" . FEOII CALIFORNIA. A gentleman of this place- has kindly per mitted us to make the following extract from a letter received from a friend in California: Alamo, P. 0., Cah, July 1st, '53,, General good health prevails throughout the country and crops are good, except in a few places, money tolerably plenty, horses, cattle and all other stock not so high as formerly; land from five to fifteen dollars per acre ; the mountains are delivering up a goodly supply of the one thing needful and consequently all kinds of business i3 prosecuted : with that energy and speed, peculiar to California." Much excitement exists in California, bo tween those in, and those out of Gee; those in office are called "Law and Order (other wise Law and Murder party,) and thoso out of office, who are engaged in trying to put down the Law and order, or murder, : party, are called Vigilance Committee party. The vigilence party 'have hung two, and shipped twenty -five no table characters ; a part are ship ped to China, apart to the Sandwich Islands; and another part to the Atlantic States; those who were hung, had been guilty of murder in the streets of San Francisco, and those who were shipped, were guilty of frauds in election or corruption in office. The Vigilant Com mittee have on hand a dozen more of the same kind of birds; one of which as known by the name of Dave Terry one of the Judges of the Supreme Court Terry will cither bo hung or shipped. It will be recollected that the present incumbents,- Gov. Johnson, Judge Terry and most of the State and county officers, were elected last September, by the Know Nothing party. . . Gov. Johnson has issued various proclama tions, declaring that a state of insurrection ex isted in San Francisco, and ordering out the Militia of the State; his Generals have" been flying over the State, with their epaulettes and cocked hats, hallowing, parade, parade, but nobody came, except about four hundred,' and they consisted chiefly of gamblers, ballot box staffers, shoulder stripped felons, and loafers Said Committee occupy naif of an entire block in . San Francisco, (one block from the water,) the space they occupy is covered with strong brick buildings, and enclosed by a strong breast . work of bass of sand. They have recently taken from the Governor's party two hundred rifles and muskets, and the last of their recruits, (about 150 in number,) The Committee have fifteen pieces canon, a large number of small arms over and above those taken from the opposite party, and some 5000 members, (chiefly, citizens of said city.) Almost every case of punishment inflicted, is done by and on inhabitants of said city ; the citizens of the balance of the State agree and sympathise with the Committee, but take no further part that is, a very large majority, say two-thirds or more, so sympathise. It is to be hoped that the Vigilance will punish all who "deserve it, but no others; disband soon and not make their organization and excite ment apolitical luMy. Tours, &c, . J. B.

"We were all gliding down tho Missouri very quietly, with nothing' to disturb the placid stream of life, until we neared Nebraska City Landing. The steamer Admiral was just shoving off, and as we approached for the purposa of landing three passengers, a procession of about fifty or seven ty-five men and boys marched in two rank fonjlation up the hill, and when they reached tho top, they set up such a hooting and tooting that I really thought they would split their throats or luns.. Goodness me: thought L what a small moiety of brains small men have, to cut up such antics a3 that; to hoot a Steam Boat , do wp. because her owners saw nt to christen her the Omaha, after a rival city, or tribe of Indians, no matter which. - ' But in all good faith; whatever part the citizens of Nebraska city take in such demon stration, as hooting a steam boat, they should mako amends, by putting a Etop to such conduct at once ; for it will not, nor cannot come to any good. Let them' consider the many strangers that are constantly traveling up and down the river, and then think what weight.it will have with the public opinion; whether it will bo . favorable or' prejudicial to tho true interest of Nebraska City. And least of alL do as you did then, cheer T. B. Cu'mming, and groan at Omaha. ' Now take my advice, if you want to show your indignation at tho boat When you see her coming, go quietly away. But if you wan to show it at anybody else, wait until you can get Cumming, Lowe, Mitchell, and others, who made tho Capitol at Omaha, together and theaunbottle your just or unjust wrath which ever it is. Mr. Editor, I was agreeably surprised see tho rapid growth of your city. Wby it ia only a year and a half ago, I cams tip the Missouri, having on board a passenger for Brownville the Captain did not know where 1 . t . sucn jaiownwas, ana unaea tno passenger and trunk some five or ten miles below; and when we got opposite the place, we discovered tho commencement of a Steam Saw Mill just behind the spot.where you stood to throw the papers on board of this boat, as we passed down last trip.
