\Vjtsni?tQTos, Feb. 13, 1649.
You perceive that the sfarm end apprehension
excited by the prospect that the poor sailors were
stout to lose their grog rations nod the eataosnme
taifa-sheir liquor end Ibeiijieking—ltsve not been
realised. The House crushed in the bud the grog
rrfanw-nnd the. Senate yesterday rejected the
amendment for the abolition of corporal punish
ment in the Navy, so that aa heretofore, Jack will
be fiisrgto&ed, and then llogged-theooe being m
correction oflbe otto. The vole for the common
tun of (he Hogging -Was ayes 32—nays 17. This

■' I intended yesterdayto remark upon the move
iuent'of Mr. Thompson, of llie neighboring district
Lto Pittsburgh, ibr the mniifatSe of the journal of
I th-HnoMii by expunging Usereltpm, the proviso to
the resolution of thanks loGfu. Taylor, by which
proviso, it 'ii declared that fae fate war with Met- ]
ico “was uunecessarily and unconstitulionally be
gnn by the President of the United Stales." The
agitation upon the expunging resolution of Mr
p-ptnn is become olmosffl; thing of the past gene*,
ration. Nolhwilhstinding the peiaevenuico and
eneigy .wilh which it was pressed, and the success
.which finally crowned the agitation, it was most
justly denounced e puerile end contemptible hum.
hug, and I have no doubt that Mr. Bontoo nosr
feds heartily ashamed of it-Mr. Thompson a x'
u Beaton, n« Mr. -Polks Gen. Jackson. The
House journal wffl tux bo mutilated and defaced as
the Senate journal was; the Dour Expunging Res.
olnlion will excite no senaatioo, and Mr. Thump*
ion will “fake nothing by hia motion.”
A rather curiona and illnatralive incident took
place yesterday in the House. Mr. Wallace, the
enweat ttnd the least Able of the respectable dele
gation of South Carolina, presented the resolutions
of that State, denouncing and presorting against
Ufa enactments of the Wilma Proviso, and >y Ibo
; tiwena comma of tho House, he was permitted
to make a speech upon them, when the domg »
sms altogether contrary to custom and usage, to.
j peril oousand unnecessary. and when to objection

The New Yorit Herald andTieibane ofMqciday,
giveeopiou* terns ofJklilbrnii tent brought by
Mr. Robert left .San Francisco oa
the 10th ofD&enfl#r, tad made the journey ri^ 1
Mnxallan and the’city of Mexico:—
Mr. Atherton bu brought with, him a number of
letters (or popple in New York, and a file of .the
Californian newspaper, published alBan Francisco,
lothel&b of November last Re arrived at Son
Bias from San Francisco, on the 20th of December
last,,in the brig Laura'Atm, Gaptam Blanchard,
which vessel left San Francisco <?n the 10th ol that
month. TTiisnews is, therefore, nearly (bar weeks
laterf'ih&n any intelligence which w© have received
I from'the famoos gold resjona of California.
Mr. Alhertpa brings with him the bills of lading
of gold to the value of $2OO/100 shipped on Epgliali
account, on which he proposes to effect an iosar» 1
aoce here. He also fully confirms the account of
the gold on board the U. S. ship, Lexington, which
was originally published in the Tribune, some three
. weeks aiocc. Mr. Atherton states, as did our
correspondent, that the Legington has on hoard
' SfiOO.OOO worth of the gentribe metal She was
i about to sail when Mr. Atherton left for the United
> States,
The ex teal, of the gold region, as for as it has
been explored, is three hundred miles in bf
one thousand^ o length, nod new discoveries ore
made from day to day. To the time when Mr. !
Atherton left, there were never more than fifteen
hundred persons engaged In digging at any one
time,'the average result of whose labor was about!
three ounces per day to each digger. This gold Is 1
found in flakes or scales in what is termed the wet
diggings, and is lamps and in the crevices of rocks !
In the dry diggings. Various reports were in cir* |
culotion as to the size and weight of those lamps i
—some persons asserting that they have been
found lo the weight of twenty-three pounds. These
an?, however) only rumors; bnt Mr. Alhlrtnn him* I
self saw a piece which weighed seven pounds,
anti which was found by one of the adventurer*.'
There hs» not been as much sickness at the pla
ced as we were led to snppose, neither isthe state
of widely there as bad as has been intimated.—
Fever *nd ague prevails there to a certain extent,
and attacks who are careless in regard to
their health; but, with ordinary prudence, persons
can gel along without any sickness.
About a dozen persons have died, among them
inMr.HP Richardson, of Bcmoo, who wasta
kenaick at tho placer, but removed to Saa Fraa
cUcMdr. Vm McDowell, of Ibe West, and a Mr.
Dickson, of Philadelphia. About a doien have
l died at the gold diggings, principally irom want of
prudence and exposure. .
When Mr. Atherton left San Francisco, U» Uni
ted store ship Lexington had not sailed; but
was to do so in a day or two. She bad on bohrd
! rold doit tolho value of half a million of dollars,
i which was for New York, and consigned
jto several booses here. The Lexington will take
' Messrs. Wells and Dewitt as passengers. They
i belong to .NeW York, and have gold on board as
i Delgbt. They were attached to the New York re
gsmenu ■,.
i of the line Ohio, Com. Jones, was also
in thb hiirborbf San Francisco. I
\l One of the greatest features of the news is the :
'discovery of agold mine, of great extent, in Oregon. I
j This discovery was attracting the attention of the i
! people of that territory, who were flocking thUher :
ra gritt number*, in preference to going to Cali* |
; jorni&K . I
Tho whole value of gold which has been gather* ,
f ed in California »• estimated, by those acquainted |
: with the muter, tt three millions of dollar*, two of I
I which left there in v*rions ways, and the remain* |
l dealso4 it*way to the United State*. It must not i
|be suppesed, however, that every one gets rich
’thme ofi the moment for the work of getting tho
role dust and and washing it is very arduous.— |
Caot Daly, oi'San Francisco, organised an expedi*
lion of ten men,who went to gold digging and were
absent three weeks; but they did hot gather enough
to cover expenses’ and were disbanded.
The precious metalexist* there, however, in ex
traordinary abundance, as is proved by the feet
that the captain of the French brig Perseverance,
with one hall of hi* crew, gathered ten thousand,
dollars’ worth in three weeks, as well as by the
large prices for which merchandize of every bind
Real estate, too, wosjaelling at enormous prices
—lota 25 yards square are selling for SIQJJQO.— ■
Provisions were abundant at San Francisco and
the diggings. Flour bottred in in great quantities,
from Cbili and Oregon, and came down in price,
from $25 ber barrel to 816, at San Frantiaeo. Tbe
nrobabaity is,,that article bos fallen atm farther —
perbgps to SW per barrel. Board in San Francis
co was SlO per week.
Great os thp discoveries of gold are, they are
equalled by those of quicksilver. That metal is
found in various parts of California, and the quan
tity fa as abundant aa in tbe mine* of Spain. Mr
Forbes, the proprietor of the mise*,had llrirtylhtm- !
sand dollars worth of the article on baud at Tepee,
ready for osritei. It is fotradgeveu within three i
miles ofSan Rrsnciuo. . I
About two thousand emigrant* had arrived ml
Cok'lbrain Hoot Oregon, ike Snndwhb UtenJ«, «nd
difieienl pin of Sooth Americn and Mexico. In
fact the gold feverxngee «a fiercely in Mexico aa
it due* in tbe United Statea, and, there ixwelt aa
hero, expediitM. «u towt&i. Mr. Atherton aaya,
that it is nccndviaable fitr luge'armed (mates n>
Ute the orcrlaiid ionic through Mexico, as the
aolhonliCß will be litely lo interfere,with them
an ip rev css their puugu. Smsll parties can go

