Judd, Minister to his Highness the King of the'Sandwich Islands, ac companied by Alexander Lihihmo, heir-apparent to the Hawain throne, and his ' brother, Iit Kame hamlieha The object of Mr. JudJs visit to tlie United States and Europe at this pe iod has refer ence to Ihe late outrages of the French at the .Sandwich Islands, the particulars of which appear ed In this paper some time ago. Mr: Dillon, Ihe French Consul.came on to this b hmd since the dispute alluded lo, and took his passage to America to go on to France. to lay the whole atTair before his Government. A naval execution took place on board the Uni ted Slates frigate Savannah, on Iht 23d of Octo- . .-umigru wim .mnuny ai- iem(iea to murder one o! tiie officers ot that vessel. The names of the mutineers were John and Win. Black, both Englishmen, shipped some time since at Valparaiso, in the United States schooner Ew ing, , There were five persons implicated J but the above named men, having confused the crime, and acknowledged their guilt, ihe other three w ere sen tenced to hard labor for ihe remainder of their term of service viz. three years. . The constitution for the State of California has been agreed ujion. The reports from Culiforuia are still encourag ing, the gold was still plentiful sm! those who were able lo stand the fatigues of digging it, got fairly rewarded for their great e.etti"ti. The health of the people ut the mines of Califor nia was generally goo,U but slight attacks of dy sentry prevented maj jSn digging. The average amount of gold Jo ut by the miner, is computed to be alauil ten dollars per day. ' The number of arrivals from Europe and tlicU nited Slates, was progressing -villi much spiiit. Then? were at least ne.hnuihed R.i'ish vessels in the harlair o( San Francisco on the 1st N'ovemlier. J The town of San Fn neisc, numbered its popn- I lation at least 30,000, and the number of person ! at the mines is coiifulcntly set down at 80,000 per sons, 'i ''::':-'.'- . ' : . , The ConatituSpn of California formed at Mon terey, appears to have given univerMl satisfaction, and h will probably bo unanimously ratified by the reople. 'l '' : ' Tlie people are beginning to divide oft into the various parlies to which they used to belong when, at home. The democrats appear to be the most numerous, and have had several meetings. ' .; , Col. Fremont, , as Senator, will, of course, lie sent to Washington. Mr'. King, will get thenomi-' nation on the whig ticket with Mr. Fremonl. ,Pr. Gwinn, Mr. Halleck, Gen. Green, and a host of others are aspirants from the opposite party. For tht office of Governor, we ha ve the names of Peter H. Burnett, WV M. Stewart, AV". S. Sherwood; for, Lieut. Governor, J. McDoiigal, F. J. Lippill ; for Representatives toCongresis, Edward Gilbert; Rod ney M. Price G. W. VVright L,' Dent, W. Shan non, and others. The whigs have not publicly made their choice fur I In- above officers. ; The want of regularity in conveying mails Id to and from California, gives great dissatisfaction. Meetings hare been held on the subject slid votes of censure passed on those employed in the mail business. The pacific Mail line of steamers is now so or ganised that regular semimonthly trips will be msde. ' . -; Tt is questioned at S-in Francisco, Whether th steamer Unicorn, a BritUh nean er, lormcr'y be longing to Cunard, has any right to- carry the A merican flag and engage in the coaling trade. A vast amount of rade is' carried on between San Francisco and Sacramento, above 100 vessels are employed in it. The arriva! of ships from the United States has been limited, hut ivchave large numbers fnan Asia, the coast, and other countries. The number of Chinese arriving is enormous ; they are brought in. cargoes by English vessels anj told as servant to the highest bidder, on the Coulcv svstem, a shade diggings mostly ilynenlery whicli, if neglected, terminates fatally.

Tliis c.vri ;:iny prop-wed also- lo purchase all the' provisions; and mater ials they might need from. the farmers along the line of said road, and when Ihe same was complex led, to take 10 per cent of llie whole amount In slock. This, if we had no other data! is sufficient of itself to convince the most incredulous individu al among us that it must be a profitable business, tnthnsA who have surplus hands on their farms to engage in this work. These men arc old contrac tors, and have nn j'itle experience in such mutters, and surely if they can d fiord to give these prices when they have to hire nil their hands, and reside from 500 to 1'lflO mites distant, onr eitiften could not lose by embarking -in this business. For my part I am sure they could make three times as much money n they can upon their farms. Hut for fearsome miy yet doubt, I will state in ndJi lion to what I have here said, that I heard a gen tleman who attended the Convention as a delegate from one of llie western counties of Ihe .Slate, re mark that the hands employed on the South Car olina Roads, cleared their own.' on an average, al least throe hundred dollars per year. I heard anolher one say, who has a contract on the Ch:ir lutle Road, that his hands were now making him more by working on that road than they could by raising cotlon, even could he sell it 'at the 'enor mous price of 20 cts. per. lb. ' Now if the atate meiiis be any (hing like true, wc uld it not be wise in all of onr fanners lo clnb togei her a ml subscribe for a fe.wfthares of 10,000 each, and work it out? The shares, though nominally 10,000 would in fact not be more than 7.000, being reduced to this amount by the present subscriptions, which are daily being increased. I would advise no man or fl of men to embark in this enterprise, if I thought it st all hazardous ; but 1 do ii"l. On the other hand, 1 think it a far safer and belter business than raising corn at $1.75 and $2.00 a barrel, and the few who have or are about to try it in tliis country, will find it so, or I am 'greatly deceived. i Many of the .large planters in Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia, I am lulj, ii.ivc found thai wrrl: of this kind pays so well that they have in many instances actually abandoned their farms altogether, for employment of this kind. Let the weak, timid and fearful aland aloof and prophecy "vil if they like; but lei all of Guilford's sons who have the ability to work or have it done, lay to, and in my humble judgment the day is not fardis tout when ibey will see that they have acted a wise and prudent urn."
