As soon as we were discovered to be in danger the officers of the deck launched and manned the boats and proceeded at once to get the ladies and passengers ashore.

And here it is jnst to o'bservc that great approbation is due to Capt. Randall for his promptness in going on shore to find a proper place to land his passengers, in taking charge of one of the boats himself and beaching it successfully, (when that ol the first officer was stranded,) lor the serious manner in which he urged the men on shore to return with the boats to the wreck when they displaved every desire to desert him, and lor sending his son, Henry Kundall, to supply his 'the wreck, in capacity ue (Henry)-acmtKted himself Inn manner far beyond his years, inspiring all hearts with hope, and preserving as much could be ou- talned under such exciting circumstances.

Tbe italics are the writers. We omit tbe names of the person" mentioned, as they ave not connected with the mutter. The letter, it is ru mored, was written to Arrison'n brother. The language of the letter attracted attention. As soon as Dr.

Vattier, the postmaster, read it, be was from some cause, induced to suspect that it was from Arrison. He immediately sent for Capt. Hokc, the Chiei of Police, and Mr. Iluffin, the Marshal of the City. These officers confirmed the auspicious of the postmaster, and it was determined to visit the place immediately.

Capt. Hokc determined to do the business himself without conferring with any of bis subordinates, and Marshal Ifuffiii having indispensa- blei bupincss to attend to hen-, sent Mr. Lewis Lee, one of bin. deputies, as an assistant to the Chief of Police. A consultation was had with tbe Mayor, and he, feeling a deep interest in the matter, determined to accompany the above officers.

They left a week ago last Monday. no one those who had been consulted, been mvareol'Uieir object They proceeded immediately to Muscatinc, by the VT; ofChicagoand Hock Island, arriving tbere at ten o'clock Tuesday night They registered their names falsely, and retired to rest for the night Enrly the next morning, the officers, as had been agreed upon here, waited upon the Postmaster of the place, made 'him confidant From him they learned that a suspicious fellow nnmcd Willis, was employed in the drug store of Mr. Dougherty, only a few doors from the post office. Tbe description given of Willis, answered the description of Arrison, The Postmaster readily tendered all assistance in bis power, and immediately with the Cincinnatians to the office of Magistrate Kline, to whom the whole circnmrfnnce was related, and he, too, expressed himself willing to aid as far as possible. Kline, upon the affidavit of Capt.

Hokc, issued awarrant for the urrc-Bt of Arrison, aliat Willis. No constable being at hand, Sheriff G. McCloud, and his deputy, James Beehnn, were called into service, and tbe warrant placed in McCloud's Tbe whole party proceeded.to tbe neighborhood of the drug store.

He was handcuffed, taken before Squire Kline, and immediately committed to the custody of tbe Sheriff. As soon asthenewsofthcar- roBt spread through Muscatinc, the whole population was thrown into a state of excitement.

They gathered in an immense crowd around where the prisoner was. seemingly anxious to sec him, but expressed themselves 'determined to aid the officers if any aid was needed. The Sheriff placed Arrison in charge of the Cincinnati officers, and fearing a habeas corpus, it was determined bring him forthwith to Cincinnati. At four o'clock that afternoon, tbe packet McKeccame along, and Arrison, escorted by a full thousand people was taken aboard. He was handcuffed, or more of the officers was by bis.Bide continually, tbe moment of bis arrestTiritil 'he Was' lodged in' prison.

Buchanan, Aylmcr Keith, 41 shillings. John Dcnniston, William A King. S. Bronson, Cashier. The Chicago Democrat says, in consequence of the suspension of the Merchants nnd Mechanics Bank, then 1 was a moderate run upon some of the other city Banks, but they gave, as far as wo can learn, no indications of yielding to the pressure.

The Brokers drove quite a brisk business in the sale of specie at advan- fiecl rates. The Chicago papers are all requested to say that tbe Bank will resume the course of few days. The suspension of the Du Page County Bank and the Bank of Napcrville is denied in the Chicago such reports have grown ont of their business Mr. Bronson was supposed to be a large owner in the Naperville and Du Page Banks. In these times of excitement and distrust, tbe brokers reap a harvest out of the fears of the coinmu nity but there is the probability that after the Banks have depositors will naturally begin to question whether the brokers are any safer, and if they demand their down go tho brokers, even as the Cincinnati brokers have bursted.

