ST. LOUIS, October 15.
The Overland California Mail, with dates to
the Goth ult., reached here last night The
Pacific Railroad Convention adopted Resolu-
tions favoring the Central roule, and appointed
committees to mature plans to be recommended
to the Legislature and Congress, and then ad-
journed to meet at Sacramento in January.
Judge Terry has been placed under 10000
bonds.
The schooner Lewis Perry arrived from the
Amoor River with Russian-Asia advices to
August 18th. A small steamer capable of as
cending the Amoor river 1000 miles had been
launched at Nicolauski by company of Amer
leans, who have tho privilege of navigating the
river. The Russian officials chow the greatest
favor to American enterprises and encourage
immigration Of American mechanics. The
bark Militia was lost In Amoor river June 22d.
The vessel and cargo was insured at Boston.
The Sacramento correspondent Of the San
Francisco Bulletin says that project is ON foot
among the Republicans, to exclude SCOTT and
Burch, CongreSsmen elect, from the House of
Representativ 's, on the ground that the Cali
fornis Legislature neglected to district the
State as required by Congress, or to comply
with the Constitution, which says "that Repre-
sentatives shall be elected every two years."
Nearly the whole town Of Monte Christie wa:
destoyed by Are on the 10th ult. Loss $4,000.

Springs, involving a loss of $4,000. 30
Upwards Of sixty Pitt River Indians have

terminated.

Ms- The Absilss Medicals asserts that
insomnia, or want Of rest at night, may be
cured By sugar candy. 1t appears that sugar,
under its crystalised form, Is decided
hynoptlc, and much superior to most other
remedies Of the kind, If we consider its perfect
innocence. TO use it, put Eve or six pieces Of
sugar candy, Of the size Of hazel-nut, into
your mouth on going to bed, and by the time
they are half melted away, the desired effect
will have been produced. The sleep which it
causes, is not like the artificial ono produced
by other drugs, but it is as beneficial and
invigorating in Its effects upon the system as
natural repose-in fact, 1t Is q sweet sleepy.
1t states, however, that sugar candy is only
efectual against common insomnia, and would
be powerless IL that affection were caused by
apy other complaint.

NS- During last week family Of five
brothers congregated in Saratoga, whose
united ages when there were three hundred
and seventy-two years and six months.
They were the sons of James Webster, OF
Litchfeld, Conn.,, who lived to the age Of %
years. Their names and respective ages are:
James Webster, aged n; Russell Webster,
aged rs; Jarvis Webster, aged "a; Lyman
Webster, aged rs; Chester Webster, aged 6S.
Russell Webster is the father Of Mrs: Will
liam Carpenter, of Saratoga, at whose house
the gathering took place. They have been
one unbroken band Of brothers for over sixty
eight years, though this was the second time
in fifty years they have all met together.
All have been widowers, and two remain SO
yet They are all professors Of religion, and
members Of the Baptist Church. On the
evening before parting, as they believed,
"never to meet again on earth" they held
religious services, in which expressions OF
affection were freely mingled with praise and
thanksgiving to God for his care and protec-
ton of them all, and during which they ex-
horted each other to meet again in heaven.
The scene is described as intensely affecting
and interesting. ....... ...-.
