Ralph Farnham, the sole survivor of the
battle of Bunker hill, now‘oue hundred and
four years old, walked six milesto.vote. He
has voted at every Presidential election
since the adoption of the ‘Constitutjon, In
ia letter-‘accepting an invitation to visit Boston about the 8th of October, he states that
/ he was about*eighteen years old when he
eolisted in the American Army,.and adds:
Tt seems strange that out of all who were
at Bunker bill, alone should be living. It
appears to me, though so long ago, as if it
. were yesterday. Ican remember the particulars ef the march after I enlisted—how
the people cheered, and when near Andover

A Brr.or Earuy Canirornian History.—

; was sent to Calfornia, from, the City of .
bit of the early history of California, He
Mexico, with instructions to take charge of
certain military forces, and with a request
to settle a quarrel between Carillo and Alvarado, who then kept-the Territory in s
such a settlement, the Mexican President
gave to Castjllero two orders, one instructing the Governor of California to grant
any island on the coast to Alvarado, the
other, a similar order in favor of Carillo,
and Castillero was to present one order and
destroy the other, at bis discretion—the
grant to be made to the one who gave way.
The result was that Carillo got the island
of Santa Rosa, Off Santa Barbara, and Alvarado was Governor in peace.—[Alta.
Moxo.—A gentleman by the name of
Owens called upon us one day last week,
direct from the Mono diggings, who reports
that the water is nowin by the new ditch,
and that the miners are now all doing well
—making money-that money is plenty at
the diggings, and business brisk of all kinds,
He also reports that the mewly discovered
silver leads known as the Esmeralda Leads,
have been found to be rich—that the prospects are far better than the original prospects at Washoe. He says the principal
. owners of the rich Washoe Jeads are investing in the Esmeralda leads largely, believing them to. be superior to thejr own
claims, Mr. Owens: says he encountered a
severe suow storm in crossing the mountains of the Sonora trail. The snow fell to
the depth of three feet. One train of “burros” were lost in the stow.—[Visalia Delta,

Horrors or Famine.—In 539, the year of
the-invasion of Italy by Theodebert, occurred a, season of dreadful famine. In
. Ancona alone more than 50,000 are stated
‘to have perished from hunger; and the Tuscans Were driven to feed on acorns, Procopius was a personal witness of its horrors,
He sat starving wretches fling themselves
down upon herbs and grasses, aud.make a
faint attempt to tear them from thé ground;
but their enfeebled strength often failed
them and they expired. in the effort. He
. saw their bodies left, as fhey fell, to blacken
in the sun, and displaying corruption in its
most hideous forms, Yer the ghastly aspéct
. of ‘the dead was exceeded fy that of the
survivors, Their livid bue was compared
to the color of an extinguished torch, and
their skin seemed closely adhering to thei
bones. Their haggard features were distorted with a wild and fearful expression,
and a gleam of maniac fury shot forth from
their hollow eyes. “Sometimes their lips
were. seen to drip with blood from devouring the severed limbs of their lifeless companions; yet even the birds of prey turned
from the carcasses, after seeking in vain for
some nourishment in those dry and wasted
. remains, 4
Suratoa.—The San Francisco papers
say, the ligation of the arteri innominita
has invariably. been negardéd as one of the
. most formidable operations in surgery. The
. first recorded attempt to ligitate the innominiata, as pearly as we can ascertain was
. made by the celebrated Dr. Mott of New
. York in 1828, He was succeeded by Richard Wilmot Hall of Baltimore, Graffe of
Germany, and Carbl of St Petersburg. but
. in each instance the operation was followed by the death of the patient, Two weeks
ago Dr, 1.S, Cooper of this city ligated the
. arteria Innomivata for a case of aneuriem
of the subclavian artery, and during the
. operation was Compelled to remove, nearly
half the clavicle or collar bone, us well as
a portion of the upper part of the sternum
. or breast bone. The patient is still alive
and appareatly doing well,
Orposition aT Home.—Yancey, Rhett &
Co., are opposed in their’ disunion ‘senti. ments by the capital of the Southern States.
The New Orleans Commercial Bulletin declares that.a breaking up of the Union
. “would not only cau-e the ships to rot at
the levee, and bankruptcy and ruin to follow in the train of disasters, bat the real es. tate of New Orleans would not be worth
twenty-fve cents on the dollar to what it is
now; cotton would go down to such a figure that it would not pay to cultivate it,
and the pall of general stagnation, the
wings of dreary desolation, would rest upon the land torn by internal dissensions,
and drenched in civil and fraternal blood.
Mexico is but a faint picture of what our
condition would be upon a gigantic scale.’’
Iitvois.—An eastern dispatch says : The
fourth election which has been held sinec
the opening of the present campaign has
resulted ia the choice of a Democratic
Meyor, George H. Buck, for the city of Laralle, by one hundred and seventy-five majority. The whole Democratic ticket, with
the exception of one Alderman, was elected by a like majority. This, considering
the fact that tbe city of Lasalle bas hitherto
been strongly Republican, is a glorious tri. umph, and tells the rapid etrides which the
Democracy are about making in Illinois.
Three times three for the. gallant Democracy of Illinois.
A RemarkaBte Casz.—The Barnstable
