An Act for the better preservation OF the
Mines I'm California.

This hill was introduced in the Senate
on the 18th inst, by Mr.. FLINT. Its OBJ
iect is of great Importance to this State
The first and second sections provide that
it shall be unlawful for any person, not ell
igible to citizenship, to take gold from the
mines of the State, except as further provi-
ded; Justices Courts to have jurisdiction,
and for each offence penalty Of not less
than fifty nor over two hundred dollars. In
case this penalty is not paid, an execution is
to be issued against the property and person
of the offender. Section third provides for
the manner Of the sale on the excution.-
Section fourth provides for the payment of
all such fines to the County Treasurer, and
such funds to be set apart for roads and
highways. Section fifth provides that in
case the fine is not made by the execution,
the sheriff or constable is to transfer the Of
fender to the supervisor of roads and high
ways to labor upon the same. Section sixth
provides for the maintenance of such Of
tenders, and that one dollar per day be al
lowed for such services until the fine and
costs are paid, when such persons shall be
duly discharged. The seventh and last sec
tion provides that citizens and those eligible
to citizenship may employ those not eligi-
bic, by procuring the license already requir-
Il u l.
however, that no penalty is provided against
those who may employ persons not eligible
to citizenship to work in the mines. 1t is
very probable some action will be taken
during the present session of the Legisla-
ture. This bill may pass, but if so, will be
much modified by amendments, as we think
it should be. The object of this bill is re-
garded with great favor

PANAMA RAILROAD CoMTLErED.-This

PANAMA RAILROAD CoMTLETED.-This
long expected and very important announce
ment, is at last made. The cars passed
from Aspinwall through to Panama on the
3lst of January The distance is fifty miles
This is an event in the history of the world
Of no small import. The great difficulty
heretofore in coming to California by sea-
was the difficulties and dangers of crossing
the Isthmus. Although they do not make
usual railroad time-the whole crossing will
now be made between two and three hours.
This is the only Pacific railroad upon which
anything has been done, and is completed
while we have been talking about the n orth-
ern, Southern and Middle routes. Panama.
too, by this great work, will rise, Phoenix
like, from her ruins. We hear of the great
natural advantages of places in our own
country and others-but the Isthmus of
Darien is about as near the centre of the
world as any place we can see upon the
map. The enterprise of Americans will
make San Francisco the depot for the high
way Of the nations yet to be built-but
Panama seems to be the connecting link in
geographical point Of view, between North
and South America, and between Australia,
Japan, China and the East Indies with Eu-
rope Hence the great natural advantages
of the Panama railroad, and the Importance
of its completion to the world.

SPANISH FLAr.-We visited this town
last week, and were gratifed in seeing quite
a business like appearance displayed among
the business men and miners of the place
True, there was no comparison with seasons
of rain, but we had expected to see the town
in "dried up condition, and were agreea-
bly, surprised to find it otherwise. During
rainy seasons, there is not, perhaps, a bet
ter mining country to be found than that of
Spanish Flat. The Ball, at the PARKER
House, in this place, came off on last We'd
nesday evening, to the apparent satisfaction
OF all present. There were fifteen or twenty
couple present, and the supper was credit
able alike to the Hotel and the place.

MAMALUKE HILL, Feb. 18th, 1855.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Having been a constant
reader of your valuable paper since its COM
mencement, claim as a privilege space
in its columns. Although WOMAN, l some
times write for the press, and fatter myself
that my communications merit the APPROX
al of the Editors, Gf no one else,) as they
commonly give publicity to them. During
my short stay in this quiet place, | have
been most agreeably surprised in noticing
the changes that have taken place, in NOR
al point of view. But a still more efectu-
al change is necessary. We want more
strict observance Of the Sabbath, and
earnestly hope our legislators will take some
step IN the matter, during the present ses-
sion. | think, Mr.. Editor, it becomes your
duty to impress upon the minds of the peo-
pie the Importance of a speedy action in the
matter. | should like to see a mammoth
petition sent in from this place, as we'll as
from all Others, to have this evil abolished.
California calls for it, and ace must hare At,
or else we never need expect society to rise
on level with that of her sister States
A bill Of this kind, l think, could be as cas-
lily passed as the $1,000 bill was, and l am
quite certain his Excellency would not veto
it-don't you agree with me, Mr. Editor;
but, however, we cannot conscientiously
censure that honorable body for that little
selfishnesS these "hard times"
There is one thing more that deserves the
attention of our legislators, and that is, to
pass Prohibitory Liquor Law. Now /
think, if we could only have such law as
that, in connection with one for the better
observance of the Sabbath, we might look
for better times, and in fact, we would have
better morals in our society. l am not ex-
actly "Woman's Rights" woman, but |
should like for us the privilege of handling
the legislative affairs awhile, we would then
see, if there was not less brandy and more
church. Yours, truly, EMILY.

State Funding Bill.

