7 # 4 She Morning Transcript. 8 pears . NEVADA CITY. * ts i : od _° PUESDAY /MORNING, INOV. 26th. f sel pthe--Caroline;-was—edguged-in-carrying . La <7 athe Mason and Sitdell Affair. A great many, good natured they may be, ~or possibly very-fedrful individuals, are get-ting tremulous about ‘the Mason and Slidell affair; and some are so very desitous of ‘keeping on the good side of the British Government that they are willing and antious to deliver up the traitors with an apology for Coni. Wilkes’ conduct, and then proceed to SACRAMENTO.—We have been on a ‘trip. to Sacramento. Itis # good thing to get’ down out of the salubrious air of the mountains to the muddy. streets and _musketoting regions of the.Capital. We like it. wears away false. ideas of-other places and renders.us the.more content with home. We saw:theifar, framed ‘buildings of Lincoln—we did¥that city-of magnificent distances and great expectations. The cars come.to duineoln.now, and the place enjoys a considerable-trade:in wood. New pine stakes are driven all around on the plains about Lincoln. The peaplé about there stake a great deal, in fact all they have in lots, with a perfect abandon. Stopping about a minute and 8 half.in.the new city we had an ample opity te see most of the principal thorcourt martial the Commodore for it. We ple. The latter are good fellows generally, . Com. Wilkes did just what ‘the loyal pe ple of these United States are glad‘he did do. He took the. responsibility of arresting the traitors Slidell and Mazon, on board a British ¥easel, and brought them into the possession of the country they were plotting against.— Jn this course he has the sympathy of every loyal-heart in the Union. unsanctioned by the precedents of civilized _ nations.’ “Great Britain herself has furnished one notable precedent of recent memo1y.— In the rebellion in Canada an American vesstores from the American:side to Navy Island for the use of the rebels. “The British, finding the steamer jvas injuring the royal gov“ ernment, consulted ouly the exigencies of the case and, invading Amefican soil in the dead hour of night, cut the vessel from its.moorings, set it en fire and sent it over the Falls ot Niagara. ‘T'wo or three lives uf Ameri“ eang were lost in performing this exploit. Of » . gourse, the matter was taken ecognizanee of ry y the Government of the United States, and a long and able controversy ensued. It will be recollected that.the British Government claimed that destroying the Caroline Was an act of self-defense, and perfectly justified — John Quincy Adams took the same view of the matter. When McLeod was seized in New Youk; by the authorities of that State, and put upon trial for destroying life’ at the time of the destruction of the Caroline, the British Government interested itself largely to procure his release. The arguments used by the English Minister at that time are good in the case of Com. Wilkes. We-got no redress from Grent Britain forthe invasion of our soil and the destraction of American life and property. Indeed, Allan MeNab, the in. stigator of the deed, wns knighted for it.— ‘Our Government came to the conelusion that the affair was of too trifling importance to go to war about. “We did not get reparation for the lose of life. The State authorities of New York contented themselves with seizing McLeod on his landing in that State and holding hitn responsible’ ds un individual for the Joss of American life, and he was cleared in our own courts. The case of the Carolina furnishes.a strong precedent in justification of Com. Wilkes—a "precedent decidedly in favor ot our’side in the present. affuir.’ Wilkes invaded no English soil, destroyed no English lives,/and burued no English property. If seized on ‘by the British Government no bigh crime could be-made out of the arrest atid abductien of the rebels, Slidell and Mason. The actis only ax insult to the British flag, at . most There was no palpable injury done to any one, anil those who imagine the Government of Great Britain will go to war for so ifling a cause are prone to be frightened at shadows. Nothing can grow out of itexcept, verhaps, & superabundance of diplematic anguage, whieh each side will feel obliged 4 to indulge in to keep up »ppearances and vindieate, ba it is called, national dignity. PROFITABLE.—A field of broom corn in _ Napa county has yielded, after paying al! expenses, a profit of $60 per acre. {An Jowa man has invented a machine to be attached to any mower or reaper, which, with the attendance of one man, will bind grain with wire as fast as cut. te The French Emperor, has refused to permit French officers to volunteer in the. United States army. (e Ancther large flouring iiiitt has-been built in Round Valley, Mendocino county. te Emma Grattan, or Mrs. Courtaine, and her brother Harry, ran away from Hongkong after swindling the hotel keepers and mowspapers to the amount of $1,000. * Sone ten catalan > A San Francisco barber having an intemperate man to'shave on Sunday, begged him to keep his mouth shut, as it was a pun. ishable offence to open a1um hole on the Sabye Nor are his actions’ perhaps a little wild which ,we attributé to. their habitation away from the haunts of men. ‘ -Aefew dozen puffs of the mocolotive-amt] we begun to get along over the plains ; pass} ed numerous cattle with plenty of points and mighty sharp ones too; cattle-on the plains, or their owners, need blowing up this year. The lean, hungry kine of te scriptures and. the pastures of the Sacramento Valley are probably of the same breed. We saw no ‘fat ones however, to be devoured. _ Sacramento is going togise in the world a little. The people are about to hoist the buildings and raise the grades. ‘The work is needed, and, notwithstanding the city is head and ears in debt, it will be done. _In spite of muddy streets, enormous taxes, and wretched dullness during half the year,Sacramento is actually improving. New buildings have gone up. and more are