On her departure from Marysville.. for Los Angeles,
June 15, 1858:
Ah ! dearest lady at whose loss we grieve,
A kind farewell from one unknown receive |?
Could but my pen with magic force prevail,
Never should you have spread the swelling sail
Ne'er seek a southern clime repose to lind,
Nor leave your kindred and your Iriends behind;
But thou hy gentle wedlock's transports to,
So thine the pleasure, our alone the woe ;
May thou be lavor'd with a faithful I'riendj
May roseate health ou (ill thy steps attend,
Safely conduct thee to thy conch at ete;
And in the morn thy first Salute receive,
Be peace of mind, and every joy thy guest,
While noi;e bUt gentle tian:']ierts warm thy breast,
And if'tis fate's decree that, jvou once more
By propp'roiis gales he borne to YaWa shore,
My mtiae again shall tune the vvocal lay,
Aud gently steal the listening sOiil away,
Avain w 11 sweetly char iri the attentive'throng,
With nil (lie elegance ot daSflti son;.- ;

A trifling tribute to my departed inuse.*

JLost to Society—Jjost.
BY   JAS. b. mc'quiixa.}:,
Touch not the fallen cne—drive her away
Guilty, and soulless, bnt beautiful clay :    ,
Though her heart's bleeding, heed hot h_:r pleading
At any cost ;
Forget what is __ood of her—speak, if you would,
of her
As lost—to society lost;
So sad and dejected, the poor broken-hearted —
Love, honor, and all, safe life, bate departed ;
None pn ffer relief to heal her heart's grief—
Oh! fearful the cost;
No one befriends her, fashion condemns her
As lost—to society lost.
Heed not her sighs, her entreaties or tears-
Spurn her as one for whohl nobody cares ;
Lost and degraded, to memory she's faded—'■
Trifling the cost ;
Forget you e'er blessed her, e'er kissed and caressed her,
She's lost—to society lost
Oh, pity her not—she has fallen from place ;
Applaud her betrayer—receive him with grace:
Smile on her deceiver, hut do not relieve her
At any cost:
For that is propriety in Christian society,
When lost-— to society lost.
Innocent, loving—betrayed and forsaken—
Guilty and 'alien, by vice overtaken ;
Let society blame her—try not to reclaim her
At any cost;
Forget all her beauty—do society's duty—
She's lost—to society lost.
Oh, merciless Fashiof>, why do yon nurture
Hypocrisy's laws and assassinate virtue?
Bow to the false text, oh, immaculate sex,
At any cost ;
Frown on.Uie.falleti one, then your proud duty-
done—
<S*he ia loPt—to society lost.
The C'*-at<;r of Fopotulupetl.
A short time sir.ee, a party visited the crater of
Popocatepetl, for the purpose of measuring it, and
of examining the works carried on there by Don
Gaspar SaucheJi Ochoa, for getting out sulphur,
The following is the official description of the crater, reported hy Capt. Lorenzo Pers. Castra, to the
government :
On reaching tho crater, every one was absorbed
with tbe surprising view of the interior. It may
be compared to heaven for beauty, and to the in*
fernal regions for sublime grandeur. The basalt;
the enow, the smoke belching forth from the
breathing holes, and the irregularity with which
It mixes with the surrounding air, form the most
admirable decorations. The crater opens on thi
north-west side of the summit, with an irregular
eliptic form, about 4U0 metres across at its widest
part. The margin is strewed with large basaltic)
rocks, grouped in the mos"; capricious manner;
though several rents the ashy-colored smoke
sues iu great quantities ; the rocks are black with
vertical fracture, and fhe upper part are covered
wilh Snow, The depth ofthe crater is about 200
metres, and the bellowing ofthe breathing holes,
and the falling of the large masses of rock, inspired a strange terror.
The day (May SI) so much desired by us, had
at last armed ; enlivened by a brilliant sun, we
prepared for the descent, At, eight o'clock iu the
morning, Sir Beltram descended first into the
abyss ; I followed, and I confess that I never appeared to myself of so much importance as at that
moment. Sir Sanchez Ochoa came next, and after
him Sr. Canedo, Sr. Vuelta being preveuted from
following us by the delicate state of bis health-
and the others being engaged in preparing our
food and directing the laborers. The latter were
working at tbe wheel whicb turned the rope by
whieh we were let down. We descended aa lar as
eighty metres, (tbe French metre ie about equal
to 39 37-100 English inches,) when we arrived at
a plane of over 45 degrees of inclination and 200
metres long. Here we found a ground composed
of sand and a great many loose --tones, by whicb
the danger of the descent was nuicli increased.
In Consequence ofthe great inclination, the stones
begin to roll at every movement that is made,
arid expose those who tread on them to the danger of falling down the abyss.
This inclined plane iscovered with snow, ".vhich
in the proportion you get nearer the bottom of the
crater, diminishes and disappears entirely, in consequence of tbe beat which is exhaled from the
bottom, although the temperature is not fery high.
Ah Eihtok's ASSSSSHRNT.—It does a dody good
to have his pride flattered once in a while. We
realize the benefit of it once a year, when the a*
sessors como round and ask how much money we
have at inferest, how much stock we have Jin th-0
publie'funds or in banks; and various othfer "goes-
tions that are supposed to be put only to the
'•solid men" If there is arybody around, we
straighten up slightly, expand our corporeity,
aud, in as heavy a chest tone as we can command,
we answer : " About ihe sam^ as last year." They
know well enough what that ia. So do we.— Canton (.Mo.) R'porttr

