Meeting of the City Council The City Council will meet in annual session on Monday next at three o'clock, agreeable to the requirements of the charter.

There will be much business of an important character to be brought up for con-. sideration. The completion of the new jail, al- ready begun and In a forward state of progress; the further supply of water, in connection witix the recent condemnation of lands and water rights, and probably the construction of a new city hall, will be among the most prominent, and in which, the tax-payers are more deeply interested. The revision of the ordinances of the city which were not disposed of two years ago will also claioa attention. No provision having been made in ther building occupied by the officers of the city government, the old chamber will be occupied.

Fire. At eleven o'clock on Wednesday night fire was discovered in the feed store of Mr. Sip-pell, on Franklin street, near Eutaw. The fire originated in the cellar, but by the timely arrival a posse of officers from the western station the? flames were confined to that portion of the premises by placing barrels of corn over the flooring. The flames were put out by the firemen, after considerable damage to the stock of provender and premises, which were undoubtedly designedly fired.

The occupant suffered to the amount of $200, which loss is covered by insurance in the Associated Firemen's office. The building be-lorgs to Beniamln C. HowaTd. and ww 1858. American Ocean Steamers.

A recent American writer on ocean steam navigation siys that the United States have only fifty-seven steamers, measuring tons, while Great Britain has one thousand s'x hundred and seventy, with an aggregate measurement of 666 330 tons. We have tweiitv-two steamers, of tons, engaged in tbe foreign and domertic mall service," while Great Britain has one hundred and twenty-one, of 235.4S8 aggregate engaged in the foreign mail service almost exclusively. We have thirty-seven steamers engaged in the coasting trade, while she has one thousand five hundred and fortv-eigbt similarly employed. The steam mail service of Great Britain costs that government nearly six millions of dollars annually," while the direct returns in postage amount to very little above that sum.

Mrs. Neally, wife of David Neatly, residing in Columbus county, N. was brutally murdered by a negro boy, the property of Mr. N. It appears that the negro was working in the woids near a log-heap that had been prepared by Mr.

Neally for the purpose of burning to make ashes for domestic purposes, and Mrs. Neally had gone to put fire to it, and while at the heap, after she had fired it, the boy struck her down and dragged her on the burning mass of logs. Mrs Neally not returning to the house as was expected, he husband became and made sesrch for her; when he found her she was burnt nearly to a crisp, scarcely a particle of flesh remaining. The boy has been arrested and confessed the crime. Flowers BLewMiNo tn Winter.

Tbe Gospel Banner says: Chicago is a poor place for a Y'ankee. The climate gives him the ague fever; the water brings on diarrhea; the food, as cooked by the suckers, produces dyspepsy; the whisky, tinctured with strychnine, makes him crazy: or, if a temperate man, three per cent, a mor.th is sure to bring on tbe blues. Throughout the entire western country bome-sick men are ple'ntler than anything else. No more wise and prosperous men will emigrate thither by our advice.

There was considerable pressure for money at Valparaiso, but few failures had taken place. The Peruvian authorities bad committed another outrage aealnst the United States, having taken a sailor from the American ship T. B. Wales, and lashed him on a buoy for four hours, as a punishment for having struck a coolie on board the ship Wales. Captain Burr, of the Wales, protested against this outrage to the Peruvian commander, who, in a very insolent manner, told the captain that if he did not mind his own business he wo uld be put in the sailor's place.

The American minister at Lima was investigating the matter. LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM UTAH. Our advices from Great Salt Lake' city, by way of San Francisco, are to the Sth of November. The proposition to declare Brigham Young "Prophet, Seer and Revelator" of the Mormon people was sustained unanimously in the Tabernacle. The Desertt News of November 4th says: The company from Carson began to arrive on the 1st Irstant, and will probably all be in by the 3d This company, with a few exceptions, embrace all who were sent on foreign missions to that region; also, several from California and Oregon.

Mr. Bell, who, In company with others, left Salt Lake on the Sth of November, furnishes a California paper with the following: The force of the Mormons has been greatly over-estimated; almcst every available man has been enrolled. In passing through the settlec ments Mr. Bell found that the men generally had been called out to the mountains; and yet the whole force fell far short of 10,000 men. The winter has set in with severity.

In the city the snow was two inches deep, and in the mountains, where the Mormons were encamped, Jt must have been from six to twelve inches deep. The Mormon army was In a very poor condition, badly clothed, poorly armed, and with very little provisions. The families are represented as being in a suffering condition wanting in provisions and wood; the winter already commenced, and the men all called off to the camps. Mr. Bell's company bed passports from Governor Y'oung, but were only aked for them once.

