iicrcy Liatbtics far lZZi. Onr Government and the Fenians. The Administration is taking pains to heap i. fiM tn thn heads of -nrland. During Gratitude of John HitclieL It is well known that John Mitchel was sentenced to be transported fourteen years from Ireland for making incendiary appeals, and trying to instigate rebellion among bis countrymen; he was sent, after conviction, first to the hulks of Letter trom San Francisco.

Oct. 25tb, 1855. Ma. EDrroa IVday, I received a length and ery interesting epistle from oar old friend i'otter-f-and knowing you to be a sopnd, high-toned -Union man, I naturally thought some. oC its contents would iilteest, you, and many thousands 6f your readers.

Folio ing is an extract 'I am still at Beaufort, but expect: to leave this for Charleston, S. soon, as we have received notice that we may expect orders to do so at any tiroe.t I am attached to the Con si Aunumu vt -l ifK SECRETARY Or" THE Sr Saturday, November 1805. Last week we published, without comment of eubecribcra to the Fc-iiiin Eocfety- late! organized in San I Cruz, ud at the same time copied an article from lb 'Pacific which rather IjarsMj criticised the Fenian, mad their oove mentis, generallT. ThU seems to be made the prcxt far a 'witti Jrawal of patronage, by that Soc'wty, from the Skxtixkl. So fur as their efoctti and aociatei effort are concerned, to injure oar business, we care bat littlo, and only vj-ite this to correct a false impression that may or may not be entertained that the senti-feertjs of the article were rc accordance with our i own Tie article waa copied becanse was true-ia truth fateest Acknowledged unprejudiced nainde 4o fact and import, to the tetter, and no Fenian can controvert Jt without violating the record.

At the time we published the extract, an editorial article was prepared embracing our riewrof the organization and the release of that notorious charlatan and traitor, John Ititchel. TbU article waa not published, for auRlctcnt reasons, although respectful and truthful, for good motire given Fenian, whom we connreled (in the absence of our partner) as to the propriety of publishing It; he advised tin, In a spirit of prudence, not to do so, aa some night put a wrong construction on its political tenor. We laid the article aside for no 'other reason, and whoever says otherwise speaks an uutruth. The article is misplaced or we should publish it this week. It was a' simple and con- ewe statement of the motives of the organization and the acta of the National Circle, more particularly in refcrance to their demand, and the President yielding, in the matter of John MitchePs release.

We also admonished them, in the kindest terms, of the hopelessness of their cause, generally reviowin the history of their now j-re lease idol (Mitchel), from the time he escaped the penal colony until he embraced the anse of slavery and rebellion In the South, and the second time betrayed the trust reposed in him hy government; during tliat j-ebcllion, Milchcl, Wins, Benjamin and others of thrir ilk distinguished themselves in the service of Jeff. Paris for malignancy of cowardly and refined cruelty and total depravity, and so far as their blunted intclcct would permit, had no equals outside of Richmond or the "prison pens" Andersonville and then after the leaders in a bad cause not even yet as hopeless as the Fenian movement surrendered, aud generally adopted the new state of affairs, he accepted the discreditable position (the lowest in the scale of intellectual employments), of editor of a copperhead newspaper. Such is Johu1 Hitch-el, and the Fenians, who are posted, most admit Yet they imperatively demand broom-ranger like In Grand Centre the apostate's release, and the President acceeds to it. ThU is the first authoritative act of the Feuians. Tlie article warned thera of the hopelessness of their cause and that, if not successful, of the terrible retribution, which would naturally follow defeat, under that Sepoy butcher.

General Hose. We concluded reminding them that the Fenians, without the open aid of the United States, bad not half the chance of success that was accredited to the South at any time during the late rebellion and that if they failed not I AVe have heretofore advocated the election of the above named gentleman, for Shaker of the Assembly. The Jndeperident, an. able Uniotfperv advances his claims in the following Th Legislatuse of California will taeet in a little over a month from this time, There will be an ovewhelming Union mnjority ia each House, so that the officers will all be- chosen from that side. We have been tn no haste to nominate any of these, though we have aa important to make 'and with respectful consideration for the claims of others, "we now do nominate C.

II. Chamberlain, an Assemblyman elect from San. for Speakership of that body. Mr. Chamberlain has every requisite qualification for the position.

