Ki-om the Pan Francisco* Wrek!y Journal. ]*eace or Mai-. H A morning paper which some of our minicro'.i-i patrops may have heard of, il 11;,■ y. have never -ecu. says i " Tbat ii is ih-' intention o{ any considerable portion of the people of the United Stat, s to eminence a war of aggrc ii, n ap, »n England, ,„' utterly deny; and that the English people ent, i lain the idea of provok- inga war witb us, wcdoiibt believe. The two countries are too closely united by commercial lies, and cotton has nel relinquished any of its pretensions to regal sway." Thv ann un - anent lhal the people of ihe I hiiti cl ll ites have no intention cl commencing a war with any of the great \ owers, coming as ii does from SO an';!;.ji*i!at.ve a sonree. willj, doubtless, afford great encouragement to the friends of peace throughout the world; and could it be known in New York or London, lhat this fire-fly scintillation had been made, stocks would doubtless go up at opce—the qui stipn al peace or war would be regarded as settled. It is true lhat no sane man ever entertain- ed tho idea o'' an aggressive war with England; but ii. has ..n-.vcr been officially denied before, and now the merchant can send forth his vessel wilh a feeling of safety, for has it not been denied tliat the people of ihe United Siaies intend to wage war on England ? Hut, seriously, is there no danger of a war wilh England ? The gov eminent of the United Stales is confessedly fit this time the weakest ever known to the world. The Prest dent is -a mere shadow, an automaton iu the hands cl' scheming politician,, each one laying to use him for his own sellish purposes; and the poor witless object is kicked about a- mong ihem like a shuttle-cock,(while each member of his Cabinet holds a batlle-dore in his hand and tries every opportunity to give him a bat that shall place himself on the line of the succession. As a necessary consequence of so weak a Government:, thi, vesiless spirits throughout the land are under no restraint, but organize aud go oil with impunity and make war on weak and unoffending nations, With whieh the United >S'iales are al. peace. The indifference with which Ihe (Government regards these lawless acts, is understood at home and a- broad as a quasi-approval of tbern,] and thus the (lovei-nmeni, and people of the United Slates are held at home i and abroad, as to a certain otlent, responsible I'or them. The character of Ihe American people is such, that it matters little what may have been the merits of the case originally, if a body oi' our people get involved in difficulty aud danger in a foreign land Ihey wiil have many sympathizers throughout the country, and it the government allows a filibustering expedition to get started, and any considerable number of ou^|eople to get involved in the midst oi' a foreign eouniry. it then becomes nearly impossible to prevent many more from going to their relief. Unless filibustering is nipped in the bud, it is difficult to check it at all. When the war is begun people arc too prone to forget wlielhor in its origin it was just or unjust. It is not at all impossible that the people and government of the United States may beemnc involved in the difficulties of Central America. The English may- interfere to aid the Nicavaguaus in driving out Walker and his men; but if they do, the interference -ivill be met by a general interference on our part, and a general war is inevitable". But, suppose we do get into a war wilh England '( Have we any reason to fear such a'catastrophe '.' It is admitted on all hands that ihe greatest evil we have suffered under of late is overtrading with foreign countries.— Wc have relied upon Europe and Asia to supply us with many tilings that we ought to have produced for ourselves, and a war wilh any power having a large maritime force would compel our people to depend more on their own resources, and we might reasonably expect the country to be developed faster, notwithstanding we -were in the midst of a war, than il -would be so long as every dollar ive could spare was soul abroad in pay- ment for foreign luxuries. In lhat case Ihe Government would be compelled to build the pacific Railroad, or to give large encouragomcul lo il. So it would be, in regard to many other avenues of improvement, and the progress which would be made if on off iven the old world, and com- polled lo rely on our home resources, wilh the monopoly of our own market al home, would give an impetus to various branches ol" industry such as are now seldom dreamed of. The idea lhat Cotton is always to be King is already exploded. The Cotton Lords, in limes gone by, have been accustomed to threaten disunion if they could jnot bend the Central Government. Bul the talk of disunion ceases to be a bugbear at the North. If the South are bent on rul ing or else dissolving ihe Union, they will be allowed to'try the one thai suits them best. Theyyuay prate of their love for Ihe Union and threaten with ihe same breath to dissolve il, but the feeling el the North is now well nigh universal that submission io Ihe Cottonocracy any longer would he positivelj disgraceful. There is no doubt, however, thai ihe whole influence of Ihe Cotton Lords, boil, North and South, would be in favor of pence; peace at any price. But the inlliieuee ol that class is not what il. once was. The relative importance is slight compared with what it used to be. Otber branches of industry hive assumed a magnitude unthougbt of at Ihe time when Cotton'held sueh remorseless sway, ami peace or war will depend upou how the great hearl of the American people shall beat, and uot ou the sellish views and intrigues of the Cotton planters, Col- Hi,, factors, or Cotton manufacturers.

