Mr. John Mellon, late of the lumber
manufacturing firm of J. & n. Mellon, Car
roll townnhip, has bought himself a farm in
Prince William county, Va., and leaves
this morning for the purjoH of taking pos
session of his new purchase. We wish him
all the success he deserves down in "Old
Virgin ny," and we know that will be
enough to make him happy and rich both.
A meeting of the creditors of Owen
Cunningham, of this place, who has been
declared a bankrupt, was held in the Court
House on Wednesday, by John Brotherline,
Esq., Register in Bankruptcy for this dis
trict. The hearing of the case was post
poned until this morning, and as our paper
went to press last evening, we cannot an
nounce the name of the assignee, who will,
perliaps, be chosea to-day. There loeiiia to
be a bitter contest about this matter.
Our attentive and fully eorapeteut cor
respondent, "B. S. K. ," sent ua several
Hems of interest relative to South Fork and
its surroundings, but by on of those mys
terious dispensations which are past finding
out, his favor disappeared from mortal vis
ion, so far a w are concerned, after being
put on "case" for the ntn of the compositor,
and all efforts to discover its whereabouts
have thus far proved unavailing. Hope
"B. E. R." will do it to us again, however.
Mr. Ballzer Helfrich, who for many
years past has been engaged ir the hotel
business at St. Boniface. Chest townshiD.
removed with bi family on day this week:
to Nanticoke, Luzerne county, where he
purposes embarking in the lumber business.
Mr. H.'s old stand at St. Bonifac has been
taken by Mr. Anthony Anna, one of our
county commissioners, who has all the ele
ments of au a;comodating, popular and suc
cessful landlord. We wish both gentlemen
abundant prosperity in their new ventures.
In the ejectmeut case from this county,
which lb vol red the title to a large body of
land in Richland, Croyl and Summerhill
townships, in which John . King and oth
ers, citizens of New Jersey, were the plain
tiffs, and the Cambria Iron and Coal Com
pany the defendants, and which was refer
red to in our last week's issue as being on
trial before tie Circuit Court of the United
Btatos at Pittsburgh, the jury, under the
barge of Judge McKennan, rendered a
vrdictin favor of the defendants.
The young man, John Cochran, whom
we noticed last week as having had both of
his legs terribly crushed near Portage sta
tion, this county, while in pursuit of his
duties as freight brakeman, and subsequent
ly submitted to the amputation of those
members, died from the effects of his inju
ries on Saturday last, and his remains wr
interred in the Catholic cemetery at Sam
mitvtlle on Monday morning following.
Young Cochran was an orphan boy, having
been taken from the Catholic Orphan Asy
lum, Pittsburgh, by Mrs. Gallagher, of
Munster township, this county, by whom h
wa reared and with whom he lived, we be
lieve, until he found employment on the Pa.
R. R., as stated.
The store and dwelling house of our
friend, Mr. Thomas Bradley, of Tunnel
Hill, Gallitzin township, was, we regret to
say, burned to the ground on Wednesday
night of last wk. The fir was communi
cated from the stable of Mr. John Porter,
which was also totally destroyed. We did
not learn the full extent of the loss or how
the fire originated, but are pleased to see
that Mr. Bnsdley had 52,500 insurance in
the Home Insurance Company, of New
York, which has already been paid over to
him. The old shaft of the Bennington Iron
and Coal Company, not far from the scene of
the above disaster, was likewise destroyed
by (Ire on the same night or early the next
morning. This latter was doubtless the
of work an incendiary, as the shaft had not
been operated for a considerable time.) Loss
very heavy.
Klisha Dixon and David Farner, the
former con vie ted of rape at the late session
of the District Cort, but now, or rather
until yesterday, awaiting a new trial, and
the latter charged with breaking into the
residence of ex-Sheriff Patterson, in Johns
town, with felonious intent, managed to es
cape from the jail in this place yesterday
about 11 o'clock, A. M, It seems that the
escaped prisoners were engaged in carrying
water from the well to the Sheriff's resi
dence, and while so engaged discovered a
section ladder with a long rope attached,
which had been left leaning against the jail
wall by some workmen employed there,
which they were not long in turning to ac
count ny ascending the ladder to the top of
th wall and then Utting themselves down
on the outside by the aid of the rope. Dp
to the present writing their whereabouts
has not been discovered, bat no doubt they
are getting over ground somewhere on a
doable quick. Sheriff Baumer and officer
John T. Harris are in quest of the fugitives.
A leather dealer by occupation and a
widower by dispensation (of Divine Provi
dence), residing in Altoona, George Streit
by name, brought suit against Miss Barbara
Behringer, of Carroll township, this county,
n Thursday of last week, recently at ser
vice in this place, but now employed as a
domestic in th family of H. J. Cornman,
Altoona, for the alleged obtaining of money
under false preteuces and for breach of
promise of marriage, he claiming that he
had advanced Miss B. ninety dollars to pay
for her wedding outfit, and bad also pre
sented her with an engagement ring valued
at ten dollars. The defendant was arrested
and after a hearing was held to bail in the
sum of 8300 to appear and answer the
charge at court. Subsequently the prosecu
tor withdrew the suit, but it appears that he
afterwards bad a capias issued by Judge
Dean, and had Miss Bhringr ouce more
arrested, this time, if we understand the
matter rightly, on the charge of a breach of
promise onlv. In this instance bonds in
the idiii of $5,000 were required, which
were promptly furnished by Messrs. H.J.
Conman and F. W. Olmus. The lady in
question does not deny the soft impeach
ment, but alleges that Streit made improper
advance to her, which so disgusted her
that she made up her mind not to marry him.
A QrEER Vkbdict. A cause was tried
n the Blair County Court at its recent

