70 JENNY LIND, the Swedish nightingale,
as she is sometimes called, will probably
come TO this country. Mr.. Barnum, of the
Philadelphia Museum, has offered her 81 900
per night, for 200 nights. tenny's swee,
voice is worth more than California gold
placer. TO sing to the tune Of $1,000, seems
ex,ravagant, yet il is mich less than she has
been receiving in Europe.

" CALroRNIA.-The news from the
gold regions, which will be found in ano-
thief column, Is mulch more encouraging
than by the previous accounts. The whole
country seems to be embedded with gold,
and Col. Fremont, it seems, has opened a
regular vein. Heretofore no original de-
posits had been found, the diggings having
been confined to the deposites Of dust where
It had been washed. We fear that Califor.
mia, like all other gold dregions, will be good
for little else than the gold it contains.

u We are much indebted TO some Of
our editorial brethen for the complimentary
manner in which they have noticed an
'lce Cream Freezer" invented by us. and
for which premium was recently awarded
at the Franklin Institute. The Readino
Gazette says. r.f a.ss.s-.i.
"We advise Mr.. MAssEK 10 sell out hi.
newspaper, and commence the Ice Cream
manufacture forthwith. All men have sio.
machs, IN common with other animals bnl
| only one in hundred has brains: and the
editor OF the american will find il much easier
and more profitable task 10 tickle The public
palate with Ice Cream, at a shilling a dose
than TO elighien the mind ofthat same public
with his newspaper"
We cannot, however, adopt the advice
of our friend of the Gazette. We have in.
vented the machinery as labor saving APP.
paratus for the ladies. The cream making
We shall leave for them and for others in
the business. And we NAV as well state,
that our agents Messrs Pro,ty & Barrett, OF
Philadelphia, will soon be able to supply
every part ofthe Union with the machines.
We think, however, that our friend does
injustice to his readers, and readers in gene
rail- A man who takes and pays for a
newspaper is not wholly destitute of brains,
and without handsome list of paying sub
scr'oers, we take il such paper as the
Gazette, could not long be sustained.

were but si9, 900 in circulation; and that

10 do violence 10 his person, and after his in
