THE FRENCH EXPEDITION. —Art".irs in
France continue tranquil. The expedi
tion in aid of Pope Pius sailed on the 22d
u |t., and arrived ut Civita Vecchia, aud
would immediately proceed to Rome.—
It is understood thai the Pope will re
main at Gacta until the temper of bis re
volted subjects is first ascertained.
Sardinia. — The Sardinian Government
liate rejected the terms offered hy Aus
lna, and the two Governments are again at
issue. Tit® Piedmontese Ministers have
given flesh directions to the War Depart
ment to prepare for the immediate re
sumption of hostilities,
Austria. —The Austriaris have been
njain defeated in a general battle, and
\\Helen, the best General in the Austrian
service, as he has been called, has riot been
more succeesful against the Magyars than
was his predecessor. On the 20th, Wel
den concentrated all his forces, withdraw
ing even the garrison from the Pesth and
from the camp in the neighborhood of
(lien, for the purpose of making a gener
al combined attack upon the Hungarian
forces, Welden attacking them in thu front
and Jellachich and Schli-k taking them
in flank and rear. This grand combined
attack took place on the 2J and 21st, at
Gran, amended in the complete defeat of
Welden.
The account states that the Austrian*
were driven back, with the loss of 20 guns
and 2000 prisoners, and that they bad been
compelled to raise the siege of Comoro.—
ll is rumored in Paris that a murderous
engagement has taken place under the walls
cf Cotnorn, in which Gorgey had defeated
the Austrian*, that the latter had evacuated
Pesth, and that the Hungarians were under
ihe walls of Vienna, it was reported at
Vienna, on the 19th, that an insurrection
had broken out at Cracow.
As an offset to the foregoing, it is assert
ed bv the Vienna correspondent of the
Constitutional Zeitung, writing under date
of April 20, 9 P. M., that the Hungarians
were totally defeated near Giron, their
loss in prisoners alone being 2000. The
Austrian Government has decided to credit
200.000,000 florins Hungarian Treasury
Bonds, which are to be paid when they
are subdued. A Gazette states that 40,-
000 Russians had entered Montravia by
the Huthowins ; they bring the answer of
the Cabinet of St. Petersburg to that of!
Olmutz, to the question on what condition I
Prussia would place her diplomatic and
material resources at the disposition of the ,
Austrian Government. It is said that the i
abandonment by Austria of all influence |
in the Danubian principalities, is the price
demanded by Russia for services.
Denmark. —Hostilities still continue to
be waged between Denmark and Prussia,
without any marked preponderance on
either side likely to affect the general issue.
A large body of German troops entered
Jutland on the 20th u!t.
The town of Raiding, which lies about a j
mile and a half from the frontier of Schles
wig and ten from the frontier of Fredoupa,
was taken by the Schleswig troops under 1
Gen. Borin on the 20th instant, fighting
continually for many hours in the streets
before the town was evacuted by the Danes. j
The loss in killed and wounded is not given. '
Hamburg papers of the 24th contain no
further intelligence from Raiding, except j
that the city has suffered much from fire. ;
The German troops are in quiet possession. ;
It is ascertained that steps have been ra j
ken to induce Leopold, king of the Bel- )
gisns, to act the part of mediator.—
Whether he will or not accept this office
is not yet known; the last accounts were
that the Danes were assembling in large
numbers on the heights beyond Raiding.
NAVLES AND SICILV. —The war between
these two powers still contiuues. Ihe ad
vantages 3re all on the side of Naples.—
In addition to Catania, Solo has surrender
ed lo the Neapolitan troops. Palermo
has also prepared to capitulate.
THE MARKETS. — The Htbernia brings
Liverpool date 9 down to the 28th all.—
Trade in Liverpool had been very dull. —
The London Money Market is represent- i
ed a-, being steady. Consols closed at 92 !
to 91 \ The French are firm.

FROM CALIFORNIA.
from the New Orleans 1 icajune, MJ 8.
Bv the arrival of the ship I yrone, from
Vera Cruz, we have authentic accounts
from San Francisco to the 7th of March.
T: e annexed letters were brought down
from San Francisco to Mazallan by 4 ' r -
Parrot, who lately went to California as
nearer of dee patches- It will be seen j
'oai the steamship Cs .forma It is been en-
Prely deserted by ber new, which ac
f uii's for her non-arrival at Panama,
But we need not anticipate the letters
which we now append, and for which we
indebted to the courtesy of Mr. CI if- -
f "d, of the house of CiifFrd At Garr, of
"f.is cttv, to whom they were addressed
Pv htj partner, Mr. Andrew Garr. Mr.
Garr went up fruui the Isthmus in tho j
Lsliforiua :
Han FKAcI*CO, Mar. 2. 1849.
My Dear C.—l have the pleasure to <l
our safe arrival at this place on the
ultj, after a tedious passage of twen
ty fluyt from Panama. Wa were
Stained nearly a week at Montcisy, shout j
'" ie! y miles below this, in consequence j
being short of fuel; after taking j
t*tnty cord* wood, we arrived here with
about two hours' supply of fuel on band.
I have been on shore but a short time,
j and am heartily surprised with everything
that I see Speculationofall kinds is rife,
and exceeds anything I ever witnessed in
j Mississippi in ihe palmy days of '3O and
, i • Town lots are held at the must exorbi
i 'ant prices, and every lot-holder is worth
I h'ty to two hundred nnd fifty thousand
dollars. 1 have yet had no moans of as
certaining the stale of affairs generally, as
1 was prevented going on shore yesterdav
j in consequence of a severe cold, but be".
I lieve that there is an unnatural and fictitious
i value placed on every thing, which will
j soon be corrected. Merchandise and labor
. are extraordinarily high.
