It ia understood here that Mr. Clay will accompany Geueral Taylor on bis route to the Seat of Government, taking this city on their pro gress thither." California. The Boston Traveller of t late date contains the following oz tract, confirming in a great degree the ritraordinary account* hitherto publiaied through out the country in regard to the wealth of the Cali fornia Mines:— “Letters have been received by one of our most respectable bouses, stating that their agent in Cali fornia had shipped $260,000 in gold to England, and that there was upwards of too milt ions of dol- Im ready to be shipped to this city (New York) as soon as vessels could bo found to bring it. This amouut is independent of the stock held and con signed to other places." Another letter (from the same son roe) contain* the following extract of a letter dated San Franco* rn, Ort. 05th, the writer of which ia agent of a California house in New York: “I can't get men aven at $J5 per d*T to put up the kuildingstbat 1 want, nnd at this rate they will :mt work over six nr seven hours per day. This is not so surprising when I assure yon that several persons of my acquaintance who have returned, aveiagcd ms thousand dollari per day iu the 'gold diggina.’ Gold is now ao much more abnpdaul than money tbatitisouly worth $8 per ounce, pay able in coin." Merchant* with capital will make immense for* tunes in this way, ns the gold dust bought at $8 the ounce, return* to them from Mnzatlan in thirty days iu the shape of coin, and worth just doable it* ori ginal cost. A letter received in this city from the gold region says: "oread ia getting to be scarcer than gold."

As to my cabinet, I intend that all interests and all sections of the country shall be represented', but not as some of tbe newspapers will have it, all parties. I am a whig, as | have always been free to acknow ledge; bnt I do not believe that those who voted for me, wish me to be a mere partitnn Preaident, and I shall therefore try to be a President of the American people. As to tbe new territory, it is now free, and alavery cannot exist there without a law of Congress authorizing it, and that I do not relieve they will ever pass. I was opposed to the acquisition of this territory, as I alto w-ss to tho a uisition of Texas. I was opposed to the war, although by occupation a warrior, I am a Peace man.

Wedesm itduetoqur customers, and tbe public generally, that Mr. Herzfrsl called on us, (with Mr. John Forsyth,) and .anted one of Chicktrmg's seven Octave Pianos ; we had told the last one of this kind two days before the arrival of Mr. Herz. to a gentle man in Colombo*. Mr. Herz wished us to see the gentleman and get the instrument for him. which wo refused to do, for reasons that we explained to him.— Knowing that Mr. Hera's Concert music is arranged for 7 Octave Pianos, we said to him that “perhaps Mr. Reps could accommodate him with 7 Octave Pi ano,” which he did. £«o it happened that Mr. Herz accidentally got the use of a Bacon A Raven’s Piano instead of Chinkerings which he preferred. Mr John Forsyth, who was with Mr. Herz, can testify to the above statement. Mr. Herz, has always preferred Chichering's and Nunn’s and Claris Pianos. When he gave his Con certs in Boston be nsed a Chickering’i Grand Piano, and left his own Piano at the Hotel. And he ought to knots. 13T There is now in this city one of Nnnn’s A Clark’s splendid Grand Piano Fortes, which was pur chased laiit summer for 81,000, and was [selected by an eminent Prefessor of Music,- at tbe same time Nunn A Clark received an orderfor one at 81,600!— In a Boston paper we read an account of a Piano made by Chickering lor the Hon.

Hf*any FAMILIES are already in the habit of lYA keeping a Vermifuge on hand, aud when any of the usual disturbances occur amongst children, of giv ing it to them. The result is, that the effect is not only astonishing, but often incredible, in causing the expulsion of worms, whilst at other times few or none arc discharged. No Vermifuge perhaps ever before introdoced, has done so much good or been so highly spoken of by thosp who have used it, as that prepar ed by Dr. Little. Another peculiarity of toed- icine is, that it never fails, to quickly improve feebly or drooping children, whether they have worms or not. To give calomel, pink root, Ac., is to be behind the age of improvement, when a remedy like Little's Ver mifuge is to he had, which is not surpassed, jf equall ed. by any thing; besides, requiring nothing after wards. For Plantation use. The Prnprietorlias it put up in Dollar Bottle*, which are one-fonrtb cheaper than in vials, and arc about double the size ot Fahnestock’s and at the same price. Whose is best? Read the proof at home.

Dr. Little.—Sir.: I have used Fahnestock's and CornstocV* Vermifuge, as well as; your preperation. in my family. 1 have found yours much superior to either of them, in the several cases I have given it In fact, it fully answers the purpose without anything, else, besides is nit unpleasant for children to take.
