The expense of this building was $50,000; and, as an illustration of California investment of capital, and consequent depreciation from the original cost, we would mention that the same property was recently sold for the trifling sum of $11,000. During his prosperous career in this State, Mr. Lee} made a voyage to Europe expressly for the purpose of procuring the services of new equestrian talent, and has expended large sums, not only in the prosecution of his business, but in making liberal donations for public and charitable purposes. It is stated that the amount of his contributions for the latter object was not less than $50,000. To the different fire departments in the State he donated some $20,000; to public schools, $10,000; to Masonic, Odd Fellows and other be. nevolent societies, $10,000; to religious institutions, $5,000 ; indigent persons, $9,000. reer of prosperity, Mr. Lee was obliged from Various untoward circumstances to } succumb at last and encounter the frowns . of fortune. He was not the individual, however, to stay crushed; and his energies, through the assistance of warm . triends, have enabled him to fit ont anew . the most brilliant establishment that has . ever visited the Pacific coast.— Union. and to CALiFoRNIA CONGRESSMEN. — The . a plan of co-operation with the Ladies i Butte Record makes the following just Notwithstanding a ea. remarks under this head : The law of Congress of 1842, requires “Shall be elected by Districts composed of contiguous territory, equal in number to the number of Representatives to . whith the said State may be entitled, no one District electing more than one / the United States. that . Representative.” It will be seen our Members merely hold their seats by suffrance. 1 no longer, but send them back to be elected according to law.

Ricuest Leavin tun Country. the Marysville Express says the Brush Creek Quartz Company's Lead, situa. ted ove mile and a half from the Mountain House, on the road leading from the Mountain House to Forest City, by far, the richest lead known in all the northern region of country.

ATTACKED By A Witp Beast.—The = ‘ i. PORES Folsom J¥spatch mentions a report in. its neighborhood, on 27th March, that John E. Lake, well known in its loeality, had been horribly mutilated about a mile up the American river, by some . wild animal. An ANGRY DAD DETERMINED To Ssoor Somespopy.—A miner near Buekeye, Shasta county, took to wife lately an interesting young lady, without the consent of her papa, who was named Nieman. Tne Shasta Courier, tells the sequel, as follows. The old gentleman loaded himself with a full charge of lightning whisky. and his rifle with the proper al owance of lead and powder, and repaired to the yicinity of the residence of the man who robbed him of his daughter, and not finding him at home, went gunning after one of his partners, [a Mr. Low] at whom he tried his skill ata distance of about 75yards. The ball just missed the cabesa of the unofiending partner. T ERPSICHOREAN.—Somebody deseribes the absurd appearance of a man dancing the Polka in this wise: “He looks as though he hada hole in his pocket, and was trying to shake . a shilling down the leg of his trowsers.

We hope the author of the “Giant Judge” will dive into the matter and clear it up. It would be somewhat humiliating if the devoted worshippers in the seventy-thousand-dollar Bush street . church were listening to the observations of ragged, “rascal” apostles. They . do not imitate the walk and conversagies, however, and when the imaginative and historical Doctor had dressed up Paul and Peter, “and them,” fit to appear in fashionable churches, the venerable old gentlemen would hardly know themselves—at least, they would . not, if the same artist sketched them who drew those miserable illustrations of Samson. Like Hutchings’ Magazine, the Doctor’s artist is ‘eminently Californian,” and under his pencil we shoutd expect to see Paul preaching on Mars Hill tn a swallow tail coat, from a San Francisco slop-shop, and with a bellcrowned hat of the time of Andrew Jaekson’s boyhood: while John, instead wild-lone¢y eomb in his hand, would have a patent leather belt with a revolver and crevicing-knife, with a fiftyFOUND IN Hvum-. RnoLpT Country.—A petrified mastodon . tooth was recently picked up in the bed It weighed three and a} pound flour sack strapped on his back Indeed, the Doctor's illustrator is particularly unfortunate in conveying an exjact idea of h’s own eonception to the . spectator. We have heard it argued . that his picture, which, we think he designed to represent Samson earrying off the gates of Gaza, was only a sketeh of the “Big Jailor,” Estell, earrying a box of beans and spoilt beef to the State Prison, at San Quentin. If he couldn’t make the Apostles look like “rascals,” nobody could.— Triniy Journal. JounN MUST HANE HIS Opitum.—The following colloquy, according to the Placerville Index, took place recently, . between the Carson Valley expressman, {Thompson,] and a Celestial, as the former was jeaving the Valley : Sick Chinaman— You come California, i John?

The New Orleans Delta, Walker's . “The fillibuster excitement has pretty audience and the actors were much disturbed by the barking and howling of a dog in the vienity of the theatre, and this howling became excessive during au effective scene; at last, “Camile,” in declining an interview witha visitor, thus addressed ker maid: “tell the Count he need not wait, Iam not well, and cannot go out to-night ; and stay—one moment. Find some one to hang that dog.” The addendum, says the Free Press, was given in a lower tone voice, but was distinctly audible, and gave rise toa cheer which overcame even the gravity of the actress for the moment.

Which adulterated compounds are intended to sell in California against my genuine article. 8 My object is to announce thatI have recently estab= lished an AGENCY IN SAN FRANCI=CO for supplying the State and Oregon with my Schnapps, and that hereafter I will always keep said Agenty supplied with a large stock ; so that respectable druggists and liquor dealers throughout California can always supply them s¢lves at a regular price, merely enongh ver the New York price to cover Cost of freight and charges ; thur avoiding complaint as heretofere, of occasiohal searcity and extreme high price Z ‘ : . It is now many years since T first imported these “thnapps from the celebrated distillety in Seheidam, Hollqnd, in which I am interested. It is now conceded that np Gin was ever imported into this country which ha approached my Schnapps in regard t PURITY, HEAL PHFULNESS, and EXQUISITE AROMA or fia vor. This Lclaim, and for proof, point to their tinivé: sal popularity and the immense and increasitig fohsump tion by all classes, north and south, east and west, comprising the temperance people. medical faculty; &e., .o such an extent that my establishment, packing the enor mous quantity of 8,000 botues per day, is barely ablé till its orders. Also, the Wolfe’s Schnapps have been analyzed the most celebrated Chemists, Drs. Mott and Deek, éf NewYork, aud others who will certify that they are a Perfeetly Pure Medical Tonic. Invaluable as a remedy against Bad Water, Gravel, In digestion, Dyspepsia, Debility, &e. They also certify that they found my Schriapps to be free from Arnylio Atcohol or Fusil Oil, an exceedingly hurtful ingredieni, fonnd in allcommon Gin, which Dr. Mott describes 2° fetid, acrid, and Asthmatical 4nd prodiétyg irreparadi: effects upon the nerves and stomach.’ The _ certificate also prove my Schnapps perfeetly clear of “the Second or heavier Essential Oil or Juniper, also a dangerous component, produced by the over distillation practiced to increase the quantity in making ordinary Gin.” These statements are made with a view to invite com parison in California between the genuine Wolfe's Sehttapps, and the various brands of bogus imitations, mixed, doctered up, or ~~ ; insquare, black bottles, (imitatin of thy style of bottles) under, differeut names and labels, whether marked London, Germany Holland Scheidam Schnapps, &e., in infinite veriety— confident that the trial will result in California just as ic has fong sinfe done in all the older States, tn repudic*ing all the bogus, unttholesome imitations referred to, and the complete tritiimph of my pure Scheidam Schnapps. desire briefly to Notice two facts which have lately added largely to the use of Wolfe's Schnapps in the city of New York and elsewhere.
