ACCOUNTS FROM CALIFORNIA
We have been shown private letters of late date
from the Pacific coast, which give some new and
exciting intelligence in relation to the stores Of
gold accommodating IN California. They state that
$4,000, 900 worth OF the dust at San Francisco,
waiting for transportation. The greater part OF il
will probably be taken by the mail steamer CALI
tornia. The English steamer Pandora carried
away 100000 In dust. Another letter completely
contradlcts the reports of disturbances at the
mining districts The writer states that excellent
order prevails, and there had been but two or three
petty depredations since operations commenced IN
the region.-NeW Orleans Crescent, jan. %.

tiers in which she Is living, while waiting the ar
rival of vessel for California, and makes not the
slightest reference to unusal crowd of adven-
tuners. From this we may infer that the former
were greatly exaggerated.-Ntw Orleans Crescent,
