MARVELLOUS FERTILITY.

Sir George Simpson, in his narrative of a
Land Journey Around the World, spoke of the
country around San Francisco, as the most
fertile he had ever seen. He said great por-
ton of it was capable of producing one hun
dred bushels of wheat to the acre. This was
before California had become a part of the
American Union. and, of course, before its au-
riferous capabilities were even Suspected
We should have set down this statement, in
spite of the authors general character OF cor
RICHNESS, to the credit of travellers license
had it not been confirmed, in some degree, by
the letter of MIR. Werth, published, last year.
in the Richmond Wing. We have now be.
fore US, however, statement which throws all
others completely in the shade. 1t is from the
Stockton Journal, of May 29th, 1852. 1t is to
the effect that bundle of barley, with ninety
six stalks, the produce of single seed, each
ear containing, on an average, 10 seeds, and
the whole making 600 seeds, had been depo.
sited with the editor for the inspection of the
curious. The fortunate owners of the tract
upon which this barley grew, are Mr.. Richard
Heath, formerly of this city, and Judge o. E,
Emory, and the tract itself lies on the Stanis-
laus river, having attached to it ferry which
is called Emory and Heath Ferry. The stalks
are represented to be nearly six feet long, and
the editor had retained the roots which might
be seen at his office. The sample was taken
fiom field of thirty acres, and is the third
crop therefrom. Judge Emory, who presented
the bunch, promises to try again as soon as
this shall have been beaten, though we hardly
think he will be put to the trial. Truly this
California is a wonderful land, nor shall we be
surprised at any thing that shall happen there.
Dean Swift, 1--WE believe, located his Brotdig-
nags there, and we expect to hear that Lem
uel CULVER was a veracious traveller. If
every thing else grows to such size there, why
not men? Are the owners of this farm quite
certain that they will not wake up some fine
morning and find themselves forty feet high?

meeting. The Mayor then explained In few elo.
ouent remarks, the object OF the meeting, after
which Sherman McRae offered the following pre-
amble and resolution:
Whereas we have heard. with profound sorrow,
of the death of Heary Clay. Identified with the
public affairs of the country for the last 46 years,
every great measure during that period bears the
stamp OF his character The world will be at a
loss which most to admire, the briiancy of bis ge-
MUS, his lionhearted courage when his country was
in peril, his fidelity to his friends, his disinterested
patriotism, his lofty and practical craftsmanship
Cicero said of Ageselaus thathis fame was more
imperishabe than if his face had been painted by
Apeles or his statue carved by Lysippus-because
he had impressed himself on every page of his
countrys history If this be true, the Sage OF Ash
land Is immortafor not oply are the pages of Amer
the history of every land where civil liberty dwei,s
will encircle with glory the name of Clay. The
flowers which decked the grave of Chatham, are
reserved tor him Recorded hoAors shall gather
round his monument and thicken on er hlm"-"it Is
e solid fabric and will support the laures that adorn
it,
ResolUed, That committee of thirty be appoint
ed TO adopt such measures as may be deemed ap
propriate to honor the ilustrious dead.
Mr.. R. I. Daniel seconded the resolutions In
short speech, eulogistic of the life, services aud
character of Henry Clay; after which, the resolu
tons were unanimously adopted
Mr. Poitaux Robinson then offered resolution
appointing John Minor Bolts to deliver the funeral
eulogy of the immortal sage, but after discussion
it being made apparent that the committee OF thirty
had charge of this subject, the resolution was with
drawn. The Mayor having been selected to ap'
point the committee of thirty and report through
the city newspapers, the meeting adjourned.
