To Dr. Sherman's Agent, 15! dartres street:
Dear Sir—Having derived great fcenefit from the
«se of Dr. Sherman's Balaam, yoo will permit me
<o address a few lines la foa. I have been troubled
(or a long tin» with a bad eaugb, together with
faistng blood, to such • degree that I could scarcely
talk without coaghing, A friend of mine advised
«e Ml try Dr. Sherman's Balsam, and in less than
two Weeks after its use, I fmd myself perfectly well,
and able to attend to my business. I have recom
mended it to several of «y friends, and in all cases
witkauceeai.
Yours, déar sir, wÄb respect:

STILL THEY COME!
Having accidentally become acquainted with the
viitues of Dr. Sherman's All-Healing Balsam, I
have no hesitation in declaring that its use in my
family warrants the assurance thRt it possesses all
the gifted qualities atttibuted to it. In one case,
where the medicine was taken ou my recommenda
tion. the effect waa almost magical, as the Cough
and Expectoration of mucus matter bore a strong
analogy to a decided consumptive tendency. I be
lieve a more general knowledge of this medicine is
only required to place it among the best curatives
extant, for Consumption, Dyspepsia and other dis
eases arising from a disorganized state of the stom
ach and affections of the lungs.

I hereby certify, that ihr 18 months I had been

California.
The annexed letter from an intelligent
and reliable source, is published in the
New York Courier and Enquirer. The
journal remarks that it exemplfies the
hardships and privations to which the
officers of the army are exposed, and
adds that all the circumstances of this
sudden discovery of hidden treasure seem
to authorize abundantly some specific ap
propriation by Congress over and above
their pay, for the faithful officers and
soldiers of the army who, resisting the
fascinarions of sure gain, have stood by
their colors at great personal inconve
nince and pecuniary loss.
M onterey , California, Aug. 19,1848.
The news of the ratification of the treaty
of peace reached here ou the 6th of Au
gust, and orders were immedintely issued
for the discharge of the New York re
giment of volunteers, leaving only about
150 regulars to guard the immense a
mount of ordnance and public stores
which have been deposited in the coun
try, and also to keep quiet the disaffected
part of the Mexican population. *
The Americans in this country are ra
ther a lawless^et of men, disposed to in
fringe upon the rights and property of the
Californiens, but so long as they can be
restrained within the limits of the law I
have no fear of difficulty. They, ltow
ever, are of such a restless character, that
there is no telling what they may do.
As I have already written to you, Up
per California is a tolerably good grazing
country, but the want of rain renders it
unsuitable for grain; there are, however,
some small portions of the northern part
of the country where pretty good crops of
wheat and corn may be raised; and in the
south the grape is cultivated with success
by irrigation. The California wine is ex
cellent, resembling the light German
wines. A new gold mine was discovered
a few months ago near the Sacramento
river, and on the tributary streams, which
bids fair to be one of the richest in the
world; the earth is dug up with picks and
shovels, and the gold separated by wash
ing. The process is perfectly simple,
requiring no outlay of capital in machin
ery. A common laborer can make from
$20 to $50 per day. *
ftJ^Old gentlemen at the North must
have fine fun during the season when they
are made targets for all the juvenile snow
bailers. Major Noah, while viewing with
amusement the victimizing of home other
citizens, became the recipient of one of
congelated masses which some urchiu
very adroitly deposited in his mouth.
The Major thus good-naturedly relates
the story:
Artillery Practice. —The accuracy with
which our city urchins deliver their snow
pellets just between the brim of the hat
and the coat-collar, at any distance with
in pistol-range, is much more worthy of
admiration when displayed at the expense
of another than one's self. We were
laughing very heartily, yesterday, at a
poor fellow who had just received a brace
of these missiles in the nape of his neck,
when our cachinatory orifice was sudden
ly plugged with a snow-ball which exact
ly fitted it, (a big one, of course) and a
loud guffaw arose from the bystanders, in
which, for au obvious reason, we found
it impossible to join. However, as there
is no corporation canon against these
shots, we suppose the youngsters will fire
away while the ammunition lasts.
Moderate Views and Improbable
Conclusion .—The N. Y. Courier, in a
long article, points out the errors of the
North and the South on the subject of
slavery, and while it denou nces Giddings
on one side,strongly reprobates the South
ern sectional movement on the other.
The editor anticipates a certain removal
of the Capitol west of the Ohio, and urges
an immediate preparation for it.

