James LOag Esq Mr.. West Mr.. Drumond and
several other gentlemen from Shasta, arrived in
Town last Evening. Their object we understand
is TO organize an Odd-Felows Lodge, in Weaver
vile. Holy and benevolent mission gentlemen,
wish you large and worthy accessons. Many
of our citizens went out to meet them on horse
back. and accompanied them into our hospitable
Town, with smiles of welcome.
Messrs A. JacOby, Mr. Mallett and W. c. Mar
tin, arrived in our town on Wednesday morn
ing, from Humboldt Bay. We learn through Mr..
Martin that business is quite fOurishng at the
Bay. The Mills are running night and day. The
mines in the vicinity of Union are yielding well.
In another place will be found the letter of Mr..
Jacoby one of the gentlemen named above, in
reference to the new route to Humboldt Bay, and
its facilities for transportation.

The Circus.

What is life without little worldly pleasure
Since our last issue our mountain town has been
one of the gayest spots on earth. Rowe Co.'S
Circus condensed, night after night, in the big
tent on the fiat below town, a large mass of our
citizens to witness their feats of hOrsemanship
and Gymnastics.
This is the first circus that has ventured into the
isolated regions of Northern California. Every
one appears to have been well pleased with the
performances. The enterprising Managers, Messrs.
Smith d Rowe, have, we are glad to learn, real
lied much more than they had hoped for.
The witty Frenchman (ClOwD,) immortalized
some of our old and venerable salOon-keepers in
his humorous hits. After all we incline to the be-
lief that Clown should be gentleman Of edu
cation and refined wit, Mere vulgar testers for

Senator Ferguson.

The Hon. W. /. Ferguson was elected to the
State Senate from Sacramento County, last Fall,
by the American party. He served last winter
in that body with great credit to himself and hon.
OF to the party who elected him.
Mr.. Ferguson is a man Of fine talent and done
the State good service by faithful discharge of
his Senatorial duties. We had the pleasure of be-
ing present in The Senate Chamber when he pro-
nounced that most bitter and brilliant philippe
upon the head of Senator Flint, from San Fran
cisco, who deserted the American party during
the crisis of the Senatorial contest
II Mr.. Flint changed his views through an hon
est conviction that be had been wrong, he had a
so now has Mr.. Ferguson, though the latter gen
tleman said in his speech at the great Democratic
Ratification, in front of the Orleans Hotel, in
Sacramento, on the 23d inst, that he intended to
vote for two American United States Senators, or
resign in time to give the party an opportunity
to elect person in his place. Now it can't be
possible that the existence and success Of the great
Democratic or the great American parties depend
upon the support and adherance Of any one, two
or three individuals We hear every day of such
man going to the Democracy from the Amer-
can party, and such man going to the American
from the Democracy. And half the time these
vascilating gentlemen are mere obscure individu-
ais. who are only known to heir next door neigh
bors or bar-room companions But nevertheless
great notoriety is given to it. The little parti
zan fash sheets, published below, either boil over
with joy, or sink cold with sorrow. We consider
the instance of these remarks as mere trfe.

Among the black list which we have pub
lshed from time to time, as the Committee
put their seal of condemnation upon persons
in our midst, we find several names of per
sons that have managed by some means to
enjoy the emoluments and houors Of various
official positions in our city and State.
So far as we can recollect, they are as
follows
John McDouga, Lieut. Governor in 1850
and Governor III 1851.
u. T. Herbert, member of the Assembly
in 1852, and member of Congress now.
Edward McGowan, Justice of the Peace
Associate Judge of the Court of Sessions OF
San Francisco, and Commissioner of Emf
grafton.
j. w. Bagley, member of the Assembly
in 1853.
C.P. Duane, Chief Engineer of the San
Francisco Fire Department, once by his sue
cession to fill vacancy, and twice elected.
James p. Casey, Deputy County Treasur
er for two years, to do nothing but receive
his salary. Member of the Board of Super.
visors, and Inspector of Elections aA tn
time.
VIM. MulIigan, Collector of State and
County Licenses, and Deputy Sheriff OF

