Interne Kxcltement—Tke Mavemcnr at Troop*. SAN FRANCISCO. March 8.—The Call pub Hshes the result of inquiries regarding re cent military movements, from which it appears that all the arms of the Second regiment- of National Guards have been removed from the various company armories and deposited in the old City If all. or central police station, where a guard of Lieutenant and ten men is kept over them. Companies Band of the First regimen! are concentrated at the armory ol the latter company, and the arms of Company of the Second regiment have Wen placed in their charge. An officer's guard is now mounted nightly at the armory of the Third regiment under arms. ''The armory of the First regiment is closely

uardod, and no one allowed to enter. arms of the three cavalry companies have been removed from their armory, to what IoeaHty is unknown, but probably to the old City Hall. Camp regulations a¥«' established, and the "grand rounds" visit the various posts Rightly. The,arms of the Second regiment have been removed from the armories, ahd guards are detailed every night to watch over the other com pany.property. Tho Third regiment has been concentrated at the Olympic Clul» building, and those companies of the First not nccotrimodated at the armory 6f Com paiiy Care at regimental quarters, corner of Howard and New Montgomery street#. Tho Second regiment is disposed., to view the removal of their arms with in dignation, and many members assert that it is an insult to the regiment, whose loyalty to the State and to the cause of law and order is unquestionable. The reason assigned by the Officers for the act is that the arms of the regiment, being Scattered around at a number of company armories, are liable to seizure in- t,lie event of the expected movement by the disorderly classes, and their removal to the old city hall is merely precautionary. ThewOrkingmen are considerably excited over the movements, and many assert that the .authorities nr! trying to foree a quarrel. Others snv tiie movement is due to the unfounded fears of the authorities.

Gen McDowell, .commanding the Division of the Pacific, was telegraphed yesterday from Washington to bring the available troops in his division to San Francisco, and companies amounting in all to 501) are already earoutc, with more to follow, probably 4,500 altogether. It is impossi ble to discover by'whose orders these movements are'made, as the officers refuse to give any information^ but it is con jectured that the movements are under the direction of Gen McDowell, and du.e tH representations made fro the Washington authorities by Col Bee, vice Consul to China*-regarding the supposed danger in which thuChinese stand. It is understood that present precautions will be maintained until a set'flembnt of the existing agitation is hiid, at least titif.il the question of the constitutionality of the law forliiddiug corporations to employ Chinese has been decided by the United.
