We clip the following from the San Francis
co Chronicle of Dec. 18th. "The Columbia Ga
zctte gives the following report of the speech of
Table Mountain miner at the late assembly to
discuss the subjcc, of the size of mining claims
in Table Mountain. The Shaw's fat miners
wished to cut down the claims:
Gentlemen, Miners, Citizens I'm no
spekilater I'm not heare tn make sumthin' out
of sumbody clse-nara time-not I. I'm hearc
tn talk outthe truth, and stand up for the just;
and I'm goin' to du it, and no mistake. We hav
been down hcare at work; we have worked hard
and long. Many big days liks hav we put in,
and put in strong No one thought much of it,
or much of US. We no CRATE akount. We
war fools. Table Mountain war humbug, and
men had good time maxim fun of us and over
our work. Nobody thought then that our claims
war tn largc-Oh no. not bit! They did not
care if we had all the mountain; 1t wac our hum
bug, and we might have it all-evcry bit OF it.
They did not want foot ofit-Oh, no! not they!
Blme hi, when we had gone in, and broke our
backs til du il, and we got sumthin' then they
found it was good thing, and down they comes
and saws: "Gve us sum- belong to Shaw 5
Flat and must have chance; here is our laws,
and we are in. We ar the peeps, and wants a
share. We wants to ring in our Shaw's Flat
laws over you, du. and we we're goin' tn du
it; YES, we will, for we're bound tn hav sum of
the mountain, anyhow. It's good thing, and
no humbug now, and we are on it," Once they
did not care: thar no fuss at first but it was
found good spec, and then they comes after
us. They did not care if we had foot or
thousand, not they. But when it was good,
down they runs: GIVE lis sum-" says they,
you hay got tn much, your claims ar tn big
let's hav shar" Then comes anuther set, and
says, ''you must give us slice tn; we want sum
of the balance; you've got tn much yet And
then comes more ofum, and says, 'you had tn
much at first ought not to have any at all now" "
That's the way they talks but it won't du.-
Thar's my hands; thar's the karbunkles on 'um :;
thar's the thick blisters, and the tuff skin thars
the work I've dun it. I've put in my muney,
morn four hundred dollars, and my labur, and
I'd like tn the speklater that's goin' tn take it
from me. Let him face them hands, and I'll
drill him, and give him blast that'll send him as
high as he wants tn go, and higher tn. The
miners rites shall be protected, we will hav our
own; it belongs to us; its ourn; its rite, its just,
its honest, and we will have it.

THE Man WITH WHITE HAIR--On the excur-
sion train from Utica to Boonville, at the open
inv of the Utica and Black River Railroad, our
attention was arrested by the singular appear
ance of an apparently middlc-aged man. whose
hair and whiskers were perfectly white. We
learned upon inquiry that he was a native of
Oneida county, but was now resident of Cali
iorna, where he has resided for several years,
engaged principally in mining. The cause OF
his white hair he explained as follows He was
engaged in mining, and had several men at work
in mine which extended some ways under
ground One day he went to carry the dinner
to his men, and when he had been there but a
few minutes, they heard the umistakable sounds
of the caving in of the sides of the mouth of
the shaft
Four men started at once, hoping to escape,
but were crushed to DEATH He was enclosed in
space of about six by twelve feet, while three
men below him were cut off from any commu-
cation with him, and he supposed they were
crushed to death. He had light and plenty of
water and provisions, but his chance of ever
seeing daylight was not very hattering, as he
was some sixty or seventy feet under the sur
face of the earth, and he was not GER
tain that the disaster would be discovered
in time to make any attempt to relieve
him; and if such an attempt should be
made, the prospect was that it would prove in
etlectual
Fortunately, the disaster was early discov-
cred and large force was set to work, and after
nnremtted exertions for three days and nights,
he was discovered in an exhausted condi-
ton. The three men below him were also
tound alive When taken out, his friends de-
Jared that for day or two he was par
daily insane. His hair had also become
nearly white during his confinement. His feel
ngs during those three days he claimed
could not be imagined, but that his whole
life passed rapidly in review, and that every
act was brought wildly to mind. In fact,
those three days appeared like lifetime to
| him. He said that the sight of one of those
| shafts always caused shudder to pass over him

