We aie indebted to a gentleman of Wheeling for permission to make the following extracts from a private letter. They are a very fast people in California. Tbey not only bnild towns there quicker than in any other part of creation, but, it will be seen from the extracts below, they only re quire two hours to burn down a whole town. Ga.iss Valley, Cal. ) Sept. 18, 1855. \ Dear Sia:?Since I iast wrote you our State election has been held. The entire K. N. ticket has been carred by about 6,000 majority, while they also have in the Slate Legislature about 30 of a majority on joint ballot, and a great majority of the counties have also carried their entire county tickets/ which is considered a most thorough route of theJJigler and Broderick democracy. In Neva da county the K. N.'shave elected their District Judge, who is a good many and will make a most excellent Judge. ?'A fire broke out here 011 the night of the 13th inst., at 111 o'clock, in the French House on the Nevada side of the ravine, and in exactly two hour3 all the business part o! Grass Valley was in ruins, with the following exceptions: One Cre proof store below the Atla,, and four fire proof buildings at the corner of Main and Mill streets. Over half a million was lost forever in the short space of two hours; but. to show you the recupe rative nature of our people, two Jays and a half have only elapsed siuce the fire, and now 23 new business houses grace our streets, and they are hauling lumber to the ground for over 100 more; for all of which, and millions of feet more, our mills 111 the outskirts can furnish lumber. The houses going up are temporary, mere shelters for persons and goods, until better buildings can be put up. Five fire proofs have already been contract ed for, and loads of brick and stone ate already being dumped at the different locations in which they are to be built. One singular instance of the fire was, that not a boarding house, hotel, or bakery was left standing, while not a single church was burnt; the former being aU in the business portion, while the churches were in the outskiits of the city. The fire extended over about 35 acres, of ground, in which there was not a vacancy. Over 400 good houses were burnt, besides outhouses. The Trouble between the U. S. Consul at Panama and the Governor. The fact that Thomas W. Ward, F?-q., United States consul at Panama, had struck his flag in consequence of an insult offered by the governor of the province has already been briefly mentioned. The facts in the case are thus given in the Pana ma Star, of the 2d inst. The consul applied nome days ago to the Jefe superkr for certain information respecting an A metican then in prison, and was inlormed that that officer was unable to attend to his duties oil account of rheumatism, and, moreover, that he t.ad not the required information in his possession, as the case was in the hands of the governor, and could not be procured tor two or three days. 111 order to avcid all possible delay, the consul then wrote to the eovernur on the subject, and the governor handed the letter to the Interpreter lor translation. After a delay of four days, during which time it is presumed the governor had con sulted with the Jefe superior, the letter was re turned to the consul unanswered. Another letter was then addressed by the Con sul to the Governor, also embodied in the protest, desiring to know, in writing, why his first letter was thus returned, and to this no other reply was made than a return of the letter unopened, and a verbal message to the effect that it could not be received. This return of both his communica tions, without any explanation, was of course considered bv the Consul as au intentional and pointed insult, not to himself, but to his Govern ment; and as lie very naturally concluded that any further application that he might make to the authorities would be treated in a similar manner, he decided that the indignity thus offered was such as should be promptly brought before his Govern ment, and as would not admit of his holding any further communication direct with the authorities of New Granada. The protest was read by the Consul to a number of his countrymen who were present to witness the proceeding, and simultane ously therewith it was forwarded to the Jefe Su perior, and the flag of the United States was hauled down from the Consulate, not tube hoisted a^ain until instructions are received from Wash ington. We learn that the consul has sent information of thia proceedidg to the commander of the steam slonp of war Massachusetts, now on this coast, and that this vessel may very soon be expected heie, to remain for the protection of Americans until the affair is settled; and we have satisfaction in stating that the course pursued by the consul is considered by his countrymen here as the only one he coald adopt, and is highly approved of by them; and that tnose of the native population, who have been made cognizant with the fjtets as they really aie, feel ^mortified and indignat at the outrage which has been committed on the consul. It appears.from the consul's protest that the name of the imprisoned American is Win. II. Hunter, who is now in prison at Panama, on a charge of breach of trust prefered against him by Mr. G. M. Totton, and is about to be sent to As pinwall, there to te kept in prison until a judg ment be given in the case by the authorities of that place. Mr. Ward shows by au extract of a letter from the acting consul at Aspinwall, that the af fair had been settled by arbitration, it having been decidtd that Hunter should pay a man named Cal lagban, to whom he was indebted, $3,000. To this Callaghan in the presence of the acting con sul, agreed, whereupon Hunter paid him a por tion in cash, and gave security and notes (not ye* matured) for the balance. The Governor has .written a letter explaining that he returned the cousul's letter because it contained a