OREGON ELECTIoN.-At the recent election in
Oregon the Americans elected seven members of
Assembly, and the Democrats seventeen. Last year.
we believe, the Knownothngs did not elect cand
date in the entire TeTitory-not more than two, at
most The Democracy of California should have
kept the Oregonians better posted in political mat
ters. They didn't know that the Knownothing party
had handed in its checks and become defunct The
Oregon people were somewhat slow to appreciate the
Importance of an American organization, but their
hardness is an omen of good. They have now seen
the evidences for and against the organization and
when they have once settled in favor of American
rule in America, they will be reliable.

GEORGETOWN Correspondence.
GEORGETOWN, June 25th, 1856.

GEORGETOWN June 10Th, 1896.
EDITORS ARGUS To persons who may pass
through the northern part of Ell Dorado county, and
more especially this vicinity, it may indeed seem dull
And from the many daily complaints that are made
the complaints But to those who have been here
since 80, and who have before heard the same mur-
muring, very different cast is given. There is a
class who always complain and talk against the
country and they are those who work least and
know least about the country, and its resources.
To the working man, there never was more
promising time than the present The mines are now
well supplied with water, and at low rates. The
mines are inexhaustible The rich leads are in the
hills and rivers and while it is true that many of the
most available places now considered either owned
and being worked, or are abandoned as worthless,
yet who is so blind as not to see the most cheering
prospects ahead for good wages, at least In many
places the miners preparing for renewed effort
to get their "pile,' and from the amount of work
done and the general preparation it is safe to predict
larger yield Of gold than during any preceding year
The Middle Fork of the American River is being
worked from the junction till above Last chance
distance of 80 miles. The preparations are such and
so well systematized, that they cannot fail In many
places the river is fumed for miles. Alex Rock says
that he has just made survey from Yankee Bar
down for mile and half The fume to be con-
nected the entire distance, to be 16 feet wide and
three feet in depth, which will drain the entire river
and furnish labor for several thousands of men,
Then there is Cation Creek to be worked very
thoroughly, also Rock Cation, Otter Creek, John
town Creek and many other streams. Then there
are the hills, most of which are paying well, viz
Mamauke, Cement, Bottle Hill. Jones'Hill, Vol
canoville, Spanish Dry Diggings, and last, though
not least, the diggings lately opened little south
from Georgetown, where some $4,000 were taken out
Of small hole. The mines are not as yet worked
out-so cheer up, brother miner, and try more.
There is every inducement also to the farmer, for
enough has been done to prove the soil good for
small grain ard vegetables, and fruits of all kinds
that grow in this latitude The following persons
have very fine crops of oats, wheat and barley,
Georgetown: Rock, oats Chitwood, oats Jenkins,
wheat OATS and barley Clark wheat and oats ;
BiXby, oats and barley Richardson, oats and many
Others whose names do not remember, have greater
or less crops, which being reaped, and in
quality very good. X.
