American. That humble resting place is sought . out by our countrymen sojourning in the French . metropolis, and there, in sincere homage to the illustrious patriot, they look upon the grave of Lafayette. He lies in a small privatecemetery . attached to the grounds of an Augustin Convent, ' . guides the stranger to his tomb, since we visited the spot: the day was cold and stormy, and as we alighted at the porter’s lodge . we looked with a sad interest upon the dreary . place with its weather-beaten buildings and forbidding walls. Its faithful guardian an‘closure. “Ah sir,” he exclaimed, ‘you are an . American—none but Americans come here.” . Although the rain was falling, we advanced uncovered, for to us it was holy ground; a a few steps brought us to the extremity of the . avenue, . him the remains of his wife and of that beloved son who bore the name of George Washington . cani We stood in silence beside the . done by diplomacy in as many years.—Sac Bee. . Lafayette. . gravefof the illustrated patriot and thought up. on the land of our birth—the land which he . had so nobly aided in its days of peril. Around traced the sculptured names of de Noailles, de Grammont, de Montaigu, Rosambo, Lamoignen and others, all unpretending monuments, yet rich in historic recollections. How much of . this world’s greatness was centered in that . quiet cemetery of Picpus! Yet the pilgrim to . the humble mound covering the form ef Lafay. ette paused only before that spot to pay his . willing homage. How tue Goip Fever 1s Novrisuep.—A correspondent of the Pacific, writing from Jackson, a prosperous mining locality near Sutter, very truthfully exposes the origin of the impression . so generally entertained in the Atlantic States in regard to the productiveness of the mines. Speaking of a quartz mill near Jackson, which . has netted fair returns to its proprietors he . says: “We might mention vast receipts after the . manner of some, but though true in themselves, . yet they would convey a very false impression abroad. As an example, in the lead connected with this mill by one blast, rock of such richness was thrown out that three thousand dollars . were extracted from itinaday and a half of labor. But the real facts are, that the lead is . one of only moderate richness, while once in some length of time, a kind of pocket is struck in itof vast richness.

A late arrival from Mazatlan confirms the report that rich gold placers have been discovered in the mountains immediately east of Mazatlan. These mountains are of the Great Chain or “Back Bune” that extends along this entire continent from vorth to south. They connect the Andes with the Rocky Mountains. The foot hills east of Mazatlan are in form, very much like the foot bills of our own Sierras, and are distant from the coast some twenty or thirty miles. In breadth they are more than twice as extensive as the gold mountains of California, and if they prove to be only agrich, half the population of the world might make a fair living on them for centuries to come. Indeed, it isnot improbable that there is more or less gold in this entire chain, throughout both North and South America. If further advices shall confirm the richness of these mines, and indicate that they cover a , swered the bell and admitted us within the en-. large surface, emigration—Anglo Saxon emigration, will pour into that delightful climate, and soon outnumber the native population. Then Mexico will indeed be revolutionized. . New Governments will be erected and the northern States of that Military and Priest ridden Republic will be added one by one—peaceably and without purchase, to the North American Union. The single fact of rich gold placers existing there, would do more to Amerize Mexico in twelve months, than could be . . Tur Unpar Interest Money.—We have fre. quently been asked of late whether an effort has been made to recover the sum of $124,000 that was given to E. A. Rowe and the Pacific Express Coinpany to pay the July, 1857, interest, due in New York, and which amount Mr. Rowe, of course, did not pay. Upon inquiring, we learn that on the 3lst day of July last, District Attorney Hereford brought suit in the Sixth District Court in the name of Henry Bates, late State Treasurer, against the Pacific Express, E. A. Rowe, President and Agent, D. Brigham, Jr., Charles C. Bowman, James G. Stebbins, Solomon Heydenfeldt, James Haworth, A. G. Richardson and Archibald Woods, to recover the sum of $124,000, with interest from July Ist, 1857. The parties mentioned in the suit other than E. A. Rowe, are the signers of the bond given by Rowe to Bates, and are of course alike liable with Rowe, though we are not aware that they are any more peceniarily responsible. Mr. Haworth, when he signed the bond, was supposed to be worth $30,000 at least, but if common rumor be anywhere near correct, not a dollar can be made out of him on execution. The same may also be said, we are informed, of Richardson, Stebbins and Woods, but of the liability of Heydenfeldt, Bowman and Brigham, we know nothing certain.—Sac. Bee. A Goruic CastLe Unper toe Hammen,.-~The death of the late Earl of Shrewsbury has extinguished one of the oldest titlesin England, which bas been borne by the Talbot family uninterruptedly since the time of Henry II. The foun. der of the family was the celebrated John Talbot who figured so conspicuously in Shakspear’s historical plays, and the name has always been strongly identified with the interests of the Roman Catholic party in England. of which the late Earl was one of the leadcrs. The death of the Earl without heirs has induced the necessity of bringing under the hammer a vast colleetion of furniture, paintings, armor, and all kinds of miscellaneous relics which have accumulated for centuries in the Talbot family. Among these . WHOLE NO. 206. NEWS ITEMS. On ride ight, of Se t. 4th, the Union, n nD o C) ° ve Oak City, Sa the store of Alfred Ball, in ramento county, was set on fire about and consumed, The loss is estimated at between $3,000 and $4,000. The perpetrators of the deed are said to have been seme drunken fellows who have been hanging around that locality making their rendezvous at a house of bad character. Three of the parties were tried at a meeting of the citizens, and as there was evidence of their guilt, they were ordered to leave the same night. This did not seem disposed to do, when a commi waited upon them and urged their departure. One of them swore he would shoot the first man who laid hands upon him, and took aim at one of the party, who told him to fire. The man, however, lowered his gun and retired, and the other two ran off. Another man remains, who is supposed to be an instigator. Missine Man Founp.