FROM CALIFORNIA.
JJulf a million in Gold —New \ork, Jan.
11. —The steamer Daniel VVebster, from .San
Juan, whence she sailed, on the evening of
the 1-t inst., and Havana the afternoon of
the Oth inst., arrived this forenoon.
She brings dates from San Francisco to
th<> loth ot December, 255 passengers, and
v, 100.000, principally in the hands of passen-
The L nited States steamer Saranae. ( <>m
in.idore Darker, arrived at San Juan on the
Ist inst., and her visit was supposed to have
reference to the recent outrage upon the
steamship Prometheus, by tin* British brig
of war F,xitress. The event created great
excitement at San Juan.
The British Admiral has ordered the brig
of war F.xpress, from San Juqn to Kingston,
in order to investigate the commander's eon
duct in reference to the Prometheus.
The steamer Tennessee, with the mails
from New York to the 11th ot November,
arrived at San Francisco on the 11th Decem
ber, and the mail steamer from that city was,
in consequence, detained until the 10th, to
give merchants time to answer their letters.
It was not known what amount of gold would
be dispatched by the mail steamer.
The latest intelligence from San Diego
indicates most decidedly that the Indian dis
turbances are at an end. and Gov. AleDougnl
had disbanded the volunteer companies which
bad been formed.
The weather at San Francisco continued
delightful.
The accounts from the interior speak of
frequent heavy rains, which have proved a
gnat benefit to vegetation, and have raised
the rivers from five to ten feet. There ha
not. however, sufficient rain fallen to afford
the gold seekers in the dry diggings all the
facilities they require for successful work.
The papers contain contradictory state
ments relative to the gold discoveries in the
Bear \ allev ; some asserting that the claim
has the appearance of being worked out,
whilst others affirm that the first accounts
have been fully realized, and that it is a reli
able fact that the original discoverers have
sunk their hole to the depth of twelve leet,
and have taken out StOo.OdO.
A high state of excitement continues to
exist, and the mining population of the dis
trict has increased within a few weeks more
than one hundred per cent. Claims are still
s .ught for with great eagerness, but there is
no positive evidence ot the actual existence
ot' gold except at that point where the com
pany first commenced operations.
There had been a moderate business doing
at San Francisco during the la.>t fortnight,
without any improvement in prices, the stocks
continuing largely iu excess of the demand.
Seamen's wages were firm, and engage
ments were difficult at late rates. Laborers
obtain from $5 to $0 per day, and carpenters
and masons from *7 to >'Ph Other mechan
ical brandies are prosperous.
The general interests of the State are pro
gressing favorably, and all matters continue
gradually to assume a more settled and sat
isfactory aspect.
The miners generally are doing well.
Clean gold dust sl7 25 per ounce. Sight
bills on New York, 4 per cent.
Most of the damming companies and others
working in the beds of the rivers, had sus
pended operations. The Oregon Bar Com
pany, consisting of 25 men, on the north
Fork of the American river, have taken nut
Sds.Oil(i the past season, and they anticipate
that their dam will withstand the floods of
the approaching winter.
The New York dam mi ig company on the
same stream, have taken out $.">0,000 since
the last of -Inly. The company consists of
seven men, who intend to resume work at
llic same place as early as practicable next
seas n.
T it out of eleven quartz-mining companies
<ai .lamieson s creek have suspended opera
tions till spring. The quartz increases in
richness as the miners sink into it. The
Mar\.sville Kxpress states that the claims
Jiav-' risen, within four weeks, from SI2OO to
S:;0t iu.
The telegraph line of stages run from Sac
ramento to Nevada, a distance of eighty

oxen, passed east by Plum Valley House,
N.-vada, in one week.
An extensive deposit of magnetic oxide of
iron ore had been discovered, 30 miles from
Marvsville, on the Dlaeorville road.
A lettf r from Hon. Daniel Webster is pub
l; bed in the San Francisco Courier, which
denies the truth of Senator Gwin's statement,
that the Administration is in favor <>f selling
the mineral lands of * alilbrnia.
Mr. Webster states that the (internment
will take no steps in the matter, without con
mlting the wishes of the people of California.
Tie Democratic State Central Committee,
have issued a call for a Convention at the
Seat of Government of the State, on the 2dd
of February, to elect delegates to the National
D moeratic Convention at Baltimore, in June
next, to nominate candidates for President
and Vice President of the I'niterl States.

