California in Slices.
A carrier pigeon, which took wing from the
*Mee of the California Star, San Francisco,
only a week ago, brings us very late intelligence
from our Californian correspondent. We doubt
whether Messrs. Porter & Robjohn's atrial
steamer, which is advertised by handbill, to
start "on or about the 15th of April," will out
strip in speed our feathered " couriers of the
air." But here is our friend's letter, word for
word, as it reads in the original, which was tied
with two strands of mule's hair, to the left leg
of the bird t and if any one doubts the authen
ticity of the document, or the alleged method
of its transmission, let him drop into our office
for the purpose of seeing the manuscript and
the winged messenger who conveyed it :
AMERICAN Funx, March 1, 1849.
'the diggin has commenced. I can
see from my shanty a movie spectikul
of more'n a thousand heads—some a
bobbin up and down, and some a see
corning backards and forrards, accordin
as the owners is to work to fill the en
dles, or a rockin of the same. Two so
ciations have arriv since the rains with
steam engines but the fellers warnt
satisfied with the work the engines done,
and said they blowed oft' too much va
por; so they tied down the safety waives
to keep it in ; whereupon the steam
bursted everything to almighty smash,
and scalded the whole bilin. One of
the surwivera. a fine spoken young man
from Little Falls, who went up on the
welkin beam and came down by the run,
remarked after the highst, that water in
a state of abolition was a powerful agent.
Jennison's machines takes well ;
and
many a miner, who has to stand bare
legged all day in the water, would be
very glad of his pumps and hose. The
difficulty, when you have got the gravel,
is to bring the water, which, in course,
is necessary, to carry off the stuff you
don't want.
There is a good deal of frute here in
the vallies, but those who vally health
don't eat it. Grapes and gripes goes to.
gether. Some grain has been sowed
here since the ruin ; but there is so
much metal in the sile, that all the wheat
is killed with the rust There's more'n
thirty thousand people at the mines, and
provishuns is rapidly goin up. Deer
meet is cheap, and praiaie dogs dog
cheap—the latter is not unholsum,as by
dryfoby is unknown in these parts.—
Brandy—the worst kind—is all the time
egrejusly high, and so is the lower class
of miners. There is a minister here
now who continually preaches temper.
ance, and says that the worm of the still
is the father of the worm that is never
still, and that the spirit must answer
for the flesh ;
but they don't mind him.
Fish of alt and sizes is found
in the streams, been all of a bright gold
color in consekence of the gold sands :
and the kingfishers, which feeds upon
them is also yaller. Yeller is likewise'
the prevalin kuller of the trees, frutes,
and flowers; and the sky from the re
flection of the site, looks kinder green
.—a mixture of yeller and blue, The
injuns, as you hey no doubt heern tell,
is a sorter dirt darkened yaller, and it
is astonishin how soon white folks be-'
gin to turn yeller after they get to grub
bin among the gold. In fact, this is a
little the yallerest kuntry altogether on
this hemisphere of the earth.
New cummers arrive here at the rate
of hundreds a day—some fat and jolly,
others so maciated that they look like
frames et man, just set up and started
ahead without the flesh and mussels.
A party arriv yesterday that cum by
the plains, and complain orfutly of their
suffer:as. They say that nothin ever
endoored on board tender ships at sea,
could equal their hardships on shore.
They started forty and came in twenty,
one half havin eatin the other. They
brought locks of all the wictum's hair
for keepsakes, and to show that they
was not ungrateful for past favors. The
winds of the plains seems to sharpen
the appetite and blunt the feelins.
ThOse that came through Mexico get
into a muss about their muskets. No
sooner do they land at Vera Croos, than
all hands is required to give up their
arms, in order that the darned thieves
may rob them without the danger of
Kevin their karkases perpretrated with
a bullet. If you want to scupe a Mexi
can muss cum by the Ismuss. The
people of Cruces is better to deal with
than the thieving Very Crooses.
The Californy steamer sailed from
San Francisco jest before I left, with an
unknown quantity of preshus metal, the
Lexington also went home with such a
sum wouldent like to name. Informa
tion has probably got to York, that
lumps of 150 pounds has been picked
up by small boys in the lower diggins,
and you may believe any thing you
like of the riches of the kuntry, for the
estimates is nowhere near the mark. In
the heart of the Sarah Nevady a spring
of quick-silver, they say, has bursted
oat; and as fast as it flows, it thickens
up with alb gold that lays around all
in heaps,. Wonderful are the works of ,
natur ! Some prefers the wet diggins,
but the majority is located on the dry.
—lt is all dry diggin ire this seesun.
Furrineers cums in faster 'an ever, trac
ted, as a German rag-picker said 'toth
er day, by "the luker of cain." I think
Uncle Sam ought to hey his toll out of
the untold wealth these aleyans expect
to carry off. A tonnage duty would do.
I would say more, but this is about as
much as my pigeon at San Francisco
will be able to carry, although he's not
a common carrier. My pile grows, and
as soon as it's so big 1 can't jump over
it, here goes for York, says

