    - Late From California. , 1 :
Great Pxcitetnent—Seven Miles of Golden
Sea-Beach.
The Legislature assersblhd On, the 6th
of December, and immediately organized,.
and appointed its officers. The message of
Gov. Burnett was transmitted the succeed
ing day. "A k , few days subsequent to the
meeting of the Legislature, Governor Bur
nett tendered -to that body his resignation,
and Lieut i7ov. McDougal was inaugurated
as Governor the sub Sequent day. On an
election for President ,of the Senate, in
( d a ce of the Lieut. Governor, Hon. D., C.
Broderick, of San Francisco, was chosen
0 the first ballot. 'A day for the assem
bling of the joint convention for the choice
of a Senator has not been named, but the
rote will probably be taken about the -mid
dle of February.
Business throughout the cities of Cali
fornia, is extremely dull. Goods have been
sold at uncommonly low rates, in some
instances lower than the first cost in New
York. The want of rain in the mountains,
has been a serious drawback upon
,the
labors of the miners. Still, considerable
amounts of dust are daily purchased by
the bankers, though not so much as would
have been thrown into market but for the
dryness of the season.
Gold .Blu f f'—The discovery and Excite
- ment—lmmense • Reports. •
All California is excited with the rumor
of a new discovery, far surpassing anything
yet heard of. The Alta California has
•
the - following account -
It is well known that the' steamer Ches
apeake,' with about thirty adventurers, lea
tO:s port on the 21st ult., for the Klamath,
and in yesterdays paper we gave•some 'ac
count of her progress. Scarcely was 'our
paper issued when the Chesapeake came
:o:o port, bringing back five or six of the
•prospectors," General John Wilson and
John A. Collins, Esq., among the number.
k meeting of the stockholders was called
to heir the result of the expedition, which
meeting we attended ; and if we can bring
our ideas down to anything like reason, af
ter hearing these wonderful details, we will
let the public into the secret. •
Twenty-seven miles beyond the Trinity-,
there is a beach several miles in extent.and
bounded -by a high bluff. The sands-of
this beach are mixed with gold to an extent
almost be`•ond belief. The sand is of two
kinds—a fine black sand and agrey sand.
The grey sand can be separated very
easily from the black sand, and this seems
:o be a desirable object. The gold is
mixed with_the black sand in pre - portion of
from ten cents to ten dollars the pound.
At times when the - surf is high, the gold is
pot easily discovered, but in the spring of
the year, after a succession of calms, the
entire beach is covered with 'night and
yellow gold. Mr. Collins, the Secretary
of the Pacific Mining Company measured a
patch of gold and sand, and estimates it
will yield to each member of the Company
the snug little sum of s43,ooo,ooo—anc
this estimate is formed upon a 'calculation
that the.sand holds out to be one-tenth as
rich as observation warrants them in sup
posing.
The Pacific ,Aning Company - found
some nineteen men at these diggings.' The
men had no disposition to dig, for the gold
was already for them whenever they felt
disposed to take it. Beside, sdch is thO
character of the roads that they could
take away more than 75 or 100 pounds
toece—an amount too trifling . for their.
consideration. They had erected a corn!
:brtable log cabin and designed _watching
:his claim until Spring, and then take a
ship load, of the gold and travel to some
country where the metal was not so abpn
jant. Mr. Collins saw a man who had ac
cumulated fifty thousand pounds, or fifty
Ihousand tuns,•he did not recollect which—
ci the richest kind of blacks-sand. .
Gen. Wilson says that thousands of men
cannot exhaust this gold in thOusands of
years, and he gives all who doubt his. state
ments the liberty of going•and ascertaining
these facts for themselves. • •
The company will send uploo additional
laborers as speedily as they can be embark
ed. They also design purchasing a steamer
'and running her up to the Gold Bluffs.,
Sixty men are now at the scene of opera
:tons. We wait with anxiety urther re
torts. Numerous specimens ofthe sand.
and gold were exhibited to the stockholders
a: the meeting last evening.
The Pacific News says, in relation to
ais discovery :
That on the line of coast frbm 25 miles
north of Trinidad to 8 miles South of the
Klamath River, - there is a very rich deposit
tf gold in - scales intermixed with black
sand, is beyond dispute. The gold heaving
range of the interior here strikes the ocean,
and runnin g down to a line of bluffs froM
100 to 600 feet high, more or less precipi
tous skirts the coast for nearly':, ten Miles.
These are the celebrated Gold Bluffs. Old
Father Neptune here carries on a gold
washing operation on his own,aecount, pre
cisely on the principle of the miner's gold
washing but on a colossal scale. As the
waves ebtrand flow they wash out the Blulf,
carrying back into the sea, all 'the-lighter
sand, gravel , &c., and leaving: behind on
the beach the heavy black sand,icontaining
the gold.-
Occasionally, after a .storm ,' t l the 131,14"
. sand is buried under a sort of top dressing
of grey sand thrown up by the sea : on re
storing which,,to a slight' depth, the black,
gold bearing sand is thrown as beam
The very richest portion of thiS &Posit
s confined to a strip of coast nearly two
miles long although for about sail, milis
more, the sand is till more or less 'abojtnfl
jag in g01d... We have been shown;: one
sample, whic we 'are assured has yielded
upon analysis at the rate of six, dollars to
the pound ; which we intsume ,
of course,
to be a very favorable specitben. The
more, sanguine- members. :of the Pacific
Mining Company are confident that the
poorest sand will .yield from 85 cents to
81,25 a pound. For all which estimates
we wish to he, in no way responsible, al
though the Company is giving the best evi
dence of its faith in them by its expendi
tures •in 'the enterprize—the purchase of
the steamer Chesapeake, &c.
That the'gold exists all along the coast
at the foot of the Bluffs, and in great abun
dance, seems to be indisputable.
The San Francisco Herald says : That
Very large quantities of the precious metal
are to be found on " Gold Bluff" can, we
think, scarcely be doubted—but from the
fact that no landing for passengers or goods
can be obtained within . 27 miles of the
Scene of operations, the immediate road
being of the most rugged and impassible
nature, very serious doubts arise as to
whether it will be at present an available
discovery.
Washington National Monument.
Another Block of Marble.
The Board of Managers for the Wash
ington National Monument, have , signified
to E. C. Delavan, of New York, their wil
lingness to receiye from him a block of
Marble with the Temperance . Declaration,
already signed by Eight Presidents of the
United States, and "to assign to it, in the
great National Edifice a becoming and
apfropriate position." It will be placed in
the structure, so as to enable all succeeding
Presidents to add their signatures should
they desire to do so. The declaration was
signed by Presidents Madison,_Jackson and
Adams, on its being presented to them by
Mr. Delavan. Succeeding Presidents have
added their signature to it as _they have
come into office, with the exception of Presi
dent Harrison, who died before an opportu
nity was offered to present it to him.
The Declaration as 'it now stands, is as
follows : It was_ prepared before the total
abstinence pledge Was adopted.
" Being satisfied, from observation and
experience, us well as from medical testi
mony, that Ardent Spirits'as a drink is not
only needless, but hurtful, and, that the en
tire disuse of it, would tend to promote the
health, the virtue, and the happiness of the
community,- we hereby express our convic
tion that, should the citizens of the United
States, and especially the Young Men, dis
continue entirely the use of it .they would
not only promote their personal benefits,
but the good of our country_and the world.