Latest from Europe,
The steamship Washington arrived at
New York yesterday, bringing four days'
later intelligence from Europe.
For the following telegraphic dispatch
we are under obligations to Col. Doatie,
of O'Reilly's Western Line. From Louis
ville to Nashville it was transmitted over
the Morse Line. There are some obscure
passages in the dispatch, but the operator
at Nashville states that he transmits it pre
cisely as received. We are gratified in
receiving this dispatch, as it is a proof
tli8t we will soon no longer have to de
pend wholly upon the tergiversations of the
Eastern Line.
N ashville , January 10, p. m .
F rance .—The news from France is
satisfactory, the election excitement in
that country having almost entirely sub
sided, leaving every thing in a tranquil
condition. According to returns the ma
jority of Louis Napoleon for President is
4'000,000 (?) votes. Since the election,
business has improved, as there seems to
be a general desire among capitalists
and commercial men to repose confidence
in the new administration. Louis Na
poleon was to be proclaimed President on
the 21st of Decetnber. Itissnpposed that
M. Boxiet (Barrot?) will be Minister of
Commerce, and either Lamartine, Pagés,
or Arago, Vice-President.
England .—Parliament ha? been pro
rogued to February 1st.
Hungary .—The Hungarians have de
termined to oppose the invading Russian
army by all means in their power. They
are resolved to cut off the enemy's com*
munications, and if necessary burn even
their own towns and villages.
I taly .—A Russian fleet has appeared
off the port of Trieste with the intention
of assisting Austria iu repressing the Ve
netain insurrection.
R ome .—A Provisional Government is
to be established at Rome. It is thought
that the other European powers will inter

Latest from Texas.
By the arrival of the steamship Palmet
to, we iiave received Texas papers to the
9th inst.
At Victorin, the 8th Infantry has suffer
ed somewhat from Cholera.
A desperate affray occurred in Wash
ington county, a few days since, which
the Civilian describes as follows.
We are informed that Wayne Barton
was killed, and Edward Burleson, Jr.,
badly wounded in a rencounter in Wash
ington county, a short time since. Burle
son and a cousin of his bearing the same
name were engaged on one side, and
Barton on the other. As the story goes,
several shots were fired, two of which took
effect on E. Burleson, and one or more
on Barton, when the Burlesons rushed
in, beat down Barton with their guns, and
left him for dead, though he afterwards
regained his horse, rode home, and lived
two days. He had received a wound in
the back of his head, apparently from be
ing struck with the cock of a gun,through
which the brain worked out, causing his
death. Burleson was hit in the right arm
and side with buckshot, and a ball passed
through his left shoulder. His recovery
is considered doubtful.
This is a sad affair. The parties killed
and wounded were brothers-in-law. In
an election row at Bastrop, year before
last, a brother of Burleson was shot by
Barton, and the surviving brother had
sworn to retaliate, from which nothing
could dissuade him. The late fatel meet
ing is the first he had been able to obtain
with the object of his resentment. Bar
ton, who was as brave a man as any, had
endeavored to keep out of the way,
through kindness to his wife, who was a
sister to the Burlesons, and by the per
suasion of her fathea, Gen. Burleson,
who although he deplored the death of
his son, entertained no resentment to
wards Barton. Whether the late meet
ing was accidental or sought by young
Burleson, we have not learned.
The parties are highly respectable.—
Gen. Burleson, the father and father-in
law, is well known beyond the limits of
Texas, having held many high positions
in the country, including that of, Vice
President of the late Republic. They
are people of warm temperament, how
ever, and carry their friendships and re
sentments equally far.

Omitting the description of the very beau

tractthe following from the Sun:
By means of a force pump in the cellar,
water is forced up into a reservoir above

and has been adorned with cornices of
a rich and classic finish, supporting six
pilasters, terminating with Ionic caps of

third and fourth stories. Upon these are
six additional pilasters, each terminating
with two'iconsols, which in turn**siîjàpo6t a

{t?*Tlie morals of Boston are effective
ly shown by Mayor Bigelow in his in
augural address. He says that dram
shops have increased in number, temper
ance has not been promoted, and riot and
licentiousness have multiplied to an a

to the prosecution of tavern keepers.
WINER'S
Canadian Vermifuge.
'T'HE best remedy ever yet discovered
for allkinds of WORMS. It not only destroys
Worms and invigorates the whole system, but it
dissolves and carries off the superabundant slime of
mucus, so prevalent in the stomach and bowels of
children, more especially of those in bad health.—
The mucus forms the bed orne3t in which Worms
produce their young, and by removing it, it is im
possible for worms to remain in the body. It is
harmless iu its effects on the system,and the health
ot^ tne patient is always improved by its use, even
ivheo no worms are discovered ; the medicine being
palatable, no child will refuse to take it, not even
the most delicate.
