Number Three is informed that we

thousand, but will get more as soon as
we can steal another tribe from the
Quaker Indian Commissioners. For
the distance and route from Frisco and

Perils OF a California Correspondent.

Alas! that | should ever have put
pen and paper together. IfJob desired
his enemy to write book, can as
innocently desire mifie-t become a
newspaper correspondent for the Paci-
fic Coast. When the .dashing team of
six horses on gallop comes in from
the North it is omir Gus OF labor and
sorrow. Yonr correspondent APP
proaches box Isl with fear and trem-
bling and receives his dose of interrO-
cations. The first opened to-day is
from a tooth-carpenter in New Or
leans, who opens with wall OF Il
whole page in one sentence OF hun
bred heavy words on the political de-
generacy Of Louisiana in general and
New Orleans in particular; and then
feels sufficiently relieved to inquire
the price of land in the "San Gabriel
Orange Grove Associations rubber
gums, gold filing and board bills.
The second is from Ohio, and wants to
know the price of cattle weighing
twelve hundred pounds, also mich
COWS, land, beef-steak, butter, cord
wood, boots and shoes, honey, hops,
house rent, carpenters wages, ETC.,
also if there are schools here and what
denominations abound ? After taking
breath we open number three, from
the State of Tom Scott, and it inquiries
how many people there are in Los An
geles, how far-i is,from Sacramento
and San Francisco and how to get here
from those suburban villages; what
text books are used in the schools,
what are clerks wages in stores, and
what are the chances of getting situa-
ton ? ..aE Il.-Hlls.
A fourth from New York State, says
he knew my father thirty years ago,
and therefore feels authorized to claim
an intimate acquaintance with the
writer, and therefore reaches for me in
few vastly important questions: He
wants to know the dark side Of the
country probably SO as to quarrel With
his neighbor who wants to come
here,) what kind of a winter we have,
and when and how much it rains?
The fifth, from pious female from
the City of Churches, earnestly desires
to hear of the number of churches
and the welfare of young men whom
she hears do not attend church..
The sixth, from Indiana, wants to
know If / really think this O healthy
country, and what diseases we have,
and what a man can do with forty
years of age, commercial education,
five thousand dollars and a small
family? s..s....~
Number seven is from the same
State, from an unmarried lady who
fears to grow old without providing a
vineyard to support her in old age.
who ever heard a husband called
a vineyard before? Is it because they
bear SO much wine?)
Number eight, Is from German
who learns that / and other fellow
countrymen, are establishing colony
and he claims room as man and
brother. Come In brother German

DR.. Drysdale, = noted physician Of London,
tobacco Hs denounces it ~ q deteriorating
force which is acting upon this generation with
ever-increasing power, demanding the open pro-
test Of medical authorities against its evil effects
OF winch he enumeraten direful list, asthma
and liberation Of the mucous membrane filling
the most prominent places. Opposition to the
use OF the weed, he asserts, has almost ceased,
its consumption is becoming universal, and it's
effects on the races of Europe and America
entails who use it in much less powerful form.
We have nothing to reply to DR.. Drysdale's
authoritative assertions Of the physical facts
which are his particular pigeon" but demur
TO his statement that protests against the prsc-
tiee he denunciates have been generally silenced,
seeing the consistency with which Performers"
and "Progressives' include tobacco among the
evils against which they war, and having per-
sonal knowledge Of many who refrain from its
use less on hygienic than on moral grounds.
Besides, the opposition Of ono half of humanity
to the much abused weed is u potent spirit that
will never down. Women hate tobacco, not sim
ply because 1t is unhealthy or deteriorating to
the mind but for what they openly style it's mas
tiness. A spittoon is to them the abomination
sitting in the holy place, and the discharge Of
salivs OH floor Or pavement the objectionable
sin. Very young ladies may protest with Becky

New York may sneer a Philadelphia ~ much
~ it likes but it cannot laugh away facts There

or two which show decided waking up of our
immediate noighbor, and that tho contemptuous
manner Of tho metropolis towards the Pennsyl-
wanna village may have Just a soupcon Of jesl.
ousy in it. or such character are the back
hand notices which New York from time to time
makes OF the American Line. But 1t does not
condescend to explain how 1t ia while most OF
the British lines-sailing into New York but
owned abroad--are doing no business to speak
Of, while some Of them indeed are lying entirely
idle, that the Philadelphia and Liverpool steam
ships have as much business Ms they cali attend
to. People outside Of New York can see very
clear reason for this state Of things In the desire
Of the public to encourage home enterprise, and

the revival Of American commerce, but the me-
tropois is welded to its foreign idols.
The latest illustration OF these facts-which
are patent to all intelligent men,-A given in the
ruinous competition Of the British steamship
Lines for the passenger trade, and particularly
for the steerage traffic. The result Of the cut
throat policy Of the Cunard, National, and other
lines is that the price Of a passage to or from
Europe has been reduced to SIS, and with every
prospect Of still further reduction. II the

Capt. A. H. Chittenden, Of the firm OF VIM.
1nderleid 4 Co., general dealers in merchandise,
OF this town, was drowned, on Saturday night,
in the creek near Milford Bridge. How or why
Is mystery.
1t seems That on Saturday night. at 1Ols
oc.ock, he ate plate Of oysters At Shoots
saloon, and left. Not returning home to his
family during the night, search was made early
In tile morning. and his clothes was soon found
upon the wharf and with them towel. 1t is
supposed by having towel that he went there
to wash Near the wharf, the water is shoal,
but 4 or feet from the wharf, 1t il Six or eight
feet deep. He might accidentally have stepped
out too far and drowned, ~ he could not swim.
It has led to all kind Of conjectures, bnt the
above facts seem to be all that ia positively
known. Why he should go At such late hour
L. mystery. His body was recovered about 5
O'Clock on Sunday morning. He was entirely
Invested Of all clothing.