From the San Francisco Herald of -January iBt, we copy the following article, which gives at a glance the progress wo have made during the past year : To-day begins ths year of our Lord eighteen hundred and fif'ty-aix, and the thoughtful business man closes hia accounts for the past year and notes his stock in trade, his profits aud lost, his liabilit: and his prospects, and from ths experience of tho one year gathers a lesson for his conduct during the next: so, as a community, we should scan our paat actions, noto our present condition, and observe where we have erred, that we may avoid such errors for the future. The year has been one of exciting incidents at home and abroad, but with many drawbacks, it has on the whole proved a prosperous one for California. In the early part, the failuro of a number of the banks broughtruin upon many individuals and created a monetary panic that in the excitement of the moment some considered a fatal blow at tho prosperity of the country. But the storm quickly paeeed, and as on the battle-field fresh recruits fill up the gap3 the artillery has made in the ranks, and to appearance present as strong and bold a front as before, so new aspirants for wealth and honors step into the places of the fallen, and the worla goes on "as before, ana society appears none the sufferer. From that disaster our people soon recovered and pursued their avocatioBS, continued their improvements with as much spirit as before. In our own city we have been peculiarly favored. No pestilence has visited us—the climat* has extorted praises eyen from professional grumblers. During the year but 12G2 deaths occurred in a population of nearly C0,000, and of these a large proportion contracted disease elsewhere, and came hero from the interior, from foreign ports and from on board vessels to die in our hospitals. Our mortality statistics, compared with those of other large cities, will ehow thia to have been the healthiest oity in the Union during the past year. Nor haa the work of improvement stopped. It is not, to be sure, so apparent in the heart of the city, where Eplendid aud enduring structures have been long erected, but let one who takes an interest in our progress but make the circuit ofthe suburbs.and he will be surprised to see what a vast amount of work haa been done during the past year in the opening and grading of new streets, ihe erection of handsome and comfortable residences, the embellishment of the grounds about tbe dwellings of our citizens, the laying out of tasteful gardens, the construction of valuable manufactories, and the dressing up generally of tho waste lands round about us. The assessed value of the property in the city will probably reach thirty-flve millions of dollars, to which add some ten millions of dollars loaned on mortgage, and we shall have a total of forty-five millions of dollars invested in property in this city. To tha assessed value it is always usual to add one-fourth at least, to obtain the cash value of the property, for holders rarely give in the full valuation where taxes are to bo collected. Moreover it ia impossible for the Assessors to get a statement of all the personal property belonging to the community, aud so, making allowances for these items, it would be safe to say the total value of property and money loaned upou property in this city at the present time ia littlo short of fifty- five millions of dollars. This divided among sixty thousand inhabitantswonld give nine hundred and twenty-five dollars to every man, woman and child in the community, a fact that establishes our claim to be considered one of the richest cities in the world. We have not the materials for comparison before us, but we doubt whether, New Bedford excepted, that there is a richer city in America.— This should Bet at rest the fears of croakers here, who represent us as ruined because we owe a debt of two millions and a half, and of those abroad who look upon us as of a mushroom growth, bioom- \ug and vigorous in a night, withered and gone the next. The year on the whole has been a prosperous one to the mercantile and trading community, despite the lossesa sustained in the early part. Within the last six months trade has revived, goods and produce have brought remunerative prices, rents and expenses have been reduced, the cash system has been more strictly adhered to, and we doubt not the balance sheet will show a fair profit during the year, The farmers have done well too. They have in twenty-nine counties alone, out of forty-one, raised 2,554,726 bushels of wheat, 3,343,453 bushels