The Knickerbocker tell# of place "down eaat"where the gold fever roges with remarkable fury. A young lawyer tlmn, remarkable for veracity and disinterestedness, gives out that he is often receiving letters from the gold region, and he entertains his neighbors by reading them gratis. The following is his latest:' «We arrived at San Francisco three weeks ago yesterday, and after stopping there four days to recruit and make preparations, we set off for the gold region. The country on the banks 01 the Sacra* mcnto is exceedingly fine, and the soil the most fertile in the world. We passed several wheat fields which had just been reaped, and would yield over two hundred bushels to the acre. There is, however, one draw back this country is much infested with noxious serpents, and more than as likely as not in picking up a bundle of wheat, you will take a huge rattlesnake in your arms! We passed along up the river without making much stop, and soon we came to the gold region. We found the gold in small grains or particles. My companions all stopped to gather it, but 1 thought 1 would keep on, and go to the headquarters, if 1 could find them. I soon came to where I found the precious metal in lumps as large as a walnut. Penetrating the country further, I found it became more plenty, and 1 frequently noticed pieces of gold the size of a common teakettle. In fact, the appearance Pennsylvania, of the country in many places reminded Philadelphia City,

me of one of our New England cornfields after the corn has been removed, and before the pumpkins are gathered. Still I did not stop there, but kept on towards the source of the river. Here the country is broken and mountainous and large boulders of gold of the size of a five pail kettle were very common. I came at length to a mountain, in which I suppose the river takes its rise. On the side of my approach it was very rough and precipitous. At the base of a high cliff I looked up and saw, about one hundred and fifty feet above me, and almost over my head, a mass of solid, shining gold, large as a bunch of screwd hay! It seemed to be suspended by a single root, or vine. I had nothing with mo but my gun it was loaded with ball, und my first thought was to fire and cut off the chord by which the glittering mass was hung! hut as I was on the point of firing, it occurred to me that if 1 did, the gold would infullibly fall on me and crush me so I

"Indictable Music."

At a late term of the Darke county, Ohio, court, a lot of gentlemon were indicted for a riot—or rather serenading a wedding party. The Greenville Banner contains the charge of Judge Holt to the jury. The charge is similar to one he mado in a similar case in Preble county, only a littlo more elf»quent.-— The parties were convictcd. ••The assemblage of three or more persons with hells, horns and firo arms, and with these to approach the house where a family resides, rattling bells, blowing horns and discharging fire arms, especially in the night senson, calculated to alarm and terrify the inmates, is against the peace, and riotous. Nor does it change the character of such a transaction that a wedding was the occasion of it. Nor can it be justified on the ground that it was intended as a serenade, and was customary in the neighborhood whore it was enacted. In this ago of progress, while progressing in physical science and improvements ot evory kind, we should soe to it that we do not fall behind in the progress 01 manners and morals. ••Some of the witnesses have spoken of a custom in that neighborhood to honor the wedding with music of this kind. Such a custom is illegal it belongs not to civilization, and should not receive the sanction of a court and jury sitting in a civilized community. It has been said that •Marie hath charms to sooth the savage breast.' It must indeed be a savage breast that can be soothod by the hideous sounds of cow hells, horse fiddles, rain's horns, and like musical instruments, rattling, ringing and commingling together, and interposed with occasional oxplosions of gun powder. ••Such serenades arc unlawful and riotous. Such is the law. The jury will

Detroit,

[Michigan.]

Da. H. Swayxe—Dear Sir: We have been in receipt of your invoice of WILD CHERRY for about two weeks, and we must say that we feel encouraged that the sales will be extensive this year. One customer, who came ,/or the second bottle, stated that his 4', wife had been given up by her pbysi cian recently, supposing that sne would not survive store than. twenty-jour hours. A consulting physician pronounced her esse desperate—both of them are of high standing in this place as scientific men and gentlemen. The first ittle had the effect to strengthen her so much, that she leaves her bed and Moves about the house. Her husband seemed very much satisfied, and proposed to use six bottles, as be felt confident it would perform a perfect cure. Wo feel confident ourselves that it is much superior to any medicine of the day, and in justice ought to take the precedence. Yours, respectfully, G. & J. G. Hill. STILL ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE!

