The Texas Gold Mines an Unmitigated
Humbug.

We learn, says the Memphis Eagle Of the
26th, from gentleman Of undoubted We
racity, who arrived yesterday on the steamer
Empire, direct from Galveston, that the
report Of extraordinary gold discoveries in
Western Texas is an unmitigated humbug,
got up by land owners to enhance the value
Of their land property in the reputed gold
region. At Austin, which is within sixty
miles of the so-called gold region, from
which our informant also comes direct, the
thing is well understood, and there no excite
ment exists. At Galveston and at New
Orleans, where the only excitement on the
subject has existed, hundreds Of ''gold hunt.
ers" are being turned back by. the more cor
rect accounts which are coming down from
the reputed gold region.
The Houston (Texas) Telegraph of the
18th inst, FURNISHED us by our friendly has
the following significant paragraph:
LATE FROM THE Coin MINEs.-Several
parties who lately visited the 'gold diggins"
on the Sandies and Hamilton's Valley have
returned, and report that gold has certainly
been found, but in very small quantities.
A gentleman who visited the mines on the
Sandy stated that he did not see any person
who had washed out more than one or two
dollars day, and many had found nothing.
Parties are constantly going to the mines,
and others are returning from them; but few
are seen with valuable specimens of ore.
The grocery keepers in the diggns make
more gold than any Of the miners. We are
informed that there is grocery established
on one of the branches OF the Sandy, where
specimens Of the gold can be seen at al
times. The keeper of the grocery has
a "Long Tom," which he uses occasionally
10 show the quality of the sand, and he ha.
repeatedly washed out several grains of gold
some Of them as large as grain of wheat
He is doing very profitable business sell
ing whisky and renting the Long Tom tc

sand they obtain in the neighbOring creeks

From tho Springfield Republican, Nov. Is.


The rain of Sunday, as we anticipated, produced
rapid rise in all the streams IN this vicinity, as
well as in more distant localities. The Connecti-
cut river at Springfield is as high as 1t was at any
time last spring. The Agawam meadows are
under water and on Monday morning about one
hundred head of cattle water-bound upon
them. The travelling bridge at Mittenique, over
the Agawam river, was partly carried away. This
was nearly new bridge. culyert on the west
ern railroad, near Westfeld, was washed away
but was repaired in season TO allow of the regular
passage of trains. Many of the bridges on the
western road were submerged during Sunday but
none Of them suffered. We hear of damage from
the storm in almost every direction. Great dam
age has been done on the Housatonlc, Danbury,
and n augatuck railroads, in Connecticut, so that
on Monday the obstruction of the trains was COM
plete save on the lower portion OF the Housatonic
road.
The bridge Of the Hudson railroad at Purdy's
station, over the Croton river, was swept away,
and the telegraph wires with it.
About sixty feet OF the track of the New Haven,
Hartford, and Springfield railroad at Windsor, were
washed away on Sunday, obstructing the passage
Of the Sunday night mail cars in each direction,
between New York and Boston
The rain Of Sunday was so powerful and severe
in Berkshire that the streams were swollen and
the roads rendered so heavy that our expresses
were only successful in collecting returns by the
most persevering exertons and arduous labors.
Several Of the streams were forded by our express
teams, and extra relays of horses were found ne
cessary. Arrangements were made for every
town, but the messenger for New Marlborough
and Monterey failed TO connect as arranged.
The vote was also very light in many of the
towns, in consequence OF the water being so high
that many Of the voters could not get to the polls.
