REST- appetite poor, digestion bad, and PAINS IN THE BODY, BACK AND HEAD? Reader, much ot this is caused from COLD, caught unwittingly, or, in seven cases out often, SLUGGISHNESS OF THE LIVER AND BLOOD, and want ofNATURAL PERSPIRATION, indiscretion iu the use of FOOD AND DRINK, or from a dryness .n the atmosphere—whicli is a very unhealthy part of this climate—many ofthe AWFUL, VIOLENT AND SUDDEN DEATHS that occur here must be attributed to this. Now, reader, I have nade this my study for many years, and I do assure you that mv DR. WEBBER'S INVIGORATING CORDIAL will cure these causes—it will nsure animation of the LIVER, BLOOD AND BRAINS—it strengthens the nerves, and gives to the sufferer a lightness of spirits, a mental and bodily feeling of strength tbat is delightful.

It can, indeed, be conscien- ciously recommended lo all suffering, and the proprietor regrets deeply that it is necessary thus to advertise it, in order that its merits may be.known.

BY EDWARD l'GLLOCK. Hail to the root that in Erin advances, And long live our brethren on praties to dine, And fair be the blossom in summer that glances The stay and eupport of the Patlander line. Long may they look on them, sending forth bud and stem, Rejoicing the bosoms of i&Mllah and Ned, And long may the murphy rig send them forth, dry and big, For there's nothing for Pat like a thumping Cork red. When Smiling spring comes with its sunshine and showers, Shedding verdure and beauty all over the land, It's there you'll see Pat in his glory and power With liis coat on tlie rig and his spade in Ids hand; And beside him bis Judy dear, singing his heart to cheer, Laying the praties in rows on his bed— While hope in hia bosom swells, autumn advancing tells Nothing for Pat like a thumping Cork red. Ye haunts of proud pleasure, ye gardens and flowers, Show me aught like a held of fine praties in bloom, Where the constant cry out through the long summer hours Is—"Can't you lie over and give mo more room." With joy then he sees them round, rising above the ground, For they cannot get room for to lie in their bed ; While hope in his bosom swells, autumn advancing tells Nothing for Pat like a thumping Cork red. In cold winter time when the frost binds the fountain, And the cabin hearth smiles with the turf fire bright; When snow in white raiments has covered the mountain, Let the boys roast the praties from morning till night— Always, their coats within, gravy to so,ik them in, That is far better than porridge or bread ; And only let pork or fish smoke near the pratiedish, And there's nothing for Pat like a thumping Cork red. When Ned and wee Barney come home from their toiling, No greeik'tay nor coffee for supper they seek; But there Th cy sit round watching tlie praties boiling, And eat them just twenty-one times in the week. And if ever a jug of hot whisky should simmer By the hearth that makes pleasant the sod-covered shed, It won't make the wit of the boys a bit dimmer, Nor spoil the sweet taste of a thumping Cork red. Native Wines.—A committee of tlie British Parliament, says the Springfield Republican, has advocated, in a report, the reduction of duties on foreign wines, as a means of ameliorating the inroads of intemperance, and they point to America as the source from whence au abundant future supply may be obtained. It will surprise Americans, who know so little of the wine business in this country, to know that the sparkling Catawba is already a favorite wine on the tables ofthe aristocracy of Europe, aud has attained such celebrity that iu the best vine regions the Catawba has been introduced into the vineyards, Coz/_en: Wine Press asserte.tbat the value of the home production cf wine already exceeds that ofthe consumption of foreign wines as two to one. We think this must he a larger estimate, unless Mr, Cozzen includes that branch of the manufacture in which the juice of the grape is not essential. That sort of American wine doublless exceeds aU that is expressed from American grapes or imported from abroad. We can believe, however, that the production of genuine native wine is much greater than is generally supposed. It is stated that the wine made at El Paso, New Mexico, is equal to one-fifth ofall the wines imported into the United States- A single house at Lo;i Angeles. California, put up, last year, one hundred aud thirty thousand bottles of sparkling native wine, and an acre of vineyard in that vicinity is said to produce one thousand gallons of wine per year. The whole amount made at Los Angeles last year is estimated at three hundred and fifty thousand gallons, Iu Ohio and Missouri the vine culture is already one of its greatest interests, and is rapidly extending. The rich, rolling prairie of Kansas is admirably adapted to the culture of the vine, and it is said that some wild grapes, which grow in great abundance there, are of a very excellent quality. Even Connecticut talks about becoming a wine producing State. Cooper's prophecy that in fifty years, or sooner, we shall export our poetry and wine, is already beginning to be fulfilled, and present facts warrant the expectation that the United States will become a wine producing country. A very agreeable wine is said to have beeu made from toma. toes, and at a late pomological meeting iu London, a gentleman handed around some wine manufactured from mangel wurtzel, which was pronounced excellent, and which the manufacturer said could be produced for sixpence a quart, A chemist who analyzed it said that it only needed an astringent, such as might he supplied from the hop root, to render it a wholesome beverage- With wine from beets, and whiskey from sorghum, exhilarating drinks are not likely to become ECarco. . ~^-.:-«.