PA:I%mA, July 23, 7849.
The accounts from the mines are very contra
dictory, but digging appears to go on briskly.
Many. of • Stevenson's regiment are prowlin
obout and-eommitting depredations upon the Chil
lane and Peruvians. .
Mechanics of every kind are in great request,
and carpenters command any rate of wages.
Notwitstanding the absence of civil law, the
country remains in a perfectly tranquil state, and
no depredations of an atrocious character have oc
curred except three committed by the volunteers
Houses still command enormous rents', and lod
ging is stated to be as high as three dollars per
night, without a bed to lie on.
There are about toUr hundred persons now in
Panama.
Since the sailing of the Crescent City, six Amer
icans have died on the Isthmus.
California, generally, is very healthy.
- We have gleaned the folloWing interesting infor
mation respecting California, the gold mines and
the people, from a gentleman who was passenger
in the steamship Faleon, and who comes direct
from San Francisco.
The health of Sari Francisco is good, and the
residents of the town much more orderly and quiet
than could be anticipated.
The gambling houses are all closed on Sunday,
and labor of every kind suspended, although worth
from ten to fifteen dollars per day.
Four churches have been already built, and
another expected daily to arrive.
The most respectable Americans reside in the
city and there are rarely any difficulties, except
such as occasionally arise between the immigrants
and the native's.
The market has been completely overstocked
with goods. Clothing sells for less than in the
States. '
l'Houses and lumber are very high and scarce. A
house about forty feet long by twenty feet wide,
worth in. the States tour hundred dollars, would
readily sell here for $:2,500. The expenie of put
ting it up would be full seven hundred dollars.
Gold continues plenty. Large quantities of it
were daily arriving. It was selling for $l5 per
ounce, for specie, arid ink - en at $l6 per onuce in
payment for goods.
Though immense quantities of gold had been
found, it Was considered to be unexhausted.
On the Ist of Aug ust a convention was to have
been held, at which delegates were to be chosen, to
form a 'llerritorial government, when it is intended
to apply for admission into the Union.
At the mines 'Lynch law was supreme. When
a man is caught stealing, a jury .is chosen, the evi
&nee heard, and Should he be convicted, he is im.
mediately flogged and driven away from the niine,

Dr. Seth W. Fowle,—Dear Sir: I have been in
duced, in conse q uence of the benefits received from
your medicine, to add my testimony in favor of its
extraordinary healing properties. Having been af
flicted for several months with a severe LIJN c dis
ease, under-which I labored with shortness of breath
and great bodily weakness, I was recommended by
a Physician of Hacketstown, (N. J.,) to try DR.
WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY,
Which not only gave me relief, but restored my fail
ing strength, and also imparted new life and energy
to my system. I can therefore cheerfully recom
mend to all afflicted with lung diseases, to try this
Balsam of Wild Cherry. Respectfully yours,
THEODORE J. ALLEN.

New York, Saratoga Springs, and a number of other
places, I was in Roston on the 4th of last March,
and called at your office and bought a bottle of
your Sherry Wine Bitters. After I returned home
I bought. more. I commenced gaining from the
very first. I have taken three bottles, and am now
well. My case was despaired of as certainly in
curable, but in three months I gained fifty-seven
pounds—which is surprising, as I have eaten nothing
but bread and milk. I shall continue the same.—
Your medicine is doing much good.

I certificates in our possession, but we do not deem

We beg leave, however, to call public attention to
the following letter, addressed to a citizen of this
- county by the superintendent of an extensive manu
facturing establishment in Franklin county:
CHAMBERSBURG, April 28, 1849.
Ma. HENRY E. LenAtc:—Your favor of the 25th
inst., is at hand, and in -reply say that the Grind
stones we run with Wortz's wheel are from 5 to 6
feet high, 9 to 12 inches thick, weighing trom,3 to
5000 lbs. We formerly used an undershot wheel
12 feet wide and 14 feet high. Our head .in an
ordinary stage of the water is about 3 feet, 3 or 4
inches. SoMetimes much less than that. With.
the old wheel we run two grindstones. In the Same
place we have now four of Wortz's wheels (3 36
and 1 40 inches,) running four grindstones and one
trip hammer weighing about 80 lbs. with less water
and doing more work in the same time. In regard
to the quality of the wheel for the purpose of
grinding, it is far superior to any I have ever used
or seen used, and for a low head I believe it is the
best wheel in use—during the whole winter (which
has been unusually cold) we have not been affected
at all with the ice, and in high water at a stage
which would stop the old wheel entirely, we now
Lind no inconvenience from back water. Any fur
ther information on the subject I will be happy to
communicate, or it you could make it convenient
to visit Chambersburg I will take great pleasure in
showing you the wheels. Respectfully, yours,
