General Gaines had returned after making q

The United States mail steamship Illinois, whose
arrival at Norfolk announced on Saturday
having continued her voyage, arrived at New
York on Saturday. We have only room for the
following items of intelligence from California pa
pers she brings, which are to the 9Th of August.
From the San Francisco Post, September II.
correspondent from Indian Bar, Tuolumne
county, writes as follows: The compan on this
bar have completed their stupendous work, and
have quite drained one thousand yards of the river
The prospect is excellent They commenced on
the lower part of the bed yesterday; and last eve
ming, in a short time, with half dozen small rock
ers, took out $l05 80, which was the fret money
in the treasury, and gave life and spirit to the
boys that cannot be described, and only felt by
those who have been two years on this work, on
the success of which wives, children, friends and
the hope of seeing home-loved home--once de-
pended think it probable that they will be paid
tolerably well; but unless the whole bed yield
100000, which fear will hardly be realized, the
yield will disappoint u.s.
The miners doing very we'll in most cases. as
the river Is go low that they dig over ground
and are realizing from three to sixteen dollars per
day.
Our quartz men, myself one of the number, are
waiting for capitalists tocome on as we have lots
OF veins, but require the use of machinery. This
department of mining is destined to be the back
bone Of business in California. Our quartz veins
are rich and abundant, though thou5andth part
has not yet been discovered.
Fronrfhe San Francisco Union, august l5
Major Sweetzer called on yesterday, having
just come down from the city of rs, where the
Washington company is located He informs us
that the veins which that company are working
increase in richness daily, and that they prov
ing far more extensive than were at first supposed.
There has been opened new vein on the other
side of the Nevada range, about half mile from
the old claims. This vein is n continuation of the
one being worked. There have been four ad-
ditonal companies formed since the first vein was
opened, and Washington mountain presents an
appearance of activity unsurpassed by the famous
mines of Grass Valley and Carson's Creek

"ILLUsTRIoUs FoREIGNERs."-The other day we
gave an account of a singular piece of imposture
perpetrated in England by woman who styled
herself the Baroness Won Beck-an Hungarian
countess. The London Times seizes upon the cir
cuInstance as text for sarcastic homly on the
"natural tendency Of John Bull 'to fall upon his
knees before illustrious foregnors;" and we fancy
that the discourse is not wholly inapphcable to a
large class of our own countrymen. "What an Eng
lishman loves" the Times remarks ''is a tltle no
matter how acquired or how assumed"
''Let tall, hirsute man, in broken English, pour
forth lamentations over his countrys wrongs-let
him at the same time make il understood that he
is the victim Of the political troubles which agitate
his native lfhd-and he may have il all his own
way with the middle classes of English society
Pleasant little dinner parties are got up by Mrs
Ramsbottom, in order TO divert the melancholy
which is evidently wearing away the spirit of the
noble but unfortunate Humbugsky. Count Save
loi has just escaped from furthest Siberia and
made his way to Odessa upon velocipede; he, too,
is entitled to sympathy and respect Nor can the
calamities OF Tuttocchiomio, the Palermian mar
quis-the victim OF the events of lSfS-49-fail to
excite the tenderest emotions in the breasts of the
British fair. So throughout. The Polish no
beman may in reality be nothing but courier,
without place and without character Saveloi, a
professional pickpockct, and the Scilian broken
down yender of maccaroni-our good countrymen
do not care 10 look 80 closely into matters They
receive the iustrious strangers on their own de-
scripton, and pay them all the honors due to their
imaginary rank, with all the kecner zest that their
fortunes may for time be at their very apogee"
