From tho papers we gleen the following
intelligence :
The second Overland Mail conch Arrived
in this city yesterday afternoon shortly
efter 4 o’clock, (having left St. Louis on
the 20th September,) end I“ received by
the citizens with grant enthusiasm. The
new of the nrrivnl of the mail It San Jose
was telegraphed It nbont l 1 o’clock in the
morning. And I! it spread nmong the citi
zens, public expect-tion wee Housed, end
the most lively interest an excited. It
we: understood that the coach would arrive
about half past 4 o‘clock, end long before
thnt hour the Itreets were throngod by
thou-any of people, congregeted to wel
come it. A number of personl nleo mount
ed fut horses and rode outto meet it.
At a quarter after 4 o’clock the coach
turned from Malket into Montgomery
street. The driver blew his horn and
cracked his whip; at which the horses,
four in number, almost seemed to partake
of his enthusiasm, and dashed ahead at a
cluttering pace, and the dust flew from the
glowing w eels. At the same time a shout
was raised, that raa with the rapidity of
an electrlc flash along Montgomery street,
which throughout its length was crowded
by an excited populace. As the coach
dashed along through the crowds, the hats
of the spectators were whirled in the air
and the hurrah was repeated from a thou
sand throats, responsive to which, the dri
\er, the lion of the occasion, dofl'ed his
weather-beaten old slouch, and in uncovered
dignity, like the victor of an Olympic race,
guided his foaming team towards the Post
Office. It is safe to say that no returning
conqueror, loaded with barbaric spoils,
ever called forth a more unanimous burst
of applause than did the dust~begrimed
Delos Cole, "who brought the good news.”
As the coach sped along Mont emery
street, Monumental Engine Co. %o. 6
fired a salute in honor of the event from
the Plaza. As it reached the Post on“,
at the instance of Postmaster Weller, the
assembled crowd gave three cheers. After
delivering the mails, the coach proceed to
the Plaza, where more cheers were given,
and more enthusiasm exhibited. Susi

omrn.-——The latest news we have of the
Atlantic Telegraph, says the Memphis
Appeal of the 16th September, is contained
in a dispatch from Washington, dated Sep
tember 14th, informing us that London
letters, r steamer Vanderbilt, say, “ Pro
fessor my". will leave for Trinity Bay
on the Bth, with confidence that he can
make the Cable work and transmit from
three to six words per minute." His arri
val may, therefore, be looked for in a day
or two, and soon thereafter we may expect
a solution of the problem. Will the line
work 7 In the meantime, we must content
ourselves with the murance of the electri
ciana'that although communication has
been suspended for some days, the insula
tion is still perfect. One thing is certain,
the English instruments have proved a
complete failure, and Prof. Whitehonse and
his assistants, after cxperimeutiag, without
interruption, for more than a month, have
finall‘i given up in despair. The public
coafi ence is daily waning, and doubts are
freely expressed that Prof. Hughes will not
be able to overcome the difliculties which
Whiteboase encountered, and which he
could not successfully resist.
Another and later account says: We
are at last furnished with a reason why the
Atlantic‘Cable is not working. The com
pany appears to have been taken by sur
prise iu the successful laying of the long
wire, and so have omitted provision for a
sionter and stronger strand required at
either terminus, to save the line from the‘
dangers of shallow water. This heavyi
cable was only shipped from London, un-i
dcr the charge of Mr. Clifford, at the first
of this month. Hie instructions were to
make the substitution at the Valentin end
forthwith, and then to proceed to Trinity
Bay—e task requiring at least three or
four weeks in the fulfilment. The London
papers of Sept. 1, announce accordingly,
that at the end of three weeks the line
would be ready for pnblic use, and that the
London celebration would be reserved for
that occasion.
A recent decision of the Secretsry of the
Interior recites thnt preemption to town
sites on public lands are to accrue to the
benefit of actual occnpsnte nsturslly drum

practice of the Land Depsrtment,'which

by recognizing their bogus occupants ss

dreds of speculstive sites sud thenssnds of

of Mr. Thompson. Though it is scanned

October, Ist, 1858.
The first column of the commend under
Col. Wright. arrived st this point to-dsy,
and will he followed by the second end Inst
column to-morrow, under the immediate
supervision of the Colonel. You Inst heard
of the genersl movement of the expedition
on the south fork of the Spokane, whence
the troops, marching southward in the di
rection of the Pelonse for three days, halt
ed, nnd were met by n large band of Pu
louse lndiaus suing for pence. These were
accompanied by about twenty-five lodges of
renegade Nez Perces, who had met and
fought Col. Steptoe, and who were engaged
in all the battles fought by Col. Wright.
Here the Indisns ngsin met with con~
dign punishment. The Ooh, assembling
them, demsuded first the murderers of the
miners on the Pelouse, in early spring of the
present year; when they immedlltely sur
rendered, end in the presence of the ensem
bled tribes the Colonel ordered them to be
hung. He next demsnded the men who
had stolen the Government cattle during
the month of July from the Wells-walla;
and so perfectly subdued have they now
become that they too, without hesitsncy
wx given up. and they too met with n
li fntg’nnd the Colonel pointing to these
men thus hung, told them that e similsr_
fete nwnited each And every transgression
of the tribe iuall time to come. He then
demanded n number of hostages and priso
ners, which being willingly given, he told
the reminder now to disperse to their
hunting sud fishing grounds, sud thnt if
they continued fsithfnl to the many verbal
promises thoy hsd slrendy mndo thnt in the
early spring n written trenty of pence
would be made, end not before. _ _
Thu! and: the campaign against the hos-I
tile Cmur d'Alene, Spokane, Pelouae, and
Nez Perce band: of Indians, which the
lroopl were lent. out to complete—B cum
paign u fraught with brilliant. nnd success
ful achievements that we are u I lean to
point to in equal 'in “no wholo hintory of‘
onl-Alndinn warfare.
Prompt and decisive in his general move-i
meats, Col. Wright allowed no gap to oc-‘
cur through which a. reverse might creep,
in and thus throw 5 shadow over the re
salts of 3 campaign that will form no unimu
portaut chapter in the history of the settle-i
meat of the northwest. Bat following one
aaccou hat and close upon that preceding
it, he threw dismay and consternation into
the ranks of the enemy, and travel where‘
they might, his command was able to coin~i
pete With them at their every stand point.‘
The troops have thus bravely and UUC':
ceesfully accomplished and completed thei
special work they have been sent out to?
perform. They have overtaken and pnn-‘
ishod the men who so wantnnly and ruth-‘
lessly attacked a command of Uniifi-d Staten
troops, without cause or pro ion,
brought them to terms, and imposed upon
them such conditions as the circumltancel‘
of the case seemed to warrant ‘
