CALIFORNIA; F,ny-DolIar Pieces.

We had also the pleasure OF seeing yesterday fifty
dollar gold piece, the coinage OF California, which is
beautiful and unique specimen OF the ability OF that nan
sister OF our coniederacy. II is octagonal in its form
and on the front bears the following inscription United
States Of America, $50 Thous. so d. c." On the re.
verse is rayod circle "a starr and around the edges

This ingot. which is stamped at the assayers ONCE IN
San Francisco will not legally pass as currency because
there is yet no law authorize it. But there Is no ques
ton Of its circulating freely in California and many other
places It is also in contemplation TO strike ngo's OF one

il will be proporiionally thicker 1.-The ingots OF hve
hundred and one thousand dollars will be in form par.
aleosrams about five inches long and one and three
quarters in width and varying in thickness, the smaller
being about three ienths OF an inch, and the larger six
tenths"
The coin is heavy its appearance; but taking II as an
evidence OF the progress OF art in California, we cannot
entertain the least doubt OF her finally succeeding in the
fine arts 10 the highest rank among her sister States
