Hloi. ISAAC HOLMES, lately a member ot Congress from South Carolina, went out to Calitornia to try a streak of luck. It seems that he struck a " rich vein" at a very early day. Soon aftei his arrival he purchased for $10,000, and professional fees in the case, and interest in some valuable real estate in San Francisco. It was in litigation, but the Supreme Court of California has de cided the case in Mlr. Holmes's favor and he is now actually receivinlg a ground rent of $1600 per month in advance, or an annual income, independent of his profession, of $19,000.
