The electrical fldid is about to supplant the pony, aa & bearer of intelligence between’ the Atlantic and Pacific. Between Sacramento City, in California, and St. Louis, in Missouri, there sre but about five hundred miles on which the most important itema of news, either way, have to be carried on the back of thé peny ; and thése five hundred miles are growing “small by degrees and beautifully less.” Advices from the “Plains” give us the pleasant assurance that, east of Salt Lake City, there wre but about three hundred miles, of the great transcontinental telegraph line, on which the wires are not stretehed ; and, on this-side of the Mormon Capital, there remain but about two bundred miles over which the wires .have yet to be éxtended. This little space of five hundred miles the pony gallops over in three days and ahalf; and thus, three days and a baff is just the length of tine occupied inthe trans mission of intelligence -between the Atlantic and Pacific. In a few wéeks, when the telegraph line shall havé reached. Salt Lake City frou the east-and west; California will be placed in synchronous rapport with her sieter states, on the eastern side of the con, tinent,in the matter and’ article of reciprocal intelligence. ~The pony haa been, and still is, a moat serviceable and beneficent :nstitution, but its glories are nbout to “ pale their ineffectual firea’”’ in the. transcendent «lustre of the ‘Lightning Messenger!" The pony has the “wings of the wind,” but he has not the power of utterly annihilating time and space, _Jike the telegraph. The news of a grand battle on the Potumac, through the magical agency of the wires, will reach Sin Iran. cisoo in the sane moment in which. it will “travel to Baltimore or Philadelphia. There was atime when we, of Califernia, were compelled to “ possess our soule in patience,” ‘and wait for weeks for intelligence of events onthe Atlantic seaboard, which, when we learned them, had been quite forgotten at the places of their occurrence, Soon, we shall be fully up with our’ brothers and sisters of the east, in all affturs of great public concernment, and be enabled to share with them, simultaneously, in their Joys and sorrows. What a great triumph of acience! What an astounding victory of intellectual Man over elemental Nature. Norts Caroutna.—It is stated in tate easter) intelligence, on the authority ofa reliable North Carolinian, that the Union prospects in that State are most encouraging. The acting Governor is a reliable Unionist. Secret leagues ‘oyalty exist in every county, and are rapidly gaining strength. A provisional State Government wall be put into effect in a few months. Two full brigndes of loyatists are enrolled. The leagues have made extended arrangements for the election of a member of Congress from every district, four were knowy to have b en elected on August 21at, and latest advices say the entire eight have.bern elected by a large vote. Their certificates will bear the Governor's signature and the State seal. Since the engagement at Hatteras, the North Caroline troops have been withdrawn from Virginis, many of them refusing to continue in the Gonfedernte employment. THe Cutcaco PLATPORM.—The Marysville Appeal, very sensibly expresses ite willingness to-see this platform ehare the fate or al¥other platforms and quietly drop into oblivion. Tt is a decument exeeedingly frightful to certain Democrata, who have never read it and know not what it professes, nnd many of its tenets are no longer applicable to the present state of our national affaire The Constitution of the United States, read and interpreted by the lights of rearon, justice and humanity, is a sufficient plitform for all true Am: ricans in the present crisis. — ee €# The editors of the Marysville Appeal were thrown into ecatasies, one day last ’ week, ty a amall party of Indies paying a visit ‘te their sanctum. They glorify this little incident at a wonderful rate, ae though it-were the very ne plus ultra of all human delectations. ‘‘ How use doth breed a habit feaman.” Ladies, in small and large’ partien, visit us, nearly every day, without makdog Be nervous. _justinent. afi, We Masowny AxD Unsion.--An eloquent Appeal to the Present and Past Grand Masters of all,thé Grasid Lodges of Free Masons in all the States, signed by six Past Grand Masters of Kentucky, four of Tenseéssee, one of Massachusetts, one of Ohio, and one of Indiana, is being extensively published in the eastern journals, imploring the Ancient Broth@hood to come forward und save the Union. It points significontly to the fact, that the politicians, who claim to be our men from Whom, in this terrible crisis, we can expect peace and reunion, It askgphe Masons, North and South, -to rise above all seétional feelings, and view, from an elevated standpoint, the whole condition of af fairs and the whole issues before the country, and, if possible, devise some, fair and just plan by whieh the discordant and belligerent. interests, which are now in hostile array, may be softened into peace and adjustment. _Itis to be hoped that this Appeal to the great heart of Amerieah Masonry has, not been.madein vain, The Frateryity has the power, if it have the will, to mike itself be felt:for good, in this season of calamity, afd compel the bad passions of the hour to #uccumb to reason and benevolence. ~ ‘The Appeal closes with » proposition to all the Present and Pust Grand Masters of all the States to meet in. Gowiaville, Kestucky, on the 3d Monday in Ovtober—this present mouth—where they will be hospitably entertained and be enabled to consult upou a feasible plan of fraternal and honorable adMay glorious success await the project. Tit JEWS INCREASING.