The Treasurea of California--No
Fiction.
The Notional httettigenc, publishes the an
nexed letter front an officer on board the United
States ship Ohio, in the Bay of San Francisco,
to an officer of the Government in Washington:
1 have just returned from an explore-
tin of the gold region, and avail my
self of the opportunity afforded by Mr.
%%Tethered to send you a few specimens
of gold dust, commonly found in various
parts of the placer. The Lexington be
ing
on the eve of sailing, and every nio
meat of my time being occupied in pre
paring despatches to be sent by her, I
cannot write you fully at present, but
will do myself the honor to foward you
by the overland rout a detailed account
and description of the long sought and
at last discovered "El Dorado." You
may be prepared to believe a great deal
when I assure you 1 have seen no writ
ten or published account which has not
been verified by ocular proof.
1 hazard nothing in saying that more
than $5,000,000, at $l6 the ounce, have
been already obtained from the crevices
of the rocks, picked tip in the sands of
dry creek, or washed out of tl►e diggings
of gullies, and this with the rudest of
implements--a pick, spade, often only
a jack knife and a wooden bowl. A
large amount has been sent away, and
the Lexington will take upward of $3OO,
000 in dust, most of which has been
purchased at from $8 to $l2 the ounce.
As you may suppose, in such a state of
things everybody seems to be run mad,
and other employments and occupations
sire abandoned—farm, workshop, office,
are all left, and every one is either go
ing, gone or returning from the mines.
The price of labor and provisions has
risen in proportion to the scarcity pro
duced by the neglect of agriculture, the
increased consumption and the abundant
means of paying in gold for the indul
gence of every appetite.
I only have time to suggest the spee
dy action of Congress to this effect.
Let there be no sale, appropriation, lease
or grant of the gold lands, no rent or
tax on the digging. Let the whole lie
open and free to every one, but establish
as soon as possible an assaying office at
this place, where all gold dust to be ex
ported from California shall be cast into
bars or ingot, and stamped with the
true weight and value, upon payment
of the same rates as are now charged for
coining at the United States Mints, and
with the farther privilege of having
these bars or ingots coined free of charge
on delivery in the United States. This
operation will save the Government the
expense of a host of collectors and oth
er officers; indeed, I might say, a mighty
"army of ocieupation," if it were even
possible to keep such an army true to
their colors. , The bars would be prefer
red in trade and commerce, and would
serve better than coin in trade with oth
er countries, particularly China, the
East Indies, as well as many parts of
South America, if not in Europe,&c.
Aunt Betsy tells a story of a man who
was "meaner than parsley." "Why,"
says she "whenever he would get hold
of a half dollar, he would give it such a
squeeze, that the poor eagle would
squeal outright, almost."
CIiOLERA.-The latest official intelligence
shows eleven cases at Memphis and four death,
three at Maybville, Ky., recovering.
Industry
The simple necesities of life, the con
stant
calls to supply the food and rai
ment essential to ourselves and those
dependant upon us, should seem suffi
cient incentives to industry. And so they
are with most men.—But such necessit
ies, while acting ns a constant stimulus
to compel men to action, do not almost
always secure the best direction or the
most profitable arrangement of effort.
Industry to be successful, must be well
directed and systematic. We have seen
many persons who labored incessantly
from morning till night, year after year,
without making any real progress.
Such persons are always busy, always
in the greatest haste, pressed continual
ly by an accumulated weight of engage
ments, from which, with all persever
ance they can never escape. The se
cret of it all is, they do not systematize.
Hence they are continually behind hand;
worried and driven to vexation by their
business, instead of driving their busi
ness calmly and pleasantly before them.
Order is Heaven's first law; and with
out this the greatest energy and the
most untiring industry may toil up hill
through life without ever reaching the
top.
The greatest blessing we can confer
upon our friends would be a habit of sys
tematic industry. This is not only to
attempt to do everything which needs to
be done; but to have a set time in which
to do each labor, and to do it in that time.
Those whose success in life has been
most remarkable, especially if we take
into account the amount of the work—
"real hard work," which they have ac
complished, have been persons who,
with little pretentions to great ability to
accomplish a vast amount of business,
went seriously and soberly to work every
day, doing everything decently and in
order—men whose modesty was equaled
only by their systematic industry, who
red4emed time by having some work to
do every hour, and by doing it in that
hour. True industry attempts not to do
more than can be done well; undertakes
nothing which cannot be done, and
leaves nothing unfinished when once un
dertaken.—Sir Astley Cooper, the most
eminent surgeon of his time in England,
being asked by a friend the secret of his
great success in the most difficult opera
tions of his art, replied, that before un
dertaking any difficult operation he in
quired if it were possible. If it were
not possible, he declined it; and if it
were, he undertook, perseveres and suc
ceeded in it. We remember to have as
ked a youhg man, who rose to eminent
usefulness in spite of the greatest dis
couragements, what was the secret of
his success. He answered that there
was nothing secret about it; but that ev
ery morning before rising from bed, he
called to mind the work which belonged
to him to do that day; and before going
to sleep at night he always asked him
self if he had accomplished that day's
work.—Frankford (Pa.) Journal.
