Sacramento Correspondence.

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 9th, 1850.
Mr.. Editor: Thinking that a few items
from the Capital might be interesticg to your
readers | indite few that occurs to me at
this moment.
In the first place our Railroad is progress
ING rapidly, and will probably be finished to
Negro Bar this winter. The cars are now
running out some fourteen miles from the
city. Can't you come down and take "a ride
on the rail- not in the fashion they have on
the 'borders,' but in a good comfortable car.
on the pioneer railroad of California, when
you can see more of the country i'll a given
period than in any other way, unless you
perch yourself on one of your lofty noun
tains and have river, hill and plain spread
out before YOU in one vast panorama, which
we poor denizens of the plains can rarely
enjoy.
Strange faces are frequent in our streets,
and the available lodging places are fast
being engaged by the coming session of the
legislature, and unless the citizens of Placer
who intend spending the winter, take Time
"By the covering that hangs over the top of his
frontispiece,"
they will have to put up with third rate ac-
commodations.
Aspirants for Office are busy in marshaing
their forces for the contest. Many of them
are being 'wildy hunted for to be placed
in positions The office of Speaker seems to
be attracting the attention of many at pres
ent. Among the candidates spoken of are
Curtis, of Siskiyou; Farley, of Amador; Ma
or Weir, and DR.. T. J. Oxley of Tuolumne
The latter gentleman seems to be far in ad-
vance of his competitors in the race at pres
ent. The Doctor was member of the last
legislature, and by his agreeable and cour-
teous behavior gave great satisfaction in the
House. | think there is hardly any doubt
but what he will be elected Speaker.
Another important question will soon be
on the tapis and is now often asked: "Who
will be SENATOR" As the Known Nothngs
have majority on joint ballot | should not
be surprised if the choice fell upon Henry A.
Crabb, who has for a number of years held a
commanding influence in his party Tor par
ties), and who | consider superior to any of
the aspirants on his side of the house, and
who would no doubt be more acceptable to
the democratic party than Foote Marshall
and politicians of like stamp, for | earnestly
hope these latter gentlemen will be snugly
slowed away on the shelf
1t would rejoice you to witness the i'm
mense amount of business that is daily done
in our city. The steamers and vessels are
doing a heavy amount Of business, and
tile streets are full of wagons loading
for the mountains. This has been the best
business season for Sacramento that has been
known for several years. Yours, DC.

GRANADA, Nicaragua, Nov. 18th, '55.
Editor Placer Herald: send you the Sd
No. of El Nicaraguense, from which you will
get more news Of Importance than can tell
you, as it is a printers business to collect
news, and soldiers to drill, eat, sleep, and
fight little.
With regard to Nicaragua and the expe-
dition, | am highly pleased, and feel sorry
that more of our friends in California, who
are dissatisfied, are not with us, as | am of
the opinion they can all do well down here.
| have seen but little of the interior of the
country yet, but expect to take trip to Leon
and other places in a short time, and then
will describe to you all | see. This country
suits me to a dot-plenty to eat and no work
Don't you think there are plenty of men in
California in my fix. We expect some friends
from California on the next steamer-some
on the one following, and so on until we
number five thousand; then the ''wool will
| fly" Walker is little man, but, oh. Lord
Our friend Robt. w. Armstrong, late Dep
uty Sheriff of Placer, arrived here on the
eth inst, in command of forty-f men, who
were turned into an infantry company and
armed with the finest L. S. muskets | have
ever seen, of which General Walker has five
hundred more, now in charge of Lieut.. Roll
ordnance officer of our battalion. Captain
Armstrong was assigned to the same and
and his company letter is E. William
McCarty, late County Assessor and Deputy
Sheriff of Placer, is member Of Capt. AS
company. Mr. Samuel Masserve, late Of
Placer, came down with Armstrong's com
pany, but joined company A, under com
mand of Capt. John Markham. Our old
friend Jake Colmas is member of the same
company
The boys are all highly pleased, and wish
their acquaintance to come down and take
stock with lis.
| will write again soon and continue to
send you our paper, from which you can get
all the news of Importance. Don't fail to
send me each number of the Herald-it will
be big treat for all the boys, and

ty men.
Col. Kewen returns to California to recruit

with those who come down to attach them
selves to my company; say the same to all
my old friends. wish to have one hundred
men in my command and then | can storm

best drilled company in the service. The
Colonel wants to raise fifteen hundred men,

going to take possession of all fire of the
States of which Corral speaks in his letter

AUBURN, DECEMBER 8, 1855
Division of Placer County.

