Our New Territory, Caironsia, June 1, 1848, We stilllive and heve our being in this “Farest West,” with only one serious apprehension, that we are in danger of having more gold than food, for he that can wield » spade, and shake a dish, can fill his pockets,asu gusto. Oh! this California climate cer- tainly influences dispositions. A Californian never dreams of work, Some on horseback have to exert themselves in taming wild horses and cattle, and in he after management of them, but ‘“valga me dois,” hose who obtained a stay in this world by headwork, when in office, or obtained credit on the hopes ofone, a Californian will pay bis debts, but takes his own ime in doing this, or any other good thing,) had to get up & pronunciamento, occasionally, as funds or credit ran low; the natives having, by the change of flags, been brought toa stand still, must get ahead as they best can by the ownership of a few leagues of Jand and a few thousand head of cattle. ‘Tis now the Yankee turn, beginning in October, 1846, under Lieut. Washington Bartlett, alcalde of the town of Yerba Buena. Hundreds of our cbuntrymen. obtained in that town, at $15 each, house lots of 50 varas square, (136 English feet.) This they continued under Judge Bryant and Judge Hyde, one an editor, the other a lawyer of your city. Houses costing $100 to $1,000, sprung up like the story of Aladdin’s times. Fifty varas lots, without any improvements, sold from 100 ‘to 1,000 exicun doliars, Merchante, lawyers, blacksmiths, carpenters, etc., became owners of snu little houses. Many t home for their families ; all was doing well. Mechanics obtained four to eight dol- lars per day; even some of the volunteers came in for a large share by the well-timed and prudent permis- sion of their cfficers, while they performed their duty to government. Lawyers, $50a fee ; the merchant made 100 per cent; clerks and schoolmasters, 500 to $1,000 per annum.’ Every one appeared happy and contented, making money without trouble, like a Cali- fornian, imagining Providence had taken them under special protection. Whenall this was in the full blast of successful operation, and no probability of its being brought to # close—presto! some one proclaim. ed that there was, on the branches of the Sacramento, “gold forthe gathering.” This cry, I believe, began from the Mormons; immediately the most thought- less, the most sanguine, took horse or launch for the rivers of wealth. In less than one month they return- ed to Yerba Buena, now Sar Francisco with a few hundred dollars of gold dust, worth, in the States, $17 per ounce. The whole mass of foreign population struck, not for higher wages, but tor none at all— spades and shovels rose from $2 to $10; tin pans and cups, to unheard of prices; a few considerate turners and blacksmiths, remained to make spades and picks, nd turn wooden dishes to wash out the sand. These few are now making $20 to $40 per day ; cooks and Doatmen demand $30 per month. The result, in a few words, is that, more than half I think three-fonrths of the houses, in some towns, are vacated. A passage in the launch rose from nothing to $4, to $8 to $16. Every one brought more astonishing news of this El Dorado of rivers whose bottoms were gold, only re- quiring to step in, scoop up a handful of black sand, move the hand a few minutes in the water, and there remained the pure thing itself. Rivers, whose banks glittered with the fine black sand, impregnated with quantities of gold that glistened still more until the “eyes ached.’’ Pans and shovels sold for $30 on the spot; $20 day was demanded by one to spend a day to go to the nearest rancho for a quarter of meat, or $20 a day to cook for a mess of ten men, $2 a man. This, they say, was submitted to for a few days. ‘Whether these golden stories of rivers of gold were true or false, could not immediately be known. This much was secn. No one from the gold regions had any time to stop to talk er spin street yarns! Yat with, more tools, tes, boffee, flour and crackers, paid for in gold dust itself at $14 per ounce, they were off again. There was no waiting for what the Germans call a stand point. No hesitation— no more misbelief—by the most skeptical ; all must go; and, truly, in some towns, all have gone. Near two hundred houses in the town of San Francisco are closed by the owners. ; Benicia, a small town of a year’s growth, situated forty miles from the entrance of San Francisco Bay, had but two men left who were earning $308 day by the ferry. Monterey is now showing strong symptoms of the gold fever, its inhabitants, in general, thinking they are sufficiently rich, can afford for a few days longer to let well enough alone; but onward goes this fever, raging strongly in the brains of all, depopu lating towns, carrying off men, women, and