THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 3, 1851. LITERATURE. I which were crowded morning, noon, and night, and cer tainly with the most mixed and motley coagregatious I ever before vritnessod—whites, halt -caste, copper, mahogany, !and blacks—delegates from every nation that takes any tp Art or interest in the commerce or intercourse of the world, their features !nor,: varied than their colours, end their costumes representing the fashions of their several ' countries. The jargon of voices, mutters, and exclamations of th votaries of for:une, made a must strange medley of c00n.!., and you e mid !teeny well discover tile Val lOUS on tional characteristics of the players in the propes. of the game ; the cool indifference of the Russian or the Turk, the latter placidly stroking his beard under the frowns of the ! tickle goddtss; while the Frenchman at his elbow wasp sibilating hi. metes, and the Yankee opposite cursing and thumping th • table with boisterous vehemence ; Paddv down at the e'l'l eQn.Olind himself with philosophic rc flection, "Olt the worse luck now the better aguin"— " Come my hearties, send round the ball—a faint heart never won a fair lady—hurroo ;" the cloaked Spaniard and the phlegmatic German laying down their stakes mechani rally from the outside; the Scotch chief poking in his head from the same region, lest to se.: how the chances run " afore he raked his er ;" while Italians smoked and hunnued, and Chinese looked as innocent as if tricks were no part of their training. All the new-corners staked coin, the miners dust, some of them putting down large purses at a single venture, exclaiming, "Now fi n. it—h ome or t h e digging "The aiggiu.., by Heaven!" as the president raked the bag into the infernal cotrus ; and uppot the miner to go ilig another fortune, nod again to have it charmed from hts grasp. The harbour was full of ships, and wages were high ; the cost of tightening the tyres of a waggon was:l2 dollars, and twelve were demanded for shoe ing a horse. While on his way to Sacramento, by water, Mr. Kelly came into the following Excursion folifurnsa. By Wx. Ktf.t.Y. Chapman and Hall. It would be strange if this were not a most inte resting hook, for the writer has two worlds to de seri!fe—CalifOrnia a,' 1 the Prairie. And, as if this were nut enoagh, he recounts the schievements and experiences of a march over desert, river, and moun tain such as, for length, peril, and difficulty, has per- haps never been equalled. Mr. Kelly was foremost in the first flight of the great overland emigration to California. In the spring of Isl 9 he left the fron tier town of li . t. pen denec captain of a et - unmet little band, composed of twenty-five young fellows, in cluding English, Irish, Scotch, and Yankees, • all wearing, for convenience, a sort of half-mili tary, half-sporting dress, and armed both at th e belt mod saddle-bow. Their train consisted of five light waggon , , drawn by forty-five mules, and ac-' compamed by 13 hor-es for the riders of the party. The road lay across the lirairie, through the hunting grounds of various tribes, over the Rocky Mountains' and the Great Sierra Nevada. Nut one of the party knew the pathless and =travelled route, its resources, obstacles, or dangers; the expedition must suffice for itself in progressive, constructive, and defensive ability, as well as in provision for its sustenance. • The journey was nevertheless safely and success fully accomplished, and here is its record. 'lo launch into the solemn stilness of uninvadcd nature, on nn °manlike expanse of grass, extending to the horizon—to pursue a journey of months over meadows too quickly alternating with sandy wastes and rocky steeps—to watch the trooping deer, the bounding antelope, the shaggy buffalo, the fleet wild horvc, and the wilder Indian; to travel for days without water; to encamp nt night, knowing that the nearest tree may conceal a savage enemy, or that the wolfish oitject that prowls in the distance may be nn Indian in disguise; to lie down in a cloud of mos quitoes, and feel an army of crickets warming their cold toes about your mouth—these are only a few of the elements which enter into the meaning of an overlie= journey to California. Mr. Kelly's party travelled from Independence to Fort Laramie, as a small, defenceless, and shabby trading station is called (700 miles). Thence to the Pacific Spring (325), to Fart Bridget (139), to Salt Lake Cite (112), to the head-waters of Humboldt river (329), to the of the same river (200), to the base of the Sierra Nevada (131), and thence 113 miles to the fi rst entainvinent in California at Weber-creek, 188 miles from San Francisco, making an entire dis tance of 2,316 miles, which was accomplished in a hundred and two days, including stoppages. In their progress they