Our San Fmncuco papers are to the lt instant. Col. H. P. WatUins, a commander of the "new Republic" ol Sonora had been arrested hy the United States Marthnl. for "having instituted and set on loot, or procured the mean for a military expedition to be carried on from San FniH-ico atiinel the territory or dominions of the Republic of Mexico, with which Republic the United St.ites then was j and now ii at peace." Col. Welkins was required to furni.li sureties in the sum ot $10 000 for his appearance before the U. S. Commissioner. Messrs. A. Sclover end B. F. Washington sijned his b uid. and he was released from custody. Subsequently. Cap tain George R. Davidson, ag.nst whom a warrant founded upon a similar r.hnrge had been issued, voluntarily delivered himself up to the Mrhal. and gave bail in the same amount ($10,000) for his appearance for ex animation on Monday. Msrs. C. J. Bren ham and D. F. Douglas joined Capt. David son as sureties for his appearance. The complaint opon which Cot. Walkins and Capt. Davidson were arrested was made by Dr. Hoge. the surgeon of Walker's expedi tion, some of tlw ck and wounded men who retained in the Southerner feeling very much exasperated at the manner in which they were deserted by Walker anil his tronp. An examination took place on the 23ih l February in the case of Col. Wutiii r.nd Cant. Davidson. Mr. Cooke was the princi- kiI witness, and testified to the material liicu reirardiiu? the denarture of the Anita, the landing and orgniiizalion of the forces under Col. Walker, at Ensenuda, for the conquest of Lower California, and the occitpaticjii ol Sonora. Kx-Lrovemor foote appeareu as counsel fo the defendants. He. reiicd main ly upon the want ofevijence to prove thai the organization was made within the terri torial iirmis or the United atates, winch i required to bring the case within the provi sions of the act of Congress. The in vesi ca lion reulied in the accused being committed to watt the action ol the grand jury, which was to awmble on the 2Sih of February. The po'iucal news is not of much iterest. Ths excitement still continued relative to the rlectii n of United Slates Senator, bu there had been no action thus far. Sacramento lias been designated as the Slate Capito!; and the Legislature was to meet there on the 1st instant. This action gave such offence to the authorities at Benicia that they refus ed to let the steamboat, ordered to convey the Slate records, lie at the wharf until a charge of five hundred dollars was paid. The Alia California, of the Ut instant, fur nishes the following summary of mining io telligvnce: 'The weather has not, it any ti ne since the discovery of gold, been so favorable for mininir as during the last month, and there probably vac never comparatively so large an amount of gold dug. The mines continue to be plentifully supplied with water. The Cherokee Flag Diggings hure proved to be qrtite as rich, and is even said to be the rich est ever found in the State. Three thousand dollars were taken out. in a few hours, but the shaft, when about 28 feet deep, filled with waer 9 rapidly that the company can ftttl work without a steam pump to carry off the water.

The play was a boisterous comedy - of - ihe old scqooI, and required considerable spirit and 'iriyacity on the part'of, ihe 'octors to sustain it properly: but in this "ttnxn ibfre was none, he walked and talked fike ti persoo. in a dream ; his best points he pas sed over without appearing to -perceire them; and ahogrether appeared quite unfit, for the pnrt. -His srnile was ghasriy and his laugh hollow and unrmtilraj; add fre quently he would (Slop suddenly in his -speech, and let hiriyes wander vacantly over the nudienceNEven when- ir his character of a silly husband, be had? to al low himself to be kicked around the stage -by the young rake of the omedyt and ef terwards to behold that careles individual making love to his wifej and eating his supper while he was shut up in t closet from which he could not emerge, his con tortions of ludicrous wrath, which had nev er beforp. failed to call down plenty of "ap plause were now such dismal attempts to portray the passion, that hisses were audi ble in various pans of the house. The au dience were fairly out of temper, and seve ral inquisitive individuals wero particular in their inquiries as to the extent of ihe potations he had indulged in that evening. A storm of sibilation and abuse now. fell around the ears of the devoted actor,: and not content- with verbal insult, orange peel and apple flew upon tbe stage. He slop ped and turned round to the shouting crowd. I never saw such misery in human countenance. Ilia face was worn : and haggard, and large tears rolled down his painted cheeks. I saw his lips quiver with inward agony I saw his bosom heave with convulsions and suppressed e motiot., and his whole mien betokened such depth of anguish and distress lhat the most ruthless heart must have throbbed with pity. I he audience Was moved, and by degrees the clamor of -invective subsided into solemn silence, while fie ,slooa near the foot lights, a picture of dejection; When all was calm, he spojee, n-nd in a voice broken with sobs that seemed fo rend his bosom, proceeded to oiler this little ex planation.

He placed his band upon his heart, and sobbed, and a burst of tears relieved' his momentary paroxysm and grief. The au dience were thoroughly afffectcif, arid an honest burst of sympathy made the wall tremble.
