outrage Mr.. Argus upon the good sense of the peo-

and governors printers, tailors, back>nlths, shoe
makers and niggers all worked in the mines and
got rich together. Then people were honest, you

its pursuit. The mines are not worked OUT and
will not be for centuries. The gold deposits cf
California have no parallel in the world now known
We shall hereafter continue the consideration of
this subject, and speak from facts under our obser-
vation. We are not disposed to deal in the fiction
of "big strikes" and immensely rich dggings" the
manner in which these are published without at
tending circumstances and details is nothing more
nor less than unmitigated humbug and their circu-
aton in the form in which they appear, produc-
tive of great harm among the uninitiated Every
miner understands their character and heartily des
pises the journal giving them circulation 1t is too
late in the day for traders and ruln.shops to con-
tnue this stereotyped mode of deception We en-
brace this occasion to say that from our experience
in the mines we view all such publications with
great suspicion and esteem them as but little better
than lies Of the first water True, pounds of gold
are sometimes taken cut in single hour; we have
seen fifteen pounds obtained in that time, and IN
that instance the miners did not realize IL net of
"six bits day for their labor in reaching it, So

STAGE LINE OVER THE PLAINs.--The city papers
discussing the feasibility of line of Stages for
the conveyance of passengers and from this State
across the Plains We are glad this enterprise is
beginning to attract attention, and hope the project
will be discussed until not only "stagers' but the
whole community is fully aroused. 1t would ap-
pear from estimates already made that the project
is practicable and likely to be remuneratve as an
investment. The establishment of such line of
Stages will, in part at least, relieve the people of
this State from the systematic schemes of plunder
and robbery now introduced by the Ocean Steam
lines at the same time convince the people of the
Atlantic States of the great Importance of rail-
way Let company be formed at with a
capital stock of say millions of dollars in shares
of one hundred dollars hundreds of miners will
subscribe indeed we believe the stock would all be
taken in week

Our BRASS BAND.---We cannot refrain from be-
slowing our small need of praise upon the gentle
men composing this amateur Band But short
time has passed since their organization, during
which they have been quite industrious, and under
the skillful tuition of their leader, Herr Windus
they are progressing as we think finely. No small
degree of labor and attention is needu in order to
qualify person to play his part well in Band,
and we truly hope all the present members will
during our long winter evenings, bestow that labor
and attention which will well repay them. Apro-
pos to this We wonder why our young men do
not organize u military eompany---we think it only
needful to hint the thing

MINING Since the recent rains miners have
abandoned the rivers and resumed their locations
in the dry diggings. Inconvenience and disappoint
ment is now felt in the want Of water. At the
present writing there is more indication of rain
than in July last, and many miners entertain the
opinion that we are to have winter similar to that
of so and 81. The South Fork of the American
river never was lower than at the present time, and
are informed that the Middle Fork is now as
low as before the rains. Extensive preparations,
however, are being made, the canals keep many
men employed--a drenching ram will please miners
and make bankers laugh.

BUSINESS The prospect for profitable business
in this town was never more fattering than at
present. There is not single unoccupicd tene-
ment or place of business in town The number
of miners in this vicinity was never greater, and
the facilities for mining unrivalled The large
canals are in successful operation, furnishing an
unfailng supply Of being all fed directly from the
river, in connection with three smaller canals
which introduce the waters of as MANY large cam
ons, afford ample facilities for washing the aurfer-
GUS earth surrounding Coloma in every direction.
There is ample room for many more industrious
men, who cannot fail of reaping fair returns for
their labor.

BUILDING,-.- there never was at any time within
our knowledge SO much building going on in this
town at present. Tearing down old structures
and erecting larger and better is the order Of

old one occupied by him. Several neatprivate res