The Union treats this Bill after the fol
lowing style:
"The bill to fund the floating debt of the
State, issued previously to 1st July, 1855
passed the Senate yesterday. 1t provides
for the issuing of seven per cent. bonds, in
terest payable semi-annually in New York
for the purpose of absorbing the mass Of
Controllers warrants in circulation. We
anticipate favorable results from the opera
tion of this bill, particularly if the financial
transactions of the State are brought abso-
lutely to cash basis.
But in order to keep them there, it be-
comes absolutely necessary that the expen-
ses of the State be brought within her in
come, Unless this result is produced by the
future action of the Legislature, another
funding law will become necessary in 1857
In this connection the remark of Mr. Tut
tie in reference to an early adjournment
were opposite. We dissented from his po-
sitions and arguments against the passage
of the funding bill, but concurred most fully
in the recommendation as an important step
in State economy, of an earley adjournment
of the Legislature. Most certainly the peo-
pie would be greatly benefited, if the legis-
lative body would pass general Supervis-
or's bill, a specific appropriation bill, the
census bill, some slight amendments to the
revenue bill, and to the law of attachments
and mortgages, and then adjourn
Beside the above business, necessary to
be transacted previous to the adjournment
of the Legislature, we would add-the ne
cessity of law for the observance of the
Sabbath-an act or resolution encourage
ing the Atlantic and Pacific Stage Road
together with some law regulating the evils
of intemperance. We would then be ready
to continue with the Union in the assertion
that so far as we can see, "there is no neces-
sity for long session, and the earlier mem
bers resolve positively to adjourn, the great
er the service they will render the State. "
By the first of next April, as is proposed
the Legislature will have had ample time
for the transaction of all business at present
required ; after which time, each additional
day will add grevious and unnecessary ex-
pense to the State

In FAVOR OF ORDER AND TEMPERANCE

In FAVOR OF ORDER AND TEMPERANCE
1t will be seen, by noticing correspond
ence in another column, that the ladies are
becoming interested in the great and glori-
GUS cause Of morality and reformation. We
are rejoiced to see it; for whenever and
wherever their influence is thrown into the
balancing scales Of moral revolution, it will
prove itself more effective and potent than
speeches, lectures, sermons, or even than
conventions or armies. The sword is DOW
erlesS before it, and the strong knee of man
hood bows in gallant submission to the mod
est yet earnest petitions of those, rhom to
serre, is an acknowledged privilege to man.
Therefore, upon their influence, rests the
moral prosperity of our state and country.
1t could not be supposed that woman would
openly throw her influence against morali-
ty, but she does oppose it, when she does not
act in concert with it. In taking this view
of the subject, it is, with pleasure, that we
give place in our columns to the CORES
pondence of EMILY, on the subjects Of tenn
perance and the better observance of the
Sabbath. We hope this lady will favor the
Netrs by furnishing it with frequent contri-
buttons.

EXPRESSING ExTRAoRDINARY.-B Between
Georgetown and Bottle Hill, there are two
express trains brought into requisition up
on the arrival Of every steamer On last
Sunday evening, upon the arrival of the
mail, Mr.. GIBBS Of the horse train, and Mr..
BUNTING of the mule train, started their ri
ders in hot haste, the object of which was
the first delivery of the news at Bottle Hill.
As the horse happened to be somewhat fa-
tigued, the race between horse and mule be-
came somewhat exciting. At first, the
horse far out-distanced the mule, but in the
vicinity Of Georgia Slide, the rider of the
horse, to his great discontinue, discovered
the rapidly advancing approaches of "long
ears" Here commenced q renewed strug-
gle, the "war cry" of which was "yictory or
death" The rattling of horses hoofs and
mules hoois, was said to be truly appalling,
AS they approached the vicinity of Bottle
Hill as is usual with GIBBS good luck, the
horse was found to be considerably in ad-
vance, and true to his "bottom" and grit"
arrived in that village, according to exact
time, by the totcn clock, just tuo minutes in
Gdrance Of the mule. Our informant says
unanimous shout went up for GIBBS,
which, by-the-by, was only quieted by an
immediate distribution Of the --latest news

For the GEORGETOWN News

Mr.. EDIToR-The miners of Pilot Hill
and vicinity assembled on Monday evening
the 18th inst, for the purpose of taking
some preliminary steps towards organizing
a company whose object is to convey water
to our section. ROBERT E. DRAPER, was
called to the chair, and Mr. HOWARD, elect
ed Secretary.
The object of the meeting being explain
ed, the meeting proceeded to consider the
source from which the contemplated Co.,
will have to procure their water; the diff
terent sources advocated, are Otter Greek
in connection with Canon Greek, and Sill
yer Creek in connection with Slab Creek.
Mr.. Hilton, of Greenwood, and others ia
vored the former, and Mr.. Brooks, (of the
company of Brooks & Clark give their
preference for the latter source.
1t seems from Mr.. Brooks statement that
there is portion of the line that he prefers
now in operation and he suggested to con-
tinue it through the mining region Of Span
ish Flat, American Flat, Johntown, Green
wood Valley, Pilot Hill and thence to
Wild Goose Flat.
The meeting come to no definite conclu-
sion as to which source they would select.
Mr.. Brooks promised to give them rough
estimate (as to the cost of the work., one
week hence, to which time the meeting
stands adjourned.
learn this morning that Mr.. Clark of
said firm together with their Engineer, have
gone above for the purpose of making a
partial survey, and in all probability the
route and source will be settled upon at
our meeting next Monday evening.
Pilot Hill and vicinity needs water; her
mines will justify it and she will have it
Pilot Creek & r. G. Co., could undoubted-
ly conduct their water to our section at a
much less cost and in shorter time than
a new Co., for their water is already on
the divide and could be extended with a
0A1i0NiA "uAAoAOAiolA OueloS; JC1 we are lllIOrm-
ed that they have not suficiency of water
on their present line of Ditch and of course
they cannot furnish US. Water is what we
need-as it regards bitches we have too
many of them now-and all like their own
ers, dried up. The two sources now under
consideration and to which | have alluded.
| am not sufficiently informed to say which
is preferable, however, l am aware that
Messrs. Brooks & Clark, have a reputation
as ditch builders and am fully persuaded
that they understand their business. and
should their estimate of the probable cost of
the work, come within the available means
of the contemplated Co., l hesitate not in
saying that our claims will soon be amply
supplied with water.
Improvement and progression is the
theme of the day, why should Pilot Hill be
an exception.
Yours truly,
