A Ridn to tfco Cliff House How San Francisco Is loca ed Its Kockj luffs and ha-d mils lone licunta ii i f mi'terlcs The Uolda Gau he Pacific 0 ean he hcsls tscene from ihc UI2T House. Editorial Correspondence. San Francisco, Cal., ) September 27, 1SC9. ) Every visitor to San Francisco goes out to the "Cliff House" as soon would a stranger visiting the attraction of New York think of passing by Central Park. The Cliff House is a pleasure resort or watering place on the opposite side of the peninsula from the city, on the Pacific Ocean, built out on a rocky cliff immediately outside of the Golden Gate, or entrance into the bay and harbor of San Francisco. In going over the road, gevsn miles, we see much of the city and "the character of it3 immediate Rurronndinsrs. For attractiveness of location the present site of San Francisco never would have been chosen; they were purely commercial reasons which v selected the epot where the city is now built, amid the sand nilis ana rocKy oiuns nf ihfi eastern side of the peninsula. Old citizens, who came here in 1&49, tell me that it presented a desolate and unattractive prospect for a great city when they first landed, ,:A great chaDge has been wrought la twenty years, and many streets of ban Irancisco rival those of our Eastern cities of two centuries growth. But as we get out towards the suburbs, the naked sand-hills appear with the same forbiddins look of twenty years ago The high winds which so often prevail here blow these Bands down the streets of the city and render them verv unoleasant at times, iiut as tne increasicg population extends the city Hmit3. these unattractive hills are brought down towards the level of tne streets, covered wuu nouse3, ana with a slight covering of clay, a very proline soil is soon made, which, with wonderful rapidity brings forth beautiful gardens of liowers and shrub bery. Unattractive as they may ap rear, tho Chicago delegation when here exDresscd a longing to be pos sessed of some of these huge sand hills to break the painful deadness of their level area. . v Midwav between tbe city and the Cliff House, are situated the princi pal Cemeteries, clustered around Lone .Mountain, a solitary peat rising nign above the surrounding hills. Hero are Laurel Hill, the Catholic, Odd Fellows, and Masonic Cemeteries in different enclosures, and all separated from each other. It struck me as in very poor taste for the Masonic and Odd Fellows Societies, Protestant organizations, to build up distinct and exclusive grounds, when they could do so much by united effort to beautifv and make attractive the general City Cemetery. Laurel Hill, with the bleak sand hills so lorbiding, is already assuming a very attractive appearance; and in time will, doubtless, be made one of the most beautiful "c' :ies of the dead " in the country. Its diversified surface admits ot great adornment, and the wealth and taste of the San Franciscans are sparing nothing to beautify it. The most coticeabre features of the grounds are the monuments to California's most distinguished and lamented Senators, Broderick and Baker, which stand -on adjoining hills. Well may this people erect proud tablets over the graves of these, her noblest sons. A curious piece of architecture is the Chinese Dead House, a kind of vault, where the Chinese deposit their dead preparatory to transportation to the Celestial Empire. Tne road leading from the city to the Cliff House is a grand wide avenue, constituticga splendid drive, and upon which are seen the fast turn-outs of the "6porta" and magnificent equipages of the Gold princes of the city. Few places can boast of prettier and faster horses and more elegant "teams" than San Francisco, and over the Cliff avenue is their favorite drive. As we pass along the avenue we get an excellent view of the celebrated Golden Gate, the entrance to the harbor of San Francisco. It looks more like a river than an arm of the sea, being not more than a mile wide as it winds in from the Pacific to the broad bay within. With the Coast Kange coming down on the north side close to the water's edge and the Cliff hills on the south side, it looks very much like the Hudson as it winds down amid the Highlands. The length and narrowness of the Gate or entrance, the high bluffs on either side, and the islands which confront its opening within the Bay, appear to render the approaches to San Francisco and the interior waters imnrecnable from sea vessels. Before the war the Golden Gato was fortified, but during the war the defenses were greatly strengthened, and 1 was in formed that the work was still go ingon. The Cliff House occupies a charm ing position, high up on a rocky promontory, with a magnincent view of the sea and surrounding country. As I stood near the piazza, and looked for the first time on this grand old Ocean, whose broad, expanding bosom reaches to tho Celestial Empire, the "Farther Ind," and the far off islands of the South Sea, and a3 it stretched away to the horizon appeared so peaceful and quiet, it seemed thaf. it was rightly named by the old Spanish soldier, who first looked upon its apparently placid surface from the heights of Panama, . and christened it tho Pacific. But after I had drank ia the full inspiration of this.quiet scene, I looked far below where I stood, away down, among tho ragged roeks, and these same waters, which appeared so placid out in the distance, came in great angry Ewells dashing the foam and spray hirh up against the Eolid face of the cliff, and far off on tho long sandy beach rolled in huge crests, and spent their force along the shelving shore. It was the great unquiet ocean, ever throbbing with its ebbs and flows, sometimes peaceful, but never at rest. The landsman's visit , to the shore of the great sea is ever pleasant and ' inspiring, with its fresh breezes and pure air; but here there is a novelty witnessed, which, I believe, nowhere is presented on the Atlantic coast. Immediately in front of the Cliff House, a few hundred yards away, rise up in 'the ocean three rough masses of rocks or small i

