Ancient and Modern Empires.

According to the estimates before us, Rus
ala surpasses Rome in extent of territory,
and contains an army considerably more nu-
merous. France and Austria rank next to
Russia in the number of their standing ar
mics, and could bring singly in the field a
much larger force than the whole Roman
Empire. The military force Of the Pagan
Empire is here estimated at 100000 men;
the Christian monarchies of France and
Austria are each of them reputed to main
tain an army Of 65O,OOO, and when we re-
fleet upon the invention of gunpowder and
the enormous force of artillery, it is evident
that any one of the frst-rate powers of
modern Europe could bring into the field a
destructive force that could sweep from the
face of the earth the thirty legions of Adri-
an. The very division Of Europe into a
number of involves this increase of soldiery.
In the old Roman Empire the great Hedi-
terranean Sea lays as peaceful as lake, and
the Roman ships had nothing to dread but
the winds and the waves; whereas in modern
Europe many quite artificial boundaries have
to be guarded by an arm Of soldiers. Bel
gium defends her flats with 5000 men,
and the marshes of Holland are secured by
10000 Dutch. Hitherto everything has
tended to develope the military power in
Christendom.

American Acquisition Of Sonora.

A Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Press, writing on September 18th,
says:
The movement for the acquisition of Son
ora has met with universal favor. Even
England consents, provided that the sum
paid by the United States shall be so condi-
toned that it will insure the payment of
interests to her own bondholders. With
this condition we, of course, can have moth
ing to do in the treaty Of annexation; but
it is highly probable that, whatever faction
shall at the time hold sway over the bolster
Gus elements of the Mexican confederacy,
the necessity for money to sustain itself in
power will compel a ready acquiescence in
that demand, which is just of itself outside
of any other consideration.
The completion of Lieutenant Beale's
wagon road over the 35th parallel will inc
vitably throw large population into that
State, in any event, and then the fields and
towns the vineyards and mines Of silver
and gold there. which have been almost de-
serted for a century and half, will again
TEEN with life and vgor. SO, too, if it re-
main in the power of the Mexican confeder-
acy. The close proximity of our people,
and the necessity for their trade being car
ried across it towards the sea, will throw its
settlement and the control of its commerce
and destiny into the hands of our own citi

another column, indicates where to obtain reia-
BILE and competent physician 1t is seldom that
we are called upon to bear testimony in favor of
the skill of any physician, but sense Of drty as
we'll as justice demands that we should not pass
DR.. Czapkay by, without something more than a
mere mention. Unlike the greater portion of
those who thrust themselves and their nostrums
before the public, whose practices are empirical,
DR.. Czapkay is gentleman of rare medical and
scientific attanments, having held the position of
chief surgeon of the liberating army during the
late Hungarian Revolution, and is possessed of
all the requisite experience and skill for the sue
cessu practice of his profession. 1t is to the care
and advice of such physician we would recon-
mend all suffering from the effects of sexual or
private diseases feeling assured that in all such
complaints, whether arising from infection, in
discretion, self-abuse or loss of virilty, he can
guarantee, from his extensive practice, speedy
and permanent cure. To those suffering from the
effects of physical and mental debility, we would
say let common sense take the place of false mo-
desty, and seek such advice as will save you from
an untimely grave. and lead you back again to
pristine health, consult DR.. Czapkay, whom we
cheeriully endorse as sklltul and tried physi-
clan, capable of coping with and successfully
eraGicating those self inflicted miseres the evils
of empirical practices and all diseases of semi
nal nature. Dr. Czapkay's rooms are on Sacra-

GREAT Cry AND LITTLE WooL.-Under
the commercial head Of our paper, tLis morn
ing, will be found statement of all the de-
posts Of gold dust from Frazer river made
in the San Francisco Mint. 1t appears that
the frs: deposit was made in June; that the
number of deposits made in that month was
nineteen; in July, eight; in August, seventeen,
and in September forty sx-the total amount
of all the deposits b ing 1852 ounces, worth
$4,000. 1t is said-how truly, we do not
know-that some considerable amount of
Frazer river dust has been sent to England;
but it is not likely that more has gone there
than has come to San Francisco While we
are not ready to denounce the Frazer river
mines as humbug, we must say that, SO far,
there has been "a great cry and little WOOL"

"A gentleman, noted for his humor, travel

SINGULAR SuPERsTITIoN.-The Fresno In

the Doctors or Medicine men. They declare
them to be Witches that they can't cure the
sick, and that there will be no more rain or
grass seed till they are extingushed. Seven
or eight physicians have in consequence suf-
fered martyrdom. One Of the doctors came
running to the camp of Ridgway, on the
Fresno, and asking protection. lie was
pursued by some sixteen Indians, who de-
manded him of Ridgway, and gave the above
reasons why they ought to have him. Their
modest request was ref 'sed, but few days
after the doctor venlured out and they got