of barley, 1, 025, 957 bushels of oate, and large quantities of smaller crops, supply not only our own wants, but to permit an expert of $4,645,900 to less favored countries. In those same counties, in addition to clearing up and putting their lands in cultivable coiidition, they havo planted full -100,- 000 grape vines, 200,000 apple trees, 200,000 peach trees, 15,000 pear trees, and 100,000 of other fruit trees, all of which will yield handsomely through coming years, and hold 78,051 horses, 436,871 cattle, 128,315 sheep, 193,685 hogs, and 14,194 mulea. Farm produce of nearly all kinds is paying a remunerative price, and we conclude the agricultural classes have in the aggregate prospered during the year. The same may be said of the miners. They have produced gold sufficient during the year to justify an export of $45,192,600, according to tha published manifests. In addition to tiis, it may be asserted, the miners have hoarded their earnings to a greater extent this year than ever before, in consequence of tho failure of the banks. For the same reason, a very large amount has been taken away in private hands, of which no record ever appears. During the year, too, the Mint in this eity has coined gold and silver to the value of ■$24,121,762, of which $17,598,300 was in gold coin, a large proportion of which has been added to tho circulation in tha State. Taking these matters into consideration, it will bo safe to estimate the production of our mines this year at $55,000,- 000, which shows anything hut an indication of giving out, as some of our very particular friends abroad will have it they aro doing. Aad lastly, manufactories arc rapidly increaeing, and the pro prietors have had rio cause to cwmplain during the year. Ih twenty-nine counties, out of forty-one, there are 70 Hour milli, 251 saw mills and ■''.' quartz wills. Ia this account, San Francisco, which contains more flour mills than any other county iu the Stato.and a very large number of saw mills, is not included. Wero the returns full, wc have not a question our State would show 100 flour mills, 300 saw mills and 70 quartz mills. The two fattt have done well, while the quartz nulla have realized a splendid profit for their twnerB. Summing up( we find tho commercial, agricultural, ininiug and manufacturing classes, have all cause for congratulation. Their labor has been rewardc-1, their improvements stand, their business has been established, they have learned valuable leMona hy experience, and havo a promising futui' before them. Who saya California is ruined, or CaUfor- nians without resources, with such an exhibit of tho year's operations before them. ATLANTIC JSEVTS. Condensed from the Latest Atlantic Papcn Th» United btatcs Senate organized on tho 3d of December. The Ilousa of Representatives met on tho same day, but failed to organize, Two hundrod and twenty-five members answered to their names. The first business of importance being tho election of Spaaker, the House proceeded to vote. Viva voce nominations were made with tho following result: Mr. Richardson, of Illinois 74 Mr. Fuller, of Pennsylvania 17 Mr. Campbell, of Ohio 53 Mr. Pennington, of New Jersey 7 Mr. Marshall, of Kentucky 30 Mr. Banks, of Massachusetts 20 Some others were also voted for. No election- 113 being necessary to a choice. The balloting waa continued up to tho evening of the Cth, with no result. On the twenty-first ballot the vote was— Rich ardson 71 Campbell 46 Pennington 20 Fuller Jl Banks 21 Wheeller i;j Smith, 7; Thurston, 3 ; Nichoison,' 2*;" Howard, Oliver, Mace, Walker, Davies, Dunn, Aiken, each received 1. Richardson is an Administration man. and was the leader of tho House in passiug the Nebraska bill. Campbell is a Free-Soiler, ox-Whig j Banks is a Free-Soil Know-Nothing. The others are mostly Know-Notbings, Whigs and Republicans. Our Representatives, Denver and Herbert, voted for Richardson. A dispatch to the New York Tribune, dated Washington, Dec. 1855, says : " It is reported in .this city that Joseph Lane has been appointed a Brigadier General in the Army of the United States. It has just been ascertained beyond the possibility of cavil that a dispatch has been received from Mr. Buchanan relatiye to the Crampton difficulty. the tenor of which ia, that the British Government in a courteous but positive manner decline giving such explanations a3 have been demanded by our Government regarding the alleged violation of our Neutrality Laws by British agents. This pect of affairs imposes on our Government delicate obligations, and it will require all its wisdom to extricate