The more plentiful 1t becomes, therefore, the
cheaper it will become; while the value of houses,
merchandise, and property of all kinds, which are
required for the subsistence and luxury of mankind
and which alone constitute real wealth, will be Of
the same intrinsic value as they were before,
although itmay take twice. or perhaps three times,
much of the precious metals to purchase them,
under the new state OF things, as 1t did under the
old. 1t is evident, therefore, that those who take
time by the foreock, and purchase property neces-
sary for mans and wants, at the present alu-
alton Of gold, would, in the course of few years,
far at least the accumulation of gold goes, be
vast gamers by the operation. Others, however,
will be losers; for example, the annuitants in
England, who receive three or three and half
per cent on money invested IN the funds. That
amount of interest would, in the event of these
discoveries in California being as great as they
are represented to be, reduce them from compare
tive afiluence to poverty for gold, becoming more
plenty, would become cheaper, and seven per cent
would be then no more valuable in exchange for
the commodities of life than three and halt per
cent is now.
These are some of the views which the accounts
from California have suggested to our minds. AS
for the immediate effects which they will have
upon the United States, there can be little doubt
we think of their being favorable, and that a sur
prising stimulus will be given to every branch of
our industry.

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN FRANCE The
election Of the first President Of the French re-
public, by universal suffrage, took place yester-
day, and In about three weeks we shall know who
has been selected as the executive of that great
country, for the next four years. The result will no
doubt be looked for with great interest. Our
readers will find IN to-day's paper, Cavaignac's
manifesto, he being, as our readers are aware, one
of the prominent candidates for that high Office.

The CHoLERA.-The approach and probable
prevalence OF the Asiatic cholera is one of the
prominent topics Of the day. Will 1t become
epidemic How can it be guarded against
and what is the best mode of treatment, IN case of
attack ARE questions which are asked with more
than ordinary interest, by all classes and in all
places.
In reference to the first quere, all that can be
SAID is, that without doubt quite a number of
cases have occurred at Staten Island; and, as the
destroyer Is taking his walk round the world, it is
not improbable that we may be visited now, as we
have been before AS to the best mode of guard
ing against its ravages and preventing attack, it Is
generally conceded that persons should avoid a
change of diet provided they have heretofore lived
reasonably, and avoided dissipation. 1t is we'll
known that persons having been for long time
usedto an economical sea diet, are generally subject
to indisposition on their changing that for the more
varied and liberal accommodations OF the tables
on shore or, as seamen term 1t, the use of &c soft
tack" The stomach having long been accus-
toned to a peculiar use of Its offices, will not
submit with Impunity to change. A change being
made, temporary disorder follows, and, If the at
mosphere be infectious at the time, the functions
OF the skin are necessarily deranged, and the
physical system is IN imminent danger from the
injection likely to be inhaled into the lungs and
received through the pores. Hence the consis-
teacy OF wearing warm and clearly covering next
the skin; for instance, woollen under cl O thes,
changed frequently.
AS to the last queston-that concerning treat.
ment of patents-let quackery be eschewed, and
let no person fal to call the best medical advice
possible. No science has been more thoroughly
studied and better illustrated to Its real students.
than the science of medicine, and it is but req
sonable to suppose that the phenomena of disease
are more Ineligible to regular bred physicians
than to empires and adventures. No doubt MANY
lives have been lost by tnhing with disease, and
especially with epidemics. 1t may not be amiss
to state here, that 1t is generally conceded that
a garnet is preferable to basement, as being
naturally more dry, and therefore free from one of
the inducing carses to cholera.
| 1t will be seen by reference to our column of
city news, that the city authorities have COM
meuced in earnest to clean the streets, even the
Sabbath being devoted to this excellent work.
| The decrease In the number of cases at Ouaran-
tine, it is to be hoped, gives token of recession
of the scouree from our shores for the present. and
the frost, which must now soon come to purify the
atmosphere, may bring us a merclful exemption
from further visit Of the dreadful plague

Tn. Report OF the CHIEF of Police.

A few days since, his Honor Mayor Havemeyer
transmitted to the Common Council report of the
Chief of Police on the operations of the Police
Department for the last six months. 1t is curious
document and gives a perfect picture of the state
of society in this metropolis, as we'll as of the
workings of the new police system. The total
number of arrests during the period above named,
amounts TO the large number of fourteen thousand
two hundred and eight, as will appear by the fol-
lowing list, which we extract from the report:-
