AN OvERDoNE BUs1NEss.-Droving to
California, across the Plains, has become
a rather hazardous business. A cores
pondent of the Los Angeles Star writing
under date of April &c, says:
In very short time the beef market
will be glutted, and there will be stagna-
ton in that branch Of business. I am of
opinion that | passed between this place
Los Angeles and Santa Clara Valley,
some ten thousand head of cattle, and about
hfty thousand head of sheep, all en- route
for San Francisco and the mines. I have
also learned that at least go, 900 head of
cattle will be driven from the State this
season.

A Remarkable Man.

Col. Lemanowsky, whom many of the
citizens of Detroit and Michigan will re-
member as having lectured through the
State several years ago, on the character
of Napoleon Bonaparte, and as Minister
of the Gospel, was twenty three years in
the armies of the GREAT CAPTAIN, and a
fayorite of that distinguished General. In
recent speech, at temperance meeting
in Alabama, COL Lemanowsky rose before
the audience, tall erect and vigorous, with
glow of health upon his cheek, and
said:'
"You see before you man 10 years old.
have fought two hundred battles, have
fourteen wounds ON my body, have lived
thirty days on horse flesh, with the bark
. of trees for my bread, snow and ice for
my drink, the canopy of heaven for cover
ing, with noshoes or stockings on my feet,
and only a few have marched for days with
burning sun upon my naked head; feet
blistered in the scorching sand, and with
eyes, nostrils and tormenting that have
opened the veins on my arms and sucked
my own blood Do you ask me how
have survived all these horrors? I answer,
under the Providence of God, owe my
preservation, my health and vigor, to this
fact, that l never drank drop of spiritu-
GUS liquors in my life! And Baron Larry,
Chief of the Medical Staff of the French
Army, has. stated as a fact that 6, 900 sur
vivors, whohas safely returned from Egypt,
were all of them men who had abstained
from ardent spirits. Detroit paper

IF the following statement be correct,
and we presume it is, what d contrast
Paris presents TO New York! It is fur
nshed by Mr.. Kendall, of The N. q. Picn
yune :--"1ho total number of fires in
Paiis, during the last six mouths has
been one hundred and eight. Fifty were
caused by The bad construction Of chim-
uies, sixteen by the imprudcncc Of per-
sons who have been the victims OF their
own carelessness, and twenty by acci-
dents from chemical matches. Not one
is sell down as the 'vork Of an incpndiary
The insurance system here is agains, in
dulging in any such eccentricily. Of.be
entire number Of fires, by far the creator
part were confined in the room in which
they broke ont. 1t may seem s'rnnge,
