Of events to which we have alluded. The trade
OF California, previous u this event, was limited
10 an occasional hide-drOgher or smuggler--her
exports 10 hides and tall0w, with now aud then
spriDkling OF specie. During the OCCUPATION
OF the country by the forces of the United States,
trade was better, the CONSUMPTION was increas-
ed, but, on on account OF no Export existing. the
p osperry OF the couutry was likely TO suffer Sc
rious check. Luckily, in June last, the gold pla.
Cera on the American Fork was discovered, and
the ease with which gold was procured soon az
iorded an export more than sufficient for all their
wants. Subsequently the treaty OF peace between
Mexico and the United States was ratified, aud
Upper California, gold and all, became part and
parcel OF the great American republic. Ct;ifornla
has presented an instance OF commercial Owta
une aua.d IN the annals OF the world; and the dis
cov-ry OF gold IN such abundance, is an event
which will exert mighty influence upon the pros
perIty OF commerce IN tins oceaa. dense pOpu-
aton will soon be- in California; and If AGRICULTURE
be neglected, large fleet OF vessels Will be re-
Qui ed To supply their wants.
The line of steamers v,a Panama, which are to
commence running in January next, will m AXE
California and Oregon near neighbors TO the gre4t
commercial cities OF the Atlantic coast. rail-
road has long been talked OF, and will doubtless
soon be commenced. Bustoa and st. Louis are al
ready connected by magnetic line, an exteas,oa
of which is already contemplated to the Pacific
coast. The expense of completing a llue from st.
LOns to the Pacific has been estimated at $500 00
and we confidently believe that Ia our day and ge-
neration both undertakings will be complIshed.

which this chain of events will exert upon the fu-
ture prosperity OF commerce in this ocean. Toe

30 little known, will soon be crowded with traders
every bay and isaud-every nook and corner,
Will be explored. The mighty wave OF emigration,
which Is now rolling towards the western shores
OF the American continent, will, sooner or later,
reach our shores. The geographical position OF
these Islands point to them as the West ladies of
the Pacific coast Before, however, any great ad.
vance can be made here. q different policy IN re-

Fulhllnent of a Dream.

A gentleman, Mr.. -, whose means
were rather limited, was on the point of purchas.
ing small property a farm, in which he intend
ed to invest his little capital. Before conclud-
ing the bargain, he went to visit some friends in
the country, whose advice or perhaps whose as
sistance, he might have required, While stay
ing with these friends, he dreamed, one night,
that he saw his deceased father standing by his
bedside, and that he heard him say, " My son,
you are making up your mind to purchase the
farm of -; if you do so you will be ruin
ed. THERE'S better opening for you. Return
Immediately to town, to our house. On the
chimney piece of the dining roomyou will find
letter awaiting you; the letter will contain an
offer of situation in the Island of -. 1t
will be to your advantage to accept that offer,
and to 60 abroad for few years" This dream,
as he naturally supposed it to be, made so deep
an impression on Mr.. Fs. mind, that he mention
ed it next day, to his friends, who Of course
