The infanny Of SpirituaEisnG.

Another of the infamous tendencies
of sp'ritualism has just been revealed
in New York. 1t appears that some
five years ago, boy named Phillips,
fifteen years ofaec, was found suspend.
I'd f,om tree by . rope around his
neck, and no Supicion of wrong b"iu-
entertained. his death was attributed 70
suicide, and ne ~as quietly buried III
the grave yard at Nassau, few mics
from Troy. \ few weeks ago, at
spiritual circle, some one asked II the
spirit Of the almost forgotten boy was
present, and was Immediately answer
ed in the tfirmtlive. Ii was asked if
he committed suicid ; when through
the medium came the answer, that on
an uniorluuatc occasion, he had come
to the knowlrdge that his own IN tacr
was in the habit OF having crimin ! IN.
tcrcoursr with perspn whom he nam.
ed. and further, that to prevent his di-
vuIglng the fact to bis fathcr, she came
upon him in his sleep, and d owe nail
into his head, killing him instantly,
and that she carried his body and hung
it to a tree. The community was
tarlled.
\ dozcn other 'circies' were consult.
ed, and told the same story. Tne ex-
citcmcnt was 50 high that the coroner
was forced to disintcr the skeleton Of
the boy, and cXAmtn ,tIon of it proved
the whole story base fabrication.
The poor mother so fouIly suspected,
has had her fair lame vindichted from
the double calumny, but, ala, so great
has been the shock tnat she IS prO,trat-
ed on Il bed of sickness, from which
she wall probably never rise. What
would be toe severe for
those who nnder the guiSe Of spiritual
ism, tampei thus with the honor and
lives Of innocent people.

Loss OF STEAMER on THE WILLAMETTE nv.
ER-The river steamer Portland, running on ~
Upper Willamette, between the Falls and Dav-
ton, went over the Falls near the Linn C1exs
Warehouse, about five o'clock on the afternoo~|
of Thursday the 18th March. The Portlan6
Times says of the event:
It appears that the rudder had got out of order
some twenty miles above and it had been TEN
porarily fixed. The boat had landed her passen.
rers at Canemah. The engineer, Mr. Jamicson.
brother of the Captain, went ashore at Canemah
to get some irons fitted for the rudder. In the
meantime Capt. Arthur Jameson, fireman CALI
cd Dutch Peter and deck hand named Bell
started over to land some freight at the Linn
CITY Mills on the opposite side of the river
Having discharged her freight at this point. she
started back for the Canemah landing, on the.
east side of the river, when, getting into the
strong current and becoming unmanageble, she
was forced over the Falls, despite Of all exc.
tions to save her When near the point of going
over the Falls, Peter the fireman was thrown or
Jumped off the deck into the water, and clung to
a rock till he saw log, which he reached, and
was rescued by rope thrown him. Capt JAM
ieson. at This juncture, jumped from the forward
deck into the water waist high, but the CURRENT
being too strong in few seconds carried him
over the Falls The deck hand, Bell, also is re-
ported to have jumped over about the same
time and was carried over the Falls also d
The bodies of the deceased have not been re-
covered at the latest dates. The steamer went
over the Falls, we learn, nearly stern foremost
she broke in two on the timbers-and went into

Letter from Sacramento.