Your NEIGHBORS.-Iakc care Of them
Don't let them stir without watching. They may
DO something wrong ii you do. To be sure you
never knew them to do anything very bad, but
it may be on your account they have not. Per-
haps if it had not been for your kind care they
mi ht have dsgraced themselves and families a
long time ago. Therefore, don't relax any effort
to Keep them where they ought to be; never
mind your own business, that will take care of
itself There is man passing along-there, he
is looking over the fence into his neighbors gar
den-be suspicious of him, perhaps he contem-
plates stealing something some of these dark
nights, there is no knowing what queer tancies ne
may get into his head. II you see any symp-
toms Of any passing out OF the path OF rect-
tude, don't say anything to the erring individual
about it, but tell every one else that you can see
and be particular to see great many. 1t is a
good way to circulate such things, and though
it may not benefit yourself, nor any one else in
particular, it will be something equally impor
tunt about some one else. Do keep something
agoing, silence is dreadful thing; though it is
said there was silence in the Courts of Heaven
for the space OF half an hour, don't let any such
thing occur OH earth, it would be too much
like Heaven for the inhabitants of this mum
dane sphere. IT, after all your watchtul care,
Won can't see anything out of the way in any
one. YOU may be sure it is not because they have
done anything wrong, perhaps in an unguardcd
moment you lost sight of them, throw out hints
they are no better than they should be-that
YOU should not wonder if people found out what
they were after awhile, and that they must not
always carry their heads so high. Keep it a
going and some one will take the hint and begin
TO help YOU after whe-Tl,en there will be
music, and everything will work to charm.

Our readers may be willing to note, by the
way, what the Presidents oily organ has to say
about the contest for the. Speakership. The
following article, which we take entire from The
Esion of the 10th inst, will indicate upon what
sort of Buneon,be that delectable paper feeds the
Immortal seventy four"
The OLp GAuRp CAN NEVER SuRRENDER.-In
the present situation of parties, 1t is impossi-
bile to estimate too highly the Importance of the
approaching political contest. Never was n
graver or more vital issue presented to the
American people, than that which must ncrita-
bly, enter into the Presidential canvass OF 1856.
This issue is u,,ion or disu,ioR. We speak not
as an alarmist, but in the honest conviction that
nothing but the triumph of the democratic party
can save the country from an abolition President.
Never were the enemies of the constitution and
Union stronger, more determined, or more favor
I'd hy circumstances, than they will then be-
For years fanaticisul, political, social, and rell-
sious, has left no effort untred to destroy the
constitution and its friends. For this aim they
are marshalling their every man to make one last
great effort. The country and the constitution
have but one hope, but one friend-the demo-
cratic party. 1t battles for no mere party as
cendencv, but for the constitution, In defence
of this noble instrument it enters the contest
Its cause is the cause of the Union-the conSti-
tuition and the Union, one and inseparable. BY
these they have lived; by these they will con
auer or they win fall-for the Old Guard can
never surrender its proud banner! Our cause is
a glorious one, and with proud and willing
heart will every true democrat do battle in it,
The struggle will be fierce, but the victory will
be all the proudcr for that. The hopes OF the
people are in the democracy, and their eyes are
fixed upon them AS they marshal their tried men
for the battle They expect to see every demo-
crat at his post, and ready for action Our enc
mics are harmless while we remain true to our
selves. Dissension and division alone can de-
feat us. These then are the enemies we have
most to guard against. United-of one heart,
Of one mind, and of one taith-the great nation
al Democratic party may defy all the combined
hosts of tanaticism. Now all is bright before us
Each day that comes shows us the old legions
which time and again have done battle in the
good old cause, wheeling into line all eager for
the fray And when the battle signal sounds to
the music of the Union, the glorious old demoe-
racy will bear alott its proud banner in spite of
all its foes combined-tor the Old Guard can

diana Railroasi---A Few Facts.


There has been carried in the cars of the South
ern Road during the past year, 100000 passen-
gers which would be equal to carrying one pas
senger 81 ,lSo,oUo miles, or 2,72o times around
the earth; which at the rate of % miles an hour,
would take $40 years to accomplish, exclusive
OF Sundays.
With all this immense travel. bit one pdSssn-
gei. lost has life: and this one standing upon
the platform while the train was in motion, eX-
preSsly against the rules of the company 1t
will be seen by this that the chance of being killed
considering the fact that some will not obey the
rules, is only equal to one out OF 4900oo, or
once in travelling 81 100000 miles; or once in
travelling =, T2U times around the globe; or IN
travelling $40 wears constantly, except Sundays
at the rate of % miles an hour AT this rate Il
man starting at the birth of our Savior, would
travel overa railway like the Michigan Southern,
at the rate OF loo miles a day, until the present
time without losing his life "by the cars
These facts speak volumes i'll regard to the
speed and safety Of the manner in which the
work of this road has been conducted for the last
wear ...-..
In the CARRYING Of freight, there has been 1885,
600 tons carried on the Road This is equal to
carving one ton 2S, 100000 miles, or one pound
26, 200, 600 miles. The repairs for engines dur
ing the year have cost u cents per mile. Dur
ing the year the passenger trains have run I Ia
o5S miles; freight trains, 4Sl,S9l miles; all
other trains 1853, ls7 miles; making in all l,S52,-
o36 miles; which is equal to running 4,5o7 miles
per day, or once around the globe erery Hte days!
or once and Il half across the Atlantic daily.
From these curious estimates, which we be-
ieve are correct one can see the magnitude of
the operations OF one Of our great railways. No
road in the land can compare with the estimate
of the loss of life. Had the rules Of the Company
been obeyed not single passenger would have