CURE FOR CHOLERA.-Dr. John W.
Moore states, in a Mobile paper, that he
cured one hundred or more extreme cases
of the cholera, not loosing one, by the use
of tobacco. He administered it in the
form of an enarna, of the strength of one
drachm to the pint. He first tried it up
on a negro, whose pulse was gone; his
tongue was cold, and his musics so riged
that he rested only on his head and
heel's. In five minutes he was mimed,
and the cure perfected by drinking a de
coction of senna. In his own case, Dr.
Moore took into his stomach a spoonful
of the tobacco decoction, with perfect
relief from cramp and diarrhoea. He
has no doubt but that cholera may be
as easily managed as the fevers of our
country.
CASE Of CONSPIRACY•—The Supreme
Court, sitting at .Nisi Prius, at Philadel
phia, Judge BURNSIDE on the Bench,
was engaged nearly or quite fire weeks
in the trial of a cause in whichMonuAN
lliiierimArr was plaintiff; and a number of
his relations, Including a sister and
brothers-in-law,and some physicians and
managers of the Insane Asylum at
Frank ford--all membersof the Society of
Friends—were defendants. The charge
was a conspiracy to procure the Plain-
tiff to be declared a lunatic—to take his
property out of his hands, and con•
fine him in a mad-house—all of which
was effected under the forms, and pur•
suant to process of law. Morgan was'
confined in the Asylum several months;
but his situation at length becoming
known to an uncle, he was released,—
the inquisition of lunacy set aside by the
Court, and this suit was brought for the
recovery of damages. The testimony
on both sides was very voluminous, and
the case was conducted and argued by
several of the best members of the Phil
adelphipar. ft was committed to the
jury un er the charge of the Court on
Monday of last week, and on Saturday
last, after five days' deliberation, they
returned a verdict of *llO,OOO again 4 st
1 seven of the defendants.

LINES,
Addressed to my friends in .Marklesliurg,
Penn township, Huntingdon county, Pa.
Adieu, dear friends, I shall not stay,
I leave to dwell no more with you,
To other scenes I haste away,
But stop awhile, to bid adieu.
Adieu, ye fair, with pleasure oft,
We happily spent each idle hour,
To interchange in whispers soft,
The thoughts of love and test their power
Your memory, shall ever live,
Within my breast, where first it rose,
And as a pledge, this vow I give,
I'll think of you till life shall close.
Adieu, dear comrades, from your list,
I'll gently take my name aww•ay;
Our sports must cease, though I be missed,
I cannot with you longer stay.
'Tis time, our parting gives me pain,
And oft I drop the silent tear ;
But duty calls, I cannot remain,
My days have ended with you here
Adieu, my older revered friends—
My benefactors, and my guides;
The kind advice, affection lends,
Forever in my heart abides.
Adieu, these mountains, plains and streams,
Where in romantic mood I'd stray;
For stranger sights and newer scenes
I with you part, and turn away.
Long as I live, I'll think of all,
With an unceasing, ardent prayer—
That ill nor harm shall e'er befall,
Commending each to Heaven's care
Accept from me•the parting hand,
I turn away with beating heart,
My friends, my foes, my native land,
Adieu, to all—adieu, we part.

DIED.
On the 9th inst., at the residence of his father
in Jackson township, Mr. JOIINATHAN S.
EVANS, in the 22d year of his age.
The deceased was a member of the Jackson
Division No. 298 of the Sons of Temperance,
the members of which paid their last tribute of
respect to his remains by seeing them respecta
bly interred at the Lutheran burying ground, on
the 11th instant. After which they appointed
the undersigned to draft resolutions expressive
of their sympathy for their departed brother,
and for his kind and affectionate relations. The
committee reported the following, which were
unanimously adopted :
Resolved, That the death of our much esteem
ed brother, Jonathan S. Evans, has filled us
with the most profound sorrow ; and while we
most deeply lament Nis loss, his remembrance
will ever be most kindly cherished by us, his
brethren, for that kind and affectionate disposi
tion which has ever characterized his intercourse
with us.
Resolved, That in this most painful dispensa
tion of Providence, we respectfully tender our
sympathy and condolence fo his parents and
friends who have thus been called to mourn his
early departure to a world of spirits. Albeit
it has pleased an all-wise Providence to deprive
his parents of a kind and affectionate son, and
the members of his family of the enjoyment of
his pleasing and social virtues; and whilst we,
his brethren, mourn with them, we can take
consolation in the assurance that our loss is his
eternal gain, and that he is now a member of
that Grand Division beyond the sky.
Resolved, That the usual badge of mourning,
in memory of our much esteemed brother, be
worn for the space of two months.
- - .
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the family of our deceased brother,
anti be published in the Huntingdon Globe and
