Tune GoLp Recion or CALIFORNIA, ~ Every thing in regard to this new El Do- rado is read just now with extraordinary avidity. The folowing is an extract from a letter received by the Secretary of the! Navy from a gentleman occupying an official position in Monterey : MoxTirey, Sept. 16, 1848, —The cit- izens of California are very anxious for the establishment of a branch mint in this territory. ‘There is very little coined money in the country, and the conse- quence is, they are oblidged to sell their ain and wheat at a ruinous sacrifice.— qfhe custom house duties are all required o be in coin, and this absorbs the little at still remuins in circulation. The peo‘yl’e are oblidged to carry their grain gold in their fobs, corners of their pock- et handkerchiefs, and in goose quills, for change. They want a United States mint, and have had many public meetings on the subject. | It is calculated that over two millions of dollars are taken out of the mines in rain gold, per month—and this sum will ge more than quadrupled another season. This grain gold is now shipped offin large quantities to Mexico, Chili and Peru, | where it will be coined under the insig- Q.i?yf those republics, and lost to the me- tallic basis of our own circulating medi- um. This gold can be secured to our own country only by a mint. Such an institution will bring the grain gold at' once to its intrinsic value, and sustain it| there; and save the poor emigrants who‘ get it out of the earth from the hands of‘ the speculators. It will do more to cher- ish emigration, than the appropriation of | millions for ordinary purposes, and will | at the same time swell immensely the | aggtogate of our national coin. l "he head of the emigrant column for the year has already reached California. i They will throw themselves en masse in-| the mines. There will also bea large' ‘omi ration from Oregon, and also from the%andwich Islands ; and there will be | heavy tide ever the Isthmus as soon as| e steamers are on their destined track. | hen the wealth of these gold mines is! eally known and believed in the United | States, there will not be wagons and | steamers enough that can be spared to | bring the emigrants here. You are nuw! all incredulous—you regard our state-| ments as the dreams of an excited imag- | iation—but what seems to you mere! fiction, is a stern reality. It is not gold, ' wthe clouds or in the sea, or in the cen- tre of a rock-ribbed mountain, but in the wil of California, sparkling in the sun ad glittering in its streams. It lies on the open plain, in the shadows of the deep ravines, and glows on the summits ofthe mountains, which have lifted for ages their golde¢n coronets to heaven, As an evidence of the facility with whith it 1s procured, let one or two facts suffice. Every sailor that now ships Irom a port in Califoruia, gets bis %30 per month, and but very few can be procured it those wages. Anoffer of 100 a month pould be rejeeted by nine-tenths of those low engaged in the mines. T'hey con- ider their labor there worth %20 a day, ind it often realizes them even more.— iven the poor ladian, when you talk of iring him, shakes his bag of gold in our eyes. I'he consequence is, we lave no hired laborers, no servants; ev- ry one must bluck his own boots. T'his ) practical democracy ; no theory, no alking about equality. We are all on a evel by that great law of circumstances rhickh nane can surmount. "I'he rounds f your ladder, it is true, are of gold—- ut your neighbor’s ladder runs just as Mgh. Dearn or Cor. Wy, Pork—Nearo Axcrrement.— A gentleman whoarrived ere yesterday morning from Walout lend, Arkansas, the residence of the late "®l.

After his death, they broke intéhe store-house, and helped them- sel® to its contents—consisting of clo- thig and groceries of various kinds 803 efforts were made by the few white pergns about the premises to restrain hea, but these were of no avail. - "he negroes allege that their late mas- erpromised them if they served him anfully during his life-time, they should e ree at his death, and express a determ- naion to free themselves.

AN Inpiany Tomp~—The following ac- nt is given of a cave in a limestone win of hills not far from San Sebastin Mexico. “In the year 1333, a Mexican, Don lan Flores, perceived there the hidden wrance to a cave. He entered; but eing inside a council of Indian warriors ting together in the deepest silence, he treated and told it to his companions, ho well prepared, entered the cave to- ther, and discovered about 1000 well eserved Tndian corpses squatted togeth- “on the ground, with their hands folded fow their knees. They were dressed fine blankets, made of the fibrgs of le- willa with sandals made of a species of ma, on their feet, and ornapented with lored scarfs, with beads of seed of fruit, lished bones, &e.

