4 MONEY-PACKER'S LABOR-SAV-
ING SOAP and UNIVERSAL CHEMI-
CAL STAIN EXTRACTOR.

ING SOAP and UNIVERSAL CHEMI-
CAL STAIN EXTRACTOR.
This new preparation, for its labor saving
and renovating qualities, stands before the
public without rival Want of space pre-
vents the enumeration of all its advantages
and claims to popular favor. Among the
scores, the following are
FirSt-It saves labor; it supercedes the
necessity of rubbing and pounding, and pro-
tects both skin and knuckels, as well as
buttons and clothes.
Second-It saves time. A washing or
dinarily requiring day may be easily ac-
complished in two hours.
Ihard-It is economical in regard to the
use Of water, not requiring more than one
tenth ordinarily employed by common soaps.
Fourth-It will instantly remove grease
and spots of paint without the use Of any
water whatever, and thus protect carpets
and furniture from suds and slops
Fifth-Flannels can be washed without
being fulled or sticky, with the ease and
rapidity of that of cotton or linen
Sirth-It is wonderfully effective in re-
moving grease and spots from woolens and
linens, yet per ectly harmless. 1t will not
injure the most delicate fabric.
Se0enth-It Whitens clothes and renders
the skin both soft and white, and is an in
fallible cure for ehapped hands
Eighh-For champooing, bathing and
renovating the skin it is uuequalled.
.Ninth-It supersedes the necessity of
using polishing powders, by instantly i'm
parting a most brilliant lustre to jewelry
plate, Brittania, tin, copper and brass.
T'enth-It is acknowledged by all who
have used this soap, to be the greatest in
vention of the age Its use is absolutely
indispensable for the comfort of every fami.
ly and the convenience of every hotel,
steamboat, restaurant, ship and laundry
1t is also admirably adapted for the mines.
1t is retailed at the principal groceries in
the city, and sold at wholesale at the manu-
facturers depot, 86 California street, San
Francisco.

The right to the Tehuantepec route
has been granted by the Mexican 60
vernment to mixed company of Mex
leans and Americans, at the head of
whom is Col. SIoo. The treaty was to
be ratified by the American Minister,
and the chief engineer was. to leave
Mexico on the 18th February, to take
formal possession in the name of the
grantees. Thus is the prospect fair for
the speedy opening of another great
line of communication between the two
coasts of the American continent.

A CALIFORNIA SCENE

For the Chronicle.
A CALIFORNIA SCENE
All among the pines green tresses,
Bending in the western blast,
Where the raven and the vulture
Croaking, screaming, hurry past
Where the storm in winter RACES
AS the rains come pouring down,
And the hot sun dimly enters
When the summer months come on,
Let me rest awhile and ponder,
Lounging by my faithful gun,
For my limbs are weary climbing,
Ger the mountains in the sun.
There is grandeur all around me,
On the earth and in the sky,
In the white peaks far above me,
In the river rolling by.
There is music stealing gently
All my wearied senses DER,
In the cooling doves low murmur
And the pines that round me soar,
Grand and solemn peans chanted
On their windy organs wild,
Like the broken hymns Of slumber,
In our dreaming when child.
List the west wind rising gently.
Wakes the zephyrs from their sleep,
And the river tumbles headlong
Down its canons dark and deep!
List the clash of ringing shovels,
And the grating of the screen,
With the songs of happy miners
Echoing up the long ravine
Hear the whirling of the windlass
As its many coils unfold,
For another bucket freighted
With its wealth Of virgin gold
Westward, sternly. like giant,
Shutting out the rolling main,
Mount Diablo dimly towers
Far across the smoky plain.
See the belts of living verdure,
Telling where the rivers run,
Where the wild grape hangs in clusters,
And the lotus woos the sun;
Stretch away their threadlike courses,
Far az eye the scene can view,
Till the skies and broad savannas
Melt and mingle in the view. A. R.

The panic among stock spectators still continues. Wall
street is in perfect erment Fancy stocks forced of
with difficulty at any prices and it almost impossible
to negotiate loans any terms Call loans have changed
their character for they not paid CALL and the ex
element among oancers is equal to anything We have
experienced The bulls hardly krow which way 10
turn or what 10 do, while the bears hold with appre
tensions of pretty general delinquency on the part of
previous purchasers Everything the street is at loose
ends, aAd appears to have any decided opinion
upon any point connected with the present future posi-
ton of financial affairs. Amidst all this doubt and un
certainty the banks are steadily contracting. Their
salvation depends on strengthening themselves
gradually. Any rash headlong movement at pre-
sent would bring crash about their ears that would
sweep away half the banking institutions in the
city They must protect themselves and in doing will
protect the commercial classes The system of making
call loans is operating inrousy upon those who are
fortunate enough to depend upon bank favor re-
duces the lines of discount those who have been regular
sustomer and have certain claims for the purpose of
aiding spectators and creating fictitious values in the
stock market More than six weeks since we predicted
precisely this state Of things At that time the banks
were loaning literally on call and it the easiest
thing In the world to raise money at per cent in
that way 1t impression at the time that sud.
den turn would be given to the screws which would
place those who had deeply involved themselves with the
banks, by the hypothecaon Of stocks in very unplea
SAINT position Some Of the and strongest houses
in the street have found impossible to quidate these
call loans on demand, and the panic in stocks
generally can, In measure, be attributed to
the distrust produced by this state Of affairs
What the result Of all this will be no one can anticipate
That it will be disastrous to some extent no one can
doubt Much depends upon the immediate calls made for
liquidation 1t is exceedingly difficult to realize on any
amount of stock securities of any class No matter how
good they may be, there is not capital enough aaoat
