Premiums to New Subscribers.

OWING to the late revolutions and counter-revo
~ lutons among the nations of Europe, which ha v.
followed each other in quick succession, and OF which
the end is not yet" the leading periodicals OF Great
Britain have become invested with degree OF inter

ground between the hasty, dsointed and necessarily
imperfect records Of the newspapers, and the elabo
rate and ponderous yeatses to be furnished by the his
torian at future day. The American Publishers,
therefore, deem it proper to call renewed attention to
these Periodicals, and the very low price at which
they offered to subscribers. The following is

CALIFORNIA rRorrr AND LOSS.

arrival, had died 90 had returned home
with S33, 200, an average Of $3.50 each, and
a remained in California, with $4,000, an
average of 299pe man. The highest sum
possessed by any one man was $1,000, while
9 had nothing at all Allowing $1,000 each
for three of whom no information was obtain
ed, the general average for the whole compa-
ny was SliI6 each. The members were EN-
gagged for the most part of the time AS follows
AS clerk on steamboat ! pilot, steam
boat hand, /; coasting, l farmers, 3 truck
men, q drivers OF teams to the mines, 5
carpenters, 8 merchants, , packer, thu

eel in California about the same time. At the
end ofa year seven had died eighteen return
cd home with $4,000, and fly remained
with S3s,ioo-bcing general average Of
$40 each. The highest sum gained by any
one member was $4,000 while nineteen made
nothing beyond their current expenses. TAX

TREASON IN MISSISSIPPI.

The MeHphis, Tenn, Eagle, publishes a
long letter from gentleman of high charac-
ter, at jackson, Miss, in which it is asserted
that a fixed and settled purpose exists there
to drive the State from her loyalty, and place
her in an attitude of hostility to the Federal
GnXernmcnL The sfltsit- -,r,,,r-f1irrury of the
State Government, Including the executive,
Legislative and judicial departments, j. said
to be directed to that end. The conspiracy
is described as a most formidable one, as re-
CARDS talents, wealth and weight of character.
The correspondent referred to says:
AT the head of this formidable array
stands IT, Executive of the State, backed by
two Of tn, Judges Of the Supreme Court, the
Chancellor of the State, and every State Of
ficer in and about the capital To these you
may add a long list of gentlemen renowned
in former days for their political zeal and
proves on the rostrum, who have heretofore
been as wide apart as the poles but who are
now found side 10y side in battle array against
the Federal Union. They have at their COM
mand almost untold wealth, and are prepared
TO bring to their services all those countless
agencies and facilities, which alas for moor
human nature, are everywhere to be bought
for money"