had to make corduroy roads across morasses, dig away river banks, construct bridges or rafts, be ides brushing off hostile Indians, and contending with innumerable difficulties from which caravans are now fortunately exempt. At one time the whole party was busy lowering the waggons and mule; down the almost perpendicular sides of a rock, as drayinen lower barrels into a cellar; at another the bed of the waggon was pulled off its wheels to be used as a ferry over the river. From the narrative of the journey which engrosses the ',ages of Mr. Kelly's first volume, scores ofpic turesque descriptions and moving narrativ es might be selected; two, however, must suffice if we arc to have room to notice California. The first shall be of PO.ITION. The deck was altogether unsafe, for the bulwarks were so low they afforded no protection from a sharp list; but as her sails were lowered and not furled, I bethought me that probably the beg of the f oresa il m i g ht afford a tolerahlo hammock. So crawling forward during an interregnum, I made fast the boom of it securely, and, dropping myself down, was soon swayed into a pro:sound sleep, which was broken in upon in the middle of the night by the noise of the crew and the shouting of the captain to hoist the sails. I could not instantly bring to mind my situation, and made no effort to arise till I found the canon gipping sensibly In folds front under me, and the boam swinging violently, when I became conscious of my situation and danger, roar ing with might and main without making myself heard. I then endeavoured to get upright, but every lift of the sail upset me; and as it was last getting chock up, I felt the peril of my position: grasping at the reef-points, two of which I got hold of, and being in the scroud row, they just enabled me to reach my toes ;to the boom; however, as I was to leeward, the basing of the sail to it stiff breeze made my hold very in-..cure mid fearfully dangerous, tieing who'lv unper ceived in the dark, and the vessel going free, full eight knots. I tried again to attract attention, but my efforts were drowned by the rushing of the waters awl the whist ling of the wind through the cordage; my hold and footing now got more difficult and uncertain, rendering me dread fully nervous and exhausted. Just a. , I was about abandon ing all hope, the man at the helm, ruff ring li.r to take a yaw to leeward, the sail jibed, and, as it passed over the deck, I dropped down almost in a state of insensibility. It was a miraculous and providential deliverance, and led to the rvgistration of a vow on the suhject of hammocks, which I would ncommend all travellers to imitate. It seems our barque got :Moat in deli water earlier than we expected, and there being no more shoals or banks in our course, and tolerable starlight, the captain ordered the melt to make sail, my lucky star being in the ascendant, else there would have been an abrupt conclusion to my Cali fornian rambles mud adventures. Atter a short stay at Sacramento, and a long at tack of its ague, Mr. Kelly once mom set out on a clravan journey; this time to the mines to the north of the city; travelling with oxen, halting, mining, and again journeying. This part of the narratiro continues to he almost entirely personal, until the return to Sacramento. On this tract Mr. Kelly had an A PERILOCI4 PREDICAMENT. The waggons, from the very tle..p sand and hi:h hills, were constrained to make a wide circuit; hut with the pack-mules we took an Indian font trail along the ricer in a direct line, the hanks Is:coming Lich and I,D•cipibmg as we proceeded, the path continuing to run close by the edge. After a few miles' progress we commene,sl ascending the hip of lofty sandstone bluffs in single tile, as the trail would not admit of 118011`. It wound up the heights impending over the ricer at such easy gradients, we scarcely perceived our elevation, until we came to a sharp angle, where it suddenly narrowed, and the side of the hill became per fectly upright, with the river foaming at its base. My horse stopped short with a snort and a shudder that first made me feel the imminence of the danger—there was bar. ly apace for hint to stand, as he leant inwards, crushing my knee and shoulder against the face of the melt. I looked cautiously' round to see if there was any chance of retracing our steps, 'hut immediately saw thene was none—not even room fur a goat to turn round—while the horsemen and pack-animals were all in a string, quite close together, pressing aiminst one another in consequenc e o f m y s t o p. I felt toy head queer, and would have dismounted if I could, but this was impracticable. While wavering from nervous ness in this awful situation, my horse got a smart nip be hind from an impatient mule, that made him wince, and what with the squeeling