78 days sail on the Pacific in the Sicilian Bark, with

that broke on our sight was the most beautiful ever I
witnessed—a harbor capable of containing the ships
of a world ; and there are some 200 now laying at

of the illace, nor can I give you one. Land here
is l worth almost 2 -4 300 per foot. I - louses like Avery
Frink's rent from s'6oo to tslooo per month. Hors

Finland for potatoes and 81.00 fbr butter, itc: But
merchandise is a drug, when bought , at whole

There is no God but gold—no Sunday observance
like the quiet of home ; but gamblers, and jockeys,
and knaves, and speculators rule. The 'Alcade de

charge ! any price they please; and yesterday I
heard 4 man tell his companion to give an ounce