itself from the present dilemma. The Governments of San Salvador, Honduras, aad Costa Rica, have strongly protested to this Government against the recognition by Minister Wheeler ofthe present Nicaraguan Government.'' Another dispatch to the same paper, dated Washington, December 6, saya : " The Democratic members ofthe Senate met in caucus this evening, with Dodge in the chair, and Jones, of Iowa, Secretary. The only business of importance transacted was the appoiutment of a committee of seven to report to another caucus early next week, a proper arrangement of tho standing committees of the Senate. Gen. Cass was appointed chairman of this committee, aud the other members comprising it were Messrs. Ma- sou, Toucey, James, Fitzpatrick, Slidell and Evans, The caucus seemed to he a little puzzled to determine the political sentiments of the opposition. Finally the following gentlemen were put down as Know-Nothings, viz :—-Messrs. Houston, Crittenden, Adams, Clayton, Bell and Wilson. It was presumed by this caucus that the fossil remains of the Whig party would probably act with the Democracy. The caucus considered, but did not decide on the propriety of placing any of the Republican Senators on the committees." A returned Califoruian, by the name of Savage, committed suicide on the Cth ult., in New York. He had been only married about six months, and, it is said, was worth considerable property. A written paper was found near him to the following effect:—"Beware, oh, beware of that bad woman May God forgive me all my misdeeds." The above does not refer to his wife, with whom he has lived very happily. Dudley Selden of New York is dead. The trial of Louis Baker, for the murder of Poole, has commenced. There are great troubles in Kansas. A party of anti-slavery men are reported to have rescued a prisoner from a sheriff. They were reinforced till they numbered one thousand men, when they entrenched themselves. They are armed with Sharp's rifles, and have chosen General Lane for their lead- Governor Shannon has sent to the President for United States troops. A disastrous fire occurred on the night of Dec. Gtli at the Sing Sing State Prison. Several workshops and a large amount of machinery and working stock were destroyed.. Loss estimated at about $80,000, the principal part of which will fall on the contractors. On tho afternoon of November 26th, a fire occurred in Chicago, destroying over one hundred thousand dollars worth of property. The Secretary of tlie Treasury gives notice to holders ofthe stocks of tho United States that thi million and a half of dollars of said stocks at any time when the »me may be offered prior to the last day of June next. A locomotive boiler exploded on tke Nashua and AVorcester Railroad, lately, killing tho engineer and fireman. A convention of Irish delegates from jUflBrest portions of tha fJalon met at New York on the 6th ult., but they sat with closed doors, •xoloding even the rt-porters. The purpose ot (he convention was said to be to organize for a rebellion Id Ireland. The rumor is that a special agent on behalf of Russia was present, and offered immense sums of money to nid the movement. ■ Tho Government ban contracted to send 1,000 troopfl to California, by Panama. They will go out III :i-i extra Bteaaar, the St, Louis. The semimonthly line of brigafrom New York to Aspmwuii were about to start, at last account*;, Ml ol freight. A bill is before the Texas Legislature, proposing a loan of $5,000 for each mile of railroad built in the State—tho State to retain a mortgage on the road. Several of the Texas papers are urging the Leg ialature to instruct Senator Houston to resign, ou iccount of his anti-Southern sentimeutu. Vermont appears to bo a model State in regard io the management of its finances. The total disbursements ofthe Stato revenue for the last year vere only $153,127. Tha number of candidates for office at the last (lection, in New York city alone, was oyer NgAf thousand—being equal in numbers to the eutira trmy with which Gen. Scott made his descent into (he Valley of Mexico, at the time of tho war with lhat Republic. The splendid river steamboats George Collier and Alayflower were destroyed by lire at the Mem- [iiis wharf, ou the night of tho 2d ult. Twelve lives were lost. The wharf-boat waa also burned. Loss $250,000. An action has been instituted by Paasmoro Williamson against Judge Kano for false imprisonment. At the latest accounts; we have from tho East, Senator Douglass was lying dangerously ill at Terre Haute, Indiana.