-._<3-_.>*_-,. California Wine.—A writer in "Hunt's Merchant's Magazine," after stating that according to the laws of France, which country has paid more attention to the subject than all the world besides, a wine which results from a mixture of wines, is not an adulteration, goes on to Bay : "The best unmixed wine made in the United States is made in Loa Angeles, California. Tlie vine was introduced into that country from Madeira, by cuttings, about a century and a half ago; aud the flavor of the grape, and the aroma of lhe wine produced from it, are both maintained in the highest degree. It therefore requires no "pure juice" of foreign production to give it an acceptable zest. Other species of grape idso flourish there ; and tho soil climate and labor all seem to combine to place it at the head of our wine growing districts. Other wines, made in tho United States, generally have added to them certain proportions of the qualities they arc intended to represent. These may be considered as pure mixed wines. Longworth, the great pioneer in American wine making, has succeeded in producing wine of undoubted purity, equal to some of the finest foreign ; but, as a general thing, it has not the flavor of the chief grape used in its pro- ductiQft.'' Silver iioiii tne Gadsden purchase. We are informed that the Tueson silver mines, in tho Gadsden Purchase, are yielding ore which is pronounced to bo of exceeding great richness. Some specimens have recently been assayed in this city, which yielded in the proportion of two thousand dollars per ton. The mine from which this valuable ore is extracted ia in the heart of the richest mining district of " The Purchase," and on the direct road from Fort Yuma to El Paso. There is great diffi culty and expense incurred in transporting th> ore to the sea coast, but this embarrassment will shortly be remedied, inasmuch as a smelting uace is about being erected near the mines. There has been uutil recently much Sanger apprehended from the surrounding tribes of Indians, and with good reason, for they have long been known as amongst the most hostile of any on the continent. Of late, however, they have become peaceable and friendly.—Alt a. State Prisox Matteks.—From all that we can learn, says the Statesman, fhe affairs of the State Prison at San Queutin are progressing favorably. Thus far, there have been no escapes, and the convicts are all engaged in useful occupations. We are informed that seventy-seven thonsand bricks arc being manufactured each day, a portion of which are pressed brick. In addition to this, a large number of convicts are engaged in quarrying and dressing stoue. Other mechanics are actively employed—for instance, the tailors are turning out a large quantity of clothing, aud the shoemakers aro also en gaged iu their avocation, with the same activity. At the rate that articles of apparel are now being manufactured, in a short time all will be properly clothed. So far as discipline is concerned, all seems tc be entirely satisfactory. The officers and guard seems to be efficient, and there is little left- lhat particular, to complain ot. One slight r understanding wc cannot avoid noticing, not by way of complaint, but to show that those most trusted will sometimes prove delinquent- An old gate-keeper, John Sell, has incurred tlie displea ure of the Board of Directors, and has been du missed. We had considered him a fixture, but it seems we were mistaken. Something has turned up that has interfered with his fair standing, and he is displaced. We hear of no other removal. Birth-Day of Queen Victoria.—Her Majesty Queen Victoria, Queen of Great Britain, completed her thirty ninth year yesterday. Should she live to see another natal anniversary, she will have come up to Lord Byron's standard of femab attractiveness. The English Consulate, aud those of other nations, were gaily decorated with flags in honor of the occasion. Queen Victoria has given birth to eight children, the eldest of which was recently married to the Prince Royal Frederick William, eldest son of the King of Prussia, at the age of seventeen years. Her next eldest child is Albert. Prince of Wales, heir to the throne of Great Britain, In the evening, a large party of our most prominent English residents sat down to a sumptuous dinner, in the building on California street, adjoining Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express establishment. It is needless to add that it was enjoyed, as Englishmen know how to enjoy, a good entertainment.—Herald, 25th. British Subjects in California.