California Mews--Thc most i'm.
portant intelligence by this arrival i.
the great freshet in the interior Of
California caused by the late rains.
The loss Of property, however, is not
so grea: as it was on a former occa-
sion. Sacramento was overlooked in
consequence Of tho revass in the
l@evee, as was also MarysviI.e. In the
former city comparatively little dam,
ago was done, for the reason that the
inhabitants were prepared to some ex.
tent for an inundation, and as the wa.
tiers rose and gained Upon them, they
removed their property to more ele.
waited positions, and therefore suffered
moro Inconvenience than actual loss.
Marysville, on the other hand. suffer.
ed a good deal, and her loss is csti-
mated at $4,000.
The greatest loss was sustained by
the farmers on the low lands, and by
owners otbriIgcs leading to The mines.
The crops are not so much injured as
it waa feared they would be.
Ynba city ESCAPED all damage By
the food.
At Nevada the food has been worry
serious. Two quartz mills, the Thea
tire, and Empire Hotel, hayo been
washed away. Many other houses
have been swept down, and consider
able damage sustained by the mer-
chants.
The bridges At Colonia and Salmon
Falls have been carried away, and it
is feared that every bridge on tho
south and middle forks Of the Ameri.
can River, has shared the same fate.
The country between Sacramento and
the mines is utterly imIassable.

ins at All end, and the gulches and
ra'ines. in the interior, being filed
up with water, the miners are busily
engaged in washing the earth they
had dug, and from which they could
not extract the gold for want of rain.
They are in The best spirits. and their
returns thus far are very flattering.
1t is confidently expected by intel.
ligent persons who have given atten-
ton to the subject, that the yield Of
gold this season will exceed that Of
any former year. A greater number
of persons have been at work, and a
larger quantity Of earth has been dug
than was ever known.
