Duty of the Whig Party.The Connecticut Courant, in an article

on this subject, savs that under the exis-ting circumstances of our party, the firstmatter of advice is that we should perse-vere in our exertions. Defeat we haveexperienced before. Some of our most

distinguished victories have been obtainedafter a series of desheartening defeats.Encouraged by unlooked for success, andaided by the feeling that such victories

showed that their principles would be

perpetual, our opponents have often actedout their real views and lost their supre-macy. It will be so now. Some ultra

radical measure, some movement, calcu-

lated to open the eyes of the more con-

servative of their party, will mark their

progress the coming session of Congress.It has always been so, and will be so

again. Men, intoxicated by the supposedsuccess of their measures, can never rest

without rushing into some ultraism of im-

prudence, that will change the current

o!~ public opinion.But there is no necessity of discourage- j

ment for lite future. In Massachusetts,

if the election had been held upon thesame principles that it is everywhere out

of New England, Mr. Winthrop wouldhave been elected by 20,000 majority. In

New York, an even vote in a poll ofhalf a million is no discouraging sign. In

Pennsylvania, a vote of one hundred and

seventy thousand is 110 despicable capitalto open shop with another year. Intlhio, the whole vote at the late election, jwas 30,000 less than in the Presidentialc mipaign of 1814, with an increased num-ber of voters in the State. There isno question where the deficiency fell.

Let no one be disheartened. An ad-

herence to our fundamental principles willbring again to our banner our scatteredranks, swelled likewise by the faults and

follies of our opponents.Another duly is to head our divisions,

as soon as possible. Every means that

honest men can employ should be used to

harmonize discordant opinions, to gather

together again all scattered friendships,and to bind the party once more in one

brotherhood. Forbearance of disagree-ment is necessary on both sides. Thereare points enough fox agreement without

dwelling upon minor differences. There

are important principles enough to coalesce,without makiug "one idea" the basis ofour actions.

From the Baltimore American.

The Revolution in France-

It would be to indulge in vague 4?ou-

lectures to attempt to prognosticate the ul-

timate result of Louis NAPOLEON'S boldusurpation in France. The daring char-

acter of the act will no doubt commend it

to the admiration of the French people,who, with all their love of liberty, are

subject to the fascination of power reso-lutely wielded and surrounded with eclul.

The extension of the right of suffrageto the whole people by President Box.v-PARTE'S Proclamation may have the cfiect

of confusing the issue which otherwisewould have been distinct between the ad-

herents of Louis NAPOLEON on the one

hand and the democratic and socialistparties on the other. The Presidenthimself claims to rule in the name of the

people, and may declare himself as good

a democrat as any one. Hut the hostileelements arc powerful in France, and now

that the matter has catne to an arbitrament

of force, the adversaries of the Presidentwill have to make up their minds to a de-cisive struggle. They have the means110 doubt of a sharp conflict and perhapsa protracted one.

liut we need not apprehend in Franceitself, we think, the recurrence of any of

those shocking excesses which have at-

tended revolutions and civil wars heretofore

in that country and in other parts of

Europe. There is no royalty with its

interwoven affinities to be uprooted as

will he the case in Germany, Italy and

Hungary, when the people will rise

against their hereditary rulers there. Wemay look, however, by every arrival from

Europe to hear of interesting events.?

The lirst chapter of a new volume in the

history of European affairs has opened?-who can venture to judge in advance of

the closing one ? 1 ime onl} can disclose.

A HOUSE CLOWN UP.? Mr. George Ralston,of King's Creek, Hancock county, Va., a lew

days ago, purchased a keg of powder lor the

purpose ol blasting rocks, and placed itin Ins

cell :r for safe keeping. During his absence,

his little son, aged sic years, not being aware of

the consequences, applied a torch to the keg,

and instantly tho whole building was blown to

atoms, and the boy, with another child, killed,and ten others seriously injured.

FftOM CALIFORNIA.I he steamer Daniel Webster arrived at

; New N ork on Monday morning, from SanJuan de Nicaragua, bringing advices fromSan 1 rancisco to the 10th ult,, fifteen days

I later.

I The mining accounts continue highly favora-? ble.

