Important from Southern California SnocKusti Nzws FROM THE PLAINS.-Mr. Henry Livingston, who reached San Diego a short time since, in company with Mews John Stein and Samuel Simon, furnished the San Di ego Herald with the following important intelli gence: "During the two days stay of Mr. L. at the crossing of the Colorado, a report was brought into the effect that a company of immigrants, composed of fifty persons, all from Texas, were murdered near the Pimos Villages, by a band of Apaches, on the list of August. There were several women and children in the train, who it is feared, were doomed to a more horrid fate.— All the battle, six hundred in number, together with the provisions, were carried off by the Indiana, leaving the wagons in the road This news was brought by a train which was at the time a few hour's travel in the rear, but which happily es caped attack. Near Tueson, about the same time, a p a rty of twenty Americans were eating their dinner, when a band of fifteen Indians made a descent upon them, and carried off seven of their finest horses, without a shot being fired by either party, al though the Americans were well armed, outnum bering them, and witnessed the outrage Another part), a few miles on thetiflrr aide of Tueson, were attacked, one American killed, and twenty-seven horses taken The parties be fore mentioned were all from Texas The Apaches arc becoming more troublesome and wore formidable every day, and almost ev ery train which enters within their range, will be more or less harassed by them It is rumor ed at the river that more immigrants are now on this route through Term, than have ever been before." DIED OF TIURST -Mr Livingston came from Caborca by the Tinijalta trail, and learned from some Mexicans that he met, that during the last two months, some twenty five Americans had perished for want of water on this route Among them was a Mr Douglass, of Sumner county, Tennessee, who had been in California einoe IS49—also, one man from Pennsylvania, name forgotten.

The express train over the Great Western Railway, doe at Windsor last Thursday night at 11. 20, oases in collision with a gavel train at 5. 80 on Friday morning about one mile era of Babtiat Creek, or nearly 31 miles from Windsor. The express had been delayed at various point/ by other trains off the track. At St. George, a pixel train had got off, and a baggage train was behind. One hour and a half was spent in get ting the train upon the track again, and then the express was obliged to follow the train to Princeton at a very slow pace . The train left London at 1 o'clock, and when out four miles the cylinder head burst, and it was necessary to procure another engine from Lon don to draw the train back, in order to change engines The train again started with a new engine, and was ordered by the conductor, Mr. G. T. Nutter, to run stow, as the night was dark and foggy, By means of these delays the train wu now three hours and forty-five minutes .be hind time. The time up to the scene of disas ter at about 20 or 25 miles per hour The gra vel train was backing into Chatham, the engi neer supposing that the express bad passed. The collision was the most frightful affair ev er known on a Western. road. The express con sisted of four first class and two second-class ears, all full of passengers So forcible was the shock, that the car next to the baggage-ear was jumped completely over the second-class car, killing or 'wounding nearly all the passen gers in both cars, and smashing them to atoms The front first-class car was also dashed to pie ces, and the passengers in the front part nearly all killed, or badly injured. When daylight dawned through the dense fog, the most heart-rending scene presented itself.— Amid the confused pile of fragments, scattered in every direction, lay the mangled remains of more than fifty persons. Here lay the corpse of a mother, mangled beyond description, while a few feet urther off was a mass of flesh and blood which had once been her child Here lay a legand an arm, or a head, while the body to which they belonged was buried in the mass of fragments, now smoking with human gore But sadder yet were the appeals of the wound ed, who lay groaning under the broken cars, and writhing in pain worse than death Then the pleading, tearful entreaties of mothers for their darlings, which this calamity had rendered un sightly and unknown Their shrieks even chill ed the hearts of the bravest, and unnerved many a strong arm. He who has seen the sight, or heard the appalling cry, will remember it to his dying hour, but the hand of divinity would fail to do it justice Several of our citizens were upon the train, of whom the son of S. M Holmes, and also Robert P. Toms, Fsy , (who is our informant) have re turned to us unhurt, but imprsased with the sad dest picture of human suffering that has ever fal len beneath their notice Mr. Toms says that among the whole number unhurt, very few bad the nerve to handle the mutilated forms of those who but a few minutes before were as full of life aud hope as they But there was one whose he roism is worth) of