—It is said that in the year 1850. there were only.ten synugogues in the whole land, To-day there are over a quarter of a million of Jews and about ninety synagogues, and amnaller communities, out of whieh will soon be orgunized other synagogues. In the cityof New York there are twenty synagogues and thirty thousand Jewa, or about one-twentieth of the poptilation of that city. In all ‘the principal seahoard cities there are synagogues; there are two in Boston, five in Baltimore, three in New Orleans, two in Charleston, four in Cincinnatti, and five in Philadelphia. ee es 5 FLAX Corpon.—The Sacramento Bee hos a long leader on thiaaubject. A cdrporation, with plenty of money, has eatablished at Lockport, N.Y. and proposer buying at good prices all the flax the farmers chooxe to bring, and to manufacture from it every article now made ofcotton, and aa cheap. Very well informed men are at the head of the project and Cottendom is greatly alarmed. There is little room to doubt flax cotton will be a success. CP Isham G. Harris, Governor of Tenneasee, has ordered every house in the State to be searched by the county constables for old musketa, rifles, bayonets, ewords and pistole. The officers are to receive one dollar for every musket and bayonet they discover, and fifty cents each for eworda and pistols, a eee = MonovitLe.—Aceording te the correspondent of the Tuolumne Courier, the oeeupations of the citizens of Monoville are cliasified aa followa: Lt baaket maker; 1 butcher's shop; 2 juatioes; tl doctor; 1 doctoress ; 5 shoemukers y 2 expreasoflices ; 3 livery atablea; 10° mining and. grocery stores; 16 saloona and whiaky shops; 3 bakevies ; I literary depot; 1 barber shop 5 5 reataurants ¢ Equarte mill; TP tinner; 1 da. guerreotypint; 7 hydraulic? : 10 funilies ; 6 celered men, : arene KIssING BY A REGIMENT. —The Webster Times relates the following incide.t of the return of the Sixth regiment: The engine halted for water at the North Village, and as the girls in Slaster's Mills had congregated upon the lawn, between the mill and the railroad track, the soldiers flocked from the care nnd occupied the few minutes of the halt ina most prolonged and indisoriminate kissing, te whieh the blushing girla aubmitted with a commend» ble and becoming grace.” ——s Caricket.—The Grass Valley and San Francisco Cricket Clubs had a mateh recent: lv at San Franciseo and the mountain boys were second beat. They are not disheartened, however, and have challenged their late adversaries for a return game to come off at Grass Volley before long. ‘They think they will have better luck next time. a * Tre Kine oF Gaescs ‘ro Vierr EncLAND.—Otho, King of Greece, ia about to visit.

WHEREAS, the progress of the war in defence of the Union and the Constitution has given evidence of a degree of strength and energy on the part of those who are madly striving to destroy the government of the United States,which can only be subdued by the, marshaling of an ovewhelming force ; und whereas, it is evident that to this end all the resources, both of nen and means in the loyal States, will be needed. if we would avoids ‘protracted struggle and secure the blessings of un early, honorable and enduring peace: and wheieas, humanity and interest alike demand the speedy attainment of this end ; therefore, : . Resolved, That this Chamber, in view of the unexpécted magnitude of the contest, deeins it a duty to renew its pledge to the Government of earnest sympathy and support. : ; Resolved, That the members of this Chawber having entire confidence in the integrity” and ability of the head of the Treasury Department, will exert their best efforts, individually and collectively, aud in connect on with moneyed institutions, to strengthen the financial resources und credit of the Governnent. ; Resolved, That this Chamber pledges to Government, an untaltering support in a vigO¥ous prosceution of the war, until every rebel has laid down his arms, and every State has returned to its.allegiance. ‘The contest, °it believes, admits no other termination, since any other busis ofpeace would dishonor the nation and prove to the world that our cherished form of popular govern. ment is a failure. ~ Resolved, Vhat all aid afforded the enemy,either by supplying means of proseeuting the war, or openly advocating their cause, 1s with the. utmost rigor of the law, and by the, stern rebuke of public opinion. Resolved, That the deeisive course reeently adopted by the Government and its. cominanding officers affords gratifying proof that the future of this contest is net to,.be conwar in the spirit of peace, but that the guilty conspirators will be made to feel, both in their persons and property, dil the mgors that the uses of civilized warfare will ju:tify. ae ee ae lea A CONVENIENT LETTER SHEET.—Alfred Pell, of New York, is the inventor of a neat note and letter sheet, which is so folded a8 to furnish its own envelop, and it bas the Government postage stump on the outside. The advantages to the user are the conveniences nfforded in dispatching a letter; the Government has the security that the same stamp will be used only once. It is estimated that a million of letters are sent to the dead-letter office annually from the loss. of the pasted stamps uf their transmission threugh the PostOffices. Pell’s patent avoids all accidents of this sort. ‘The Government has purhased the patent, and allows themventor a percentage ou the sheets which are put up in packages of one hundred und sold by the stationers MAINE ELEcTION.—Returns from seventy-one towns, give Washburn 20,343, Jameson 8,151, Dana 5,205.

The Hot Sulpyur Springs House, kept by Mr. Fenstermaker, (in which the editor of that paper and a traveling companion chanced to he sleeping at the time) was jerked spasmodically, asif it would be torn to pi ces. The trees were agituted, and a noise went through the forest hk a seund of rolling thundes. COL. MULLIGAN. —The st.