It seemed as if intelligence had been sent ahead of them, and all knew of their journey tu California but at one station. Nevertheless, it was necessary, at each settlement to call on the bishop, hire an interpreter, and send them ahead of the company to treat with the Indians for their safe passage. By representing themselves as Mormons, using every precaution, and more particularly by the expenditure of over two thousand dollars among bishops, interpreters and Indians, the crnipany succeeded in making their way in safety. W'e have confirmation of the report that wascir-culattd at the time, regarding the company that was massacrrd some time since, that they suffer-ed at the hands of the Indians, in revenge for criminal indiscretions on the part of certain of their members. Small bags containing poison were found in springs, the water of which caused sickness and death among the Indians.

They mustered their forces, followed and massacred the whole party. With regard to the Indians east of Salt Lake, is more than probable that Col. Johnston hat propitiated them, and they will be found, if not on the side of the government, at least neutral. In case of resistance to the troops there Is every reason for confidence that Colonel Johnston will force the passage of the cannon, and make good his advance to the city. On the 8th of October Brigham Y'oung delivered a speech in the tabernacle In relation to the advance of the United States troops Into the Territory.

He said: As soon as they start to come into our settl e-ments, let sleep depart from their eyes and sluny-ber from their eyelids, until they sleep In death; for they have been warned and forewarned that we will not tamely submit to being destroyed Men shall be secreted here and there, and shall waste away our enemies in the name of Israel's God. In tnother paTt of the same discourse he says: Another year I am going io prepare for the wtrst, arid I want you to prepare to cache onr grain and lay waste this Territory; for I am determined, if driven to that extremity, that our ene-m'es shall find nothing but heaps' of ashes and ruins. We will be so prepared that in a few days all can be consumed. I shall request the bishops to see that the people in their wards are provided with two or three years' provisions. There is euoi gb'jalready raised in many places this season to sui ply the teople from two to three vears.

and I wish them to take care of it, though I expect that in all probability we will raise a great many rops before our enemies again come here to disturb us; and I expect that we are fully able to defend ourselves, and that our enemies will not be able to come within a hundred miles of ns. It would seem to be the intention of the Mormons, in the event of their defeat, to burn up and destroy everything in the Territory, and retire to some other place. It will be recollected that a very mysterious journey to the North was made by Brigham Young last summer. He took a large and well appointed train with him. and was absent nearly two months.

It is reported that be penetrated far into the British possessions on the north, and may have there settled upon a location for a future colony. Neither the object nor the result of that journey has ever been clearly explained 1h the Mormon journal. The Murder of a Father avt Mother by their Own Son. It was stated by telegraph a day or two or ago that Jared Comstock and Clarissa, his wife, had been brutally murdered Oy their own son, William a few miles from Hamilton, C. W.

It appears the scene of the tragedy was located in the wrong place. It occurred five miles from Hamilton, N. Y. The Utica Telegraph has the following additional particulars: The parricide is a man 37 years of age, about 5 feet 7 inches in height; bis clothing was besmeared with blood when found. He has always resided with bis parents in this town, and was unmarried.

He has been drinking hard for some time, and Js evidently laboring under the effects of mania-a-potu He conversed calmly in relation to the awful deed, jnanlfesting no concern for himself, speaking of the manner in which he deprived his parents of life, as if he bad been butchering hogs. He says for about four or five days something seemed to tell him that he must have a number of hearts; this was repeated to him many times during the day; he seemed to live in Sherburne, and a wire came over the hill, connecting with the room, telling him he must have a number of some one who lived in Sherburne seemed to telegraph for them. "Three or four days ago I attempted to kill my father to get his heart. Yesterday I went again, placed an axe in the room, intending, if I could find my brother and his wife sitting down to kill them both at once. It seemed as if I must have btth their hearts, but I did not find them so situated.

About dark I went over to my fathers, and found him and my mother sitting she was sewing. I Immediately struck her with the skillet on the head and broke it. I then struck my father over the head three or four times with the remains of the skillet, and attempted to get the ax. After knocking my father down, I got the ax and cut out their hearts, and putthem in the stove aedburned them. Thisvolce seemed to tell me that the hearts must be burned.

