EXPLOBfIInNS IS, CfUFOBSIA. Tbe liorax lake amt Suliilinr Ranks iu ftajm valley—ij«iier from i*r. tla.iginvan. r -(Correspondence of the N. YV Post ] Caiastoga-Sfuings, . NapV Valley, Cal. Ocu>b£r,;;lB66.—Tbe Napa- Valley,-in Cali fornia, is about forty miles long from north to south, and averages nearly, two miles iu breadth,,: Jo is one great wheat-held; haying this year yielded a crop of t wenty to Iwemy nve nushels to the acre, which is about a third more, I believe, than the average yield of the Genesee country in Hew York, Iu Borne places steam machinery was used in harvesting. I met a farmer in the upper part.of the valley yesterday who hadiust disposed of his farm of three hundred acres at forty dollars per acre. Ab he was an early settler, the land cost him little or nothing, and as he has received at least a thousand dollars a year fromit since Cali foriik was tiret settledi hebas evidently done belter tben tboae wbo dogdireofcly for gold. AH who devoted themselves to agri enltnre bave’beensucces-ful. The house and barns here remind one of Western New York. There are two styles of chimney-building, by the observation of which you can tell whether its occupant is an eastern or a western man; the former having the chimney inside, and the other having it on the outside of the honse, Tuere . is a weed here which gives a homelike ap pearance to the country—the mullen. A farmer recently sent tw the East for its seed which he planted for medicinal purpose's hnt whether he will be esteemed a public benefactor/for tnis experiment in acclima tization, Is questionable. It has already spread over this valley, and will soon ex tend throughout the (state. For the most part, Che valley is as um brageous now as before its cultivation; the beautjful oaks with which it was studded still remaining. The first settlers of Cali fornia had not before them dense forests nor treeless plains; but a country which, when viewed from the mountains, presents the appearance of an-English part. THE CALIFORNIA SARATOGA. - _ Napa. Valley is a favorite place of resort of the citizens of “Frisco,” the abreviated Bame fen their metropolis, when they desire to escape from its dust and fogs. It has be come their Saratoga., At the entrance to to the valley is a soda Bpring, the waters of which are bottled and used throughout the country. In the middle, among sequestered and woody hills, there are the White Sul phur SpriDgs, with a hotel and cottages, to which many invalids resort wiin advantage; and here, iu the upper part of the valley are hot and sulphur springs. This is Caliscoga, a fancy name for a place which will become magnificent. Mr. Brannan, its public spirited proprietor, a pioneer among the pioneers of the State, has expended a fabu lous sum in planting trees over the shallow, heated soil, beneath which boiling water flows in every direction, some of its streams being highly charged with sulphur. Success is rewarding his efforts, and all that is needed to make Calis toga a Saratoga—shady walks—is being accomplished. Stages leave Calietoga daily for the geysers, whichl have just visited. . . - - Mount st. Helena. Before beginning the ascent of Mount St. Helena, wnfch bounds this valley on the east, you pass a 1 depot of borax and sul phur,, w tire those commodities, alter being transported across the mountains In teams of six mules, carrying six tons, are trans ferred into teams carrying ten tons, drawn by eight mules, to the railway.for shipment In steamers to Ban Francisco. Theeicel lent road, just completed, which is carried on the steep acclivities of the monntains, by the side oi precipices a thousand feet deep In some places, has been constructed pur posely for the conveyance of those valuable minerals. Mount St. Helena, whose peak Is one of the loftiest of the coast range, hav ing an altitnde of three thousand six hun dred feet, has been pressed by the feet of the illustrious Humboldt, who left a monu mental inscription there which some bar barian—not a Digger Indian—has removed. A PLACE FOR SPORTSMEN, Nearly an entirely day is consumed in tha journey to the borders of Clear Labe, tue road taking yon through Cayote to other small valieys, and over an arid country, its two streams being nearly dry. These are the Chachh and the Puta. This region is the paradise of sportsmen, hare and grouse being extremely abundant, the latter being so common that I readily gave credence to the statement of one who had killed seventy at one Bhot. Since bears, panthers, wild cats, cayotes, foxes and other formidable animals have beoome scarce small game has greatly multiplied.. Deer are still common and their tracks give the mountain sides a terraced appearance. . VALUABLE SPRINGS. The mostremarkableleatnre of the country in Cayote Valley is a hill ot ochre, througn •which a creek makes its -way. On arriving at Lower (Clear) Lake there was sufficient tune for a visit to/Sigler’s Springs, which lie seven miles