a better insight into American Life on the Paelnc
than from reading half dozen books. The paper
is as handsomely printed as any OF the trst-ciass
New York weeklies; and in point of literary ability
at least, equal to the average Of United States
journalism; We know SO little Of California, so
seldom nowadays meet either California men or
people in our -of-the-way seaport, that We are
necessarily struck with many of the features OF

sinstruction therefore of our readers, we propose
to give them the benefit OF such points in these

The very appearance of the Ne,os Letter is a
SURPRISE With the story of California and the ad-
ventures connected with it: in 1913, 49,, and 80
still fresh in our memories, we are surprised to
find here all the evidences Of an old and highly
developsdatate OF civilization. Some OF the ''Quo-

gings;n such as 'sGold bars-8.50a8.60. The re-