Snow had fallen to the depth of six feet in

A detachment of seventy D. S. troops had

whom is Antonio and liill Marshall, a white

1 HE CAUSE OK THE IXW.V.V TROUBLES. — A
statement is made by a number of minors
and other citizens at "Watson's Gulch, in
Shasta county, and addressed to Dr. Wozen
eroft, L . S. Indian Commissioner, which says
i that the Indian war arose from the wanton
! murders perpetrated upon some Indians by
j a party of men whose mules had been stolen.
| These men held a meeting and passsed roso
) lutions to kill all male grown Indians. That
I they adhered to their resolutions and put
tlicm in force on the first Indian they met
; with.
Affairs generally are in a prosperous state
, among our neighbors in the north, 'i he
. j mines are yielding satisfactorily, and the In-
I dians not more troublesome than might lie
j expected. The city at Shasta Butte is grow
-1 I iii"' apace, and already rivals Marysville in
| population and importance. The neighbor
hood of the Trinity and Klamath has recently
| been visited by a heavy fall of snow, but the
; weather has not proved of any unusual so
, verity.
Bonus (loin DUST TRIAL.—A gentleman,
says the San Francisco Courier, communi
cate the following statement relative to the
i trial and proceeding at Marysville. before a
| justice, of a party charged with passing bo
! gus gold dust:
'• On the stli inst., J. il. Tabor, of the firm
of J. I!. Tabor A Co., was arrested for passing
' bogus gold dust,' and was bound over to
appear before Justice Kuomigor, in the sum
!of SSOO. On Tuesday the ease came up. and
the Justice could not find the complainant or
Tabor's bond. All the papers had been ab
' stracted from the Court, and a material wit
i noss, (who had been seen with the partner of
j Tabor) could not be found. The same bogus
j bad been passed two or three times and taken
back. It- was offered here to the house of
Page, Bacon & Co., and at last was put oil
on a gentleman who exchanged it at the
; house of Page, Bacon A Co.. Sacramento.
The Justice discharged Taber, and the mat
| ter will be brought into a court where papers
, cannot he abstracted."
8K.V01.1 TIOV I\ CHILI.—By the arrival of
| the barque Isabel, fifty-five days from Talca
i huana, we have dates from Chili to October
i 10th.
It will be recollected that at the late elec
tion for President. Montt was declared elected.
When the electoral college assembled, many
of the members were absent, an 1 it was
claimed by the friends of Gen. Cruz that the
! election had been carried against him at the
point of the bayonet, and by the great -t
frauds and corruptions.
The friends of Cruz organized and address
ed a note to hint, to take the head of the rev
olutionary army, to which he consent-d.—
Arrangements were made for n genera! out
break on the 22<1 September, but a Govern
ment steamer coining into Talcahuuua about
the 18th of that month, the Cvuz party b k
j possession of her, getting 12iH ounces of g> M
with her. After being properly armed, she
I was about to proceed to Coquiinbo to get gov-
I eminent money there.
At this time, however, the steamer I ire
Fly came into harbor, and was fired at from
; tin' fort when she came to. It was soon dis
l covered that she was in the pnsses.-ion of the
Cruz party of Coquiinbo. The Fire Fly be
longed to an English gentleman, at Coquiin
bo, from whom she had been forcibly taken.
The two steamers were then despatched
! to Coquiinbo for money, at which port the
Chilian steamer, which was named Aurauco,
arrived first. Cnfortunately for her, she met
! an English, vcssel-of-war, and was compelled
t" pay about s2(>,<><H> indemnity for the taking
of the Fire Fly. She then returned to Ta!-
cahuana. where she found the port blockaded
bv a Chilian brig-of-war, which she van past
| in the night, and got safely into harbor.—
■ Preparations were on foot to take the brig
ol'-war by the Cruz party, when Mr. Palmer
| left.
The Cruz party were in possession of Tal
caiiuana, Coquimbo, Concept ion and a iiuin
• i for of other inland and seaport towns. All
the important government officers in these
places were ousted, and Cruz men put in
their places. Many of the officers were put
•j in prison, but let out again on parole.
The Montt party were in possession of
Valparaiso, and both parties were making
| active preparations for the fight. Mr. Palmer
says that it was the general impression at
| Taleahuana, when he left, that the Cruz
: party would be successful.
The U. S. sliip-of-war Sr. Marys, left for
I Valparaiso on the 24th Sept. < apt. M tgru
•b-r had seen the Governor at Coneep.-ion.
: who had promised that all .American vessels
should leave the harbor unmolested.
Kossuth's Visit lo Henry ( lay*
A most interfiling interview between
Governor Kossuth and Henry Clay took
] place at \\ ashington, on the Utli instant, at
1 hall past two o'clock, at the apartments of
the latter. Kossuth was introduced bv
Senator Cass. Mr. Clay received him
standing, and then, being seated on account
of his feeble condition, addressed the c< 1-
e bra ted Magyar in a speech of half an
hour in length, frankly expressing his o
pinions. lie deprecated the policy of in
tervention as the greatest calamity which
could befal this country, and said that, as
the possessors of the only existing repub
lic, the example of man's capacity for elf
; i government, it was the duty of the Ameri
! can people to encourage human progress
' and prosperity on this continent, which
might he destroyed by foreign wars, in
volving in their fall all hopes of free insti
tutions. These were, he said, the senti
• ments of a dying man who had struggled
'c r l
tor freedom.
Kossuth replied. He did not combat
Mr. Clay's positions, but confined himself
to the prospects ot Hungary and the situ
ation ol France, believing that events in
' the latter country would terminate iu ci\ il
war, and, perhaps, in a general revolution.
At parting, Mr. Clay rose and bade Kos
suth farewell for ever, wishing him a God
speed for Hungarian Independence as the
reward of the noble efforts of her people,
i Kossuth responded with emotion, saying
that he would pray God daily lor Mr.
< Ta\'s restoration to health and usefulness.
Both were deeply moved, and the scene
was touching and solemn.
Mr. ('lay was very favorably impressed
: with Kossuth, as regarded mind and man
ner. Only four spectators were present.
Mr. Clay will yet speak, or write, his
opinion on this important subject.