and noise in the rear, I knew they were biting and crowding each other, of which I hail soon further proof s by their shot inm bodily forward my trim- Ming nag; so, seeing there was nothing for it but advance, I gently urged hint, giving hint full rein, when, with stooped head and distended eyes, he shuffled forward a little ; leaning aside SA much, he km rated my knee very badly, till coming to a place where the path shelved so quickly outwards as to render the limited footing fearfully hazardous, he propped nut his fore legs, as if resolutely bent on ;vilest no further; but there was not time Mr a second's reflection, when the mules came hump against him, with an impetus that sent him sliding along. _ _ _ ENCOr N TER WITH • nr.A ft. But stopping in a gully to look for water, I found a little pool, evidently scratched out by a bear, as there were footprints and claw-marks about it, and I was aware instinct prompts that brute where water is nearest the surface, when he scratches until In 1:01Alvi to it. This was Mae Of very large size, the foot-mark behind the toes being full nine inches; and although I had my misgivings about the prudence of a tele . ..ft-We with a great grisly bear, still the " better part of valour" was overcome, as it often is, by the anticipated honour and glory of a single combat, and conquest of such a ferocious beast. I was well armed, too, with my favourite rifle, a Colt's revolver, that never disappointed me, and a nondescript weapon, a sort of crossi betwiat a claymore WO a bowie-knife; so, after capping' afresh, hangieg the bridle on the horn of the ,addle, and staking my mule, I followed the trail up a gully, urn, much sooner than I expected, caste within slew and good shoot big distance of bruin, who was Seated erect, with his side towards me, in front of a mauxanita bush, making a repast on his favourite berry. The sharp click of the cock causing him to turn quickly round, left little time for deliberation; so, taking a ready good aim at the region of the heart, I let drive, the ball (as I subsequently found) glancing along the ribs, entering the armpit, and shattering smartly some of the shoulder bones. I c &alkyl as I saw hint stagger and COMO to his side ; Cie next glance, however, revealed him, to my dis may, on all fours, In direct pursuit, but going lame ; so I bolted for the mule, sadly encumbered with at huge pair of Mexican spurs, the nervous noise of the crushing brush close in my rear convincing me he was fast gaining on me; I therefore dropped my rifle, putting ou fr,sh steam, and reaching the rope, pulled up the picket-pia, and, springing into the saddle with merely . a hold of the lariat, pl unge d the spurs into the mule, wh ich, much to my affright, pro duced at kick anal a retrograde movement; but in the exer tion, having got a amps.: of my pursuer, uttering a snort of terror, he went off at a pace I dial not think him capable of, soon wiahuiug the distance betwixt us anal the hear; hut having no means of guiding his motion., he brought me violently in contact with the arm of a tree, which unhorsed and stunned me exceedingly. Scrambling to my feet as well as I could, I saw my relentless enemy close at hand, leaving me the only alternative of ascending a tree ; hut in my flurried and nervous efforts, I had scarcely my feet shove his reach, when he was right under, evidently culeebled by the loss of blood, am the exertion made it well out copiously. Afar a ment's pause, anal a fierce glare upwards from his bloodshot eyes, he clasped the trunk ; but I saw his endeavours to climb were crippled by the wounded shoulder. However, by: the aid of his jaws, he just succeeded in reaching the first branch with his sound arm, and was working convulsively to bring up 'the body, when, with a well-directed blow from my cutlass, I compmt ly ..ior t 4 the tendons of the foot, and he I instantly feh, with a dreadful souse and horrific growl, rho blood spouting up as if impelled from a jet ; he rose again somewhat tardily, and limping round the tree with up turned eyes, kept tearing oil :lie Lark with his tusks. However, watching my opportunity, and killing down ' wards, I sent a ball from my revolver with such WIWI effect , immediately behind the head, that he dropped ; and my nerves being now rather more composed, 1 leisurely distn huted the rem sing live balls in the most vulnerable parts of his carcase. I now yielded myself to fate, expecting the next In would consign me to eternity ; and was so completely robbed of conwiousness I did not observe how the Nis was got over. When I was able to draw a full breath I saw we had attained our greatest eminence, and though we had a little more room for descending, it was so steep, the only mode of getting down was by sliding on the breech. This was fine fun for the mules, who