which kossnth collected in this country, hardly a
dollar crossed the Atlantic with him. He expended
it in this country in purchasing and making NUM-
tons of war, by the manu- acture of which he gave
employment to a large number of his destitute

ses decided opinion has written the following
On the event of the day:
The great falling from us,-to the dust
Our flag droops midway full of many signs;
A nations glory and peoples trust,
Lie in the ample pail where Webster lies.
The great are falling from us-one by one
As fall the patriarchs of the forest trees;
The winds shall seek them vanly, and the sun
Gaze each vacant space for centuries.
Lo. Carolina mourns her steadfast pine.
Which. like main mast, lowered, above her realm
And Ashland hears the voice divine
From out the branches of the stately elm
And Marshfeld's giant oak, whose stormy brow
Oft turned the ocean tempest from the west,
Lies on the shore he guarded ong-and now
Our startled Eagle knows not where to rest.

From San Francisco Wing, Sept q


We have been kindly furnished by Colonel Ransom,
Deputy United States Surveyor General for This State

portion OF the State, made by order OF General King

thorough reconnaissance of the whole country was
there made up to Los Angels. From this last point
the party struck off 10 San Bernardino valley. sixty
miles ca t. where the Mormons have large settle
ment of some 500 or 600 inhabitants. This valley is
described as one of the finest in California, being fine
Iy watered by springs throughout its extent The
amount which the Mormons claim under their purchase
from the Lagos is 100000 acres, for which they paid
$3.50 down, and are TO pay the additional sum of
$50. 006 in two years. They have erected one fine
grlstnlI with two of stone, driven by pow
er, and another is in progress of construction. The
wheat crop this season slightly injured by mist,
but the yield was very fair, aording enough for con-
sumption and an overplus The product of vegetables
this season very large, and of quality far superior
TO that raised in any part of the country Colonel
Ransom informs US he measured many stocks of corn
over 81 feet high, The settlement appeared to be hap
ply and prosperous
From the valley the party went thirty miles further
east to the top Of Mt San Bernardno. For the want
OF proper instruments the exact altitude of this
tam was not ascerlaned but it estimated to be
between 900 and 900 feet above the level of the
ocean. or three times higher than that of Mt Diabo
