Raising the Central America.-The
New York Post says it is reported that
negotiations are going on between the
Boston Submarine Armor Company and
the underwriters ofthe Central America,
to raise her hull, which is supposed to
lie in about twenty eight fathoms water
The specie in her alone would furnish
ample inducement for the experiment,
if her position can be accurately fixed,
and that it can is probable, from the fact
that Capt. Herndon was reported to have
given her position to the vessel which
refused to come to his relief. Should
the work be undertaken promptly, there
is thought to be reasonable chance of
success"
There must be some error in calcula-
ting the place of the Central America
at the time she went down. The Ell
Dorad" gives the place at lat 81 de-
grees 10minutes, by 76 degrees, &c min
utes west longitude which will make the
catastrophe occur off the coast of South
Carolina 275 miles or thereabou south
of Cape Hatteias. The vessel must
thus have sunk upon the second sub-ma-
riue bench from the coast marked on
Lii ut Maury's charts as being from 1000
to 1000 fathoms in depth. The report
is given the worldithat the steamer foun-
dered in gale off Hattelas, and posi-
bly, the latitude and longitude reported
"given the vessel which refused to come
to the relief" of the steamer, may have
been computed from the last observation
taken on board the Central America a
day or two before she went down. We
have no account given when the last OBJ
servation was made on board the ill-fa-
ted steamer The distance of the ac-
cident from the shore must necessarily
sink the treasure deeper than rs faith
oms, and neither at that depth or not,
the difficulty of determining in such a
storm as that in which the Central Amer
lea persisted the exact position If a YES
sci renders the chance of success ex-
tremely uncertain.

The SETTLER Bills UNCONsTITu-
TIoNAL.-Judge McAllister of the u
s. Circuit Court, decided last week in
the case of Phoebe VS.. Hathaway tha'
both the bills of 1852 and sc, known as
the Settler Bills, were unconstitutional
and not only so, but in conflict with the
Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, and with
the Judiciary laws of the United States
Thus have the Courts of California and
the general government both pronoun-
eed against the Settler Acts.

The Crab Massacre.-The only sur
viving member of the Crabb expedition,
Charles Edward Evans, boy of near
II years, arrived in San Francisco on
the steamer Sonora last week. His &C
count was published in full in the Alta,
and his affidavit, taken before the u S.
Consul at Mazatlan appears in the San
Francisco Herald of the 4th inst
From the statements of the lad no
more horrible butchery was ever perpe-
trated than that in which persisted
Crabb and his companions. Not soul
escaped bnt the boy Evans. III e par
ty surrendered with the expectation of
being honorably treated by the Me1i-
cans but were mastered after their
arms were given up, by the faithless
savages Crabb's head was cut off and
preserved in vinegar. 1t was dragged
out of a jar by the hair and exhibited to
Evans a few days after the massacre
Evans saw the dead bodies of McCoun
and Wood lying unburied to which the
hogs paid repeated visits. Whatever
NAV have been the errand Of the SonoI a
Expedition, no one can read the account
of its horrible termination without an
unquenchable feeling of revenge against
the butchers.
Mexican faith had long ago been tried,
and we wonder that men like those who
composed the party of Crabb, having
the terrible t.u:hs of history before
them. could have relied upon the word
of Mexicans and laid down their arms
They should never have list to a
proposition to surrender. The memory
of massaeres. committed on Americans
and the violation of flags of truce, should
have told so brave and intelligent man
as Crabb to depend upon his arms rath'
er than Mexican honor.
The time will come when the recol.
lection of the deed at Cavorca at the
moment another Taylor shall order "a
little more grape" will impel the Amer
lean soldier to fl the cannon to the muz.
Gle perhaps on the spot where the foul
murder of brave men was committed, tc
avenge their death. The taunt thai
Mexican hogs are fattening on the Aesk
of "los Yankees" will, like curses, come
home to roost.

