the following article in regard to
the return OF the wheel barrow en-
igrant from the golden region
"Many Of our readers will re-
member the account published in
all the newspapers, nearly two
years ago, of a California emigrant,
who crossed the plains ION loot and
alone," with wheel barrow, con
veying all his earthly goods, that Is.
his provisions, clothes, tools, &c,
in that humble vehicle, and outstrip-
ping in his march numbers who
started for the land Of gold, with
more snowy and expense ve equip
ments. His name was Brookmire,
and he is an freshman by bifth.-
His residence is at W arreu, in
Pennsy lvania, where he LETT wife
and family OF children in very indi7
gent circumstances when lie went
over the Rocky mountains TO ''try
his fortune" Brookmire has lalet
" returned from California with
about fifteen thousand dollars OF
the "dust,'' all of which he dug out
and washed with his own hands
And as it is very apt TO pour when
it rains, his wife received -legacies
during his absence to the amount
Of 81, 700, falling to her upon the
Death Of some relatIons in Scot
land"
We would not, by publishing the
above, encourage our readers to
believe that by pushing wheel bar
row from here to California he
would be equally successful. We
are decidedly Of opinion that during
this month man can make more
by rolling bis wheel barrow from
the manure heap TO the garden
than from Tennessee to any part
Of the gold region. Car dening and
farming is pretty certain business
but going to California, whether
on steamship, or behind wheel
barrow, is lottery, here there
are at least a hundred blanks TO
one prize. Where one man makes
a fortune we find a thousand wreck
ed in properly, ruined in reput4-
ton, and afflicted with diseases iI-
durable. We believe Tennessee is
a better country than California ev-I

~ Appearances Indicate that the scheme
of Customs Union between Germany and
Austria, so jealousy pushed by the late
Prince Schwarzenberg, will be carried into
effect. 1t is supported by Count Buol-
Schauenstein and DR.. Bach, the leading
spirits in the present Austrian Cabinet, and
a large number of the German States are
pledged to it, fact which causes no little
chagrin to the Government of Prussia. In
opening the Conferences which the men,
bers of the present Zollverein commenced
at Berlin on the 10th ult., With view to
renewing that Union between them, whose
term is nearly at hand, that Government
took occasion to declare against receiving
Austria as member of the Union at all.
A mere commercial treaty with that power
was all that it would admit; though at the
same time Baron Nanteuffel, the Prussian
Premier, expressed all sorts of good feeling
and friendly wishes toward his imperial
neighbor and rival. On the back of this,
an agreement, signed by the Ministers of
Bavaria, Saxony, Wurtemberg, the two
Hesses, Nassau and Baden, has been pub
lished, in which those States bind them
selves to use their best efforts to procure
the admission of Austria into the Zollye
rein; and, further, in case that should fail
through the resistance of Prussia, to with.
draw and set up new Zollverein for them
selves, leaving Prussia to 60 its own way,
with such allies as may remain to it.
These States are, next to Prussia, the
most considerable members of the old
Union, and their detection would be a &C.
rious blow. We do not believe that Man.
teufiel and his colleagues will allow such a
detection to take place. They have got in
the way of yielding to external pressure,
and will be likely to do so now. Our read
ers are aware that we regard the execution
of this one, among the many Austrian
schemes, as fraught with blessings to the
people ofGermany and Austria, and to the
cause Of liberty in general. Therefore. we
welcome these indications of its probable
success with no slight satisfaction and
hope.

COAL AND IRON.

A friend in Pennsylvania, who has long
been interested in Coal mines and Iron
works, comments in a private letter, on
our recent notice of the free trade specula-
tions of The Independent. As he states
some valuable and interesting facts in re-
gard to coal mines as well as in reference
to the iron trade, we take the liberty Of
copying portion of his letter, as follows:
"You might have told The Indepe, dent that
he owed all his free trade steamships, and his
cheap cloth and iron, and cheap fuel, to the sacr-
fees Of the men who have brought the coal mines
of Pennsylvania into activity. Ninc-tenths of
those concerned with the Pennsylvania coal have
either been ruined-so far as they went into it
or have suffered heavy losses. Many and many
time have wished that ! had never seen an acre
Of coal land, and there are thousands who have to
wish that they had never expended dollar on q
road or canal leading to it. Were the coal re-
gion and oil its roads put up to sah this day, it
would not sell for half what it has cost. Some
few have pro6ted, but the number is very small,
while the number Of consumers who have profted

What You say about iron is true to some ex-
tent, without doubt but the difficulty is that there
is scarcely an alteration such as you suggest,

to improve. 1t is when men are making money

would put iron out Of reach of interference.

petition but the point at which 1t stands has been
reached at cost to the original owners Of as am
told, 100000 over what they found themselves
compeIIed to cell for. All that IL needed in this
country is that man should have sufficient brains
and sufficient spirit to enable him to do something
for the benefit ofhis fellow men, and then YOU may
set him down as mined man-runcd, too, to
make the fortune of some SPECTATOR who had not
brains to do anything of himself, and only just
enough to enable him to see the advantage that
must result to him from putting his egg into the
nest Of some one else.
