Ofl Hi' morning of the 3d of April, at 8 o'clock[
Hi': forcer- of r.v-piicra were drawn up diitiide liie
Ely of Ma/..Ulan, and a;i attack co:uraenci-d on lhe
dolunci.M o: tlie cily, in Uie po^=c"bioti of the Miramon party.    In   two hours,  the three   forts which
■ ijinmandcd the city, were carried, and the victorious !."r-:-ieg'_rs were led into the city by Pesquiera
him elf, v. ho immediately pronounced iu favor of
Juarez and the Liberal party, declaring himself
Governor of the States of Siualoa, Sonora and
Chihuahua.
Order.- were thou is uod. prohibiting any acts of
loleoee, and a reward of $100 offered for the ap-
prehi.-n ion o: ._■__>■ who ;ni;rht. be found plundering.
Two riddiers were apprehended, who had disobeyed
the oi-lers. and they wero immediately takeu out
and r-ln.,-.
The American flag was displayed Irom the bouse
oi [Jr. 11!vens. and one of Pe^iuieart; oflicers. standing in front ol it, saluted the Hag', saying aloud, in
Spanish " Long may that fhig wave, the lha ol
the only tree and independent nation in the world.''
Immediately on peace being established, the
business of the city, which had been for some time
paralysed, begun to improve, and at the departure
of t&e Santa Cruz, tbe town presented its usual
aspect. Great confidence waa felt in Pesquiera's
i', .eei'iinv.uit, which was exhibited by the rapid
inerer.r-e in t.iie business of the city.
The most friendly feeling existed between Pesquiera and ii;e Americans at Ma/.atlan. The Go
venior, f.ecemp iuied by his staff; visited the Santa
Cruz, and lhe next day, Capt. Haley entertained
his visitors aboard his ship, making a short excursion for tlieir amusement.
Afterwards, tbis courtesy was reciprocated by
the eb;,',e]]s, who invited Capt. Haley and his passengers to a ball. Tbe greatest respect was exhibited towards the Americau people and Government, not alone by Pesquiera and his officers, but
by the people of Mazatlan and Guaymas.
On the 2Sth April, the Santa Cruz left Mazatlan>
tii eighty cabin passengers, and half a million
of tnasnre. for Sau Francisco Oftlie passengers,
forty were officers of the defeated party, whose passage wai paid by Pesquiera, and thirty-six ounces
afterwards distributed amongst   tbem.
The Santa Cruz will return immediately to Maz-
atlan, as she ia under charter to Pesquiera's Go-
veruniieif.
Capt. Stone's party were still at Goaymas, and
were prosecuting the survey without molestation
from the people.

The Sh.ii   Gnbrni Mines.
The mineral resources of our   country   are DOW
be;:o ihon.ar.-hly tested, and develop d. A company ef men left here on Monday mornig for the ;
Sail Gabriel mines, and another on Wduesday morning. The mining ground is said to be extensive
and the p<--y dirt rich. For over a month past,
operations have been carried on, and yet the prospectors remain, and are well satisfied with their
uneration. We have heard of one piece of
gold having been taken out-, worth S^2. However,
ii.ii miners <; -pond on is. the gieat extent ol
round, available for placer mining, and the large
and constant supply of water. These mines are
situated about forty miles from  town.
From the most recent information, we know thai
the Sau Gabriel mines are a great fact. There
are about one hundred men (here, good steady
workers, who are preparing claims. There is no
excitement about tbe matter, aar are reports gotten up lorsen.-ation purposes. Tho people of the
couuty know now of the existence of gold there,
and they are determined to work it out them-
Heli'es, Yve are in possession oI facts regarding
the yield of liie mine-, but do not think it necessary to give them here : those in our city who are
not profitably employed, should at ouce go to the
San Gabriel mines. All who bave gone, have
made arrangements for working claims ; come
back for provisions and tools, aod then return, to
commence operations.
Iu the Sau Franci-ico Pass, mining operations
have also been commenced, and we understand
with considerable success.
The San Anita raining company have carried
on their operations on the most extensive scale,
and have realized very handsomely fur their labors. They are now engaged in sinking a shaft,
which has penetrated to the depth of eighty feet,
for the purpose of prospecting a hill. Tliey have
washed out two or three gulches, and by the hydraulic process. Further improvements now being
projected, will give them an extensive and highly
profitable field of labor during tbe next winter.

