Discovery OF GOLD MINE ON LONG Is
LAAD.--The Suffolk Times has the follow
ing:
| Last Thursday gold niue was discover
ed on the land of MIR. Robson, about mile
| and half south of Manor Station, in this
county. Some persons were engaged in Dig
ging well, and when they had dug to
the depth of about 25 feet, they came to
a layer of mari, and after digging below this,
they came 10 a streak of>rich looking dirt,
/! time, the water came rushing in upon them,
and they were obliged to ascend to the top
of the ground, without setting the curb
Some of the aforesaid rich dirt was secured,
and upon examination, it is said to be per-
fectly "lousy" with the precious metal. On
Saturday we saw q sample of the dirt, but,
owing to the small quantity, we are unable
to say whether it is really gold or not. We
| have been informed, however by an old Cali
| fornian direct from Manor Station, that the
dirt has been tested by a chemical process
an3 found to contain the pure metal. The
people in The neighborhood are greatly ex
cited in consequence of this new discovery
and we should not be surprised to learn that
the people in that section had all turned out
to dig for the sore"
A FIRE-EATING 'GENTLEM n. The fol-
lowing description of Senator Sumner is taxi
en- from the Richmond South, the organ Vt
Virginia tire-eaters:
'.But one figure head in the [Senate]
Chamber arrests attention in the picture we
have here of the plain looking, substantial.
better order Of American politicians 1t is
that of large, tail Senator who sits near
the main entrance. His posture is one of
the most inimitable conceit, with his head
raised, his eyes elevated and resting on a
pleasant vacancy, his body turned supercili-
ously away from the neighboring Senators,
and without even the least sign of attention to
betray his consideration for anything that is
passing around him. THIS huge coxcomb,
with his hair SO tenderly parted, and his big
white hands SO constantly engaged in strok-
ing himself, still smiling and talking to the
| lckspittles that surround him, is that pamper-
| ed kenmarked hound, Charles Sumner. An
application to the hide would take out the
! lofty airs of martyrdom he affects; it would
purge the conceit Immediately 1t is fair
bet for any one to take, that at the first stroke
of the lash the hound would take refuge unle r
his desk, and lie there yelping for mercy"
! DARK SIDE OF THE PIcruRE OF 1HE INDI-
AN WAR.-E will be observed that the Gwa-
liur force, which was by other people stated
| to be 5000 was lately reduced by the lead
ing journal to 5000. But now they have
beaten Gen. Wyndham, they have suddenly
grown, in the leading article of yesterday. to
5000; while Wyndham's force is summari-
Iy reduced from 5000, in the teegraphic dis
patch to 1900 in the leader.
