Death of an Exlraordloary Character, Dikd—In Stockton, December 10th, 1S59, John Brown, a native of Carlescrona, In Sweden, in the The San Joaquin Republican gives the following history of John Brown, who. although of the same name us he 6t Ossawattomie, was quite lother character ;— The life of the subject of this notice has been an ;eutful one. Embarking at the age ot fifteen ; the service of his native country (Sweden), he lied for England, and was iu the harbor of Portsmouth when the English frigate Bellerophon arrived there with the Emperor Napoleon I, as a prisoner on board. He next engaged in the service of Gen. Simon Bolivar, aud was present in „fthe engagements which marked the progress of that patriot to power in South America. Juan Flacco, as he was called, arrived iu Califor- "n 182S, and has resided in the country ever since. During the war with Mexico, while Mr. Brown was enlisted in the company of Major A. H. Gillespie, at Los Angeles, the Caliiornians managed to surround the town, and threatened the entire destruction of Major G.'s force. The only possible chance lor timely relief was from Commodore Stockton, who was then lying with the Savannah frigate at Sun FraucisCo. At the request of Major Gillespie. Mr. Brown undertook to carry a dispatch to Com. Stockton. Gillespie prepared the dispatch in a bundle of thirty cigar- etlas, and placing it among other bundles of the weed, Brown succeeded in eluding ttie vigilance of the Californians (then commanded by Gen. Andres Pico), although pursued by them, and coming within an ace of being taken, he euceeded, after an unparalled ride ol four days, in delivering his message lo Com. Stockton in person ; the consequence was, the relief 0! M;ijor Gillespie and the rescue of him and his force from utter destruction. Mr. Brown was afterwards employed by Gen. lvearny to carry an express to Col. Fremont, which he accomplished by crawling through the Califor- nian camp, and obtaining a horse from an acquaintance (a Calilornian), whom he of course deceived as to his mission, lie has resided in the vicinity of this place for the last eight years. Brown was a man of strict integrity, ot asocial disposition and generous impulses, and of unwavering devotion to those whom he recognized as his friends. He has suffered much for the past six years from rheumatism, which had greatly shattered his constitution, and having some three weeks since contracted a violent cold, tliis produced inflammation of the stomach, which ended his mortal career on Saturday last. The time when Major Gillespie was thus eur- rouuded was in 1846. When he started out from Los Angeles, Juan Flacco (lean John) pretended to be a deserter from Gillespie's force, but by some imprudence his true character became known to the Mexicans, outside. He was fired upon, and his horse killed under him almost immediately, lie ran on loot twenty-seven miles, and touched the ranch of a Mexican, where, by false representations, he procured another horse, having arrived about day-break aud starting at sun-rise. Brown arrived at Santa Barbara near eleven o'clock that night, aud his horse Wftt killed by the ride. Capt. Itobbins lurnished him with fresh horses also, and he arrived late that evening at the ranch of Mr. Burton who also furnished hoiseB. The next mornir.g, alter a short rest, he started and arrived at Monterey at night. Being unable to obtain aid there for the Americans, he started the next mornir.g Tor San Francisco en an American horse owned by Mr. Bye, which was furnhmed him by Captain iiaddo\'. At Monterey, Mr. Larkin, the American Consul, AaAabsent, and Mr. Gi'cen, his clerk, gave him letters to Anje! Castro, Antonio German, tud others on U12 road, which procured him fresh horsee. It iB proper to say tht.i Juan was chased to the ranch of Capt. Bobbins by *''-•- Mexican lancers.— He bud also a loiter to Captain Charles M. Weber, who was at that time residing in San Jose, nnd known to be in tbe American interest. Mr. Weber was absent at the time of his arrival, but fortunately Thomas O. Larkin was there when he arrived, at 12 o'clock, noon. In four hours' time he again started, with horses furnished by Mr. Larkin, and at eight o'clock at night reached San Francisco, and delivered his dispatches, which produced tbe desired effect, and aid was at once dispatched lo the Americans in Los Angeles. The distance from Lob Angelee lo Monterey, about 350 miles, was mi 1 11 w A Iltnl l'iilir<|inlii l>iilii(lng. We, Herald, bad the pleasure of examining a curious work of art, in tho possession nl'our old friend Mr. D Hill, representing the Mission of£on Gabriel, near Los Angeles, during ita most flourishing period. This highly valuable landscape was executed in oil, about 18;i"), in the city of Mexico, from a drawing made on the spot, between 1880-84,09 Mr. Ferdinand Dieppe, of Berlin, who was formerly trading on this coast for Messrs. Mirment & Co., a Mexican merchant firm. The executon, (aB our friend informs us) is most faithful to nature, and accessories as existing in 1828. It represents the entire mission on a feast day in the Hpring ol the year under a cloudless sky, with a religious procession leaving the church and Hie buildings in complete order, with Californians, Indians, huts, trees, hedges and animals, and the river Bowing by; all according to the times. Old Friar Sanchez is in the foreground In his Francscan habit attended by his two Indian boys in their red dresses, spciking to a foreign trader, and a number ol Indians, male and femnle are introduced dressed in the fashion of the mission period—the women in their bnyetas of red flannel, aud the men conforming to custom and nature. The