particular notice—Thomas F Meagher No sooner was he clear of the wreck, than throwing aside his coat and vest, and seiz ing an axe, he began the human work of helping the suffering, and never did a man work with better will Others, and Mr. Nutter, the con ductor, among them, worked as men never work ed before The cries of the wounded nerved heir arms, and disregarding fatigue and their own bruises, they worked for four hours as ear nestly as for the lives of their dearest friends. When Mr Toms left, there had been 2.5 dead men, 11 dead women, 11 dead children, 21 wounded men, and 20 wounded women and chil dren taken from the,rua s s of ruins--making 89 in all killed or wounded The ruins had nut all been removed, and it is probable that this num ber will be increased sow,. ten or fifteen Of the killed a large portion are foreigner , . it thought probable that two-thirds of the wounded will die Mr Toms says that nothing was ow wed which could be done to alleviate the sufferings of the wounded The killed were removed one side, and covered with canvas A hand car was dis patched for a physician, who soon arrived, and the wounded were spread upon the cushions of the broken cars, and made as comfortable as pos sible. There could be no possible blame attached to the conductor, Mr Nutter, or engineer, Mr. Thos Smith, of the Express train The fault lay with the engineer of the gravel t rain , who should have known whether the Express had passe4before corning upon the track 116 name has not yet been found out, as he immediately left the ground Since writing the above, we learn that 11 more have died, making 58 now dead. We learn from Mr Wm II Weed, of the firm of F P Furman & Co , N V , that Mr. Randall Watson, of Cortland Co , was detained at the Suspension Bridge, to look after baggage, and came with him on the following train, and witnessed the heart rending sight of his wife with both legs broken and otherwise injured, his daughter badly injured, his son with a leg bro ken, and one or two members of his family lay ing dead and mangled in the ruins. ANOTHER INFERNAL 31AcHINE.—A egentk roan who w..' present when the affair occurred, informs us that the explosion at Earle's Hotel, Park Row, New York, on . Saturday afternoon, caned groat consternation in the neighborhood, and well it might It seems that the machine contained some tell or twelve pounds of powder, and its explosion raked the lower floor of the building in every direction, tearing and smashing glass and fixtures in a terrible manner Fortu nately at that time few persons happened to be in the room where the explosion took place, or in the rooms immediately contiguous to it; but those who were there received more or leas injury, and one was so seriously hurt as to render it expedi• eat to take him to the hospital, where he now loon in excrntiating agonies. It seems little short of a miracle that the building was not com pletely demolished. The inmates of the hotel were of course in the greatest alarm, and several of the ladies endeavored to precipitate them selves from the upper windows to the pavement The police were quickly on the ground and res tored order. FaoM Nzw Mratco.—The mail from New Nlexico arrived at St. Louis on Friday last bring ing dates to the 20th of September, but the fir publican says the news is not very important.— Another expedition was fitting out against the Apache Indiana, who had gathered on the west side of the Rio del Norte, near the scene of Col Cooke's fight. They numbered one hundred lodges, and it is said were maxima to meet the Americans in battle again. Gen. Garland had ordered three companies to occupy as many dif ferent points near them, and to be in easy con centrating distance, in case of a general battle. This force, it was expected, would be about one hundred and eighty strong, enough, it was be. lieved, with good management, to whip the In dians as they deserved to be. THE EBBING TIDE. 07 EMIGRATION.—SIDee ' the let of August, about six thousand foreigners have sailed from the port of New York alone, ,for Europe, which is nearly twelve per cent of the number arriving. Many reasons are given as a cause for this returning emigration, but the most plausible to our mind is the explanation that these persons have gone on a visit to their native lands to brine out their friends and rela tives The supposition that it was caused by the demonstrations of what are called Know Nothings, is absurd. When this returning tide had commenced to set in, the new order bad not given sufficient evidence of power to mate alarm even among the most timid of foreigners. lir:Parson Milton, of Newburyport, an ec centric divine, was once called upon for a prver at a Fourth of July dinner, and gave: "Oh, Lord, de li ver no frau 66,a petrioth an —amen." •- -- Of rit ttklß bstrbrr.

It may be that the mere "matter of building rail ' roads, and bridges, and school-houses," has some thing to do with "civilization " Perhaps the Paddies who "build" the first are "civilized" there by, and perhaps the mechanics who construct the others, obtain a higher -civilization" by the em ployment.

