-. have been learned in St. Louis the next day Under our telegraphic head will be found the election news, from the eastern side of ’ the.continént, as it was issued by ts, yester_ day forenoon, in an extra. The news reach“ed Fort Churchill, yesterday morning at one d’clock, whence‘ ft was telegraphed to’ the Sacramento Union, too late for ite yesterday's issue, and, therefore, published in an extra_ “of that paper. “A copy of that extra was — to-the Transcar?. ~ The news is duted at St. Louis, Nov. 7, the next-day after. the election, and thence telegraphed to Fort Kearney, on the Platte river, it which ‘point it ‘Was taken by the pony and: carried to Fort Churchill. The exact distance, traveled by the pony, between the two telegraphic stations, of Port Kearney and Fort Churchill, we have no means: of knowing; but, what ever it ia, the’ pony accomplished it in less . than six days. ° " Ht seems astonishing that somuch of the election results, in twenty-one states, should after the voting, while, in our-own state, on the eighth day after the election, we are still unable to definitely state which presidential candidate ‘hns a plurality. On the eastern side of the Continent ‘they excel us in supe~ pior telegraphic favilities, and they must exert much greater dispatch in counting the * yotes than our judges and inspectors. O/ course, the officiul votes, in many, if notall, of the 21 states heard from, will slightly’ differ from the statements brought by the lust pony; but whether they will enhance or depress the Lincolh majorities is more than ean be safely predicted. oItseems that Lincoln has carried the fol, lowing States, which we have set down,.with the number of their electoral votes.appended ‘Mussachusetts,.-..137 i. a CC.

Pennsylvania, . .27 Making, altogether, 176 electoral votes. The whole number of eleetoral votes in the Union is 303, and a majority of the whole, or the number necessary ta elect, is 152. Thus it appears that, without the 7 votes of California and Oregon, Lincoln has received 24 more-votes than aro necessary toelect him. Douglas seems to have a prospect of carrying Missouri, and hag done well'in the Mobile district of Alubama, but, as the southern and southwestern States will be mainly: dividedbetween Bell and Breckinridge. the Little Giunt appears destined to be hindmost in the race. Of course,«those States that have voted for Bell—the Union candidate par excelience—will oppose any attempt to disrupt the Republic. Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee are supposed to be Bell States, and will not consider Lincoln's election a suf. ficient cause for a dissolution of the Union. ie > @AurorNIAN Hops.—Californian heps aré beginning to come into the market. The Petaluma Journal states, that Messrs. Bushnelland Allen, of Green Valley, Sonoma Co., have gathered 5,000 pounds-frum nine acres, _ and are selling at fifty cents per pound. This sum yields $275 per acre. It would pay well for farmers to devote a little space to so valuable an articls and fer which aale will always be round. Ina county, which boasts a6 niany lager beer breweries os Nevada, the cultivation ot hops ought to be profitable.— ‘Our mountain soil suits the hop well. It grows luxuriantly in North 8:n Juan.

This elean sweeping up of the remains of mortality takes in all who have died in California as far backas in 1848, when they first commen‘Ged their immigration hither—the religion of ,the Chinese making it ineombeent upon the ‘friends of those who.die abroad to see the ash}e4 taken back to. their native soil. All the Chinese who die at present are carefully boxed up and sent to S:F., where they are deposited in a special receiving Vault at Lone Mountain Cemetery, constructed fer this purpose at the expense of some of the principal Chinese mercantile housesin San Francisco; and when a sufficiently large number have been collected, they are sent acrosa the ocean ‘to Chima.

We did not learn the cause of the quarrel nor the hames ‘of the parties. The murderer bas been arrested. SHarRP TRape.—The Contra Costa Ga} zette has heard of a fellow in that county, who agreed to vote a certain ticket for five dol. lars.