Hi is a man of sterling character, above the suspicion of dishonor in politics or in any other matter of more than average legislative ability aa a speaker or worker: thoroughly conversant with every Interest of the State, in which he has we believe, constantly since 1849 recognized by all who served with him ia the Senate of 1861 '2 and 1802 '3, as a fine parliamentarian, and courteous, affable gentleman lawyer, who loves his farm a sound thinker, who has the rare faculty of making his thoughts and theories available ia active life, and above all, ft man who wears well and is most respected for bis talents and virtues where best known. Wo should like to see this man made Speaker of tha Assembly; and we are quite sure there is not a Union man in this part of the State who does not unite with us fn this wish. Should he be elected, the Assembly will have a presiding officer of quite as much ability, impartiality, courtesy and honor, as the the very best of his predecessors ia that position. I Office-seeking hai been for many years the especial evil in State politics, but more particularly in the politics of this State. Our nominee for the Speakership does not and never did belong to the rapacious fraternity of office-seekers.

In 18C1, having been a Republican for years preceding, of well known ability, he was singled out by tbe consolidated Union party of San Joaquin as their most suitable candidate for the Senate. The place was not of his seeking, as we very well know. He was triumphantly elected, and his Senatorial record was all that his best friends and admirers could bave wished to be an energeti9and conscientious performance of every public duty. He retired from the Senate to his farm and his studies and this year, when the Union party of San Joaquin cast about them for suitable rep resentatives in the Assembly, Mr. Chamberlain was always spoken of as about the best stick of timber in the county.

The question was, not whether ho could be nominated or elected that much was certain but whether he could be induced to accept the nomination. After repeated importunities thai matter was settled, and Mr. Chamberlain agreed to become a candidate. His abilities and force of as much as all other causes combined, enabled the Union party of San Joaquin to achieve the seven hundred and odd mijority by which (with but one; exception) the ticket was elected. We could, possibly, have elected any legislative ticket, but certainly not by anything like the nidjority which Mr.

Chamberlain was so efficient in obtaining. His rote can hardly be entirely accepted as a strict party vote. We have reason to believe that men of other parties as well as of the Union supported him, on the very sensible ground that he was "the right man in the right place," and that his honesty, loyalty and watchfulness were needed for the protection of the best interests of the county. Such public servants merit encouragement and promotion, and tbe people will always be the gainers thereby and for the foregoing reasons we respectfully nominate CiURLKs II. Chamberlain for the Speakership of the Assembly, pledging ourselves that if so chosen, he will honor the place." i The Senate of the Fenian Cokgkess.

New York, October 28. The Senate of the Fenian Congress reassembled at the Astor, the chair being occupied by the i'resident, Colonel V. R. Roberts. The session was strictly private, and the attendance was confined to members It is ascertained, however, that the principal business transacted related to the sale of bonds of.

tho future "Irish Republic," which ill be ready for delivery next week. Several members stated that they had received pledges from prominent citizens that they would subscribe- bonds in various amounts.

Kiaaberlain: A hasty glance at the statistical re-tn'rns of this county Jr 1865, ns compiled by the assessor of tEo county, has induced ii to transcribe for the information of readers a few of the "facts ismd fig ures" taat there appear. i-y reference to tfc-i instru meat wo find iha ntir amount of taxable property; of the county to amount to $1,050,285 43, of this $164,162 10, is real estate, $147,058 SO improvements, and 454,063 13, personal property There are 102,095 acres of land enclosed, of which 53,225 acres are under cultiratiob, and the residue, 18,870 are used as grazing Of wheat there were sown last year 3,283 acres producing 91,134 bushels; of barley there were sown ..18488 aeres, which' produced bushels; nearly 85 bushels to the acre: of Irish potatoes. 310 acres were planted, producing 24,860 -bushels; of beans, 6,012 bushel were raised from 170 acres; 978 tons of hay cut frdm 431 acres; and. 1,000 pounds of tobacco were raised, on one acre of land. The above enumerated are the principal articles of cultivation, antl as will be noticed the yield in barley far surpasses that in other 'Inere are 7,815 fruit-bearing apple, pear and peach trees, and 38,050 grape vines; the latter yielding 1,450 gallons or wine, la the stock record there is a great depreciation.