children. ‘A six-year old chiid can gather $2 or $38 day; s man $10 to $30 ; old and young ladies in preportion, accord- ing to how they admire to stand two feet deep in the ‘water, or can dig with shovels, roll round a wooden dish or basket. Should these reports continue the year out, and prove to be true, and I continue -® monthly report, the mighty Herald for three nations, paying its owner (so he says, or the printer does the saying for him) $30,000 pery for want of handy, like the news- apers of California, Who would print Heralds at $3 or $4a day, when, in the Far West he could gather a cup of gold a day? I had better stop as 1 am, or your men will quit as it is, The Indian wars are depopulating the Oregon. Peace will soon disband the voluntcers om the Pacific. ‘The astonishing tales from this country, of rivers with bottoms and banks of gold—of quicksilver—pent up for thousands of years in | aie ct of mountains—only waiting the rush to the Pacific of that ever-restless, never-contented Yankee race, to loose it from its con- finement—to make gold and mercury as plenty as all can desire. This news, spreading over the Atlantic States, these three continuing ‘causes, will soon fill California from all parts of our country. No more. You will not believe a quarter of what I have told you, and your readers not # half ; the writer ig bound to believe much of it—all of it. How long the banks of our rivers will proce gold dust is our affair. Those who have travelled these splendid regions say there is no end to their riches, although there must be to SU_AMIGO Y PAISANO. Isend youa few 8 to back my improbable tales of gold and quicksilver. Ponicr Statistics or Panis.—By a report pub- lished at Paris, by the Prefect of Police, it appeat that there are in Paris 31,480 workmen living in furnished apartments. Of these, 21,538 are em- ployed in various ways. The number of unem- ployed workmen is 9,887. In the week ending August 8th, 4394 strangers arrived in Paris. In the week after, 5974 arrived; and in the next week, 7944, showing a regular increase of arrivals.

P.M. During the; ast week there bas been some importan changes in the views of speculators, and a salutary check has been given to an inflation of prices, parti- cularly for breadstuffs, ‘The arrival of the steamship Europa, on Thursday, with seven daye later intelligence gave rpeculators in breadstuffs a quietus, aed prices at once depreciated. This change was hailed with mnch jy by holders of cotton, and, in fact, by all engaged in the legitimate operations of trade. Any great specu- lative movement in breadstuffs is now looked upon with much alarm. A few years since, any extensiv® demand for our agricultural products, and a very great inflation in prices, were considered the most favorable events that could possibly transpire, and short harvests in Great Britain were looked upon as god-sends. Now, @ different view is taken of the matter, and the uni- versal opinion among busine: men is, that | low prices for food in England, is.as important | and as desirable to the people of this country as to the people of Great Britain. In fact, we are as much benefited by the cheapness of breadstuifs in England as the people of that country themselves and the result of the recent deficient harvest in E) rope, has satisfied nearly every one of the importance and advantage to us of full crops of grain, and low | prices for every article of food thoughout Europe. ‘There is, however, one thing connected with deficient harvests in Europe, which should be taken into con- sideration, and that is the benefits derived by a portion of our population from high prices of breadstuffs. The great exporting staple of this country is eotton, and upon the value of that depends in a great measure our commercial prosperity. Whatever tends to pre- serve prices for this article above remunerating profits, of course advances the interest of the planter, and gives employment to an immense number of people, in the production of the raw material, and manufacture of it into various fabrics. Our foreign export trade is so much regulated by the state of the markets, and prices for this staple, that the balance in our favor or against us depends entirely upon them. While the commereial classes are striving to sustain the value o this article, they are directly advancing the interes of the planter. To maintain prices abroad, it is nece: sary that food of every description should be cheaj the cheaper the better; and therefore it is impossible to sustain, to an equal extent, the two most important branches of our great agricultural interest. If the cotton growers command high prices for their pro- duets, the producers of breadstuffs cannot expect any extensive foreign demand, and of course no advance in prices for flour and