Blood and Thunder.-The Shasta
Courier wants to know of the State
Journal if the term poltroon in an article
on the Courier was intended to apply to
its Editors proximately or remotely, and
adds: "Poltroon" is word which GER
tain city editors are very fond of handy

ears, however, it sounds very unpleas-

and hence we cannot think that tn ey

es his proclamation that about 20c 900

DUTCH FLAT.-According to the Pla-
Ger Press, Dutch Flat is becoming one of
the most thrifty and prosperous towns
that county. Several substantial brick
buildings have been lately erected be-
sides numerous frame stores and dwell
ings and the whole town wears the
business-like appearance of young
city. Town lots are held enormously
high, ranging from $500, to $500. but
for which its growth would be still more
rapid.
The Nevada journal., 1857-11-13

Sather g. CAurch.-As we believed
the firm of Sather & Church has not
been found wanting in ability to meet
every demand against it. The house is
perfectly solvent and safe and no holder
of paper upon the concern will lose a
dollar by it. 1t is house supporte d
and sustained by honorable men. No
banking institution in San Francisco has
shown itself faster friend of the mer-
chants of that city. The good will of
the mercantile community is therefore
interested in sustaining the credit of the
house, which if nothing more will go far
towards affecting a compromise with
frightened creditors to the benefit of
Sather & Church. We learn that am
pie arrangements have been made. and
that the house, is ready to extinguish
every liability. This is gratifying in
telligencc to the whole State. No
prominent banking firm can fail without
affecting the entire community directly
and indirectly. The loss to individuals
is nothing in comparison to the shock
given 20 public confidence which has
never been too firm since the sinking of
Adams & Co. and other irresponsible
concerns. linn ense sums are at pres
ent on general deposit in the gold dust
marts of the state, or loaned at small
rates to business men hitherto deemed
safe. These sums to a large extent
must be called home whenever public
confidence is weakened by an important
failure, and thus the circulating medium
of the country, already too contracted
is lessened to the serious detriment OF
all classes. The resumption of Sather
& Church we regard in the like of a
public benefit, and the destruction OF
the firm a public calamity.

San Francisco, Nov. 10, '57.


Ed. Nerada Jonrnal:-Knowing your
valuable weekly to be sound on all
questions of public economy, have set
out to enlighten your readers little on
the subject of the new bank that has
been started here by that old and we'll
known pioneer Sam Brannan, Esq.
1st. The first novelty introduced by
this gentleman is in the security offered
for the fulflment of all his contracts, by
the pledge of $3.50, 900 worth of real es-
tate, including the granite buildings on
Montgomery street known as the Ex-
press Building, Armory Hall, and the
one Oil the N. E. corner of Montgomery
and Sacramento streets. All of these
and much more productive property
have been conveyed by deeds of trust
to three responsible gentlemen, for the
purpose of securing all the creditors of
the bank. Other banks give no securi-
ty at all.
I'd. Depositors on time certificates
will be allowed three per cent interest
for their money, instead of being G. ar
ged at that rate for its safe keeping !;
thus realizing six per cent per annum to
depositors in favor of this institution as
compared with others.
Sd. No moneys thus deposited will
be loaned except on bond and mort
gage. But to farmers, mechanics and
manufacturers depositing securities, and
intending to use the money in the de-
velopment Of home industry the rate
charged will be lower than ever offered
in California.
The object in view is to afford to
small depositors a safe and permanent
place for the keeping of their money,
and the savings department will he man
aged throughout on the same principles
as govern the Savings Banks of New
York, Boston and Baltimore.
A movement is on foot here to induce
the next Legislature to pass an act,
which they have the power to do under
the Constitution, whereby all banks
shall be obliged to pledge a certain cap
ital for the payment of their depositors.
Our Constitution, Sec "a, Art. III, pro-
vide for the establishment of associations
under general laws, for the deposit of
gold and silver; but it forhids the issue
Of paper money. To enforce this sec
ton, $50 as to cut off the agitation now
going on in certain papers, in favor Of
such amendments as will allow of paper
currency,) and yet protect us against
private bank swindles. is the object of
this movement. Undoubtedly the mi
ners, to a man, will second the motion,
for there is no class in the community
more deeply interested than they, i'll
the subject of bank securities. 1t is to
be hoped that your paper, as well as the
balance of the country press, will yield
hearty support to a movement, whose
success will be the signal for the ban
ishment of foreign capital, and the en-
ployment of our own in thousand de-
partments of domestic production.

FRIDAY MORNING, NOV. 18th, 1857.