are perfectly at home in such places, and actually seemed to enjoy the terrors of the' horses, as I have seen boys ridicule the apprehensions of their more timid companions; fur when mine would essay a cautious slide, the imp behind would cast himself off with such reckess abandonment, tis to come on top of us in a few Lards, his fore-feet on my shoulders, indulging in a wu•• r pinch at every pause. As we descended, however, both man and horse got :reassured, and I felt myself per- fectly at ease, when my horse, to make up f or a l ung arrear ofjoking and nipping, sent out his heels with a whizz that put an end to the game fur the present. It wits it trying' half-hour, and I tho not think I could be bribed by all the' gold the mules could carry to ride over the same track again. The second shall be ludicrous: • PRAIKIE RUPPER. - But I mint not omit mentioning rather a ludicrous inci el: t which occurred List night iu the dark, when Mr. ‘, to quiet the pinehings of hunger, thrust his hand into the jerked meat sack for a piece of dried beef, and nulled out what "'Karr,' to him a good junk, which, after gnawing and tugging at for a long time without getting any toothsome bits, he brought to the light in my tent to cut into ~trip. better a.laiited for ma.tication, when, to his groat dis may, lie t*.iund that he had Leen hiring and chewing one of the old sweaty mocmoins 1 purchased from the filthy Pawnee, that, by some means or other, found its way amongst the meat—l strongly suveet by the agency of some mischievous wag, who did not think proper to reveal himself in the face of Mr. foaming vengeance, which was of a very threatening character, and alarmingly iiirgravated by the universal laughter that followed the coscry. Arrived at California, the party spent a novitiate of three days among the Chilians and Mexicans of tVeber-et eek, and atterwards split up into sections to pursue their separate aims. Mr. Kelly chose to ram ble from oint to point, and observe the various gold fields, and the different modes of working. Ilis ac count of the Americans at the diggings is anything hut complimentary; their cunning, fraud, and brutal violence perpetually alternating to victimise the Ger man and English emigrants. Of the morality of one when dealing with Indians, he gives the Mllowing illustration : By this time I saw the muscular system totally relaxed, on I de•cended with confidence, and found him quite dead, and myself not is little enervated with the excitement and the effects of my wound, which bled profusely from the temple; SO . much so, that I thought an artery was nip tared. I bound up my head as well as I could, loaded my revolver anew, and rctured for my rifle ; but as evening was approaching, and my mule gone, I had little time to survey the dimensions of my fallen foe, and no means of packing much of his flesh. I therefore hastily hacked off a few ,teaks from his thigh, and hewing off one of his hind feet as a sure trophy of victory, I set out toward., the trailing-post, which I reached about midnight, my friend and jay truant mule being there before me, but no horses. I exhibited the foot of my fallen foe in great triumph, and described the conflict with due emphasis and effect to the e onpany, who arose to listen; after which I made a transfer of the flesh to the traders, on condition that there was not to be any charge for the hotel or the use of the mule. There was an old experienced French trapper of the party, who, jading from the sire of the foot, set down the weight of the bear at 1,500 lbs., which, he said, they frequently overrun, he himself, as well as Colonel remont's exploring party, having killed several that came to 2,000 lbs. lle :Wished me, should I again be pursued by u bear, and have no'. other means of escape, to ascend a small-girthed tree, which they cannot get up, for not having any central joint in the four-legs, they cannot climb any with a branchless stem that does not fully fill their embrace ; and in the event of not being able to accomplish the accent before my pursuer overtook me, to place my back against it, when, if it and I did not constitute a bulk capable of filling his hug, I might have time to rip nut his entrails before he could kill me, being in a most favourable posture for the operation. They do not generally use their mouth in the destruction of their victims, but, hugging them closely, lift one of their hind-feet, which are armed with tremendous claws, and tear out the bowels. The Frenchman's advice relicts rationally enough, and is a feasible theory on the art of evading unbearable compres sion ; hut, unfortunately, in the haunts of that animal those slim juvenile saplings are rarely met with, and a person closely confronted with such a gri.zly vis-d-ris, is not exactly in a tone of nerve for surgical