The steamship Cherokee arrived at New York oa Satuiday everting, with two weeks further news from California, the papers from San Fran cisco being to the Ist of October. The Cher okee has on board an immense number of pas sengers, and $2,200,0UU in gold. The personal property insured by the City of San Francisco, at '.lie present time, is seventeen millions seven hundred and forty-five thousand d ol !ar* - The Steamer Oregon, from San Francisco for Panama, took millions of dollars on her manifest. Great rejoicing had taken place at San Fran ci-co at the last trip of the Nicaragua route — Messrs. (ire gory & Co., having delivered their passenge.fs in twenty-seven days from New \ urk. HIOT AT CHAGUES. —Loss OK !.IKE.—A terrible fight occuted at Chagre, just before the sailing of the Cherokee, between the Native and Ameri can boatmen. The Americans were beaten and fled, when the Native turned and beat all the A mericans in their way. Fifteen or twenty passen gers from California, on their way to the steamer, were driven hack. Five are known to have been kiiled. The other passengers fled, taking refuge in the houses, which they barricaded.— They finally got on board the Cherokee, through the courtesy of the commander of the British steamer, who took them otf in his own boats.— The specie was also taken ott'in the British boats. Messrs. Adams & Co's., messenger, with ail their despatches, was left behind, and it is feared that he was killed by the Natives. The returns of the late election show ma jorities for all the candidates on the Democratic ticket, ranging from one to five thousand. John Bigler is elected Governor by about fifteen hundred majority. Marshall and McCorkle are elected to Congress by heavy majorities. The Vigilance Committee w ere directing their efforts to prevent the emigration of convicts, especially from France, which seems to be threatened. The Indians were committing unparalleled out rages upon the emigrants on the Columbia river. The family of Hudson Clark, of Illinois, was attacked by a band of thirty Indians, his mother and brother murdered, his sistcc dangerously wounded, and afterwards ravished by the w hole party. .Mr. Miller, of Western Virginia, had also been attacked, his brother-in-law, .Mr. Jackson, killed, and his daughter and himself wounded. Two other trains had been attacked, but the Indians were repulsed. The utmost excite ment prevailed in consequence of those out rages. [From the San Francisco Post, Oct., I.] Since the sailing of the last mail steamer, the result of the recent State and Congressional elections had been so far ascertained as to se cure the election of the entire Democratic State ticket and the. two Democratic candidates for Congress. The Democrats claim an average majority of 1.000, but we do not think it will reach that figure. The Legislature is largely Democratic. From all parts of the State wc have the most encouraging intelligence of the success of the miners, and we hazard nothing in saying that the present yield of' the mines exceeds that of any former period, The season, so far, has been very favorable to the success of the various damming companies through the State, and the result has he on large yields in the department of mining. The prospects for the approaching rainy season are still more encouraging. During the dry season, great numbers of miners, •who have been operating along the heads of creeks and rivers, have been engaged iu raising dirt in the dry diggings to w ash when rains af tord them the requisite supply of water. Besides, a steady business is now being prosecuted by the various quartz companies, particularly in the vicinity of Nevada City, and along the tributaries of the San Joaquin. These companies will he able to prosecute their labors as well in the rainy as in the dry season, ft may be well to remuik that the quartz business appears to be that which, to a considerable extent, is attract ing the attention of capitalists as a source of investment. The extensive outlay for costly machinery in order to prosecute this branch of mining successfully, necessarily limits it to those who have accumulated the requisite capital by other and cheaper modes of mining, and to those other capitalists who are ready to make heavy investments. In the political world, the great point of in- , terest just now is, as to who will be the United ! States Senator in place of Col. Fremont. The j Democrats have many candidates; among whom ; may be numbered Col. Winn, T. J. Henley, | Col. Weller, Hon. David C. Broderick, Hon. j Nathaniel Bennet—Col. Fremont having retired j from political life, as we hear. These are all | the democratic candidates we hear of. The capital of the State has recently been j removed, by order of the Governor, from Val- j lego to San Jose, the former seat of Govern ment. This was done in consequence of a non- . compliance with the bonds of Gen. Vallego, as J is alleged, which were taken at the time of the : removal. The city is rapidly spreading, and now presents that massive appearance which always disiiri- I guishes a city from a village. Many large and elegant brick and stone buildings have been erected since the lires of May and June. The burnt districts may be said to have been built up again. Trade is reviving and the prospects are ; encouraging, it is to be hoped that we may escape the ravages of tire hereafter. Society, also, is undergoing great and grati fying changes. Every steamer brings an acces sion to the number of American ladies, and j school houses and romping children have already ccascd to he novelties in our midst. FOIIEIC* HEWS. ,\>tr Vend;, War. 2. —The steamship Franklin, from Havre and Southampton, at lived at 12 ! o'clock this morning. She brings four days | later advices from all parts of Europe. The most interesting news contained in the . English papers, has reference to the excitement relative to the gold discoveries in Australia, arid ; the unpromising aspect of affairs at the Cape of Good Hope. The business of removing the goods from the Crystal Palace was proceeding with extraordi nary rapidity. Prince Albert had written auto- | graph letters of thanks to each of the foreign i ('ommivsioncrs. When the Franklin left, Kossuth had not ar rived at Southampton, but he was confidently expected from Gibralter in the steamer, due on the 21th. 