A. NEVADA, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY Tutare U. S. Survey.—The San Joaquin Republican is publishing a series of interesting letters from C. D. Gibbes, who is connected with the U. S. Survey in the Tulare country. The letter from which we condense the following intelligence is dated near the base of the Coast Range, June 24. The information conveyed relates to that portion between the Coast Range and the slough, connecting Kern and Tulare lakes. The land near the tules is generally a low alkali soil, unfit for cultivation, white and light.— There is no good soil west of the slough. After traveling the road about thirty-five miles the Tulare lake is reached, where the slough connects with it the tules extended one or two miles north into the sheet of water. The water on the margin is unfit for use, but further out is better. The horses had become so weak from eating salt grass and from the scarcity of water, that sometimes they would drop, exhausted. They were sent into the mountains to recruit upon wild oats. One thousand posts are wanted for section corners ; men have gone into the mountains to cut them. They have to be hauled, together with water and grass, a distance of twenty-five or thitty miles for some part of the work, the ccntract embracing a tract of country twenty-four miles north and south, and extending east from the base of the Coast Range forty miles. According to Mr. Gibbes’ account, the work is exceedingly difficult and laborious. Often they are compelled to enter tules measuring from seventeen to twenty feet in height, wading in water up to their arm-pits to pass the transit over, walking eight or ten miles to commence work, surveying six or eight miles and then returning to camp over hot, arid plains, with but what little water they can carry jn their canteens. Numerous bands of wild horses, antelope and elk roam over the plains, the latter at this season are in the tule lands.— There are three or four hundred Mezicans encamped in the mountains, who are engaged in catching mustangs; when they saw the surveying party they wished to know if Government wanted the mustangs. Although they are armed with revolvers, and go about in large parties, they appear to have a dread of the wild Indians, as they inquired very’ particularly if we had seenany, and if they shot arrows. No sign of any on this side of the lake. On the south-east shore of the lake is Juan’s rancho, which contains fifty or sixty Indians, but they are quite friendly; they live on elk, fish, wild fowls and grass seads, and cultivate a few melons. There is a wagon road from here running west into the mountains, which the’ Mexicans say goes to San Louis Obispo, distant about a day and a half’s ride. Some veins of gypsum, and some astains. It is not uncommon for the party to find two or three scorpions in their beds in the morning, or to kill one or two rattle-snakes during the day, but none of the party have been stung or bitten yet. Race between Ocean Clippers —The following account of the recent race of two of the finest clippers afloat from San lake, but on the west side it is an open} Population of San Francisco. i 28, 1854. has started a building 20 by 50 feet, on the lot No 167 J street, nearly opposite the above. Messrs. Van Winkle & Duncan are constructing one 40 by 41 feet on the west side of Fourth street between Tand J. Mr. Wikoff will, in a few days, commence a building 20 by 50 feet, on the lot adjoining that of Mr. Kauff, above mentioned. We are informed that Mr. Godeschaux, of San Francisco, wil] soon enter upon the erection of a brick building 20 by 70 feet, on the north-east
corner of J and Fifth street. With the above we think we can let the brick pile slide for one day. ‘ The Ohildren at the Circus.—F riday was a regular gala day for the juvenile They had a “free blow out,” and availed themselves of it by accepting the invitation of Messrs. Lee & Marshall in attending their Circus performance. We were there, and were wholly taken by surprise at the large number of children present. Every seat was filled with the females, and yet they were not all seated, while the boys had to stand up. Suchan array of bright happy coun-. tenances we never saw assembled before. We have heard their number variously estimated at from two to three thousand— we think the latter nearer the mark. The amount paid over to the School Library Fund was $273 50.— Com. Advertiser. A Joke.—John Smith was in the Sion! of Sessions for stealing a horse, which was proven to have been ridden by him to Hunter’s ranch, nine miles from town. The defense was tha! the horse was taken in joke. The jury thought the joke was carried too far, and sent the accused te the} State Prison for one year.— Adv, A Wicked Wag.—Some wag lately consigned to involuntary imprisonment a respectable elderly gentleman of Exmonth, Sooo WHOLE NO. 170. 6 ere Bas We are indebted to Wells, F argo & Co, for the early delivery of the Sonora Herald of the 22d, from which we gather the following items : Great Walking Feat in Sonora.—A bet of one thousand dollars has been made that amannamed Frank Markley will walk for ninety consecutive hours, on a plank three and a half feet wide by sixteen feet long. He commenced the performance of this feet at 5 o’clock last evening, on the ten pin alleys of the Long Tom Saloon, in this city. if he succeeds in accomplishieg his object, he will have outdone the great pedestrian feat lately performed in San Francisco. which was limited to eighty hours. Columbia.—-Tie town is fast rising from its ashes. Buildings are going up on every side, and where so short a time back all was ruin and desolation, there is now the commencement of some as fine buildings as a:f} in the county. Hil; on Fire—For the past two or three days the hills in the neighborhood of Sonora have been on fire. The extreme heat has dried up all the grass, so that a spark almost will ignite it and cause the hills around to be covered with fire for days at atime. The first impression amongst some of our citizens on seeing it was, that one of the mining camps in the vicinity was burning, but it happily proved otherwise, Fatat Arrray.--The Miner’s Advocate gives the fellowing particulars of a fatal affray near the Indian Diggings, on the 16th inst: Two men named Williams and Cartwright, had a difficulty about a game of Monte. Cartwright went to Cedarville, and at about one Ae it p. M., returned with nine of his friends —among whom were Dr. O P. White and J. Moore. ‘The party entered a house where Williams was at the time, wnen Cartwright first torew stones at Williams, and then engaged him in a fight.

The consequence was, the olc gentleman, referring to his vane every morning as was his custom, to see what quarter the wind was in, and not suspecting anything was wrong, was kept in doors, thirteen days after it had been changed. The way to settle a Dilemma.—A testator left to his eldest son one half of his horses, second one third of his horses, to his third one ninth of his horses—the testator had seventeen horses. The executor did not know what to do, as seventeen will not divide by two, by three, nor by nine. A Dervish came up on horseback, and the The Dervish said, “take my horse and add it to the others.” There were then eighteen horses. . The executor then gave to the eldest son one half, 9 ; to the second son one third 6; ‘and to the third son one ninth, 2; total, } Bar The following is a copy of : a handbill in circulation hereabouts, and whieh has caused a great deal of enquiry, as to what it means.