Brokers should therefore remember that they may cut their own throatsi even while they are dirking their neighbors. These extraordinary times should teach men to be forbearing rather than more exacting.

Nigbt coming on, and the fog which bad for a short time disappeared, again set in, the boats were stopped running, not being able to nnu tbe shore, and the terror of our situation began to stare us in tbe face. For amid the bowling of the wind; the roaring ol the waves as they broke upon the deck, and the boaiw; order of the third officer, and Mr. Randall, there nroBc tbe loud accents of ardent and dospair- ljuu avufciifc mient libations of the ardent; while some with calm rcRignation bad prepared themselves for the worst and awaited their Jate peace Thus we passed tbe dismal night, made still more solemn by the church-like tolling of the bell, which seemed to beckon us on to onr funcr- Thc scene on shore was equally painful. The boot tbe first officer commanded, witn thirty- one souls, mostly females, was stranded, and nil with tbe exception of himself and three were on the beach, apparently lifeless, were lost Here 1 would record ah instance of female energy seldom equalled even in the annuls of the revolution. A.

Mrs. Jane FJwoll, who had exerted herself by going into the water along side of the boats and carrying the ladies ashore, saw the almost lifeless bodies of two ladies, and said to a young man "yoiiitokeoneand I'll take another," and she picked up one of the bodies and placed it on her shoulder and carried it up an almost perpendicular bluff, to a spot where they had found a camp and built fires, and afterwards, with many other Indies, stripped off all her under-cloths and gave them to the exhausted men. Dnrinc the night a number of bodies washed During the night among others a female with child to extend our thanks for his promptm dine boats to our rescue, and receivini clnfipcd in Lor arms, the wife of Mr. Brcnnan, who as mi extr lonlinary instance of devoted love wemt on shore with spade in up hinwife and over them and then re-buried them. At daybreak the boats were again set motion when Mr.

Hewitt came on board, and al- thongh much stout heart never for- naking the discharge of his duties with astonishing energy. At 8 o'clock A.M. our hearts were made jod by the appearance of a steamer on our rboard quarter, which proved to be the Goliah, Samuel Haley, commander, who, as if by a kind dispensation of Providence, appeared sent to our relief, for had we depended on our own boats, a large number would have been lost as we could not have got ashore that day; and that night the wreck went to pieces; so nothing In the morning was seen but a shell of the stern which had separated and turned bottom up. To Capt. Haley we feel it a particular duty tnossinsen- six hundred of onr number on board his steamer, in which we were taken to San Diego, wither she was bound, where five hundred and thirty-six were left until a steamer could be sent to bear them on their homeward coast.

Before leaving the wreck, we sent on shore nil the provisions to bo found, awning and poles for tents, beds, bedding, clothing, for the use of those that remained, whom it was found necossaryto leave; as the Goliah was too heavily freighted to receive them on board. But it is to be regretted that the actual sufferers nev- 'er received the provisions sent them, for a party composed mostly of to huhu.nity, and holding the advantage by having in their possession a large quantity of firearms and for themselves almost everything that went ashore; and money was seen in their poscssion which, they could not have obtained honestly. The Goliah after making her trip to San Diego, returned to a cove about BIX miles from the scene of the wreck when she received the passengers and crew, and started at half-past 4 o'clock P. M. on the 7th for Montery and San Francisco.

The Californiaus feel that they have been Schuylerized by Meiggs. in a way that throws all modern frauds into the shade: Meiggs was bora in Catekill, N. and lived for many years in Williamsburgh, N. where he was long a member of the City Council. It is said that he became bankrupt in New York, and that when applied to here by some of his former creditors he paid his debts.

He arrived in San Francisco in July, 1849. In the fall of 1850 he was elected to tlie City Council from the First Ward, and again in the fall of 1851. This was the Jenny Lind Council, and Meiggs gained a great deal of popularity by opposing the Jenny Lind purchase. In 1852 he was again elected, and again In 1853. He was a very bold speculator, and had three favorites for speculation, land, lumber and music.