i 3 4 r

islands, to tho heigth, possible, of a hundred feet. Up onto these rocks a vast number of seals climb out of the water to sun themselves. The whole surface of the ragged rocks is a constantly shifting scene of life. On the rocks and in the water there appears to be an innumerable army of these great lubberly creatures, splashing and swinging around in the water with great ease and swiftness, but crawling or tumbling up and down the rocks with awkward, flabby, eli ay motion, and creating a perfect babel of noise with tbeir howling, coughing sounds, sometimes resembling the baying of hourds, but much hoarser, and others somewhat like the lowin of the cow. Some ot these curious sea-Iioas arc perfect monsters in size, weighing, it is, said, over two thousand pounds. It was to me a novel sight, and I sat out on the t;iazza of the Cliff House, and watch

ed them with a field glass by the hour. About them flew the sea gulls, or lighted in their midst at will, with no apparent fear; and on the highest points of tho rocks were perched the tall white pelicans. Oil to the right was the Golden Gate and the high hills, whose extended ranges locked in the peaceful Bay. Standing out to sea were a number of trading and coast vessels flecking the sky with their sails. To the left, high up on the sand, was tho hulk of a wrecked ship, driven ashore a year or more ago; and beyond it the carcass of a great whale floated in from the ocean. Scores of fancy "teams" were to bo seen on the beach-drive for miles away to the South. I did not wonder that the Cliff House and the sea shore here wa3 an attractive place to the San Franciscans. And its great value is that in this climate it is constantly in season, being a pleasant place of re sort throughout almost the entireyear. only occasionally suspended during prevailing high winds or the worst of the rainy season.

J Weeks can be profitably spent in and about ban Francisco, J. give in this letter a few notes of what I saw in a single day's ramblo over the city ' Before breakfast I walked down to the old Washington Market, the best for the display' cf fruits and fish especially. All the market housss which I have seen here are within the squares, and not standing in the streets; and from the street resemble any other one or two story buildings, but tney are open inside, runnirg through the square from street to street, and are from one to two hundred feet wide. I have in previous letters alluded to tho fruit of California. It is the wonder of all Eastern visitors; and here in the markets it i3 geen in the greatest profusion. The fish stalls are attractive, presenting much the same appearance as those of tho Eastern sea-board cities, but having some varieties I did not remember having seen there. California is so wonderfully prolific in her productions that her citizens greatly dislike to acknowledge their inferiority in anythicg, but they are forced to confess that they cannot equal the oysters of tho Atlantic coast. Nono of the oysters which I have seen here would bo considered even passable with us. In the markets and elsewhere almost everything in the way of vegetables and fruits are sold by the pound and not by measure as with us,, including apples, pears, potatoes, &c. Cents are unknown here, five cent pieces are never used, and the smallest change seen is a dime. A thing that is not worth ten cents is considered not worth selling. A "bit" is the smallest price upon an article, and that nominally is twelve and a half cents, but it i3 either ten or fifteen cents, as the caso may be; if the price is a "bit" and you hand the market man ten cents, it answers ; but it you do not have a dimo and hand him a quarter cf a dollar. he only returns you ten cents chance. As no five cent pieces are used, he gets the benefit of the " odd chaDge." Alter breaktast by the way. while San Francisco is well supplied with fine hotels, there is no city in the United States, of half its population, which has as many and as good rcstau rants; the cooking is well done; and the charges quite reasonable. After breakfast 1 went down to tho Post OfSco and received my mail less than eight days out irom home. Here in the Government building in which the Post OSce is situated aro to be seen the effects of tho earthquake cf last year, in tho cracked walls and disjointed columns. : In the Custom House looms above the entire cornice and plastering were broken off and thrown down; and the building i3 now cgusiaereaunsate. Lemg in charge of a prominent citizen, , tborouehlv arrmnirifPil nnf nf the orty-JNiners, we drop in and look through a number of public and private Duuaings, about which there is nothing so unusual from other large cities as to require special mention. But here is the offica of Wells, Far go & KjO. s Jbxprcss Company one of me institutions or tho Pacific coast, and tho building has a history worth noticing. It is ot gray granite, two stories high, and when erected was considered the finest house in the city. It is entirely the product of Chinese labor; the stone taken from a quarry ia China, the blocks were cut and fitted in that country by Chinese workmen; brought to this country in ships, and put together by Chinese without the sound of hammer or trowel, each block, previously marked by Chinese characters, fitting exactly to its place. I doubt whether the Irish workmen of this city, who mistreat and despise them so tbor0U,?IyV? ou,ld tava donc better. Ihe Bank of California is the great money power of this coast, and its banking-house in this city i3 vHted by all who want to see one cf its most D?w ii003-the kindness of W. C. Lalston, Esq., Cashier, and one of the best business men in America, wo were shown through "all its interior workings, including its C0Jq vaults. The constant ring of the precious metals indicates the character of its business. On the tellers' tables are great trays piled full of gold eagles and silver coin. At the lteceiving Counter stand & crowd of depositors with their bank books in one hand and a heavy bag of gold in the other, or more usually swung over the shoulder: while the clerks aro bnv in counting and raking in the deDosits bv tho shovel lull. While often, as to day, outside on the pavement aro teen great freight wagons unloading scores of boxes of Mexican dollars just

