A CALIFORNIA DAMPER.

We are told that Messrs. Savage &. Hawk
ms, gold assayers. &c. at I28 William St.,
have received lump of what was supposed
to be California gold, weighing % ounces
Troy weight, to be assayed. 1t was not.af-
fected by acids, but in the refining pot evapo-
rated 1t proved to be suiphuret cf iron. The
owner OF the article purchased it at San F fan-
cisco, where he paid 81 per ounce for i, in
merchandise. Messrs. 5. & II. say they
have received several specimens Of California
rocks to assay, but as yet they have received
no gold They are constantly receiving or
ders for testing acids to go to the gold region,
but say they have concluded that they can
mine gold faster in New York city.-N Y.
Ere. Post.
% The Tribune states that the lump OF
sulphuret of iron, assaycd by Messrs. S.&H.
was left by person totally unknown to them.

FALSE AND TRIE coin

We saw yesterday halfeagie, coined at
the Philadelphia Mint, from late deposit of
California gold dust. 1t had the true ring
lustre, and bore, as distinctive mark, the
letters, CAL over the head Of the eaglt;.
At the same time we were shown sample
OF the prepared spelter-the villaipous eoun-
tertelt got up to cheat the greedy adventures.
1t IS IN small grains and pieces resembling
scales, mixed with black sand, and would
readily be taken by the inexperienced, for the
genuine metal. When mixed with proper
ton OF the true gold washings, it would be
difficult to discover the cheat. We are told
that manufacturer in this city has received
an order for 700 lbs. of this worthless COM
pound, for the San Francisco market " !.
Tribune.
tB The Hartford Times states that
quantities of spelter solder have been sent 10
the Gold Regions on speculation. 1t IS one
OF the yilest cheats of the day. The game is
10 sell this base metal to the gold hunters, as
they arrive in California. Six: barrels. have
been sent out In one ship from New y ork.

THE PACHECO SLAVE CASE.

This case which has excited so much interest.
not only in Congress but throughout the country,
has at length been decided in favor of the heirs of
Antonio Pacheco, by the House of Representatives
voting (1o1 to 94) to pay the claim of the said
Pacheco, which amounts to $1,000.
five rightly understand this claim it is made
upon the following ground During the Florida
war the United States through Gen Jessup, hired
as 4 guide, the negro Lewis of Antonio Pacheco
Tor the sum of So per month. The expedition
proved unsuccessful, nearly every man was de-
stroyed, and Lewis is afterwards found among the
Indians, and claimed and held by them as a slave.
fairly captured in war. Pacheco sends his bill to
Congress for the sum OF $1,000 for the loss of the
slave, and by the above vote in the House of Rep
resentatives, the bill has been allowed. At the
taking of the vote, there were absent from the
House twenty-five from the North and ten from
the South OF the twenty-six Northern men who
voted for allowing the claim, we regret to say six
were wings! If the Government Of the United
States hired the said slave of his master, and he
(Lewis) either through his own treachery or the
fate of war. fell into the hands of the enemy. we