't he inoit extensive preparations were being made in Southampton to give him a hearty and enthusiastic reception. At Manchester, in consequence of the decline of the Liverpool cotton market, and the absence , of a revival in the Indian markets, there was considerable depression. At Nottingham there hud been a good home trade, but a pause in the export market. The prospects of the Iron trade were more favourable. At Mark Lane on the 20th, the Corn Market w.is dull, and prices with difficulty obtained. — In foreign grain-, the market was fiat, and .'lO,- ! 000 quarters had been re-sold for re-exportation to Holland and Belgium. Indian Corn for Ire hud, was in good demand, at six to nine per r 'om ter advance. English Flour met a tolerably tree >ale, but French and inferior marks were dull. Foreign Barb v unaltered. Teas scarce. Beans lower in price. Low qualities of foreign Grain, were in good demand' Mrs. fanny Ketnble was thrown from her horse with great violence on the 20th, at Brigh ton, but fortunately sustained little injury. One hundred and sixty inmates of the work house at Newton, Ireland, have been sent to Dublin, on their way to America. France. —The ministerial crisis in France re mains as it was at the close of the last week, much being predicted and conjectured, and 1 it tern! ly nothing known or done in the meantime, expecting perhaps some very limited excite ments and disquietudes in some of the provinces, which are not at all affected by the present crisis. Spain. —From Madrid we learn that the Queen of Spain had addressed an autograph letter to the inhabitants of Cuba, expressive of her grat itude for their conduct during the invasion by the American pirates. Letters from Athens announce that the Gre cian Archipelago was at last cleared of the pi rates that had so long infested it. Negros, the chief buccaneer, had been killed, and his band dispersed. The C'n riere Mercantile, of Genoa, states that a scries of measures are in contemplation to in corporate Tuscany, dc facta, with the Austrian empire. Germany. —The king of Hanover is seriously ill, and the Duke of Cambridge, his nephew, has been summoned to Hanover. There is little hope of the King's recovery. clustria. —The accounts from Vionna state that the Austrian minister at London has re ceived instructions from his government to break otf all diplomatic intercourse, if Lord Palmcrston should grant an audience to Kossuth. The new Governor of Hungary, Archduke Albrecht, lias been received by the people of Hungary with the most extraordinary demon strations of joy. Triumphal arches were erec ted and flowers strewed along his way. Our latest telegraphic advices from Vienna, state that the Congress had assembled there, to originate measures to l'ac.iliate communications between the different nations. Egypt. —The political difficulties which threa tened to prevent the construction of a railway between Alexandria, Cairo and Suez, have finally been removed by the restoration of a mutual understanding between the Sultan and Abbas Pasha. NEW ORLEANS, NOV. 2d — Reported Capture and burning of AJataniora*. —The steamship Fanny has arrived from the Bio Grande bringing dates to October 30th, being six days later. The at tack on Matamoras by the Revolutionists com menced on the 21st and on the 23d Caravajal had possession of the city within four squares of the Plaza. The Government troops still held out, but had suffered the loss of 150 killed and woun ded. The Revolutionists lost but three men in cluding Capt. Ford, who commanded a company of Texan Rangers. Geirl Avola was wounded during the engagement. Orders had been issued by the Mexican Commander to give no quarters to the Americans. Mr. Langstroth, formerly of Philadelphia, doing business at Matamoras, has been killed. The City was set on fire on the 23d and the custom House, together with other buildings, were consumed. On the 25th Mr. Devine.'s stores were also set on fire and con sumed, and the American Counsul wounded. All the troops destined to reinforce the Ameri can army oa the Rio Grande left here this morning. PACK'S ELECTRIC KMCI.VE —Professor Page lias sent his Electric Engine, constructed at the Smithsonian institute, under the patronage of Congress, to .New York, where it is to ho tried this week. There is no doubt something in this discovery of Professor Page, and the period is not far distant w hen we may hope to realise the full benefits of it. This Engine, though with an inadequate battery, generates and exerts a force of over six-horse power which costs, under the imperfect adapflbns, about twenty cents per hour, or §2 for a day of ten hours.— There is no doubt however, that the cost will he redueexj and the clliciency of trie machine de cidedly increased. The immense power of the Magnet, as developed by Professor Page's ap paratus, exceeds all preconception. A small crow-bar touched to or held near a smooth iron piston, around which a long magnetic wire ha> been coiled, is attracted with tremendous force on the application of a wire connecting the coil with a battery, so that it cannot he wrenched away by an ordinary man's best exertions.— This engine will go. GRF.TNA GREEK*.