfa dozen Union families b Franklin, out of a population of one thou and five “hdndted inhubitants. The Unign people are put td no inconveniences, and afe allowed to go anywhere within our lines, while the Secessioniste, both male and femule are deprived of all prisideges, and fore bidden to leave the town, upon the penalty of being arested as spies. When persons apply to the General for passes he does not Heh. then} y dre willing t+ take the wath, or if they are willing to acknowledge the, Federal Goverum-nt, but inqu res, “Have you always been a loyal eitizen of the United States?” He adunts of but one. answer, prefaced by no ile wnd ands. If they answer *Yes,’ be wakes them prove their loysity.— If they answer ‘No,’ he informs them that he cousid-rs that none but loyal people are entitled te privileges. and. grants none; and all the talking, emiles, and taking of oathe amounts to nothing with bin, and he gives the applicants to understsnd that. “The misery and sufferings of the rebels can hardly be imagined. They have no firewood, and in two weeks more will have nothing to eat. Not a market wagon is allowed toentertown. All the rebels are en~ gaged in cutting down their fruit and ornamental trees for firewood, and immany cases the_owners are destroying their fenges and outhouses for the same purpose. The half adezen Unien families, by order of Gen. Granger, ure being supplied with firewood by the soldiers, and the necessiries of life they are permitted to procure from the Quartermasters at Government rates. Under no consideration are the rebels permitted to cross any of the picket lines, even to attend a funeral, -anless niiking onth that they will hot return until the termination of the war.” RAMPANT Stcesstonist*.—We_ learn, on “ar. authority, says the Alta, that the rebels'in San Bernardino county are, and have been for some time t, conducting their summary punishment as traitors tu the loy»! Government under which they live. It 1s said that regularly organized banda exist throughout the county, and that in the tewn of San Bernardino they pablicly boast of their
disloyalty. These cliques of traitors should not be tol ‘rated in a state so overwhelmingly Union as js Califorma. Close eonfinement and coarse diet. on Alcatraz would teach thema lesson, evenifit failed to eradicate their insane ideas relative to the right of Seeéssivol'. = 2 Tnueediter of the Wheevling (Va.)
