The Charlotte Island Discovery.
From Occasional Correspondent Of the Ne,D
York Courier and Enquir,r.


FROM an OccnsfOndi Correspondent OF the NfD
York Courier and Enqtiirtr.
SAs FRAscIsco. March 10, 1852.
A discovery has lately been made Of several new
quartz leads on Queen Charlotte's Island, which
prove to be immensely rich. Gold has been know
to exist on The island for some time, but the pre-
else locality was never known until il disco
vcrcd by the British schooner Una, belop ging to
the Hudson Bay Company. She sent her boat on
shore for wood. The boats crew landed ut the
foot OF large quarts lead, which they traced
back about three quarters Of mile from the
beach. The earth at the foot of the lead attracted
the attention Of come Of the party, who had been
working in the California mines; they washed out
pan OF it and found 1t very rich, yielding
nearly sixty doors. During this operation one
of the men knocked Oft piece Of quartz with
his axe, and laid bare a large vein of gold.
Finding two natural orcviccs in the rock, they
charged these with gunpowder and blew them
oil. The effects were amazing. In less than
hour they occurred $4,000 worth Of gold and
quartz intermixed, and might have secured a much
larger amount bot for the imprudence Of the cap
tain, who, in his cagerness TO some Of tho
large pieces, gave the lndans, who, attracted by
the noiso of the blasts had collected about them to
the number of two thousand or more, a silver dol
lar Tor each large piece of gold. The Indians, al
though ignorant of the value of the pold were &C.
customcd TO the use Of silver from trnding with the
Hudson Bay Company. After receiving n few
dollars, they attacked the white men, and drove
them off to their vessel which being small and
they only mastering twenty-five in number were
unable TO resist, and were obliged 10 get under
weigh and leave the hsrbor. In proceeding to Vic
toria for assistance they were wrecked near Cape
Flsttery, and remained for two months prisoners
to the Indians, from whence they were rescued by
the schooner Susan Stuges and were carried with
the gold TO Olympia Several vessels fitted out inn
mediately from Victoria, Olympia, and Portland,

YAcHTING.-A letter has been received from Eng
land, by Commodore Stevens, from n member OF
the Royal Western Yacht Club, enclosing an invi-
tation from Mr.. Mare to the Commodore OF the New
York Yacht Club, or any other parties in America
to compete, at Cowes, with yacht he (Mr. Mare)
would construct for the purpose. Mr.. Stevens re-
plies TO this challenge, that at present he has nc
intention Of visiting England, and declines Mr.
Mares invitation He adds:
"You have the America in your waters, and when
Mr.. Mare builds yacht Of superior speed, and with
comforts and accommodations (but which, from
his apparent estimate of them, presume be has not
seen) eIcelling those of the America, shall be
most happy TO give him Trial for tho sum he men
tons, whenever he will do the favor of return
ing the visit ] bad the honor Of paying the RoyR
Yacht Squadron at Cowcs. should fear the repe
tition of visit unreturned might be deemed an in
trusion, or want Of etiquette"
Mr.. Stevens does not appear to regard il as con-
sistent with the rules Of etiquette TO beat Mr.. Bull
in his own waters twice in succession.
