A NOVELTY fbr nut spproaching season is in
171 preparation to which a distinguishing lISSIVIO has not yet been
!Mt which the inventors, Messrs. SY car recommend
as eras of the most useftil, warm, comfortable, and graceful artfeles
of gentlemanly attire ever produced. Specimens can be seen at 114,
116, and 120, Regent,street, and 22, Cornhiil, as also TIIE TREBLE
Garment, or PALETOT, called TILE NICOLL, which retains all the
charaAeristics of the famed Paletot (registered 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 65)
ht its exterior, and has the additional advantages of being convertible
from a warm to a light Overcoat, or vice versa, at the pleasure of
the wearer, or as the mild or cold nature of the weather may re-
quire. This garment must be seen and worn to be properly appre-
ciated ; it will be found, perhaps, the best preservative of health in
this variable climate. THE NICOLL has been secured by Royal
Letters Patent in ENGLAND, IRELAND, SCOTL AND, and the
COLONIES; it can, therefore, only be purchased in the country, or
abroad, of Messrs NICOLL'S (the patentees) recognised AGENTS,
and in LONDON only of themselves, viz., at 114, • 116, 1110,
REGENT-STREET, and 22, CORNHILL.

one one hundred pound note in adorning with flowers, and
shrubs, and forest trees, this only possible airy resource
for the indigent, pent up, Sunday emancipated son or
daughter of labour? It will not only gratify but
humanize the million, as the contemplation of floral
nature can soften neglected minds, and raise their souls
to rational devotion. Possibly, like other appeals to
officials, this may be :Turned; and, not beirg an employe,
it may even be said—" What is that to thee:" neverthe-
less, again it is repeated, on the principlo that what con.
earns the public is everybody's business, and of the oft-
repeated maxim," /Whit ulienum ;Oa put° qui sit;" &c.—

Government. The right or suffrage wes to be ex-
tended to all free white male citizens of the United
States, after six months' residence in the state.
13anks of discount were to be prohibited, and banks
of deposit were to be strictly protected. The boun-
dary agreed upon includes all Alta California, hut an
effort would be made to confine it to the Sierra Ne-
vada on the east. The districts had been arranged ita
the following. order ;-1. San Diego, Los Angelus,
Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo ; 2 Monterey
and San Francisco; 3. San Julit and Sonoma ;
4. Sacramento and San Joaquin.
The Legiilature was appointed to convene in De-
cember next to elect senators to. Congress, and to
proceed to the complete formation of the State Go-
vernment.
A dispute had aii.en between the Government of
the Sandwich Islands and the French Consul, M.
Dillon. This gentleman had for some time been at
loggerheads with the Government. The arrival of
a French frigate and a war steamer at Honolulu in-
duced,M. Dillon to make certain demands upon the
Government, threatening them with force in case of
non compliance. The demands, as near as we can
learn, were—
" 1. A reduction of duties on brandies and liquors of
one-half of all such duties as have been collected since
18 46. 2. The same rights to Catholics and their schools
as arc grunted to Protestants. 3. The repeal of a law
which compels whale ships importing liquor for sale to
pay port charges. 4. The remission of a fine imposed
upon some captain of a whale ship. There were 5.011,0
minor demands relative to redress and satisfaction for in-
dignities and insults offered to the French republic."-
These demands were made, and three days allowed
for the Government to comply or refuse. The King
being absent, the Admiral waited until his return,
when the Government, refusing to comply with the
demands, the French troops landed and took possession
of the, fort. ' No resistance being. offered, the French
rsixiiitietliiiid: threw from the ramparts the guns of the -
fort, destroyed the ammunition and public stores, and
took possession of all the Hawaiian vessels that were in
port. The Hawaiian flag was lowered and the French
hoisted. After the quiet possession of the fort
for three days the French .abandoned it,
and retired on board their vessels, which
shortly afterwards left the port, taking with
them M. Dillon and family, who intended returning
to France via New York. The British Consul.
General and the American Consul protested against
the action of the French forces; the former offered
his services as mediator, but was refused. The
general impresion was that M. Dillon had exceeded
his powers.