Uncertain Politicians.
We admire an open foe—not a•covert and
insidious enemy, not an assassin who car
ries concealed weapons to strike in the dark.
Compared to the lattter, the bold brigand is
a gentleman. There - is a class of timid,
time-serving politicians, who sometimes,
more by accident than intention, take strong
ground in support of the cardinal doctrines
of a, party. But unsteady, uncertain in
their movements, seeking only the current
that may bear them to harbor, their course
is full of shilling and timidity. When once
committed, alarmed at their own position,
they shrink back , with fear and trembling,
as the barking but cowardly dog to his ken
nel.. The truth is, party and patriotism
with them, is all a matter of plain calcula
tion ; they fight for themselves, and when
their fortunes are secured, their country is
safe. They are pugnacious, quarrelsome
and cavilling; willing to fire any mine, so
that they, like the incendiary, may gather
spoils amid the general destruction. Such
men never can col - nmand influence, or be
credited by the people with an honest ex
pression of opinion. When . they attempt
any important - political enterprise, they are
wayVvard and inconstant, challenging the
contempt of their opponents, and wanting
the reliance of their friends. 011 C day,
they support. this man and advocate this
measure; and the next they show the white
feather or the assassin's dagger. But in the
intelligence and sterling integrity
. of the
masses, all such find an early and prema
ture grave.; and if, for a moment, there be
a resurrection, as from the dead, it is like
the spectre that soon seeks the shade again.

THE WELLSBOROUGH ADVERTISER
Reform and Biennial Sessions.
One of the greatest evils of which the
people of Pennsylvania have to complain,
is over-legislation. For years past we have
a surfeit of it, our statute books have
been crowded with uncalled for and useless
enactments. This state of things is all
wrong ; and in justice to the people .who
have to " foot the bills," ought not to exist
any longer. Our • Legislators, instead of
promptly attending to the legitimate busi
ness for which they are elected, and passing
such laws as the interests of the State and
the people really demand, consume a great
portion of the time of the session in legisla
tion of a purely private, and very often
unimportant and useless character, which
ought properly to come within the jurisdic
tion of our Courts. Six weeks of the pre
sent session have now elapsed, and among
the numerous bills already passed, there is
not one of any great public interest. The
important business of the session—the work
which the people send their representatives
here to perform—is staved off from month
to month, until it is time to adjourn, and
then it is only half done. All the legisla
tion that is necessary now—all that the
public interests-demand—could be done in
one moth ; 'and yet there, is every proba
bility ,that the session will be protracted
until April. A radical reform in this par
ticular is desirable ; and we hope that be
fore the Legislature adjourns, a fnovement
will be made in favor of Biennial sessions,
which we regard as the only remedy for the
evils now complained of. Such a move
ment would be decidedly popular with the
tax-paying masses, and its advocates would
receive the hearty thanks of the people of
the whole Commonwealth. Who, then,
will be the first to unfurl the banner of
" REFORM AND BIENNIAL SE§SIQNS" in the
Legislature ?—State Journal.
THE NEW YORK LAW OF MARRIAGE.
Judge Daily, in a recent divorce case, has
decided that, if a husband absented him
self from his wife and is gone for the space
of five years, without his wife knowing or
hearing as to where he is, she is at liberty
'to marry again. Should the husbaad, how
ever return at any time after the wife has
thus been married again, he has a right to
appal to the proper Court and demand and
receive her again as his wife ; but until
such demand and a decree .has been made
to that effect by the Court the second'mar
riage is valid, and the children, if any
un*r it, legitimate. if 'after the decree
has been made, the parties of the said se
cond marriage continue still to live together
they do so contrary to the sanction of law,
until their children, henceforth, if they have
any, will not be legitimate.