} The citizens in the vicinity of Parkville, Mo. havs become highly exasperated at the return to that place of Park, the proprietor of tho abolition press which was recently destroyed by the mob. Serious troubles are apprehended. It is reported that there is now in store in Chicago, or in transitu for the seaboard, Tia Detroit, seven hundred thousand bushels of wheat, which havo been purchased on account of the French Government. The ceasus of Nebraska, just completed, show:; a total populatfon|of'4,566. The number of 'Jegal voters, after deducting the fifty white males raiding on the half-breed tract, is 1,4C5. There arc eleven slaves in the Territory, five residing in the half-breed tract, and six in Otoe county. The Troy Whig says that the number of devotees to the spiritualist doctrine in that city ie estimated by a gentlem in, who it regards as sufficient authority, at twelve hundred. These embrace, it saya, i; many of our leading citizens— men of worth and intellect, who dt-duce their belief from philosophical and liberal reasoning, and are by no means to be identified with the fanatics who are always ready [to embrace any new theo- ry.j; The boiler of a Steam Firo Engine exploded on the 4th ult. in Cincinnati, Ohio, while on trial before a committee from Chicago, killing the engineer and severely wounding two others. Advices from Rio to the 9th November state that fifteen thousand had fallen victims to cholera in the province of Bahia. It is said that the people died so rapidly that a difficulty was found in getting help to bury the bodies, and although the sailors ef the Imperial Navy lent their aid, many of the deceased had to be burned. Two thousand of the inhabitants of Rio were swept away, but the disease, at last accounts, was fast disappearing.— The slave population had suffered severely. The San Antonio (Texas) Herald announces that the War Department, satisfied cf the lillibusterin^ character of Capt. Callaghan's expedition, haa given orders to the commander to prevent any for- ther demonstration of the kind, and to havo all those engaged in the expedition arrested Midi tried for a violation of the Neutrality Laws. The same paper adds :—■" The General will have an iutere.-s'- ing time in executing the order." Washington Monument.—The Washington Monu ment, the corner stone of which was laid on tbe Fourth of July, 18i8, has been raised to tbe hight of 152 feet, at an cxpciisc of $£30,009, The original estimate of the cost of the whole work .van £1,122,000. Mr. Christian Reister, a German school-n:.stcr, and a peaceful, ino'Icu-ive man, was kil.ed at St. Louis last month, by stabs received from K. N. rowdies, who|it seems attacked him tbrvaffh mistake. James Curdy and Robt. Jarett, two of the murderers, were arrested, bat the third, Gteovge Redding, escaped. The corner stone of an immense granite moBfi- ment, commemorative oi the landing of the Pilgrims, is to be laid at Plymouth on the first of August next. Thirteen years ie the maximum ol time allowed for its constructiou, and it is expected to be one of the most magnificent monumental structures in ihe world.

The price of her adhesion Ia stated to be the re-annexation of Finland to her territories, an object which nlie no doubt covets, but for which she would hesitate to make the sacradces which her co-operation with tbe allies might entail oa her.

A morning paper which some of
our minicro'.i-i patrops may have heard
of, il 11;,■ y. have never -ecu. says i
" Tbat ii is ih-' intention o{ any
considerable portion of the people of
the United Stat, s to eminence a
war of aggrc ii, n ap, »n England, ,„'
utterly deny; and that the English
people ent, i lain the idea of provok-
inga war witb us, wcdoiibt believe.
The two countries are too closely
united by commercial lies, and cotton has nel relinquished any of its
pretensions to regal sway."
Thv ann un - anent lhal the people
of ihe I hiiti cl ll ites have no intention
cl commencing a war with any of
the great \ owers, coming as ii does
from SO an';!;.ji*i!at.ve a sonree. willj,
doubtless, afford great encouragement to the friends of peace throughout the world; and could it be
known in New York or London, lhat
this fire-fly scintillation had been
made, stocks would doubtless go up
at opce—the qui stipn al peace or war
would be regarded as settled. It is
true lhat no sane man ever entertain-
ed tho idea o'' an aggressive war
with England; but ii. has ..n-.vcr been
officially denied before, and now the
merchant can send forth his vessel wilh
a feeling of safety, for has it not been
denied tliat the people of ihe United
Siaies intend to wage war on England ?