There does not appear to be a disposition in those in authority here to shirk any one of the issues in Utah which circumstan ces are so rapidly forcing upon them, though on the other hand, we take it for granted that they (the Administration,) will do nothing in the pre mises with the disposition to court any trouble in Utah, that can be avoided in the due enforce ment of proper United States authority there Whoever may be sent there, will go out so forti fied, that be will surely have the laws executed, while no one will be sent there who cannot be re lied on to act with great prudence and sound dis cretion. We repeat, we have every reason t o believe that great difficulty is being experienced in the selection of the proper man To this the Philadelphia .Vorth an, a leading whig paper, adds the following: "We welcome this intelligence, coming as it does from a 'Demme generally regarded as semi official. It is to be regretted that the Adminis tration has delayed so long to adopt a course which has been inevitably from the first, bit now that it isdispoeed to rectify an evil which has been strengthened by toleration, the people of the country at large will support any measures adopt ed towards effecting the proposed object All feel, and see, and know that this JM , ,ruion community is an anomaly in our country— & State within a State—a power at variance with the power upon whose territories it has perched without leave or right. If it were of a republi can character, as required by the National Con stitution, there might be some pretence of apolo gy for its manifold, social and political offences, but it is a pure and unmitigated hierarch despo tism, worse than any existing in Europe, and likely to be formidably dangerous to the institu tions of the republic, if it should ever attain to the proportions of a member of the confederacy " THZ NIxT Lzti ISLATUBJE.—The Harrisburg Union does not think that the political complex ion of the next Legislature can be determined until after the members assemble at Harrisburg There appears to be an opposition majority in the House, and on joint ballot; but whether it will be a reliable majority on all questions, re. mains to be ascertained. SLAVraY IN KANSA •—The Wa.shington cor respondent of the Coos Derao..eat, obtaining his information from Mr. Osborn. editor of the Kan sas Herald, who was lately in Washington, says: "Emigrants' from the slaveholding States do not carry their slaves with them. There are less than twenty slaves in the territory, a majority of whom are held by the officers of the Fort, and were there before the territory was opened to settlement. Neither Mr. Osborn or Judge Bird, a distinguished Missourian, have any doubt but that when the Territorial Legislature meets next spring, slavery will be prolsibiled in the Territo ry..

He is a strictly virtuous man, and is the,president of ""11 society for the decreasment of licentiousness,, the eradica lion of I ibettnism and the demolition of assignation homiest" yet the stolid gray-haired old wretch keeps a mistress, and patronises the gaudy homes of fallen virtue far more gen erously than he does the church. Altogether, "a most respectable and exemplary man" is very often a mighty strange compound of good and bad, a pill of evil, he is sugar-coated with an imitation of piety and the public swallow altogether, because he is "a most respectable and exemplary man." .The Painesville Telegraph says, "Perhaps the defeat of Bigler—the election of Pollock—and a Legislat•re who will wand Thadeus Stevens to the United States Senate, it no cause for glorying." Just so; we don't think there is mach cause for "glorying" over the election of Pollock, under the cireamrtancee Did Pollock owe his success to the Anti-Shivery sentiment of the people, then there would be muse fur each politicians as the Telegraph man to "glo ry," but when it is a notorious fact that the same species of "religious bigotry," so justly condemned by the Trie. graph "in the little half-civilized village of Ellsworth," was the all-powerful weapon used to defeat Bigler, and elect his competitor, we really curt see how a paper that is eternally prating about "liberty," and "equality," and all that, can "glory" a great deal over it, and still be'etln sistient' We can readily see how a man can mount tke "free din " dodge, and still not blush—in short we wire sympathy and respect for an out-and-out tierrett Sixelth abolitionist—but bow a man can "glory" over the success of "religious intoleranoe," and "sectarian bigotry," in this day of Free Schools and Newspapers, is most certainly in comprehensible to us' When we see such a man as Jos. R. :handler struck down because he worships at a differ , rot altar from the one Pollock is supposed to bend the knee to—when we see a party nominate a candidate, like tleorge Dante, and then because it is ascertained that he was born in Scotland, ruthlessly sacrifice him at the mandate of a secret oath-bound cabal: or when we see that 'gime party put in nomination one of its beet men as its candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court, and then at the mandate of that same band of modern Jacobins, cast him oer for a person who actually has been struck from the roll of every court in the State,—we think it ill-becomes the friends of "freerd ,, m," par areettarice, like the retry ropii to "glory" over It. Rather ought they to bltuh and hang their heads in shame that they have, even fur success, been caught in seek company. As to sending Thadeus Stevens to the Senate, we think he has a better chance of being sent where he told the Whigs they must throw their con sciences in 1836—"t0 the devil." -A few years since sine Banking and Exchange office was an experiment in this place.
