NEWS FROM CALIERNIA


The Baltimore Clipper Finishes letter
from Mr.. Fl. N. Harrisonto his bkthef IN
Baltimore dated San Francisco FEB. .,
which gives the following inteJstlng in
telligenee from the mines! i
New discoveries are being hade every
day, 1lmay say, within the lst month, not
outstanding the bad statef the weather
at the diggins, as they are sdlsd, new mines
have been discovered; sypassing all here
tofore in richness and fofusion and it is
said that in these ney places of deposite,
some have dug and yashed a thousand dol
lars in a day-andfh9 is not at alltim-
probable, wonderful, or surprising, as it
may seem. saw a piece of gold, mingled
with white stone, the other day, that weigh
ed about IS ounces, and was purchased by
a navy officer for $500. 1t was really a
curiosity, and as such intended for some in
stitute in the States. / have seen other
rare and beautiful specimens Of pure lump
gold of an oval form, the size of an egg ;
some of these have been lately despatched
to: the States. 1t would seem a strange
sight to you to go about in the different
stores, and see all dealing in this precious
~metal-the oddity of q leather pouch held
BY one person pouring out the dust into a
scale, and another with a spoon, nicely
balancing it. You seldom hear the ring of
coin /; gold dust is the circulating medium
although within the last month probably
more than $4,000 in coin have been
brought here from below, for the purchase
Of the dust, by Spectators. 1t is selling for
$l5 the ounce ; still the dust is the tender.

there has been but little digging at the
mines since the early part Of December;
but at some of the forks they have been
digging with great success. In about a
month hence the excitement will begin
with an increase of some 1900 new corners
Representatives of every natio. and they
are still coming, all bound for the mines
wives, children, and ALTO combat with
toll, sickness, hardships, and danger, to Sc
cure their fortunes. That they may get,
but with the loss of health to enjoy it. 1t
is strange to see what will be endured
what suffering will be encountered-for
the sake Of this tempting dust.
Within the last month upwards of 5Ou
strangers have arrived here, and are fit
ting out for the mines-and it is SAID that
numbers besides are on their way in differ
ent vessels from Valparaiso, Calloa, and
other ports. The town is literally crammed,
and every house, private and public, is full.
Where all get accommodated / do not
know; and if there are 10000 men on their
way from the States, as it is reported, it is
difficult to say villa, will be done. But one
thing that is fortunate, provisions are plenty
at present; that is, -four, pork, hams, cof.
fee, rice, and teas; but fresh meat and
vegetables are very scare at this time

RJAYNE'S EXPECTORANT.-This
medicine has already proved itself TO be
all that it has been recommended, by those
who have given it a fair test in this coun-
try, and the demand for it increases daily.
We have just heard Of an important cure
of Asthma, which has been effected by the
use Of it, in a neighboring town-the case
was that of a female who had for a long
time been under the care Of a physician but
had received no relief, and her case was
considered hopeless. As a last resort she
purchased a bottle OF DIR. Jayne's Expec-
'~torant, which caused her to expectorate
freely, gradually ceased her cough and is
rapidly restoring her to health. We have
no hesitation in saying that this preparation
of Dr.. Jayne for cure of coughs, colds influ-
enza, asthma, consumptions, &C., is the most
valuable medicine ever offered to the A"
.merican public. There is no quackery a.
bout it-Dr. Jayne is one of the most skill
full practising physicians in Pennsylvania;
and wherever his various preparations have
been thoroughly tested, he is looked upon
as a great public b~snefactor Somerset
(Me.) Journal
AZ Dyspepsia anu Liver Complaint may
be cured with certainty, and at a trifing ex-
pense, by taking every night, at bedtime.
two or three Of Jayne's Sanative Pills, and
a dose of either his Alternative or Vermifuge
three times q day. This treatment never
fails to cure.
WeR, We'll! I'm becoming bald, and can't
help it, is frequently expressed by those
whose Hair, like a false friend) is leaving
them. Now this is all a mistake; Jayne's
Hair Tonic, faithfully applied for a week,
will preserve the Hair from falling of, re-
move all dirt and dandrrE, prevent its be-
coming prematurely gray, cure sruptive dis
eases Of the scalp, and still more, by its con-
tinued use reclothe the head with neW and
beautiful hair.