Stomach of the Os; after "directions of Baron Lei.
beg, the great Physiological Chemist, 'by J. S.
Houghton, M. D.,. No. 11, - North Eighth street,
Philadelphia.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for INDI.
GESTION, DYSPEPSIA, JAUNDICE, LIVER.
COMPLAINT, CONSTIPATION and DEBILI
TY, curing after nature's own method, by Nature's
own agent, the Gastric Inice. •
Half a teaspoonful-of this Fluid, infusedln water,
will digest or dissolve, fire, pounds of Roast Beef
in about two hours, out of the stomach. . •
DIGESTION.
Digestion is chiefly performed in the stomach
by the net of a fluid which freely exudes "from the
inn coat of that organ, when in.iatate of health
called the Gastric Juice. The Fluid is the great j
solvent of the food, the purifying, preserving, and-)
stimulating agent of the stomach and intestines.;
Without it there will be no digestion=no converi
sion of food and blood, and no nutrition of the,;
body ; but rather a foul, torpid, painful, and -de
structive condition of the whole digestive appara.l
tus. .A weak, half dead, or injured stomach pro 4
duces no good Gastric Juice; and hence the disease t l
distress and debility which ensue. -
PEPSIN AND RENNET. • 3
Pepsin is the chief - clement, or great digesting
principle of the Gastric Juke. It is found in gTeat,
abundance in the solid parts of the human stoma*
altar death, and sometimes causes' the stomach tal
digest itself or eat itself up. It is also found itg
the stomach of animals, as the ox, calf, &c. It
the material used by farmers in rbaking cheese,i
called Rennet, the effect has long been the speciati
wonder of the Dairy. The curdling of milk .
the first process of digestion. Rennet possesseii
astonishing power. The stomach of a calf Willi
curdle nearly one thousand times its own weight
of milk. Baron Leibeg states that, "One part o
Pepsin dissolved in sixty thousan&parts of witer4
will digest meat and other food." Diseased stomachsii
produce no good Gastric Juice, Rennet or Pepsin 4
To show that this want may be perfectly supplied;
we quote the following

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE! S
Baron Leibeg, in his celebrated work on Animal!
Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Digestive Flitidl
may readily be prepared from the mncuos men:W
brane of the stomach of tho Calf, in which variotuti
articles of food, as meat and eggs, will be sciftenedi
changed and digested, just in the same manner as
they would be in the human stomach."
Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise on "Food an 4
Diet," published by Wilson & Co., New York
page 25, states the same great fact, and describe 4
the method of preparation.' There are few highc#
authorities that Dr. Pereira.
Dr. John W. Draper,
Professor of Chemistry i 4
the Medical College-.of . the University of NO
York, in his " Text Book of Chemistry," pagii
386, says, " it has been a question whether artis..
cial digestion could be performed—but it is nor
universally admitted that it may be."
Professor Dunglison, of Philadelphia, in brp
great work on Human Physiology, ilevotes mete
than fifty pages to an examination of this subje4t,
His experiments with Dr. Beaumont on the Gastric
Juice ; obtained from the living human stomaeli
and from Animals are well known. "In all cased,"
he says, " digestion occurred 'as perfectly in the
artificial as in the natural digestions."
AS A DYSPEPSIA CURER.
Dr. Houghton's preparation of Pepsin has pro
duced the most marvellous effects, curing cases; of
Debility, Nervous Decline, and Dyspeptic Co4si-'
sumption, supposed to be on the very verge of the
grave. It is impossible to give the details of mike
in the limits of this advertisement—but afitheriti.
eated certificaies have been given of more than
200 REMARKABLE CURES t
In Philadelphia, New York, and Boston aldne.
These were nearly all desperate cases, and the
cures were not only rapid and wonderful, but per.

It is a great Nervous Antidote, and from the ,
astonishingly small quantity necessary, to . prociiro
healthy digestion, is believed to act Upon. .1,;
