Progress OF San Franc iscO.


The distinguishing feature in the present condi-
ton of our city, as contrasted with that Of year
ago, is the rapid extension over the waters Of the
bay Of wharyes and pilc-supported Streets and the
more certain unyielding Entertainments of sand and
soil. Where once the vessel in deep channel, dis
charged her freight into lighters and boats, to be
transmitted by long and easy stages to the business
places of our merchants, may now be seen substan-
tal warehouses and stores, receiving direct into
their capacious repositories, the manufactures Of
Eastern looms. and produce of many foreign soils.
The untirng enterprise of the California adventurer
has not only tanned the land to obey his behests but
has flung bride the sea, subduing it into the
handmaiden of his will and his interests.
The broad expanse Of water which stretched in
to, almost, the very base of the hills from the
line of Ricon and Clark's Points, is now excluded
from its former hold, and the site restored to the
dominion Of the land. The irregular sand hills that
formerly dotted the surface Of our city limits, are
fast yielding to the combined powers Of man and
steam, and are made material agents in the subju-
CATION of the neighboring element to the resisless
sway of the pale faces, while far back in the hills
and intervening glades, the wild chapparal and
dense briers, the haunt Of the coyote, lurking
place Of the aborgnes, have given place to smiling
villas and tranquil abodes of peaceful citizens: the
Ialeis aLu modes ot civilized life, at once sub
stituted for the simple existence and wild habits of
the primitive savage. Thus has the modern spirit
of enterprise effected the three-fold conquest-re-
straining the ocean, levelng the earth and REFORM
ing or REFRESHING the savage. The growth of the
city in the direction of the country is not less rapid
than the extension seward The village Of the
Mission Dolores, short time ago, miles dis
tant from the city Of San Francisco is now a close
suburb, while the village Of the lagoon near the
Preside, about the distance, in another direc-
ton, is now being fast approached by the extend
ing city.
The San Francisco Herald Of the 18th of March,
contains the following paragraph headed ''The City
Of Churches For number of years past several
cities in the old States have discussed the question
as TO which could lay claim to the title of the ssCity
OF Churches" BY general consent the palm was
given to Brooklyn in the State of New York, which
can boast Of larger number Of edifices devoted to
public worship, than any other place Of its size on
the Atlantic shore. We fear that we must deprive
Brooklyn of the honor, for we claim that San Fran
cisco has more churches than Brooklyn or any other
city in America, in proportion to its population. 1t
Is not necessary to enumerate them, but we have
fourteen churches of various denominations in our
new city, to every ,57 Of our population If
we are not very much mistaken, therefore, this takes
the lead, and San Francisco can in justice claim to

Mass Meeting of the Wings of Palmyra

The Scott Club at Palmyra, Marion coun-

Mass Meeting of the friends Of ScoTT and
GRAHAM, in Palmyra, on the 9TH day of
October. All those friendly TO their cleo
ton in Northeastern Missouri and Illinois
are to be invited to attend; and there will,
we doubt not be an outpouring of thousands
oflhe people. Distinguished Wing speak

who attend. We do not know town to
which we had rather go on such an occa-
sion. The people are hosptiable, the coun-

will see that all are well attended to.

DEAR TIMES: am once more at my post
correspondential, after little more than two
months rustication, in fine health and spir-
its, and hasten to give you such floating
items as have come to my knowledge, du-
ring the four days that l have been in the
city.
Although l have witnessed 10 public de-
monstration of political feeling, yet have
seen and heard enough TO know that the
friends of Gen. Scott are cup and DONG
and that the present campaign IN Missouri,
particularly St. Louis, will be no less in
teresting and exciting than the stirring
times of !sgood old 49," when every wing
was at his post. Although the wings of
this State may seem to fight under black
and forbidding political horizon, yet they
, have great goal to win, and the dim light
that is seen in the distant future should
be sufficient incentive TO stir them on to the
most heroic and unceasing eXertions. The
ball is already in motion here, and through
the fundamentally of the "Young Mems
Democratic Wing Associations" and similar
influences, it is likely to be kept rolling
pretty swiftly until the November election.

to witness the enthusiasm and good feeling
that thus early prevails. The songs of the

of the occasion. The organization of such
associations and clubs in the various towns
and villages in the State, together with thor
ough canvassing, is the only sure means OF
redeeming the State from its present Loco.

The city is assuming business-like as
pect once more, and business now begins &c
look cheerful and exhibit great suavity Of
manners.
There have been severed arrivals of up
country Merchants during the last few days
and by the middle ofthe next week we may
expect the hustle of business to be as grea
as any former period of the year.
i. During the summer months our citizens
4 have not been idle, but have studiousl!
progressed in adding valuable improvement
in the shape of business houses, &c. Lott
that were vacant, or covered with rubbish
when left the city in the early part Of tn
summer, have now upon them splendid
business houses, or those that are in process
of erection. Along I'd street, in the neigh
borhood of Chestnut, Pine and Olive, motto
several valuable additions. The foundation
for the new wing of the Court House, front
ing on 4th street, has been laid and tn
building will soon be completed.
In the Criminal Court the rioters at tn
April election are now on trial. A jur

difficulty. Among the most notorious of tn
defendants are f. C. Judson, alias Ne
