» Marvelous Wealth of Sonora.
he Santa Fe Gazette, of a late date, j
: We had an interesting conversa- 1
i with Major Stein, from Fort Buoh- j
n, during his few days’ stay in this
H» seems well posted up in the
ire of the State of Sonora, The |
jments he gives of the amount of
ious metals mined there are almost |
tlous. He expresses the opinion
t Sonora is more prolific of gold and
or than California, and. if a Terri
of the United States, would yield
.000,000 annually. He says he has ;
i single lumps of gold taken from j
mines there worth from $3,000 to !
00. He likewise informed us that
iad seen a “cord” of silver in bars;,
all mined without machinery. ,
Terrible Accidents ,
a Tuesday last, says the Montgome- j i
'onfedtratmn of the 2d inst., a white ! 1
, named Griffin, while working in
factory at Prattville, Ala., was j
ght up by a belt attached to some J |
iof the machinery, was drawn un- j'
the machine between a belt and *
ley, was thrown to the flooring
■ve, and partially drawn through a i
til hole through which the band '
sed. There the head was severed
in the body, and the lifeless trunk
1 1 to the floor below, while the head
.nained above. Nearly all his bones
re broken, and his body otherwise
rribly mutilated. We understand his j
other came to the scene shortly after ]
: accident, and that the shock was so j
•at as to deprive her of reason, in
lich state she remained at last ac
ints.
Important Postal Decision. —The
stmaster General has decided that
'ters received from U. S. vessels can
't be considered ‘ship letters’ under
e provisions of the act of March 3,
26, which apply only to letters or
ckets carried “in any private ship or
ssel.” Such letters, therefore, are
■ argeable only with drop-letter post
e, if intended for the delivery at the
lice in which they are deposited, and
ith the ordinary rates, if forwarded to
her offices ; and in neither case is any
inpensation to be allowed to the per- j
n from whom they are received

The Charleston Courier says: Many
aders will be pleased with the an

luctantly, to leave us, and seek resto
ition and repose, is recovering his

Lieut. Allen.—Lieutenant J. K. Al
*n, whose death is announced by the
iregon papers, in a late fight with the
Indians, was a young and highly meri
orious officer. He belongod to the
'finth Infantry, and graduated at West
Point, from Illinois, in 1863. He was
a native of Tennessee.

Nashville and Mtmphli
| To judge by the newspapers in both
i cities, the question seems to be which is j
the most moral city ? If we were call- ;
ed on to express our opinion, we should
say it was six of one and half dozen )
of tothcr—and that there is great room 1
: for improvement in both cities, so far I
as law, order and morality are concern-I
ed. The Memphis Bulletin, speaking of !
■Nashville “Amusements,” says—“On;
‘the 29th ult., in Nashville, a man]
, named Lafayette Goodwin was fatally
j stabbed at the Claiborne Machine Works,
! and in the afternoon of the same day, I
] ‘within the brief space of an hour and !
a half, three fights of a violent charac- i
| ter occurred at as many different points ■
in tbe city.' On that day there was
no one killed in Memphis, and not a
single fight of a violent character.’ 1
! -What a striking contrast in the morals j
of the two cities do the above facts ex- j
hi bit.” ’

The Epidemic.—The fever continues
to decline, the Board of Health report
ing only sixty-four deaths from yellow
fever for the past week, which is pre
cisely one-half the number reported two
weeks since. We learn, from compe
tent medical authority, that the type of !
fever now prevailing is much more man
ageable than that preceding the decline.
It has, to a great degree, withdrawn
from the lower wards, and is now chief
ly prevalent in the Neck wards. Should
settled weather be vouchsafed us, we
shall soon be enabled to chronicle its ,
entire disappearance.— Charleston Mercu
ry, ith inst.
Large Cargo.—The steamship Key
stone State, from this port for Philadel- j
phia, on Saturday last, took the largest j
coastwise steamship cargo ever carried !
from Charleston. It consisted of 1464 :
bales of cotton, 243 sacks of wheat, 200
| tierces of rice, 61 empty beer barrels, 67 j
; bales of cotton waste, 54 bales of yarn,
36 bags of feathers, 6 bales of moss, 10 I
cases of merchandize, and 40 boxes and 1
baskets of different articles. With her !
accustomed regularity, she sailed 1
promptly at the advertised hour. This I
fine steamer has established herself as a j
prime favorite among our travellers and
shippers.— Charleston Mercury, ith inst.
The weather continues very warm
during the day, our city is dusty and
disagreeable, and we have but little
present prospect of rain. A fine shower,
; followed by a cool atmosphere, would
j add vastly to our comfort and, in all !
! probability, to the health of the city.—