The advices from California extend to the Ist ult.
From various newspapers we extract the most inte-

the yield of gold, &c. •
"Discoveries have been made which almost induce us
to believe that the wth.le country, from San Diego to
Cape Mendocino, from the Pacific to the topmost ridge of
the Nevada, and heaven knows how much further east-
ward, has been completely seasoned and spiced with the
yellow grains. News reached San Francisco of a large
`placer' having boon found on Trinity River—a stream
which sues in the Coast Range and empties into the
Pacific opposite the head of the Sacramento valley.
The story was soon verified by intelligence from tLe
diggings on the American Fork, which stated that the
diggers were leaving iu large bodies for the Trinity

" Near the Mission of San Antonio, situated among
the Coast M.,untains, sixty miles south of this, a wash-
ing of considerable richness has been discovered. At

the last accounts, a number of people were working
there, with fair success, and traders are beginning to
send their teams in that direction. Gold is said to exist

in small quantities near the Mission of Carmel, only four
miles from this town, and, in fact, there is every geolo-
gical indication of it. That San Francisco itself is built
on a placer, lam well satisfied. To my certain know-
ledge, boys have picked 4 dolls. and 5 dulls. in a few
hours from clay dug 30 feet below the surface, in sink-
ing a well. The story of Mr. Harrison, the collector,

COAIMERCIAL IN TELLIGENCE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—The money market continues
to be in a sound and wholesome cuodition. The decline
in foreign exchange has entirely put a stop to the export
of sp.: tie. The receipt per Empire City, on Sunday last,
of about 800,000 dolls. in gold. with the certainty of
large receipts thence monthly, hate given confide-nee to

magnificent discovery is chat recently made upon the
rancho of Co:oncl Fremont, on the Mariposas River. It
is uothing loss than a vein of gold in the solid rock—a
hoha fide mine, the first which has been found in Cali-

furnia. Whether it was first detected by a tarty of
Sonomans or by the company which Colonel Fremont
organized last spring, and which has since been work-
ing in the same locality, is a disputed point, though
I hclielo the credit is due to the latter. At any rate
the gold is there, and in an extraordinary abundance.
I saw some specimens which were in Colonel Fre-
mont,'s possession. The stone is a reddish quartz, tilled
with rich veins of gold, and far surpassing the speci-

Li( xchauge there has be en a fair business done in

foreign for this s!earner, but at much lower rails, the
market closing flatly. We quote bills on London, 9+ to
lq per cent, for the principal busipess, and even at lower
rates slabs have been made; France, sf. 234 a. P) St. 25:.;