disrespectful intimation against him, and also because it was not in his* power to settle such business, it having been reserved by treaty to the General Government. The Governor sub sequently sent in bis resignation. A 6 ICO.ID Wit it Firi-I>.?Recent English jour nals mention that ? young preacher of the Meth odist Church, is creating as much excitement as Irving and Whitfield did in their day. The Lon don correspondent of. the New York Sunday Times ?ays: "His name is Spurgen, and he can scarcely have reached his22d year, I should think, ilis eloquence Is extraordinary?it overwhelms you with ila force and brilliancy; and his voice has the characteristics which Whitfield's is said to have possessed?a ringing tone, and capable of being heard by an assembledge of ten thousand persons." / ITThe SU Louis Democrat says:?"Let old and young remember that on the 6th day of October, 1365, there was n bard snow storm in the city of St. Louis." The storm is described as a seveie one. Also on Friday morning laat four inches of snow bad fallen in Ostego county, N. Y. On the 4lb inst. suow fell in De Kalb county, Illinois. jyTtackeray was to leave England for the United States, October Ut. A complimentary dinner was to be riven to him in London on the H'h, at which Charlr; pirnens would preside. Messrs. Editors : The enclosed Ielter (from the Philadelphia North American) of the veteran Commodore Stew art, will show you how a similar attempt to deci mate the Navy in President Polk's timtf, to that which has lately prevailed under bis successor, was regarded by that gallant 6fficer, as we think it will yet be by all whose personal and political interests are not ot variance with the honorable and remunerative consideration a grateful couutry owes to its defenders. If we mistake not, the failure of this iuquisition-like procedure on the i former occasion, was mainly attributable to the ; justly odiou9 tight in which it was placed by this letter of the Commodore, which, though now too late to prevent, should be republished to expose J injustice, aggravated by delay; as it finds its sub jects more advanced in years, and further disqual ified by habit aud seivice from adopting other professions, or means whereby they may obtain -subsistence for themselves, aud for those who are dependent on them. **Oh ! belter that their shattered hulks Should rest beneath the wave;?

The Naval Board?protest of 'Old Ironsides' SoUinn Declaration and Protest of Commodore ; Stewart a gainst the Proceedings of a Board of i Nacal Officers assembled at Washington, on i July 2lst, 1S4G. i The Won. Secretary of the Navy, in a communi cation to m??, daled J u'y 11, 1846, directed me to j repair to Washington, "to enable the department to avail itself of the advice of officers of expe j rience. | On the assembling of the convention of officers | on the'ilst inst., he addressed a communication to j us individually ard collectivciy, requiring us to j 'express your (our) opinion, whether in your (our) I judgment, promotions in the navy should be made j with exclusive reference to seniority,' &c. On considering the form aud language of these commit mcaiiotis, it was evident to me tnat the Sec retary of the Navy required our individual opinion in regard to the matters submitted to us in his com munication of the 21st instant. Fully impressed with this conviction, I suggested to this couven tioi; that each officer present should lie required to give his individual opinion on all matters then be tore it; which proposition this convention did not accede to, but proceeded toe institute itself aboard or tribunal, wherein the voices of the minority should be stifled, aud the vote of the majority oi the officers assembled should decide all questions that were to be acted upon by it. If anything were wanting to render this proceed ing 0:1 the part of the Board more ojectionable, it may be found in the fact that the efforts that were made to defeat it were not in some cases con sidercd, and in no case were they placed on the r cord; and nowhere is there to be found an in dication of the opinion or vote of a single member on the subject. I hat this course was not in conformity with the views or wishes of the Hon. Secretary of the Na vy, is made manifest by a reference to his subse quen* communication on other matters submit ted for our opinions, wherein I am addressed singly as the presiding officer of the Board, and in lan guage which required me to express our joint opinion expressly as a Board. Had the Hon. Secretary so required our joint opinions on the matter first submitted to us, he would have expressed himself equally explicit.? His requirements then, as communicated to us in his letter of the2lst inst., not having b?en com plied with, I feel it my duty to meet them, so <ar as it shall lie in my power, and after the manner which to me shall seein most proper. No board r.f officers, however pure, is compe tent to pass upon the professional and moral quali. fi cat ions of any officer, whether for promotion or for any other purpose, unless under all the solemn obligations of oath to do justice?a close aud steady investigation into whatever demerits may be alleged, aided ty all the lights cf testimony in his behalf ns well as ngaiust him, and a patient hearing of whatever he n.ay have to advaucs in extenuation or defence. Our naval organization is such that it is hardly possible that the officers composing a board could have much personal knowledge of the qualifica tions or disqualifications o! those whose claims for pronn tion are to beconsideied. To illustratr this remark I will state thai, of the fifteen officers whose naiues have been p.issed upon by this Board, I have no peisonal knowledge of thequah fi cat ions of more than two of them, although I I have numbered more than forty-eight years o? ! service, twenty-three of which have been passed at sea. Most of tl.em were unknown to me even by namd; and