known to the Court of this county, was
plaiutiff, and G. W. Domr was the uerena-

Brotherline against Domer, about the mer
its of which we know nothing. Domer put
in the plea that he did not owe Brotherline,

sideration. The jury returned this singular
verdict, which simply shows how uncertain
may be the conclusion at which twelve men
will arrive : " We find and certify that there

for the defendant, who asked Brady, after
the Judge had charged the jury and after

UVBAND BLOOD DISEASES.
BY K. V. PIEKCE, M. D.
A healthy liver secretes each day about
two and a half pounds of bile, which con
tains a great amount of waste material
taken from tbe blood. Wheu the liver be
comes torpid or congested, it fails to elimi
nate thia vast amount of noxious subatanoe,
which, therefore, remains to poison the
bloed, and be conveyed to every part of the
system. What must be the condition of the
blood when it is receiving and containing
each day two and a half pounds of poison ?
Nature tries to work off this poison through
other organs and channels the kidneys,
lungs, skin, etc., but these organs become
overtaxed iniperformlng this labor in addi
tion to their natural functions, and cannot
long withstand the pressure, but become va
riously diseased.
The brain, which Is th great electrical
centre of all vitality, is nnduly stimulated
by the unhealthy blood which passes to it
from the heart and it fails to perform its of
fice healthfully. Hence the symytoms of
bile poisoning, which are dullness, head
ache, incapacity to keep th mind on any
subject, impairment of memory, dizzy,
sleepy and nervous feelings, gloomy forebo
dings and irritability of temper. The blood
itself being diseased, as it forms th sweat
upon the surface of tbe skin, it is so so irri
tating and poisonous that it produces dis
colored brown spots, pimples, blotches and
other eruptiens, sores, boils, carbuncles and
scrofalus tumors. The stomach, bowels and
other organs car not escape becoming affect
ed, sooner or later, and we have as the re
sult, costireness, piles, dropsy, dyspepsia,
diarrhoea. Other symptoms ar common,
as bitter or bad taste in mouth, internal heat,
palpitation, teasing coagh, unsteady appe
tite, choking sensation in throat, bloating
of stomach, pain in sides or ahont shoulders
or back, coldness of extremities, etc., etc.
Only a few of the above symptoms ar likely
to be present in any case at one time. The
liver being th great depurating or blood
cleansing organ of the system set this
great " housekeeper of our health " at work
and tbe foul corruptions which gender in the
blood and rot out, as it were, the machinery
of life, are gradually expelled from the sys
tem. For this purpose my Golden Medical
Discovery, with very small doses daily of
jay Pleasant Purgative Pellets, are pre-eminently
tbe articles needed. They cure every
kind of humor from the worst scrofula to
the common pimple, blotch or eruption.
Great eating ulcers kindly hea under their
mighty crrative influence. Virulent blood
poison that lurk in the system are by them
robbed of their terrors, and by their perse
vering and somewhat protracted use the
most tainted system may be completely re
novated and built up anew. Enlarged
glands, tumors and swellings dwindle away
and disappear under th influence of these
great resolvents.
Livkb ComplaIKT. In this disease there
is a peculiar cachectic condition of the blood
which gives rise to a long train of diversi
fied symptoms.
The countenance becomes sallow, the eyes
have a yellowish tinge, the whole skin be
comes changed in color and appearances,
and not unfrequently terminate in a jaun
diced condition of all th excretion, but
specially the urine.
Dyspepsia soon sets in, sometimes cough
similating Consumption. Dropsy, with its
usnal symptoms of swelling of feet and legs
Asthmatic difficulties, Costiveness, Piles,
&c. These many times so far cbauge the
symptoms in every other respect as to make
it difficult for the physician to arrive at the
true nature of the case by the pulse aud
tongue alone.
A mere ocular inspection of the urine in
this disease, however, is nearly always suf
ficient to determine the nature of the case,
and many times to give a very correct opin
ion of the extent of the mischief also.
The melanchoiy which Is so apt to take
plac in Liver Complaint, has oiien led to
erroneous treatment, aud the worst of con
sequences have thus befallen the patient.
We have cured many cases of melancholy
amounting even to "derangement of the
mind," when the cause was plainly attribut
able to Liver Complaint aloue.
Iu thia disease, as in many others, the
urine is so well marked as to denote the
character of the disorder long before it is
mauifested by any other symptom or out
ward sign.
We have had the examinatioa and treat
ment of so mauy cases of this disease and its
complications that we have learned the kiud
of medicines to be used in each particular
case not only but feel satisfied that they
can be treated more successfully without
than with any mercurial preparation what
ever. In fact, onr snccess in this affection num
bers thousands of cases, and reliable cures
have been made in hundreds of instances,
after nearly the last vestige of hope had
been exhausted.
For tbe;beneflt ef those living at a distance
laboring under Chronio Affections, and un
able to attend in person, we would say: By
sending a vial of tirini for examination, th
necessary medicine can be sent them by ex
press. L. Oldshuk, M. D.