We Ip.ve no materiel chance to notice in the stock
mat ket. Tne transactions in prominent securities since
the departure of the Europa have ist-en to :air sxtent,
with an upward tendency in prices. United States'
Sixes of '67 end '6B continue in request for Tr mittances
at 114 to 114+. United States' Sixes of '6B with Cou-
pons, Lowtv,r, command 116 to 1161. Inv: spirt-pis are
also made in the Sixes of '56 at 108 to 108 i; in '62, at
1111 to 1121; and in the Five per Cents. of 't3, at 102
to 102 k. New Yerk State Stocks are in demand, but
cannot be procured to any extent at quotations.
There has been quite a speculative movement of late
in Pennsylvania Fives; it is the general impression that
the usual deduction from the interest on these bonds for
slf.-te tax will be abolished at the approaching session W.'
the.L•gi•dature. There appears to be no doubt that the
next report of the treasurer will be highly satisfactory.
The Public Works have yielded 67,000 dolls. more than
last year to the same period. The revenue from colla-
teral and other taxes have also improved so much that
the state has been enabled already to purchase 250,000
dolls. of her own stock. It is sincerely to be hoped that
the Legislature will take this step at once, and thereby
thaw Pennsylvania securities upon a leiel with those of
ht r sister states. Alabama Bonds have beep taken pri.
veto:), for some time past, and 77 has been paid for
Dollar Fives; Sterling Sixes are offered at 90. Ohio
Sixes are without transactions of impertance, and remain
firm.
Cotton—From the departure of the Europa to the re-
ception of the Ilibernia's favourable accounts our mar-
ket was quiet, but then au advance of ka. to 11. was
obtained, which, however, owing to the disposition of
holders to realise, was subsequently lost, the market rc-
marling steady until the arrival of the Cambria, velasn
an advance of ic. was again established, but this was in
turn lost, holders still being free sellers; our quotations,
therefore, as revised, stand almost precisely as ou the 33
instant, the date of our notice of the market fur the
steamer Europa. The total receipts at all the shipping
ports are 281,191 bales against 344,636 to same dates
last year—a decrease this season of 63,445 bales. The
total foreign export this year is 141,029 bales less than
last, say 120,953 bales decrease to Great Britain, 6 121
decrease to France, 11,145 decrease to North of Europe,
and 2,810 decrease to other foreign ports. The ship-
ments from Southern to Northern ports are 11,801 bales
more this season than last; and there is an increase in
stock of 49,563 bales. The tales for the week end, d
Friday, the 9th, were 8,800 Ll(s ; and since our lust,
7,200, as follows:

wens brought from N9rth Carolina and Georgia. Some
stones picked up on the tap of the quartz strata, without
particular selection, yielded 2 oz. of gold to every 251 b.
Colunel Fremont informed me that the vein had been
traced for more than a mile. The thickness on the
surface is two feet, gradually widening as it descends,.
and showing larger particles of gold. The dip down-
wards is only about 20 degrees, so that the mine can be
worked with little expense. These are the particulars
first given me when the discovery was announced.
Still more astonishing facts have just come to light.. A
geologist, sent out to examine the place, arrived here
last night. He reports having traced the vein a distance
of two leagues, wish au average breadth of 150 feet. At
oue extremity of the mine he found large quantities of
native silver, which he calculates will fully pay the ex
pens© of setting up machinery and working it. The
ranche upon which it is situated was purchased by Col.
Fremont in 1846 from Alvarado, former governor of
the territory. It was then considered nearly worthless,
and Colonel Fremont only took it at the moment of
leaving the country, because disappointedin obtaining
another property. The discovery has mliale a great
sensation throughout the country; yet it is but the first
of many such. The Sierra Isleleda is pierced in every
part with these priceless veins. which will produce gold
for centuries after every spot of earth from base to sum-
mit shag have been turned over and washed out.
"So much for the gold. in other respects the country
is tolerably quiet ; speculation in lots, though still
going on, having assumed a more cautious char ter.
San Francisco, Stockton, Sacramento City, and! San
Joe 6 still maintain their value. Benicia lots are rather
dull, and have slightly fallen, while Colonel Stevenioa's
New-York-of-the Pacific, with its awkward and absurd

title, does not seem to bo thought of. A town nsmed
Vernon, at the mouth of Feather River, is rising rapidly
to nutice, and another is said to be springing up on
nity River. Many persons have made large lortunds by
baying up lots at a lucky time and selling them still
more luckily. A case was told me of a young man who
last fall borrowed money euou4l2 to ray his passage from
the Sandwich Islands to San Francisco, and who is ❑ow
on his way home with 80,000 dulls. made in this manner.
Three or tour gentlemen, who came up in the Panama,
have already made 20,000 dolls. by similar operations.
A friend of mine, who shipped lumber from New
York, to the amount of 1,000 dolls:, sold it .here
for 14,000 dolls. Houses which cost 300 dolls. fell

