Itmatters not to you from what town in Cali
fornia write, nor the day Of the month-any
month or from any town in the "farthest west,"
hope will please you, and perhaps your read
ers The first and last rise of the Calfornians
in September, 1S46, was put down and ended in
January Of this year by Commodore Stockton
the revolt cost the natives and Americans the
lives OF some fifty men. Capt. Jose Maria Flores,
dubbed Gen. Flores, IN his own desf atches,
which made a flare up in the city of palaces
and poverty, informed the Mexican govern
ment that such Americans in California as
had not been killed, were being driven into the
"Mar Pacifca." Gen. Flores, therefore, tri-
umphed in Mexico as the third "Napoleon,"-
the second of that name of the west; Santa Anna
par excellence, being the first on the tongues of
his countrymen, 1t would be too much to say in
their eyes or thoughts. Flores was enabled to car
ry on the revolt against Com. Stockton by purcha-
and an English merchant in the Pueblo de los
Angeles, some $50, 900 worth OF goods at retail
prices, paying with his draft on the supreme
government OF Mexico for 100000; with these
habitants, and paid his men in dry goods. When
they would not take fair words, some agreed to
take the latter, if he would give an equivalent In
broad cloth-poco de un, y POGO de Ell otro fou
may ask HaQ not the spanish consul III Cdii-
fsrnia any other business here than to assist the
Californians in rising against the United States
We may hope he had. Commodore Stockton
paid no attention to him, or any other person
assisting the natives against his forces he was
well aware they would find it losing game, and
knew their empty pockets would curb them the
second time.
Most of the foreigners, old residents, and new
corners, are driving fourishing business in this
territory even many of the Californians are
exerting themselves to meet the coming and sure
effects but some very careful ones among the
foreigners yet hoard up the gold ounces, and
deny they have (habit is strong upon them)
waited for peace, and to be sure that Uncle Sam
has California, before they invest in ranches or
town lots and buildings; others have taken from
the alcalde town lots OF so varas square, Gone
hundred and fifty feeD at SIS (thc deed being
void if there is no house on 1t within twelve

varas, granted by the alcade in ls44, for SIS, are
now worth 500, the building, to save the lot,
being worth $50 or 100 water lots, of so varas,