The "Victor." It is a well established
fact, which experience more fully demon
strates, that paten's are susceptible of im
provements and defects remedied. In no
case do we see this fact more fully exempli
fied than in the Sewing Machines of the
present day, many of them lieing almost
worthless for lack of tbe more recent im
provements simplifying and adapting them
to more general service. In this particular
we notice in our market the "Victok," in
troduced by Mr. M. L. Bbow.h, agent for
Cambria county. Mr. B. has had several
years experience selling the "Singer," and
well knows that th 'Victor," in its more
modern construction, far excels any other
Sewiug Machine offering in our town or vi
cinity. Its superiority consists principai'.y
in its improved shuttle, its interchangeable
drop feed, its tension, it.s straight self-adjusting
needle, running more easily, rapidly and
quietly, and in all luotions being positire.
The agent for the "Victor" courts investi
gation and a thorough examination on the
pait of the public, well knowing that when
any person purchases a machine it pays to
look around. To be seen at his residence in
the west end of Ebensburg.
Death or Abkam Kopelin, Esq. We
regret to announce the death of the above
named gentleman, who died at his residence
in Johnstown on last Tuesday night. II
was 49 years of age, and was admitted to
practice'law in the Courts of this county in
October, 1849, having been a student of
Hon. James Potts, now the President Judge
of the District Court of this county. In
1853. Mr. Kopelin was one of the two Re
publican candidates for Assembly in what
then formed this legislative district Cam
bria, Bedford and Fulton counties. The
district being Democratic, Mr. Kopelin was
not elected. In 1861 he was again the Re
publican candide for Assembly against Cy
rus L. Pershing, and was defeated. Mr.
Kopelin was a geutlemau in the fullest ac
ceptation of that term. His ability as a
lawyer was admitted by all who knew him,
and acknowleded and fully appreciated by
the people of this county. In the death of
Mr. Kopelin Johnstown has lost one of her
promineut and respected citizens and the le
gal profession of Cambria county will mourn
the premature death of one of its brightest
ornaments.

