WEAVERYILLE. ADJ

WEAvERvILLE, April 5, 1852
EDITORS SHASTA COURIER ;-GENTLEMEN,-
So many worthy communications from this place
have already made their appearance in the col
umns of your thriving little sheet, that l scarce
ly dare attempt to seek an introduction to them
with such feeble chance of being admitted to
your good graces, as my poor talent as cores
pondent l fear will occasion. However, be-
lieving you gentlemen of considerate and in
dulgent character, will make the experiment.
Our little town is rapidly recovering from the
heavy blow upon its prosperity, recently sus-
tanned by the conflagration, and in few weeks
the burned district will be entirely rebuilt. l
think even in better shape than before. The
natural location of Weaverville is an excellent
one, and the exercise of a little more and
taste i'll building it up, will place it in point OF
appearance second to no other mining town
ia the State. Indeed, it now boasts of some
very fine specimens in the building line.
During the past week great many gold dis
coveries of the most encouraging character have
been made, about four miles from here, in por-
ton of country of large extent. and commanded
by the largest canal in the State, that of the
Trinity County Water Mining and Milling Com
pany, which is three hundred feet above
these new diggings. 1t is said by those who are
experienced Ill IHeSe lnatlefS, that IneTe ID
ground enough to employ five thousand miners
for the next ten years, and all the water brought
by this canal. From five cents to fifty cents
prospects to the pan have been made curing the
last three or four days--ihe average yield being
about eight cents to the pan. Large parties are
daily resorting TO the new diggings as they are
now termed, TO test the validity of these almost
incredible discoveries; but they have been made
and there is no g pricking" it out The I. c.
W. M. M. Company commenced yesterday morn
ing to construct branch race from their canal,
which though not quite completed, is already
nearly full of water received through the various
small streams intersecting it. exclusive of the
main one, Rush Creek, to these new diggings
the construction of which learn from the Su
perintendent of the work, VIM. G.. Young, ESQ.,,
will occupy the longest period, not more than
week. AT the expiration OF that time we may
expect to behold this new section of gold couil-
try, which promises SO much OF renown to our
place and prosperity to its community, album
dainty supplied with water and thickly settled
by the mining class, who will have received ia
this important acquisition of new gold territory,
reward for their persevering toll that is richly
merited.
AS bright and promising as the past has been
in these prospects, Weaver has the assurance of
still more glorious future, and population OF
ten thousand may be safely calculated upon
within another twelve month. PocANTIco.

Religious Interests i'm California.

We extract the following from interesting
article under the above head, in the Pacific
Banner
In San Francisco there are two Baptist, two
Presbyterian, two Episcopalian, four Methodist,
one Congregational, one Dutch Reform, one Uni
tartan, two Roman Catholic, and one Sweden
borgian, places of worship open on Sabbath for
their regular exercises. These societies are
nearly all furnished with pastors and leaders,
who are able as scholars, eloquent as preachers,
and faithful as pastors men who would make
their mark and impress upon the mind OF any
public.
In Sacramento City, the second city In point
of importance, we have one Congregational, two
Methodist one Baptist, one Roman Catholic and
one colored church. These churches are usual
ly well attended by intelligent audiences, who
duly appreciate the exercises and profit by their
teachings.
In Benicia, the Capital of the State, there are
a Presbyterian and Methodist Church. In
San Jose two Methodist, one Presbyterian, and
one Baptist church, all under the guidance of
laborious and efficient men. In Stockton, there
two Methodist one Presbyterian and one
Baptist church; all of which appear to be doing
we'll Besides these, Marysvillc and Placerville,
and the various other towns and country en-
campments, are SO supplied as to employ an ag-
gregate OF something like one hundred ministers.

Ne are growing very old, Kate
| feel II every day,
The hair upon my temple now
Is growing thin and gray.
We are not, as we We're, Kate,
And yet our hearts are young.
As when we roved the sunny hills,
And flowery dales among.
We are growing very old, Kate,
But it is not age of heart,
Though speedily the hour comes on,
When thou and must part:
When thou and must part, Kate,
As we have ne'er before,
Beside our cottage hearth to meet
With words OF love no more.
But we're growing very cid, Kate,
And the parting won't be long,
Till we meet within better home,
Amid yon heavenly throng,
Till we sing the song together, Kate,
The angels sing above;
Where meier the fear of parting takes
The blessednesS from love.