Tune GoLp Recion or CALIFORNIA,~Every thing in regard to this new El Do-rado is read just now with extraordinaryavidity. The folowing is an extract froma letter received by the Secretary of the!Navy from a gentleman occupying anofficial position in Monterey : ‘

MoxTirey, Sept. 16, 1848, —The cit-r izens of California are very anxious forthe establishment of a branch mint inthis territory. ‘There is very little coinedmoney in the country, and the conse-quence is, they are oblidged to sell their

ain and wheat at a ruinous sacrifice.—qfhe custom house duties are all requiredo be in coin, and this absorbs the little

at still remuins in circulation. Thepeo‘yl’e are oblidged to carry their grain

gold in their fobs, corners of their pock-et handkerchiefs, and in goose quills, forchange. They want a United States mint,and have had many public meetings onthe subject. |

It is calculated that over two millionsof dollars are taken out of the mines inrain gold, per month—and this sum willge more than quadrupled another season.

This grain gold is now shipped offin largequantities to Mexico, Chili and Peru, |where it will be coined under the insig-

Q.i?yf those republics, and lost to the me-tallic basis ofour own circulating medi-um. This gold can be secured to ourown country only by a mint. Such aninstitution will bring the grain gold at'once to its intrinsic value, and sustain it|there; and save the poor emigrants who‘

get it out of the earth from the hands of‘the speculators. It will do more to cher-ish emigration, than the appropriation of |millions for ordinary purposes, and will|at the same time swell immensely the |aggtogate ofour national coin. l"he head of the emigrant column forthe year has already reached California. iThey will throw themselves en masse in-|

the mines. There will also bea large'‘omi ration from Oregon, and also fromthe%andwich Islands ; and there will be |heavy tide ever the Isthmus as soon as|e steamers are on their destined track. |hen the wealth of these gold mines is!

eally known and believed in the United |States, there will not be wagons and |steamers enough that can be spared to |bring the emigrants here. You are nuw!all incredulous—you regard our state-|ments as the dreams of an excited imag- |iation—but what seems to you mere!fiction, is a stern reality. It is not gold,

' wthe clouds or in the sea, or in the cen-tre ofa rock-ribbed mountain, but in thewil ofCalifornia, sparkling in the sunad glittering in its streams. It lies onthe open plain, in the shadows of thedeep ravines, and glows on the summitsofthe mountains, which have lifted forages their golde¢n coronets to heaven,

As an evidence of the facility withwhith it 1s procured, let one or two facts

suffice. Every sailor that now ships Irom

a port in Califoruia, gets bis %30 permonth, and but very few can be procuredit those wages. Anoffer of 100 a monthpould be rejeeted by nine-tenths of thoselow engaged in the mines. T'hey con-

ider their labor there worth %20 a day,ind it often realizes them even more.—iven the poor ladian, when you talk ofiring him, shakes his bag of gold inour eyes. I'he consequence is, we

lave no hired laborers, no servants; ev-ry one must bluck his own boots. T'his

) practical democracy ; no theory, noalking about equality. We are all on a

evel by that great law of circumstancesrhickh nane can surmount. "I'he rounds

f your ladder, it is true, are of gold—-ut your neighbor’s ladder runs just asMgh.