readily for 3,000 dolts., and the demand is con-
stantly increasing. At least 75 hou►-s have been
import,el from Canton, and are put up by Chinese
carpenters. Nearly all the chairs in private families are
of Chinese manufacture, and thero arc two restaurants

in the town kept by ICtng-sung and Wang-tong, where
very palatable chow chow, curry, and tarts, are served
up by the Celestials. Washing is stills dolls. a dozen,
and the consequence is large quantities of soiled linen
are sent to the antipodes to be puritied. A vessel just
in from Canton brought 250 dozen, which were sent out
a few months ago; another from Sandwich Islands
brought 100 dozen, and the practice is now becoming
general. San Francisco is, iu fact, more metr,politan
in its character than any other Frt in the world. Its
trade with all parts of the Pacific is rapidly increasing.
The overland emigration is pouring into the country in
a full tide. The reports which reached here of distress
nu the routes, and the certainty that many of the emi-•
grant's would need aid before reaching the settlements,
caused a public movement in favour of raising sup-
plies to send out on the routes. Private individuals
and companies contributed largely, and General Riley,
on bring applied to, promptly give a carte blanthe to
Major Canley and Captain Kane, of the Q.M. depart-
ment, to furnish all the assistance in their power.
Several hundrLd pack mules, under the charge of
competent officers, have been sent to Vallecitos, at
the edge of the great dev rt, and to the sink of •Hum-
boldt's river, in the great boson, the places where emi
grants will mast require aide. Word has reached us
that many waggons have stopped et the latter place,
uLable to proceed further. I have beard of no such
distress on the northern route Si on the southern. The
emigrants in the north, so far es I learn, have not been
molested by the Indians, while the hostilities of the
Yumas and Maricapas, at the Colorado crossing, have
already cost the companies on the Gila the loss of seve•
ral lives.

" As to prices, all mining tools are high, as ate also
all articles upon whieli'labour has been performed here.
Picks, 5 dolls.; pans, 5 dolls.; erailes for washing gold,
three feet long, worth 2 dolls. in the States, sell here !or
40 dolls.; fl mar from 8 dolls. to 10 dolls. per hundred ;
pork, 50 dolls. per hundred ; eoffte, 18 dolls.;, board,
21 dolls. per: week, or 1 dolt. 500. per meal, with
the privilege of sleeping under the nearest tree unoccu-
pied. At the mines, s,ixty miles distant, prices are
doubled, and of some things trebled ; brandy, 2 dolls.
per bottle. At -the mines they are making on an average
an ounce of gold per -day. One man who arrived here
this month nestle in two weeks 25,000 dolls., and has
gone to S.in Francisco to take passage to the States.
Labour is in proportion to the produce of the mince,
,ranging from
.18 dolls. to 8 per day.
Vessels cut-Ali:me to arrive at San Francisco from the
United States. When I left there, two weeks ago' 102
vessels had arrived out of the 250 which sailed from
different ports iu the Llt.ited States during the winter
and spring. Si. co then they aro beginning to crowd in
more rapidly. I was this morning informed, though not
from the most reliable authority, that 45 bad arrived in
two days. The harbour presents for miles an unbroken
forest of masts—ships from every nation and c country
here, idle and worthless, with no prospect of ever kavirg
--L-many must go down at their anchor, for there are
not men enough unemployed to work the 20th part of
them. The men will leave; there is no way of detaining
them for duty on board; the naval force has been
weakened by desertion, and there is no human effort or
possibility to prevent the 'custom' of deserting. C;:m.
mender Jones has barely force enough on board to form
a crow, much less to tender assistance to merchantmen.
There are yet scores of vessels in port that have been
months endeavou ing to discharge—some have no con-
signers, others too many—many have captains, while
numbers are without there, and without use for the com-
modity-. We have many converted into storehouses,
hotels, lodging-houses, and hospitals. This is the only
phce in the woe 1:1 where Jack forgets the sanctity of the
foreoastk."
