NIAGARA FALLs!-The same wonder Of
wonders! Rolling, Whrling, trembling,
laundering as ever! This is about the
twentieth time have stood awe struck and
conlounded in view Of this Tremendous cas-
cade of roaring waters! But my feelings Of
profound admiration and wonder, instead of
decreasing by familiarity with these sublime
scenes, only deepen and widen upon every
approach. There is now, however, a new at
traction al the Falls the Suspension Bridge.
This magnificent work Of art will appear the
more grand, from its proximity to the greats

and the terrible gulf below! The bridge
will be $50 feet in length 1t will be % feet
wide, will have one tract for the cars, two
sidewalks, and Two roads for carriages.
There are two towers of solid stone, one
on each bank, 6S feet IN height and ID feet
square at the bottom. From these towers Is
cables wilkbe suspended, each cable made Of
600 No. 10 wires, firmly secured at each end
in solid rock The bridge will be capable ),
when done, Of sustaining 900 tons in the
centre. The estimated cost is not Far from
$lS0,000. The work is now slowly pro
gresslng. A kite was lei loose, which took
across the immense gulf a small cord, to this
was fastened a small rope, to this cable,
aud thus we're the cables drawn across and
secured. To one of these cables there is

The following items in relation 10 the South
ern mines, are cleaned oy the N. Y. Tribune
from the Stockton Times, received by the
late arrival:
Several recent and important discoveries
have been made on the Mokelumne. Out
of one hole three men in two days took out
the sum of $4,000 Some large Jumps have
been found, and nearly every man is making
an ounce day. ...s...r
A large emigration is setting toward Cal
averas mines, among whom are many from
the northern mines. Near San Antonia a
new placer has been found, and her miners
are making TWO ounces per day.
Murphy's new diggngs, on the Sanislaus,
are yielding we'll. Allpersons vino work are
making fair average wages
Seven or eight miles above the town of
Sonoman another fresh discovery is recorded.
Hundreds ar aocking to the spot. Indeed,
the whole country lying between the SIAN
islaus and Touumne rivers is rich in goldon
treasure. This was abundanlly proved last
season.
Recently, in the Mariposa country, lump
weighing seven pounds was found just below
the suffice Of the ground.
These evidences of the prosperity Of those
who have embarked their interests in this
auriferous region are truly gratifying, not
merely as the evidence Of their own good
fortune, but as indicative of the vast benefits
that must flow therofrom to San Francisco.
Three men, in the space of two weeks,
took out $4,000 from one hole, Mt the new
diggngs, four miles above Sonora, beside
one lump weighing fire pounds.
MoRE LUMps.-The following extract from
letter just received from a gentleman in
Stockton, bears very strong presumption
that there are a few more Jumps Of the same
kind left for the enterprsing. The South
ern mines are looming up, and no one need be
asionshed 10 find them yielding the most a.
bundnnty of any placers during the coming
summer and fall
III learn but this moment from gentleman
Just from the Sonoranian Camp, that an A
Imercan dug another twenty>'hree pound
piece of gold there two days since. 1t con-
tained between three and four pounds o.
quartz.
81 have seen to-day several very large pie
ces ofquartz and gold, one weighing upward
Of forty pounds. The gold appears in il in
veins, the most beautiful nave ever seen.

HEAVY ROBBERY OF WATCHES AND JEW

Mr.. H Richardson, in that city, was entered
on Friday night last, and watches, breast
pins, rings, and other valuables TO the amount
of about $4,000. stolen therefrom. Entrance
was effected through an unoccupied house ad-
joining.
Mr.. Richardson and his clerk had been en-
gagged during the day in taking an account OF
stock. The store was closed at o'clock, and
the young man left it;.t about half past eight
to get his supper. He returned at about halt
past nine and the robbery had been compile
ted.
Between eighty and ninety gold watches oil
different descriptions were taken. Several
valuable diamond rings and breast-pins, and
a variety of other articles. The thieves ap-
pear to have passed out through back al