grain; and they must be content with the home market, and such prices as large sup- plies and a large surplus permit to rule. It is unfortu- nate that these staple products conflict with each other, or that one should be so much more important than the other, as to make it for our interest to sacri- fice the lesser. It will not be many years before a revolution wily take place in these things; every year brings us nearer the desired position; and as soon as we reach it, we shal] regulate the commercial and financial affairs of the whole world. All that is,necessary, to enable us to do so, is the control of our cotton crops. All we want is that, and that we must goon have. The con- sumption of cotton in the United States, for the year ending September 1st, 1848, north and east of Vir- ginia, according to the best returns we have seen, was 581,772 bales, against 427,067 bales for the year pre- vious; showing an increase of 103,805 bales in 1848. This is the greatest increase ever rvnlized in any one year within the history of the country. It is pretty well known, that the manufacturing of cotton is carried on to a greater or less extent in every State in the Union, and that the consumption ofthe raw material in some of the Southern and Western States is by no means small. The consumption named above is confined to thirteen out of the thirty States in the Union, leaving seven- teen States unaccounted for. All the new States in | the confederacy are included in these seventeen. Without any data to base an estimate upon, other than the reports which from time to time reach us, relative to the progress of the manufacturing interest in those sections of the country, we should judge that the con} sumption of the raw material during the past year could not have been much less thanone hundred and | twenty-five thousand bales, which, added to the con- sumption of the Middle and Eastern States, makes an aggregate of 656,772 bales for the year. For the year ending Sept. let, 1888, the consumption of cotton in the United States amounted to 246,063 bales, showing an increase in ten years of 410,709 bales. If we in- crease in the same proportion, during the next ten years, we sball, long before the expiration of that pe- riod, consume such a per centum of our crop as to ena- ble us to control the movements of the. surplus very easily. The per centum increase in the consumption of cotton in this country has_been much greater than the increase in production during the past ten years and we have no doubt but that it will continue in the same ratio for the next ten years. Thereis, therefore very little doubt but that we shall soon regulate prices for this valuable staple product, and be relieved from the dependent position we now occupy. Whenwecan do 80, prices for cotton abroad will not depend upon prices for breadstuffs, or upon the internal broils and difficulties of a few petty governments on the Conti- nent ofEurope. Then deficient harvestsinany foreign country, will enable us to realize all the benefits of high prices for breadstuffs, without any of the draw- backs recently experienced. The population, wealth, capital, and credit, of this country are increasing so rapidly, and upon such a sound and solid basis, that the surpius of our agricultural products will, in a few years, be so small, compared with what it is at present, that its exportation will be a matter of trifling impor- tance, and prices current abroad of little consequence. We have heretofore depended too much upon ong great market, and whatever affected that market af- fected our most important interests. The brunt of apy commercial disaster fall upon ns indirectly, through its influence upon prices ; and 60 long as we are 80 de- pendent, so long will we be subject to the same revul- sions, We want larger markets, within our own limits, for our own products. The prosperity of our most vital interests depends too much upon the prosperity of the people of other parts of the world, and the permanency and stability of their governments. Within the past twelve months, we have suffered the loss of millions and tene of millions of dollars, in consequence of the political revolutions in Europe, without the existence of the first cause within ourselves. With every thing in a healthy condition at home, we are prostrated by the overthrow of a few corrupt and rotten goverments in the old world; and in reality are more serious suf. ferere, in ® financial and commercial point of view,than the nations most intimately connected with the revo- lutions. How long this state of things will last, is im- possible to tell; but we should do everything in ou power to prevent @ recurrence of these disasters; to do which it is only necessary for us to foster and protec! domestic industry, in every possible shape.

