mistakable evidences of permanency, In
growth and rapid advancement, unsurpassed
by that of any other portion of California

but at that time his stay was Of short dura-

RICH DIGGINGs AT FIDDLE-TowN.-Th Sac
ramento Union learns by citizens Of Fiddle
town, that unusually rich diggings have been
struck within the past week on Arkansas fat,
which lies short distance South of the town.
The gold is coarse and found about twenty
feet below the surface, in a kind Of cement,
which seems to be filled with it. Some months
since, near the same place, this same lead was
struck by party Of Frenchmen, in which
they washed out as high as five hundred dol
lars to the pan. Other fats i'll the neighbor-
hood pay nearly as well.

~ A cotemporary imagines that gold
will go on increasing until it becomes less
valuable than old iron. In less than twenty
years he expects to see ten-penny nails take
the place Of breastpins, while the only jew
el that fashionable lady will tolerate, will
consist Of pewter earrings and copper-plated
head bands. Gold in his opinion, is bound to
be drug, and in a century from now, will
only be used for coal-scuttles and manure

IMPROVEMENTS IN GRASS VALLEY.

IMPROVEMENTS IN GRASS VALLEY.
The spirit of our Grass Valley citizens is
doubtless of the progressive order, as the late
improvements which have been going On
among us, will readily show; for separate
and apart from our improved Quartz mills
and our additional saw and planning mills,
which have recently been erected we have a
new and handsome Church-a new house in
which is the Post Office, and the Epicurean
Saloon. This last, by the way, we consider
after the most approved style. Together
with these, we have very neat little frame.
on Main ST., now occupied as a Jewellers shop.
Nearly opposite, is an enlargement and i'm
provement in building which is to be occu-
pied conformity as a Hotel and Grocery store.
A little lower down on Main st, are several
frame buildings in course of erection, one or
two of which, when completed, will pass as
quite respectable buildings SO much for The
present;; we however anticipate better things
than this for the future Several of our en-
terprising merchants have informed US that
it is then intention through the course Of the
coming winter and spring, to put up fire
pEoef brick buildings, in order, more effectu-
ally, to secure Themselves against the chances
f fire. The Grass Valleyans are arousing

DRIFT SAND.-The CGlauerGs Chronicle
says:-We heard a very singular circumstance
related this week. that the common light sand,
washed down the river from day to day, is
richly loaded with fine gold. An experiment
was made last week, near Winters Bar, the
sand thrown into sluice, and in less than a
day over $275 were thus obtained. This be-
coming known, attention was directed to it,
and in every case with the most substantial
proofs in the correctness of the ruInor.

MINING NEws-The reports from different
portions Of our mining districts are highly ia
vorable. From the Placer diggings, we are
informed that D. Fl. Thompson & Co., are av-
eraging from twelve to eighteen hundred dol
lars weekly.
We were invited on Tuesday last, to visit
the diggings of Messrs. Hughs & Ragan, on
Pike Flat. Incomplying with their polite in
yitation, we were well gratified with the un-
IDistakeable richness of their claim, and iudg-
ing from the golden specimen which we saw
panned out, we do not hesitate in saying that
this company will shortly realize their for
tunes.
The Quartz Mills are generally doing
handsome business The Massachusetts, Hill
Mining Company, are realizing splendid re-
muneration for their labors they furnished
Us With a specimen from their lead, which is
as rich and beautiful as anything of the kind
which we have ever seen. The Helvetia Com

hours crushing, they have received ten hun
dred and three dollars. The Empire Compa-

ports. Out of seventy -four tons of rock, in
three days crushing, they have realized the
sum of $6,288 and 25 cts.

PRETTY INCIDENT.

What is more noble in human nature thar
true and real affection.
The Boston Journal says
'.We heard very pretty incident the 9th
er day, which we cannot help relating. A
young lady from the South it seems, WasI
wooed and won by youthful physician,
living in California. When the engagement
was made the doctor was rich, having been
very successful at San Francisco. 1t had not
existed six months, however, when, by an un-
fortunate investment he lost his entire cheap"
This event came upon him, it should be add
ed, just as he was making ready to claim his
bride. What does he do?-Why, like an hon
orable and chivalrOus young fellow, as he is,
he sits down and writes the lady every par
ticular Of the unhappy turn which had taken
place IN his fortunes, assuring her, that if
the fact produced any change in her feeling
towards him, she is released from every pro-
mise he had made him. And what does the
dear, good girl do? Why, she takes lump
of pure gold which her lover had sent to her,
when in prosperity, as keepsake, and bavingV
it manufacturedintOa airing, forwards it to him
with the following bible inscription engraved
in distinct characters on the inside -
"Entreat me not to leave thee or to return
from following after thee ; for whittier thou
goest will I go, and where thou lodgest VIII
[ lodge thy people and thy God shall be my
people and my God; where thou diest will [
die, and there will be buried; the Lord do
so to me, and more also, if aught but death
part thee and me-"
The lover idolized his sweetheart more than
ever when he received this precious evidence
Of her devotion to him, both in storm and
sunshine. We may add that fortune again
soon smiled upon the young physician, and
that he subsequently returned to the North
to wed the sweet girl he loved, and who low
ed him with such an undying affection. Nay,
more, the happy bride and bridegroom pas
sed through our city, not long since, on their
way to the home Of the latter in the golden
State. Reader. this is all true Young Ia
dies who read the Bible as closely as the he
roine of our incident seems to have done, are
pretty sure to make good sweethearts, and
better wives.