After the deed I washed my hands, and after remaining in the house a short time, left and went down to A. Gustin's. When I arrived I found my brother and his wife there, visiting I told them I had some fresh meat up to father's; after remaining there a short time, I went down to the house of Harmon Gustin and told them to get me a quart of cider and bottle; and after obtaining it, left for my father's bouse without mentioning anything concerning the deed On arriving I lay down upon the lounge, near my father and mother and slept for some time until near morning on awakening I left the house and met several persons coming towards it. I do not recollect who I had informed of the deed, pievious to this. As they approached me some one said "Here Is Bill." This was about eight rods west of my father's.

Thev asked me what I had been doing. I told them if was none or their business Part of the party held me, while a couple of them went to the house, and afterwards tbey took me to Potter's, where I was arrested. During the night, after the deed, I attempted to end my own life and thus close the tragedy. I afterwards went to my brother's house to kill him and his wife. I kicked the panels of the door In, but they bad pone away.

The coroner's jury in the case have rendered a verdict that the terrible deed was performed by the son. SoMETHiiiG of a Noise.

A Lost Husband Turned Up. His Interview with His Successor, The following is a counterpart to one of the principal Incidents in Reade's story of White Lies: In May, 1S55, a roan named R. M. Mellen, engaged in keeping a news depot In Chicago, left home after tea iu apparent health, and no trace of him could afterwards be found. All sorts of rumors were afloat as to what bad become of him.

It was supposed he had met withfoulplay, and the river was dragged for his body. Next (rumor originated the story) it was-supposed he wandered off insane, and was concealed in the woods near Belvidere, and hundreds of men turned out for the purpose of capturing him. Then a dead body was tound near Rock river, which many of his friends identified as his, al. though on this point there was considerable difference cf opinion. At all events, no trice of him could be found, after giving the police an infinite deal of trouble He left a wifa and one or two children, and about three weeks ago Mrs.

Meli-en, having mourned her hus-band's loss for three laid aside her weeds and got married to a ftlr. William H. Austin, a printer. Of a sudden she received a letter from Mellen, informing her of his intention to return heme, and hard upon its heels on Wednesday last he fallowed. He says he wandered away inafi'Gi insanity; went to Memphis, thence to New Orleans, and at lat to California, where he ensaged in various occupations.

Tee Chicago Tribune of Thursday morning concludes an account of the mat'er as follows: Mellen visited his wife, orrather Mrs. Austin, yesterday, and also Mr. Austin. The Utter re-fues point blank to give Mrs. A.

up. What the npsbot of the affair will be is not easily guessed. If both insist pon havinar possession of the lady, a very interestine lawsuit will doubtless be the result. Mrs Mellen, or Austin, did not obtain a divorce befor? her marriage with Austin. "What the real motive was which induced Mellen to abcent himself for so long a time he has not made public.

If it be true, as he states, that he was insane when he left, why did he not, when be recovered from his insanity, either write to his wife informing her of his whereabouts, or return home immediately?" Annual Review of the Whale Fishery. The New Bedford Shipping List pubiisies it annual review of the whale fishery for 1357, from which we collect the following: The effect of the financial pressure has been disastrous to the whaling interests, leading to a diminished consumption and a' reduction of prices below a profitable margin. The North Pacific fleet the past sason contained abont 150 vessels, being about 30 less than In the preceding year, tjhe average amount of oil to each ship, obtainedby 109 vessels of this' fleet arrived at the Sandwich Islands, Is 808 barrels, which is about the average of hist year. The importation of sperm oil is 2,500 bMs. less than in the preceding year, and that of whalebone 534,000 lbs.

The Imports of whale oil are 33,000 bbls. more than in 1B56. This arises chiefiy from the shipments made at the Sandwich Islands by vessels which continue their voyages, and therefore a diminution in the import for the coming year is expected of from 75,000 to 10'1, 0 1 bbls. of whale oil, and a corresponding decrease of bone. The average price of sperm oil during the year has been $1 SSJ per gallon, against $1 62 in 1858, and $177 2-10 in 1855.

The number of vessels employed In the whale fishery is 654; of which 587 are ships and irks, 19 brigs, ar.d 49 schooners, with a tonnage of tons. The number of whalers owned In New Bedford is 321 ships and barks, whose tonnage is 110.267. Of tbe wbole number of vessels em ployed in the whale fishery from the United States, there are owned in Massachusetts 4S1 ships and barks, 13 brigs, and 35 schooners; tonnage 101,446. A Desperate Prisoner At York, on Monday, four persons were arrested on a charge of creating a disturbance. One of them, named Fisher, made a desperate resistance, and assaulted High Constable Ruby and several citizens with a long-bladed knife, but without doing them any injury.

