CALIFORNIA is rapidly increasing in pop
ulation and resources. According to Sem
ator Weller, the total value of exports from
that State during last year was over "a
800 900. Among these was the item Of
Aour to the extent of $4,000. The change
in this particular is indeed remarkable.-
California, it would thus appear, is not on.
~ able to raise bresdstuffs sufficient for her
own consumptios, but handsome surplus.
This too, in her infancy. What she will
be able to do when she becomes older and
stronger, the reader may imagine. II should
Be remsmbered moreover, that the price OF
labor in California is very heavy, when COM
pared with the rates in the eastern cities.--
Ssnator Weller states that the amount of
small grain raised to the acre is much larger
there than in any other State Of the Unien.
n the number OF horses and mules she is
exceeded BY only fifteen other States;
willis, in cattle she is only surpassed BY
seven States. In wheat there were only
nine States which produced more in 1855;
while New York, alone, produced larger
ameunt Of barley. Sixteen States Of the
Union produced smaller quantities of Pota-
toes, and no State yielded 30 many gallons
OF wine. In the aggfseate Of live stock
only fourteen States tsurpass il. In 1888
Ii ere was imported into San Frsncisco msr-
chandise to the value of 9l0O,0Oo,00O OF
more than the whole amount Of goods in.
uorted in to the United States foa tsen years
sqo. In point Of commerce. 6aa Frsacia-
% 10 ranked a. third Or fourth in the uniod.
while the city, although Eve times destroyed
by 6re, will compsrs favorably with aay
other city Of this Repsblic. In her schools,
hsr churches, her public institutions, ia sii
that dienides and ennoblss human aaturs,
he has made more rapid advances during
thu last i've years than any other city ia
the world - '~ 2sZS

A SUGAR PLANTER IN LIBERIA

J. NJ. Richardson, a well known
colored man of New York, who emf ?
grated to Liberia three years ago,
writes back as follows: R
The first sugar | planted was four
acres which the Rev. j. 3. Pinny saw
in the ground when he was here
Last year Increased tito fifteen acres.
After making inquiries among the
other sugar growers came to thecon
clusion that Il would not do grow su-
gar under the system they were fol-
lowing, that is, having hand mills,
and depending upon the natives to
turn them, besides carrying the cane
to the mill; and concluded that in
order to make sugar pay, it must be
grown and manufactured on q large
scale. / have now cut, and will com
mence planting in March, Is acres.
and shall absolutely need steam su.
gar mill by next dries. Let me tell
yon of what my farm consists. Be-
sides 412 acres, l have $4,000 coffee
trees, including scions two years DID,;
I l have one yoke of oxen-the only
oxen in the country-and one horse.
/ employ constantly IS natives and
six Americans, but now have employ
ed some sixty hired hands cutting
and clearing land and making bricks
of which / shall make los, 900 this
seasonal Of which has been done of
of $70O, which brought with me
when came.