The Sacramento Statesman, of June 9lb. republishes an article from the California Star, of
April 1st, 1849, entitled " Prospects of California," written by Br. Victor J. Fourgeaud. The
Star of the above date, was made up " expressly
for circulation in the Atlantic States," and al
Ihough prtblisbed before the discovery of gold was
?_et'.ei-a!ly known, it contained more information
in regard to the resources, climate, and commercial advantages ofCalifornia, than any one paper
which lias;' since been published in the State. Thi
paper s were dispatched overland to the East, by a
special express, under the chiirge ot Mr. Xathan
Hauk, now a resident of Nevada; and the article*
which were Intended to stimulate immigration
were put iii type by the writer of tbis. Dr. Four
geaud's article was cons5d..red rather extravagant
at that time, yet even bis expectations have been
iiiore than realized. A re-perusal of the artl
brought vividly to mind in?:ny of the incidents
which were transpiring on tbis coast at the commencement of 1818. and of lhe woiub.-rlul changes
which have taken platie iu this State within the
period which has since elapsed. Ten years is a
Short time in the history of a State, yet it Iff tit) in
considerable part ofa life-time. Il we look back
to feat time, without reflecting upon the intervening incidents, it seems but a day ; but when we
think ofthe events which have transpired around
us, the peopling of a State, the magic growth of
cities, the development of unbounded mineral
wealth, the various ups and downs ofthe pioneers,
Who have alternately rolled in wealth and toiled
in poverty, it seems as if an age had passed since
the announcement of tbe discovery of gold flrsi
excited the cupidity of the inhabitants of San
FrancisCo. In the spring of 1848, San Francisco
contained about 800 inhabitants, and the total
white population of California did not exceed
20,000. The present population of San Francisco
Cannot be less than 00,000, ami that of the Slate

Bive and valuable as there is reason to anticipate,
a new impetus will be given to emigration, aud
the next ten ycais will bring around as many
changes upou the Pacific coast as have the ten