received from the lower coast steamer nnl tha TC-rnrpss Companv delivering

silver and gold bars from the mines of tne interior. e u. '".-" vaults piles of silver and gold bricks or bars, some separate, others in combination, some of them being as high ia value as $5,000 to $3,000. We did cot see a single "Greenback" passing over the counters in the way of business, although they are sometimes bought and sold, as gold is by our banks. The entire, force of officers and clerks is forty-two. JNext ni order we visited the United tates Mint, a citcy contracted look ing building, but within whosa walls more gold is coined annually than in all the other branch mintsin thecountry. I found ii charge cf the Mint Gen. LaGrange, well-known in war tircc3 to many of our Indiana soldiers. We were shown by him the entire pro cess, trom the time the gold dust is received, through all the stages of melting, reunion, molding into ingots beating into bars, cutting out the rough pieces, molding milling, stamping, &o., till th;3 bright, yellow mint drops come ringing over tno counter ready for circulation. Many of our readers have seen the process fcr themselves, and it would not be particularly interesting to those who have not to describe it in detail. When they take their ride across the Continent to San Francisco, thty will not fail to see it for themselves. From the Mint we went through "Chinatown," or the Chinese quarter of the city to the "Josh-House," or one of the Chinese co operative houses and Temple3. The "Josh-House" is situated on a narrow street or alley, and the approach to it is by no means prepossessing. In tlie lower story in front were crowds of immigrants, just arrived from the Celestial Empire, lounging about smoking an opium and tobacco mixture in the shape of a cheroot, or in a small pipe ; and in the back room is the cook house or kitchen. On the second floor in the front room was another crowd of Chinese immigrants, who. under their charity or co-opera tive system, ara provided with quarters in the "Josh-House" until they find friends or employment. In the back room is the Altar and the Idol. In fron of the Idol is a table or Altar, on which are placed various instruments or articles of Chinese manufacture whose relation to the Altar or service we could not understand. Between tho Altar and the Temple was sus pended a luniD, which is constantly kept burning. The Idol is the image of a man of not very comely mien, sit tins cross-legsed, with folded arms and he is surrounded and enclose above in a kind ot Uhinese bower or frame work about twelve feet wide and reaching nearly- to the ceiling On cither side are a row ot poles o staves, on the tor s of which are fasten ed different kind sof grotesque images or characters, lho walls, altar, an Iramc-work oi the idol are covered with flags and fancy colored paper with Cninese inscriptions. Ihere are four such places in the city, but this is the principal one. Alter getting all toat it was pos sible for us to gather in th way cf information from our inter preter, which wa3 not very inter ligible, we next visited one of the common Chinese restaurants, going through tho dining hall, where the Chinamen were eating with their bowls and chop sticks, and taking look into the kitchen, which was pro nounccd by the ladies of our party a sickening, filthy establishment, and they were about r;cht; tor the Lhi nesc are, in their cocking and living apartments, a dirty, slovenly people although in their arcss and genera appearance they are quite cleanly and neat. Alter lookicg into some o their shops and places of entertain ment or lesser note, wo were invited into the stoic of one of the leading Chinese mcrcaatilo firms or the city and were received by the propri etors and clerics with a cordiality and politeness which would have done credit to any establishment. In broken English they explained to us their variou3 curiosities in goods and ware?, and while thus being agreeably entertained a pot ot choice tea had been prepared, and the whole com pany, numbering eight cr ten, ladie3 and frentlemen. were regaled with drink in genuine Chinese styie, beiore bidding our hospital merchant mends good-day. Several letters might be written on the habitt, character, pres ent position, socially and politically, and the luture ot the Chinese ol California, but I must postpone them now. Several hours had thus been pleas antly and profitably spent in looking arousd tne city, and the time had arrived to fulfill an engagement to a lunch on the China, one of the Pacific Steamship Company's magnificent Japan and China steamers. Here in San Francisco the business people and the hotels lunch at about one o'clock, and take dinner from six to eight p.ji. Alter looking over the steamer, of grand proportions and five thousand tons burthen, a pleasant company was gathered around the Captain's (ablj in the main cabin, and what made it" the mere agreeable, the guests proved to be mainly Hocsiers, among whom were Vice President Colfax, Gcd. Coburn, of Indianapolis; Gen. John L. Miller, Ala j or 1 ope, anl their ladies. lo-inoiTow 1 contemplate a trip around the Jay and down the iamous Santa Clara ahey, nnd then 1 turn my way homeward.