distant on the same mountains aa the geysera, though on,theoppositeor west ern side. The picturesque and secluded val ley in which these, the most valuable of the springs of California, are found,has advant age of being well watered, and unlike any other portion of the.Btate.is ii» perpetual ver dure.. Besides a natural fountain whose "waters cannot be distinguished frqm Con- " gress water, there are hot sulphur and ferra giuous baths supplied by springs whfce sup ply lslilimitabler A rude edifice,serving as a rudimentary hotel, has been erected by the proprietor, who personifies Galen and Boni tace, -and very well too, ail things con sidered. Mounds of tnffa, enormous masses of trachyte and serpentine, (with veins of cinnabar, in this hitherto unexplored val toy> invite a visit from geologists. "Were this nlace not so difficult of access, it would be thronged with visitors from all parts of the (Pacific States. BORAX LAKH. /Returning to the lo wer part of Clear Lake —a magnificent sheet of water twenty miles long and from two to ten in breadth—we re sumed oar journey to its objective point, Borax Lake; not, however, until we had first seen evidence of the volcanic character of the country by traversing hills covered With absidian, and by having a glance atf springs from which carburetted hydrogen Lanes in quantity snfficlentfor iUuminatine purposes, if Wanted. B Borax Lake iB about one hundred miles north of San Francisco. .Properly speaking . itisapond, being *.nly one mile long ami naif a mile wide. It is situated on a penin sula which juts into Clear Lake.from which it is separated by a mountaiu. It Ain brief a crater of an extinct volcano,Sat least presenting that appearance. That my reader may duly appreciate the Sari tv of the curiosity before him, I would remind him that probably no white man ever saw its like— -there being no other of the kind save in Thibet. Before the discovery of Borax Lake is Camornia, there were but two sources of supply of borax to meet the de mand ol the world-that of Thibet, and that of a firm in Liverpool who manufacture the article by a'chemical process. ■ 1 ~ Iron coffer dams, having chambers abont five feet square, are sunk in uie laker the water is bailed oat of the dams, the mud in them being pressed by men stamping on boards that cover it, and the concrete taken ashore nnd dried in the sun7the largest borax crystals being picked up dar ing this operation. Crystals are found from the size of a hen’s egg to that af a pea..

VVfcat One .Woman* llltf, .At the outbreak of the rebellion a north ern-hoi d woman of firm Union principles lived in Alabama, Her situation was so critical that her husband sent her to too 1. lends, piomising that-he would not take’ up arms against his country. Daring the whole four years of the war she was unable to hear from him,until on returning to Ala bama shejearned that he bad fdlen in the iirfct bailie of Bull Run. She then resolved in her desolation to devote herself to the welJaie ot the fwediueD, bj bvcoaiitig tbeir teacher. The Christian register tells the stroy: ■ . ‘‘Oiten was she hooted at and even stoned id her waikato and from school, by rude toy sor the students > of am academy in the town,though the sad*veil of her widowhood drawnclcseiy around her might havoin vited pity instead of insult. - The, good wo man, who protected and lodged her was per secuted and shunned because she sheltered •a Yankee schoolmarm,’ Insult, danger, com plete social isolation and hatred Mrs. could bear unmoved, until they threatened her only white friend, l'hen she tot k refuge In a black man’s home. Finally an order- from President Johnson threat ened the removal of theFreedmen’s Bureau fiem ihe town. The officer in chafge warned Mrs. —■ that-her life would not be safe one moment after tbesllght protection of the Bureau was withdrawn. • . With ..a- sad .heart she bade her colored friends ‘goodby,’ paoked her trunk, and sat waiting one - morn tag for the stage. The door of her room was suddenly opened. Locking up she recognized Mr. -r— —, one of the most influential men in the county, Be greeted her respectfully, and coming hastily to where sbe was seated on an old box, earnestly begged her to stay among them. For momhs he had watched her closely, and observed her great influence for good over the colored people. He would do all in his power to protect her from in sult; sbe should continue her labors hence forth shielded by his authority. A stranger so long to kindness and sympathy from a white man, no wonder she was overpowered, and tears were her only answer to this un looked-for reward, of her patient endurance. Sbe stayed. -What a regiment of soldiers conld not have accomplished, this one weak woman has done. Through weakness was she made strong. She has revolutionize:! public sentiment in the whole country. Un flinching courage and steadfast devotion have won the victory.” Spurgeon on Candles. ft A Fine Spectacle.