Wool Growing.—Owing to the peculiarity of
climate or soil, or more probably to bt'tb combined, live stock of every description flourish better
here than in itny other kuowu portion of tin
world. This is quite noticeable in the raising o
sheep, which thrive remarkably well, whether Jo
the production of wool, or for feed pm poses. In
quantity a3 well aa well as Quality, the improvement obtains, and tliL.* amount of fleece procurable from a given fiuinber of sheep, of whatever iulported breed, lias annually, thus far, increas
ed. The wool becomes more soft, heavier, longer
fiber, and turns out more plentifully at each sue
cessive shearing. This 13 a femarfeable faet, per.
haps only to be accounted for o:i the score of tin
great salubrity of the climate, and the superior
nutritive properties of our pastures, whether
tiye or cultivated.
It has been suggested by experienced par
lhat California sheep raisefS ffftght do well by
crossing the Chihuahua sheep with the American
stock procured by the plains. It is thought that
the fleece would thereby be much improved. The
New Mexican blood, however, ehoald not be al
lowed to predominate, btft those sheep manifest
ing it in excess should supply tlie place of others
for slaughtering purposes when needed. Suih
showed a predominance of the American blood,
might be further advantageously crossed with the
South Down, or other favoritie imported varieties. Some experiments of this kind which have
beeu tried on a limited scale, have, as we afe informed, been highly satisfactory. Tbesuggestion
is, perhaps, worthy tbe at ten (fori of sheep raisers,
and so regarding it, we make the allusion.—8. F\

Thk See-ox Little Man AT LoxgwokthV.—- The
Cincinnati Times has the following ;
We are told of a pleasant incident, illustrative
of a peculiarity of our fellow citizen, which, perhaps, deserves to be related. A young married
couple from Kentucky, on a visit to thiscity,having a day to spend iu sight seeing, were directed
to the garden of Mr. Longworth. as worthy of a
call, and determined to ask permission to make'a
r of the premises. On passing through the
gate in front of the mansion, they were met by a
seedy looking individual, somewhat advanced In
years, who, from his appearance, they supposed to
ittached to tho eat a bit 8b meat; of *fc-bom they
asked if leave to make the proposed lour would
be aC'cOrded. The little man uot ouly aifSsnffS
them that they were at liberty te proceed, but volunteered to accompany them, showing them
t&rwugH the grounds and conservatories, pointing
ottt, iu the politest manner, evory object of curiosity. Having arrived at the gate, aud being
about ' ' leave, tbe visitor did not feel at liberty
to depart without giving some evidence of his ap.
preciation of the politeness of his guide, and _fo
drawing from hia pocket a quarter, he tendered it
u the usual form, and was astonished to find it
refused. After much urgency, the other party, to
avoid lurther importunity, was constrained to inform his visitor that he was no other that the veritable Nicholas himself, whereupon the young gentleman waa not a little chagrined and confused,
and made multiplied apologies. The story, however ends handsomely. Mr. Longworth Invitee
the other party into the house, shows liim Ihe
statuary aud pictures, talks him out of ble embarrassment, gives him a taste of Catawba, and sends
him away at peace with himself and the reBt of
mankind, and very enthusiastic in praise of tne
Int1,1 tta-Q who took him in ao handsomely.
Foo-to once asked a man without a sense oflune
in him1, " Why are you forever humming lhat
turBe?"
*■ Because it haunts me," was the reply.
"No wonder," answered Foote, " yuu are forever murdering it."