going. Indeed there are many. substantial signs of permancy and prosperity. The State Capitol is beginning to xear.its walls. It will be one ot the most imposing State Houses in the United States when completed. But if the finishing touches are paid for out of the first four millions of dollars, We iniss our guess. : _ The hotel keepers of Sacramento are anxiously awaiting their harvest when the Legislature assembles. So are a good many other classes. Dry Goode-are going off pretty fast in Sacramento. The ladies will have their fixins in spite of. war,‘pestilence er famine of their husbands’ pockets. We found Tom Findley xp to his eyes in nioney bage and -work. It’s a fact; Tom and his men have had to do the work of pre deeessors. The affairs in the Treasurer’s office have been put into excellent shape by Findley and his efficient clerks. . Tae News is chard, The rebel Missourians, in Legislature assembled at Neosho iad passed an ordinance of secession. This is the winding up of the farce. A body of renegades have inet-in an obscure corner in a convenient place to slip into Arkansas in case of danger, and there declare the State from which they have almost been driven by the votesand arme of the people, out. of the Union. The pirate Walker looked across the Gulf of California and anreked Sonora to Lower California by a stroke of the pen. Rebel Missourians imitate the example remarkably well. Great Britai is gruffly friendly and France politely so. Nothing serious to be apprehended from out foreign relations. Lord Lyons is keeping himself quiet. Better reports from him than usuel. The Missouri rebels had made a eaptureof 80 wagons and 200 men between Sedalia and Leavenworth. ; Kentucky is nobly coming up to the defense of herselfund nation. Her quota of troops is full, and she proposes to furnish as many inore for State service until the rebel army is driven from her soil. Jeff. Davis:says the operations of the rebel forces will be suspended partially during the winter. Werather guess they will. The fleets of the Union will put a quietus on many of the nefarious operations of the reb els before the winter is past. ee ae “Ir I caught one of the rebels, I would brand him as they do cattle.” “That wouldn’t hurt them,” said the Deacon, “they are used ‘to being brandy-ed.” ‘ ad >? es The Bierra Democrat gays: If the Democracy had not repudiated the San Francisco Herald in the. recent canvass there wouldn’t have been enough ef the party left to swear by. “ HERE, you bog-trotter,” said_a dandy to an Irish laborer, ‘‘ come. tell me the biggest lie you erer told in. your life, and I'll treat you to a whiskey punch.” “ An* be me sow], I'll do that,” quickly replied Pat, “* yer hon: or ig a gintleman fo BY TELEGRAPH, TO THE DAILY TRANSCRIPT.

C.% B., ete,-were the ~ leading conspirators of the rebellion,”—men whe scarcely owned the shirts on their backs. We quoted, the other day, from the Times, Missuuri correspondence, a graphic picture of the shirtless, shiftless eet in Price’s Lexington Army,— but to-day we have a like picture from ‘Kentucky, in the Mayfield (Ky.,) correspondence of the Herald: * [have noticed nerve what I muy safely presuwe to be true of other localities, that the most furious of the Secessionists are those who never did, and in all probability uever will own & negro, such as briefless lawyers, penniless politicians, needy and seedy: adventurers, whose stock in trade consist of brazea impudenee, ignorance of the must common principles of Government, znd blatant bomt HERIF decree was rehdered in the District Court of the 14th Judicial District of the State of California, in and for the Co. of Nevada,against John Kearns and Martin Ford and ‘n favor of G.

Neosho. had passed an ordinance of secession, united the State to the-Southern Confederacy, and elected Gen. Paines as one et the members of the Confederate Congress. New Yur, Nov. 21st.-—The Mozart Hall Democrats nominated Fernando Wood for “Mayor last-evening. The People’s Democratic Unien Party have nominated Jno. Kerr the,Brewer and Excise Commissioner. The New York Times correspondent says advices received by the government from Great Britain represent that though much sourness ef feeling Is-evident towards the United States there was manifested a feeling in favor of strict neutrality which was daily strengthening. "Advices from France indicate the feeling on the:part of that Government towards the United States, as eordial. Papers in the ease of Gen. Fremont have been for several days in the hands of Major Lee, Judge Advocate of the army, who today made his report to Maj. Gen. McClellan. Aceompanying the report were charges sub-. stantially the same as those preferred by Gdl. Blair. aie Wasuineton, Noy. 21s—Lord Lyons has made no offensive comments upon the Mason and Slidell affair. The reports to the prejudiée of that minister are .positively eontradibted in diplomatic circles. The Government has seized a large mail in tended for the rebel commissioners, Mason and Slidell. It contains files of southern ps pers, letters, dispatches, drafts, &c. WASHINGTON, Nov. 22d.—Col. Phillip St. George Cooke has been appointed Brigadier General in the regular army, instead of volunteers t JEFFERSON City, Nov. 22d.~A train of 80 wagons and 200 men froth Sedalia en route to Leavenworth, was attacked by 500 rebels, and the train captured. _ The town of Warsaw is reported burned by the rebels, to prevent its being used as winter quarters by our forces. WASHINGTON, Nov. 22d.—Kentucky has furnished Government her full quota of the half million of men for the national defence, and preposes to raise as many more for State service until the rebel army is drivea from her soil. : Richmond papers of Wednesday last contain the message of President Davis to the Congress of the rebel States. He says the operations of the army are soon to be partially intermitted during the approaching winter. His message is lengthy and quite
interesting.
