The first discovery of Gold in California was DON JOSE IVALVEAR, an eminent aiah Geologistt, Chemist, and Natural Philoso- ". means of wwly invited J!l«8«wticia struinent, called The GoldometerVbr GoldSeeliSrH Gttlde!

pner, by

Sc Cl«ir»viU«,

Signor D'Alvear has just arrived at New York from the Gola regions of California, by way of Panama, Chagree, and New Orleans, bringing with him a very large quantity of gold ore, valued at nearly one million of dollars, which he collected there, long before the existence of the Gold mines became Known to the residents of California generally^'

History Of the Discovery.

9%aor D'AlvtSfwcuiuui iv California nearly two years ago, ia consequence of certain information which he had received of the geological character of that country, with the firm belie! that vast mines of precious metals would be revealed there, upon careful investigation. He was encouraged to this enterprise, also, by his confidence in the powers of a certain magnetic instrument which he bad invented, called the'Koldometer," by whose aid he expected to be directed at once to the "Gold Placers," if any such existed. Nor were his expecta tions disappointed. His scientific calculations

roved to be founded in troth and profound wis and his new instrument, the "Goldometer,' fulfilled his highest hopes. In less than two months after reaching California, he struck upon one of the richest gold mines in that country, upon an obscure branch of the Sacramento river, in a gorge of hills extremely rocky and difficult of access, and seldom visited by the native Californiane. Disguising his object under the pretence of purely scientific research, he obtained the aid of some fifteen er twenty simple and faithful Indians, and steadily pursued his task, collecting ftften more than $3,000 worth of gold in a single day. which he concealed in a deep ravine, without exciting any suspicion whatever, until after the discovery of gold at Capt. Sutter's mill, when the mountains were ransacked by gold seekers, and Signor D'Alvear's "gold placer," the richest in all California, wasbeset with greedy adventurers. It is now found that the real mines or sources of the gold, lie in the gorges of the mountains, and not in the beds or sands of the rivers. Previous to leaving California, Signor D'Alvear sold his instrument. the Goldoineter, a very imperfect one, for $3,000. The person who purchased it confidently expected to make al handsome fortune, by simply finding "gold placers" and selling out the right of digging to the gold workers. Maaafacture of the Goldometer, and publication of the Gnide.

Signor D'Alvear, in compliance with the re quest of numerous scientific gentlemen, has commenced the manufacture of his new Magnetic Instrument, the GOLDOMETER, which he now offers for sale, in the United States, at the remarks bly low price of THREE DOLLARS each, accompanied by full instructions for use, and a variety of Philosophical hints drawn from the ancient and modern sciences, or

The Art of finding? Mines of Gold! Silver, Platinum, Quicksilver, Coal, Iron, Copper, Lead, and other Mineral Riches, the whole being given in a publication called the

Gold Seeker's Guide

This new work, and the GOLDOMETER, are both now ready for sale. The GOLDOMETER is so simple an instrument, that a child may learn to operate with it in five minutes. It is not affected by climate, moisture, or any other known cause, (except the natural magnet.) and will retain its power of pointing out mineral riches in the earth fo any number oT years. By the aid of the Guide nny person may use the instrument with perfect success.

Farmers and Land Owners. Farmers and Land Owners throughout the United States, who have reason to Buspect the existence of any kind of Mineral riches upon their lands, should avail themselves of this opportunity to test that fact, by the surest of all known tests, before the abundance of discoveries in all parts of the country shall have lessened this source of wealth in their estate.

Adventurers to California. Persons going to California cannot make a betin an ha in of he in struments, which will not only be Worth fifty times its value there, to sell again, but will be of inestimable worth to those who go in search of Gold, as has been proved by the most abundant experiment both in California and the United States.

Testimonials.

Signor D'Alvear does not deem it necessary to encumber this notice with along list of testimonials. in proof of the value of his GOLDOMETER. and GOLD SEEKER'S GUIDE. The brilliant results of his labors in California, and the discovery, this very week, of fresh veins of Gold in Virginia, and beds of coal in Rhode Island, by its use, arc alone sufficient to stamp it as the greatest discovery of the age. Nothing but the extreme cheapness of the instrument, and his desire to see it us«l for the benefit of mankind induces him to dispose of it at the low price lor which he offers it.— Besides this, his own desire for wealth is nearly satisfied.

Tho following testimonials, in proof of the valof do el a re at ber equally satisfactory, must suffice for the present

ASTOH HOUSE, NEW YORK, Dec. 21,1848. The undersigned, having this day witnessed the practical operation of Signor Jose DeAlvear'a newly invented magnetic instrument, the GOLDOMETEIT, feel entirely satisfied that it possesses the extraordinary power of detecting Mineral ores hidden benonth the surface of the earth, nnd have no doubt that it will prove an invaluable aid in the discovery of the Mineral resources of the United States and the world.

