The DRAMATIc STARS IN TowN.-Mss Cushman
and Miss Davenport having gone TO Philadelphia,
the theatres are now to be made attractive by no.
velties and stars. Among the latter are Mr. Hud-
son and MIR. Buchanan. Mr.. Hudson has already
performed one week, and will conclude his engage
ment next Saturday night, when he will lsave for
England He is the best representative Of the Irish
gentleman now upon the stage, while the richness
Of his brogue, and the natural exuberance of his
spirits, admirably fit him for the personaton of the
more ludicrous phases Of Irish character. He has
shown, in the "Knight IF Arva," and in several
other characters, extraordinary talent and accom-
plisbmcnts. His vocal powers are brought into re-
QUESTION with rare skill; and when he gives an
Irish melody, il is like champagne poured over
rich puddng-a splendid and exhilaratins addition
to that which was before perfectly delicious. Mr..
Hudson's performances will be fully appreciated
this week, by admiring crowds. The Broadway
theatre ought not to have vacast seat
On Monday week, new candidate from the
South will appcar--the celebrated patron Of the
drama in New Orleans. Mr. buchanan made many
friends as an amateur; but constant practice has
now established him as a tragedian. Ills principal
forte lies in the lofi,st Shaksperan characters, in
which he has now rival. As American
actor, who has devoted years to study, he will
create a sensation-there being no little opposition
TO him, because lac has not been brought up ac-
cording to.tradition. We are cultivating American
actors now, we do other American productions !;
and we must give Mr.. Buc anan fair start for the
race. He may be the American tragedian. If he
passes the ordeal in safety, hs Southern fame will
be snnealed and made ire-proof in spite of the
flaming Of other stars. He must be warmly
welcomed at the Broadway theatre.

FExALxs IN CALroRsIA.-Ca california, in the first
year of it's exislense-for California can only be
said TO exist since the period of the discovery Of its
gold miAes-sould only reckon upos a very limited
number of the fair rex, who inhabited It's golden
cities and graced its fertile plains Ever since the
magic cry of the existence Iof inexhaustible gold
giiDes in California resounded throughout the world
thousands upon thousands of adven,urers, from
every quarter Of the habitabIe globe aured by the
welcome sound OF its summons, and lead away by
the pros poets of unheard-of wealth, which their
busy imagnstions conjnTed up in exaggerated form,
left with high hopes and expectations their cheerful
homes, and were waited 10 the golden regions on
the shores Of the Pscfc.
This vast tide Of emigration, however, which has
been constantly swelling the population of the Ell
Dorado Of the West since the discovery Of its rich
gold mines, has been exclusively of the male por-
ton of humanity The long and dangerous pass
age, the unculiivated and baIbarous condition OF
the country, the continual privations, hrdships
and tolls which are inevitable in an unpsopIed re-
gion, and their inapttude to the pick and the sho-
vel, have all contributed 10 deter the female por-
ion frem veuturng on such perilous expedition.
Since, however, the mode Of conveyance has been
greatly isciltaied and the general condition OF the
country assuming more orderly aspect, we have
observed the names of many ladies among the lists
Of passengers destined for California. But there
have been Jew indeed, and they seem to evince
manifest repugnance 10 embark for the golden re-
gons, for il with the utmost difficulty that Mrs.
Faruham could succeed in inducing half-a-dozen,
and these "antiques," TO accompany her on
her voyage thiiher II is true, that every steamer
carries few of the fairer sex but these are gene
rally married, who are accompanying their hus-
bands there, or whose husbands have been resi-
dent in California for some time. We expect,
however, that spinsfers win soon take the road,
and set out on trip to those fairy regions. They
will be able to make their fortune the re- better than
they would do here; and besides, their species being
few in number, they have every probability of being
caught soon, and returning not only with an indie
pendent fortune, but under the protection of low
ing husband.
Ii is to be wished that greater number OF
females would emgrate TO California than has
hitherto been the case. Their presence in the
state of society, il must necessarily exist there,
would be attended with incalculable results. By
their wonderful influence over the sterner sex,
they would soften down the rude propensities of
his nature they would thereby introduce order,
elevate society, and, in Q short time, would con-
vert California from state of barbarity into place
of civilization. They might increase churches
and diminish bells.

The Crops ar the West.

The rains Of the past few days have done meal
culable good to the growing crops. They have
been pretty general throughout Indiana Ohio and
Kentucky, so far as heard from. We have highly
favorable reports from Southern Ohio and Indiana
relative to Wheat and Oats, and the probability now
ia that there will be full average yield Of both The
weather is also very favorable for Corn, and 1t VIII
soon gain what it lost during the drought Tnere
will probably be some new Wheat ready Tor mar
ket about the middle of July, but none OF conse-
quence may be expected before the lst OF August
Cincinnati Price Current, June 10.
A writer in the Marshall (Mich Statesman
from Kalamazoo County, one OF the largest Wheat
growing Counties in the State, says: "Notwlth-
standing the great drouth, Wheat looks tolerably
well throughout the County"
The same writer adds;
"For a week past the farmers have been dispos-
ing of their Wool Considerable strife exists among
the buyers and prices range from % to 81 cts. AS
near as can Judge, should think there had al
ready been more Wool brought to market this sea
son than was brought in during the last two years"
We had the pleasure day or two since Of meet
ing a gentleman who had just returned from the
West. He says that there almost many
buyers as sellers of Wool at the West and the
enormous prices now paid for it has resulted from
the great competition exhibited among buyers.
Eastern manufacturers have their agents in almost
every market place, and they have their sub
agents scattered through the entire country. AL
most every merchant west at this time is buyer of
Wool, and the competition among them has caused
the large advance. Evening Journal.
The Rochester american says:
"Wool has sold very freely for the last week.
The price has been high, and there has been very
little disposition among farmers to hold on to the
clip. 1t is estim ated that seveneighths of the pre-
sent clip, in this region will be disposed Of by the
close Of the present week. The large lots are now
being purchased in the country. The medium
grades in small lots, sell from 25 to Csc. The bet
ter grades bring from IS to 40c and for some very
find and clean holders ask more"

A dispatch from Philadelphia says the Noun

The steamer Kennebeok went alongside and
took off her passengers to bring them to this city
The accident was caused by the carelessness or