—A law exists in Virginia which is somewhat onerous on those matrimo nially disposed, requiring the candidates lor the hymetiial bands not only to take out a license before the ceremony can be performed, but also to go before the proper officer and give bond that the commonwealth shall riot become charge able with the support of the issue of the union. To avoid the publicity and inconveniences aris ing from a compliance of this law is often an object with parties, and to etlect it a Gretna Green is made of the bridge at Harper's Ferry, which, spanning the Potomac from Maryland to Virginia, affords a neutral territory on which the rites can he solemnized without a compli ance with the laws of either State. Two of these marriages took place on the bridge last week, the Rev. Geo. D. G'henowith officiating, and Mr. G. W. Kulster and Miss Sarah Burlv. and Mr. J. F. Misner and Miss Sarah Pates, forming the matrimonial parties. .7 gut. and Fever on the Mississippi. —The St. Louis Republican of the 23d says There has not, within the knowledge of the settlers on the Upper Missouri, been such a general prevalence of ague and fever as during this fall. Wc cros sed the Missouri at old Fort Kearny into lowa, and from thence down through Missouri to St. Joseph, (and the country is populous,) we scarcely found a house or family that was not alllicted with the disease, or typhoid fever in some shape or form. Whole families who have for years enjoyed uninterrupted health, were prostrated with the disease. The mortality, however, was not great. Everywhere there were complaints of the lack of what is regarded as the main remedial agent in this disease— ' Quinine.' Any price would have been paid for it, but none to be had. The prevalence of this disease is attributed to the long-continued high water in the Missouri and its tributaries. A MAN SHOT FOR A TURRET. —William Hite, residing five or six miles from this place, and his brother John, one morning last week, were in the woods hunting turkeys. William was crawling among the bushes making a noise in imitation of a turkey, which hunters denominate " calling." John, some distance off, seeing the stir in the bushes and hearing the noise above alluded to, shot, and the ball struck his brother on the back part of the head near the ear, but did not penetrate the skull. It was afterwards extracted, and we are informed the accident is not likely to terminate fatally. Wc advise hunters to have a clear view of their game before they shoot.— Huntingdon Journal. NEW COUNTERFEIT. —The public are caution ed against new counterfeit notes on the Philadelphia Bank. They are letter ' A,' va riously tilled up. The general appearance of the note is not good ; the medallions and the faces of the females in the vignette are imper fect. Two commas between the names of ' Un derwood & Bald and Draper & Underwood,' arc omitted. Thedols between the words ' Five Five,' on the upper and lower margins are oblong in the good notes and square in the counterfeit. A little boy and girl, the first eight years old, and the latter live, arrived in Utica a few days ago, having come l'rom Ireland alone. They had been sent for by their mother who resides in Utica. Cotton Manufactures Decreasing. —The following' in the number of bales of Cotton manufactured per annum in the South : To September, 1849. 110,000 bales. To September, 1850. 107,000 baies. To September, 1851. 00, 000 bales. This is a deplorable result. But it has de creased in the North, too: For the year 1849-50. 487,000 bales. For the year 1850-51. 404,000 bales. The increase of Cotton exported to foreign countries over last year, is estimated at 398.- 555 bales. This is not the best evidence of the prosperity of Cotton manufacture in tho United States.— Alabama Paper. Dreadful Affray. —We learn from Messrs. Adams & Go's, express messenger, that a dreadful affray occurred at Aquia Creek, on the 21st inst., between John 1,. Cantwell and James W. Morrison, both connected with the through baggage train between this city and Charleston, Morrison was stabbed in five p.Vices in the back, once in the breast, and ter ribly about the head, and it was supposed could not survive. Cantwell made his escape. The affray originated about something connected with their business.— Clipper. Melancholy and Horrible Death —Mat hew Walker, a very respectable and estimable citizen of Union Township, Whitley Co., Ky , came to iiis death on Friday last, at the house of David Harslibarker, whilst feeding a thresh ing machine, by thebu.stingoutof the cylinder, caused by a stone bound up in one of the sheaves or wheat. Farmers should be careful to separate the stones and brush from their wheat, for it rarely passes witnoi t some acci dent occurring. Trial of a Young Girl far Murder.—Al rnira T. Besely, a young girl, was put upon trial at Providence on Monday, before the Su preme Court, on a charge of murdering her in fant brother, by putting arsenic in his miik. — la empannclling the jury, nineteen persons were excused from serving, having conscien tious scruples as tocapifal punishment. The evidence of a young brother was to the effect that his sister sent him to purchase arsenic.— She was finally acquitted. Death of a Heroic Sailor. —Jerome, the heroic sailor, who saved so ruanv lives during a dreadful shipwreck on the Atlantic, two or three years ago. was killed recently in Central America, during an affray between the natives and some Americans. The Louisville Courier says that nn aged lady, a member ut the Methodist Episcopal Church, one who heard John Wesley preach in England, partook of the Lord's Supper along with the wives and widows of ministers of the gospel, at the Conference at Indianapolis, the special request o! Bishop Watigh, on the 15lh instant. Telegraphic Despatches. From our Exchanges. Election Returns. NEW \OIIK.
