From Calarerds - The miners in
this vicinity have been very busy du-
ring the past few months in throwing
up dirt to be washed when the rain
will have set in. Large quantities are
thrown up at the base of Corral Hill,
as well as on each side of the road at
the foot of Stockton Hill. The flats
on either side of Wall and Tinson's
Gulch are also turned over, in doing
which some of the miners have " pick
ed up" enough to pay expenses. Bull
and Corral Flats are KIN own to be very
rich but owing to the impossibility of
obtaining water for washing purposes,
have been hitherto but 81 lightly worked.
We see that nearly every foot of earth
on these fats have been thrown into
large piles by the miners, in antic ipa-
tion, we suppose, of reaping rich
harvest when water will have bee in
trod uced here by the canal company.
Numerous piles of auriferous earth
have likewise been thrown up from
Steep Gulch, D;ckensen's Gulch and
Flat, and Volunteers Gulch, by old
settlers" who, knowing the erich
spots," feel confident of getting well
rewarded for their trouble. Since the
Mokelumne Hill Water Company
commenced operations, claims have
been staked off in every direction, from
the beds of the gulches to the tops of
the mountains, so that we may antici-
pate lively winter, whether it be a
wet one or not Chronicle.

BOGUS INTELLIGENCE OFTICE.-lhe
Sacramento Union says, that within the
last month the most rascally frauds have
been praeticed in that community by
two men named Keller and Hall, who
have occupied for the last few days an
office on Third, near Tho corner Of ]
street Upwards of sixty persons have
called upon Capt. White of the Police,
who have been swindled by these pre-
cious villains within the past few days.
1t appears that they have directed per-
sons calling upon them for situations, to
places and parties having no existence,
save in. their own brains. They have
robbed them in some instances Of their
last dollar for their rdludbte information,
which sends them on fruitless search
Of miles.
Up to Wednesday last, they had car
ried on their nefarious business with i'm
punity; but hearing that the hounds Of
Justice were on their trail, they sudden
ly decampcd towards Stockton. Capt.
White has given description of these
fellows, so that they may be easily re-
cognized. Hall is man about five feet
ten inches high, red hair, we'll dressed
and of gentlemanly appearance. kel-
ler is small man about S feet 4 inches
in height, of genteel address, and wore
moustache and goatee when last seen.
1t is earnestly to be hoped that these
mean and despicable rogues will close
their. infamous career, before they shall
have succeeded in any more attempts to
swindle the public.

swollen by the spring floods, and their
operations were retarded by a great
many natural inconvenience; but in
addition to these, they were continu-

lived in great numbers in their imme-
diate vicinity. They put up with
their threats until the Ist of July last,
when party of Indians, fifty or sixty
in number, came to their ranch and
ordered them to leave, threatening
that if they did not, they would return
in few days and murder them all.
