the true Democratic faith, and fast friend

The FUTURE OF MINING TowNs.-The fu-
ture of towns built in the mining region of
California is problem that has elected Sc
rious thought on the part of men doing bus
mess here, who, however shrewd in other
respects, seem to be unable to solve this ques-
ton satisfactorily 1t would be useless for us
to deny that many persons entertain serious
apprehensions at to the permanency of these
interior towns, grounding their doubts on the
probable exhaustion of the placers, which
may be regarded as an inevitable occurrence
to ensue sooner or later from the countless
washings and re washings of the gold bearing
dirt which is being carried on. We do not,
however, regard that period as being so near
at hand as the apprehensions of timid people
would fix it. 1t will take many scores OF
years yet to exhaust our almost illimitable
placers; and many who are now young will
see gold bearing dirt passing through sluices
laid along all hill-sdes, when their hair shall
have grown gray. This is our conviction as
regards placer mining.
In rejecting on the probable future of min
ing towns, we should not lose sight of the
existence of other resources besides placers
the development of which is destined to have
some influence on their prosperity. The nu
/ mefOuS quartz lOdeS winch olTelcH through
the whole length of this great chain of noun
tains, contiguous to the placers, and whicl
in many instances have already been founc
to be richly gold-bearing, will undoubtedly
in the course of time, afford as profitable
field for labor as the placers have in time,
past. Then we have an extensive lumber re
! gion to the eastward of us, which stretche,
| in a regular belt along the slopes of the Sier
ra. Besides our hills also afford inexhaus
tible quarries of building stone, such as lime
stone, marble. granite, etc, material to adorr
our cities with palaces.
If the resources above enumerated fail us,
have we not fruitful soil and genial climate
and have not experiments demonstrated that
both are admirably adapted to the culture o
fruit? Have not vegetable productions Of ev
erv kind thrived where the experiment o
their cultivation has been essayed on the sol
of this region? Then, what have we to fear
For our part, we believe that, in the cours
of time, every valley and hill side of thu
mining countries, even to the mountain tops
willing be converted into vineyards, whos'
vines will be dropping with the weight o
their rich fruit, to be gathered and made intC
wine, an article which will find a market
anywhere throughout the world. In fact, il
is nonsense to talk of the decay of the min
ing towns, in full view of the matchless ad
vantages placed within our reach.-Sonorc

RAwHIDE RoPEs-A new style of rope is
coming into use for mining purposes 1t is
manufactured by Seybert d Shaw-the lat.
er formerly resident Of this city--at their
rope mandatory between Grass Valley and
Nevada. 1t is made of rawhide, and is par
tcularly useful in shaft mining where large
weignss are to be drawn up from great depths
to the surface. 1t is made of strands of raw
hide, plated together, and its main virtue
consists in the fact that the strands are cut to
almost any length desired, thus avoiding
splicing. Each strand being cut in ring
around the hide, SO that one hide makes one
strand. Messrs. Seybert & Shaw sold one Of
these ropes recently to shaft company
which was eight hundred feet in length, each
strand (there being some fifteen or twenty Of
them) beng Of the same length, and conse-
quently not single flaw or splice in the
whole extent This rope they sold for S400
thus making the cost at the rate of so cents
foot. This kind Of rope IS undoubtedly {
great desideratum in the mines, where 81
much danger is incurred from ropes break
ing, and combines pliability with an almos
Inconceiysble amount Of strength.