At a fire in Cincinnati, a few days j

Agrlt nltui-al New White Wheats.
A correspondent of the Ohio Culliva- ;
, tor, reports that the trial of several va
. rieties of wheat sown last year about!
! the middle of September, “on a fine
piece of ground on one side of his wheat
field," joining which tbe Red Mediter
; ranean gave a product of 36 bushels per
acre—one kind, “Gale's Early Flint,”
a very early wheat of small growth,
> I yielding nearly 35 bushels per acre.—
The writer, (Wm. N. Smith, of Huron
county,) thinks this wheat will prove
valuable when the midge is bad, on ac
; count of its earliness. The “White
: Mediterranean, ” a vqpy productive
■ white wheat, of excellent quality, not
. so early as the Red Mediterranean, but
stands up bettor, yielding over 35 bush
els per acre. This was on poorer
ground than any other ki«d, but gave
an equal product to others on the best
soils.— Country Gentleman. September, 1808.
The Grade Crop.— Within a radius
-of twenty-five miles from Ciucinnati.it
is computed there are twenty-five hun
dred acres of land devoted to the cul
ture of the grape. In favorable seasons
the average crop of wine per acre may
i be set down at two hundred gallons. -
This would be equal to half a million
■ of gallons as the whole crop for the
section described. And as the wine is
worth, fresh from the press, at least one
dollar per gallon, the value of the
crop, when good, would amount to
$500,000. Tile failure, therefore, of
the grape crop, affects very seriously
the pecuniary condition of our imme
diate rural neighborhood.
The crop (his season may be designa
ted as almost an entire failure. Some
few vineyards will have something of
a crop, but, in the aggregate, ail the
wine produced will not pay the expen
ses of tending the crop.— Ohio Valley
. Farmer, September, 1858.

word for it, you will recoivo benefit; for there
seems to be some wonderful healing virtues in
this medicine to acquire such an extended repu

that it was fully tried by a largely practicing

they will not remain colored. Do you desire to
do it naturally ? Make a solution of guano water, c
apply it to the roots, and the plant will take it
up into the system, and then you will see a rich
green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair c
Tonic works on the same principle. The roots
of the hair drink up that application, and high
health and beauty result.

- Solved!—DU. MOUSE'S INVIGORATING COK
• DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whoso stomach
i has lost the power of duly converting food into a
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
tluid re acquires its solvent power, aud the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burtheu to
r the sufl'erer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
1 wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
j The nervous sufl'erer, while tormented by the
l acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
1 or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
, rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
• paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
' nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
s or from the ei.naturalcondition
-of machinery w*?. ! ,ch oui

• 'lion aud thought—derives imme ' ; benefit
from the use of this Cordial, which a; aceti^s,
> invigorates and regulates the shattered ncrvo'flS.
s organization.
. Females who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hards of
» medical men.
[ Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
■ mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite
5 While«it renews the strength of the digestive
' powers it creates a desire for the solid material
. which is to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharroacopia.
Iflongliie and the vigor necessary to its en*
i joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
, precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
. sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willall find immediateand permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible malady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
lof medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

Jf°A Great 31edici«e for
Females.*—'Hundreds of stimulants have been
invented and sold, purporting to be specific iu
the various diseases and derangements to which
the delicate form of woman render her subject.
The result of all these stimulants has been to i
impart momentary activity to the nervous system ,
aud false vigor to the muscles; but this relie
has been succeeded by a depression and pros
tration greater than before ; and the repeated
attempts of invalids to build themselves up by
these false remedies , have finally ended in de
stroying what little vital organization was left.
But in using BCERHAVE’S HOLLAND BITTERS,
you will flud no such disastrous results. It is a j
purely vegetable compound, prepared on strictly
cientific principles, after the manner of the cel
ebrated Holland Professor, Boekhavk. Under
its iufluence, every nerve and muscle receives
new strength and vigor, appetite and sleep re
turn , and finally, perfect health. See advertise

—Ho.vksdalk Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
Seth W. Fowl®—Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit of the af
flicted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ot
the grave. During my sickness I was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received
no help. I also tried the various remedies re
commended for such complaints, but they af
forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored
to better health than I have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
as strictly true. Betsey Perrin.
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, of Honesdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.'