—While we are pretty well posted as to the -number of French" men, Germans, Spaniards, and Chinese in California, very few are aware of the largo British resident population in this country. The similarity of language and personal appearance between the English and Americans, makes it difficult to distinguish them apart, while the reverse is tbe case with those of other nationalities. At the meeting held at the British Consulate some time since raise means for endowing a suilable hospital for the English, Mr. Booker stated that California contained^.fourteen thousands British subjects. Iu his dispatch to Government, he wrote that th sum of six thousand dollars had been expended the year previous, for the small hospital now in this city, which was considered a large sum hy the Government. But when informed ofthe number of British subjects in California, the Government generously proposed to give a sum equal to what ths English in this State would subscribe for the purpose of an hospital.—& F. Herald. Deaths of Notables at the East.—One ofBcn- ton's old colleagues in tlie Senate has followed him to fhe tomb. The Hon. William Marks, of Pennsylvania, died iu Beaver, Pa., on the 10l.li April. He was a member of the United States Senate from that State, and a cotemporary ot Webster. Ilayne, Clay, Calhoun, Benton, "fee., nnd was for five years associated with the latter on the Military Committee. Though differing radically in politics, the two men were nevertheless strong personal friends. The death of Mr. Marks occurred on the samo day, and within a few hours of that of Mr. Benton. The Eastern papers alpo chronicle the death of the Hon. Thomas R. Whitney, formerly Know Nothing member of Congress from New York ; tl also of Gen. Thomas, assistant secretary of state under Mr. Marcy. The latter died iu Paris Confirmation.—The most llev. Doctor Alemany administered the sacrament of confirmation yesterday morning to a number of children, in the Cathedral and in St. Patrick's Church. The girls were attired in white, veils of the same color covered the head of each, reaching down ou the houlders, and wreaths of flowers encircled their foreheads. Their appearance was very interesting, and they appeared to realize the sneredness of the rite wliich was inteued to strengthen their faith in Christianity.—Herald, 23d ult. UndbbGOTNQ Repairs.—The Mechanics' Pavilion, whicli has suffered almost total unroofing from the high winds within the past week, is undergoing repairs for the purpose of accommodating the State Horticultural Society, which will hold an exhibition in a short time.—Ibed. Eight convicts at the State Prison, at San Quen- tin, attempted to escape on the 13th May. They seized four horses, and attempted to ride by the guards. One of the prisoners was shot through the body with a rifle ball, aud another wounded in the wrist, and all of them were captured and secured. The man wounded in the body it is thought will die. Coast Survey op the United States.—In a re-' view of the operations of the Coast Survey Department, Professor Baehe, in a tf6mm&iicatU)'rf to Silliman's Journal of Scietice, Says: The survey of a coast so extensive as that of tho United States is, even in its general features,' a work of immense extent. That coast stretches from New Brunswick to Mexico,- and frcm the' Straits of Fuca to Old California; upon tho Atlantic and Gulf from the 24th to the -llth parallel; upon the Pacific from tbe-12d to thc50tb. Within; that range of more than 5000 miles, it embracerf every geographical peculiarity, innumerable islands, bays, capes and headlands, line the long reach of shore. Sand-b.mks, hundreds of miles in length, enclosing shallow half-inland soundB,' and bajs stretching fat into the interior, likti Norwegian fiords, are among its most striking features. The Coast Survey must accurately locate erery prominent point, map out the bottom of every bay and harbor, fix the bearings of every reel and shoal, trace the course of every current/ deduce from long-continued observations the law_r of the tides, aud, in short, observe and uieaeuf every peculiarity in the physical geography of tho Coast, which the most refined science, the most delicate methods of observation, and tha most perfect instruiuental raeaua can measure or detect. The tidal observations of the Pacific coast, hare casually led to a determination of great ecienttfl« interest, that of the average depth' of the Paciflo' Ocean between the coasts of Japan aud California.- On the 23d of December, 185-f, an earthquake occurred in Japan by which the town of Simoda, itf the island of Niphon, was destroyed.' From the' imperfect accounts which have reached us, it appears that at 9 A. M. on that day, the severe shock of an earthquake was felt on board tho' Russian frigate Diana, then lying in tbe harboV of Simoda. Half an hour later the sea came into' the bay in an immense wave thirty feet in height,- overwhelming the town and then recediug. This advance and recession occurred five timeB; and by 2.30 P. M. all was again quiet. The depth of the sea during these changes varied from less* than eight to more than farty feet. Upou the same day an extraordinary rise and fall of water was observed at Peel's Island, one of tbe Bonla Islands, and tho tide continued to rise aud fall during the day at intervals of fifteen minutes gradually lessening until evening. ■ -■«*<«»■_■— . Tue American Flag.