We had intended to review this question
at some length in our present issue, but the
letter of our Yankee Jim correspondent, and
other communications prevent us from de-
voting much room to the subject.
This project has evidently been started by
parties who are more interested in securing
a few petty county offices than from any
benefit they mediate towards the tax payers
Of the proposed new county. And from our
own knowledge of the feelings of the citizens
of the Divide, we are satisfied there are a
large majority of them who are opposed to
the movement. And from these facts-that
the evidence of the records show that the
lower portion of the county pays two-thlrds
of all the money that goes into the County
Treasury, and that two-thirds of the expenses
Of the criminal calender, taking it for the
last three years, has originated on the Divide,
they will oppose the measure, knowing full
well as they do, that there is more security for
them in the future, by remaining as they are,
than trying the uncertainties of petty coun-
tv, assuming heavy debt to start with, not
dollar in the treasury, nor public buildings
of any kind-al of which would have to be
built at heavy expense, and for which still
heavier taxes would have to be levied, and
as a matter of course, the tax payers to pay
them.
But we shall again refer to this subject,
and we have no doubt, we will hear of many
of the prominent citizens of the eastern por-
ton of the county who oppose this premature
and unnecessary move.
The Placer herald., 1855-12-08
The War. between Guatemala and other
Central American Republics.

We learn from a gentleman arriving yes
terday from Central America, that extensive
preparations are on foot in Nicaragua to pro-
ceed with considerable force of Americans
to Honduras to take part with President
Cabanas of that Republic against the Guate,
maan invaders. Costa Rica, San Salvador,
Nicaragua and Honduras are about forming
a league against Guatemala, whose agents
have for the last few years labored constantly
for the dismemberment of the republic, with
view to the re-establishment Of the old pro-
vlnclal systematic four Southern republics
to be dependant colonies The war between
Chamorro and Castelon has been traced to
this source, and the invasion by Lopez and
Guardlola were entirely owing to the plot OF
the Guatemalan agent. The largest and
most efficient force ever raised in Central
America, since the days of Morazan, is organ
lzlng-Costa Rica and San Salvador alone
furnishing $500. 1t is more than probable
that Walker will continue his march through
the country to the cities of Quasaltenango
and Guatemala, and finally organize great
Southern Republic stretching from Tehaunte
pee to New Grenada This has long been
the day dream of numerous Central Amer
can patriots, and recent events seem to poln
out the present time as that of its fulfilmen'

[oBrTUARY NOTICE. COMMUNICATED BY ONE OF THE
MOURNERS
Fatal Accident,

By most unfortunate accident which occurred
near this place on Thursday the 9th inst, we are
compelled to record the death of our esteemed
friend and companion s.. He was out hunting
with friend of his, and unluckily got in line
with the shot of his friend and beyon the object
of sight, hidden by grass and underground, and
when the gun discharged the poor fellow received
most of the load in his head. When his grief
stricken friend came up to him he was merely
able to rise and lean against him in last friend
ly recognition, which he did and then died with
out a struggle.
There are those who have filled greater space
in the public attention than S. but none were
truer or more devoted to those he recognized as
his friends. He was not connected as we know of
to any particular system of ethics. yet his SINGER
ity untailng gratitude. entire absence of all pro-
family, by word or deed furnish bright example
for even a good man to follow. In short she was
gentle, he was kind we may never, never find, a
better friend" than him. TowsER

For the Miners.

1t has long been an object with the mi
ners Of this county, to devise some way by
which they could save the very fine gold
which exists in great abundance in many of
our placer mining localities. Many for sew
eral years past have been using the improve
ment on the long-tom - the sluice box,
charged with quicksilver; and this has been
the favorite mode for saving gold i'll the sur
face diggings. Recently a Mr.. Ford, of Ne
vada has invented ''ritfie-box," which we
think is superior to anything we have yet
seen for saving fine gold 1t is very simple,
and can be carried from one point to an
other, and one great recommendation, it
overcomes fall-requiring but six inches for
its use, and any amount of water can be
used, from two inches to two hundred; ma
king it very desirable machine for the mi
ming country adjacent to the foot hills in
this county. 1t is so constructed that the
quicksilver can be drawn off in a few mo-
ments without any water; and we are firmly
convinced that when Ford's invention comes
into general use, our miners will work sur
face diggings which have for long time
been considered worthless
The agents for this county are Messrs.
Thorndike d Rowell, who in a few weeks in
tend to visit all the principal mining camps
in the lower part of the county.
The WAY THEY DO 1.-THE Know-Noth-
ings of Ophir held a meeting on last Satur-
day evening, slim attendance so the little
bird says, when member presented peti-
ton for bis withdrawal from the council, but
the "brethrng' refused his request without
he paid $500, which they claimed he owed
for dues We have been informed the APP
plicant has come to the conclusion to con-
slider himself an outsider dues or no dues

How Stands the Democracy.

Those who are living in the belief that the
Democracy has gone to the wall, should read
the following list of States that have gone
for the Democratic party the past season.
Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Ar
kansas, Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi, North
Carolina, South Carolina, New jersey, Wis
consin, Pennsy Indiana Maine, Ore
gon, Washington Territory and Minnesota.
While on the other hand the "Natonal'
Know-Nothings as they pretend to call them
selves have only carried California, Kentucky,
and Maryland.
And the abolition or free soil Know-No-
things have carried New York, Massachusetts,
and Vermont.
