It is proposed that Congress i,,ll «rant them ,and their compatriots who may ar- rive oil our shores, sufficient tracts of land t0 estab- lish a colony, and I have no doubt that it will pass Coii"iess. The old Governor wears a sort of blouse co'iMHitJ1 " German hat with a small red feather,ap- nire 'iitl y from the tail of a European cock pheasant.

[For the Barnstahlc Patriot.] Mr. Editor.—In the last Patriot, over the letter X, is an article, relative to the "Hyannis Institute," the "Coine-buters " and G. Now who this "truth-loving" "sojourner " and booby is, I know not , but w il l also take the liberty to "guess" (a privilege which all Yankees have) and therefore "guess" it is B. '-h imself',"' as it is in hirmony with' his former, false and slanderous state- ments, which no other being would be guilty of mak- ing. In the same paper B. informs us that he has taken off his gloves, I shall therefore "govern myself accord- iy", and before we get through, perhaps, he may wish to lay his grud qe aside. I Would inform B. that the "Colonel" is not so badl y wounded as he imagines, and that he is yet able to de- fend himself , from the poisonous fangs of the meanest and most loathsome reptile that ever crawled the earth . B. states that we are both well known in Hyannis , which is true, and I thank heaven it is so, as an impar- tial and intelligent community will jud ge correctl y, and by whose decision I am perfectl y willing to abide. But how js.it with B. ? Has he not some "holes in his char- acter" that need mending ? Ask if you please the most respected and honored citizen among us, how a debt of grnlitiifle-ha s bcen requited by B. Notice with what malignity he has written the last four weeks. See his unmanly attempt in his last article , to ridicule some of our worthy, industrious and valuable citizens. Look at the cowardly course he has taken to abuse and misrep- resent some of our best men , that ho denominates ''Come-outers" in the article signed X. refened to above, and then you will have some faint conception of the character of the being with whom I have to contend.— I would have gladly avoided any allusion to pr ivate character , which ought always to be respected. But *hen an individual violentl y assails the characters of others, every princi pal of justice and charity demands that his own conduct should be pointed out. Now un- less B.mends some of the "holes" in his own charac- | cr, his affected politeness and hypocritical smiles will w off little service in elevating him in some petty tow office. I would also state that I have no "personal enm ity against" B. My object in noticing him is (if possible) '« make a decent and civil man , desperate as the case m"y seem, I yet have strong hopes that I shall be able "> accomplish my object. "> closing I would say that B.'s presence will not be wanted at the "waxed end of Hyannis" (as he insulting- 2 wls the work shop and store of an esteemed and WOlPJ "neighbor) unless it lie to give him a sole, which *'Present he appears destitute of. *"• Editor, I did not intend to have noticed again ?nv remarks of B. But as long as he persists in assail- J nJ!Private character, so long shall I feel it my duty. iWuh y0Hr permission) to repel his insults . G. "yannis, April , 1850.

Thk bTUDKNT. !—There is still remaining some mystery about the rumor of a student entering the laboratory of Professor Webster , on the day of the murder of Dr. Parkman , and finding him over th e lifeless bod y of a human being, with a knife it. his hand . To prevent being attacked by the murderer , it is said , he promised never to divul ge what he saw.

