QuARTz-A correspondent of the Cou-

2lst,. has the following:
"After two years experience in tho
mines, | only begin to appreciate the
vast mineral resources of the country
A man stands chance to be called
an enthusiast if he tells of what actual-
y exists. Since the era Of quartz min
ing began, a field for the profitable in
vestmcnt of capital has opened unparal-
leled in the history of man. 1t is all
most beyond comprehension, and none
can properly appreciate it till they see
It, These leads have been explored
from Sonora to Oregon, and the amount
OF machinery which will be REQUIRED to
work them cannet be estimated. have
passed over three hundred miles of the
country, and have seen specimens of rock
which were brought from po;nts n tbou.
sand miles from each other some from
the desert east of the Sierra, some from
Sonora, others from Oregon exhibit
ing incontestable evidence of their rich.
ness in the precious metals. Immense
veins exist in this vicinity, visible for
miles in length, varying from two to
fourteen feet in thickness, and running.

Query! How long would 1t take for
a six-horse power engine to work one of
these leads out
The last mans great-grandchild would
have grey hairs before an hundred horse

careful and wise rich men still doubt
on IN the belief that California is all

soon, when they of little faith will be
compelled to believe that a part of that

VALLEJO BALL.-We copy the follow
ing account of the Vallejo Ball from the
editorial correspondence of the Un,on
"A birds eye glance at the party. dis.
closed the fact that there were sixteen
ladies and one hundred and firty gentle
men present. Among the former. were
but two of the fair representatives OF
of Sacramento, and not more than five
or six of the San Francisco ladies. The
remainder were from the region round
about Vallejo and Benicia The politi-
cal world was very largely represented
Owing to the great scarcity of obtain
ing partners. many of the political char
acters adjourned to the lobbles and
there, surrounded by champagne and
smoke, discussed the affairs of State
Representatives and Senators elect,
were particularly eloquent upon the
subject of the Capital, and the probable
acton of the Governor on the Superin-
tendent's Report.
Vallejo might have had some friends

OF the Capitol but their voices were
drowned amid the roar of anathamas
hurled upon the place by those mem.

LATER FROM CHINA BY the ar.
rival, to-day, Of the Swedish bark
Jackin from Hong Kong, we have files
of papers to the 10th of October. The
Jackin brought over one hundred
Cinnamon.
The Hong Kong Register of the
l4th October, says that the p. and O.
Co S steamer Canton, which met with
so much damage from collision with
sunken rock in the passage leading
from Cumsingmoon into the river, in
january last, has had, after many
drawbacks and difficulties, all the ne
cessary repairs made upon her hull
and machinery, and has been refitted
for service.
The same paper says that at an ex~
animation held lately in Canton for
the purpose Of awarding Literary de.
grees, no less than eight thousand can
dldates entered their appearance
From the crowded state of the Hall,
the heat, or other causes, it is said
eight died during or shortly after the
meeting.
1t was reported at Fu-chow, that
there had been a conspiracy in the
Imperial family, to remove the Empc-
ror, and that his life was in danger.
Official notice is given in the Straits
Times of September 30, that Light
House has been erected on Pedro
Branca, a rock off the eastern entrance
to the Straits of Singapore.
The criminal sessions of the Su.
preme Court, commenced at Hong
Kong on the 10Th The calendar
numbered fourteen cases
A fire broke out in Canton, on the
night of the Sth October, which de-
stroyed about 200 houses, and a large
quantity of woollen and cotton goods
The fire occurred outside of the walls,
in the part of the city occupied by for
eigners. AT one time the factories
were in imminent danger.
The 10th government sale of opium
was held at Calcutta, on the 1st Sept,
when $3.50 chests of Patna, and 500
chests of Benores were sold.-Ptcay-