Of horses, there are not quite much cows, nearly whilo thd greatest falling off visible in the number of stock and beef cattle, of which there are registered 1 2,724. Of sheep we have in round nu bers 100,000 together with 1,300 merino rams, which have produced 402,188 pounds of wool. Next to this we have produced 17,932 pounds of butter, and 12,231 pounds of cheese, 2d, 904 dozens of eggs, and 6,130 pounds of boney; in audition to this we nave sent away 15,840 cord of wood, 1,013 barrels of whale oil, and 250 tons of salted fish. It will bo observed that our principal products are wool, grain, potatoes, egrs, butter, cheese and beef cattle. Our coun ty is well adapted to tho profitable production of all these, and we should look forward to a great increase in these products, during tho ensuing season.

No county in this State can boast finer grain growing or -grazing lands, and it is to them we must look. The raising of sheep has been attended with great success and had it not been for the late dearth they would no doubt have summed up a much larger figure than they do. The same lands are equally available for milctTcows; and the production of butter and cheese. This branch of industry is receiving a great Impetus by the influx of a number of experienced and energetic dairymen, who bave settled on the Salinas and will devote their attention to the business, so that in the next returns we may look with confidence for a large increase in this branch. -Monterey QazttU.

National" Thasksgivixg. -The President has issued his Proclamation, for a National Thanksgiving and Prayer on the first Thursday of December, (the to be held throughout the United States, as follows: "By the President of the United States of America hereas, it has pleased Almighty God, during tho year is now coming to an end, to relieve our beloved land from the fearful scourge of ci vil war, aud to permit and secure the blessings of peace, unity and harmony, with a great enlargement of human liberty; and whereas, our. Heavenly Father hits also during the year graciously averted from us the calamities of foreign war, pestilence and fntnine, while our granaries are full of the fruits of a successful season and wheras, righteousness exalts a nation, while fin is a reproach to any people bow, therefore, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, do hereby recommend to the people thereof that they do set apart and observe the first Thursday of December, as a day of national thanksgiving to the Creator of the Cni verse for these deliverances and blessinsTand I do farther recom mend that the whole people make confession of onr national sins against uis infinite goodness, and with one heart and one mind implore the Diviue guidance in the ways of national holiness and virtue.

It is announced that the first; number of a new paper, to be called the Iruk People, will appear in this city to day. Mr. Jerry Sullivan, an enterprising American news dealer, is the publisher, On good authority we announce that 'tho notorious Felbr, O'llyrne, fex-editor of the Ameru can Flag newspaper, is to be the editor of this new aspirant for public support. O'Byrne, in April last, was an active participant in the mob that destroyed the Monitor office, according to the evidence of our own IIo wore then the unifurm of an. officer of tho United States army, which has beeitsince stripped from his body for reasons that would cause any man of common decency to hold down his head with shame, -h-; The "Irish people" in California and on the Paci Gc coast generally, indignantly repudiate tho" idea of O'Byrne, who has brought only discredit on, the Irish name, to them in any respect.

So with other armed ships and transports of supplies to the States. While America was compelled to recognize the fact that Lord Russel did not go oeyona tne letter of the law, Still we saw all tho while the promise of neutrality was kept to the ear and broken to the hope.

A number of enthusiastic gentlemen have formed associations, call themselves re nians. and occasionly make speeches about the liberty of Ireland. In addition to other amusements, we are told that they are engraving pic tures with inscriptions, ana mat tnese pictures properly legended are called the bonds for the new Irish Republic We never imagined that these demonstrations would amount to any thing more than the demonstrations of bodies of men, who insist that they are Indians, and brothers, and sons of Rechab, and warriors of the tribe of Gideon. There is no reason why a number of Irish gentlemen 'should not call themselves Fenians, and if they want to make speeches about freeing Ireland, or any subject of rhetorical suggestiveness, whose business is it? It-never annoys us. We rather like it, for Irishmen are unsurpassed as orators, and never speak to better advantage than when talking about the green flag, and the harp, and the Saxons.

These gentlemen have talked so loudly that England has heard, and a newspaper has been seized, and every suspicious person who lands in Ireland from American ships is rudely searched by the police. One rebel captain has been put in jail as a dangerous Fenian, and many other arrests have been made. The English fleet is now in Bantry Bay, ready to capture auy ship or ships that arrive from New York with Fenians and guns on board. Societies have been broken up, and the priests are thundering at Fenianism from every pulpit. The Loudon Timet states that the information upon which these arrests were made was furnished by the Washington Government.

