MINING fsTELLIG EScE.

We have cheering intelligence TO send by this
steamer, in respect TO both the placer washings
and the quartz mines around about this noun.
tain city. In addition 10 what may be found in
another column, we can state with the fullest as
snrance that never were the miners more en-.
coursged than now, and never was there a more
reasonable prospect Of rich harvest for their
labors. Not that every company or every indi.
didual Is actually washing out pounds Of gold
weekly. Many are scarcely obtaining enough to
pay their board bills, and yet they are well
pleased, and feel as though they were fast hccu-
mulating fortunes. These are scattered ali
along the dry guches and ravines, throwing up
the dirt which they have tried sufficiently 10
know that II is rich When the rims come, or
the water is led alorg from The rivers BY the
extensive water works constructed for this
purpose during the present season, the miners
will have nothing TO do but to wash out and
pocket the gold. The drains and tail bitches
are now being made, the rocks removed which
cover up The precous metal, aud the earth thrown
up to mellow in the sun and air, and thua get
ready for an easy washing. Piles OF dirt have
thus been thrown up which could not be bought
for hundreds, we might say thousands Of dollars
all the work Of two or three short months.
In some places also the hill-s;des are being
dug off, where they are connected with lends in
the mountains, from which, durrg-the revolu-
ton Of centuries, more or less gold had been
gradually sliding down along with the earth,
loosened by successive rains and SHOWS. At
Jamestown this is especially the case.
The vast plain, extending from Sbaw's Flat
northward, is also being dug, all over its sur.
face, and carted away. There is no telling how
rapidly fortunes would be accumulated, IL q
constantly running stream Of water were pre-
sent, 50 that carts, horses, and oil the concomi
tant troubles could be dispensed with.
On Woods creek there are many companies,
all doing exceedingly well. About two weeks
ago, we visited the claim Of the Fort Washing
ton company, one mile above Sonora. They
said they bad been working ia this same place
for about year, having originally purchased
the claim for $500. During a portion Of the
time they had been engaged 10 the laborious
work Of digging tong ditch, nearly two hun
dre5 yards long, by from twelve to twenty five
feet deep. Their luck" has been variable, but
on the whole very good. Sometimes, for two
months or more, they did well every day.
Then, again, Tor few weeks, the tide seemed
TO turn. We saw one Of the large Jumps taken
out by them, weighing six pounds ten and three
quarter ounces, Many smaller pieces we're also

that there are other, and yet greater evils IN
store for them, unless they use the means to
vert them.
BY the very Constitution of our government,
population is the great element OF Pohtlcal
power. The united, determined and unwaver'
ing policy of the Southern States ought TO be
directed towards the regaining OF their lost
power. And as most important step towards
It's attentainment we consider the establishment
IF direct trade between our Southern ports
and Europe Wherever there is commerce
there is wealth and population. The growth OF
towns has great effect upon the prosperity Of
the adjacent country. Agriculture and com
merce act and react favor,bly upon each other
producing the most marked effects Under the
influence Of such trade why might not the
South have its New York and Philadelphia!
We have good potts, why not strengthen our
selves by the use Of those means which nature
has placed within our power? These are ques-
toT.s Of importence that addressed more
particularly to the mercantile public. We are
glad that the attention of the people of the
South is being directed towards this subject.
Already has convention been held in Rich
mond with view 10 the establishment OF a
direct trade with Europe, and measures are on
foot to secure that important object But we
do not propose at this time to enter upon the
consideration of Sd important and extensive a
subject as direct trade between the South and
Europe Time and space would fail US, We
conclude, therefore, by suggesting to the people
of our section and to the people of North Caro-
lima generally the serious consideration OF the
suhinct ,.

The Cotton Planters Convention nj Macon.
Macon, CA, OctobeI


The Southern Cotton Planters Convention
has been in session here at intervals for several
days, but very little important bushes has been
transacted until to-day. The convention con-
-ists of alb ,ut three hundred delegates, Of whom
tw } hundred are from Georgia, representing less
than one.half Of the counties sixty eight from
Alabama. presenting about one-qnsrter Of the
counties nineteen from Florida, representing
FIVE counties and one or two delegates from
each Of several other Southern States. Mr..
Baylor, our consul at Amsterdam, delivered an
address, urging the convention to Fdopt meas
ures for establishing direct trade between the
South and the continent Of Europe. 10 the
course Of his remarks, he presented overtures
from merchants in Amsterdam and Rotterdam,
proposing 10 CT. operate with the merchants Of
the Southern States in accomplishing this oh
ject The convention unanimously passed reso-
lutions approving of the project and strongly
recommending the shipment, as early as gracti
cable, of at least portion Of the cotton crop
by direct transportation.
The main business Of the convention was to
devise means for providing against The depres
sion and fluctuations of the prices OF cotton.
There was considerable conflict Of orinion con.
corning the practicahiiity of accomplishing this
result, and various plans for providing remedy
were presented. ne suDJect was Hndhy fe-
ferrcd 10 a committee Of twenty-one, who could
not agree upon anything definite.
A resolution providing that a central com
mittee should be established. 70 which all plant
ers should make returns of the cotton housed
by the middle Of January; and further, that be.
fore the first of May not more than two-thirds
Of the crop should be sold, and that at not 'ess
than eight cents per pound, and that the third
remaining thereafter should be sold at such
time as might be recommended by the commit.
tee, was, after protracted debate, rejected;
forty three voting in the affirmative, to forty.
eight in the negative.
A minority report was presented by the CON-
mittee favoring the noted Florida scheme for
cotton planters association, 10 organize with
a capital Of S20,0O0O0o, TO erect warehouse,
store the cotton, and control the prices. This
was violently opposed in the convention.

A furious battle had occurred between the

Various reports were in circulation relative 10
the conduct Of the Spanish authorities towards

ton. II was said that he had been imprisoned
and tried on the charge Of connection with the
Lopez expedition, and had been sentenced, in
common with the Lopez prisoners, TO labor in
the Spanish mines.
II is also charged that the American consul,
Mr.. Owen, had manifested the same indifference
with regard TO Mr.. Tbrasher as he had eyirced