execution ot the work is exceedingly endit- able to the artist—the sketch was made with the best judgment and taste by the draughtsman, who must have been highly competent a:id au fait, wilh all his perceptive lacul ties alive. In the back gi ound Mount San Bernardino rears his snow capped summit and wooded green sides, and (be neighboring lulls are covered with a lively California May verdure of emerald, flushed with the glowing tinge of an afternoon sun. Tbe painting measures 33 by 28 inches, and is valuable not only as a work of art, but as representing a magnificent California landscape, with historical accessories now- buried forever in the grave of the past. It is the only proper painting ever made of one of the mis- BionSduring their florescence, and with its iutiiu- cic merits is worthy of careful preservation. Tbe church buildings. Indians, etc., being clearly and faithfully delineated,' and in excellent proportions on tbe canvas, must cause it lo be held in esteem by the old Californian or the man of taste. Mr. Dieppe was a gentlmaii held in the highest esteem by the old settlers and the Missionary Fathers, as an intelligent worthy man, and is said to have made a valuable collection of notes and O.tli- fornia curiosities which he took with him to Ber- wliere he afterwards made hts residence as the Superintendent of a Government botauioal irur- WEJTBB Irrigation for Grain in Cai.ifou.via.— Winter irrigation can be applied to any deserip. tion of soil to great advantage. It is the only irrigation that can properly be applied to lauds de- ted to cereals, nor to such lands is the mere quality of fertilization, all the good that results from a winter irrigation. It is well know by the observant graiu^rower, that lor the last four years, uot a sufficient quantity ol water lias fallen, tu very many localities, to amount to a complete saturation. Mr. Horner remarks, that is the. degree of saturation that determines the annual yield or productiveness of his grain fjsldsj that invariably, iu e spring, after tbe usiinl rains of the season are pposed to have ceased, he carefully examine! his groAnds by digging, to ascertain the just tbe depth to which the surface waters have penetra- ed, and from this determines with singular accuracy, the length of time that the imbibed mois- . ) will sustain the crop in its progress towards maturity; and he always finds the deeper the saturation, the better the crop. He has in corroboration ol this remark, found by actual experiment, that wherever the water Irom' a mountain Btream turned upon grain lands in the autumn or winter, in addition lo the rains of the season, that such lauds invariably carry their erops further into the summer, of course with a longer season for maturity and consequently a more abundant yield.— Oulturist for November. lmm -»^» B^i [Prom the Arlionian. Recovkrt of Stock and Pu.visumust of Apaches.—A party of four Apaches, on or about the 29th ultimo, on one of tlieir thieving trips, as usual, visiled the ranch of Mr. Thomas Smith, an old resident of this town, and succeeded in driving off seven head of fat cattle, belonging to him. Immediately upon the loss being known, Mr. Smith and four of his men followed in pursuit. After a hard chase, ou the third morning, they suddenly came upon their cump in the mountains, about six miles lrom Santa Cruz, and a severe light at ouce ensued. The Indians fired several shots, being well supplied with powder and balls, and Bllghtlj injured Mr. Smith's negro man,also fatally wounding a favorite and valuable mule, Mr. Smith and party succeeded, however, in giving them their deserts ; killing three, the fourth e.-:cu[iinj/, and recovered all of the cattle, with the exception ol one which had been previously slaughtered. Tbey also took from them all the property tiiey bad, and returned to Tubm;. cims'ui;.T:\!dy tired, but well satisfied wilh the result of their chase, and the punishment they had Inflicted, PlJNIaflMENT OF Al'ACIlES BY THE TKOOrs.—A party of "Penalenas," were observed wilh seme fifteen head of horses, stolen probably from Sono- ra. on their way to the mountains j when Lieut. McNeill was ordered, with fifty mountedI men, tu follow the tra'irj aud u^erUke them, if poMfbfe.— On Monday, the 5th 111st., near Dragoon Springs, on the Overland Mail road, he succeeded in surprising them, and after a short fight killed two, tho rest escaping, and recovered all of tbe stolen properly, Lieut. .McNeill deserves great credit for the prompt manner lo which he Conducted tbts scout, and the success he met with, in inflicting ou them this signal chastisement. Bohoba affairs.—From reliable Information, we learn that Jasper S. Whiting, I>sq.. iu command of the Commission for the survey of Nouora, in the absence of Captain C. P. Stone, decided not to accept the verbal offe#madc by Pewjuiera to Captain Porter, of the U. S. sloop-of war St. Marys. He has entered hiH protest against the permission lo return, with a denial of the rights of the Commission to continue their survey ; and the course he has pursued, under tbe peculiar circumstances; ex isting, waB the only one he could have adopted.— Ibe Idea of returning without the privileges for wblob foe '■Commission" wan created, would have been absurd : independent of the fact, that the offer to return, which Captain Porter accepted as a settlement of their difficulties, was only a verbal one ; whereas, the order lor tbeir expulsion was a legal written document, and on file at the OoomkB residence at Guaymas. Dean Swilt proposed to lax female beauly. and leave every lady to rate her own charms, lie said the tax would be cheerfully paid, and very productive.
