From the Few York Courier and Enquirer.
How Mr. Henry A. Crabb came to be
in Sonora.
My attention was called this morning to an arti
cle in vour paper in which Mr. Henry A. Crabb,
(called by you Col. Crabb) is classified as a fillibus
ter, and being an intimate friend of that gentleman
and being well aware of the intentiou of himself
and party, I beg to contradict the statement, and
assert that he is not a (filibuster, nor did he or any
of his party entertain any such idea on their land
ing at Guaymas, in the Gulf of California. The
facts which induced Mr. Crabb and companions
to immigrate from California to Honora, Mexico,
are simply these :
“ For many years past there has been a supposi
tion how well founded I urn not aware) that in the
interior of that State, and m a position of the coun
try occupied by the Apache tribe of Indians, there
were valuable gold and silver mines, but which
requii ed great risk and hazard to work them with
any degree of success, on account of the determina
tion ol the savage Indians to murder and rob all
who attempted to settle in their midst; and these
same Indians have been a source of great terror to
the Sonorans having ranches of cattle and horses
in that and the surrounding States, on account of
the many robberies committed bv them, it is
true ihat William Walker had a (filibustering de
sign on that country; and some three years ago a
party under the command of a Frenchman, and, if
ray memory is correct, the party were also mostly
Frenchmen, landed in that country with the same
intent; and at the time of the sailing of the vessel
brig Caroline) from San Francisco, this same Mr.
Henry A. Crabb bad engaged his passage on board
of her, and I believe he did not learn the intention
of the party until after the vessel had sailed from
the wharf, when he immediately requested to be
set ashore, which tvas complied with by the master
of the vessel, Mr. Crabb losing the amount paid by
him for his passage, as well as a portion of his
baggage.
-ur. Henry A. Crabb was for several years State
Senator from San Joaquin county, and lias also
occupied the position as editor of the Stockton
Argus —he is a lawyer by profession, and was a
candidate before the Legislature of California for
•State Senator, and had there been sufficient Know
Nothing votes in that body he would most un
doubtedly have been the Senator of that State, at
Washington, this day. It will no doubt be a mat
ter of surprise to his friends in California to see
him held up by the New York press as a pirate,
when the object of that gentleman’s mission to
Sonora was a far different one; and one fact must
be remembered, and that is, the Mexican govern
ment has been holding out inducements to all per
sons who would settle in that State ; and is it not
natural to suppose that Americans would be the
first to be tempted by an advantageous offer made
bv a foreign Government, and I am of the belief
that in the event of the Mexican authorities injur
ing a hair of the head of Mr. Crabb. or any of the
party, they will bring down a dreadful retaliation
upon themselves at the hands of the California
friends, of Mr. Crabb’s party; and, in fact, the
whole people of the State of California would rise
en mu-- ’ to avenge such an act of treachery. My
only reason for thus noticing your article of this
morning, in regard to fillibusters, is to place Mr.
Crabb and his party before the eyes of the Ameri
can people in their proper position, so that in the
event of their being put to death by the Mexican
authorities, they can be able to judge how far the
act was justiliaole. Respectfully yours,
Fr ancis f). Clark,

