UJGeneral Franklin Pierce and our
old Friend Milton Hall, Esq, are both
natives ofNew Hampshire, and, in point
Of mental capacity, arc about equal
although, if there is any preference, il is
rather in Millions favor. Milton intends
taking the stump during the campaign,
in behalf of his friend, and, if he does
no, secure any votes for Pierce, we are
very con6den. that he will make great
deal OF fun. He has already commenc-
ed collecting anecdotes with which to
intersperst his Phillipics, such as that
OF General Pierce's gift OF a stick of can
dy to the crying child, &C., in order to
illustrate the nobility and extreme gen
erosity OF Pierce's character. Milton
will prove to be a powerful auxiliary in
the campaign, and in his advocacy Of
Pierce's claims to the Presidency, the
people will have another illustration Of
the saying that birds Of leather al
ways flock together"

the Prometheus being sick, very few
papers were received.
The Prometheus has $4,000 on
freight, and about $500 900 in hands Of
passengers.
The news from California is OF no
Importance. A serious accident had
occurred to Judge Hoffman, by being
thrown from his horse. II was thought,
however, that he would recover.
The steamer Pacific, which connect.
ed with the Prometi eus, was detained
at San Juan until the 10Th, owing to a
strike for wages among the frcmen and
coalheavers.
Provisions at the mines were very
abundant, and gold continued TO be
gathered in immense quantities.
G. Ryckman, Of San Francisco. it
was said, would receive the appoint
ment Of Flour Inspector.
The California Markets we're dull,
and Stocks unchanged.
The accounts from Chill are two
weeks later. The country was generally
prosperous. ..

THE ERICssoN PRoBLEM.-The New
York Mirror has the following mention
of Ericssoh's caioric ship, now in process
of construction at Williamsburg:
That dark looking skeleton which lies
high on the Williamshurgh shore, and is
so noticeable an object from the ferry
boats is the timber framework Of the
new steamer Ericsson, on the stocks at
the ship yard Of Messrs. Perrin, Patter-
son g. Stack. Ii is a wonder Of oaken
strength. Whoever would see the best
specimen of ship skeleton that can be
seen in the country, must hasten TO the
yard above named, before the astonish-
ing timber work is closed in. II oak
and iron can make a strong vessel, this
will surely be one. The cnterprising
and skIIiull builders are doing their best
to make an unsurpassed piece o. work.
But how the mysterious caloric engine
will work, remains to be seen. The
company is confident. A sixty horse en-
g,ne on this plan has worked well.-
The vessel is $50 feet long. 40 wide. and
q feet deep. The engine power is TO
be $50 horse. The result OF the under
taking will be awaited with very deep
interest.
