About Santa Rosa and Sonora morning the 'plains we white with frost as the hills. It was at first supposed that was killed, and unquestionable damage was done, but the first usual, proved worse than the as has since been proved by an indication of many orchards. The grape crop was in very severe; in others but very a general thing the early p suffered most. The Buena Vita suffered severely. The native as badly hurt as the foreign vita is now evident that the vintage better than last year, when thirds crop was raised. The frost was remarkable. In some walnut trees were killed, and apparently as much exposed unhurt. General Vallejo says perience of thirty-six years he seen a severer frost. He says icans are too fast and prune to safety. It was on the night last year that the heavy frost. The frost nipped the mulberry Sonoma, and thus deprived Me of a convenient supply of food for his silkworms, but he ed small lots from other places delay the next hatching of new leaves are thrown out. A correspondent writing Helena, Napa county, says he by the very best authority in that a very good crop may notwithstanding the frosts. They have in prospect an abundant cereals, esculent roots and vegetables any amount of fruit. In Los Angeles the damage oranges and vegetables by throughout the county, has learable While crops in some escaped almost entirely, other most entirely destroyed. The Late Frost. Always the Calistoga Tribune: The late last although had enough at best, has been quite so disastrous in this vicinity was at first supposed. A great portion of the crop in the hillside vineyards will be saved, as well as those in vineyards which were pruned late. The recent severe frosts have done considerable damage to the fruit crop through El Dorado county. Early fruit, such beaches and cherries, have suffered the worst severely. At Coloma, Uniontown and Kelsey the damage has been very great, and from present indications there will not be, at Coloma, Uniontown and Placerville, and other elevated spots, the damage has not been half so great as in low places and along the marsh of water courses. At Modesto, Stanislaus county, grapes were in bloom were injured as were many varieties of garden vegetables. The damage to fruit, however, does not bear to have been very great. About Healdsburg, Sonoma county, the prospects have been seriously damaged. Charles Alexander says that the rich and almond crop in Alexander valley will be total failures while the apples Which Was Beaten? We were boys together, George Gibson and I. We were employed as salesmen in a grocery store. Business being quite dull, our employer gave us permission to close the store, that we might attend a ball to be given that evening. I had been paying my respects to Miss Kate H. George also seemed interested in her welfare, and knew that I would be certain to send her my compliments sometime during the day, and request her company to the ball. In order to get ahead of me he sent his invitation quite early in the morning. I was not in a good humor after George triumphantly showed me his note of acceptance; so when evening came I determined I would not attend the ball or stay in the store. We closed about dark. George was ready to start, but had a few moments to spare, when, as it amuse himself, he picked up an old revolver, which we always kept about the store, and was pointing it at different objects in the room, remarking how easy he could put a hole through it. When he pointed it at an oil can, which was quite full, I immediately inserted a pin near the seat of his pants, which caused him to pull the trigger, Zip! the bullet went through the can, and About Healdsburg, Sonoma county, the prospects have been seriously damaged. Charles Alexander says that the ash and almond crop in Alexander valley will be total failures, while the apples short and the grapes are much hurt. At Suisun the frost, though making havoc among certain vegetables and in places, yet the injury is not so as was at first anticipated by many. The grape crop in the valley suffered more than in the foot-hills. The frost did a great amount of damage to the vineyards and orchards in and out the vicinity of Folsom. The late evening vines, however, have mostly dried. Parts of Placer county the frost was particularly severe on peaches, apricots, grapes. Nearly all the peaches in the gardens of George Trelkel, John C. Boggs brothers in that vicinity were killed. In immediate vicinity of Auburn it was also bad. Calaveras county, according to the Elumne Hill Chronicle, the prospect for fruit crop is unusually promising. Apple, pear and cherry trees are coming handsomely, and the vineyards hit every indication of an abundant crop. About Mokelumne Hill, and among lower ranges of foot-hills, no perceptible damage has been inflicted by the severe weather. Sound Jackson. Amador county, the farm damaged nearly every kind of fruit which was in bloom. The peach crop be almost totally killed. The grapes revive and yet come out. The frosts were quite destructive in tons of El