In relation to the mines, there is un
questionably an abundant supply of gold,
and it is continually discovered in new
| places. 1 lie gold region is now believed
: to extend down ns low as Lower Califor
nia.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 7, 1849.
My Dear C• —l vvrote to you a few
• days since on our arrival, and avail of the
detention of the vessel for Mazitlan, to
give you some iieins of matters and tilings
in this delectable country. In the first
place, so far as one can learn, gold stories
are all true. The consequence is that
labor, rents, provisions, A:e., are enor
mously high. Town property for cash is
beyond any thing ever heard of in a new
1 country, and lols are selling in this place
j froin five to twenty thousand dollars ; rents
! from five hundred lo one thousand dollars
per month. Carpenter's wages eight to
ten dollars per day. The steamer CaJi
fornia is deserted by every soul except the
captain and chief mate, and there is no
probability of her leaving under two or
three months. This is speculation on m\
pirl, for mere is no saying when she will
get either fuel or a crew.
Fifty to one hundred dollars per day is
nothing extraordinary for miners to make.
There is, however, some danger from In
dianß and our own countrymen, prowling
about the country, committing murder and
theft. Gold is very abundant and goods
high, and an immense popu
lation coming forward, who all resort to
the mines and return merely lo throw a
way the proceeds of their labor. In fact,
I can hardly give you an idea of tho state
of the country. Those who have been
here a year, with common industry and
prudence, are worth from twenty thousand
to two hundred dollars. I have not been
able to piocure board in the place, ami in
company with Mr. Frazer and young Du
cros, have pitched our tent a quarter of a
mile from town. Wages of servants $1.70
to S2OO per month, and in the course of
two or three weeks, when it will be season
able weather to go to the mines, none will
be had at any price. You may judge what
a state of things exists when common la
borers can go to the mines and return in
a month or six weeks with from one to
three thousand dollars in gold.
It is yet too early for the mass to start
to the mines, the weather having been
very inclement. Wo intend to go up to
the mines and see the country, aud have
formed a party of five for that purpose.—
The price of passage to Sutter's Fort is
$35 each and $3 per cut. for baggage'
and provisions. We have an idea of buy
ing a whale boat, the price is S7OO. From j
Sutters's Fort to tne Stanislaus the tr ins- j
portation is difficult and expensive, as a
team of oxen and wagon earn 8100 per ,
day.
Gold is selling at 914 per ounce, but
is taken in trade at sl6. It is worth in
Valparaiso slß,and would net: in the Slates j
£l7, ill expenses paid.
FROM THE FRONTIER. Letters from
St. Joseph, Mo., dated April 25;1i, say :
From what I have been able to ascer
tain, there appears to be a greater number
of emigrants rendezvousing at this point
than at Independence. At the commence
rnenl of the season this was not Htiticipa
led by the good people of the latter place,
or expected by tho business men or citi
zens c! St. Joseph.
The roads, in every direction, are lined
with wagons of emigrating paities frurn
the lower countries of Missouri, and from j
lowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois
The majority of these intended moving
leisurely as far as Fort Kearney and Coun- j
cil Bluffs, and there make iht r ti al start |
Up to this time at least three thousand j
emigrants ha*e arrived at this point, en
route for California. Several companies'
have already departed, and are now about
one hundred miles from the frontier; tl.ey
intended remaining in camp for some days
at Grand Island, which i* about two hun- |
dred and eighty miles distant. The roads i
from Independence, St. Joseph, Fort Kear
ny and Council Bluffs, there connect.—
The trying times to many w ill arise be
fore they succeed in reaching Grand Is- j
land- Postal communication ceases after ,
leaving their several places of rendezvous,
and the emigrant has no ready means to
communicate to his friends his progress,kc. j
From the Lexington, Mo., Express, we j
clip the following ;
Hardly on hour tn the day pas-es, but
what wagons may be seen passing nu their
way to California. Many, we learn, take |
the left hand road at Old Town, and go to
Independence. Others cross the river;
train after train are passing up.
A letter in the St. Louis Reveille, dated
near Fort Reainy, April 24th, says :
Wc are all in good spirits, aud have, 1
think, passed through almost the greatest
trials of our trip—tho '* breaking in" part
being generally the hardest part of an un
(iertakiug. Indeed, our early arrival here
has been very advantageous to us, ns we
shall be completely prepaied for 'he jour- j
ncy, for ita exposures and all emergencies, j
We'have nothing to apprehend from tho
Indians, not even the stealing of our ani
mals. This point has been selected by t
the Mormons as much the best route to
the States, either in returning or going out
and will be taken by those emigrating this
spring. Several hundred Mormons are
, expected here in a few days. The Buffa
! lo are very numerous two hundred and fif
ty miles front this. Advise friends to pro
, cure everything either at St. Louis, Inde
pendence or St. Joseph, as nothing but corn
i can be procured here, and even that not
| conveniently. This route is very desira
ble, the road, for several hundred miles,
| being unexcepttonably good; plenty of wa
iter is found in the valley of the Platte by
| digging two and a half feet, wherever
j they choose to camp. The water is bet
ter in warm weather than when procured
from the river. This is important to tra
; vellers, as they can stop t.> camp whenev
er t hey wish, and, besides after striking tho
Platte, The road is parallel with it for sev
eral hundred miles, i have r.ot learned
! about the facility of procuring wood, hut
i it is not so important as water and grass
j that is, if those emigrating are properly
! provided with pilot bread and dried meals
| as we are ; also with chafing dishes and
spirits of wine. We are thus entirely
: independent of wood and buffalo chips
i particularly when it rains— and can make
our coffee under the lent or in the wagon.
