mtted that there have been during the past wear
about one hundred and fifty thousand persons engaged
IN California mining for gold. 1t is our impression
that tine aggregate production of gold dust in Calor
ma has been much greater than here set down. An
immense amount has, doubt, been sent ont of the
country by merchants and miners which no account
has been taken. The amount OF gold dust on hand
with the miners, brokers, spectators and Others and
In circulation for commercial purposes is undoubtedly
much larger than reported As regards future produc-
tlon all is doubt and conjecture. 1t is stated that re-
cent developments in the gold region have demonstra-
TED that the yield will hereafter be much grea er than
It mas ever been yet Discoveries OF veins of yerv rich

Those who are troubled with that unpleasant tickling
in the throat, which depryes them of rest night after
night, by the ncessant cough which it provokes WILL by
using this Candy, find immediate relief
The subscriber, in presenting this Candy to public
tcc wishes to be expressly understood that he does
claim for it any miraculous curing properties does he
present it with long string of certificates of
dation, as he considers these altogether needless.
This Candy is composed of SiD simple Ingredients, p1i-
cidly Of herbs which known to be cfcacous in
the of diseases resulting from colds and of
which, being rather nauseous in their natural state,
would deter many from resorting to them; but, when
made into candy become palatable without losing any
of their valuable properties.
1t has been prepared at the suggestion Of Of on
eminent hySica1S and has been used by many of
his and my personal friends with signal success and at
whose earnest solicitation have been induced
largely into its manufacture assured by him and them
that when generally known and tried IL viii supersede all
the various cough candies and mixtures in use.
As for myself am confident, from the ingredients of
which is composed that should it not effect entire
cure, it do injury to the most delicate IN
hea and therefore have heitancy in introducing it
to the citizens of Washington and vicinity.

CIRCULAR.

WASHINGTON, Atyust /, 1851.
O After consulting many persons interested in the
- principal Railroads in the United States the under
signed propose establish agencies in this city and in
New York. for the purpose OF collecting full and authen-
tic Railroad statistics and such other information will
enable them persons desiring invest in Rail-
road securities to procure information of any matters
connected with the construction and administration OF
Railroads They also propose especially, to urge upon
Congress modification Of the laws relating to contracts
for carrying the mall so as to authorize the Post Office
Department to contract for the perpetual of Railroads.
and instead Of paying, quarterly contracts for
four years. to advance in five per cent bonds Of the United
Sates chargeable upon the of the Post Office
Department amount the interest upon which at per
cent. would equal the payments now made.
The Government now pays $500 per mile for carrying
the mail on irstclass Railroads This is per cent on
$4,000 The undersigned would urge that, instead Of pay
ing $500 mile, per annun, the Department should de-
liver, on contract in perpetuity, five $1,000 bonds,
bearing interest of five per centum At this rate the
charge upon the Department would be reduced from $500
to $3.50 n mile per anuum and the $50 mile saved
would create sinking fund, which will in few years
pay of the bonds and give the of such roads forever
thereafter free Of all charge; thereby ecctng vast
saving the present annual expenditures Of the Post
Office Department and consequent reduction of the
rates of postage.
The effect will be no less advantageous to Railroad com
panies than to the Government For instance, such
contract would give TO the Baltimore aud Ohio Railroad
Company more than So 100000 which would enable that
company complete its road at early day. and greatly
increase Its business and profits.
But to meet objections and impress the public mind
with proper of the benefits to result from this
win require concert Of action and continued
active effort through the press and otherwise. The
derSgneu tender their services expect
ing reasonable compensation, partly contingent upon
the OF the and respectfully suggest the
propriey of your sending delegates this
city, the first Wednesday in December next 10 confer
with delegates from other Railroad companies TO the
details Of the proposed arrangement and the best
bringing the subject before Congress
Should Il be your pleasure to accept Of services in
this matter viii promptly attend to all other business
which you, or your Company, may have with the Post
Office Department other branch Of the Government.
Hoping 10 hear from you ut your earliest convenience
are, respectfully, your obedient servants