This circumstance shows what coals of fire Mr. Seward is determined to heap on England. That covntry was our greatest foe when we were in trouble now when trouble threatens its possessions, wo shall be its best friend. We have no doubt the credit of unvailing the movements of tbe Fenians should be given to Col. Baker, our, Government detective.

England sent us the Alabama we return by telling her that such and such people are Fenians, and to be surely eaged, If that Government is not heartily ashamed of herself, then, indeed, has every sensitive feeling left the English breast. -Xew York Tribune.

It is strange that men who do not know how to dig a post-hole, plant a hill of beans or drive a two pony tandem, will insist on instructing print-era and editors, who have spent their lives in the "art preservative," how to print and edit a paper. The truth is none but those Mho labor from boyhood up, are equal to the task, and competent to take charge of and publish a successful newspaper.

He afterwards started an incendiary newspaper in New York, called the (which lived but a short time), a file of which we have on band.

In No. 1 of the Citizen, dated Febrnary 18th, 1854, John Mitchel, the escaped "Ticket-of-Leave Man," congratulates himself, in the past tense, as follows: "With public opinion in America the Editor of the "Citizen" now feels himself to be quits. When he landed on the shores of this Republic, all he sought, all he wanted in America was a shelter from his enemies; and this was quite sure to be accorded him. But this was not all. Not only refuge for the hunted exile, but ready and unreserved sympathy with his cause-hearty, kindly good will to himself appreciation only loo partial of his.talents, his character, his services: and very much of all this (as he is happy to believe) sincere and genuine; the said Editor confesses that it was all very pleasant; and that for three weeks he had a "good time." Tlie thing even seemed quite natural.

It is not strange that an American should feel a pride in being the citizen of the only country on earth tliat dares open its hospitable door to tlie enemies of any and all lings and queens. Neither is it a matter of wonder that the descendants of colonists who flung off the intolerable British yok'e, after a bloody struggle, should feel some sympathy with a land which still bonds and groans under the same yoke; nor that a verdict found by a monarch's picked and packed "jury of slaves, prononncinsr a rebel and republi can to be a "felon," should from republicans, aud from the sons and heirs of rebels, meet a prompt and scornful reversal.

to wit The Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands; and my friend and namesake, Andy Johnson, myself, aud some other patriotic individuals, are reconstructing these Southern States that were lately ia rebellion, upon ft Democratic Republican basis, and so soon as we get things to suit ourselves, and are sure the people are capable of taking care of themselves, and are fit to be received into decent society as States, then we shall accept them as such not before. 'Tis true there are but very few discontented spirits even now, to what one would expect to find, and they are mostly among that class of people who never bore arms under the Confederacy such as the clergy and other exemptsbut who done more than any other class to bring about the rebellion. But a little time will fix things all right for most of tbe better class of southern people are content to take things as they are, and make the best of it, without any further trouble, while the poor whites, who never knew what they, were fighting for, are mostly settled on small farms, and are in far better circumstances, than they ever were before, with something to hope for and tbe negroes are rapidly and joyfully adapting themselves to tho ew condition of thing some by planting on their own account, others by working on shares in fact in almost every variety of way, 88 suits the taste or ability of the individual. Over the. freedmen and refugees the Frecdmen's Bureau exercises jurisdiction.

All contracts between the freedmen and their employers are arranged by an agent of the freedmen's bureau, and care is taken that strict and impartial justice is done between man And man. No contract is allowed to be made for more thau twelve months. Again, to all who desire, farms of forty acres are allotted, at a mere nominal rent, with the privilege of purchasing at ft valuation any time within three years. Meantime the Government assists" all who are really needy with rations, at cost, and farm implements, taking security on the crops when they come in for payment. There are now on these Sea Inlands, alone, more than 000 negroes and freedmen cultivating farms, mostly under the patronage of tbe Government, and probably the amount will be not less than 300,000 next year.

Whoever lives to see the year of our Lord 1870, if he visits this southern country, I predict will witness a change in the character of the country that will astonish the most sanguine. Where one pound of cotton has been grown, two will be produced and so of every other article of produce. These States are prolific in everything to make them great. All they waut is Yankee enterprise, capital and free labor, to make them one great garden. Free labor we have and the enterprise and capital are accumulating.

