The pearl fisheries of Sonora hold out great inducements to those who can tish deeper titan the native divers, as they are unable to raise the pearl with profit from a greater depth than eight or ten fathoms; besides, they are deterred from their labors eight months in the year by the cold. The bay of Mulogé, covering 300 to 400 suuere miles, with five to twenty-five fathums waver, has been fished pretty bare as deep as ten fathoms, but al! below this is almost one entire bed of pear! oyster, scarcely die- turbed by the hand of man. At Ia Paz, and numerous other bays from Cape St. Lucas to ‘the Colorado, are sim!- Jar beds. . ‘With diving bells, in the best submarine armor, Ame- ricans would fish succegefully at all seasons, in the richest beds and beyond the depth of the naked Indians. The shells are sought after at $15 a ton, which generally covers expenses of the soason, whilst the pearis sell from a few dollars the ounce up to $5,000 for the celebrated “ Orino- co,” taken at La Paz, aud sold io the Emperor of France e oystersof Sonora, as large and dellelous as t} of the East, are found at the mouths of the rivers 7adul, Mayo and Fuerte, in the greatest abundance, Ww! a is Not one peron on the Gulf of California Mien ee stands or is prepared with materials fo) 3 Joerative trade, which could eagily b= aint very exten- sive, to our ports Oh thy cavntu.

Fuel is gathered by the mule load of eighty little sticks at thirty- feven anda half to seventy-five cents per load; consider- able is brovgbt from the river Yaqui, but is invariably sola by the coya of eighty sticks. Small timber for posts and joists is brought from San Blas, but all lumber comes from California, and seils at $60 per 1,000 There isno stone suitable for building sbort of Lower California. Brick of a very inferior quality, is made bere and burned with the fuel of little scrubs gathered on the bill sides, which costs twothirse of the whole expense. Adobes of 1,600 cuble inches constitute the princi material for all the boures in Sonora. Hermosillo is built of adobes, yet she basa whole mountain of the finest, whitest and hardest Mmestone at ker very doors. They say it is too bard, be sides they are without tools to quary or masons to cut the stone, nor money to fd for it either, Large sea furtle and delicious fish, from the small fry up to large black cod, weighing h as fi'ty pounds, are readily taken im great quantities during the cool sea- gon. ‘The Indians spear enovgh cod to supply the limited demande of Guaymas at three to five cents per pound, and oyster at $3 50 per thousand. Many places along the st sharks are taken for their oilin abundance. The dg are covered with seals, but this branch of buei- nese is in its infancy. Cu men Island is famous for its salt, which is quarried in buge blocks and delivered to the shipping at $5 per ton for San Frencieco, where it is highly prized for curing meat, and refined for table salt. Soda of the finest kind is found by the ship load near Muloge acd Lobes, as well as maby other places on the Gulf. Golondriva is a plant posseeging the rare virtue of an instantaneous, certain and effectual remedy for the poison of the mest venomous reptiles. Every living thing in So nora when poisoned rush tor this plant which gives euch beppy results, Captain Porter, of the St. Mary’s, has procured several arrobas of the plant for the Patent Citee. The rich valleys of [tbe rivers Yaqui, Mazo and Fuerte contain over 400,000 acres of aliuvial eoil, unsurpassed in fertility by the valley of the Nile, producing annually two crops of corn and one of wheat, beans, peas or oiker crop, and are weil adapted to the culture of evgar, cotton, tobacco and most other tropical pianta, which grow luxuriantly in this gerial soil, whilst the au- riferour mountains on their borders reach down to the sea.” Some of the rich placers near the lower Paepios, on the river Yaqui, yielding coarge gold from two to six ounces per day, bave been revealed to Americans by the Inciant, who have faith in us butgione in the Mexicans, ené whom they will not permit to prospect.

San Miguel, on Sonora river, has on the north iromense ridges of almeet inaccesible mountains, full of gold, silver end copper.

Such ores only have been veed which could be reduced by emelting. e re. fuse, if properly reduced, would yield 25 to 50 marks per ton, Mire of ‘‘Cobriza,”’ eight Ieagnos north, was nban- doned when vielding pure silver. Its mouth is choked up by a bvge rock. Three Jeagues southwest is the “San Antonio,” which produced 14 mark per ton. “Do- Jorer,”’ one league gouth, produces silver in sare propor. tion, With a mixture of gold. These minee are seventy leagues northeast of Guaymas, and were formeriy abundantly snd cheaply supplied with provisions, wood, water, horees, mules, &c. Opogura, northwest of this are the celebrated mines of Jnsn Bantieta. The mineral is a mountain 3,000 by 1,500 yards, CC fect high. Ite principal minee—‘‘Santa Ana’ apd “Rosario,” have precuced immense wealth; vow full of water, fifty or sixty varae deep. In this bill are twelve other distinct veins, which were worked for small threads of very fine silver; but the azoques or common ores, which yield very abund- ant, yield from twenty four to ninety-six ornces of silver for three Buncyed pounds ore. The orce by smelting e yielded balfeilver. When tho water drove them out of Sante Apa,” they were working a vein of pure silver, one third vara broad. Theee twelve veins vary from one to twelve yards wide atthe surface.

Escalante and two others were the last who worked it, and that by clearing away the rubbish till they could extract a pillar which yielded $70,0¢0, then they abandoned it, ot immediately finding the principal ye.

The mine of Carmen produced a mass of eolid silver weighing 425 pounds. The ores of Pastrana were sorich the the vein was cbiselled out. Buen Suaso was discovered by an Indian, who swam across the Fuerte after a flood, and saw the rich crest or lode laid bare, which was pure silver. The whole town of Batopilas went to see it. The Indian extracted considerable wealth from it, but wes obliged to abandon the mine at three vs. depth on account of tbe water. In Sonora almost every mountain and bill coptains gold or ajlver, even in the plains, for in this State it actually crops out. News from Hayti. DECREF OF PRESIDENT GEFPRARD.