SACRAMENTO, April 2lst, 1857,
Editors JomnaI:-Tbe Legislative taper as it
hickers in its last hours, burns brightest.
Tho Legislature is about to make the effort to
accomplish in week what they have failed to
accomplish in nearly four months.
On the 18th inst. meeting OF the members
from the various mining counties was called in
the Assembly Hall, for the purpose Of ascertain
ing the views Of members with regard to taxing
mining claims 1t ended in smoke as but few at
tended the meeting.
The Senate passed the Assembly resolution on
the 10th inst which fixes the day of adjournment
sine die on the 9th inst. II they get through by
the first Monday in May il is more than sensible
people think they will do.
A very stringent gambling bill passed the SEN
ate, and is now in the Assembly. There is no
telling what its fate will be. 1t makes the per-
son who keeps bank game, or deals cards guilty
of feeny and subjects him to imprisonment in
the State Prison for term Of two years. and a
fine of not exceeding five thousand dollars.-
Money and outside influence is operating strongly
against its passage in the lower House.
The State Prison Bill introduced by Mr.. Burch.
or rather the substitute. was under discussion on
Thursday last If this Bill should become a law,
and contract made under its provisions. it will
save the State seventy.five thousand dollars per
annum.
The Bill which passed the Assembly in the be-
pay of members and attaches Of the Legislature,
was killed on Saturday in the Senate. Again the
cry Of reform proves to be in the California def
milton, humbug! The people of California love
this political humbugery. Just wait about four
months until the campaign sets in, at which time
all the old political whiskey bloats who feed upon
the pickings that drop from the public crib start
out to talk to the honest miners" 1t will all
be explained satisfactorily.
The Bill creating lobby member commissioners
to attend the sessions of Congress for the purpose
of procuring the restitution of the civil fund to
this State, which amounts to over two million Of
dollars, was buried, as it should be. What are
members of Congress from California sent to
Washington for? What does California send U.
S. Senators to Washington for? To sit silent
in their seats and let lobby members do their
work think not, and those who voted against
the Bill thought the same. Col Weller is grow
ing more in favor every day as the probable can
ddate for Governor RlcHELIEU.

The Trinity Range.

The scope of country traversed by the Trinity
mountains seems to be impregnated with gold
throughout its entire extent Along the northern
rs we'll as the southern slope of these mountains,
new deposits are constantly being discovered, as
the work of prospecting them is continued. AT
numerous points on the North Fork of Trinity
river, on Indian creek, Browns creek, and vari-
ous other places within the limits Of this county,
there are large numbers of miners at work who
are being well remunerated for their labois. On
the other side of the summit, the diggngs on
French Gulch, Whskey Creek, and at Horsetown,
have long been known as amongst the richest in
Northern California. In fact there is scarcely a
ravine running down from this range OF noun
tains, outki her side. in which gold has not been
discoy At Arbucklc, Red Guch. Watson
Gulcl md other places in that vicinity, the
scarcity of waller has hitherto prevented the miner
from fully testing the character OF the dlggings.
When, however, a supply of water could be had.
gold has been obtained in considerable quantities,
and of very superior quality.
James Howe, Esq. is about bringing the waters
Of another stream into his ditch at Arbucklc,
which will afford supply Of water the entire
year, and be Of infinite service to the miners in
that neighborhood The immense quantities OF
quartz cropping out Of the mountain spurs, to-
by the surface of the ground, have led to the in
ference that rich hill dggings will be opened up
in that section Of country at an early day. In
some places the deep banks Of red dirt very
much resemble the diggings around Yankee Jim's
and other favored mining localities so well known
in the Middle Mines. The bed rock is frequently
OF the species called phyllades or soft shelly rock
in which gold is often found to the depth OF
eighteen inches. Many seams are found running
through this rock sometimes to the depth of three
~ four feet, and great care is required in clean
ing il up. A large portion of the territory on
both sides of the Trinity mountains has never yet
been prospcctcd, and no locality in this section OF
the State presents more inviting field to those
in search OF diggings. The treasures of millions
Of acres are patiently waiting to be brought to
light by the pick and shovel OF the enterprising
miner The country drained by the South Fork
of Trinity river has the appearance of a rich
gold bearing region, yet it has never been pros
pected. Small but beautiful spccimenslave fre-
qucntly been picked up byHuntcrsfn that .vicini-
ty, and the Indians are constantly bringing dust
to the neighboring trading posts, which they OBJ
tanned on the branches Of the same stream. BE
sides this, there are many other streams oifcri
equal If not greater inducements to prospecting
parties while at the same time they are free from
the difficulties and dangers attendant on expedi-
tions to distant and unknown places.

the overland emigrants bound for California and
Oregon. Orders have been issued for the 4th
Infantry, now stationed in Oregon, to move a
