A PRETTY CoNcET.-We saw yesterday, in
the parlor Of friend, a very beautiful conceit.
1t Is, Of course, the fancy Of lady, and con-
sists of the burr of pine tree placed in wine
glass half full Of water, and from between the
different layers Of the burr is shooting forth
green blades, bright, beautiful, refreshing. For
little thing we have seen nothing that so
pleased us with its beauty and novelty. And
the secret is this, the burr was found dried and
opened the different circles were sprinkled
with grass seed, and it was placed in wine
glass, with water In as above. In few days
the moisture and nourishment gave the burr
life and health the different circles closed and
buried within themselves the grass seed, and
few days more gave to the seed also life, sprout
and growth, and now a pyramid Of living green
beautifully relieved by the sombre hue of the
burr, 10 the resnlt--as pretty and novel a par
lor ornament as we have for a long while seen.
We do not know whether the idea was original
with the lady, but we do know that its success

uni,..l state. SILVER COIN.

We learn from an article in the San Francisco
Mercantile Gazette aud Shipping Register that
Mexican silver dollars are very scarce on this
coast, although they have commanded IL to
IA cents premium in this market, while Cali
fornia is suffering from plethora of silver
coin, and our bankers aud others are unable 10
get rid of their half dollars The cause of this
is stated to be that the Mexican dollar weighs
AIS grains, and has q tineness of 902 thou
sandths, while the American dollar weighs 4l21
grains and has iineness of 900 thousandths-
the actual value of the Mexican being l05 cents
and of the American 104 cents. Formerly, the
American half dollar was OF just half the weight
of the dollar piece aud of the same fneness,
and smaller silver coins In exact proportion.
The consequence was that the country was
drained of silver for foreign trade.
To remedy this evil, an act was passed by
Congress, in lS5S reducing the weight OF the
half dollar from 206l grains 70 l92 grains, and
the weight of smaller silver coins was proper
tionately reduced also; but the dollar piece was
left at its former weight, SO that now, while the
dollar piece is worth l04 cents, two bali dol
lars, or four quarters, or ten dimes, are worth
but 96 cents and mills. In foreign trade,
then, and particularly with the Chinese, Mexi-
can dollars are first in demand, and American
dollars next; but U. S. half dollars, and smaller
American silver coins, are drug in the mar
ket
The Branch Mint at San Francisco while it
has coined half, quarter, aud tenth dollars, in
abundance, has not yet coined single silver
dollar piece, and has no authority to coin them.
The merchants are satisfied, that If American
silver dollars could be procured, they would be
almost as acceptable abroad as the Mexican,
aud thus meet great and steadily increasing
want now felt by all merchants on this coast
engaged in the Asiatic trade In this cond-
tlon Of things, and at the request Of the mer-
chants, the Superintendent of the San Francisco
Mint has made application for permission to
coin silver dollar pieces, aud il is believed that
il will be granted him.

PRESIDENTIAL SPEcULATIoNs.--The New York
OF the Bulletin, of Feb. 9th says:

PRESIDENTIAL SPEcULATIoNs.--The New York
correspondent Of the Bulletin, of Feb. 9th says
The Little Giant, you will perceive, Is loom
ing up largely among the Democracy Of the
East, in spite Of bis continued reeusant attitude
toward the administration. At Hartford, the
other day, the Democrats met In caucus, to ap-
point delegates to their several Nominating z
Conventions, where Douglas men were elected
by vote OF nearly five to one. Strong reso-
lutiOns in favor Of putting Mr.. Douglas in nom
inaton for the Presidency were also passed
nearly unanimously.
All through the New England States, and in
this State as we'll, the Little Giant seems to be
the favorite among the Democratic masses. In
some places, the Administration has been
obliged to appoint Douglas men to Office, be-
cause there were no other Democrats to be
found. This was the case in Boston last week,
where Mr.. Ammdoun, strong and open
mouthed adherent OF the Illinois Senator was
appointed Naval Officer.
On the other hand, there is evidence afioat
that some OF the wireworkers OF the party are
busy in initiating an entirely new movement
which is doubtless intended to act as cOun-
terpoise to the Douglas influence in the party,
especially in the South and West. This move
ment looks to the putting of Ex-Prcsdent
Pierce upon the Presidential track in 1860.
Jefferson Davis is said 10 be at the head of it,
and several heretofore prominent New Hamp-
shire politicians at its tail. Davis il Is said,
expects to make capital among the Gre-eaters
of the South against Douglas. because the lat
ter neglected to challenge his traducers in the
late war of words at the capital.