Great Railroad Celebration.
The approaching celebration of the opening of
the Ohio and Mississippi railroad, and the comple
tion of the connecting links in the chain of commu
nication, the Northwestern Virginia and Cincin
nati and .Marietta railroad, on the air-line route be
tween the Atlantic cities and St. Louis, will form
quite an era in the history of internal improve
ments in this country. The works to be opened
embrace seven hundred miles of railroad, by
which various sections of our Union will be fas
tened and bound together by bands of iron and
reciprocal interests not less enduring, to say the
least of them.
The plan of the celebration, it is believed, had
its origin with the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad
Company, by which the most efficient measures
have been taken to secure the hearty co-operation
of other kindred corporations, embracing more
than thirty, or-er the roads of which those who go
upon the excursion will pass at pleasure from the
27th of May current until the 18th of June next.
The guests -who are, it is said, to consist of the
President of the United States, the heads of de
partments, diplomats from foreign governments,
and other persons of distinction throughout the
country, amounting to two thousand or more—will
assemble at Cincinnati on the 3d of June, when
the ceremony of opening will take place, and be
concluded by a ball at the Burnett House.
Early on the morning of the 4th, the excursion
trains will leave the “Queen City of the West" en
route for St. Louis, on the Ohio and Mississippi
road, the distance to run by daylight, stopping for
the night at Chillicothe. On the tollowiug day,
the sth of June, the celebration at St. Louis, for
which the most extensive preparations are in pro
gress on the part of the citizens of that city, tvill
take place. After this celebration is over it is pre
sumed the excursionists wifi be agreeabiy occupied
in visiting and inspecting the roads that connect
St. Louis with the regions further West, and in
passing over the works of the various companies
by winch the tickets of invitation will be endorsed.
Those of the excursionists who wiligo from this
city and Baltimore are expected to leave those
places on the morning of Monday, the Ist of Juno,
and passing over the “Baltimore and Ohio’’ and
“Northwestern Virginia’’ railroads, will reach Par
kersburg on the night of that day. On Tuesday
morning they wifi be conveyed to Mariieta, and
thence over the Cincinnati and Marietta railroad
to Cincinnati, where they are expected, after a
night’s rest, to participate in the festivities of the
following day, June 3d.
Further remarks upon this interesting and im
portant subject are deemed unnecessary, as the oc
casion is one that must recommend itself to the
attention of every lover of his country. By the
completion of the great work noiv to be celebrated
iavo of the great centres of western trade and popu
lation will be brought within a day’s journey of
each other, thus rendering the connexion between
the East and West as direct as possible, and, prac
tically, to a great extent, annihilating space, and
cat»ing the great valley of the Mississippi and the
Atlantic slope of the Aileghanicsto become botmu
together geographically as they already are in point
of iuterest.— Rational Intelligencer, Bay 22.
Keep Yoir Temper.—“l never can keep any
thing," cried Emma, almost crying out with vexa
tion. “ Somebody always takes my things and
loses them.” She had mislaid some of her sewing
implements.
“ There is one thing,” remarked mamma, “ that
T should think you might keep up, if you should
trv.”
I should like to keep even one thing.” answer
ed Emma.
“ Well, then, my dear,” resumed mamma, “keep
your temper ; if you will only do that, perhaps you
Will find it easy to keep other things. I dare say,
now, if you had employed your time in searching
for the missing articles, you might have found
them before this time; but you have not even look
ed for them. You have only got into a passion—
a bad wav of spending time, and you have accused
somebodv, and very unjustly, too, of taking away
your things and losing them. Keep your temper,
inv dear; when you have mislaid any article, keep
vour temper and look for it. You had better keep
vour temper, it you lose all the little property you
possess ; getting into a passion never brings any
thing to light, except a distorted face; and by los
ing your temper, you become guilty of two sins
vou get into a passion and accuse somebody of be
ing Hie cause. So, my dear, I repeat, keep your
temper."
Emma subdued her ill humor, searched for the
articles she had lost, and found them in her work
i bag.
“ Why, mamma, here they are ; I might have
, been sewing all this time, if I had kept my tem
| per.”

Letter from Colonel Benton.—The Jefferson
■ (Mo.) Inquirer publishes a letter from Col. Benton,
>f ; dated on the 7th instant, in which he gives his
s > reasons for being opposed to “slavery agitation.’
| It concludes as follows;
h “I was against agitation as an evil in itself, and
x, | therefore against it without reference to its cause,
e ' or origin, or from whom it might come. I look
e i upon a slai'erv agitation as one of the greatest ea
e j lamities which could befal the country, and be
e j sides its other evils,) as having a dangerous effect
v ' upon the slaves themselves; for it is incident to
If j these agitations for one of the parties to charge
I the other with Abolitionism and a design to abolish
e j slavery, and to represent the free States the same
3 j way; all of which is heard by the slaves, or comes
, j to their knowledge; and they being ignorant and
f i credulous, and not knowing that all this abolition
3 talk is mere political lying, for the election, verv
3 naturally believe what they hear, and just, as na
-3 turallv conclude that they ought to be doing some
; thing for themselves ivhen they have so many
. powerfulfriendsjat work for them. They believe it,
t and become restless and discontented, and go to
* plotting, either to escape or revolt. Those who
i make)such charges, do not do it to excite the slaves,
but they do it so that the slaves hear and know it,
t just and the effect is the same as if their design was
l to excite insurrection. We have seen much mischief
done in this wav already, and if it is continued
- the most deplorable consequences must ensue,
i For its effect upon the slaves themselves, then, as
■ well as for its political and social evils, lam against
agitation, and c ondemn it whenever it appears,
without regard to its cause or origin.”
1 Cobldnt Pass Coppers on Him.—Acorrespo»d
ent writing to a Boston paper from New Orleans,
gives the following:
Vou can buy nothing in New Orleans and most
southern and western cities for less than a “ pica
yune,” or six-and-a-quarter cents. Coppers are
hardly known. I was amused at a little incident
which I saiv on board of one of the western boats.
A man from the North tried to pass ten coppers
upon a “Slicker,” a native of Illinois, for one
dime.
“What be they?” inquired the Sucker, turning
over the copper.i two or three times in unfeigned
ignorance.
“I calculate they are cents,” replied the northern
er.
“Cents, are they ?”
“Can't you read V”
“I reckon not,” saitl the other, “and what’s
more, old boss, I allow that 1 don’t want to,
either. What’s cents, mister?”
“1 vow to the judges,” said the northerner,
“you are worse than the heathen ! Cents is mo
ney, sartin ! Ten of them are worth one dime.
Can’t you see it says E Pluribus Unum—that’s the
Latin for llail Columbia, and here it says one
cent.”
“Look here, stranger,” responded the Sucker,
putting the thumb of his hand to his nose, and in
clining his lingers forward, “you may run a saw
on a Hoosier or Wolverine, but I’m dod rotted if
you cau (Yankee me with the darned contusive
stuff.”
And so he marched off to the Social Hall, to in
dulge in a drink of corn whisky, in compliment
to his own sagacity.

