capitalist has pursued with his unwel-
come attentions a charming little singer,
one of The favorites of the public, and
what is remarkable in Paris, a Lady who
is warmly attached 10 her husband, and
a model of pTopriety. He wrote a most
lattering letter to the lady, wherein he
proposed an engagement at the Italian
Theatre in London, where he is oil pow
er(ul, besides a handsome settlement, if
she would consent 10 accompany him in
his approaching journey to England
The lady Immediately presented the let
ter TO her husband. The latter, who is
| a nan Of wit and sense, and one of our
most clever JeuuYetoaists, instead Of talk
ing about daggerS, pistols and small
swords, immediately sat down, and, in
closing the afore mentioned letter to the
delinquents wife, added a few fines oI
his own:

New EiscoEelias Of Gold.

The report that gold has been found
in Iowa, is confirmed. The Dubuque
Times says hat gold exists in consiiera-
bic quantities in several counties.
The Keokuk Gale City says that a few
miles below Des Monies, men who have
been digging, average about three dol
lars per day. There are several places
in Polk county where men are digging,
and some very good specimens have been
found. At, Indianola ard Hartford,
Warren county, Mr.. Cleghorn saw spec
linens which were taken out o! the ground
al Soa,h River AMI Hartford. The lat
ter was dug by Mr.. C. Mckay, 4 per-
sonal friend Of Mr.. Cleghorn's. Al South
River, some eight or nine miles from In
dianola, twenty or thirty men aIe en-
ployed in turning the river. Some good
specimens have been found there, and
Mr.. G. has no doubt that some men have
got out as high as FIVE dollars a day,
while, Of course many get nothing at all.
It was near here hat a Dutch farmer
found. while blowing, a lump valued al
seventeen dollars. Good specimens had
also been found at ST. Charles, nine miles
beyond Indialola.
Mr.. Cleghorn also found confirmation
of the reports from Clark and Union
counties, in which there are probably one
hundred men at work.
The Prairie du Chen Courier says That
iEo young ladies. while digging in their
flower garden, found two Jumps Of pure
gold, one-half of which was pronounced
worth S120.