sum of mouey in constructing a sewer, fer the
drainage ofthe city. This is one ofthe essentials
of all cities, and nothiug can be more proper than
a well conducted system of drainage. But it appears the sewer empties ou laud which is private
property, and a requisition has been made to the
Mayor, to abate the nuisance, particularly as regards the Bella Union Hotel. Hitherto, there
has been an Ordinance preventing the emptyin
of slops into the public watercourses of the cify,
but it is well known that such a provision cannot
be carried out. The proprietors of the Bella
Union obtained the permission of the anthorities
and connected with the main sewer, aod we do not
see wby they should be complained of more than
auy one else. If the owner of the lot insists on
the abatement of tbe nuisance, the city must be at
the expense of continuing fhe sewer—but where
will they conduct it, if not into tbe zanja ? This
is a question requiring the careful deliberation of
the Council, and of the utmost importance to the
cleanliness and health of our rapidly increasing
population.
San  Bernardino  Correspondence,
BAS temtw*anpwij May 10th.
Editor Star—Nothing of interest has transpired
of late to disturb the peace and harmony of our
citi/ens.
Our City election came oil'yesterday, but was not
characterized by lhat spirited political feeling
which generally prevails on all such occasions. The
toial nnmber ui votes polled was seventy-seven.
The following is tiie result j —
For Mayor—U.K. Pearcc, 60J E G.Sanders, 11-
Common Council—John Brown, tbi ; G. L. Kingston, US ; II. Roof-i(); S. A. Buck, 50: LI. Yager,

Board or' Si')"::-.vinous.—After a fessron of [ma
cek the Bortrd adjourned, having accomplished a
great dci:l of business in funding the county indebt-
edneSH, in accordance with an act, of the Legislature. Thev also made the following appointments:
H. C. Russell, Difttriet Attorney ; H. G. Sherwood,
Surveyor; A. S Beard, Coroner ; F. ii. J, Marge t-
sm, Constable.
Indian Dbi'reiutii.ns.—A band of Mojave Indian-; made a descent upon Lane's Fort, at the crossing of the Mojave river. They overpowered Mr.
Lane, and others living at the Fort, and then ransacked the houses, dispossessing the occupants of
all their worldly goods. Surely it is high time that
oor Government should adopt some eflicieut means
-O prevent these Indian outrages, that are (rally
being committed in our midst, and afford that protection to our citizens which U guaranteed to them
by the Constitution of their country.
Hon. G. N. Whitman arrived bere last night; he
was accompanied by quite a large number of onr
citizens, who went out several miles, for the purpose of meeting and escorting the Hon. gentleman
into the city. Upon his arrival he was surrounded i
by a host of friends, ready to extend to him a hearty ;
welcome, which I am sure he well deserves.
Walkinshaw, Wolff k Co. hove just received a
large and splendid assortment ot spring end summer goods. They have opened in their new store,
and are now offering great inducement;-, to the public in the way of fine goods of the latest fashions
and at reduced prices. This is now ono of tho finest
establishment, on the Southern coast.
Company E, Sixth Infantry, being a portion of
Col. Hoffman's command, arrived here tliis evening,
commanded by Lieut. Clark. They are encamped
on the Sauta Ana river, there to await the arrival
of Capt. Garnett, with the balance of the command.