The steamer Cherokee arrived this morning from Cha< rt*es with a month' s later news from California. She has one million fifty three thousand seven hun- dred and eighty three dollars in gold dust. The steamer Tennessee arrirvd at Panama on the 12ih of March. The Cherokee brings the mails from San Francis- co to March 1st. The letter mail contains 30,000 letters. A large fire occurred at Chngres on the evening of March 2U , by which the most of the old town of Chngres was consumed. Much properly was lost by the natives . The following additional news from California was received at Boston ,from New York by Telegrap h Friday evening. The steamshi p Empire City arrived this afternoon from Chagres. The. steamshi p Sarah Sands , from New York via Rip Janeiro , was going int o Val par- aiso when the Tennessee left that port. The steam- shi p Oregon left San Francisco on the 1st of March , and arrived at Panama the 20th , with ?92 passen- gers, and 1,300,000 of gold dust on frei ght. and $1 ,- 000,000 in the hands of the passengers. Many ol the passengers in the Cherokee , from New York , reached San Francisco in thirty six days from the United Stales. The Oregon leaves Panama for San Francisco on the 1st of May. One passcnger ,who came down in the Oregon ,ha; a lump of gold weighing 14 pounds , and has been of- fered $4000 for it. • The quantity of gold dust in possession of the min- ers was very large , and they were taking advantage of the weather to bring it down to San Francisco ; and succeeding steamers , it is supposed , will bring away larger amounts than have yet been shi pped by any one steamer. Il was quite health y at San Francisco and Sacra- mento city. Business was assuming,a very active appearance. Money was scarce, and loans were made at 10 to 15 per cent, per month. Lumber of of all kinds was arriving in large quantities , and pri- ces had materia ll y declined—good lumber could be purchased at $85 per thousand feet. The Commercial Advertiser has the following let- ter: San Francisco, March 1st.—Business is reviv- ing for the spring trade, and the miners are coming down for supp lies , and others are leaving for the mines. The y ield of gold is quite as large as in the summer of 1848, and as laige as at any lime last year. The rains of winter have done all that could be desired for the, mines—discovering new bars and develop ing gold—and unexhausted di ggins. The. health at the mines was generall y good. There is the usual amount of sickness on Ihe banks of the Sacramento and San Joaquin. In San Francisco there is much sickness from exposure and insufficient lodgings. Still San Francisco is generall y health y. No'placc is healthier for those w ho have means for comfortable living and good habits. Stockton,Fo1). 15.—Information from the south- ern mines is generall y quite encourag ing. The miners are in excellent health and spirits , having passed a pleasanl wint er in their mountain huts. — Provisions were generall y plenty and not dear.— New di"g ings have been discovered on almost every stream and ravine , and miners were onl y wa iting for settled weather. The largest number of persons congregated in any section of the Southern mines ,is in the Mn'riposi country. The whole region of coun- try extending from Mercedes to Fain Mari posi , ex- hibits externall y better evidences of gold than any other section of the Southern mines. It is said that a 93 pound lump has been found near Stanislaus . Deaths. Died at Hawkins Bar , Jan. 23, Gco. VV. Blanchard , of Boston. At sea , Jan. 18th , on hoard bark Conn , Enoch L.

San Francisco Markkts.—Bricks are in de- mand. Boots—No sale for thick ; thin of all do's- cri ptions are in demand , and commanding good pri- ces. Coffee—Manila and Rio very scarce ; sales at 12 1-2 a 15c Clothing—Finein good demand , and commands hi gh rates. Domestic Goods remain the same without transactions. Fish—Mackerel , No. 1, scarce and rising Fruits are scarce, and not in us- ual demand. Furniture very hi gh. Hardware—A lame quanti ty in Ma rket , and gooil rates obtained for '~ iiimiediate wants. Lumber.—No correct quota- lion can be given. Houses very slow of sale. The low rates of labor and abundance of lumber have caused preference for temporary erection of build- iii"S,accor(ling to taste ; hence the decline. Sugais are scarce , thoug h no material change in price. A sale of Montevideo in bbls , of brown at 13 1-2 cents. For Preserved Meats , the old prices are maintained , now that there is a demand for the Mines. Provi- sions—Prime Pork has varied. Sales on board , lit S27 Prime Beef no sales. Sales Mess,at $12 a 15; Bacon at 35c per lb. Butter has declined to 90c— Potatoes of good quality command 14c. Hams at 30c. California.—We have received papers up to the 1st of March. B. N. Berry I'"' been elected city auctioneer for San Francisco . Mr. Moore , the postmaster , was building a post office on his own ac- count. The Pacific News estimates the present pop- ulation of California at 120 ,000 male adults; _ and says the influx continu es. San Francisco continues to grow , and towns are spring ing up in . various di- rections. It," was estimated that five times as much gold' would be taken out this year as was taken out last year. A rail toad is talked of from Sacramen- to city to Colomna. Sixty seven thousand letters weie mailed at San Francisco in thirty two days.— The new iron custom house is nearlv completed ,and will afford amp le accommodations to the officers.— The Pacific News contains an urgent call on tbt' democratic party to unite on a candidate for state senator , and declares itself a democratic organ. [Boston Post , of Monday. LlTTLEFIBLD REWARDED .—About three o'clock Saturday afternoon , the reward which was offered by Robert G. Shaw for the discovery of the remains of l)r Geo. Parkman , was paid by him at the Mudi- ] cil Colle«e to Ephraim Littlefield. It was received in a check for thr.ee thousand dollars on one of the city ban ks and the money was immediatel y drawn thereon.—[Boston Herald. ^ Mr Richardson , first officer of sell Atlantic of Province .own , who alone was saved when that ves- sel was run down , off Cape Cod, by shi p Sophia Walker , has ret urned home in the shi p.
