The old jogtrot of politics is changed to the fiery pace of the warhorée. The accustomed platitudes and . aphorisms of partisan editors and stump ora“tors must. give place to new and startling ‘propositions, to issues involving more stu; ‘ pendous consequences than the old and worn‘out distinetions betwixt tweediedum and (Bweedledee.

TBF A book has recentiy been published an Berlin designed to show that no such men “Hannibal, Alexander the Great, or "yaica Cesar ever existed. In two years. “a book Will bé published denying ‘the existence of Napoleon Ignacio AturBonaparte, : Ef «thao ge ent oon eenlareet city, denies that any change of popular feeling has taken place since the bloody renconoo with the Massachusetts. troops. It asserts. that Baltimore has always been, .at heart, loyal; but the voice of its citizens was hushed into silence by a mob and their faith. ful allies, the city authorities. Seven out of every ten of the people of Baltimore are more’ devoted to the Union now than ever, but: the fomentors‘and those who aided and abetted the foul deeds of the 19th of April, have not changed one iota. The same elements that assailed the passage of the Massachusetts troops are alive still, and would certainly break out again on the first renewal of the causes of the former outbreak. It is evident that “the mob are all armed = still. They have not surrendered a single weapon.— There is a house on Green Mount avenue, pretty. well out, in whichare seereted several large pieces of ordnance. A large quantity of powder has been stored-in the vaults of Green Mount Cometery ! so that not even the sacred precincts of the dead are free from -the intrusion of the conspirators.— House after house in the Five Points quarters of the city is stored with murderous weapons, and what is more, these depots of arms. and munitions are kuown to. the Chief of Police and his men. While the mob, or Col. Trimble’s ununiformed men, as they are dignified with the title, are thus miantained {by the city authorities, in an atitude of terror and hostility to honest citizens, they are spending borrowed treasure by the thousands, to increase the. military force to be used against the United States. THE FoLsum PENAYENTIARY, -—— The sprightly Sacramento correspondent of the Marysville Appeal; speaking of. the bill for? establishing.a branch state prison at Folsom, says it was introduced in the “Assembly,.an hour before adjournment, and passed in dou‘ble quick time.. It was, however, defeated inthe Senate. Had this measure been introduced in the Legislature at an early day in the session, and its merits and the necessity for a branch ptison filly’ discussed and anderstoed, there is.but. little doubt. that it weuld have , passed in some shape, as it will ‘undoubtedly ‘at aiother session. While the want of such provision for the care, inanagement and profitable employment of the state convicts is ackuowledged by all, there was a decided disinclinatiun toallow interested parties to make the state's necessities, the basis.of.a monster speculation. The state prison has been extensively used for this purpose already, and the thing is emphatically played out, as the last portion of MeCauley’s history abundantly proves. 3 The printers of San Francisco are forming a.military organization under the stars and str The. disciples of Faust are the very men for soldiers.

Slemmer with dispatches to Washington, apprizing the Government of the absolute necessity of instautly reinforcing and provisioning Fort Pickens. On his way; Lieut. Smead visited the Cotton State Government at Montgomery and traitorously exhibited his dispatches. The cunning telegraphic. wires informed the Government at Washington of his treason, so that when he arrived there his dispatches . . were receivéd and he, himself, ignominiously struck from the roll of the army. \ His wife and’ children were in, Fortress. Monroe, whitherhe instantly hastened ; bat the wires were again ahead of him. He was not permitted to enter the Fort, but was décorded an interview without the walls. Attended by a few female friends, she. met him, and thus replied to his request to: accompany . him: “Go home with you!” she exclaimed. “Never! Our paths in.this world. are hereafter separate. I disown you, A coward and traitor. you are no husband of .mine. Henceforth you are to meas if dead. As long as I live I shall wear mourning, and be as & widow; and rest assured I shall edacate our: children ‘to execrate ‘ahd despise your memory as that ofa recreant and traitor.” % He wended his way South to receive the reward of his treachery, and she, -with her children to the North.

But by all: we hold dear, Jet us try to keep . down excitement here at home. California is devoutly fot the Union, and we can afford to be tolerent. There should be no proscription. This would be as unwise as it would be unjust.” THE schooner Emily has sailed from San Francisco for Mazatlan with the material for a steamer, which is intended to navigate the inland waters of Sinaloa, under the auspices of a company who have a franchise for fifty years.