Billy Carr, member Of the Charter Con

of the First ward polls.
Martin Gallagher, frequently Judge ol
Elections in the First Ward.
VIM Lewis, ditto.
Terrence Kelley, Judge of Election at the
Preside.
James Cussck, Judge of Election of the
Sixth Ward
How is it possible that the people ot
California have allowed themselves to be
thus imposed upon? Citizens of San Fran
cisco and of the State, will you longer give
your support to such ruliians Or will you
not, at the approaching election, rouse from
your lethargy aud dspel the apathy that
has heretofore characterized your conduct
and declare in your might that you will
have these men to rule over you no longer
We well believe you will. We believe the
day of redemption is near at hand, aud that
the bright day of reform already dawuS
upon us. Let each man to his post, then
at the approaching campaign, and see Ia il
that men and not hings-the tools VI your

Freight 70 Weaverville.

We call the attention of our merchants and ira
ders to the following letter, addressed to the ed
itor of the Humboldt Times. If the road is a
good one il offers better facilities for transport
ing goods to this place than by the Sacramento
Valley, and must prove advantageous to our min
ing population, as it will necessarily lessen the
price and cost of all articles of consumption.
Mr. VAN DYKE Il am authorized by two gen
tlemen of this place to submit the following prop
osition to those who may wish to freight goods to
Weaverville by way of this place To pack gen
eral merchandise from here to Weaverville at the
rate of four cents per pound providing they can
be furnished with at least 80, 900 pounds per
month regularly The gentlemen own large
train. and are experienced packers, and am will
ling to endorse them as responsible to carry out
the above proposition should any parties see fit
to enter into a contract with them to that effect
Thinking, perhaps, that it might be of interest to
the merchants up country to know at what rates
they can get their goods by onr place over the
new trail, have given you the above for publ
! cation. A. JACOBY.

TRINITY RIVER, August "a, 1856.
MEssRs Curtis Il GoRDoN,-Sirs Having trav-
elled through, within the last week. a rich coun-
try in mineral and agricultural resources, thO't
a few lines description of the same would be of
some interest to the readers of your invaluable
paper
The lower portion of Trinity River ere long is
bound to become one of the most important points
in the mining portion of State. and for agri-
cultural resources is no wise in the rear. Almost
daily, rich deposits are discovered. many of which
pay from $50 to Sl00 per day to the hand, and
still think there is no part of California which
since the discovery of gold has received so little
! attention. We might commence at Little Prai-
rie. The claim of Penny & Co., in the last week
has paid $1,000 for the labor of three hands aud
follow down the stream to Dxons Bar and find
that nearly all are doing equally well though to
strangers they are unwilling to acknowledge they
are making more than s5 to $40 per day to the
man.
At Burnt Ranch saw my old acquaintances
in good heart, enjoying many Injuries which are
not common in our mountain country. Even
Weavcrvile seldom sees the like"
From there to the head of New River, (Which
is certainly the butt of Trinity County if not of
California; a distance of about so miles has been
almost unnoticed and nearly every thing saw
reminded me Of earlier days in California life
Owing to the roughness of the surrounding cOun-
try this stream has remained almost unworked,
though some very rich claims have been worked,
and many fattering prospects of coarse gold have
been taken from the banks and bed of the river
The population will not exceed one man to the
mile, though think should our Hon. b. of S. ap-
point a road overseer, that few hundred dollars
could be expended to quite as great advantage as
in any other part of the County, and the trail
which now seems to strike terror to the traveller
might be made one of ease and facility, and what
is now almost unnoticed would be the support of
hundreds, many of whom would reap rich re-
ward for their labors.
The waters of this stream are only separated
from those of the North Fork of Trinity and the
Salmon by single dividing ridge, which, owing
to the almost perpendicular ascent is but seldom
traversed, except by the Indians.
Yours, j. W.

