IMPROVEMENT IN QrAKTz Mill MAcHixEsy--A
CAIIFoRNrA INVENTION. Messrs. Goddard 4 Co.'s
Pacific Fourdry First street, between Mission and
Howard SAYS the BULLETIN we witnessed the trial Of
new improvement in quartz mill machinery for which
patent has been obtained by VIM. II. Howland
practical quartz miner. 1t was at first intended to
have exhibited the machine at the Mechanic Fair,
but the engine which drives the machinery there
not Of sufficient power to drive the mill to advantage
We found quite number Of persons present who
were interested in The crushing Of quartz all of whom
we're highly delighted with the improvement. One Of
these informed that he had just shipped from San
Francisco n mill which had cost him $l2 900, and he
considered Mr.. Howland's improvement possessed ad
vaniagcs which cxceled any at present In use. The
mill now exhibited consists of eight round stamps.
weighing 500 pounds each, occupying space Of 81
feet diameter. The morter or bed plate is circular.
with an upright post cast in the centre abont three
feet high The top of this post is the foot or step Of
an upright shaft, npon which is placed revolving
cam which lifts the stamps the pinciple Of screw.
The placed around the morter, giving one
third dschagng surface than the ordinary mills.
The principle of crushing the rock is the same as the
mills now in use. The stamps can be increased to any
desired number or weight.
The great advantages of Howlands Improvement
consists in the saving of expense and delay in erect
ing the mill 1t can be built for less than onehalf Of
the cost Of ordinary mills now in use f; is entirely Of
iron and can be put up in working order by two men
in day. Quartz veins being generally in hilly
localities, great expense of money and consumption
of time is incurred in eveng the grounds and build
ing of frame work. 1t also be taken to pieces in
few hours and transported with ease. The force re-
quired % drive it is onesrd less than that generally
used. Those who are interested in quartz mining can
have an opportunity to see the machine in operation.

HoRNIros.-T weather still continues very
warm and there have been few arrivals of mi
ncrs. The springs in the neighborhood arc
gradually on the increase and this, it is said,
is sure indication of an early and wet win
ter. The limbs of the oak trees in the vicinity
are hung with an abundant crop of acorns,
which has not been the case for several years,
and this is said to be another foreshadowing Of
wet winter Any one who takes but cur.
sorry view of the rapid and permanent improve
ments that have taken place in our town du-
ring the summer months, must admit that we
are fast progressing in the way of large fire

when some one stabbed him in the breast, the
knife scraping the brcastbone and then enter

in the breast. Mr.. Thompson, Constable, was
passing by at the time, when Domingo cried in
clear and distinct voice, "Thompson, that
Chleno has killed me- at the same time point
ing out the man with his extended arms. Five
minutes after this Domingo was a corpse
Mr.. Thompson arrested the Chileno and kept
him prisoner until after the sitting of the
Coroner's jury, when he was discharged on
Sunday evening Below will be found the
verdict of the Coroncr's jury. Many witness
es were examined by the jurymen, but no.
thing in the way ofrelabc evidence could be
obtained from any Of the witnesses The muir
der, most barbarous and cold-bloodcd af
fair, was committed in the presence Of many
Mexcans and Chilenos, and yet not one single
Mexican or Chileno could be induced under
threats or otherwise, to reveal any Of the facts
pertaining to the crime. A few such bloody
deeds in our midst and affairs may take a diff
ferent turn than the Chilenos may expect.
The following verdict was returned by the
Coroner's jury Domingo Morales, the dcceas-
ed, came to his death by some person or per-
sons unknown to MS, by stab from knife or

California Goal

Of the Coal deposits near Orovile, the
editor of the California Farmer savs:-The
California Company commenced tunneing
about two years since, and after prospecting
carefully, laid their plan; and, at the present
time, their tunnels for drainage extend over
600 feet into the mountain connecting with
their best leads, which now extend over 500
feet in the veins from which they are mining
out very excellent quality of coal, although
we do not think that they have yet struck
the best veins by any means. We saw, at
several places, samples Of their coal in use
burning freely and giving evidence Of good
quality. The Company have several build
ings already erected. The coal depot con-
tans some 200 tons of coal ready for mar
ket, which brings SIC per ton at Oroville.
The company have expended about $50 900.
What is now wanted for this enterprise is
more capital to build railroad to Oroville,
and measures adopted to open deeper into
the mountains, and obtain richer veins.
This company is now organized fully, and the
following are the officers: L. G. Hammond,
President; j. G. Yudell, Secretary; T. S.
Warden, Treasurer; J. +. Martin, j. Chit
tie, Directors Of Mines.

What Does it Mean.

There is, says the Cincinnati Times, an
unusual activity in each Of the United
States Navy Yards, from Maine to Louisiana
Nearly all the reserved vessels of war are
being fitted for sea with great dispatch.
The Mississippi, which was to have assisted
in laying down the submarine cable, has
been ordered to the West Indies, together
with the new propeller Minnesota, and the
sloop-of-war Germantown. The Powhatan,
the Colorado, the Roanoke, steam frigates,
and the sloops Marion and Perry, have also
received orders to prepare instantly for sea.
Five war steamers and three sloops, eXcu
sive of the regular African squadron, (Which
is soon to sail,) forms very formidable ma
val force, and the American people, naturally
of an inquiring disposition, would like to
know the reason of this warlike preparation.
The telegraphic dispatches bring us bit Of
information which make us suspect that the
keels of these ships will soon ride upon the
waves which wash the shores Of Mexico,
The dispatches from Europe states that the
first division Of the Spanish expedition
against Mexico sailed on the 28th of March,
to rendezvous at Havana. We imagine that
it is to watch this Spanish expedition that
our war steamers are ordered into the West
India waters. 1t will not add any to the
peace of mind of the valorous Dons to dis
cover the muzzles of those ten-inch shell
guns watching every movement ''with fever
sh lips" as though anxious to exchange a
few compliments, in the shape of hard and
hollow ware The Mexicans boast that they
have the guaranteed aid of the Unto States
and openly defy the Spaniarls Things look
suspicious. II Spain goes to war with Mex
leo, she may lose Cuba. Depend upon it,