He was the principal person in getting up the California Lumber Company, which erected a mill in 1852 at Mendocino, and from the works of which more than 2,000,000 fest of lumber are now brought monthly to this city. He built Musical Hall, and made great efforts and many sacrifices to have excellent musical performances there. Messrs. Godeflroy, Sillem were credi tors of Mr. Meiggs to the amount oi $200,000, and he confessed judgment in their favor just before leaving.

Under that confession of judgment they attached a large amount of real estate held by Mr. Meiggs. He Wrote a letter to them, delivered after his departure, in which he confessed his crimes and stated that he could not live here any longer. The losses by the failure are thus estimated by the San Francisco Journal: the.hoTriblB murder, a wund to St Louis; nnd' that he know nothing pithc murder until he of-, terwards read the account in the Cincinnati newspapers. During the trip he wastaken down with the cholera, and wasdetaincd in consequence At St Louis.

He wu in that city when ourCinciouati officers were hunting biru i'n Iowa; they, however, rightly corijiBtnring where he was going. He arrived at IIIE father's on the 12th of July, remained there three days, and then left. He has been in Muscatinc, pawing under the name of Willis, since tbojith of August; and though bis conduct woe somewhat singular, no one.tuore ever suspected him of being Arrison. Ue has been indicted by the Grand Jury for tbe murder. All tbe items of evidence him, with tbe names and residences of witnws- es has been carefully gathered, written dopp nnd filed in the Prosecuting Attorney's officoby Marshal Ruffln, so 'lint the evidence is 'easilr got at.

He -will'be brought to trial at (he earliest moment. The particulars of the murder is still frcab in theimcmorv of our renders, audla repetition needless. It "was the most horrible ever, commuted In tbis communltv, and it chills one's blood to think of it. If Arriwu is guilty, death by the scaffold is his fate. Oin.

Steamship Northern Light arrived with California dates to 24th Oct About 450 passengers and $64.545 in specie. The passage was made in 20 days and 12 hours. The quickest trip on record. Nothing of interest has transpired in California sinee the sailing of the last steamer. Better prices were being obtained for general goods and business was getting into a more hi- liy state.

Mr. WALKKK, ex-President of Sonora, is on trial for fillibustiering. Considerable excitement exists in regard to the Meiggi fraud and the apprehension of Smyth Clark, the late Mayor's clerk, who was charged with having unlawfully in his hands large sums of money, amounting to upwards of $300,000. The latter was in custody, and examination had taken place without any satisfactory explanation as to how much of the missing funds. Mr.

Harrison, late city treasurer, had also been arrested, charged with having fraudulently taken the books, papers and money belonging to tbe treasury, in particular the sum of $303,600 in city warrants, unaccounted for by him. the defence, that the newly elected city treasurer has not complied with the securities of the law, hence the withholding. The case had not been decided. Additional forgeries by Meiggs have keen discovered. Further inquiry has much reduced the amount of cash taken by Meiggs, it probably did not exceed $15,000.

Smith, with the lot, for 81,550, and the tavern stand and buildings of Mr. Stapleton, for $1,425. This hi somej thing of an advance in real estate in a town which in 1845, was the site of a tattle between the Indians and whites, and in which the present sheriff of this county was engaged, troops being brought from Fort PAPER Messrs.

Richmond are running their Paper Mill night and day, and are unable to supply the demands of the surrounding country. They manufacture nothing but wrapping paper at present, and it speaks well for their business that they are not able to meet the wants of the mercantile community, after their mill night and day for the last four months. The proprietors are now building machinery for making printing paper, which will be operation in a few months, and no business will pay better in Northern Wisconsin. With the completion of the River improvement, they will be enabled to ship to many points now hardly within reach of their -'land boats." Success to the Appleton Crescent. HOXESTY BEST farmer at Akron lately sold nine bushels of wheat to the Central Mill in that place, and received a check paya- able at the business house of the mill.