Iu  the forthcoming  volume of Col. Benton'rf
" Abridgement," there ia the following note to a
speech of Mr. Randolph, in whieh Mr. Randolph
poke of a repitition by "Junius" of a remark of
Lord Chatham. If the puzzle is not yet solved of
the authorship ot "Junius," this terse and Vigorous summing up ofthe theories is unmistakably
fjbaracteiHetie of the "Thirty Years' Senator,"
and not unworthy of either the real or ebpposcd
author of the celebrated letters :
"When the author of this abridgement (saya
Col. Centon) was ten years old, which was in the
last decade (borrowing Llvy'S division of time iu
Ihe expression) of the last Ccnttiry, and before en-
ligatened writers had thrown darkness on tbe authorship of Junius, it was well conceded that thera
was but one man in England or the world, who
united in himself all the qualii.es of head, heait
and temper. At the the incidents of polfflcaf and
personal life, which the Writing of these letters
required ; but one mau who had eucli power to
drive the English language, such knowledge of
men and things, such lofty and daring spirit, such
inducement to publish his thoughts and conceal
his name, an oratorical fame already so great as
fo set him above the assumptiou of that of Junius,
great as it was. That one mau was Lord Chatham, then old and out ot favor with lhe King and
dominant parties; relegated (by his peerage) to
that "Hospital of Incurables," the HouBe 0^
Lords, wheu no patriot voice cou'd reach the
Commons of Bn gland ; retired to his country seat
at itayes, arid all visitors shut out ; discontented,
despairing, restless, and seeing no way to reach
the people but through the press, aud by means of
appeals ; bold to audacity, patriotic to temerity,
and the more impressive because shrouded in tho
mystery ofan unknown origin. So stood Lord
Chatham and Junius in the latter part oftlie century in which they lived, convertible characters'
identical iu person."
Not Pi'shino Him.—Some time aeojotl ttie Sabbath, we wended our way to one oi our Chhrches,
ar.d, instead of a seffrtorr, heard an: address on
some missionary or Other benevolent subject.'
After the address was concluded, fwo brothers
were stmt around with a basket lor contributions.
Parson L. was one of the basket-bearers, taking
the side upon -which we sat; Immediately in our
front, and on the next scat." negligently reclined
cur friend Hill II., a gentleman of infinite humor
and ftfll of dry jokes. Parson L. extended the
basket, and Billy slowly shook his head.
"Coffle, William, give us something," eaid the*
Parson.
" Can't do it," replied Bill;
li Why not?    Is not the cause a good one J
" Yes; but I am not able io give anything."
"Poh! poh! 1 kn0# better; you* rfftfct give a
better reason than that."
" Well, I owe too much money—I must be just
before I am generous, you know."
" But, William, you owe _heLo:o" a larger debt
than you do any one else."
" That's trne, parson r but then he ainl a poshing me. like the balance of my creditors."
Who is Col. Kane?—In answer lo this^efltion
the St. Louis Republican says :
Some curiosity is expressed to know who Col.
Kane, tho gentleman who seems to have acted as
a mediator between the Mormons of tftah and
Gov. Cumming*** is. In ehe quarter we have seen
it stated that he is a Mormon. But this is wrong;
he never was a Mormon, tie is a young man —
the son ofthe late Judge Kane of Philadelphia,
and brother of Dr. Kane, the Arctic explorer. He
held the office of ClerL1 of the District Court, until tbe death of his father—an event which bas
happened since Col. Kane left for Utah. A few
years since, he was in this section of country, and
pa-.vd some months of his time in the Moimon
settlements of Iowa, lie became a favorite wilh'
hem. and lhe town of Kaneville, marked out and
nhabilei*! by them, was named after hitn.
TSb W.n'e Districts.—The Montteitr Ptnieole
says: " The return of lhe oidinni is announced
from several parts of the wine cTslricts, but happily it is not so formidable as in former years,
and. as sulphur, which in a complete cure for it,
Can be employed 'Tndur favorable conditions, it is
Bel eved that it will do little harm. The vines'
continue to be of magnificent appearance, and
there has thus far be«n little or no frost. In the
principal markets prices ol tfir?C have declined,'
but consumers only, not tiie t.'ade, have rnade purchases ; and the consequence is that affairs are in
a slate of stagnation."
Aaron Bonn's DA-/u*'.n:.i.— A sailor died recently in Texas, and ou his death-bed confessed
that he was one of the crew whb murdered Mrs.
Alston, of South Carolina, 40 years ago. Mrs.
Alston was the daughter of Aaron Burr. She
Balled from-Charleston for New York,-aiid on ihe_