—The Yreka Union haa been shown a letter, dated at Whiskey creek, Trinity county, in relation te the man Sylvas, who, a short time since, left the Robinson House, in Trinity valley, in the night time, hat aud boots behind. The letter states that Sylvas, upon retiring to bed, imbibed rather freely of brandy, which had the effect of rendering him insane. He left the house at night, and after wandering over the mountains in the vicinity two days, finally came to himself, The letter states further, that when he came to his reason he had his money, amounting to about $250, about his person, and concluded if discovered by any one in his then condition, that he might be taken for a robber, and shot upon suspicion. He therefore concealed his money, and fetched up on Indian creek. He there found some friends, who accompanied him back to where the money was concealed, when he returned to Whiskey creek. Mysrrrtovus Homicme.—The Calaveras Chronicle says that a Chileno, name unknown, was taken to the jail of that county, on Monday, August 31st. He was found near Campo Neuva, in that county, lying with his breast across another Chileno, (who was dead.) with a bowie knife in his hand, with which, upon examination, several mortal wounds had been inflicted. The deceased bad in his band a small pocket kuife, with which some seven wounds had been inflicted on the one who survived. The suppesition is that they were both drunk, and got = a brawl, in which the homicide was cemmitted. Co.oravo Ciry.—The Stockton Argus derives information from the Colorado, and says that Ovlorado City, on the river opposite Fort Yuma, is a place of considera importance, and its position at the only secure crossing of the river, and at the head of navigation, make it certain that it will be a large town at no distant day. The territory of Arizona is not only capable of attracting immigration, but is now being rapidly settled. Old ranches, long deserted by the Mexicans, who had not the strength or the spirit to resist the Indian attacks, are being reoccupied, and will this year yield large and paying crops. A Cavtioy.—The Mountain Messenger,*of Sierra county, states that a man calling himself F. W. Smith, has imposed himself upon the Masonic fraternity at several places in this State, asa member of that order. in good standing in Jefferson Lodge, Rabbit Creek. In many instances he has applied for charity, and, oma plausible misrepresentation of his circumstances has invariably received aid at the hands of the brethren. He is a man about six feet in hight, dressed in miner’s apparel, and bears the appearance of being a laboring man. For Nomex Lackger.—Some seventy-five or a hundred Indians were transported from Oroville on the 8th inst., in charge of Messrs. Gatnbrel, McLaughlin and others. The aborigines were loaded into wagons, and their bows, arrows and yagers taken from them, and themselves trotted off in the presence of numerous anxious spectators. The poor creatures looked sad and down hearted at leaving their old home, and went away most unwillingly. It is the determination of the agent, Mr. Titus, to “corral’’ all the natives in that vicinity. IvsaxE Man.—The Marysville Inquirer says that a man named Slutz was taken from that place for Stockton on the 7th inst. He had been brought there from Rabbit Creek. He seemed hopelessly insane, and raved terribly. His bands being tied, he reached outside of the coach with them and seized hold of the wheels, saying that the coach should not start until he was ready. The spectacle was a painful one, and was witneased by a large number of people, who were attracted by the cries of the unfortunate man. Cauirornia Letrers.—The whole number of letters sent through the San Francisco post effice to New York, from September 5th, 1856, te August 20th, 1857, (one year,) was 968,637. Nearly half as many more went into bage sent direct from the interior towns, which were not opened at the office, giving about 1,400,000 wd annum from this to the Atlantie States and Europe, thus creating a revenue of $140,000 a year for postage from California. Incenpiany Artremrr at San Anpress.—On Friday night, August 28th, ata late bour, an attempt was made to set fire to the mining town of San Andreas. The flames were discovered by a watchman issuing from @ vacant house on China street, and were extinguished by smothering them with an over-shirt saturated with water. Marysvitte.—The Inquirer says there has been lees improvement in real estate in Marysville during the present season, than during any previous one since 1853. Sales of real property are very rare, and usually at very low rates, to raise money. There are few vacant stores, and rents are nearly as high as ever. CuINesE AND GUNPOWDER EXPELLED From Sonoka.—A meeting bas been held ia Sonora, induced by the fire in the town of Columbia, when it was resolved that all powder should be removed outside the city limits; also, that the Chinese should be forced to leave the place and . be prohibited from returning. Arizona Sitver Mines.— The silver mines lately opened at Arizeoa, Sopori, Santa Rita ‘and Barbarsomeri, number one hundred distinct veins of rich ore. Beautiful specimens of . this ore have been exhibited in San Francisco. . Copper Mixes or Arizona.—Between two and three millions of dollars are already invested in the copper mines of Arizona. The ore has been pronounced in London the richest ever sold in that market. Fire ty Yura Counry.—On Saturday night, September 6th, about 12 o’clock, Judge Haun, . . are included the armor in which John Talbot, . of Marysville, hada hundred and fifty tons ef the first Earl, encountered Joan of Arc, and died . hay destroyed by flreon his ranch. The loss under the walls of Peicters, and the baoners. vas about $4,500. that have survived the wars of the Roses or of . the Commonwealth, to be sold at last a auction to the highest bidder. Alton Towers, the prin. cipal seat o the family, and which, according to London, “presents the finest combination of . garden building. with garden scenery, anywhere existing in Europe,’’ is now open for the purposes of the garden.-N.