The trade already between the North and the South is immense. Fourteen steamers are now plying regularly between the cities of Savannah and New York, while nearly as many are running between the latter city and Charleston. In fact the whole country is striving to help itself, and it is bound to win. Ttpo. On Sunday last I strolled over tire city for the purpose of witnussiiig the effects of the late earthquake and, although 1 knew that considerable damage had been done, I xvas astonished to see the extent of it.

A vast amount, of brick work hai been shaken some more, somo less, but the aggregate foots up a very considerable amount. But, as Toots says, in Domliey Son, "it's of no will soon be all right again, despite of the grumblings of old Mother The as you have doubtless heard ere this, did not destroy all the whaling fleet of the north of which fact we have had ocular demonstration by the arrival in our harbor of two or thre whalemen from that locality within the last few days, two of them are about to sail for New Bedford, with good cargoes. There is very little news of moment stirring here at present writing. Fall trade is coming up hlowly, but the prospect is good for a healthy business. Our amusement vorkl is quite lively at present.

Wheat leigh, at the Metropolitan, is still runuirrg Arrah-no Fogue to crowded -bouses to-night being the twenty-seventh night of its representation a hitherto unparalleled in the annals of California theatricals. Ma guire's Opera House is also experiencing a "revival'' through the advent of Mr. Bandmann, the anglo-Gorman actor, lis (is "lengthening out" Hamlet to an indefinite number of nights, and draws well on each successive -occasion. Dan. Satchell (so the papers say) has leased and opened the Academy of Music, with a good company, and is doing well.

I think Maguire is the responsible party ia thts enterprise. Alack and alass Notwithstanding the earthquake did not accomplish the demolition of a theater in this the band of man is doing so, with a vengeance. The Grand Concert, given on last Wednesday evening at the M.T.E. Church, passed off very pleasantly, and we arc informed was a success. Mrs.

Gcorgianna Leach and her amateur assistants deserve praise for their efforts. We have seldom heard better singing than on the occasion. Agriccltckai, Papers. We are indebted to W. E.

is made from linseed oil, converted by some chemical action into a jelly, quite. like rubber, and is said to be impervious to acids and water. half the leniency would be "shown them by Gen. liose, that President Johnson is exercising toward Southern rebels; England would not swear an Irish rebel and let him go, John Mitchel has verified that fact, in his fourteen years transport tauon. or this considerate, truthful, and hu mane appeal, certain hot-headed bigots would ostracise us, and in their blind zeal for a hope- la cause, endeavor to coerce the press into the adoption of their agrarian views thev deny us the right to think for ourselves and defy all op position uuuss couehed in words suited to their notions of what constitutes a republican freeman such as.

Win, Benjamin, Mitchel, Trenholm, and other great American patroitn, who left their country for their country's good." We hare a sublime contempt for such men, but not a tithe of what we have for the Fenian who would seek to destroy a public ne wspaper which failed to urge, at this time, another rebellion and more bloodshed especially those who were southern rebels or northern copperheads during oar late struggle for National lifo and universal liberty. Thpse who honestly with us on the sub-'ject we pity, far "they know not what they do," being iu the hands of demagogues who are leading them On, step by step, to certain destruction, through the means of a secret political Society, organized for rebellions purposes. But Fenianism is deeper and more dangerous than would at first seem, it goes back to the base of society and religion, in the abstract sense, yet finds no resting place there. The Koniisb Churji is against it, as is well from Several "Bulla" of the Tope recently published. it is out a tew months since a great stir was made because the Cathofio Priest, in Oak-lind, refused to allow Christian burial to a Fenian, and even prevented toe members "entering the church, in regalia.

Ia FrancUco, the Fociety is strong, while its deadliest enemies are the firmest friends of Archbishop. Alemany. In Ireland the oinjodty of the Priesthood against it as well as the Catholic press, generally well knowing the cause hopeless. The Monitor, published in San although not the organ of the worthy Archbishop, speaking ft Catholic sentiment, respectfully opposes it, end while abusing Felix O'Byrne'for starting ft Fenian CTryaw, praise John Mitchel, as adventurer, infinitely lower, and in every respect a viler and more dangerous "man than the; re-noaned Felix, because morela'ented. It is in no ungenerous spirit that we write b'ut ouiy toeautioj tlie heedless ami1 ad- mor.ish ths cwny to keep clear of "entangling alliances? and the rebeUiou attempts Ireland, for they wiU surely be brought to grief.