The York Republican says: It was with much difficulty that be was tied, thrown into a wagon and conveyed to jail. When he arrived thee he managed to get a bar of iron, with which he assaulted one of the keepers, injuring him semewhat. When in the cell he tore offthespiggotof the hydrant, which he threw with much force at those outside, who narrowly escaped feeling its weight He then broke up some of the wood work inside, with which he made a club, and swore he would knock out the brains of sny person who should enter the cell. His conduct was such that the sheriff ordered him be shot, and two balls were fired at bii. one of which grazed one leg, and the other bill took ef feet in the other leg.

He then submitted the ball was extracted, when he asked to see it, and swallowed it immediately! Sepoy Victims in England The Medical Times says: "It has become the fashion for certain writers to throw doubts upon the truth of the reports of the atrocities commited by the Sepoy mutineers upon our countrymen In India. It is said that these reports have come through native spies, have been colored by the Indian p'resj, and have not been authenticated by European testimony. How far these arguments are worthy of credit our readers may judge from the following statement We have been assured by a medical friend that he has been consulted by a lady who has recently arrived at Bayswater, from India, whese nose has been cut off Her child, three years old, has neither hands nor feet; they were all cut off bv the How the child sur vived is a mystery. The governess to this family escaped with the loss of her ears, which were cut off as an easy way of getting her ear-rings. Another friend is attending a lady whose nose has been slit open, and her ears have been cut off She has brought home to England three young children, all blind.

Their eyes have all beat, gouged out by the Sepoys. We have heard from another source, quite beyond question, (a lady who speaks from personal knowledge.) that there are several ladies now in CaIcuttawho have undergone such unspeakable degradation that thev obstinately refuse to give their names. They prefer to be thought of by their relations In England as dead. There are also in Calcutta several youag children whose names are quite unknown. One creature says she is mamma's and tha-is all we are ever likely to know of her pas.

history." Not a Joke When Mr. Thayer, in the House of Congress, in the debate on the neutrality laws, took the ground that Central America would be cOionized from the North and not from the South, and that, therefore.it would not add tothestrength of the latter section of the Union, a great many thought he was not entirely earnest in his proposition; but the New Y'ork Post sys that he has already commenced the organization of a company, which is expected to send enough emigrants into Central America within the year tofound twosub-stantlal seaports at either extremity of the Nicara guan route, and to put them into profitable relations with tbe agricultural interests of the interior. Mr. Thayer is experienced in this business, for he had a considerable share in colonizing Kansas, and recently established a colony in Virginia. The latter, however, la said to be a failure.

The Poor at Hudson City, N. J. It is reported that there are no less than five hundred poor people out of employment at Hudson city, N. at the present time, who are almost starving for want of the common necessaries of life. Most of these people, were employed on the Erie Railroad tunnel.

They reside in the huts in or about Hudson city, and for some time past have lived chiefly upon what they could steal. The residents of Hudson have been compelled to put bars and bolts upon every door in their houses, as these destitute people go around both night and day, and make off with whatever they can lay their hands upon L.OCAI, MATTERS. Mr-re Valuable Improvements There have just been completed for Messrs. John wing and John Horn, of York county, three handsome resident houses, in Calvert sf-eet. immediately north of Madison.

Tbey are 20 feet front, 44 feet deep, and three stories, basement and garret high. The basement fronts, all above ground, are painted in Imitation of brown stone, with while mar hie steps, while the upper fronts are of pressed brick. The windows on the main floor are after the French style, and open on a neat iron balcony, extending the whole width of the houses. The basement flocrs are divided into hall, dining-room, butler's pantry and kitchen, the latter being supplied with range and hot and cold water fixtures. On tbe first or principal floor are two large parlors neatly finished with rich comics and centre pieces of stucco work, and marble mantels.

The stairways, both front and rear, are finished with ork bannisters and cream-colored oak rail. The second floors have each two chambers, finished in a style to correspond with the main floor, while at the rear end of the hall is the bath-room and water-closet. The third floor is finished after the style of the second, except that the chambers extend over the whole width of the houses. In the garret are several rooms for the use of servants. Tbe houses throughout are finished with marble mantels, gas-fixtures and bells, while at the rear of the principal floors are spacious balconies.