Dearn or Cor. Wy, Pork—NearoAxcrrement.— A gentleman whoarrivedere yesterday morning from Waloutlend, Arkansas, the residence of the late"®l. Wi, Polk, inforins us of the deceasef that gentleman on the morning of Sut-rday last, and that his negroes—amount-wto some three hundred—are in open

relg'i‘on. After his death, they brokeintéhe store-house, and helped them-sel® to its contents—consisting of clo-thig and groceries of various kinds803 efforts were made by the few whitepergns about the premises to restrainhea, but these were of no avail.- "he negroes allege that their late mas-erpromised them if they served himanfully during his life-time, they shoulde ree at his death, and express a determ-naion to free themselves. This is a

asely settled neighborhood, there notEbg a sufficient number of whites with-

-2 nany miles to put them down ; hence,e learn, informationof the condition ofairs has been conveyed to our fellow-Eizen Wardlow Howard, Esq., and to|. Tay'or, son-in-law of the deceased,ll

L order that the proper steps may be ta-

en to restore quiet and subordinationmong them.— Memphis Appeal, Nov. 23. !

AN Inpiany Tomp~—The following ac-

nt is given of a cave in a limestonewin of hills not far from San SebastinMexico.“In the year 1333, a Mexican, Don

lan Flores, perceived there the hiddenwrance to a cave. He entered; buteing inside a council of Indian warriorsting together in the deepest silence, hetreated and told it to his companions,ho well prepared, entered the cave to-

ther, and discovered about 1000 welleserved Tndian corpses squatted togeth-“on the ground, with their hands foldedfow their knees. They were dressedfine blankets, made of the fibrgs of le-

willa with sandals made of a species ofma, on their feet, and ornapented with

lored scarfs, with beads of seed of fruit,lished bones, &e. T'his is the verysuflicient account of the mysteriousirying place. ‘T'ke Mexicans supposeat it belonged to the Lipans, an olddian tribe which from time immemori

has roved and is roving over the 80lm de Mapinie,”

' Gave ar Bavrivone—There was a severe(gale at Baltimore on Saturday ; b‘y which con-siderable damage was done to shipping and

(buildings. I'he following record is from theBaltimnore Sun.

| A new building on West Saratoga street

‘was partially blown dewn, the walls of which‘will ’mve to be commeoenced anew.I "I'he gable ends ofsome new buildings in Wolfstreet were blown down, eausing some loss to

‘the builders.| At the foot of Commerce street a portion ofthe wharf to which the steamer Columbia

(and sundry bay eraft were moored gave wa(and occastoned a deal of trouble, before u?'eould be secured.

| T'wo scheoners, at the long wharf, Canton,jwere sunk. One of them belonged 1o Mr,Robert Mitehell, of this city, and the other to

'Mr. James Smith.| A schooner discharging grain into the shipChesapeake, at Waters's wharf, had her mastbroken offclose to the deck,and her stanneheonand rail stove in, on the larboard side. Anotherschooner at the same place was somewhat in-|

Jured., ‘| The new ship” Jane Henderson was thrownagainst Waters's wharf, and was considerably |chafed and paint rubbed off. '‘ A pungy, belonging to John Simpson, wasthrown up into Gardner’s ship yord, and had a

“hole stove in her quarter, '| T'he ship Xylon, just artived with a eargoof guano, and which was aground on Friday icevening, floated at the rising ot the tide and.

|was driven across the dock, between Donnell’s |and Waters's wharves, completely jammed in,|She broke her jib-boom and had her rail injured. |

J The new ship Grey Eagle, at Chase's wharf''suffered slight damage from chafing. |

I'he schr. Roe. Capt. Avery, bound for New |York, lying at Corner's wharf, broke from her ‘fastenings and drifted down to Heir's wharf, ||

(where she came in contact with a steamer. |‘She had her boat smashed, her davits broken, |and received other shght damage. She left forNow York on Saturday evening. It is beliey-|ed her lines were cut designedly by some malie-ous person, though it 1s haid to think any one'would be guilty ofsuch an act.

I The bnig Ocean, a Boston packet, waseaughtin the bay, and let go an anchor; asceond anchor was also let go, which held her,

‘the first anchor parting, with, the chain‘cable, was lost.| T'he elegant new schooner Mary Mankm,ofthe N. York line of packets, was driven ashore

‘on Kent Island, and had to receive the aid ofthe towhoat Relief, Capt. Sanner, to get heroff. ‘T'he steamer went down yesterday morn-ing