operations. After enduring great hardships in this journey, the party returned to Sacramento, which had greatly extendedits limits during his five month s ' ab sence . He is satisfied, however, that the precocious start of the city will not be sustained, but that the second-rate great cities destined to arrive at eminence in Cali fonda, will be higher up on the river, and nearer the THE •NTRIC %X AND SHP. INDIAN. I saw three Californian Indians come into one of those places while I was resting there, to buy a bottle of spirits, ' of which they are pasmonately fond; when the host better than half tilled a bottle with alcohol, making up the residue with water, fur which he charged them three dollars; and afterwards, taking the seak to weigh their dust, put in the quarter ounce weight, which I know was above the standard, and kept that full quantity in payment, thus robbing those ignorant creatures in the three branches of that simple transaction; first, giving them half water;' secondly, putting in a four &liar weight to get three dol lars; and, thirdly, having the said weight twenty-five per rent. above par ; in addition to which, he charged a most unconscionable price for an abominable compound. As soon as they went out he turned to me and said, " I reckon you smoked bow I sarved them at B— out." To which I nodded. " You know," he continued, "no Christian man is bound to give full value to those infernal' red-skins; they are onsotfisticated vagabones, and have no more bissnis with money than a mule or a wolf; they've no religion, an' tharfire no consciences, so I deals with them accordic:." " But,” I replied, not caring to get into an ethical controversy with so undiluted a reprobate, " I be lieve you missionaries have already begun to enlighten them, and are making preparstioas on a large scale to con vert and bring them into the Christian fold." "No doubt they have," he said ; " but it is time enough for men in trade to encourage them when they learn the truths of the gospel:* Mr. Kelly saw the society of California in its nascent state. He says of the greatest attractions of the town : ----- From Sacramento Mr. Kelly proceeded to San Francisco, whose harbour, streets, hotels, gaming houses, and cock-pits he describes with varying minuteness.

It will be remembered by those who have followed this story up to the close of the April number, that Mrs. Sandbovs had ex changed her husband's " inexiwessibles," US Mr. ol , • AlayneW . n ,og.taer with f.:rty P , sllllt l as Lank notes and her own marriage certihcate in the pockets, for a pot of mignionette and a couple of cut roses." This bargain is nut only a pecuniary loss of a serious character, but serves, by dex terous turns of the plot, to bulge both Mr. and Mrs. Sandboys in a station-house, and to achieve for their pour family an ignominious expulsion front their lodgings. If we are to judge these matters atter the fashion of Quete let, to measuir t hem bythedeflned laws of probability, of course they must be set aside as utterly and truly ridiculous ; while, on the other hand, if we are to accept them as pure inuiginings, then follows the point for critical consideration how tar the artist has displayed the power of realising fiction. The "Arabian Nights" are accepted as purely fictitious, and altogether without foundation in human probabilities ; but then here the master realises his imaginings—gives them tho VW/Ms/a /dance which constitutes their value and their charm, and which enables the writer to set aside the conventionalisms and the laws that govern men. He interprets human nature from its great sources, and his splendid insight teaches hint to interpret it aright. In the instance before us we have a strange jumbling of the impossible with the common distortion of every-day life— humorously distorted it is true, but nut the less 1,..,ff t . 0 .; ‘ ,.. t o t h e literary 64;n 5Q on that account. As it would be tasteless and offensive to introduce a pattern clergyman into a burlesque, so it is jarring to find characters whom we recognise about us, and whose portraits are carefully and modestly limed., thrown into grotesque attitude and situa tions. The actors and the scene do not harmonise— we have Kembie in the parts of Wright. This error in execution is the more to be regretted, since the work contains passages of much graphic . power—but, it must be said, they are jewels set m very base metal. However,those who love a hearty laugh will buy the " Adventures of the Sundboys," and hold thitt cheap at the price asked.

After considerable difficulty, a hill was discovered posted in it cheesetuongrer's window, announcing that " Any nunther of ladies or gentlemen nosy be aceom mudated with apartments fur a limited period, in a healthy si tuation, within a Gil. ride of the Great Exhibition.