The Farm, the Vineyard, kc—The effect of the
frosts and cold winds has been to blast, in a great
measure, the wheat and barley crops, hut such
portion as would not mature has been cut down
for feeding purposes, which will form a great addition to the short crop of hay,
Tbe depredations of the cut-worm on the vine
have not been as extensive as waa at first dreaded'
Wo understand that a full crop of grapes is expected, from tbe present healthy aud'flourishing
condition of the vines, the injury having been sustained by but a small portion cf the stock.
The general fruit crop is iu a favorable condition. Peaches are uninjured; apricots are in a
forward state ; apples aud pears doing well, with
promise of an abundant crop. Tbe orange trees
hare suffered a good deal from the depredations of

Arrival of Messrs, ileale arid Bisliop.
Lieut. E. F. Beale, in charge- of the construction
ofthe centra! wagon road, arrived here on Thursday afternoon. He was accompanied by A. S.
Bishop, Esq., wbo met him about 300 miles cast of
the Colorado, Both gentlemen are in excellent
health,
Lieut. Beale left the San Francisco mount;
for the purpose of obtaining supplies, which had
been cached by Mr. Bishop, but ou coming to the
place found they had beeu taken up. It was ne-
cessary to hurry en here to send back provisions:
as his men, and Mr, Bishop's party, are on short
allowance. A part of the emigrant company w
were driven back by the Indians last year, are in
the party.
Mr. Bishop will go up to Sau Francisco, aud on
his return, will set out to complete the woik on
the wagon road,

Drs. Myles & Small.—We direct attention to
the advertisement ofthese gentlemen, to be found
in our columns to day. They have completed
their store, wdiich has been finished in a very
tasteful and handsome maimer, and is one of the
driest establishments ofthe bind tobe found out
o! San Fraucisco. Tlieir atock' cl drugs and medicines is extensive, and the business ofthe establishment will be conducted under tlie personal
supervision o'the proprietors. We have uo doubt,
bu*, that, amongst the establishments ofthe Same
kind in the city, Drs. Myles & Small will obtain
a fair share ol popular patronage and support.-
Hon. G. N. Whitman, memlftr of'Assembly for
San Bernardino county, who had been here for a
few days, left town tbis week for his home. From
the letter of our San Bernardino correspondent, it
will be eeen that, bis friends gave him a most hearty reception. Tbey cannot have a more lit or in-
tlueiitial member in tlie Legislature, and we have
no itoubt but they will again avail themselves of
his services.

ERANGIS   MELLUS,
UAVING purchased lhe patent right of the above
valuable invention, for the purpose of supplying the counties df Log Angelesj San Bernardino
•\aA Sail'Diego, is now prepared to execute all orders with which he may be favored.
The public are aitare that it has been The study ol
-■c-ieiitiiie men, architects and builderSj for many years
to discover an article for Roofing purposes, that will
Withstand suddeii changes ot climate, be impervious
to water, and of aiirS protection against Are. The
inventor of this '-ooSng labored many years to cotn^-
'■line articles wliich would answer the above purpose
and obviate the difficulties of rust and decay attendant upon tin and shingles, and the destruction by
the sun and frost of the various compositions used
fbr roofing. This he succeeded in doing, and now,
ilfter six years of. the severest trial we would invite
the careful attention of all interested in such mutters,
believing that they will be fully convinced of its
practical value both for durability and economy, in
which respects we believe that its equal is not at
present known. This roofing can readily be applied
to roof's of every description; cither steep or flat,-and
Can be put On over shingles or tin, being much cheaper than the first stud at half the cost of the latter;

elastic and durable. After the canvass, as prepared;
Is put upon the roof, another coating ol mastic,which