MEssRs. CURTIS 4 GORDON We arrived at THIS
place (from weaver.) on the 18th inst, and be-
lieving you would like to hear what was going on
in these parts, we shall give you few lines
The river claims are just fairly opened, and al
most all the companies are doing extremely we'll
Some of them are taking out from one to two
thousand dollars per day and nearly all from
three to four hundred Nearly the entire bed OF
the river is being worked from this place to the
Klamath In the space of two miles and half
there are ninety wheels in full operation, the ow-
ners of which are taking out their "piles." Ma
ny of these claims have been worked for two or
three years.
There Is qnite number of drift claims in this
vicinity, but the most of them can only be work
ed to put in pump in order to drain them, so
that when the river rises the miners are nearly all
thrown out of employment,
The Democrats here held Ratification meeting
last Saturday evening, but the speaking was very
poor. The speaker spoke of Fillmores being
nominated in June, and of the Republican Con
vention being held in New York, and many other
similar blunders. He stated that the Democracy
had not promised to do anything for the Pacific
Rail Road. but that he belieGed that they were in
favor of it, The Democracy seemed to be rather
lukewarm.
Our town presents lively spectacle in the eve
ming, for many of the miners after their days
work is over, resort to the various saloons, and
spend the evening in drinking whiskey and dan
cling with the courtezans.
The are great many strangers coming in here
daily, but as it is rather late to commence opera
tions in the river, many of them leave after stay
ing few days. Some of them, however, buy
claims or get employment. Wages are five dol.
lars per day.

MINING ON THE MERGED Mining, re-
marks the Mariposa Gazette, is being car
rled on more extensively, with greater ad-
yantages, upon the Merced river than ever
before. The low stage of water is unprece-
dented, Many miners have got into their
claims, and are doing well, but we are not
informed of any particular " strikes" having
been made. Without doubt, more gold will
be taken from the river this year, than any
season before The Messers Boring L.
Crenshaw have succeeded in raising water
upon Washington Flat, by means of large
pump, worked by wheel placed opposite the
Flat, in the river. The stream is amply
sufficient for their own use, and from present
appearances, they will be amply rewarded
for their energy and enterprise. They are
now engaged in washing off top dirt by
means of hydraulic power and even this is
paying very handsomely From $50 to $50
per day, we are told, is the average of six
hands employed.
One of the largest nuggets of pure gold
yet discovered in this State was found near
Hornitas recently by a Chinaman named
Lew Tow 1t weighed "a pounds, and is
worth something over $4,000 John"

doubtless from thence to the Flowery King
dom. as almost all of his kind do when they

UNION OF THE MISSISSIPPI AND THE LAKES.
A correspondent of the New York Tribune
writes from Green Bay, Wisconsin, under
the date of the 18th of July, that the first
boat from the Mississippi, :he steamer
Aquilla, from Pitshnrg, came down the day
before from Lake Winnebago, working her
way through the canal and locks Just COM
peted, round the numerous rapids of the
Lower Fox, and at five o'clock P. NJ. bathed
her PROV in the cool waters of Lake Michi-
gan. This event is justly regarded by the
people of that region as one of the most
important in the history of the Northwest.

JOY OF A NIL EK.--ll llt lDuJJc ItctOTu Su1o.
The Nicaragua company got at the spot
where it lay thick on Thursday last, and of
course had but two, or two days and halt
to work, and not being fixed to work to ad
vantage, as everything was new, machinery
incomplete, and many other drawbacks
which are understood by practical miners
only. They, however, have no particular
cause to complain at this prospect, having
taken out 81 .020 of most beautiful gold.-
One of the shareholders, who had mined
without success for three years, on seeing
the truck glsten in the pan when cleaning
up, was so overjoyed that he could hardly
restrain himself in fact, would not stand
the punishment, until he had cut loose from
this world for few minutes, by throwing
five or six somersets backwards and for
wards, which relieved him materially, as the
last turn came near breaking his neck

We are Informed by Mr.. Moses ChadbOurne that
the miners are constructing race for the purpose
of carrying the waters of Swift Creek into the
diggings in the vicinity of Cbadbourne's Ranch.
The race will be about six miles long, and of suf-

ter. 1t will be completed by the first of October.
The degings are good, and the yield very regu-
lar, and with plenty of water will pay ten dollars
day to the hand.
