A new discovery of gold has been
made in Califarnia. Ii is found in a spe.
cies of quartz scarcely visible to the ma
ked eye, but SO rich in deposit as to
yield about SO of ore to single pound
of quartz. This quartz abounds in i'm
mense veins, and according to the est-
mate of II. Butler King, and Mr.. Wright,
M. G. elect of California, will average
from one to two dollars per pound. -
These gentlemen have made extensive
exploration TO ascertain these facts, and
Mr.. Wright will. by the next Steamer,
be the bearer of number of fair average
specimens of the quartz TO Washington.
In Georgia, the yield of gold from SIM
liar quartz is about one dollar to 100
pounds, and is accounted profitable at
that. What wealth then, must lie in
the quartz veins of California, yielding
50 to the pound.

Wabash and Erie canal from Lafayette

State, wherever vacant lands could be
found, some probably one hundred miles
from their canal, and their canal fund
could only enter those lands. Ours is
not similar case; all our lands are with
in five miles of the work, up to the forks,
and will be entered just as fast as the
work would progress. So this objec-
ton could not reach us. have spun

The Special Message

OF Gen. Taylor in answer TO the res
olu.ion of Mr.. Yenable Qocofoco) of the
House, was poser to the lccofocos in
Congress. They have been for some
time charging tbs President with having
influenced the Callfornians in their course
on The Slavery question. In their eager
ness to attack the administration, with
something like show Of success, they
concocted aud brought forth this resolu-
ton at the same time in both branches of
Congress. But what was their conster-
nation and confusion 10 find that the
President had given express orders to
Mr.. King, our special agent, and other
officers and func;ionaries in California,
not to attempt to influence the people at
all, in relation to their movements-mere-
ly TO inform them that the President
would be pleased to see them formed in
TO State government--bu that in franz
ing their Constitution, regulating their
domestic institutions, they were to be
left free and uninfluenced, to act of their
own accord and free choice.
The President says he did not disturb
the arrangements of his predecessor,
(Mr. Polk, wko sent certain Gen. Ri
ley there TO arrange matters; and called
Conventions, &c. Now, if the Locos
attempt to blame Gen. Taylor they will
by so doing pass the same censure on
his predecessor. This they have seen
since the receipt of the message, and are
completely foored--caught in their own
trap. They now begin TO realize the
truth of what the Presidents friends
have always said, that he was well quail
fled TO perform the duties of the Exec
ntive chair;-and also that he never pla-
ces himself in position, in civil or mil
itary tactics, where he will have to sur
render. Old lack never surrenders.

TIE Improvement.

We understand that few persons in
our midst are fearful that if the Plank
Road is undertaken il will injure the riv-
er improvement. by drawing off the at.
tention Of the people from that work
This is, indeed "s,raining at a gnat and
swallowing a camel" The means to
improve the river is not advanced by the
people, not one dollar comes from them.
The appropriation is from Congress, and
if the Board do their duty the improve
meht must 60 on and be completed
The road is to be built by the money oil
the stockholders, not by the money paid
for the river lands. How, then, is it to
retard, or injure that work one iota, we
confess we are at loss to see. These
objections are receiving some aid and
comfort fom those who seem TO fear
that the River Improvement will "be-
come soli!ude!"

SENATE-After some undressing bu
siness the Senate resumed the considera-
tion of Clay's resolutions. Motion OF
Mr.. Mangum the ladies were admitted;
every corner was crowded almost TO
suffocation, and intense interest through
out.
In Mr.. Clay's speech relative to the
institution of slavery in the federal dis
lrict, he commended it could not be abol-
ished here in good faith without the con-
diiions named in his resolutions with
those considerations, the prohibition of
the slave trade in the district which he
proposed, involve concession by neither
section of the Union. All admitted the
right of the States TO prohibit the slave
trade within their borders, and the right
had been extended by southern States,
Kentucky along with others. Then up
on this point, both sections might and
ought 10 take common cause in regard
10 recapture of fugitive slaves, He
would go with him who went The Earth.
est; he held that every man in the com
muniiy was bound to assist in the arrest
of fugitives from labor. He fell that
the south had great cause of complaint
on this subject, considered il the duty of
Congress to pass laws regulating this
matter. After some brief allusion to his
last resolution Mr.. Clay proceeded with
Des Moines courier. ([Ottumwa] Iowa) 1848-1854, 1850-02-15
Mr.. wcbster's Resolution.

Mr.. Webster's Resolution, introduced
into the Senate recently, proposes to
give to every male citizen of the United
States, or foreigner, who has declared his
intentions to become citizen, of the
age of 81 years and upwards, 100 acres
of the public lands, who will enter on
and cultivate it for three years. In case
OF his death it is to revert 10 his family
or his legal heirs. He cannot deed it a.
way during that time, but must hold it
for his own use. When we take into
consideration the hardships and dangers
through which the settlers in a new
country have 10 pass, the comforts and
enjoyments they abandon to improve a
comparatively wilderness country, we
think it no more than right and just in
the General Government to donate a
home to actual settlers. This proposition
seems to be gaining friends in Congress,
and we hope it will become law.
