,TAKEr BY SURPRISE "A letter from Ssn
Francisco to Mr.. r. Harris, Of this w.
from his brother, relates curious incident
th,t occurred there short time since which
we do not reflect having seen in print
Her Britannia Majesy's exploring ship,
Ployer, arrived at San Fran :isco short
time since from the Polar Sea. where she
had been ice bound since ls47. When she
left San Francisco some years ago, It was
mere landing station, resorted to by few
vessels in pursuit OF hides, and the town OF
place contained only few adobe houses
The ca plain and crew expected to find the
same San Francisco in 1854 that they let'
in ls47. The captain therefore sailed into
the Bay without pilot and approached tn
city in the evening. He was much amazed
at the numerous lights he saw. When ne
awoke from his dream Of seven years next
morning, he found noble city occupying
the site of the ancient San Francisco. he
had known nothing Of the Mexican War
the cession of California to the United
States and the many other great event:
that had taken place during the time he had
been locked up in the frozen regions OF the
north Roch. Uniou.

last week some 440, 900 from the Govern.
ment.
They are the remnants of the Iowa, Sal
and Fox tribes, and are but few in number
The money was distributed per capita
which gave to each one a larger amour
than he ever before possessed. Their frs
care was to get rid oft. They went to 81.
Joseph and bought few blankets, grea
many American horses, innumerable trim
ksts, and much whiskey. / never saw 81
many drunken Indians in all my life as
have seen since that payment. | went to
one Of their villages and found the men il
. beastly state of intoxication, and hi

firm Of Gill & Brother OF st. LOUISE He
was talking with Major A. B. Patterson,
one Of the delegates from Baltimore, and in
conversation about railroads, Mr. Gill men,
toned that in Baltimore, on the Fourth of

out with his class to witness he laying
| by Charles Carroll Of Carrollton, Of the cor
ner stone Of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
| road, and that he walked hand in hand with
fellow student named Patterson. Who

a cordial pleasure which thrilled the hearts
of all who were present.
