ance. 4 portion OF the city is built on hills,
which attain quite respectable altitude.
From the tops of these fine view can be
obtained. .
4 large portion OF the city is built on
land made by filing out into the bay. To
protect this made land and also to prevent
the anchorage from being destroyed, a sea-
wall has been built in front Of the city.
On landing at the ferry in the city the first
thing required is good hotel. This is
easily found, as the city abounds with hotels
Of every description. The Grand Palace
Hotel (this is said to be the handsomest and
largest in the United States( the Grand
Hotel, COSMOPOLITAN, Occidental, and Lick,
are first class, both in fare and price. The
charges are from three to five dollars per
day. There are many other good hotels at
charges from two to two and half dollars
per day. Then there are great number OF
cheap houses from twenty to twenty-five
dollars per month.
The climate is indeed unsurpassed by that
Of any other place. There is but little rain
during the year-only about half that OF the
eastern States. In the summer there is no
rain at ALL
The city has many magnificent private
residences, and cosy little home cottages, or
namented with evergreens, creeping vines,
and beautiful flowers. The yards and
grounds are laid out very tastefullr, with
neat gravelled-walks, mounds, statues,
ponds, and sparkling fountains. There are
great many churches OF sects OF all kinds,
including several Chinese GLOSS Houses
The Jewish synagogue is the finest house
OF worship here. =. .,~s'
The markets OF San Francisco are features
Of the city and are very interesting to the
stranger. Fruits are in great profuslon and
perfection. .-ts 1870
China Town is situated above Kearny
street, which is the principal street OF the
city, and occupies about eight or ten blocks
These streets are occupied exclusively by
the 81 Heathen Chinee." ..... r.
The "Clif House," six miles west Of
the city, is a delightful drive, and

At the HClif" we meet the great Pacific
ocean face to face in all it's splendor. About
two hundred yards from shore are the seal.
rocks. These rocks are alive with seals and
sea-lions, yelling and barking. "
The population OF San Francisco is, l sup
pose, about two hundred and fifty Thousand
and is a mixture of people from the ola
States, MeXicans, Spaniards, Welsh, ana
few Indians. Occasionally negro is seen.

casion it was necessary to recall troops from

argued that the Democracy of the North as

THE Most LUCRATIVE OF ALL CROPs.-1es-
terday friend made us present OF some
tobacco raised from Cuba seeds by Colonel
Wood, of Fluvanna county. We made
some of it into rude cigars and smoked
them, and we can assure our readers that
we have seldom met with tobacco OF such
exquisite flavor, though produced in Cuba
itself. Moreover, the leaf was somewhat
new, and its quality would have been even
superior had it had q year or two more
of age. This splendid article of Virginia
growth has shown that il we were to intro
duce the culture Of Spanish tobacco into
the Old Dominion, Americans need never
send to Cuba for it, when we conld grow
the plant Of fully as good quality as is
possible in the West indies NoJolE

mining stocks market in San Francisco has
become the subject OF newspaper contro-
versy, the Chronicle publishing strong
"bear" articles, which the CdH and Butte-

California and Virginia Consolidated Mines,
telegraphs from Virginia City denying the
stories circulated disparaging to the condi-
ton Of the mines, which he declares never
looked better. Well-informed persons in

the Herald special from Bismarck:
The steamer josephine, with Colonel
Hughes, OF General Terry's stsG, arrived
this morning. Terry has moved lis supply
depot from Powder river to Big Horn,
where he still wants reinforcemenas and
supplies. The Far West reached that point
Monday. Terry's Crow scouts, who left
after The Little Big Horn battle, have re-
turned. sr ts,3
INDIANS IN THE MOUNTAINS.
They report Indiansg in the Big Horn
mountains ready for business. They could
not be induced to pass in that vicinity. An
effort was made on Terry's part to commune
cate with Crook, and the scouts reported
they were driven back on the 9Th and again
on the 9th. On the latter date couriers were
escorted up Tullock's Fork some distance
and struck across through the Rosebud
region. These are the messengers, Colonel
Hughes thinks, that General Crook speaks
Of in his recent official report.
SITTING BULBS DEATH NOT CREDITED.
Colonel Hughes does net credit Sitting
Bulls death, and thinks the Indians loss
was much lighter than is reported. He
doubts if the troops, as reinforced, will be
able to engage them. General Terry has
asked for artillery, which Colonel Hughes
hopes to take back with him. II
LARGE GOLD STORIES.
A large train came in to-day from the
Black Hills for supplies. They report no
Indians or traces of them. They bring big
gold stories, however. It is alleged shat
one firm Of four men have taken out $780,
600 in gold within the past three months.
The majority OF people on the hills, how
ever, are idle, and some are destitute.

COLLAPSE OF THE FAsT-MAIL SERVICE NORTH.
WASHINGTON, July 22.-All service on the
special or fast trains is withdrawn. The
service in other respect remains as at pre-
sent. Mr.. Vail. superintendent of the rail-
way mail service, says the Department is not
crippled as much as was generally supposed.
From New York to st Louis and the South
west the mail leaves at P. NJ. over the
Pennsylvania railroad. Mails from the
Southwest will be forwarded East by way Of
Toledo and Cleveland, Ohio, and the South
west will hardly notice the change except to
New England. No changes are noted on
the Southern Atlantic coast or Middle South
routes.
ETHAN ALIENS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTRA

WASHINGTON, July 22.-A very prominent
Liberal Republican, supposed to be the
author of the resolution on which Ethan
Allen bases his action is quoted thus
'EThe announcement by Ethan Allen, in
which he commits the Liberal Republicans
to the support of Hayes and Wheeler, pub
lished in the Tribune of the 21st, was made
without authorization. Aliens instructions
under the resolution adopted by the Liberal
Republican Committee at their meeting in
New York were simply in certain contin-
gency to announce that the Liberal Repub-
lican organization would not hold a ,conven-
ton to make presidential nomination.
That contingency arose in the nominations
made at St. Louis, and Allen went beyond
his Instructions in his announcement"
