$152,984 was on English account. The /lowa is
uninteresting.
The crops never looked more promising, and the
markets were crowded with the finest vegetables.
Tho mining interest was in a flourishing condition.
The "dry diggings" were abundantly supplied
with water, and miners were doing well almost
everywhere. Little was said about quartz mining,
but from Grasu Valley and other mills were re-
ceived favourable accounts of alterations in this de-
partment of mining. . _ .

Business continues excessively dull. The Kern
River humbug was effectually exploded. The San
Diego Herald reported that gold diggings had been
found at Santa Ysabel, in San Diego county.
An act to levy a capitation tax of 50 dollars on
every Chinaman arriving in the State has been

larger than it ever was before.
The Sandwich Islands Legislature had been
opened.

-King Kamehameha, in his speech alluded to the
institution of Chief Justice Lee to Washington as
being highly important. A large amount of forged
bills had been put in circulation by Messrs. Swan
and Clifford, ship chandlers ; but before one was
protested the parties had 'left the island. • Several
British and French war vessels were at Honoluld,
consisting of the frigate President, the Brisk (13
guns), English screw-steamer, Commander Alfred
Curtis, and sloops of war Dido and Rattlesnake.
The Monarch, 84, guns, Captain George Patey, is
the New . British flag-ship, and was expected
shortly to arrive. The French frigate Alceste, 50
guns, was to leave Callao on the 14th of March for
Honolulu, and a French corvette was to follow the
Alceste from France, when Admiral Fourichart,
the new Commander-in-Chief on the Peelle, was
expected daily to arrive at Honolulu ; it was ex-
pected they would proceed northward, probably to
join the expedition against Petropaulovski.
Ha,vannah dates to the 23d nit. had been re-'
ceived. The Captain-General had returned from
his tour of official inspection in the provinces,
highly pleased with the result. The United States
frigate Constitution, which had arrived there after
a two years' cruise on the coast of Africa, had only
lost two men out of a crew of 500, one of whom
was accidentally drowned, and the other died of
pulmonary consumption. The low rate of morta-
lity is unprecedented.
The health of the island was good ; the market
for sugar was quiet.

Theincrease'd duty on sugars in Great Britain
had not materially affected Prices. The stock in
Havannah was about 200,000 boxes, and at Ma-
tanzas about 40,000 boxes. Molasses were in brisk
demand, at full rates, holders demanding an ad-
vance. Advices from Mexico the 19th ult. state

vancing upon Zamora, while the insurgents were
posted in force ; his army, however, had been
separated by the
_skilful mauceuvering of his op-
ponents. It was reported that the Government
troops had gained a victory at Guanaxuato.
Later intelligence from the Great Salt Lake re-
ports that prosperity prevailed throughout the
Talley.
The election held to fill vacancies in the Legisla-
lature for Kansas had resulted in favour of the
pro-slavery candidate.
Accounts from the plains, received through vari-
ous channels, agree that the indian tribes were
assuming a very hostile attitude against the whites;
the combination of the Sioux Indians for this ob-
ject was confirmed.