geous. On Saturday we boarded tbe steamship
"Acapulco," which deserves a notice.
-.Thl u Dew "hip a screw steamer length
840 feet, width 40 feet, depth 30 feet, and draws
U vT,1-0 wter- She bad on board 190 cabin
and 110 ateerage passengers, a crew of 80, including-officers
and men, s.uuo tons carg-o.elgbt
boats, two rafts aud a number or cork life pre
servers. Her capacity Is 6,U0 tons. Thi ship
was commanded by Cnpt. J. J. Carer Iy ; Chae.
C. Li mar, first mate; Geo. U. Crapo. second
mate ; 11. Prindle. third mate ; J. E. Desmond,
steward W. M. Connery, purser, and Dr. Wil
liamson, surgeon. Making due allowance for
rrt tap, the officers were kind and clever, the
captain particularly, who resides io San Fran
cisco. The cooks and waiters are all "Ameri
can citizens of African 'scent." A. splendid pi
ano was on board, said to have coat 41,500. Tbe
engines on tbe ship, two in number, are each
1,600 borse-power, and they were aided Ibj
twelve sail. The table was supplied with ev
ery thing the market could afford. At dinner
there were nine changes of dishes.
THITOTIOI.
On Saturday, April 11th, at t p. at., as I have
already informed you, we left tbe pier at New
York ana were piloted out beyond Sandy Hook,
after which tbe ship steered due south. Tbe
sea was rough, with a north wind, and ss tbe
vessel rolled very much at any rate, about two
hundred and fifty people became sea-pick in
three hours. That nigbt was such a night the
ship should have been called Aca-puJce-o. For
six days the sea remained rough and the peo
ple remained sick. I escaped with one little
onpltaanntnts tbe first nip-ht. More than one
hundred kept their beds till we reached Aapio
wall. It is not easy to describe tbe sea, especi
ally in its boisterous moods. It is composed of
bills, mountains, valleys, y.wning chasms,
with an ever-varying surface ef white caps,
and jets of spray, which often tiy clear over
deck. Tbe sea is a liquid landscape, where
deep ravines turn to high bills in a moment of
time. Tbe ship sinks down Into a deep abyss,
and before you can realize It you will flud it
rolling on tbe top of a great wave. The At
lantic is a rough sea, at any rate, compared
with the Pacine. Tbe first night there was
snow, frost and sleet, but from then until this
time of writing tbe weather has been warmer
hot.
the isi.ab-ds.
The flrtt island we saw was Went ling or Wat
ling island, tbe one discovered by Columbus.
These islands do not risebiirh above the water.
We passed the east end of Cuba at night, but I
could see that it loomed up about 5,000 feet in
some places. But the most magnificent island is
Jamaica, whose mountains peer u p 9,000 feet,
with clouds resting on their sides half way up.
Kingston, the capital of Jamaica, is a wretched
town with 1.600 souls as miserable aa tbe town,
but the harbor is magnificent and the shrub
bery transcendent!? glorious. Tbe inhabitants
are negroes and tbe language English. The
United States have no consul here; he either
died or ran away. A Orui of Jews called Nunes
Brothers act as such and draw the salary,
12.600. I notice large quantities of ' shook "
and immense piles of logwood. A monnment
arraens the plaza erected to the memory nf Ba
ron Metcalf. a former governor. The father of
our first officer on the Acapulco was also gov
ernor of that island in 1S47. His name was
Charles Lianer. We left Kingston on Saturday
at 9 o'clock a. ai., seven days after we bad
steamed out of New York harbor, and ar
rived at Aspin wall on Tuesday following at 2
o'clock, p. m. Here we found a different con
dition of tilings. The negroes her are the
gentlemen, anil thirty ooolies. brought hereby
the I'aclOc Steamship Company, perform ail
the labor at tbe wbarf. Aspinwall has about
1.000 population. a deserted church that cost
80,000, and a monument erected to the mem
ory of Hi ry Chauncy, Win. F. Aspinwall and
John S. Stephens ; aUo a bronze statue of Co
lumbus with a young Indian kneeling by bis
side. The steamship's warehouse is four hun
dred feet long and forty wide. The 1. R. It.
Co. (which means the Panama H. K. Co.) have
a warehouse about the same size, b'lllt of
stone. There were twelve steamers in the har
bor, representing as many different nations.
A Philadelphia barque was unloading coal
here. Tbe garden of the Steamship Company
is a magnificent spot, with ail kinds of luxuri
ous liowers in full bloom.
CHOKSINQ TIIC ISTHMUS.
We 1 ft the Isthmus, or Aspin wall, which is
conspicuous for nothing but anl' lugltvayt, at
12:30 p. at.. Wednesday, in t train or seve n cars,
and arrived at Panama at 4:30 p.m., passing
over a distance of 47 miies. covered Mith the
moat exuberant foliage imaginable, and but
little fruit. Tbere seemed to be a strange waste
of growth bore. Milton's description of Para
dise, though grand, would fitil to show up this
umbrageous foliage of leaf and vine, ohrub
and plant, tree and root, which abounds here.
The mind could not form a conception of tbe