Dr. SwAYfre—Dear Sir: Having contracted a severe cold, which settled upon my lungs, attended with a violent cough, pain in my aide and breast, difficulty of breathing, 1 was attended by physicians of the first respectability,but my symptoms became very alarming there was an abscess formed in my lungs snd made its way through my side, and discharged large quantities of puss externally, so that my physicians thought the power or functions ot one of my lungs were totally destroyed—therefore supposed the case entirely hopeless. This mournful state of things continued for along time, until I was wasted and worn to a skeleton. I had tried a number of remedies, but all failed to do any good. But there still being a spark ot hope left with me and my aiyious parents, and having heard of the great virtues of yourCOMPOUND SYRUPOF W1LDCHERRY, and of its being recommended by physicians of the first eminence, I concluded to make trial of it, and to my great satisfaction my cough gradually

I was attended by four or five different physicians, also having used various patent medicines, but all of no avail.

CALIFORNIA GOLDJ D16C0VEBED BY SIGNOR D'ALVfcAR'S GOLDOMETXX

Gold Seeker's Guider OR,

Secret Art of finding Gold, Silver, frpaii Lead, Copper, Coal, and other Mineral Riches.

Signor D'Alvear went out to California neany two years sgo, in consequence of certain information which ne had received of the geological char-

acter of that country, with the firm belief 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 whicli he had invented, called the "Goldometer,"by whose aid he expected to be directed at once to the "GoldPlacers," if any such existed. Nor were his pectations disappointed. His scientific calculations proved to be founded in truth and profound' wisdom, and his new instrument, the "-Goldometer," fulfilled his-highest hopes, in less than two months after reaching California, he struck trporf one of the richestgold mines in that country, up'6r? an obscure branch of the Sacramento river, in tt gorge of hilla extremely rocky and difficult of ac-' cess, and seldom visited by the native California ans. Disguising his object under the pretence of purely scientific research, he obtained the aid of some fifteen or twenty simpleond faithful Indians, and steadily pursued his task, collecting oftert

__ Los AtfoEips, California. Angust, 1848. This mav certify that the undersigned is folly convinced that Signor Jose De Alvear was the first discoverer of the gold deposits of California, and that this discovery was mnde by the aid of a magnetic instrument called the Goldometer, which I have seen successfully applied to the discovery of veins of gold ore, in places where no indications ot that substancc appeared upon the surface of the earth. +. W. SHERMAN, Lieut. 3dArt. U. S. A.

No Agents.

In consequence of the difficulty of finding faithtill agents, and of preventing frauds, where articles of this nature are sent out for general sale, Signor DeAl vear has determined to sell none of Ms works or instruments unless ordered by letters sent directly to him, when the desired publication or instrument will be forwarded urn^!-his signature and seal, so that all doubt as to its genuineness mav be removed.

nreiy of gold in California wfi JOSE D'ALVEAR, an emincn

The first discovei made by DON Spanish Geologist, Chemist, and Natural Philoso pner, by means of a newly invented Magnetic in-, strument, called The Goldometer, or Gold Seeker's Gnide

Signor D'Alvear has just arrived at New YorL from the Gold regions of California, by way of Panama, Chagres, 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.

®3,000 worth of gold in a single day,-

which he concealed in a deep ravine, without ex-f citing any suspicion whatever, until after the discovery of gold atCapt. Sutter's mill when the mountains were ransacked by gold seekers, and Signor D'AIvear's 'gold placer the richcst in all California, was beset 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 bed8 or sands ot the rivers. Previous to leaving California, Signor D'Alvear sold his instrument, the Goldometer, a very imperfect one, for $3,000. The person who purchased it confi.* dentlv expected to make a handsome fortune W simply finding "gold placers" nnd selling out tho nght of digging to the gold workers. Manufacture of the Goldometer, nnd Pub-

Signor D'Alvear, in compliance with the request 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 remarkbly 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 a-.

Gold Seeker's Guide!

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

Farmers and Land Owners. Farmers and land owners throughout the United States, who have reason to suspect the existence ofanv kind of mineral riches upon .their Ionds, 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 better investment than by purchasing one of these instruments, 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 California ahd the United Mates.

Testimonial*.

Signor D'Alvear does not deem it necessary ta encumber this notice with along list of testimonials, in proof of the value of his uOLDOMETFR and GOLD SEEKER'S GUIDE. The brilliaiit result 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. are alone sufficient to stamp it as the greatest discovery ol the age. Nothing but Hie extreme