DEGRATK’S ELECTRIC OIL.
rriHE man with the Sugar-Loaf Hat has been here for the
JL past two or three days, astonishing the natives with the
wonderful effects produced by De Grath’s Electric Oil. Prof.
De Grath has introduced a novel mode of advertising. He
makes his advent in town by ringing a tremendous gong, which
attracts the attention of the crowd, to whom he makes known
the wonderful virtues of his Electric Oil, and begs them to
send all who are suffering with rheumatism, pains of ali kinds,
and deafness, to the town Hall, where he has lectured morn
ings and evenings for several days, and produced some aston
ishing cures. A Mr. Sugg and Seth Taylor, who have been
long afflicted with chronic rheumatism, and had to be assisted
on the stage, were enabled to run a race across the Hall, and up
and down stairs, to the amusement of the audience. A num
ber of cases of deafness, of many years standing, were relieved
m five or ten minutes, so that they could hear the ticking of a
watch, and evinced their gratitude by embracing the Professor,
and showering upon him their endless blessings. Some in
stances were truly affecting.
Prof. De Grath has been called to see a number of obstinate
cases m our most respectable families, and has succeeded in
affording great relief; and a number have given him certificates
which will be published soon. He makes no charge, but di
rects ali who want the De Grath’s Electric Oil, to Pescud and
Gatling, who have purchased a large quantity on such terms as
will enable them to supply the country merchants at his price.
This valuable preparation is selling rapidly.
A number of valuable presents have been made to the Pro
fessor by those who have been relieved.

I, David Elkin, do hereby certify that I have been badly afflict
ed, for about two months, with inflammatory rheumatism, one
of my legs being very much swollen, stiff and sore, so that I
found it exceedingly difficult to walk—that the stiff joint has
been twice rubbed with Prof. De Grath’s celebrated Electric
Oil within thirty hours, and I now have the perfect use of the
afflicted limb. I was also troubled with partial deafness in my
left ear, and by a single application of the Electric Oil, my
hearing has been greatly improved. DAVID ELKIN.

Cavanaugh's Pile Salve
VV 111 never fail in giving immediate relief, and positively curing
the worst and most obstinate cases of Hemorrhoids or Piles.
It is the only invaluable remedy known here or elsewhere lor
the Piles, and is the result of years of patient study and inves
tigation.
Sufferers from Piles now have a remedy at hand which will
stand the test of trial, without a fear of failure on its part, to do
all the proprietor claims for it.
Full directions accompany each box ; and all that is requisite
is strictly to observe them, and a cure is certain to follow.*
The proprietor refers to the following testimonials from gen
tlemen of character and standing, who have voluntarily given
their certificates in its favor, in regard to its efficacy in their
own cases. Read them.
The following is from one of the most reliable citizens of
Chicago, the late Treasurer of Cook county, 111.:
Chicago, July 25 1355.
Dr. Cavanaugh—Dear Sir: I wish hereby to make known to
the afflicted that I have been troubled with the Piles for twen
ty years or upwards, and at times most severely. And during
a recent and exceedingly painful attack, a friend procured a
box of your Salve, and asked me to give it a trial. 1 did so.
Not, however, with the expectation of benefltting my disease,
/hr truly I had tried so many applications I had lost confidence
111 all. But in making use of vour Salve, I soon found that
it was doing me good ; and really it is incredible to myself, that
with only about two week’s use of your Salve, I am, so far as I
can judge, a well man.
I most cheerfully make this statement, believing it due both
to yourself and such as may be afflicted with this most trying
and painful disease. I do not hesitate to say that I consider
vour preparation an invaluable remedy for the Piles. Most
sincerely yours, 11. N. HEARD.
i i:e Hon. Richard Yates, late member of Congress from the
Springfield, 111., district, says •
_ , , Jacksonville, 111., Nov. 15, 1855.
Dr. 1 hos. H. Cavanaugh—Dear Sir: The preparation, Cava
naugh's Pile Salve, which you furnished, I found of great ser
vice, producing an easy and speedy cure. Ido not hesitate to
recommem. it as an invaluable remedy for the Piles.
Respect lolly, ' RICHARD YATES.
The following, from Rev. B. F. Bristow, is a sufficient recom
mendation in itself:
Jacksonville, 111., December 15, 1854.
Dr. Cavanaugh—l conceive it to be a duty 1 owe to the af
flicted to make Known the invaluable virtues and remedial effi
ciency of your Pile Salve. I was, for several weeks, sorely af
flicted with that painful and loathsome disease, the Piles.
After having exhausted my patience in trying various prescrip
tions of physicians and others without receiving any benefit, by
the strong recommendation of your Salve, by my friend, the
Hon. Richard Yates, I was induced to try it. lam happy in
saying an application of your Salve, for three days, perfected
an entire cure. Respectfully yours,
B. F. BRISTOW.
