The climate, the soil, the water, the face of the country, and the stupendous scale on which business of every description is conducted, are entirely different from any thing he has ever known. The ve ry people who are, and who have been, for years in this country, oqd engaged in its operations, are still In ignorance as to its resources and future destiny ; they seize upon lime and occasions, as they from day to day present them selves, and pretend to"very little knowl edge of the future. How then can I furnish you any opinion on which either you or lean rely? 1 have no confi dence in my own judgment, except as it may relate to the precise present tim I do know what I see, but there is no teL ling how soon another and entirely dif ferent state of things will present itself. To give you as nearly as lean a com mon sense view of things, foe this is what you desire, ! will begin by stating. wonderfully and happily adapted ; and ; 1° say, that my jud^ from the small proportion of arable | where men are comfortable and doing i lands, and the overwhelming multitudes j well, they had better ^ remain where ! of miners and traders, induced and kept here by the mineral riches of the land, provisions will richly remunerate the producer. Besides, the whole country, both mountains and plains, yields annu ally, without the labor of man, a crop of oats and barley unsurpassed in the world : on these, “the cattle on a thou sand hills” are kept perfectly fat, year in and year out. No conception can be formed by one who has not seen for himself, of the herds of cattle, horses, mules, and asses of the land. When I tell you that these are in much larger numbers, and more common through en fl he country than hogs in Georgia, you will scarcely be prepared to appre ciate the statement, and 3’et it is liter ally true. Grapes, pears, and figs grow to great perfection. Apples and peaches do not seem lo do so well. The water generally, is not good— far from it. There is, however, good water along the mountain spurs, and iu many portions of the up-country; but the watered the coast, end even this far out, is not good. The climate is of the most singular, and generally unpleas ant character. Every twenty of thirty miles, in any direction, gives a different climate. At Sau Francisco, the whole summer through, the winds amount al most to a storm, and are so cold as to require heavy winter clothing, while clouds of fog hang almost perpetually over the entire coast country. At Ben- ecia, twenty-five miles north, the tem perature is very much milder, and twen ty or thirty miles higher still, you have intolerable heal, mosquitoes and sickness. Here (San Jose) we have a temperate climate, never very hot or cold, and on the whole, uniform ; yet, the the north-west winds are occasion ally they are. In cases where means very limited, and they have hard work to provide a competency, I think an ad venture to California justifiable, and should with all I know, were I iu such a case, come ; but should make up my mind first, to suffer and deny myself most of the comforts of life for a few years. Young men, unless well settled in their habits, risk too much in coming. Allow me to say, that oar missionary prospects are good. .yOn this subject we will be heard frem through the Southern Christian Advocate, from ii> to time. • Tifcase say to those may semi letters or papers, direct those for me San Francisco, and those for Rev. Alex ander M. Wynn to Stockton, as w< shall hereafter occupy- . respectively those points. e> Your Brother, JESSE BORING. almost incredible.

He shot, single handed, no less than one hundred elephants ! The number of lions, lionesses and leopards that fell victims to his doable grooved and double-barrelled rifles, is marvel lous. Whether-hidden in ah artificial pit, within twenty yards of the water ing places of lions, whether it? rapid mo tion on foot or on horseback, his aim is equally fatal.

Since that time l have ploughed deep, and the ult has been invariably the same, or at least doubling the crop. Deep piow- y on a soil like tniuc will prevent the ;>p from suffering from wet or dry eat her.” To deep plowing, Mr. Cone ascribes the increase of the yield of his fields, 15 bushels, per acre, to the pro duct above, which it his. estimate of the large load” of unmeasured grain be correct, and the yield was 212 bushels the 4 acres 100 rods, at the rate of 45 bushels 50 lbs. per acre—an increase that goes far to prove the efficacy of deep plowing, and deep pasturage for plants,—it virtually made each acre of his lot more than equal to three before he abandoned the skinning plan, and took the resolution of going deep into bowels of the earth, in search of the salts buried in the poisonous hard pan. We never had nay faith lhal the subsoil con tained mailers deleterious lo healthful vegetation that would not be neutral ized by exposure to the action of lhe atmosphere and the application of lime ur ashes, and each year’s experience but serves to convince us that^the hard pan is only a bug-bear of the imagina tion. If the poison so much dreaded in the subsoil, really does exist 1 here, why is it that its destructive action is not more apparent with deep than.shal low plowing ? Tito roots of wheat, corn, and other plants penetrate far deeper than the line of ordinary plow ing—why is it then, that the injury should not be ns manifest in oue case as in the other ? How Much Potm will a Bushel of Corn Make ?—By some experiments tried, it is believed’ that a bushel of corn, fed to a thrifty hog, will make twelve pounds of pork. So that corn at twen ty-four cents is equal to pork at two cents, and corn at seventy-two -cents a bushel is equal to six cents a pound.— j The manure will more than pay for the labor of feeding and killing the hogs. Manure.—The best manure for trees is decayed leaves. To a cord of this, add four bushels of oyster-shell limo and one of salt, and as much charcoal as you like, and you will find it a val uable compost for fruit trees or .shrub bery.