Hut, seriously, is there no danger
of a war wilh England ? The gov
eminent of the United Stales is confessedly fit this time the weakest ever known to the world. The Prest
dent is -a mere shadow, an automaton iu the hands cl' scheming politician,, each one laying to use him for
his own sellish purposes; and the
poor witless object is kicked about a-
mong ihem like a shuttle-cock,(while
each member of his Cabinet holds a
batlle-dore in his hand and tries every
opportunity to give him a bat that
shall place himself on the line of the
succession. As a necessary consequence of so weak a Government:,
thi, vesiless spirits throughout the land
are under no restraint, but organize
aud go oil with impunity and make
war on weak and unoffending nations,
With whieh the United >S'iales are al.
peace. The indifference with which
Ihe (Government regards these lawless
acts, is understood at home and a-
broad as a quasi-approval of tbern,]
and thus the (lovei-nmeni, and people
of the United Slates are held at home i
and abroad, as to a certain otlent,
responsible I'or them.
The character of Ihe American
people is such, that it matters little
what may have been the merits of the
case originally, if a body oi' our people get involved in difficulty aud danger in a foreign land Ihey wiil have
many sympathizers throughout the
country, and it the government allows a filibustering expedition to get
started, and any considerable number
of ou^|eople to get involved in the
midst oi' a foreign eouniry. it then
becomes nearly impossible to prevent
many more from going to their relief.
Unless filibustering is nipped in the
bud, it is difficult to check it at all.
When the war is begun people arc
too prone to forget wlielhor in its origin it was just or unjust. It is not
at all impossible that the people and
government of the United States may
beemnc involved in the difficulties of
Central America. The English may-
interfere to aid the Nicavaguaus in
driving out Walker and his men;
but if they do, the interference -ivill be
met by a general interference on our
part, and a general war is inevitable".
But, suppose we do get into a war
wilh England '( Have we any reason
to fear such a'catastrophe '.' It is admitted on all hands that ihe greatest
evil we have suffered under of late is
overtrading with foreign countries.—
Wc have relied upon Europe and
Asia to supply us with many tilings
that we ought to have produced for
ourselves, and a war wilh any power
having a large maritime force would
compel our people to depend more on
their own resources, and we might
reasonably expect the country to be
developed faster, notwithstanding we
-were in the midst of a war, than il
-would be so long as every dollar ive
could spare was soul abroad in pay-
ment for foreign luxuries. In lhat
case Ihe Government would be compelled to build the pacific Railroad,
or to give large encouragomcul lo il.
So it would be, in regard to many
other avenues of improvement, and
the progress which would be made if
on off iven the old world, and com-
polled lo rely on our home resources,
wilh the monopoly of our own market al home, would give an impetus
to various branches ol" industry such
as are now seldom dreamed of.
The idea lhat Cotton is always to
be King is already exploded. The
Cotton Lords, in limes gone by, have
been accustomed to threaten disunion
if they could jnot bend the Central
Government. Bul the talk of disunion ceases to be a bugbear at the
North. If the South are bent on rul
ing or else dissolving ihe Union, they
will be allowed to'try the one thai
suits them best. Theyyuay prate of
their love for Ihe Union and threaten
with ihe same breath to dissolve il,
but the feeling el the North is now
well nigh universal that submission io
Ihe Cottonocracy any longer would
he positivelj disgraceful. There is no
doubt, however, thai ihe whole influence of Ihe Cotton Lords, boil, North
and South, would be in favor of
pence; peace at any price. But the
inlliieuee ol that class is not what il.
once was. The relative importance
is slight compared with what it used
to be. Otber branches of industry
hive assumed a magnitude unthougbt
of at Ihe time when Cotton'held sueh
remorseless sway, ami peace or war
will depend upou how the great hearl
of the American people shall beat,
and uot ou the sellish views and intrigues of the Cotton planters, Col-
Hi,, factors, or Cotton manufacturers.
