DG. HAYES IN ENGLAND.-Two editions of s.The
Arctic Boat Journey" by DR.. Hayes, have been
published in England, ,-one by Low & Co., and
one by Bentley OF London, the latter being edited
with introduction and notes by Dr. Norton
Shaw. The Ahennum, which rarely praises an
American book, says the work is ''ful of interest
so full that could not lay it down until we had
read it through. 1t is "A well-wrtten narrative of
terrible privations and sutlerings, borne with a
tortitude and patient endurance, which may have
been equalled, but certainly never surpassed.'-
Alter devOting four columns to the volume, the
Aheno,na thus speaks of the author: "Dr HAYES
most interesting and well-written narrative shows
that he is fully entitled to take rank with the most
intrepid and heroic Arctic voyagers. - Boston

GRAND CoMBINATGoN OF RUBBER INTEREsTs.-
We hear that a grand combination of the hereto
fore hostile and pugnaciOus rubber interes ts-both
of Day and Goodyear-is about to take place. A
company, or association, with the command of a
large sum of money, will buy out all the interests
and combine in themselves the manufacture of the

the largest operations upon this continent Boston

sentiments of that letter, acknowledged the pro-
prlety of such inquiries my part, and also of
such proposed response on the part of Sayers, and
did what he could by letters and telegraph des-
patches to get Sayers here to Until Satur-

SOMETHING ABOUT FRoes.-The Sacramento
news says that after the rain the other day,
a large number of small toads were seen
hopping about in the streets of Sacramento.
1t asks did they fall" We answer we don't
know We will state however, that on
Wednesday morning, immediately after the
last rain, large number of small toads or
frogs, were seen at Hart's Soap Factory on
Fourth street west of A. Some think they
fell with the rain during the night. A num-
Der of them were found in the lye vat or tnb.
We remember to have read accounts oi
snakes of small kind being found in large
numbers Immediately after rain, and the
question was did they fall?

very properly called on for speech at the

was best fitted for the traitorous task. Born
and reared in the North it was proper that he
should act as the head of a small and ultra
squad of Southern men, and teach them to
protect their rights He has labored outside
of the Democratic partyfO for the last ten years
to create disunion sentiment in the South !;
and he now imagines that long years of sedi-

Illinois has nominated Mr.. Hamlin for Presi-

Way THEY DO lr-The reason that the
persons prominent in trying to get people TO
rally to the standard of theBolters at Balti-
more, are working as they are, is that they
know that it is q matter of life or death, po-
litically, with them. They have nothing to
gain if DOUGLAS is elected and they want to
see the Democracy defeated. The Democrat
ic masses will have sense enough to see
through these shallow sehemers.

will yield him a hearty support if he has
been regularly nominated. 1t will hoist the
names tomorrow if the mails confirm
the telegraphic report. 1t insists that
the State Democratic Central Committee
shall call convention at once, and
asserts that California must be kept Demo-
cratic in any event. Nugent and Page, of

Mr. EDIroR.-The shabby reception of

be in part attributable to suspicious formed
after the invitation given them to visit the

those who should have welcomed our gal
liant soldiers, may have taken second
thought, and for fear of cordially welcom-
ing some of those detestable abolitionists to
their city, declined doing that which CON-
munity of negroes would have been

which can be irrigated. | have known,
in the dry season, the earth to be opened
in large assures in many places, caused by
extreme dryness, no rain having fallen for
five or six months, although this drouth
is somewhat alleviated by heavy dews; yet
| do not think those dews sufficient to cul-
tivate the cotton plant. There is coffee,
pimento, arrow-root, sugar-cane, and all
tropical fruits, roots, and vegetables, which
grow spontaneously, or with but little la

sheep, the mutton being very superior.
Poultry of all kinds thrives, with the ex-
ception of geese. Turkeys are rather hard
to raise, but after they reach certain
age, and are acclimated, as it were, they
are very superior.
As before observed, if on perusal of

good and substantial reasons why the su-

the cause of the pecuniary situation of the

plan race, enables me to Judge of their

it is only the want of the civilization of

if not superior, to the Caucasian, notwith-
standing all the obloquy cast on them by
a pro-slavery press and people.
