He hu left Monterey already, and will advance on Victoria State of Mama-ulipe. jbe fort of Perate, on the Vera Crux road, hu been placed in first rate defense, and is well garrisoned.

Gen. Zangosa is commanding on this line, and has collected 22,000 men. Gen.

They bung a mad by on leg for a whole night, till bo paid $1,500, and another by ou finger till he paid $100. Deplorable accounts are given of the condition of affairs on lower Fnier river, -scarcity of provisions, merchants are out of everything. The trails are black with men and animals poshing northward, without the lust chance of supplying one-half the number with food. But few mu had reached Cariboo, and a scarcity wu feared there. Hothing had ben done at Cariboo np to April 6th.

Weather extremely cold. Coloxil Bins. As we have noticed at different times, since that gutiamaa arose to the Colonelcy of the Second Cavalry," 'newspaper paragraphs, hints, and have even heard It openly alleged that he wu not at heart true to the Government under which he holds his commissi ou, we take the present opportunity to refer to some of the causes for such imputations which have been so maliciously put in circulation in relation to CoL Sims. Although he hails from Los Angela, we hold that there is none who have their country more at heart; we challenp the proofo for such assertions. The CoL no doubt hu fruits which are incident to all humanity, but withal active, firm, and uuwerving in his opinions, and is possessed of undaunted courage; thia his most bitter enemies will CoL Sims is too well known here, as elsewhere in California, to require a written biography to Illustrate his fitness for the service of his country.

He hu always bun found opposing the political misrule which well-nigh ruined California; his opposition to a strong wing of that fretion in this county is marked with features, by his enemies (secessionists,) sever to be forgotten. Col. Sims was, from the first war-whoop raised by the 8outh, among thou whose posi tion was defined by the organisation of a Union Club in this place; wu president of that organisation from the beginning, and ever held good frith in it a Union man, as we believe all living members will bear witness. Being of Southern birth, wu ofcounethe more bitterly despised by secessionists. Since his appointment to the position of Col.

be hu been the dread of secessionist here. Woo betide their cause if circumstances in army movements had placed him at home amongst aiders and abetters of treason practiced here. Through fear that the 8econd Cavalry would be sent to Los Angeles, no time wu lost in throwing obstructions in the way. Secession influence wu applied through various pretended Union channels laid for the purpose; in the meantime the Colonel has been placed in a position demoralising to an active mind; his regiment scattered from Washington Territory to the Gila River, with head quartets at San Francisco where its commander hu remained ever since the organisation, closely watched by hit enemies here who, in the failure of well matured plans laid, for his destruction, hoped to seen self destruction by impetuosities, to which his enemies were almost certain he would be driven if it were possible to keep him inactive. As an evidence that the late commander of this Division, Col.

J. H. Carleton, hu played a conspicuous part in the attempted destruction of this fine military corps, hit treatment of that portion of it 2d cavalry) sent here is the but proof. It wu here that the idea to disband it wu conceived; through CoL Carleton this object wu to have bun accomplished, bnt a timely discovery thwarted the plan and forth Sr action ceased. Every effort is' now being made to establish opposing political parties upon two extremes, abolition and democratic, the latter to be led by secessionists, who have undertaken the formation of both, and the destruction of CoL Sims, formerly an ardent supporter of Douglas' principles, is among the first objects to be accomplished in order to commence adhesion between the two wings of the former democratic party of California in this section of the State.

CoL Sims, it is well known is not of that class of men who woald fall an ea-pray to the attention and courtesies of a bewitching circle here, under whose representations so many have been deceived. Hence the rise of malignancies against him. SALT! SO TONS PUBS LOS ANGELES SALT! ON HAND AND FOR SALE By N. A. Potter.

During thu put winter while the troopa were coaitantly arriving at Baa Pedro, and being quartrred in thia vicinity, in the abeence of money with which to defray the incidental eipeneea it became aecea-ary to create almoet innumerable email bilU) hr which the uaal toucher wu given. We now bur, einee nearly the whole of the troope hate left for Port Yuma, that many complain that iqjutiee lice eomewhere, they hate neither receited a properly allowed account, and are not able to ihow to the partlea who were placed in charge of the Com miliary Department proofo which will entitle them to receite anything tor inch claimi. How ii thief It if well known that there hu been little or no money paid ont on account of the abote named department, and if thou who became the ereditora of that department do not mierepreient matteri tome trace or evidence of indebtedneii ihould be found in theQuar-termaitera office. Ai moit ofthe reqniremente for the um of the troope while they were quartered here were procured under the immediate order of CoL Carieten, it would not be atrange if it were found that many traniactioni had nerer eome to the knowledge of the proper of-fleer. We hare heard of one iuetance in which tome allowed account were lent to Ban Francisco for collection, hot were returned here with an accompanying atatement that money (aome $50,000) to pay ail indebtedness incurred in the Quartermaitera Department for thia military division had been sent to Los Angeles, where all each indebtednei against the Government would be paid.

We have yet to learn of the payment of a single item, unless it hu been done on the.ily, and that to sympathisers with the rebellion, as they have shared chiefly in the awards for (famishing the troops; they mqy have received their pay a number of the above mentioned parties are now with the moving expedition, as we learn, and, the money on its arrival at Camp Drum, Hew Ban Pedro, was immediately forwarded to Fort Tama. How the troops at Fort Ynma have been supplied from this place and San Francisco; the troops below having been already paid off by the Pay muter for the army, the question at once arises amongst Government creditors to why the money wu thns carried away, leaving Indebtedness here of a number of months standing. Is it possible there were debts in that locality of longer standing? or that the above mentioned sum wu sent along to defray the traveling expen-ses of the expedition, while there it little or no chance to incur uyf The expedition it well supplied with an abundance of everything, ud the money may he a part of the outfit, but to long money is the component In chief of business, those who credit the Government will think strangely of such proceed-inp are hero referred to, unless followed by some satisfactory explanation emanating from the proper source; no explanation hu yet been made, further thu appears by the above intimation; that the money had been sent to Los Angelas. We kuw it is not here. 8ncL Testerday morning, CajpL Winnie of the Second Cavalry, committed saicido at the Bella Union Hotel, ie this city, by cutting his throat with arasor.

The Captain has been, wu supposed before his death, not in his right mind, bnt appeared calm and rational, and a stranger would not have believed that anything affected bis mental faculties. On the evening previous to committing the rash act, he conversed until a late hour with CoL Forman, and the CoL requested the barkeeper ef the hotel to go to Cept. Winnie, and take his weapons, if he had saeh, it wu a rule that BO gentleman should retire to his room with weapons. The barkeeper did nad wu told ly theCapAthathehad Bene. About Oclock yesterday morning, after having been to the doer of the room several these, and finding it locked, the elerk of the hoese looked in at the window, and a bssrlbte right met his gene.