The First Spree.
"Never was drunk but once in my
life," said a chap in my hearing, " never
mean to be again. The street seemed
to be very steep, and I lifted my legs at
every step as if I was getting up stairs.
Several cart wheels were making con
volutions in my brain, and at one time
I fancied that my head was a large car
ving and turning establishment, the
lathes of which 1 was keeping in mo
tion with my own feet. I could'nt con
ceive what was the reason that the town
had turned into such an enormous hill,
and what made it worse, was that it
I seemed all the while growing higher,
and threnteded to pitch over on me.
Stop, stop, thought I, and I'll head this
old hill yet, or at least it sham' head
me. So I turned round to go down and
get at the bottom—but hang me if the
town did not turn round with me, head
ing me all the time, and presenting a
bluff in front of me. Well sure enough
the ground soon flew up, and struck me
in the forehead, and as soon as the stars
cleared away I commenced climbing
with my hands and knees. The next
thing I saw was a big brick house com
ing full split around the corner, and I
believe it run right over me, for I don't
remember any more!"

Da. GREENN-1 take great pleasure in inform
ing you of the effects of the medicine called Ox
ygenated Bitters you had the kindness to send
me. For some twenty years I had suffered se
verely from humored Asthma. I woe compelled
to sit up one third of the night, without going to
bed at all; and the rest of the time my sleep was
interrupted by violent fits of coughing and great
difficulty of breathing. In all my attendance
upon our courts I never went to bed in Northamp
ton in twenty years but twice, and then was com
pelled to get up. Now I lie in bed without diffi
citify, and sleep soundly. I took your medicine
1 according to directions. The violent symptoms
immediately abated, and perseverancein the use
of the remedy has removed all its troublesome
consequences. The value of such a remedy is
incalculable, and I hope its virtues may be wide
iy diffused and its benifieent agency extensively
employed.

would say, that I have been afflicted with Dyspep
sia about six years, and have tried many known
remedies, but obtained no relief, until a friend
recommended the Oxygenated Bitters. • " • •
I was finally induced to procure two bottles of
you, and I had not taken half s bottle before I
felt its effects upon my system , anti after the use
of the second bottle, I found mysia in a state of
health as unexpected as it was gratifying. To
the afflicted I have no hesitation in recommend
ing the Bitters, as superior to any medicine I
have ever heard of for the cure of Dyspepsia.

egeiaific Kai Ilig,
The only known .Medicine that at the same
rime purges, purifies and strengthens
the system. _ ,
norr,July - 7, 18411.
1 R. LE ROY'S Pilleare a new medicine whidi
1„/ has just appeared, and isfast taking the planes
of all others of the same clans. These pills are
composed of many ingredients, hut the two princi
pal ones are Sarsaparilla and Wild C herry, so uni
ted that they act together; the one, through it
admixture with other substances, purif log and
purging, while the other is strengthening the ay a
tom. Thus those pills ore at the some time tonic
and opening; a desideratum long and eagerly
sought for by medical men, but never before dlr.
covered. In other word. they do the work of two
medicines, and do it much better than any two we
know of; for they remove nothing from the system
but the impurities; so that while they purge they
strength.; and hence they cause no debilitation,
and are followed by no reaction. Dr. Le Roy's
pills haves wonderfulinfluence on the blood; they
not only purify without weakening it. but they re
move all noxious particles from the chyle befoteit
is converted into fluid, and thus make impure
blood an utter impoesibility. Ac there to no di bil
itation,so there in no nausea or sickness attending
the operations of this most excellent of medicines
which never strains or tortures the digealive fun, •
tions,buteauses them to work in n perfectly :mut
at manner; and hence persons taking them do not
become pale and emaciated, but the contrary ; for
while it is the property of the Sarsaparilla, unit, 11
as iris with other ingredients, to remove all that is
foreign and impure, it is equally the property f
the Wild Cherry to retain all that is natural a I.tl
sound; and hence a robust state of health iv the
certain result of their united operations.