The managers of the Beading Railroad Com
pany, on Wednesday, made a dividend of 3.' per
cent on botii the preferred and common stock,
payable on and alter the 17th instant.
I fie \\ estrh ester \ tlkige Record gi'.ei
the particulars of what it describes as a
frightful ease of kidnapping. It is stated
that some time on Tuesday last, a person
lroiii Maryland, accompanied by an assist
ant, visited the premises of Joseph C.
Miller, and took from his house a young
colored girl named Rachel Parker, who is
said to be a free girl. They drove up to
the door, and as the srirl came out thoy
seized her, forced her into the vehicle and
drove off. Mr. Miller and a number of
the neighhois followed, and the next day
found the girl in the city ot Baltimore,
when a charge of kidnapping was pre
ferred against the individual who carried
her oil, and he was bound over lor a hear
ing. Miller and his friends started in the
cars on their return ; but at Perryville,
Mr. M. was missing, ami he was subse
quently found in the woods, hanging to a
tree dead, i lie Baltimore papers speak
ol .Mr. M. as having committed suicide,
while ine Record intimates that he was
murdered. That paper also sa vs:—"This
daring and high-handed outrage, in the
midst of a peaceful community—entering
the domicil of a citizen of Pennsylvania,
without legal process, armed with pistols
and bowie knives, and stealing from his
premises a iree person—demands immedi
ate and full punishment. If this state of
a flairs is to continue, the freemen of our
I omnionwealth are to he made slaves at
the will of the negro-stealer.
\\ est ISollinghuin township is the ex
treme southwestern part of Chester coun
-1 tv, and is bounded by Maryland on the
south, ii is distant some thirty miles
I from \V( - t ('hester.
Mr. Miller was a very respectable citi
t zen, highly esteenu d in his neighborhood,
1 a lartner by occupation, and leaves behind
him a wile and five or six - children to
mourn their loss, lie recently filled the
1 post ol assessor and collector, and otln r
public positions in his own township.