Sheriff Buclianan had been shot at tlie Sono-| rian camp, near Sacramento, by a party consist-

I i n S chietly of Mexican marauders. The Vigi-: lance Committee for Sacramento were active in

the matter, and had made several arrests. Ttie! last report says that the Sheriff had died of his

wounds.! Several other murders had been committed in

the neighborhood of Marysvilie and Sacramento| by the Mexicans.

A large number of miners have been drivenby the rains to seek winter quarters in San Fran-

-1 cisco. The rains have flooded ttie cellars andstreets in the lower part of the city.

The most prominent topic of discussion is the! much agitated question of the division of the

State Much difference of opinion exists, butj nothing definite had been done except the draw-

I ing up of an address to the Legislature by the; Santa Barbara Convention. Many believe thatslavery must be introduced into Southern Cali-fornia, and therefore countenance the divisionproject.

An Indian disturbance had occurred at Los| Angelos, arising out of the Indian game calledthe Peon. The Americans and Californiuns

; killed eight Indians, and a uumberof whites werei injured.

The agriculturists were busy in different sec-: tions of the State, preparing the ground for thenext year's crop, which it is expected will bemore abundant than ever.

In the South the vintage has fully commenced,and th vine growers are busily engaged in gath-ering grapes and converting them into wine andbrandy. The quantity manufactured will beimmense.

A large number of persons are daily leavingCalifornia; many being bound for the gold re-gion in Australia. The Sidney papers are tilledto overflowing with the most glowing accountsof the gold mines near that city, and of the dis-covery of many new and extensive rich dig-gings.I 1! e whale shipment of specie for the fort-

night will probably be between two and a halfand three millions, including that in the handsof passengers.

The papers are less filled with the horriblethan usual, which argues well for the prosperityof the State.

SAW FRANCISCO, NOV. 15, 1851.? Since mydespatches of the Ist instant, we have little ofinterest to note. Everything remains quiet; noexcitement in trade or politics, while our socialstate in general is improving.

Immense quantities of hay were destroyed bythe rains on the Bth inst., both lieie, and in theinterior, w here there are no barns and sheds?-the hay being in bundles prepared for market.The losses on hay shipped to tins country from

the Atlantic, will be large the present season.The arrivals are considerable, while there is nosale for it, a decided preference being given fornative hay, of which the crop in California ismore than sufficient for her own wants, and hasbeen sold as low as §ls to S2O per ton, qualitysuperior.

Our city continues to improve, by the erectionof a large number of first-class brick and stonetire-proof buildings in ail parts of the city, butmore especially on lots recently filled up withsand, extending far out into the Bay?the foun-dations of which arc not of the most solid char-acter, and many of the buildings thus erected(the foundations being laid on plank . have set-tled bodily from one to two feet.

Farmers in the Atlantic States would do wellto get some seed of our " Burr clover, ' which isof luxuriant grow th, yields immensely of burrs,each of which contains a number of seeds, andupon them the cattle of our hills eat and growfat, when to all appearances they are feedingupon a barren waste. Oftentimes the ground iscovered to the depth of several inches with theseed, which is very nutritious, being of an oilysubstance, and that in great abundance.

Would any of your millers, who are crampedby trifling profits at the least, coaic out here anderect a large grist mill, they would be doing theSta'e some service; and what is better for themindividually, stand a good chance of lining theirown pockets with the shining gold. Any quan-tity of superior wheat, rye, barley and oats canbe raised here; had we only inilis to grind theformer, we would soon be quite independent ofChili and other foreign ports.

Mr. Shelton has a new variety of barley thatis certainly the most extraordinary ever raised.The grains are nearly double the usual size?-plumpand firm. A few of the seed were broughtfrom Russia by a Frenchman, from which tie

raised in this Stale a small crop. It yieldsseventy-five bushels to the acre, each bushelweighing sixty-six pounds. The few bushel-,thus raised at Bear Creek, were purchased forseed at twenty-five cents per pound, a smallsample of which I send to New York, whichwill be exhibited at your Corn Exchange.

At ten o'clock this evening we fiaii a heavyrain, accompanied by strong southerly winds,and we may now consider the rainy season fair-lycommenced. Immediately preceding the fail-ing of rain, " the earth shook and trembled" foran instant, being the third shock of an earth-quake distinctly heard in our city, and ot courseduly recorded, within the last four davs.
