Wo know not how to sufficiently collect our thoughts or bur.ener gies under (his stunning blow. In little more than three hours, at least two thirds of tho wealthiest por» tion of tho City has been consumed. .The properly of the heaviest houses in (own—tho hard earnings of years of successful industry—have been swept away. Gloom and desolation has settled on many a stout heart. Many a man -in easy circumstances has boon brought to the verge of ruin; The Com mercial greatness oC'this fair City has received a shock from which it will not recover for many a month to come. It is the will of God—we bow with ' humility (o this awful dispensation of an all wise ' providence. * 1 <> 16 ro or, *S* natc d In d baok building attached to UieSucmncntu House, between Sacramento and Clay streets. It commenced a little before 8 o’clock, A. and os the wind was high at (ho time, it'com municated quickly with the adjoining buildings.— When we arrived at tho scene of conflagration, the Homos were roaring in on immense volume from (ho mrcclion ofSaoramcnlo street to the corner of Mont gomery and Clay. Tho Mayor and al) the principal citizens were promptly on the groond, but tho. sup. ply (of w_alor being limited, no effort was of any avail to arrest Its progress, short of Clay street—.

Mr. Wagleo s loss is comparatively trifling. The* entire lors is sstimatod at from three to four millions of dollars. Tho 4th bf July was celebrated at Panama, with processions, speeches, dinners, dtc. Panama continues to bo very healthy. There arc pul few cases of any kind of disease among thu cm* ■grants, and as (ho weather conlinucs cool and plea* saht, tho least care on the purl of strangers will gen. crafty protect them from the danger of illness. Tho number of Americans at Panama, at (he lime the Crescent City left, was less than al any timo within tho Inst six months. This is attributed to tbo superior facilities afforded to passengers for Sah Francisco, There are steamers leaving every week, so (hat those arriving without through tickets can got off without an difficulty, in a few days. Throughout the Mining .Regions** groat deal of inactivity prevails. Thejwator is yet too high to al low successful digging/and the great bulk of the miners are leisurely awaiting tho fall of tho streams.

Wo have, says tho Albany Culth valor, 1 la former years, made wins from the rod cur* rant by the following recipe, which was .considered of so line a quality .as to be ordered by the physl cians fur their patients, in prcfsronco to imported kinds. Its cast was not over fifty cents per gallon. To each gsilsh of clear juice was added two gal lons of water,-and to each gallon ofllio mixture was added throe and a half pounds of brown sugar.— After (ho sugar waa dissolved, (ho liquor was pul into good barrels, placed in (he.cellur; ond when thd fermentation hud subsided, it was bunged tightly.— In February, ono gallon* oftho boat fourth proof brandy was added to ths barrel. In May following, il was bottled. Llko oilier wines, il improves with age. While wine may .bo mode with white currants/ using the same proportion of white sugar us is ns* med of brown, tor the obbve,—the liquor to be troa. ted in the tome way,- except lhal'no braddy lx ad ded.

Pour it Into a tub; and when of a proper warmth; into the barrel, with toast and yeast to work, which (hero is more difficulty to make it to do than most other liquors. When it cesses' to hiss, pnt a quail of brandy to eight gallons, and Hop up. Dot’ 110 in (ho spring or at Christmas. The liquor must bo in a warm place to make il work. Black Currant Wide* This wins has always been regarded os highly useful in M summer complaint,” a most distressing and too frequently fatal disease. Some of it should always be kept on hand.
