&c. ; 1000 Californians ; 3000 Americans !
in all about 13,000; of whom 8000 work the mines, averaging perhaps four days' labor in the week — each man his own cook, washer, &c. ; 2000 are in business ; 1000 in mechani- cal labor ; 2000 gamblers and drunkards." The writer of this article declares that the 1849.] Political Miscellany.
319 missionaries, who controlled the country before the Americans conquered it, knew of the ex- istence of the placers. Ho tliinks that the colonization of the coun
...try and the introduction of American commerce will be a benefit to Central America and Chili ; but that San Fran- cisco, as a port of deposit, will lessen the im- portance of Valparaiso.
The political spirit of the American popula- tion in California is just what we should expect and desire. The Legislative Assembly of San Francisco have issued a manifesto, (see Herald, July 30th,) setting forth the circumstances of their origin, the perilous condition they are in, from the want of a popular government emanat- ing from, and therefore respected by, the people ; and condemning, in no measured terms, the neglect of Congress to provide a government for them, (a neglect proceeding, as every one knows, from the too equal division of parties upon the slavery question.) The manifesto claims for the people of California all the rights and privileges of citizens, and complains some- what naively of their being taxed when they are not represented ; the authors of the mani- festo quite forgetting that the entire recfion was purchased ?.t a cosl of $20,000,000,'^ by the United States, and that vast expenses have been incurred, and are constantly incurred by the Union, for the protection of the new- fledged liberties of California.