shape of a leaf that cannot be found here. I
can only describe it by saying that it is an eter
nal growth, an eternal change and an eternal
decay. Bananas and oranges grow in great
quantities, but, except tbe palm-date, tbere is
no fruit growth commensurate with tbe luxu-
rlenceor shrubbery, nen the people l,n.
tbe people most miserable natives, living iu
huts made rt! bamboo wood, thatched with
plantain leaves, elevated on posts half-naked
people talking Spanish. Where are your mis
sionary societies that spend millions of dollars
to convert the heathen teu thousand miles
away, with worse heathen only ono thousand
miles from us? This people subsist on the na
tive fruits, and sell them ttn.l parrots and mon
keys to travelers in (ru)istfu. Cocoa, bananas,
oranges and such like fruits can be bought for
a trifle. A pair of young parrots, or paro
quets, cost fifty cents aud a monkey will bring
a dollar. We followed the Clmgres river twen
ty miles up and tbe Kio Grande seventeen
miles down, and my impression is that a ship
canal eould be easily made hereby bringing
coolies to do the work. The grade could be
overcome by about three locks on either side.
The railroad is good, but there is only one
track, a few turnouts and about a dozen sta
tion houses. All tbe dwellings here, except na
tive huts, are covered with iron, painted red.
Taking the Isthmus all io alt it is a dreary place,
I could not locate the mountain that Bai.boa
and bis men stood upon when they raised tbe
cross and saw tbe Pacific ocean, but I am sure
It is here. My wonder is how they ever gut
through tbe net-work of woven branch and
vino that covers the Isthmus. Panama on the
Pacific sloe was burned down some time ago,
but still enough of it stands to show that it
was a place of considerable weaUh and trade.
Kingstou has an English paper, tbe Gleaner,
while Panama has a Spanish paner. both dai
lies. The Bay of Panama Is not much of a buy
but rather a peaceful shore. Tbe ships anchor
about six miles out and a boat took us out
just after we landed. A file of negro soldiers,
splendidly uniformed, guarded tbe cars ou
both sides.
tre paciric SIPS.
All glorious and sublime is tba Pacificoean
all calm and peaceful are its waves, all pictur
esque its mountain scenery, aud tiausccndent
ly magnificent its whales and waterspouts, its
islands and shores. Its stars and sunsets. " itoll
on, thou dark and deep blue ouean, roll." is
whnt Bvron said of an ocean, and all that I sao
say of this is, tbHt it is too grand for descrip
tion. With a ship canal across the Inlimus,
what a vast trade would be carried on across
its blue waters 1 Even as it is, look at tbe trade
with China and Japan via Sun Fra ucisco.
M ARK IN) BAGQAGK.
A bint to travelers in regard to baggage
might be aprnp here. Take at little lugirage
as possible and divide that little into what you
absolutely need and what you do uot need. Do
Tiotputany marksjon your baggage. Leavethat
to the officers. Use tbe strongest kinds of
trunks and lash them well with strong ropes,
or, if possible, cushion them, for they are
roughly used in loading aud uuloading. I
have seen two stout men stand on one trunk
and lift another heavy trunk up. I have seen
them Jump down ten feet on a trunk. I have
seen six trunks lasned together and dropped
twenty feet till the splinters would fly all
round, and I saw one tumbled into the briny
deep from the platform and then hooked up
again. I have seen a dozen bauied out of the
ship with a cable drawn by a donkey steam en
gineand tumbled out on a platf.irru where
they would turn over and over again. So, I
say, look out for your burgage when you
travel. I ban a violin smashed into smither
eens, though it was well packed. Our bag
gage has been changed seven times already
and may be changed three or four times more
before we reach our destination.
THE SHIP NEVADA.
On the Pacific side a large steamer took us
out six miles to the steamer Nevada. This is
a side-wheel, wooden steamer, smaller tbau the
eapulco. but a much smoother runner. We
are crowded on this vessel, but have good eat
ing. Chinese cooks, waiters and sailors-all
heathen Chinee. Still they cook well, are do
cile, industrious and patient. They are not as
impudent as tbe negroes. The officers are ge
nial, good fellows. The Captain, J. D. Howell,
is a nephew or Jeff. Davis, and is Southern in
every lineament and feature, high-toned, but
clever. The first mate is Wm. D. Davis i ; sec-
,4....o t H Hiirr.nr third mate. P. L. Hurd;
chief engineer, L. F. Jenkins ; purser, L. Mc
Clean; steward, J. T. Martin; second steward.
Thomas Kider; surgeon. Dr. Lovard. The ship
makes ten miles an hour, the same rate or
sotted made by the Acapulco. It has masts and
sails, but they did not appear necessary, as tbe
wind was not usea. " e uu .-r.
kevs and parrots on board the vessel, which is
supplied with a butcber shop, a bar-room, and
a barber shop. Only twenty-five cent a shave
and thirty cents a drink a oo 1 way to make