as the remainder of the officers composing this Board average a sea service ot but eighteen and a half years, it is hignlypr. bable thai a majority of the Board never had an c pportunity of lorming .in opinion of them from personal knowledge in any one case. Yet notwithstanding this, this Board, by a joint and secrete ballot, has j recunmendrd the promotion of certain officers, to the injury of others, and that certain other officers should be considered unworthy of promotion al together. The adoption of the joint and secret ballot has gone far to render the proceed inn of this Board justly obnoxious. It has assumed for itself the de testable attributes of the Star Chamber. Not rec ognized by any taw, nor under the protection of any law?without even the obligation of an oath 1 to do justice to the officer on whose claims it has passed, or to the service?without any evidence of their merits or disqualifications, or without assigning any reasons for its opinions, either in dividually or collectively?it has given condem I natory judgement on the reputations of nun long in the service of the country, (one of whom is now abroad serving with distinction,) emphatically in timating that they shall not be promoted, and thus virtually disgracing them forever in public esti mation. j There is nothing so precious to an officer as his leputaticn. When arraigned for alleged offences j be ft?re a court martial fie earnestly, and at a gre=?t Ci st, seeks his vindication. He donfrouts his ac cusers, he objects to his judges, he offers his wit nesses, his explanations of defence, ami the truth is sifted. The judges are under oath to decide ac cording to law, the evidence and their consciences; and after a fair and impartial trial, the punishment, if any, falls upon Mm sanctioned by law. And yet such punishment by court martial can rarely surpass in severity and in its effects the judgement pronounced by this Board?a Board sitting iu se cret conclave?their victim abroad, and unheard in his defence; without charges against him, without evidence of any kind, acting on suspicion or hear say; without personal knowledge of hisyi|ualifica tions, and many of ils members, perhaps, influenc ed by personal prejudices and enmities. Before such a tribunal no one would be safe. A clique, or eveu a single member of a board, might bring irreparable injury upon the prospectsoi'any officer in the service. Such proceedings, so contrary to all received notions of propriety and public justice ami so opposed to the principles of our governor, I, for one, could never contenance or be a party to. No other course was, therefoie, lift to me, in the various ballots for the selettion of officeis for promotion, than to mark on every ballot?I de cline to vote. In furiher iliustra'ion of this hasty andobnoxi ou? mode of dispatching officers and disposing of their reputations, I will here state that, in one case papers were presented from the files of the Department calculated to create prejudice against the officer whose fate was to be passed upon?pa pers having uo claim to the character of evidence in any court of honor or justice?and yet, 01 the same time, other papersof testimonials and charac ter high'y favorable to the individual, and desig nated as such in the synopsis accompanying the case, were never presented to the Board. Yet so desirous do I find myself to comply, so far as it is within my competence, with the requi sition of the Hou. Secretary of the Navy, that I feel it my duty to state explicitly my opinion up on the chief inquiry propounded, ou the decision of which rests his subsequentrcquimients. These also, I conceive, fully responded to in the opinion I have now the honor to give. The Hon. Secretary's main propcM-io'i, upon which depend all others embodied 111 his letter of the 21st of July, 1846, is in the following words: "You will express your opinion whether, in your judgment, promotion in the Navy should be made with reference to seniority." In obedience to the injunction contained in this paragraph, I give it as my op'nion that pro motion should always be made with exclusive ref erence to seniority, except where great gallantry before an enemy shall entitle the officer to the ex alted distinction of a preference over his peers, or where immediate guilt or incompetence shall be declared to exist by a tribunal legally and express ly constituted to determine the question.

For more than twelve years altci leaving college, we were laboring seriously under tliese two affliction*. lit thespiingof 1833. our health became so delicate that it was with gieat difficulty we could at lend to the ordinaiy duties of our profession. Eveiy thing we ale immediately turned acid; our digestive or guns became wholly deranged; losing as it seemed to us all their activity and vitality; we were constantly depress ed in spi til; our eneigy almost forsook ua, and nothing but necessity urged us on to action. 44 We hail taken stro-ig medicines, observed great par licuUrtty in our diet, and all >o no purpose. We had de spaired of ever tecovering our health when a letnale ft icud of ours importuned us to get a bottle ol Hampton's Vegetable I incture, assuring usthal we wo.>ld find great mlief from t*s use. We briefly replied, *ire uould not gireadohar for all the Tincture H.n.pton ever made, so tar as our own ind.vidual hca'.th was concerned.' We had no laitlt in it or any other medicine iu effecting a cuie onus. In Hie kindness of her heart, however, without consulting its about it, she sent and got one bottle and urged us to accept of it, and for her i>ahe, as it could not possibly injuie us, to use it according to direction. For the high regard we had for Iter and her act of kindness, we promised to do so And without I he least exaggera tion we cau truly say t hat before we had used the couteui* of one bottle we fell like a U".v man. 44We used, consecutively, lroiu ten to fifteen bottles ?
