The BIG TREES. s.-The Scientific CONGRESS-
which lately met at Albany, New York.
among other things passed a Resolution
asking the Governor and Legislature Of
California, for the sake of science, to take
steps for the preservation of the Big trees
at the back of Murphy,s Camp. They
did this under the belief that those found
in that locality were the only ones in exis-
tence. The late discoveries in Mariposa
county correct this impression. Tile sug-
gestion is, however, a good one; and steps
should be taken to preserve the celebrated
Mammoth Grove as public property, and
to prevent the destruction or removal of
any others of the famous groups.
Another account from the East tells of
gardener who had |, 500 plants growing,
which were raised from nuts or seed gath
cred under these trees, and which were
there worth one dollar apiece.

Died.-At her fathers house. on the 10th
day of November 1856, FRANCES JENNIE
LAT1MER, aged FL years, daughter of Daniel
Latimer
By this sad bereavement how fully and forci-
bly, are we reminded of tile truthfuneSs of the
saying
s'What shadows we are and what shadows we pursue"
On the verge of womanhood, the deceased s
hopes were as high, as any in this world =
long life of usefulness seemed before her, and
but fatal disease laid its heavy hand upon life,
and death snatched her to his icy embrace
now she who lately was so beautiful in form,
accomplished in mind and lovely in her rela-
tions, is resting in the cold grave. In sleep
she rests =
sGone to sleep which knows mortal waking,
Gone to the shadows all too deep for light;
Till the bright morning, in its beauty breaking
Shines on the land where is night,
Hearts are still beating-weary eyes closing
Nothing shall trouble her serene reposing
Passion and calm are both alike for her."

LATER From NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. !.
Prom private letter, received from a
friend in Yreka, we extract number of
interesting items of news. The commu-
nication is dated as late as the 18th inst
On the 10th, one James Smith, more
familiarly known as Shasta Jimmy"
and man named Ryan, both of whom are
shoulder strikers, got into difficulty in a
billiard room, all about their character
Eight shots were exchanged, which rather
annoyed the other occupants of the room,
but did no damage. One of the shots
crossed the street, and lodged in clock
that stood in jewelers. window. Sheriff
Fair, coming along about that time, invited
the combatants to take lodging with him at
the county's expense, which was duly ac-
cepted.
Yreka is at present very lively, and the
place has increased so rapidly that it now
outnumbers Shasta. Situated on the edge
of Shasta Valley, and but three miles from
Shasta river, it lies in the centre of the
richest mining district in Northern Cali
fornia.
Our correspondent had just returned
from vistit to Deadacood Creek, which
was three miles from Yreka, in the " d.
vide" separating Shasta from Scott's Val
ley. 1t runs in southwesterly course,
about nine miles, and empties into Scott
river. There are eabout four hundred men
on this stream, who are making probably
more money than the same number of
miners in any other locality in the State.
They sluice the banks for about four miles
from the head of the creek, but from that
down tunnel the earth. Some of the
claims are sixty feet deep. The dirt is
raised by horse power, and much of it
yields ounces to the bucket.
The weather about Yreka isvery cold,
the mountains covered with snow, and the
travelling exceedingly difficult and un-
pleasant. T. -ltta.

IA DR.. L. ]. Czapkay.-The gentleman
whose name forms the caption of this notice is
one of the few modern physicians whose appli-
cation to his profession and devotion to the af-
ficted, render him alike an ornament to the
one and benefit to the other. A Hungarian
by birth, he sought with Kossufh to place his
country among the nations of the earth, beyond
the oppressors rule, that her sons might re-
joice in the practice of those precepts which
alike our glory and our pride. In his efforts
SO to do, he has reaped the reward of Intellectual
resistance to oppression, and "a home and
country know him no more" Apart, however.
from his claims upon our consideration as
patriot, the testimonials of character and ca
pacity which he brings entitle him to public
confidence, to the exclusion of those who pos
sess neither the one or the other. As gentle
man his character is untarnished: as physi-
clan, his skill unsurpassed; and to those whose
imprudence has left upon them the taints of
disease, we can conscientionsly commend him
with the assurance that in him they will find
friend whom to know is great gain. The Dr.