TASREE8 SEEDED.
Up the coast towards California tbe climate
fs as hot as .Hades. We were as far south ae six
degrees north of the equator, and tbe sun on
deck would have cooked grass-hoppers. Yet,
notwithstanding this, we have not been trou
bled at all with Insects or anv kind not even
a house-fly to disturb the cquauimity of our
tempers. I have neither seen or felt an insect
since leaving home, except a poor wandering
honey-bee and a butterfly that boarded the
.... - ueu near Jamaica. We have seven Jap
anese on board, who think the absence or thee
Insects very remai kable. as they are erxeed-
sect except the nnts at Aspinwall. The only
trinowl animal I saw on the Isthmus wa a
nn X 7' '''""T-black-bird and aoiiie parrots.
On the Pacific side, about sunset, we saw long
lines of herons leaving the ocean for tbe for-
lhe second night we sighted a large whale, the
presence of both indicating a deep ocean and
a warm climate ; id rat. the waterspou t aug
ured a warm cl, mate and the whale deep water
VAKnaaa mebobd.
All these Central American islands and gov
erument Indicate a want of energy in the peo
ple and an imperious need or live Yankees to
develop tbe country. Nine-tenths or tbe ter
ritory is now a blank, non-producing waste
the people are ruled by distracted govern
ments and are otherwise demoralized. Tbe
first thing wanted la a republican form of gov
ernment; the second, some system of educa
tion ; and tbe third, an enterprising race of
peop to settle in their midst aud aid them in