This may certify that the undersigned is fully convinced thatSlenor Jose DeAlvearwas the first discoverer of the Gold depositee of California, and that this discovery Wst $ made by the aid of a Magnetic instrument called the GOLDOMKTF.R, which I have seen successfully applied to the discovery of veins ofGold ore, in places where no indications of that substance appeared upon the surface of the earth.

T. W. SHERMAN, Lieut. 3d Art. U. S. A. No Agents. In consequence of the. difficulur of finding faithful agents, and of preventing frauds, where articles of this'nature are sent out for general sale, Signor DeAlvear has determined to sell none of his works or instruments unless ordered bv letters sent directly to him, when tho desired publication or instrument, will be forwarded under his signature and seal, so that all doubt as to its genuineness mav be removed.

WBEWARB OF ALL IMITATIONS of this Instrument which may hereafter appear, as the secret of imparting the Gold Detecting power is known to no person whatever, except the original inventor.

JttrThe GOLDOMETER, and GOLD-SEEK-ER*S GUIDE, will both be sent by mail, closely enveloped and sealed, and therefore, not subject to inspection bv Postmasters, for the sum of THREE DOLLARS, sent post paid to SIGNOR JOSE DK ALVEAR, Box 2713, New York City. The Instrument is very light, and the Guide is printed on thin paper—so that the charge by mail, or express, will he very small to any part of the United States.

IMPORTANT CAUTION-READ!

There is but one genuine preparation of Wild Cherry, and that is Dr. Swavne's, the first ever offered to the public, which has been sold largely throughout the United States and some parts of Europe and all preparations called by the name of Wild Cherry have been put out since this under cover of some deceptive circumstances, in order to give currency to their salea By a little observation no person need mistake the genuine from the false. Each bottle of the genuine is enveloped with a beautiful steel engraving, with the likeness ot William Penn thereon also "Dr. Swayne's signature, and as a further security, the portrait of Dr. Swayne will be added hereafter, so as to distinguish his preparation from all others. Now if it was not for the great curative properties and known virtues of Dr. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry, persons would not be endeavoring to give currency to their fictitious nostrum^" by STEALING the name of Wild Chern\ Remember, always bear in mind th6 name of Dr. Swayne, and be not deceived.

Read tlie Certificate. Still another cure of Pulmonary Can* sumption.—There never was a usmady that has been so successful in desperate cases ol Consumption as DR. SWAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF WILD CHERRY. It strengthens the system, and appears to heal the ulcers ou the lungs, creating new and rich blood a power possessed by 110 other medicine. WONDERFUL CURE OF A METHODIST#

MINISTER.

DR. SWAVNK—Dear Sir: I feel it a debt of gra titude due to you—and a duty to the afflicted gsa

erally to offer my humble testimony in favor oftf your COMPOUNDSYRUPOF WILD CHERRY.*-* £k»me three years since, I was violently attacked

pain in tiie breast and head, a very discharge of offensive mucus from the lungs, eape-i^ dally upon changes of weather, however slight.— At first I felt no alarm about my condition, but"» was pretty soon convinced that I was rapidly go-s»? ing into consumption. I grew daily weaker, and at length was scarcely able to walk about, or speak above a whisper, such was the nxceedinj weakness of my lungs. During this time 1 kal tried various preparations and proscriptions, but found no relief—growing all the time worse. Just here I was advised and persuaded by a dear friend in ^Wilmington to make a trial of your

syrup

ot1-

Wild Cherry. I must confess that previously I had been prejudiced against patent medicines, and I am still against those coming out of tho hands of empirics, but understanding yonr claims to th« profession and practice of medicine, and hav ing implicit faith in tho sayings of my friends, I forthwith purchased of Dr. Shaw, one of your agents, a few bottles and commenced its use.

My disease was at that time of 20 or 25 month's* standing, consequently it was deeply seated. 1' found, however, considerable reliet from ths ussp of the first four or five bottles. But being a public speaker, I frequently attempted to preach with my Increasing strength, and thereby ruptured the as^ vessels that had. already begun to heal in this way, doubtless, my cure was greatly retarded/— In consequence of acting thus imprudently, 1 had t* use twelve or fifteen bottles before I was perfectlyrestored. I have no ouestion, a much smaller number of bottles would have made me sound, but for the above indiscretion. The Syrup allayed the feverish habit, took away the distressing cdugh put a (top to thedischarge of matterfrom tne lungs, and gave them and the entire system good health. I have deferred offering this certificate until now, for the purpose of being perfectly satisfied with*, the permanency of the cure, and now that I fe«J perfectly well Ioffer it with pleasure.