—On the IS'thJJof Aprfl,- 1818, the present flag of the United States waa hoisted for the first time over tho hall of tho House of Representatives. This day is consequently the fortieth anniversary of the flag, aa adopted aud established by an act of Congress, approved April 4, 1818. It was designed hy Capt"' Sain. C. Reid, who, in 1814, when in command of the privateer General Armstrong, fought wi£tf a British fleet the most brilliant naval engagement to be found on record. Having thus sustained the honor of his country's escutcheon, no one could have been found more worthy of being the author ofthe flag wliich now floats over the Union*' Previous to the adoption of the present flag by- Congress, the number of stripes in the old flag had beeu increased to eighteen, according to the' number of States admitted into tbo Union, thus destroying the beauty aud perspicuity of the flag; and, while this order was preserved in some, others contained but nine stripes, as fancy dictated. Oo the admission of Indiana into the Union in 1816,- Mr. Peter II. Wendover, of New York, offered a resolution " that a committee be appointed to inquire into tho expediency of altering the flag of the United Slates." A committee was appointed.' who reported a bill oo the 2d of January, 1817, but it was not acted upon. While the committee had the matter under consideration, Mr. Wendover called upou Capt. Reid, who was in Washington at the time, and requested him to form a design of our flag, so as to represent the increase of the States, without destroying itsdistinctivechar- acter, as the committee wei'e about to increase the stars and stripes to the whole number of States. Captain Reid recommended that the stripes bo re-* duced to the original number of thirteen States, and to form the number of stars representing tho' whole number of States into oufc great star in the' Union, adding one star for every new Stato, thus* giving the signincant meaning to the flag, symbolically expressed, of " E Pluribus Uuum." This: design of Capt. Reid was adopted in committee,- but the bill did not pass Until the next Congress,- 1818.— Washington Union. John C. Fremont, not satisfied with the ruling of the State Supreme Court in his Mariposa claim/ to extracting the gold by squatting miners, has filed a voluminous complaint in the United States Circuit Court against the Merced Mining Compa- He now claims as a citizen of New Vork, to* be the owner of Las Mariposas, or tbe Fremont Grant, under grant from Alvarado. He alleges trespass aud waste by the defendants, prays that they may be compelled to answer in the premises,1 and be enjoined from committing further waste,* &c. The questions in this suit fire very important, not only to Col. Fremont personally, bat to all miners in California.—Bulletin. StampS.—The Sacramento Union says tbat the State Comptroller, previous to the mailing of the Eastern steamer, forwarded to San Francisco, by' the State Treasurer, stamps for bills of lading lor- suie, whicli had the effect of securing io the' State Treasury a fund of about $2000. We are nfornu-d that the insurance stamps will also bo ready by the time orthe sailing of the pest steamer and that the monthly tax fiom slamps will not be'likely to fall short of $10.0110, making the sum total, for the year, about $120,000, constituting no inconsiderable income to our State revenue fund. The murderers of Frank Lane, who was killed; by horse-thi eves in the San Jimquin valley some three weeks ago, have been either killed or captured. A part of the citizens of the valley, under the command of C. A. Potter, turned cut, armed themselves and pursued the gang of horse thieves and desperadoes for several days. On coming up with them, a desperate light ensued,, in which one of the gang of thieves was killed, and one of Col. Potter's party slightly wounded.

appetite poor, digestion bad, and PAINS
IN THE BODY, BACK AND HEAD? Reader,
much ot this is caused from COLD, caught unwittingly, or, in seven cases out often, SLUGGISHNESS OF THE LIVER AND BLOOD, and want
ofNATURAL PERSPIRATION, indiscretion iu
the use of FOOD AND DRINK, or from a dryness
.n the atmosphere—whicli is a very unhealthy
part of this climate—many ofthe AWFUL, VIOLENT AND SUDDEN DEATHS that occur here
must be attributed to this. Now, reader, I have
nade this my study for many years, and I do assure you that mv DR. WEBBER'S INVIGORATING CORDIAL will cure these causes—it will
nsure animation of the LIVER, BLOOD AND
BRAINS—it strengthens the nerves, and gives
to the sufferer a lightness of spirits, a mental and
bodily feeling of strength tbat is delightful. The
many respectable persons who have been bcnelit-
ed by and certified to its extraordinary qualities
in curing any of tbe following diseases, must satisfy all but tbe self-wise and ignorant skeotic—

MUSCULAR OR BODILY STRENGTH
AND MENTAL ENERGY; FEVER,

WE A KNESS OF THE NA TURAL FUNCTIONS, DEBILITY FROM DISEASE, DIS-
IPATIOA", too much doctoring, debauchery, and
other causes ; iu case of excitement from constant
intemperance, and where delirium tremens has
occurred, I have seen it change the sufferer iu

Sarsaparilla and Bitter Drinkers
Read !
Deak Sm, and Good Friend.—1 herewith inform you that I have taken, in seven months, over
sixty bottles of Sarspatilla, Bitters, and other
emedies fur confirmed Dyspepsia, Weakness of
the Chest, Indigestion, and a general feebleness
of my system, without getting any particular relief. Two bottles of your Cordial have benefited
me so much that I am a different being. Please
to send two bottles more, which I feel sure will
effect a perfect cure. II this will benefit you or
the afflicted, vou are at liberty to publish it.
