It takes a great deal of money to make a man rich, but it don't take but little virlew, The pursuit for information is sometimes attended with difficulties, even in San Francisco. One inquirer, who applied to tbe Chronicle for information as to where Cain obtained his wife, is cruelly rebuffed, the only reply vouchsafed him being this: — Upon any sulject of a public nature we never refuse to throw the desired light. But tbis is altogether a different thing. It is a family matter with which wo do not care to meddle. Cain died some time before many of us were born, and such idle curiosity regarding the family affairs of a deceased person we regard aa reprehensible, and calculated to violate the sanctities of domestic life. For these reasons, and because we do uot wish to injure the feelings of tho relatives of the deceased, we decline to answer the question.
