test. A dwision seems to hago taken
place among these who generally naiad
togother in times past as free-State

held a convention at Wyandotte on the

when the following platform irsis unan
imously adopted :
"Inasmuch as the esmorention at
Wyandotte, on the 15th inst., organised
the Black Republican party, and under
false and fraudulent pretonewi presented
to the people of Leavenworth county a
list of Black Republican candidates, in
direct violation of the call of the free-
State eerit.r,l perninittoo of this county,,,
therefore, we this conservative froir
state' men of Leavenworth county, do
hereby put in nomination a ticket
pledged to opposition to negro equality,
the corruption of the last legislature,
and now and over in favor of making
Kansas a FREE STATE FOR THE
WHITE RACE ALONE."

Tbo energises commenced in the largo
hall of the College ;a ten o'clock on
Wkdnesday morning. The half was
crowded to its utmost eapucjty by yisi
tors from all the country round, thougb
the number of those immediately inter
ested in the remarkable oolubration was
almost sufficient to fill it. The Presi
dent, Dr. McCaffrey, presided, and on
the platform were Archbishop Hughes
and all tho attexulant bishops, in 811
tanner and caps. The students' bands,
under the direction of Prof. Diolman,
wore stationed in the centre of the hall,
and performed Como exceller.t music
throughout the dny. The singing emu
'
pang of "Mountaineers," from Phila
delphia, who were engaged for 010•0C
-4asion, diversified the procedings with
omo delightful choruses. The students
of' the college and the alumni from all
parts iiere also present. The exercises
of the day consisted of tin address by
one of the alumni,
James McSlierry,
Big., of Frederick, Md., a poem by
George 11. Miles, Esq., of Baltimore,
and an exquisite Latin poem by Dr.
Pine, of Brooklyn, formerly professor
of rhetoric and poetry in the collegoll—
Dr. McCaffrey opened the proceedings
by an• appropriate address, and Arch
bishop Hughes concluded by a few re
marks.
On the ith insL, there was a grand
procession from the college to tho
church, which stands far up on the
mountain, when a solemn requiem mass
was offered for the souls of the founders,
Bishops Dubois and Brute. A grand
dinner was also given in the refectory
of the college.

The Overland California MaiL
Me Rejoicing at St. Louis.—Tll6 St.
10011114 Republican brings ns particulars
of the arrival there of the forst overland
mail from California, with six passen
gers, ono of whom was Mr. Bailey, an
went of the , Postoffice Department.—
o Republican says :
Mr. Bailey being called ant by gen
tlemen who had assembled at, the
Planters' Ilonso on the occasion, gave
a brief bat interesting history of his
trip. Tho great difficulty in the way
was the want of water in some of the
deserts, but, this was remedied to a very
considerable extent by the foresight of
the company, in seeding water forward
for the use of the animals. Tho com
pany has more 'than two hundred sta
tions on the road. Mveitailey believes
that ntl the dilcultics itobich ,11ed
this trip wilt be ovorecOme in a sbime
and ho proclaims the whole enterprise
" a perfect success." Thu Indians gave
them no trouble.
Mr. Butterfield, who has boqn labori
ously engaged in giving a fair start to
this - enterprise on this end of the route,
we are glaU tow, is in excellent health,
and confident olthe success of the un
dertaking.
The Republican also gives an account
of the rooeption of the mail, its escort
to the porotofflm by a procession of citi
zens, headed by a band of music, as well
as the reception of Mr. Butterfield, who
brought the mail through from San
Francisco, an achievement which that
paper regards as far more brilliant than
the
- laying of the Atlantic telegraph ca
ble, as it pages over our own soil, af
fording a semi-weekly, soon to be con
verted into a daily communication be
twoon the extremes of the republic. It
ear
jibe, years ago, when tho discovery
of gold in California led to the immense
emigration to thavState, it was regard
ed as an expeditious trip.if made from
the Mississippi to the Pacific in eighty
to one hundred days. Thousands were
occupied a much longer time, and hun
dreds perished on the wayside. The
ostabhshrnent of this mail route, and of
the route from St. Joseph to Utah, and
thence to'flacramento, has changed the
wbolo current of things ; and it is now
demonstrated, on a first trial, and un
der adverse circumstances, that it is
practicable Lo carry mails and passen
gess from St. Louis to San Francisco in
twenty-four days—and this will be re
duced, if necessary, below twenty days.
The Republican - adds that 31i. Iluch
anan's administration deserves great
credit for the encouragement which it
has iiiyoa to the successful prosecution
rit this great enterprise.
