Arrival of the Empire City.
-The steamer Cheivkeei of Howland and
Aspinwall's line from Chagres, arrived at
New York on Friday evening, March 26th.
She brought gold on freight to the value of
$1,053,471.
The steamship Emptre City, Capt. John
Tanner, arrived on Friday evening from Cha
gres, bringing 15:3 passengers, in whose
hands, is a very large amount of gold dust,
estimated at near a million of dollars.
Tht! pacific Nlail steamer Oregon, Capt.
Pattetton. sailed from San Francisco on the
l•tfen.ng of the Ist March, and arrived at Pa
tiaria on the 20th.
'he brought to Panama 262 passengers,
and $1,343,602 on freight principally in gold
dust, and at least $1,000,000 in possession
of the passengers.
One of the passengers by the Oregon
brought down with him n lump of gold for
'vhich he was otThred $4OOO. The fortunente
finder of.this lurrip had toiled without sue:
cess for several months, when he was thus
amply rewarded for his exertions.
The quantity of gold dust, in the hands of
'the miners is large ; and they were taking
advantage of the improvement in the weath
er, to bring it, down to San Francisco. The
succeeding steamers, it is expected, will
bring larger amounts than have yet been sent
to the United States.
It was quite healthy at SMI Francisco,

The information from the southern iiiines
genenilly, is' quite encouraging. Those
who worked faahltilly, during the winter,
in the Blushes around the :Oita'haunt: and
between the Stairislans, and the Tuolumne;
.have done well, better, perhaps, than those
'on the Mariposa, and farther south. It is
vermin that new placers have been round en
the tipper part of the Stanisbus, and about
the Nrlerced and Mariposa.
For several days past we have had a 93

Washington's birth day was celebrated

Doubling the Cape.
A jolly, good-natured fellow, who went I
round Cape Horn to California, gives the
following account of his experience ie'd•Rub-

plating a voyage to the gold diggings would
do well to give it a perusal :
"It is impossible to describe the scenery
in the vicinity of Cape Horn: It is till it is
'cracked up to be.' Ihe elements were in
such nn incessant turmoil, that we had to I

Virginia Gold Mines.
The several mines in Virginia are repro
flted to be in full operation now, and with
he aid of good machinery sonic of them are
producing fair results. The White 1-fall
mines continue to yield handsome profits,
and a correspondent of the Fredericksburg,

owned by Col. John P. .?dams, of Baltimore,
is becoming very productive, and promises
to take, a stand among the first mines in the