FROM BRIrIsH COLUMBIA-The birth day OF
Washington was celebrated by the Americans
at Victoria, in a most rational manner, by a
cessation Of all business. aud the stars and
stripes were seen floating from their dwellings.
But much excitement was caused by the refusal
of Gov. Douglas to allow them to fire salute
in honor of the occasion. An Indignation
meeting was held at the auction room of J. A.
McCrea, and violent speeches were made; but
1t was finally resolved to do nothing contrary
to the wishes of the authorities.
The brig Swiss Boy, of San Francisco, Capt
Weden, on her way from Port Oxford to Vic
toria, with cargo of lumber. sprung leak,
and on the 3lst of January put into Netinett
Sound the Captain having the intention of
beaehing the vessel and making repairs. On
the lst of February, the vessel was boarded
by several hundred Indians, who stripped her
Of her rigging, pi!laged the cabin, and robbed
the seamen of clothing, &c. The captain aud
crew of eight men were held prisoners for
several days, but ultimately managed to made
their escape.
A Scotchman named Hawley, OF Philadel-
phia, committed suicide on Fraser river, by
shooting himself with pistol, after trying to
shoot bis partner. He was believed to have
been deranged.

From Arizona and sonora.

We find In the Alta California n letter from
Tubcc, Arizona, Feb. 18th, from whichwo make
The following extracts:
Poor Sonora tits destined 10 he overrun in
some way. or by some people. Pcsquera has
gone south to take Mazatlan, and in his absence
the whole northern part of the State is full of
Apaches, who plunder and rob the Mexicans
without mercy. Not long since Capt. Ewell,
commandant at Fort Buchanan, made treaty
with all the different families of the Apaches,
excepting the Penals, quite insignificant num-
ber-one of the stipulations being 'that they
should not steal any stock in the Territory be-
longing to the United States" They were
very particular 10 ascertain the exact bounda-
ry, and now at least fifteen hundred are in So
nora, committing all manner of depredations.
The latest dates from Guaymas are to the
29th Of January. At that time no tidings had
been heard from the attack on Mazatan that
were reliable. A report was current that Pes
queira had been defeated, but IL needed confir-
nation. Capt. Stone and his party were at
Guaymas, doing but little. One of his party
had had some difficulty with the authorities, in
relation to the accidental woundng of child
in the street when shooting at dog. The man
was put in Jail; but on the representation of
Capt. Stone aud Judge Rose, the U. S. Consul
he was set at liberty. Another difficulty has
come up, in relation to quantity Of arms
which citizen OF Guaymas had received from
San Francisco. Pesqueiras officers immedi.
ately took possession of them, and shipped
them on a schooner to the army, near Mazat
Ian. Capt stones schooner Immediately got
off in pursuit, but, as she is slow saier. il is
thought she will not be able to overtake the
Mexican.
Thus troubles tbicken. Pesqueira will un-
doubtedly be beaten in the south, and unless
our government is in possession another Gov
crnor will undoubtedly be proclaimed. la the
meantime the State is being depopulated, the
ranches laid waste, and the stock driven off,
either by Apaches or by trading Americans.

FRAUDS COMING TO LIour-A dispatch from
Washington, of Feb. 4th, to New Orleans pa
per, says
The Committee appointed by the House to
examine into the charges Of corruption of the
Navy Department, of which Mr. Sherman of
Ohio Is Chairman, commenced taking testimo-
ny to-day, and ELECTED some facts which have
created . sensation in oficial quarters. The
testimony already before the Committee proves
that the most fragrant frauds have been com
mitted in the Navy Department. The most re.
cent disclosure relates to the agency establish
ed for the purpose of supplying the Navy with
coal. The testimony in this case proves that
large sums OF money were raised by means Of
the corrupt Influences and contracts of this
agency and used in Pennsylvania to influence
the elections last year, by corruptng the vot-
ers, and for other corrupt purposes, and this,
as Is alleged. under the immediate direction of
J: CLANCY Jones, who is implicated in other
