what California is to America America is Ia

seen Of such mighty and Interminahle contlux OF
people, Ireland alone SUPPLIES yearly to this ex.
raordnary state the popura,ion of first elias. ci.
ty San Francisco has increased more in two
years than Brighton in fifty. The treasures Of the
new territory have attracted immigration in equal
numbers from the two provcrba extremities of
the word-fioin China and Peru and vet by
some wonderful process the system Of the Union
appcrs TO absorb and nssiminte to its constitution
these various and conflicting elements. No spec.
ulator can proynoscate the end fscuh n prudi
glous experiment, or rrophesy the eventual dcc
sions OF n chamber in which the delegates of Cali
fornia and New Mexico will meet the representa-.
uves Of Florida and Maine. But thus much we
may at least say, that the American Union is now
di'eharying providcntial part in the progress of
the world and that if the possible notifications Of
its political constitution are but effected in obedi.
cnce to the principles which have hitherto main.