From the upper floors there Is a fine view of the city, and fr a considerable distance down the Patapsco. There are but few improvements on the street beyond this point, and they present a har.dsorre appearance. They were designed and built by Mr. Michael Roche. The remainder of the square north of these houses is now being graded for further Improvements, and it is probable that within a short time that side of Calvert street to Eager will be entirely occupied by buildings.

Home of the Friendless. The third annual report of this society, embracing the year ending oa the 23d of November last, has been given to the public by the managers. From the report we learn that the society has provided itself with additional accommodations, which has greatly increased its usefulness. One death is reported to have occurred at the "Home," and several of the inmates have been provided with homes outside. The financial condition of the society is elucidated bv the following report from the treasurer Mrs.

Rhodes, No. 13 North Eutaw street, was entered through the front door by the application of nippers to the lock, and robbed of stock to the amount of SI, 000. One hundred pairs of long boots, cne hundred and fifty pairs of shoes, and one hundred pairs of gaiters were taken. Tha proprietor, who, with his family, occupies the upper stories of the building, locked up the store on Wednesday night, leaving the key in the loak Between torn and five o'clock he heard the burglars at work, but supposed thelnoise proceeded from another apartment, occupied by a lady, who was preparing to move out yesterday. Thus the burglars were undisturbed iu their operations, and yesterday morning, when the store was opened, it was discovered that the greater portion of the stock was gone from the cases and walls.

It is thought the goeds were packed in boxes and conveyed from the vicinity in a vehicle, as good of such bulk ccnld not possibly be carried through the streets, even at that hour, without exciting scspicion. The police have been placed on the alert, betas vet nothing has been heard of the gocds or the burglars. Missionary Labor The venerable missionary. Rev Thomas Freeman, for manyyears connected with the home missionary enterprise, has made his annual report, and as is usual has performed a large amount of labor. During the year he addressed 230 meetings, including Sabbath Schools, visited families, and gave tracts to and exhorted 3,000 drunkards and swearers.

In the prosecution of this work he walked 4,000 miles. He visited the penitentiary, jail, almshouse and house of refuge, and spent a considerable part of his time on the line of the railways leading from the city, among the laborers and on the canals, and among the sailors. He visited the Powhatan on the day of her sailing and distributed tracts to the seamen and marines. Since the winter begun he has been engaged in visiting the poor and supplying them with bread, blankets and shoes. The whole of his gifts are from a fund supplied by private contributions, and he has assisted many who would otherwise probably have suffered.

Launch. Yesterday afternoon there was launched a schooner from the ship-yard of Messrs Abrahams Sons, on Thames street. The vessel is four hundred and twenty-five tons burden, with a hundred and thirty feet length; beam thirty feet, and depth of hold eleven and a half feet. This schooner is somewhat extraordinary on account of her size. She is designed for the trade between Richmond and New Y'ork.

The following parties here have been engaged upon her: Lewis Wagner, joiner; W. A. Van Ostrandt, shipsmith; Hubbard Wood, blockmakers; Mullen Van man, carvers; Brown Robinson, riggers; Henry Boss, plumber, and J. H. Keener, "brass-founder.

The schooner has been named the "Wythe," after a county in Virginia. This vessel was built for David Currieand others.or Richmond, Va and is the fousteenth of the same class built by the same firm. Trouble Ahead. Some two years ago the commissioners for opening streets returned a condemnation of thoroughfare to extend aiong the line of the northern limits of the city, to be called North avenue, and the city commissioner contracted for the work of grading it, the most of which is nearly completed. The owners of the property on the line of the avenue now demur to the payment of the assessment for the work, on the ground that it is exorbitant, and on Wednesday evening a meeting was held and it was resolvedto resist the remand.

They also aver that the assessment is unequal and unjust. The matter will probably come before the court for adjudication, and in that event it will probably bs several years before it is settled. The city, however, will be resoon-sible for the work done. Run Over. A.n old gentleman, named Norjis, was knocked down and run over on Wednesday afternoon, at the corner of Saratoga and Eutaw streets, by a horse ridden furiously by a man, who seemed to have lost the control of the animal.

The fore feet cf the animal struck the breast of Mr. Norris, knocking him to the pavement, and his head coming in contact with the flagging, a severe contusion was the result. He was picked up, tie blood flowing in a stream from the wound, and carried into the Oulce of Justice Megee, on the corner of Saratoga street, where every attention was paid him. He was afterwards conveyed in a carriage to his home, on Madison st. After the above occurrence, the horse, still un-marageable, kept on up Saratoga street, and turning suddenly into an alley, came near trampling to dtath a little boy who was playing therein.

