yer, Mr. George H. Thomas formerly Of
Hempsted. county, Arkansas, aged 20
years.
When the above unwsleome intelli.

sole themselves and mitigate this sad
dispense tion of Providence, BY the as.
.urance that he received every atten-
ton and kindness that his condition re-
quirsd.
Those to whom they entrusted the
guardianship and care of this son when
be set out for California, proved in every
emergency prominently worthy Of
their confidence. They stood beside his
couch until the last gliinmsrin spark Of
vitality was extinct, and ministered 10

and deep solicitude of The most devoted

Theatrical.

On THURSDAY night, 10Th, othello was
brought out to large audience. MIR.
Waller appeared in the part of Othello
and invested it with that peculiar frrce
that distinguishes his tragic action
Mrs. Waller was most happy as Desde-
mona. Gates made q hit as Iago, and
was called with Mr. Waller before the
curtain.
On the succeeding evening Hamlet
was produced, and we have nothing tc
add to the remarks of "Pike" as to the
principal characters. Laertes was rem
dered by Taylor in his hnppiest style,
giving much satisfaction. He was hon.
ored, with Ophelia and Hamlet, by a
voeifsrous call at the close. We thought
the ejaculation of Hamlet, "Alas, poor
ghost -" most appropriate to Batters'
exhibition of that parsonage. 1t was the
poorest ghost we ever witnessed. His
appeal to my lord Amlet was so very af-
fec ting it was difficult to keep h-up the
gravity proper in surh presence.
The great feature of the week was
Ii gomar, which was brought out on
Monday and Wednesday nights. We
but echo the universal voice in saying
it was brilliantly done. New scenery
was prepared for the piece by Tirrell,
which displayed excellent taste. Mr.
Waller tsok the part of Ingomar, and
with Parthenia, Mrs. Waller, snchained
the attention of the audience through
the FIVE acts. We need net to praise

five may judge.by the evidences af-
forded by the papers below, the drama
is better sustained here than elsewhere
in the State, and the company with US
is the best on the California boards.
There is no doubt that the prominent
individuals of the corps, are equallsd by
none others. These, supported by Taylor,
Barry, Gates, Tuthill, Elderton, Bennett

R1cH DIscovrRr.-We learn from Mr..
Webber, the enterprising county assessor
that new diggiugs have been discovered
in fat between Washington and Jeffer-
son on the South Yuba, by some men
named Keene, Hurd and Brown. On
Tuesday, 18th inst. these men took cut
with tom $3.50. On Wednesday they
washed from one half pan $18s. Our
informant passed about noon and then
their mornings work amounted to $440,-
IS. This party Of men had worked
about Ave days on the spot. Some six
or eight other companies are nt work,
and all who have been at work few
days 50 as to get in are averaging about
twenty dollars to the hand. The place
contains about four acres, and rises
very gradually from the river. The gold
lies in crevices, and is quite coarse, the
largest piece taken out weighing $50.
The party had made a cut in the bank
from the river among the rocks, to drain
their claims, which, at the point where
SO much gold was discovered was about
six feet deep to the crevice. We are
sorry to say the new diggings ore call
ed Brandy Flat" and the distinction of
0eing true denizens Of such place can
NOS DO denied to at least the party
whose great success we have chronicled.

Quartz mining in California.

"Slewly and reluctantly, but surely
we come, day by day, to Q stronger opln-
ion that, At least for q long time to come
quartz mining in this state will not pay.
We may be wrong-we hope we are
but we must sec better evidences Of
prosperity than empty reports Of Com
panies organized for speculative purpcs-
es, and Boards of Directors selected for
no other qualifications than the glibness
of their tongues and the smothness Of
their pens, before We shall be likely to
change our opinions. True. rich depos-
its of gold ara occasionally found in the
rock. Some fsw-sne, two or three Of
the quartz mining companies may pay
their way, but we are convinced the
majority Of them are losing concerns
Of old the excuse for want of dividends
was poverty of machinery and want Of
skill-the mills were inadequate, and
the gold was not properly saved but
this can be urged no longer. Powerful
machinery, of various patterns, and of
fully adequate capacity, has been put
in operation in many places, and the
skill that could save every particle Of
gold in Virginia can hardly bv taxed
with losing much in California."-Sun.
Situated as we are in the county where
quartz is most extensively worked, We
dislike to let such articles as the above
pass. We have not space for lengthy
review Of this subject ts-day, but prom
ise to give the result of our observations
before long. No interest has suffered
SO much as quartz mining from the ig-
norance of it's friends and criticisms of
nero eavilers. We much doubt if the
author of the above ever saw quartz
mill in operation, or has even dim idea
of the extent of present succ essful quartz
operations. Within earshot of Office al
mes. are quartz mills that have been rum
ming year or two. Will Bonnard keep
up the Sun year or two if it don't
pay! There are many mills in this
county that keep steadily at work, that
never solicit public notice, and therefor e
seldom enter as elements into the 'opin-
ions of critical we When we wants a
subject for q pa ragraph he sits down and
dashes of dozen generalities dsprecia-
tory Of quarts, with the history of which
be knows little more than that Fremsnt
has claim in Mariposa, and Larkin
near the Butes, with which tAey are
CALLING English capitalists. Thus a mer-
itorious and fundamental interest is da-
maged, because a couple dozen lines are
needed to ELL a paper.
The principal failures in quartz have
fallen on the actual operators--on work
ing nen--who had poor machinery and
little capital. Mills that had means to
perfect their machinery by experiment.,
have seldom failed. Most of these who
succeed have little motive to make the
amount Of their success known. They
do not advertise dividends for they are
on the ground to receive them.