It ix @ measure, perhaps, of wisdom to turn out of office officials who come out pro- winently against the administration they are serving, but to turn out men who, whatever may be their pri. vate opinions, do not obtrude them upon the public, would not only be unjust, but a gross act of persecu. tion, and we feel convinced the present government will not pursue such a course ‘The two papers printed here still continue to publish daily, columns of Benton's speech against Gen Kear- ny. and “the cry is still they come,” It is incredible that Mr. Benton should have made such a tremendously lengthy speech; and we take it for granted that he merely gave the heads to the senate, and is now en- larging thereon, The public is somewhatmore concerned in this speech than they perhaps imagine, column of itcosts $15. It will be remembered that, @ few days before the close of the session, a resolution was passed to pay each of the city papers seven dollars and a halfa column for the reports of the Senate. Mr. Benton was the prime mover in getting this resolution passed, and he interprets itas an ex post facto law,and consequently publishes his speech made before the law, Was passed, at the expense of the country. We scarcely dare mention the number of columns which have already appeared in duplicate, for fear of texing ‘Yhe credulity of our readers; but we think somewhere between forty and fifty would not be far out, and God only knows how many are in embryo. Altogether, it is us pretty a piece of humbug, in a small way, as we bay eheard of for some time. The letter of the Secretary of the Treasury, in an- swer to a resolution of the House calling for an ac- count of all moneysgpaid to Generals Taylor and Cass, respectively, bas just been printed, and forms a goodly sized volume of 234 pages, The demand for it by members, excveds that of even the Patent Office re- port. What unmitigated humbug is allthis! There can be no doubt but what both Tayler and Cass took care to receive for their services all they could get; and where is the man who would not? If Cass got more than Taylor, that was his good fortune, and does not prove any dishonesty on the part of either. Members of Congress should be the last persons in the world to talk about @ man receiving pay for doing nothing. ued to the week ending this afternoon, The amount of stock of the loans of 1847-8, i foreign account during is as follows:— England.

Death Among the Volunteers—Attempted Murder —Case of Hydrophobia, §c., &c, Puitapecruia, Sept. 17, 1848. Within the last two days no less than three of the returned volunteers, residing in this city, have died. One named Michael Kelly, is to be buried this afternoon, and Jeremiah Corson will be inter- red at Monument Cemetery on Tuesday, The latter belonged to Captain Small’s company. Last evening Adam Seapole, a member of Captain Hill's company, was seized with an apoplectic fit,in the Wm. Penn Hotel, and died almost instantly.’ He will be buried to-morrow afternoon. He is anid to have a wife and and four children in New York city. George Horsey, the chief of the dog-catchors, and a Begro bully, yesterday made an attempt to kill Sarah Hardy, a colored woman, whom he formerly lived with, but who left him for ill treatment. He broke into the room she occupied, armed with a knife and pistol, but she jumped from the second story window to escape him. Her leg was broken by tho fall, but he o down and beat her as she lay upon the pavement, actu ally kicking herinthe mouth. He has been commit- ted to prison, but the alderman had hard work to get any one to swear against him, the injured woman hav- ing been taken to the Hospital. A case of the hydrophobia is now at the Pennsylva- nia Hospital, and our city physicians are making an effort to save the man’s life. If # multitude of coun- fellors can accomplish anything, his recovery is cer- tain. The man is named Corneliu: Weeks, and was bitten in the hand, five or six weeks since, near the Navy yard. Atnany, September 16, 1848, The Movements of Parties at Utica—The Probable Re- sults, ce. Fe. baThe nominations of the Utica Conventions are before you, and you have put them before the world, just as a Parisian cuisine puts a chop before a hungry oucrier Fish will run abead of his ticket, and Dix will run be- hind. Fish will run abead of the State and national tickets, because, without a peradventure, he will com- mand the whole and undivided