CALIFORNIAN WINES IN New Yo K-Don
Pedro Sainsevain, of the firm of Sainsevain
Brothers, the wealthie1t dealers in native
wines in our State, intends starting on the
next steamer for New York, where he will
establish an agency, or, perhaps, open a
house under his own supervision for the sale
of California wines. lie has shipped one
hundred pipes of white wine, and 200 cases
of sparkling California which went en- the
clipper Willetts, Derby, Tropic, and Golden
Fleece. The first of these sailed hence on the
25th October, and will arrive in New York
about the same time with Mr. S. The wine
is of fine quality, of the vintage of 1857
and 1858, and will be improved by the sea
voyage Hereafter, the Sainsevains will
make regular shipments to New York; and
in case that the demand should be Ian ge
there, they will ship directly from San Pedro.
They have now l65, 900 gallons of still wines
IN their cellars here and in Los Angeles, and
they have 45 000 bearing vines in Los Angc-
les, and 10000 in Santa Clara Valley, so that
they can make every year, from $4,000 to
10000 gallons from their own vineyards. 1t
is an ascertained fact, that the vineyards of
Los Angeles produce four times as much wine
per acre, annually, on an average, as do the
vineyards in the French province of the
Gironde 1t is matter of great Importance
to the State that our wines should have a
reputation and sale in New York, for the
production is increasing very rapidly, and
this year it will amount to half million gal
Ions more than it was last year,-Atta.

EMPRESS EUGENIE.-When at the town of
Dunkilk, in Scotland, the Empress Eugene
worshiped God in the new Protestant Cathe-
dral or Parish Church of the ancient city,
A correspondent writes:
There were two other ladies and two gen
tlemen. They were in the Dukes seat
Everything was just the same as if no per-
son OF Importance was present. The Duke
of Athol and Miss McGregor were in their
accustomed places, and the servants behind
them as usual Mr.. Wilson preached from
Luke XIX, 9, from the words, This day is
salvation come to this house" And in the
prayer, after our own Queen and ROYAL fam
lily, he prayed for blessing for that royal
lady who is now sojourning in that belov-
ed country, and that God would be pleased
TO bless her visit for the Object sought-that
she would soon be restored to her usual
health, and that her visit might also tend to
cement the friendship of the two great ma
tions, etc, etc; but he took no notice of her
being present in our assembly. So quietly
was everything d done that no one knew
anything about it until they saw her coming
into the church, and there was no one star
ing.

EXCITEMENT AT JACKSON TENN.-We learn
from the Memphis Appeal that a man by the
name OF Marvin, a singing master, was rode
on a rail through the streets Of Jackson
Tennessee, and required to leave the place.
The excitement grew out of the fact that
several negro daguereotyyes,a as well as several
suspicious letters, were found in his trunk
Marvin had stood well in the society of Jack
son, being the leader of the choir in the Pres
byterian Church, but the discoveries made in
his trunk, together with the fact of his being
u New Englander raised not only the suspi.
cions but the indignation of the community,
which resulted in giving the gentleman a
Lincoln ride as announced above.

An inquest was held, by the Coroner of

The wide reputation which DR.. J.
EEOStetter's "STOMACH BITTERs" have attained
during the past year bespeaks its excellence in more
forcble manner than any words which we can offer.
1t renovates pures and strengthens the SYSTEM and
aids the stomach in the performance Of its functions,
It is regarded all sides sovereign specific, and
therefore, to procure it in the best possible way
should be the object Of the public. We commend it
with more than usral zeal and confidence, believing
and knowing, do, that it stands foremost of the
many preparations of the day,for mparting strength
vgor and tone to the SYSTEM and possessing the
rative powers for all similar diseases arising from
disordered stomach. In the most severe cases of
cramp, diarrhga, and weakness in the stomach, the
"Rtters" have been rSidly tested and always with
the greatest success,

vid Hume's will rims thus:
leave to my old friend Mr.. John Home. Of
kildutf, ten dozen of my old claret at his
choice, and one single bottle of that other IL
quor called port | also leave to him six
dozen of port, provided that he attesis under
his hand, signed John H,lme that he has him

By this concession, he will at once terminate

The two differences were as the mode of

Home detested.
