For the Journal.

Messrs. Editors Your remarks in the
last Journal are more than realized in the
shape of mining in the neighborhood of
Steep Hollow and Green Horn
The most interesting diggings l have
heard of in California, are being worked
one mile and half above the mouth of
Steep Hollow. Seventeen tunnels have
already been run into apparently an in
exhaustible Hill, where the pay dirt has
proved to be twenty-five feet deep, and
no ''sieranagin' Those who work hard
make from 10 to zoos per day this is
strange, very strange, but it comes from
good authority. Beatty, (Of the Beatty
House in Grass Valley,) is putting up
store and hotel at the mouth OF Steep
Hollow on the strength of these new
diggings where he expects to take in
and accommodate the wearied miner,
or refined prospector without distinction
of party-Beatty is clever fellow.
1t is impossible for man to stretch
his Imagination SO far as to grasp what
may next be found. Shafts are being
sunk in every direction for the purpose
of determining where the Oro lies, and
very soon we may expect the most as
tonishing developments and more par
ticularly SO if the Franklin Mining Com
pany get their ditch done in time to
supply the miner with water, as most of
the ravines in short time will be per-
fectly dry. The ditch must be very
profitable to the stockholders, while it
will be immensely benifcial to miners.

CLIPPER SAIP CHALLENGE AGAIN IN
TROUBLE. By the following which we
copy from the Hong Kong Gazette, it ap-
pears that the clipper ship Challenge
has again got into difficulty.
The rumor regarding the clipper
ship Challenge has proved correct. Con-
sequent upon the harsh conduct of Capt.
Waterman, and his mate, Douglass, dur
ing the passage round Cape Horn, the
ship obtained such an ill name in San
Francisco that great difficulty was ex-
perienced in obtaining hands to bring
her across to China, and it was Only bv
payment of advances of two hundred
dollars apiece that forty men coald be
induced TO sign an agreement to abide
by the ship until she reached this port
or any port in China to which the acting
master (Land) might wish to go.
Five days before the Challenge anchor
ed outside, they were about $50 miles
from Lukong, between Ningpo and
Shanghae) when the men came aft and
told Capt Land that to 60 to any other
place than Hongkong they would not,
and insisted upon his compliance with
their request; failing which, they thrsa.

Miss Bowers ScHooL.-We had
the pleasure of short visit to this
school a few days since. Though its
number is small compared with what
it might be, judging from the number
of sprightly and blooming little girls,
and promising boys we daily see
around us, yet we do not think Miss
Bowers has any reason to complain Of
the success of her mission. Though
quite young, she is certainly prepos-
sessing in her appearance, and though
mild and gentle in her manners, treat
ing those under her charge with the
utmost kindness and respect, she ap-
pears to command their profound es-
TEEN and confidence, a characteristic
indispensable to successful teacher
The recitations, so far as we heard
them, indicated that the scholars were
not inattentive to their studies, and
that the assistance necessary for their
advancement had not been withheld
Whatever influences operated to bring
people to this distant land, we have
one advantage not usually possessed
by newly organized societies. Almost
simultaneously with the settlement of
our state, came numerous families,
who have settled in groups, affording
opportunities for bringing together a
sufficient number of children to form
a school, while we have wealth suffi.
cient, so soon as our government can
be duly organized, to sustain such in
stitutions to degree of success an
older state might be proud Of We
hope no one interested will fail to give
this subject the consideration it de :
serves.

tened to throw him overheard and bring
the ship here themselves.
Under such compulsion, and backed
only by his officers and the purser, eight
OF the forty men, by the way, did not
sign the ''round robin handed in) Capt
Land very prudently steered for thi.
place, although his destination was
Shanghae; and when outside, dispatched
a man from the pilot boat with letter
to his agents, Bush g. Co., Anthon g.
Coz who notified Commodore Aulick, BY
whom file Of marines was placed on
board the Challenge before her anchor
was well on the ground.
The sight of the bayonet appears to
have been sufficient to induce these
cravens 10 get the ship under weigh on
Saturday, and work her into berth
midway between the Susquehanna and
the Saratoga, on the opposite shore,
where she lies. a significant emblem of
the great American nation, and clearest
proof that the system of education prnc-
ticed in the American marine is wofully
defective.
Capt. Land is an old navigator in these
seas, one of those mild, Christian-like
men, whose bearing, if any thing could,
would tame savage. On the passage
across, Capt. Land says that he bore
more insult and annoyance than he has
ever been made to suffer before from
crew; he returned their i'll language,
however, simply with gentle reproof.
On Sundays he read such portions of
scripture to them as he thought would
affect their minds arguing and endea-
voring to instil pride al the thought of
being on board one of the finest speci-
mems of naval architecture that ever
crossed the ocean-but all to no effect
Directly the sails were tossed up on
Saturday 1--WE will not call them furled)
they again came aft and demanded per-
mission to go on shore. This being re-
fused, they gave way to more specimens
of what they would do if they could
One tall fellow We heard express the
wish that Capt Land was in San Fran
cisco again, instead of here, and the
rope should be speedily round his neck,
from which he would not then get clear
30 easily. The day before her arrival
the cook was robbed of some hundred
dollars. cases of drills and shoes were
broken open, and their contents dis
tributed.

RIO De LA PLArA-Letter received
by the D1ario of Valparaiso state that
Gen. Urquiza's army, assisted by regi-
ment of Brazilians, had totally defeated
Gen. Pacheco and the vanguard Of the
Dictator's forces at Sujan. The towns
of Santos Lugares and Palermo were
bombarded by the small craft on the
river, and the reserve of Rosas' army
compelled to evacuate them. at is pro-
bable," says the correspond mt of the
D'ar'o, "that by this time kosas has
either fled or been captured"
According to proclamation issued by
Urquisa, the "Grand Liberating Allied
Army" consists of 80, 149 men from the
provinces of Buenos Ayres, Entrerios,
Corrientes and the Oriental, besides two
brigades Of Brazilians, commanded by
the Marquis dc Souza, Il reserve of II, 900
men encamped ten leagues fro Buenos
Ayres, under the imperial general,
Count of Caxias, and 5000 then on their
march for the Paraguay. The naval
squadron on the river, commanded by
Admiral Grenveldt, consists of nine
steamers and four sloops of war of the
Brazilian navy and crowd of gun boats
and transports.
A most extraordinary robbery occurr-
ed at Buenos Ayres. A young man
named Villcgas, presented himself at
the Bank Of the State, with forged
order, in the handwriting of Rosas, for
100000 The counterfeit was so pei
feet that this immense sum of money
was unhesitatingly delivered to him,
and provided with forged passport, he
then attempted to embark, but was de-
tected and summarily condemned and
executed.
The Diarto says that Villegas was
educated for the bar, was young man
OF much promise and good qualities.
He had made campaign against Rosas,
under the command OF Gen. Lavclle,
but when that chief was driven into ex-
lie, he was compelled to share his fate
and supported the misery and privations
of his banishment with courage and ela-
walton.
1.-The knowledge we have" says the
editor of the Diario, of this unfortunate
young man, by whose side we have sat
on the benches of the University con-
vinces us that this robbery was commit
ted with no personal motive, but with n
political intention, and was probably ac-
tnated by bold and generous determine
ton. His character was resolute and
enterprising Alta.
