 CALIFoRNIA.-The territory of California is to be of great interest. IL has most decious cll- mate and fertile soil. You are aware lhai passed some time among the Rancheros last year, and they are the most interesting branches of the Spanish American races. and would go far to show the decid ed influence of climate upon character. The Cahfor- nians are handsome Tn figure and feature, with sprigbtly, intelligent countenances, cheerful, happy and amable dispositions, always ready for froic; their tempers puck and energetic. They are. however, under the influence of double jealousy i; the first and greater, that of the Mexcans, whom, as you have seen they have, as Governors, expelled the country. Indeed. from the remote situation of the territory, in relation to the government of Mex

 co, it has but nominal attachment. The next jea- lousy is of settlers and Is chiefly based upon idea of the great ferocity of this peope, and IS mo- difed by admiration for our country. They make distinction between those settlers who come over the mountain ins and those who come round ihe HorH- dreading the former, liking the latter. In the mean time, our people, like sure heavy and sulen tide, overfowing the county. Among them, can almost imagine myself in Indiana Most of ihe peo- pie who first enter Oregon eventually fall down into California. As an evidence of the imperceptible man ner n winch they came in, an immigrant couple were married short time since at our Consur's in Monterey, and the house was filled with tall gaunt back-woodsuen. The nexi day, the Governor sem, to inquire where many foreigners had come from

 in the meantime they had all dispersed, and the Con- sul himself could not tell whence they had come, nor whilher they had gone.

 Ton must not suppose that l, more than yourself, advocate the principle of territorial aggression.- Yet, believing io, that the contests of he world are hereafter to he, not much belween individual interests as between great principles influencing the wel-being of m,n a, large: and that the great con test going on, is between the democratic tnot in party sense) and mpnrchica principles, the latter having nearly fulfilled their purposes in the educa- tion of mank ind, think that can foresee in the n- evabe destiny of this territory, of the most ef fcent foriresses from which new and liberal io combat old and despoiic institutions. C,rcumstan- ces known me here. assure me that Grent Britain, the watch dog of despolism, sees the same thing, and is ready to every energy 10 impede such a result II the view present is correct, it would indicate policy Tn case ol begerent relations.