On In r re turn, she informed Mr. Sandboys that she thought it would be the " very thing" for them. The lodging was close to Wimbledon-common, ut an establishment fur young ladies, where the Easter vacation had kin extended to is month, in honour of the opening .if the Great Exhibition. Mies Wtowita herself was at prevent staying, on n visit, with ono of her pupils in the antropolis . ,. und Mrs. Wewits had very properly thought it a pity to allow so large a house, making up, as it did, upwards el sixty beds, to remain unoccupied, justlit a time when to many strangers were wanting a 'dim to put their head it. The next day Mrs. Sandboys made an excursion to \Vim !gigaton, and came back to town delighted with the " ladies' establishment." Everything was so scrupulously clean, — the bed-futuiture and the boards were rea white as the sour milk gill opposite their window at Buttermere ; and tho whole place was so airy and Iseautifully ventilated, that she believed Johhy might have flown his kite in the principal bed-ngunt. Tom Vol terms were so moderate, and the lady so obliging—sits really thought she was one of the nicest old bodies she had betn for many a long day ;—altogethcr. aim was quite in love with the place, and everything and everybody about it. She haul arranged, she said, to go in the very next day for really, that spiteful old thing of a Mrs. to se ukell did make the house so uncomfortable, that the sooner they got out of her power the better. The part closes with an imaginary description of the crowds of the Ist of May. Mr. Cruikshanre drawing of the opening of the Exhibition, although a wonderful concentration, and a beautiful specimen of etching, partakes of the defixts we have pointed out in the letter-press—it is a jumbling of the literal with the imaginative; the building, fur instance, being drawn with a huge dome instead of the tran bept. In conclusion, the Sandhoys are worth know , ing, as amusing adventurers, although not so eels iienlly presented as we howl to find them.

Once in the body of the market, Canty had time to look well about him, and a curious sight it was—perhaps one of the moat curious in all London. lie had never heard, never' dreamt of there being such a place. A greater Inhtle and eagerness appear to rage among the buyers of the rofu‘o of London, than among the traders in its must valuable com modities. Here, ranged on long narrow wooden benches, which ex tended front one side of the market to the other, and over which sloped a narrow,eavea-like roofing, that prolcual suf ficiently forwardonly to shelter the sitter from the rain, were to be seen the many merchants of the streets—the buyers of hareskins—the bone-grubbers and the rag-gatherers-- the " bluey-hunters," or juvenile purloiners of lead—the bottle-collectors—the barterere of crockery-ware for out 'clothes—the flower-swoppers—the umbrella-menders—and; all the motley fraternity of petty dealers and ehapmen. hitch had his store of old cluthes—ur metal—or booth—or rags—or bonnets—or hats—or bottles--or hareskin.s--or um brellas, spread out in a heap before him. There sat a barterer of crockery and china, in a bright red plush waistcoat and knee breeches, with legs like balus trades, beside his half-etnptiesl basket of " stone-ware," while at his feet lay piled the apparently worthless heap of rags and tatters, for which he had exchanged hi., jugs, and cups, and basins. A few yards from hint was a woman done up in a coachman's drab and many-caped box-coat, with a pair of men's cloth boots on her feet, and her limp-looking straw bonnet flattened down on her head, as if with repeated loads, while the ground near her was strewn with bare-- skim, sonic old and so still that they seemed frozen, and the fresher ones looking shiny and crimson as tinsel. Before this man was a small mound of old cracked boots, dappled with specks of mildew—beside that one lay a hillock of Imbed out light waiscuats, and yellow stays, and straw-bonnets, half iu shreds. Farther ou was a black-chinned and lantern. ' jawed bone-grubber, clad in dirty greasy rugs, with his wallet emptied on the stones, and the bones and bits of old iron and pieces of rags that he had gathered in his day's search, each sorted into different piles before him; and as he sat waiting anxiously for a purchaser, he chewed a piece of m himo o n ul his dy pie -crust, that one part athehaa of perceived some well-known tinker behind a heap of old battered saucepans or metal teapots, side by side with an the picked E. up h w or e had wu g t i o ve be n embrella meads; in front of whom lay a store of whalebone ribs and sticks. In another quarter might be seen the fa miliar face of some popular peep-showman, with his " hack show" on the form on one side of him, while on the other were ranged the physic phials and wine bottles and glass 7 / "~ ~i UNITED STATIL and ing 417 ind n iv b. •,eal wah p.us t of I. ieh • riul ued. ut ‘‘'Pe .1 to in IC Ui ft el rctM lion riot :n -t hu the om heir 'pie tam rto t:an aa +ad but u•Il at