as for Mexico, its sea-coast towns are miser
able apologies for towns. The people bare
.fTA" '"r hrrd by Internal dissensions
that they have become lukewarm to their own
interests. They have no patriotism, but little
religion and still left pride. Tbe towns are not
the trading potts they ought to be on such a
glorious coast as the Pacific, and they never
wi.l be till th government Is ruled by wiser
councils.
California.
A we reach our own people yon can see en
terprise on every side, a throng of live men
improving the country, building cities, devel
oping tbe mineral resources of the State, open
ing up trade with distant ports, inventing
novel machinery, and doing everything that
indicates progress. The bay of San Francisco
is a little world within itself. More business
is transacted here In one day than Is done in
Mexico and Central America in a month. And
this is only the beginning of the eud.
riNAI.LT.
I must close this Irtter. I will follow with a
letter descriptive of the interior of California.
I have many more ih ngs to say about the trip,
but I am not cei turn what I did write, and
what I miss here I will put in a letter to tbe

an average. The "Acapulco." with sail and
steam both, made nearSUOsome das. Tbe side

ference and make 10ii revolutions per minute,
equaling 7cS feet er minute, or 44,100 feet in

day. Divide this by 5,?B0 feet in a mile, and
yeu have a little over 00 miles per day. If the

CRRsaiT Station, Merced Co., Cal., I
May 11, 1874. f
Diah Fkeemax I dropped you a letter when
we left the ship, and new I write to inform
you that we have reached our destination and
found three Freemans and six I'niuiifi awar
ing our arrival, for which we are extremely
thankful. I forgot what 1 said about
SAM FHANCIMJO.
but I say sgain that it is a city of 200,000 Inhabi
tants. Some streets are eight miles long, but
tno'st or them ouly three or four. One-third of
the city is built on hills as steep as the rise
from tbe station to the Court House in your
place, and some street cars are drawn up by
Utcul engines, similar to the old Portage rail
road arrangement. One-third of the city
around the wharf is built on made-up
ground, and the other third is built on a plum
between that and the bills. Theso hills stand
between the bay and the ocean. The "Golden
Gate" is a narrow entrance from ocean to bay.
The bay is tifty miies long by eight miles wido.
Tbe largest ships can enter in safety. The en
t ranee is guarded by two forts aud tbe govern
meui'ttMri ac-ks. One fort is on an island front
ing the "Gate." and the fortifications are such
as to protect the city perfectly. There is much
wealth here and goods are cheaper by one
third than at Juhustowu. All kinds of fruits
are plentiful.
OAKLAMD-
Oakland Is across the bay eastward, and Is
the Brooklyn of "Fnsoo," although there is
anottier Brooklyn up the bay. Onkland Is as
handsome as Philadelphia but not so large.
When it is well built up it will resemble the
city of Brotherly Love very much, the streets
being level and wideand at right angles. Tnere
is room enough there for a city as large as
London. It can be built up ten miles by twen
ty on a perfect level, w.th a little filling up
here and tbere.
LIVEKMORE AUD JOAQUI VAI.LITI.
We took the cars of the Central Pacific at
Oakland, eastward, passing through a moun
tain gap to Ltvermore vallev which is a beau
tiful place, thence through another range or
mountains to the Joaquin (pronounced Ho-a-ken)
valley, which spreads out like a sea on ail
sides. We not oS the cars at Latbrop and took
the Vislia train, going twenty miles in a bee
lll'.e to S'anislaus (pronounced Stan-is-iaw) in
a county of the same name. Tbe road bends at
a river of that name, tbeu runs in a straight
line to Merced (pronounced Mar-sade);river,
where there.is a station namedaCressey, where
we got off and toeka carriage five miles to our
present home. The road continues on in a
straight line twenty miles more to Merced city,
the capital of the county, and then twenty
miles more to Borden, and then twenty miles
to Visaiia (the i is pronounced long) and then
twenty miles more to Keru river. All along
thisroudon each side for a hundred miles is
ono streak of w heat, extending toward the
mountains as far as the eye cun reach. The
Nevada mountains are about sixty-fiveand the
coast mountains about thirty-five miles from
the road. Tbere is timber along each river.
cbiefiy.Calircroia oak and willow, but the land
on each side is wheat, wheat, wheat, except
here and there a quarter section or rye or a
section of barley.
OUR HOME.
Our borne Is five miles from tbe station and
twenty rods from the river. There is a beau
tiful grove of timber all along the Merced,
about twenty or thirty rods wide. We have
shade trees planted around the house locust
trees. There i a vineyard of six acres between
our bouse and the river, and splendid gardens
on the river bottom. We have lots or neigh
bors. I can see three or four ranche nouses
from our house, and if the wheal was not so
high I could see a dozen. My brother-in-law
and my son have a thousand acre ranch, seven
hundred and fifty acres or which they have in
wheat and barley, and the wheat is just like a
rair average crop or wheat in your county. It
will yield firteen bushels to the acre. The bar
ley will double that that is my opinion. I
have not gone around the ranche yet. but 1
will te-morrow. You may judge of the size by
tho fact that on the first day they plowed tbey
only made three rounds from morning rial
night, that was about fifteen miies. Still their
ranch is only a speck among the other ranches.
Some persons have 20.000. pome 30,000 acres in
grain. I suppose people will not believe that,
b-ityou know I can't tell a lie. It is prema
ture to give an estimate, but lust year there
were 9.0. 0 bushels on the same ranch aud tbe
crop was not near half so good.
rne CLIMATE.
The weather is very warm and dry in day
time and very cool and damp at night. The
eveuing we arrived the heavens were overcast
with clouds and I would h.ive predicted rain,
but aext morning the sky was clear. Clouds
hang over the mountains east and west and we
can see snow Hlong the tops of the Nevada
at out sunset, but there is no rain in the clouds.
The wind grows strong and varies from point
to poiut. The wheat aud barley are a deep
green, but where the moisture comes from is a
mystery as the soil is gaudy if uot sand itself.
They have to haul straw along the roads to
keep the wagons from sinking down in tho
sand, particularity if tho sand is wet. The
last rain we had was on the 6th of May. Tt was
light bere but north aud south it was a soaking
rain. This was uncommon, as rains seldom
fall here after April 1st.
I must close this letter and I will not write
again till I receive some of my published let
ters. I expect some this week or next. It Is
toi much trouble to write fo " no hi tig; so if t
does not puy to puolish tl.ein I will not write
auy more. Ron Uot.

