PRODUCTION OF PRECIOUS METALS .- The yield of precious metals west of the Missouri river for the year 1875, 1876 and 1877, as furnished by John J. Valentine, General Super- intendent of Wells, Fargo & Co's Express, was as follows :

Increase over 1876, $7,517,054, equal to 814 per cent. There has been a constant and steady gain in the production of the mines since 1873, as follows :
1874 $2,142,532 | 1876 $10,015,700
1875 6,488,012 1877 7,517,054
It is the opinion of the best authorities that the production will continue to increase from year to year for several years to come. A gradual increase may be looked for in the productions of Utah, Colorado and the Northern territories, and a rapid development of rich mines in Arizona, stimulated by railroad connection with San Francisco, while Cali- fornia will probably hold its own. Any decrease that may occur in the present bonanzas of the Comstock lode will be more than offset by gains from the several sources men- tioned.

This amount is the largest ever coined in one year by any mint in the world. The coinage of the Philadelphia Mint for 1877, was $18,339,414, and of the Carson Mint, $4,020,020, making, with San Francisco, a grand total for the United States of $72,131,434, of which the San Francisco Mint supplied more than two-thirds.
MANUFACTURES .- From the table of the City and County Assessor we gather some interesting statistics. The number of manufacturing establishments in the city is 718, employing 26,583 hands, including men, women and children. The total value of produc- tions of these manufactories for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1877, is given at $60,267,767.

ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES .- As California is accessible to immigrants only by sea and one great line of railway, her growth can be quite accurately determined by the record of arrivals and departures. The largest immigration was in 1875, when 108,700 persons arrived and but 43,200 departed, leaving a net increase of 65,500. This was the season when the comfortably fixed farmer at the East sold his possessions to purchase in a land where there is no winter, and where the cultivator of the soil is supposed to receive larger returns for less work than elsewhere on the continent. Many came and prospected only to learn that the lands of the State are, to a great extent, held in large tracts. Many came with the ability to purchase small farms, but found it difficult to secure suitable tracts, and returned spreading wide the story of the monopolized State, to the utter discourage- ment of their neighbors who had also designed emigrating. Hence the year 1876 showed a marked falling off in immigration.
1877 was heralded abroad as a dry year on the Pacific slope, and the tidings had the effect to still further check the tide that was Howing towards us. The number of arrivals in 1877 was 17,831 by sea and 47,435 by rail, a total of 65,266. The departures were 15,725 by sea and 31,253 by rail, total 46,9781; leaving a net increase for the year of 18,288. Of this gain 16,188 are whites, and only 2,100 Mongolians. This small accession of Asiatics was probably nearly if not quite offset by deaths among the resident population of about one hundred thousand of that nationality in the State
CLIMATE OF SAN FRANCISCO .- The tables annexed are from the records of Mr. Thomas Tennant, kept by him since 1849. They give the Rain Table, with the number of rainy days in each month and season, from 1866 to 1877; a table of mean temperature for each month and year; and also tables showing the extremes of heat and cold during the same period, which will be sufficient to give a very fair idea of our climate. The standard ther- mometers with which the observations are made, are placed in position to face the north, and be perfectly free from the influence of any direct or reflected heat. It will be seen by reference to these tables, that the average yearly temperature of San Francisco during the period indicated, is 50° 3'. The hottest day was in June, 1877, when the thermometer reached 99 degrees. The lowest point indicated was at daylight on the morning of De- cember 28th, 1867-20 degrees; but these extremes occur so seldom as to be considered remarkable. The general routine of the seasons is as follows: Commencing with the rainy season, which generally sets in fairly during November, continues through December, abating somewhat in January, during which month we are apt to have some frosty weather; February, March and April are pleasant, with occasional showers and a few hot days; in

The total number of letters, postal cards and newspapers delivered by the carriers for 1877, was 16,583,774-an increase of 1,082,813, equal to 7 per cent. A much larger num- ber of boxes are retained in the San Francisco Post Office than in Eastern cities, hence the postal delivery returns show a relatively smaller volume of packages handled by carriers.