vote of the whig party of New Yerk. He ts a pure man—of honorable princi. ples—of noble associations. He is whig of the Fill- more stamp, who has never been basely used by the ostracised clique of Albany anti-masons, who have perched, like birds of Paradise, in high places, but who are, at present, sunk below the level of men of reputa- tion. I have known Fish, in the Senate, as President of that body. I have, during my life, preferred rather to observe men than Fish in all the public, amd fa°soue tr’ tho ivate sales tions of life, and, | think, ¢: though hele a member of the whig party, that he is a just man—a good man— of fair talent, and capable of discharging the duties of the executive chair with honor to the State. Fish i blameless and benevolent man, and the whig party ardently attached tohim. These are the reason: a4 in I think he will run ahead of the entire whig tic! There is doubtless a chance for his elec- this Btate tion. Dix willrun behind his ticket, becausa, first, ha voted with Cass, in the Senate, against the Irish Relief Bill. The only question which could arise in the mind of an intelligent man, in reference to that bill, was, im my judgment, whether the general government of the Uni- ted States can, constitutionally, interpose its arm to rescue a neighboring mation from the ravagas of posti- lence and tamine—from the unjust oppreesions of a foreign power or from inhuman spoliation, ‘This is the question which would ari cause there could not eaist a doubt but that the Irish people were most wofully in need of aid and food. I have no doubt of the constitutional power of Congress to appropriate the public money for such o purpose; and there are thousands of [rish voters who will agree with my views. It is held that in case of war between two nations, it is the right of # neutral power to me- diate between the belligerents, with a view to the re- storation of peace. This is a well-settled principle of international law. If it is constitutional for the United States government to expend the public money in an attempt to mediate between two belli- gerent nations, why is it not constitutienal for it also to mediate between Ireland and famine? What is the difference between war and famine, except t famine is the greatest curse! The French govern- ment is meditating between Austria and Italy, and bas sent an army to compel Austria to accept the olive branch. The United States government may do the same thing. The truth is, Dix voted wrong The speech of Henry Clay, in the House of Representa- tives, on the Greek question, proves it. Dix voted Wrong, and ke will lose the Irish vote, and run be- hind his ticket. Secondly, The State Central Com- mittee of the free soil party addressed @ letter to Mi Dix, last May. and desired him to makes firm, and open, and positive movement in favor of the celebrated Frovico Introduced into Congress by Mr. Wilmot, of ennsylvania, The committee asked him to come up to Albany, and make a free soil speech to @ mass meet- ing; or, as the only alternative, to write strong. and elaborate, and bold letter in faver of the principle. The committee told him they wanted such a lett for publication; the free soil party was in its infune it was tottering on the threshold of day; and the question » whether it should have exist- ence, or be driven back into the realms of nonentity, The committee coaxed, be; |, and cried for ald, as bard as the Irish “tia ; but Dix was immovable. He wrote a reply to the committce, mearly as short as Cass’s letter on the river and harbor question, reply was read to the Albany mass meeting of free soilers, and recelved with a tumult of hieses and execrations, In it Mr Dix said that his duties at Washington would not admit of his depacture; it is evi t there- fore, that he considered the free soil qu yn as of very inferior moment to the Buncombe questions then pending in the Senate, He alsohad the kindness to say, with great simplicity ethat his views, ag previously avowed, upon all matte bat no particular matter—were “unchange: d unchangeable” —acon- cession worthy of & Roman, but not quite hen- sive enough for the free soil party of the United States. By this extracrdinary display of indecision, and fright, and doubt. Mr Dix Tost mapy friends; he lost tation for firmpers, becanse he did not say— eternal | am with you, barnburners,”” There ore two of the reasons why | think Mr. Dix Wil run behind histicket.