Dorado county. In the neighborhood of Placerville, the damage the apple and pear crop will, perhaps, amount to twenty or twenty-five per cent. The neighborhood of Gold Hill there hardly any damage done. At Colo-land Uniontown there is much depress-ion spirits among the orchardists and growers, fears being entertained that entire grape and peach crop is utterlyoyed. About Santa Rosa and Sonoma on Saturday morning the 'plains were almost as with frost as the hills with snow. As at first supposed that all the fruit killed, and unquestionably much damage was done, but the first report as proved worse than the actual fact, as since been proved by actual examination of many orchards. The damage the grape crop was in many localities would not attend the fall or stay in the store. We closed about dark. George was ready to start, but had a few moments to spare, when, as if to amuse himself, he picked up an old revolver, which we always kept about the store, and was pointing it at different objects in the room, remarking how easy he could put a hole through it. When he pointed it at an oil can, which was quite full, I immediately inserted a pin near the seat of his pants, which caused him to pull the trigger. Zip! the bullet went through the can, and the oil commenced running out in quite a stream through the holes the bullet made. "Jump, quick, and stop the leak with your fingers!" I exclaimed. George knew the mischief would be to pay if our employer found the floor covered with oil, and he obeyed my order immediately. Then a happy thought struck me; I would leave him in that fix, and go and take Miss Kate myself. Amid a volley of oaths, I made my hasty departure. Arriving at the residence of Miss Kate, I informed her that George was not able to attend, and had sent me in his stead. Miss Kate accepted his apology, and we attended the ball together. It was late when I returned to the store, and found George still in his uncomfortable position, swearing at me profusely. The bullet had passed through the can, and he dared not remove either hand. I then procured an empty barrel intending to pump the oil out below the bullet hole. In order to do this, it was necessary that he should be on the other side of the can. He agreed to the change if I would hold my fingers over the holes until he went around the can. This I was unwise enough to consent to. No sooner had he got me in this fix, than he proceeded to wash his hands; then taking up the lamp, he went upstairs to bed. I was mad; language cannot begin to express my feelings. I swore, I entreated, I then tried to bribe him to relieve me. Like him, I dare not leave the can, for I knew it would cause my dismissal if our employer found the new floor spoiled with oil, besides the damage it would do to the goods. How I spent the remainder of the night I shall not attempt to describe; It is sufficient to say I stayed there until morning. The Future Price of Wool. The New York Economist says: "There is one thing certain that in the midst of all this fluctuation and uncertainty wool is very scarce, and prices are not only very firm, but buoyant. Indeed, strange as it may appear, prices are nearly as high now as a year ago, when we take into account the high rate of interest and gold, with nothing to move." The Future Price of Wool. The New York Economist says: "There is one thing certain that in the midst of all this fluctuation and uncertainty wool is very scarce, and prices are not only very firm, but buoyant. Indeed, strange as it may appear, prices are nearly as high now as a year ago, when we take into account the high rate of interest and gold, with nothing to warrant such a feature but the short supply available and the large demand for consumption." Walter Brown & Sons, in their circular say: "It is, however, quite noticeable that a firm feeling pervades the whole trade, with the general opinion that early in the new year higher figures will be obtained, resulting probably from the fact that stocks of domestic wools in Eastern markets are very light, and such wools as still remain in the West are mostly held by farmers and second hands at extreme rates, with no indications of yielding before the near approach of the new clip; also that few, if any, orders have gone abroad for foreign wools, owing to the unremunerative character of last season's operations. Henry P. Hughes & Son, of London, in their circular of December 5th, 1872, say: "If the present activity in the woolen district should continue to the commencement of the first sales for the coming year, we may reasonably expect that stocks of colonial wools in the hands of both dealers and manufacturers will be considerably smaller than has been witnessed for many years past. We anticipate good prices throughout the coming year." The heavy frosts of the 3d and 4th inst... did an immense amount of damage to the gardeners in the vicinity of San Leandro, Alameda county. A large part of the early peas and potatoes around there are about ruined. The damage to the fruit trees is not so extensive.
