Bills arc before Congress making appropria-

Michigan, as follows:- 90
Improvement of harbor of Milwaukee,

d at mouth of Grand R., Mich, 10000
The bills have all been made in accordance
with the estimates of the Typographical Bureau
of the War Department, which has charge Of
these works, and will no doubt be passed soon,
and President Pierce will have another oppor-
tunity to show his devotion to the interests of
the Northwest 1t is generally thought that he
will veto them all, and that they will then be
passed by two thirds vote over the veto. 1t
is possible that sufficient pressure may be
brought to bear, to compel the President to sign
them, as many of his warmest Democratic
friends in Congress are the most strenuous ad.
voctes of the appropriation.

SAN FRASc1sCo-Th San Francisco Herald
in an article describing the rise and progress Of
that city, says:
The city of San Francisco ranks in impor-
lance as the sixth city in the United States of
North America. In population we number about
sixty or seventy thousand. In trade we stand
in the foremost rank. The imports in New York
largely exceed the exports. In San Francisco
the exports (if cur staple gold, be included, J
are largely in excess of the imports. The whole
export Of the United States does not exceed two
hundred millions Of dollars. Our experts inclu-
ding gold and the natural products Of the coun-
try. equal sixty millions Of dollars. San Fran
cisco is the great commercial emporium of the
Pacific; it is naturally the centre of the trade
of India, China, and the Pacific, and before ma
ny years elapse, provided railroad is built to
connect with the East, San Francisco may be-
come not only one of the most important cities
in the United States, but the first city in the
Union. Assumption Of this kind may be regar-
ded as the expression of q local pride, pardona-
BILE under certain circumstances but if any
people can with reason indulge in this species
species of pride, the people of this State can.
Six years ago the State of California was bar
rem wilderness-six years ago the city of San
Francisco was a.forbidding- looking sand hill To
day the State Of California ranks in point Of
votes as the eleventh State in the Union and
the city of San Francisco, exclusive of its gold
exports, occupies prominent position as great
commercial emporium. We have, therefore,
reason to be proud. By our enterprise and in
telligence we have attained to commanding
influence in the sisterhood of the States, and
though we have not that weight in Congress and
in our National Convention to which we are en-
titled, our State and our people attract larger
share of public attention than any other State
in the T-nion
