CALIFORNIA.—Several papers are speaking in high praise of the land, climate and population of California, as if its annexation to the United States was actually anticipated. It is said to be as fine a country as Kentucky, with a milder climate, and plenty of well-wooded streams. The inhabitants are of the purest white race from the north of Spain, descendants of the Goths, and akin to the Saxon, and particularly friendly to the Anglo-Americans.