The AfiTHrtrt of SWebt Homb.—The following,
from a newspaper of 1853, gives some interesting
incidents in the life of the author of 'SweetHome.'
"As I sit ia my garret here in Washington,
watching the course ot great men and the destiny
of party, I often meet with strange contradictions
in thie eventful life.
"The most rematkablS was that of J, Howard
Payne, the author of 'Sweet Home.' I knew him
intimately. He occupied tbe room under mo for
some time, and his conversation was so captivat
mg that I often spent whole days in his apartment.
He was an applicant for oflice at the time—Consul
at Tunis—from wbich be had been removed. What
a sad thing it was to see the poet subjected to all
the humiliation of office seeking! Of an evening
he would walk tbe streets. Ou such occasions be
would give me a history of his wanderings, his
trials, and all Cares incident to his sensitive nature and poverty.
" 'How often,-' said be, once, 'I have been in the
heart of Paris, Berlin and London, or some other
city, and heard persons singing, or band-organ
playing, Home Sweet Home, without having a
shilling to buy the next meal or a place to lay my
head. The world has literally sung my song until every heart is familiar with its melodies. Yet
I have been a wanderer from my boyhood. My
country lias turned me ruthlessly from oflice, and
in my old age I have to submit to humiliation for
my bread.'
"Thus he would complain of his hapless lot His
only wish was to die in a foreign land, to be buried
by strangers, and sleep in obscurity. Poor I'nyiur:
his wish was realized. He died at Tunis. His remains should be be brought to thi;; country, and a
monument erected lo him by tbe homeless.

are wholly without government, Thai lo the entire country from the Rio Grande to the Colorado,
a distance of si* hiimired mtteseaat and west, and
a like db-tanoo norih and south, there are no
courts, no civii ulliceis, no law, and that crime
stalks abroad in our midst in open dav.
We have shown that immigrant trains have been
attacked by ratlins savages, and driven b.ie.k v. ilh
great loss of life and property; leaving destitute
women and children to wend their way back in
doubt aud dread .through an almost trackless waste-
and that others less fortunate, have all been slain
men and children wcrebarberously murdered, when'
struggling in defence of Wives and mothers, while
tbe wives and mothers were ravished  to  death.
Wc have tiioiVn tha! armed Mex;e.e::s have invaded our territory, ami stained our soil with Amer
ican blood ; that Mexican cut-throats and outlaws,
under cover ot night, have- brutally murdered and
mangled the bodies of our citizens in charge o-
bur mail stations; ami that marauding parties ol
ruthless savages and baibnrotia Mexicans infes.
our entire territory, deluging tbe couutry in
blood, driving olf our herds, producing constant
dread and alarm in onr midst, preventing immigration, impoverishing our people, and depopula-
Notwithstanding all this, the doors of DoDgrefl"1,
to us, have been closed—the ears of ibose high in
power have been deaf to our cries for relief i and
to the scenes of blood and carnage, here presented
have they shut their ..-yes with seeming iudi Her ence
and evident contempt.
Therefore, be' it Resolved, That we, tho citizens
of Arizona City, aud vicinity, invoking the guidance aud protection of Divine Providence, do
hereby solemnly (leinidnc, with lhe consent and
co-operation of our fellow citizens thfOOghooJ our
Territory, to establish and maitain a government
for ouselves.
Stcoju/.That we earnestly request our felio.v citizens iu all parts ofthe Territory to unite with us,
in this effort to redeem our adopted country from
the ravages of crime and supine negligence.
Third, That we hereby recommend to our fellow citizens, lhat an election ba held at suitable
places througlltout the Territory, ou Monday the
30th hist ,for the election ofdelegates to a Territorial Convent'on, lo he held at Tucson, on Monday
the 27th day of June proximo—and that Arizona
City elect six, and Gila City elect four Delegates
lo said Convention.
Fourth, That we also recommend thai said T. r-
ritoaial Convention, when convened and organized, shall have full power lo adopt an Organic
Law, for the future government of the Territory,
to apportion the representation, und. Ifdflpmed
necessary, to elect, temporarily, the various officers of tbe Territory ; and to do such oiher acts
and things, as Baid convention shall deem meet
and proper.
FifEi. That this Territory now contalnsalarger
population, than did eilhei;KunMs. Nebraska or
Washington, at the lime ot their organization ,
and that the opposition to our territorial organization, on tho ground of a deficiency of population, roust be regarded as tbe result either ol ignorance or fanaticism.
Sixth, That if our population is less lhan represented, wc arc tbe more entitled to governmental
protection/for the many can protect themselves—
the few cannot.
Seventh, The United States Tax collectors are
located, almost everywhere In our midst ; thus i"
the government re-asserting the odious, repudiated
English doctrine of'-taxation without representation."