Mr. Editor Again I ask permsssion to wor

squirmed as be does In the article above re
reriel to. Bv rav soul. I b lUve the creature
is getting road. "Whom the gods destroy tbey
first make uiad." Let's see what he's crying
about now. In the first place I have no recol
lection of saying anything or aught aiaiutt
t'rovle township, as my remarks have been in
tended Tor the ring-worms of Summerhill, and
should any outside r that delectable littla set
tlement have taken offence. I humblv crave
their pardon. This does not include C. A If.
Secondly. I have neverdenied that South Foi k
seceded rroui the township, or rather rroui
he senool district or Croyle. She did such, and
her present prosperous condition, so rar aa
schooling and taxes are concerned, furnishes
the beft evidence that it was good to secede.
These evidences are manifest to all eyes, ex
cept, perhaps, the Sunnnerhillians. But, sir,
people who live In glasshouses ought not to
throw stones or bombshells either. The lead
ing spirits of that little village are at this very
moment engaged in a scheme which has for its
object th secession oT Summerhill. Their cry
is tor separation and an independent govern
ment as a borough. So much Tor the Union
sentiment or tbe uhat-it-it I Barnum lost an
animal or that species some time ago, and I
have thought perhaps C. Jt H. belonged to the
same tribe.
I deny the assertion that I m the leader of
the S. F. cut-worms. I am merely tbe medium
through which tbey speak. There are many
here who would and do fill that position far
more creditably thah I could, and being of a
modest, re til lug disposition, it wouldnot suit
me.
A nd now one word about the great war party
of Croyle. which your correspondent haa aeea
fit to lavish honors upon. It they are so war
like, probtiy the gentleman will explain a
much mooted question, which haa never been
Satisfactorily explained. I merely want to
know if he can give us any information about
a certain camp in the vicinity of Burke's Mill
during the late unpleasantness. That there
was a camp there, I am sure, but whether tbey
werestaioned there toguard the country from
a rebel raid, or to dodge the drart. I have never
been able to learn. Any information on that
subject will be thankfully received. aa It will
enable us then to form some estimate of that
great war spirit which be boasts of.
Hie illustrations employed by C. A II. to give
a vim to bis remarks, evince bad taste, and any
man that would quote from Jake Ogllne. Par
son Brownlow or Ben Butler, should never ac
cuse any one of indulging in billingsgate. I
feel sorry for V. A H., for unless some radical
change takes place, I am afraid he will some
day receive an invite to lunch ou brimstone stew
with his Satanic Majesty, or be elected a legis
lator. No missionary cau accomplish anything
in that party, and ir tbey persist in their evil
ways. I would remind them of the fate of tbe
cities of the Plains.
I hope this warfare may be carried on with
due regard to laws of nations, and allow me
to say, sir, it n my lett rs I bav said anytl in
that 1 am sorry for. I'm gla d of It.

TDK DYING MOTHER.
Willie, dearest, I am dying.
Come and kneel t eside my bed,
While I, with my falling breath.
Call a blessing on your head
While I ask or God to keep you.
And rroin ill you e'er to shield.
When my soul from earth haa fled
Whcu my lips by death are sealed.
Dim. and dimmer, grows my sight;
Faint, and fainter, comes my breath;
And e'en now around me stealing
Are the dark'niug shades of death.
Yes. my Willie, ere the morrow
You an orphan boy will be.
And this thought than dying, darling.
Gives a greater pain tome.
For I know that sad and lonly
Is the rriendlea orphan's life;
And the world's so full of danger
And with siu a:id sorrow rife.
Ah. I fear that oft my darling.
You'll be sadly, sorely tried.
And perchance, when worn and weary.
Be by the cold woild thrust aside.
Yes. mv heart is deeply pained
On this last night of my life ;
By the thought that you may yield
In the Tierceand fearful strife:
For with nene to nive you counsel,
Nnn to guide you on your way,
'Twill be ensy, dear, to Ie4d you,
Artivstt us you are, est ray.
Nor will the evil lessen
As you into manhood glide
Enares will then surround you
And danger be ou every side;
While means will ne er be wa.uUnj-
To lead you on to ill,
For Satan e'er hath minions
Who love to do his will.
But. mv darling. God is good.
And I'll leave vou to his care
He. my child, will ever listen
To the lonelv orphan's pi aver.
Then, mv Willie, trust in Him
He will let no ill betide you.
If you dailv, thro' life's Journey.
Atk of iliui to guard and guide you.
Then, my boy, whene'er you're tempted.
From virtue's path to stray.
Turn your thoughts at once to ilsavea
And bid the tempter go away.
Should e'er the haunts or vice tllureyou.
Flee in haste the dangerous sp-jt.
And if comradshid you enter.
Think, j our dying mother begged you not.
Now, kits mo once again, my Willie,
K sr I sleep ",lhe slep at death,"
For my strength Is failing rnpid
And still weaker grows my I rtn.
Farewell 1 farewel! my d.irli.ig chil I,
May augels guard you e'i r
Lead you safety thro" l.fe's j nirney.
Is your dyiug mother's prayer.