On the way he put the figure six before the nine, making it read sixty-nine bushels, and received the pay for that amount The thing was soon discovered, and he was pursued so closely that he withdrew his pocket-book containing the whole amount and cast it madly behind him. This was rather more than expected by his pursuers, and something of a gain to the Perkins inasmuch as they not only received their own back, but also the $16 20. which would have been the pay for the nine bushels justly sold.

She came down to-day, and therefore we suppose the damage amounted to Tel, U.UU lar packets up and down the our vast agricultural lands all producing their rich crops, and the mines yielding their precious ore, what city, ancient or modern, European or American, could long take precedence of San Francisco. Is it not wonderful that while perhaps at this moment, thrones are tottering and empires rending in Europe, while perhaps, the descendants of Tamerlane are sweeping over the nations of the old world, while at least the trained cohorts of universal monarchy are marshaling for the shock and carnage of war, Providence is leading this young Republic in the paths of peaceful conquests, and pointing her out to the effete and crumbling dynasties of Europe, as the future highway of the nations, and the hope of the world. The present year promises to be prolific in great events.

The contest by Russia, now go. ing on for the mastery in Eastern Europe, and the overthrow of the Ottoman in Turkey, and the cunning and deceptive alliance of England and France against the extension of popular power in both hemispheres, are two of the most remarkable occurrences in modern history. The Czar, though doubtless thirsting for'greater political power and dominion, yet In seeking to over-ride the lethargic and drowsy Turk, and build up great commercial and naval interest in the Euxine and treads in the great track of the spirit of progress oi the age Britain and Gaul, sworn and hereditary enemies to each other and to republicanism, take sides with despotism to keep back the people, and prop up the shaking ruins of monarchies. And while our mother-land is striving to preserve the statu balance of dynastic power on continental to secure her object, seeking alliance with the land of Haynau. free and happy America is pursuing the predestined path of Anglo-Saxon liberty, over the Cordilleras and across the vast Pacific, developing the hidden resources of the remotest corners of the earth, and persuading the ignorant and distrustful millions who dwell therein, to ''come out into the light of day," and be fellow men and fellow nations.

Commodore Perry's success possesses a double interest from the fact that it is coeval with the magic rise and expansion of a magnificent empire on these Pacific shores, and a triple significance as being cotemppraneous with the project of traversing onr continent with a giant railway. Here are thirty millions of than onr own have never had any commercial intercourse with the world, possessing a country of nearly 300,000 square miles, teeming with all the natural resources of agricultural, manufacturing and mineral productions, offered to ns for bur enterprise, ana a part of our mighty'and mysterious for the diffusion of our language, our ideas, republican travel wherever our ships go, and do so much to enlighten the mind and enrich the treasures of every port, and connect in a common brotherhood of civilization, the people of tbe -whole world. what is our first duty at this juncture! Is it not the construction of the trans-continental railroad! and before, by any physical possibility that can be done, the establishment of a line of government mail steamers, connecting this country with the islands of the Pacific, and the Japanese and Chinese This is the natural tendency of things.

Through these new channels of commerce, the millions who are now coming to our already popular borders from the realms of Europe, must find a field for their genius and enterprise in various'ways.

The war now; raging beyond Danube, will drive crowds of emigrants of the better classes, to our shores, yea hundreds of and it is onr duty to 'make some provision for them, and in no way. can it be done so effectually as by the establishment, as the initiative, of a line of steamers to the new empires now opening to our commerce, and the speedy construction of a railroad to tbe Pacific.

The little fellow had forgotten the head was there, and laid his arm in its mouth, which was instantly closed on it, and was only disengaged by pulling it off with his other hand, tearing a vein and an artery of his arm.

A gentleman was present who had a partiality for babies, and his innate sympathy with these helpless creatures, led him at once to.

the assistance of the clamant dame. He requested her to drop the cradle as gently as possible into his arms. She did so; but the process crushed his other hat into old age. That amounted to nothing in his estimation at the moment; but when he carefully lowered the cradle and found it to contain, instead of a baby; a tin pail filled with crockery, the way he ripped out his wrath was more remarkable for its emphasis than for its classicality.
