A Stum Wagon in California.—
In the Sun Francisco Herald, of the 5th
uh., we find the following:
No little astonishment and admiration
was excited on Saturday last by the ex
ploits of the steam wagon recently import
ed f/otn England., At lli o’clock a. m.
the pp»dor.'us machine was got ready, its
cargo of coals, wood and water taken on
board, u id a tender attached containing
about tt\V,-j!y-five hands employed at the
Vulcan FoiicfijfjjL aU bound for a trial trip
to the Mission Dolores. On its deck were

It then tabktyl ship apd lookback to

to t gliten scre-vs. adjust bolls, etc.. <eie..‘
the croff’beiug quite new and stiff in the I
joints. After reaching the city the wagon
went on a sort of exploring expedition,
climbing Folsom sued lull frcfoi Third
