'' th e year , and the general dissatisfaction of the

The rivers are rising, and people are coming down
from the mines. Vegetables are very scarce. Po-
Mtoes sell at SLf- nts per pound. Ship Iowa has
been sold for $-_, 000,and has gone to Chili for flour.

^Another lettefsays—"Trade is brisk ; the provi-
sion market active ; traders are layman stock for
winter. Common pork $50 per barrel ; extra clear
$65. Flour $40 per bbl.
At San Francisco during the past week the pri-
ce' of provisions advanced enormousl y, causing the
common laborers to strike for hi gher wages. They
had been , up to the 12th , receivin g $7 and $8 per
jjjy on the . 12th they took their stand on Clark' s
Point , and refused to work for less than ten dollars
nar day. A few " greenhorns ," who engaged to
work for $8, were not allowed to go with their em-
tiloyers , and were severel y maltreated for "cutting
under." During the day, upwards of five hundred
laborers remained on the Point , who ,towards dusk ,
obtained the services of a drum and fife, with which
they marched throug h the mnddy streets until late
at night , yelling and hurraing.
From the Mining Regions.—A very intelli-
gent gentleman just returned from a long tour of
observation throug h the mining district concludes
that its greatest riches have not yet been reached ,
but still await the labors of miners more experi-
enced and skilfu l than those engaged in the work.
At the same time he places the average gain of the
whole body of miners how emp loyed at a considera-
bly tower figure than is usuall y given. The obser-
vations of our informant full y confirm the general
impression that there is to be a serious deficiency
in the winter stock of provisions in the mining re-
gion.—Pacific News, Nov. 14.
The Parkman Tragedy—Additional Tes-
timony.—The Albany Evening Journal contains
the following statement :—
The Coroner 's Inquest elicited testimony which
bears hard against the accused. Among other things
it was shown that a tuft of hair grew on one of Dr.
Parkman 's shoulders. And strangel y or providen-
tiall y, among the fragments of thu body found , was
a shoulder vvith the unusua l mark 1 The tea chest ,
in which parts of the bod y were found , packed in
tan bark , was broug ht from Professor Webster
house on the Tuesday following ihe murder . The
anonymous note written to a friend of Dr. Parkman ,
directin g attentio n another way, is found to match
with a part of a sheet from which it was torn , re-
mainin g in Professor Webster 's room. A witness ,
entirel y reliabl y, walking behind Professor Webster ,
between Boston and Cambrid ge, saw him drop a pa-
per so mysteriousl y thai he intended to pick it up
when he came to the spot , but another person coin-
in* alo ng firs t, picked it up and walked off without
say ing anything. That paper was the check which
had been paid to Dr. Parkman for rent! How true
is it that "murder , thoug h it hath no tongue , speaks
with miraculous organs."
The N. Y. Courier and Enquirer says that "the
circumstances by which Dr. Parkman 's bod y is said
to have been identified , strong as it seems to be, is
made stronger by another fact which comes to us on
good authorit y . " It is stated that some years since ,
Dr. Parkman was subjected to a surg ical operation ;
and that upon the headless and limbless trunk found
in the vault of Professor Webster 's apartment , there
was a sear , which was identified as the. mark of that
operation , by the surgeon who performed it."
Views of Gen. Cass on California.—The
editor of the Prairie , II!., Democrat says of a recent
interview with Gen. Cass :—
" We had it from the li ps of Gen. Cass himself ,
but a few months ago , that he should 'certain l y vote
for the admission of California as a state , with a con-
stitution prohibitin g slavery,' as he considered that
the onl y leg itimate way to settle the question in the
territories . We understand this to be Gen. Cass's
position ,without any hearsay or conjecture about it. "
Gen. Tay lor seems to have taken the same posi-
tion in his message.
Capital Trial at Worc ester.—The trial of
filliam E. Knowlton for the murder of Prudence
Arnold , at TJxbridge, in January last , by cutting
lier throat ,was commenced at Worcester on Wednes-
day. The prisoner is a man of about 23 year s of
flge, with a dull and heavy expression of the counte-
nance ,and very ordinary intellectual developments ,
while Prudence , the murdere d girl , was but eleven
years and ten months old. Knowlton , after the act ,
went into the street , and there attempted suicide by
cutting his own throat . He subsequentl y made full
confession of his guilt , and assigned as a reason for
the deed— "love and jealousy ."—Boston Courier.
IgSTSincc the above was in type , we learn that
Knowlton has been found guilty of murder , thej ury
ha vimr been out an hour and a half.
We are at peace with all the world , and seek to
maint ain our cherished relations of amity with the
rest of mankind.—President Tay lor 's Message.
That 's not so bad. Old Zaek don 't wish to re-
strict his goodness to this world , probabl y, and de-
sires to be appreciated in the next. "All the world ,
nnd the rest of mankind" will undoubted l y feel re-
joice d at the universality of our peacefu l relations.
<£j,,. . ' [Boston Hurald.
We suspect that Old Zack meant by "the rest of
mankind" Congress and California—thoug h a free '
soil friend of ours insisted upon taking it as a pers on-
al allusion. —[Lowell Vox Populi.

AS TO THIS
CURES EFFECTED BY DR. CORBETT'S CON-
CENTRATED SYRUP OF SARSAPAR1LLA !
Perhaps nofin the record of time has any prepara-
tion of remedial agents been broug ht before the world ,
which has proved such a blessing to suffering humanity,
and saved so many thousands from the grave , as has
DR CORBETT'S CONCENTRATED SYRUP 01?
SARSAPARILLA.
Introduced into the system in minute quantities , it
occasions no offence as do the drenching Sarsaparilla
mixtures of the day.
It corrects all diseases of the Stomach , as Dyspepsia ,
&c, and their attendant evil—Consti pation of the Bow-
els. It dispels acidity, removes all obstructions of the
Liver, subdues cutaneous derangement , and goes back
to the first great cause of disease , by
CLEANSING THE IMPURE FOUNTAINS OF
THE BLOOD.
It is recommended by the ablest Physicians in the
country, and used in their practice.

troubled with Dyspepsia ,Scrofulous Affections , General
Debility, &<.:, even from infancy. By the recommenda-
tion of my father, Dr. Wm. Prescott, formerly of Lynn ,
Mass., and now of Concord , N. II., I was induced to
make trial of Corbett 's Shakers' Sarsapanlla byrup I
have taken two or three bottles , from which 1have
found great relief. My health and strength have very
mnch improved , and I recommend all who are troubled
with similar comp laints , to try this valuable medicine.
I am still taking this syrup, and feel confident it will
ultimatel y cfl'ect a cure. I know of others who are tak-

cleansing and healing qualities.