Findncial--1Ne Prospect -Iu conse-
quence of the time required to obtain
coin from the Philadelphia mint in ex-
change for California bars, the bankers
of the East in the present stringency of
the money market, have ordered the
shipment Of no more bullion, and ingots
are sold at discount of about two per
cent in New York. 1t requires but lit
tie reflection to discover the effect of this
course pursued by Wall street, upon US.
Tie mint at San Francisco is not in OPP
Grafton, and though advertised to open
on the 10th will not get fairly under
way till the first of December or there.
aboats and not in time to prevent steam
ers from lessening the circulating medi-
urr Of the State from FIVE to seven mill
lions, which, near the close of the dry
season, is an alarming drain upon our
contracted currency. Such an impover-
ishment of the currency of the State can
hardly be attended but with evil, and
that too of no short duration. The mon
etary exhaustion of the Eastern world
must call for a constant flow of the COL
den stream from the western fountains,
leaving little chance to restore the loss
which the five or seven millions will Gre
ate in our currency. The loss once sus-
tanned must be endured unless a dam to
the flow can be suggested. There is
no check which can be relied on for Sc
curity. The money once gone from our
shores is hopelessly gone for ever, and
nothing appears to stay the shipment of
about four millions month in the scar
cest times, while as the quantity of gold
IN the market increases, proGigality in
Its use keeps pace with every accretion.
In view of the ills threatened us there
is but one recourse, economy and mutual
forbearance. If we have disposition
to indulge in further Injuries, let us dis
pensc with as many of them as possible
for time longer. A more convenient
moment may arrive when our utmost
ambition may be gratifed. The ladies
of Carthage dispensed with their flo W
ing locks at the calls of country to make
ropes for engines of war in times Of
emergency. American ladies are sure
ly not less patriotic, and may concenient-
iy do without an extra skirt of superHu-
GUS dimensions when hard times threat

of the candles of economy when the sun
of prosperity has set will work wonders

proposes the following hints, from which
our representatives in Congress may get
several good texts:
For the Journal.
Mr.. Editor PLEASE call the atten-
ton of our Representative in Congress
to the wants of the mineral, commercial
and financial interests of the people of
California. Ask them to lint to Uncle
Sam that miners by the sweat of their
brows accompanied with privation, ex-
posture and danger by caving of banks,
and shafts, crushingo of tunnels and drifts
settling, produce greater amounts of
gold for coinage than any other country
on the globe.
Hint to Uncle Sam that we believe
the apparatus for assaying and coming
at the San Francisco mint is entirely
too limited to accommodate the business
required of it. Hint to Uncle Sam that
the people of California believe the mint
can and ought to be enlarged, the en-
largement to be a section by itself, so
that while one apartment is overhauling,
cleaning and repairing, the other can
be kept in full blast; thus the crcula-
ting medium of the country will uni.
formly continue the same and the neces-
sity of treasuring up large quantities of
coin for the purchase of gold dust while
the mint is under repair, be avoided -
Please request Senators Gwin and
Frederick to mention to Uncle Sam
| that before the miners commenced dig
ging for gold in California there was no
percentage charged for coinage; the ex-
pense Of the mint being paid out of the
United States treasury, and the people
of California know it.
Tell Uncle Sam we pry for it and
want our gold coined in the United
States, giving honorable and profitable
employment to our own citizens instead
of shipping it in bars to Europe imme-
diately on its arrival in New York by
California steamers.
Hint to Uncle Sam, we, miners indi-
rectly pay the whole expense of COIN
age, the percentage being deducted
from the value of our gold dust by those
who purchase it, or by the mint if it coins
it, and we know it.
Hint to Uncle Sam, prices are high in
California, and it takes big heap of
coin to supply the necessities of trade,
that the people don't want the mint to
stop at all, and want it large enough to
accommodate its customers when they
want grist ground.
Hint to Uncle Sam how distressing it
would be should banks in the other
States all at once stop issuing notes du-
ring two months. say September and
October, just as the heavy fall trade and
produce operations commence, and
Hint to the representatives of those
other States how similarly we are situa-
ted by the stoppage of the San Fran
cisco mint.
In conclusion, more than hint to I'm
Gle Sam that the people of California
do not wish to ask for any thing not
clearly right. and only wish to be taken
into consideration and properly dealt by.
