New Hampshire Statesman

Back Again. We see in the streets quite a number of gentlemen gold diggers, who mounted the California hobby in a hurry, but are glad to get off again. They got as far on their pilgrimage as that terrible half way house, Panama, and there had a glimpse of the “Elephant;” but rather than accompany the animal as far as El Dorado, they sensibly concluded to come back to Gotham again,—some of them in the same vessel which carried them out. Some of these gentry inform us that they are entirely cured of the “gold fever,” and are now half disposed to throw away their “washbowls,” and go to work, for an honest living, here, in a Christian country, among Christian men.