. Sir— My letters from Nos. .'i3 lo 44 Inclusive,
«fespalcbed from Monterey by Lieut Lnnman, and
f.yom this place by the Lexington, Will fully inform
yfcra of the operations oTtbe squadron since our
departure from the- Galf of California. Nothing
i notarial has occurred since ray last date. De
sertions are less frequent, the Ohio baring lost but
c me mao since her arrival here, and 1 think the dis ■
i wsition to desert is not so general; but that may

i (applied with good bouses, and all thmmasaries

■climate, affording nothing for the use of man hit

daily collected; and scarcely a week elapses with*
out some new discovery of toe precious metal more
Startling than any previous one. U is said that a
Small party of five or six persons, a few days past,
Rtruck upon hpotkrt, as they term certain depew
from which, in two days, they obtained $30,-
000 of pare gold!
1 have been living on shore at San Francisco
. sow two weeks, and have had ample opportunity
for examining the subject, and I am more than
over satisfied that the disposal of the gold regions
ia the territory of California is the best, if not the
only practicable disposition that can be made of
them In the present disorganized state of society
out here. ******
The wont forebodings of evils consequent upon
the wsnt of certain and energetic administration
ofiaslice in this territory, are almost daily realized.
Within the three last weeks, we have certain
accounts of fifteen murders. In one instance-$n
; entire household of ten person*—* reap* ctable
ranchero and his wifo. two children, and six ser*
▼ants. The man, whose name was Reed, had
, been very successful in the diggings during the
1 summer,.and had returned to his home, near Santa
Barbara, with a large amount of gold. His bouse
was surprised by au armed party, and the whole
family, as above stated, were oarbatously murder*
ed, and tbe bouse rifled of its The
perpetrators of ibis horrid deed are still at large ;
of the other five case*, four are highway robberies,,
committed on persons returning with gold from the
i mines. In a word, I may say with truth, that both
! persons sad property are Insecure in Upper C&li
! fornis at (his time; and lam sorry to add, that in
all cases of outrage and violence, as yet discovered, i
1 emigrants from the United States, disbanded volon*
, teen, runaway tailors, and deserters from tbe army,
and navy, are believed to be the perpetrators.;
The mutinies, attended with murder, lo which
I alluded In my letter No. 43, have been fully
confirmed, and—not without good reason—has
caused much uneasiness to shippeis of gold from
inis coast.
To guard each and every vessel sailing hence
with large sums in gold dust, would require every
ship of the navy. The best that I ran do is to
keep tbe vessels of th>* squadron at tea as much
as possible, plying between the ports most frequent
ed by oar mercantile marine. Enclosed is a copy
of a circular which l have found it necessary to
issue and make public, in the hope that it may
have some tendency to prevent a repetition of such
acts as have recently occurred on board the En»
glish schooner Amelia and the Chilian barque Ad*
elina.
A recent arrival from Callao report* that tbe Ad»
aline h«d been taken into that port, and the muu»
neera eight, in number, promptly executed.

dence, as we leurn from papers from these pla
ces to the 27ih ultimo, and at other paints along
the northern line of l<ouisiana, the Mississippi had
then overflowed its lumks, and was still rising with
great rapidity. The. St. Francisville Chronicle
says:—
1 Great lots will be sustained by our citizens liv

a general overflow of their lands.’
At Lake Providence, the waler was two feet
deep in the streets, on the 27th, and it having com

was feared the whole town would be under water
at the end of the week. Tbe Sl Louis Republican,
of Saturday week says:
'The Illinois River ts very high, overflowing
the banks In many places. At Florence, Griggs
