Natural Philosopher, by means of 'a newly

I vof Gold ore, %mitred at nearly one mil
lion of Dollars, which he collected there,
4,1 m: before the exi , tence of the Gold mines
became known to the residents of Califor
nia geLerally.
History of the Discovery.
• : Signor D'Alvear went ont to California
neatly two years ago, in consequence df
certain information which he had received
of the geological character of that country,
with the firm belief that vast mines of pre
cious mull!; ;1', , 0-1 be revealed there, upon
Ica:clot in% P' . l - r.filion. He was encouraged
to this enterprise; also, by his confidence in
the powers of . a certain Magnetic instru
tmmt which he had invented, called the
"Goldomefer," by whose aid he expected to
be directed at once to the ''Gold [lacers,"
if any sneh existed. Nor were bis expec•
tations disappointed. Ilk scientific calcu
lat Mas proved to be nionded in truth and
pr:olound wisdom. and his new instrument,
the - Goldometer,' fulfil led his highest hopes.
In less than two months alter reaching Cal
ifornia, he struck upon one of the richest
gold mines in that country, uptal
scare branch of the Sam:lntent() river, in
a gorge of hills extremely roelty and diffi
cult olacee•i;' and seldmu visited by the na
tive Califluniams. Disguising his object
under the pretence of purely scientific re
search, he ohtainedtheaid of some filter n
or twenty simple and faithThl Ind;ans, and
steadily pursued his task, collecting often
more than $3,000 worth of gold in a single
day which he concealed -in a deep ravine,
without exciting any suspicion whatever,
mild after the discovery of gold at Capt.
stiwec, dill, when the mountains were ran
sacl:Cd colds and Signor D'Al
c^ar',
",ro'd placer" the richest in all Cal
ir'irnia• was beset with g,ready adventurers.
It is now found that the real mines or sour
ces of die gold,Tic in the gorges of Moun
tains, and ma in the he'd; of sands of the
rivers. Previous in leaving California,
Signor D'A Iveg I sold his instrumenr. the
Goldometer, a very imperfect one, for 5.1,000 .
The person who purchased it confidently
expected to oak' a handsome fortune, by
simply finding "• old placers" and selling
out the right of di„ging to the gold work-

if taken according to directions. This !me
dicine is the invention of a. celebrated and
learned phys'cian living near the Calfskin

credit if used enough to feel its effects.and

TIM author of this work seems to have
had in constant view the celebrated treatise
of Lucian—" How a history ought to be
written." Truth in ii severity, and reas
on in its manly state d are the chief Muses
and graces to which he has done obedience.
What a different view has been opened to
to us of the state of nations of by-gone
age, from that which has been presented
to us by other historians. No wonder that
the numbers allready iFsued met with ,a
large sale, and have been hailed by frequent
laudatory notices of the press, of which a
few abridged extracts here subjoined.
[From the DemocratiC Rainy.)
This beautiful octavo—the first volume
of Dr. Elebbe's Universal History—forms
the initial volume of a new and greatly.im
proved work, devoted to the history of the
Universe, based not merely upon the usu
ally received data of former historians but
derived from the !Tin authoritie, attested
by revelations of modern discovery. The
recent researches in archeology by Cheva
lier Bunsen, and other learned investigators,
among ancient monumental records,,have
so entirely ehang,cd-the aspect of primitive
times and revealed so many important new
data, that the wonder has been not that
such a work as the present should make its
appearance bur rather that the task should
not have been befor e attempted in Furdpe,
From a somewhat carefuj examination of
this volume, however we find no cause to
regret that the theme should have been re
served for the judicious and laborious press.
of Dr. Hebbe. Tosuch as cannot command
the leisure for more systematic course of
study, this work proves eminently impor
tant and valuable, since, whon completed;
ii will form a compendouslibrary of uni
versal history, the most accurate and com
plete extent, and written up to the spirit of
the age.
[From the N. York Tribune Sept, 23 I
In regard to the literary execution of this
work, we have spoken as the numbers ap
peared, but not as fully as its merits deserve
Now, on re-examination, we hesitate not to
pronounce that this volume, as a history of
the cattiest period of mankind has no rival
in any single work of universal history in
the English language.
[Prom Graham's 21 . 1aga2ine.]
The ;author of the Universal History,now
in publication, judging from the portion of
it already published, is equal to his task.
He comes to it prepared by twenty years At
study, end a familiar acquaintance with nil
the neeessary authorities, not only those to
whom we look for solid records of facts hat,
those 'tyl.o have gone beneath the surface
of eventcond tracked_ the source of political
couvu!siot,s by a 'thousand pulse back to
the hidden heart' of some great principle.
[From the Boston Transcript.] -
Dr. iHcbbe, by availing himself of the
light which the Egyptian hierologists and
other investigators of antiquity, have shed
on the earliest history of man, by means of
his vast et uditions enabling him to avoid
the errors of compilers, and to draw from
the original and most undoubted sources of
authority: and by his amte Judgment, his
liberal philosophy, his deep sympathy with
humanity, and his enthusiastic love for his
favorite study has produced what may be
termed in many respects an original histo
ry of the infant nations of the world. The
work is written in the most enlarged and
liberal , spirits, while the author rejects the
superstitution of the ancient priesthood, he
is a stdut defender of the immortal and sub
lime tinths of Christianity.

in a tongue foreign to him, is alwitysflow.
