PAUL, Isaac GLAZIER, and Wm. GIBSON, of this place, and Thos. PLATT, of Beetown, and Mr. BONHAM of the Hurricane left here during the last week for California. To avoid the sickness of the river they go by the way of New York and the Isthmus. -- Messrs. McNABB, PLATT and BONHAM, have but recently returned from the Gold Mines, and consequently are well experienced in the business of gold seeking. They are all worthy and industrious citizens, and we hope soon to welcome them back with packetsfull of the shining ore. --[Potosi Rep.
