In regard to gold news, we take the
following from the Alta CALIFORNIA;:
Twen,y.seven miles beyond the Trims
ity there is beach, several miles in
extent, and bounded by high buff
The sands of this beach are mixed with
gold 10 an extent almost beyond belief.
The sand is oftwo kinds-a fine black
sand and grey sand. The grey sand
can be separated very easily from the
black sand, and this seems TO be q dc.
sirable object. The gold is mixed with
the black sand in proportions of from
ten cents to ten dollars the Pound. At
times when the surf is high, the gold is
not easily discovered, but in the spring
oflhe year, after succession of Gains,
the entire beach is covered with bright
and yellow gold. Mr.. Collins, the Sec
rotary of the Pacific Mining Company,
measured peck Of gold sand, and est
mates it will yield TO each member of
the company the snug little sum OF
S43,OOO,OOO, and this estimate is form
cd upon q calculation that the sand holds
out to be ene.tenth as rich as observa.
ton warrants them in supposing.
The Pacific Mining company Che
Adventures Of the Chesapeake have
banded themselves together under this
title) found some nineteen men at these
diggings. The men had no disposition
to dig, for the gold was all ready for
them whenever they felt disposed TO
take it. Besides, such is the character
of the roads that they could not take
: more than rs TO 100 pounds apiece, an
amount too trfiing for consideration.
They had erected o comfortable log
cabin, and designed watching the claim
ill spring, and then take ship load Of
the gold, and travel TO some country
where the metal was not SO abundant
Mr.. Collins saw man who had accu.
mulated fifty thousand pounds, or fifty
thousand tons, he did not recolecl
which--of the richest kind of black
sand.
Gen. Wilson says that thousands Of
men cannot exhaust the gold in thou
sands of years, and he gives all who
doubt his statements the liberty oil

BENTON-THE PRESIDENCY
The 81. Louis Union says:

When .almos. every other member Of
Congress thought himself available, still the
time had not arrived for Benton, an moons
prehensble man indeed, 10 the hack poll,
licans OF his day. But it has at least been
assumed, on all hands among them, that
this day has now come, 10 which he has
been looking forward for so many years.
But not less 10 the establishment than to the
grief and disappointment Of ourselves and
the great mass Of the people Of the union, he
still refuses, we learn. 10 be candidate for
the Presidency, and declares bis resolulio
10 be unslterabe. However his friends and
his party may deplore this resolution, and
feel themselves, for moment, paralysed for
the want Of him in the great struggle of '52,
they cannot but allow the salutafy influence
Of such an example Of moderation. Men OF
all parties will, one day, il not now. thank
him for having, by such an act, rebuksd the
morbid appetite for public station which
pervades the nation; for having given es.-
son, so much needed at this moment, when
every species OF legislation hinges upon the
Presidency, which will recall nobler objects
10 The minds OF those who are capable OF ele.
waited thoughts.
The same paper speaking Of the
election of Senator, quotes from.a letter
from Benton, in which he says, II see
nothing but good in oil this, and take
my part Of it most willingly" And it
goes on TO say in speaking of Benton:
He had but TO will it 10 be returned 10 the
seat he has filled for thirty years. He had but
10 compromise, ever so slightly, and offer
terms TO the small party who hold the bal
ance OF power in the General Assembly, 10
have healed all their discussions with him.
But he felt, as we all feel, that 10 retain that
faction in the democracy and countenancs
them es leaders among uS-as men entitled
to The confidence Of the people. He was
unwilling therefore, 10 secure a position for
himself at the expense oil The democracy, and
al the cost Of continuing the power oil the
Government in the hands OF the federal party
TO which it has been brought by the cha1ac.
ter, or rather wan! Of character, Of those who
have worked themselves up 10 the high po
silions in the democratic ranks. 1t was ne.
cessary, he writes, to purify the party. TO
drire the traders into the bosom Of he whigs
10 whom they belong.
There are many that believe Benton
could have been elected, had he wiled
il, and compromised q little. We are
rejoiced at his Roman Firmness, in this
instance, at least.

NV DEAR FRIEND: The recent letters Of
Mr.. Geyer TO Brosdhead and TO Crockett are
perhaps, the very richest rewards that our
Traitors in Howard, Boon sand Randolph
counties could have received for their treach>

Was ever anything more perfectly illus

The Fox by accident fell into the we'll, and
for the lie Of him could not get out, the
Goat who happened 10 be,browsing hard BY
came TO the mouth Of the well and peeping
down inquired Of the Fox il that were good
water! the Fox taking an idea at once, told
the Goat that the water was so delightful
that it almost took his life 10 drink it. The
Goat without further scruples jumped down,
and the Fox Immediately taking The Goats
horns for starting point, made his landing
safely on The top.
Mr.. Geyer nshis letter to Mr.. Allen Of
ST. Charles, written on the eve Of the cleo.
ton for U. S. Senator, says in effect that
this Southern doctrine which denies to the
General government the right TO do as she
pleases with her own soil, is the most rich
and delightful Selfpressruing principle in all
civil governments Of the earth, and he coult
not say that he would not be ready 10 fgh

MISSOURI AND THE UNION.

In the House of Representatives, on
the 22d ult., Mr.. Crockett offered the
following resolutions, which were
adopted by large majority:
Resolved, LIST. That in the opinion oil
this House the practice Of converting such
bodies as the late Nashville convention is
dangerous in its tendencies, calculated to
foster sectional ealousies and 10 weaken the
bonds OF the Union. The people Of Mis-.
souri, will cooperate with no organized
body either North or South the apparent
object OF which may be 10 foment National
dscord, 10 ALLEVIATE one portion OF the con-
federacy from another, or 10 diminish the
veneralion OF The people for The Union Of the
Union OF the States.
Cd. That this House emphalically denies
the doctrine Of secession, as maintained by
some southern statesmen, and dissents fro m
the resolutions OF the Nashville convention,
as enclosed 10 his Excellsncy, the Governor,
by the Hon. Charles J. Nc Donald, OF Geor.
sia, and the Governor is respectfully reques

LEGIsLATURE.-The Legislature ad,

Clerks from taxation; no "nigger reso

were passed; the salary of Supreme
Judges was increased; the general in.

Congressional Districts, nor in the
lime of the general election.