Appointment. We learn from Washington that the Secretary of the Treasury has appointed Maj Henry Brewerton, of Baltimore, superintendent of the repairs upon the Baltimore Exchange property, which was recently purchased by the government, to be altered and fitted for the uses of the postoflice department. Major Brewerton is known here as a most accomplished gentleman in the discharge ef dutltf heretofore confided to him. He has had undey his control the government expenditures connected with the building of Fort Carroll, and the deepening of the channel of the river out into the bay; and allhehasdonebasmet with the cordial approbation of those presumed to have the best knowledge of sach matters. Charge of Selling Liquor Without a License, and GambHng Kenry Smith, colored, was taken into custody on Wednesday night by officer A.

ANDERSON BT THE The Apinwall correspondent of the New York Times, under date of the 4th gives the following account of the surrender of the last of the filibuster: The most important news I have to communicate by this mall is the caDture by Capt. Sands, of the United States steam frigate Susquehanna, of the balance of the filibuster force under Col. Anderson, and their arrival of the 30th ult. at this port in the U. S.

war steamer Fulton. Capt Almy. This was the party which ascended the Colorado into the San Juan river and took possession of Fort Castillo. Capt. Sands, in the capture of this force, went to a still further extreme than did Commodore Paulding in landing on Punta Arenas, lie ascended the river San Juan into the interior of a foreign nation.

I will give you the facts as I have them from a high cfiicial source. Nicaragua and Costa Rica, in view of their common danger, It is presumed, came to an understanding on their differences, and sent four hundred men to San Carlos, at the entrance to the Lake, and one hundred to Castillo. Anderson finding- himself closely pressed aad likely to be more so, his stores being short, prepared the sttamer Oden, embaTked bis men on hT, and then wrote to Captain Sands, asking his views in regard to his surrender. Capta'n Sands replftd that he wss ready to receive him and his men, if they came and delivered up their arms. Subsequently, Anderson spiked his cnnon, burned all the buildings about Castillo, destroyed the mechlrery ef a steamer at the Kapids, understood to be the Virgin, and having killed all the cattle and plundered all the merchand'se within reach, started down the river.

Captain Sands came upon them under these circumstance, nine miles up the river, in the steamer Charles Morgan, full of armed men, and captured them witto it any resistance, of The Ogden was aed in charge Mr. Cottrell, United States consul at Greytown, who has alo charge of the Charles Morgan, until rightful ownership in them is shown Capt. Sands thinks there is a little irregularity la the extreme measurts he took, but a ne was sent out to break up the filibusters, he thought this course the shortest, and the one likely to save trouble and suffering on all sides The filibusters have been transferred from the Fulton to the Wabash, and the latter vessel sails with them to day for the United States, calling in at Boca del Toro and Greytown. Some twelve or fourteen of them ate sick from fever. The Fulton will remain in this port for the prfsent.

She has twenty-five men on her sick list, principally her working men, whose services she could scarcely do without at sea. and this is the main reason why she, instead of the Wabash, does not take home the filibusters. Daring the greater part of the time that the Fulton has "been-on this coast, the rains have been very heavy theneen much exoosed. time Capt. rriy laid eight days off the the Colorado, the rain falling two-thirds of the time In torrents.

Colonel Anderson explains the matter of breaking the machinery of a steamer In this way. He sasbe unscrewed the cylinder-heaja. packed it into a box, and took it into the woods and hid it, so that the "enemy" could not use the steamer, a he expected Walker might be able to return, and would want her himself. The following is a complete list of Anderson's force: Col. F.

It is argued by some peisons that the vote of the people at the last election approving of the payment of the State debt is void, and cannot legalize a debt which was previously legally void by reason of unconstitutionality. The Governor commenced to Issue the bonds as provided by the act requiring the vote to be taken, but he was stopped by injunction, and the matter has been carried to the Supreme Court. That tribunal will, probably, declare the debt to be legally binding.

The judges are not the same as those who declared it unconstitutional. The flection of chief engineer of the fire department of San Francisco was held on the 7th inst and resulted in the re-election of F. Whitney, formerly of Boston. He was supported by the Monumental Hcse Company, composed of Baltlmorear.s. Business at San Francisco was exceeding.
