important from pixies peak-The Treas
Fl

The Wyandotte Kausas) Gazette of the 18th
says: yesterday ten thousand dollars in gold dust
arrived from Pixies Peak. One man brought in
$4,000 as the result of a few weeks work. A small
boy had $1,000, which he says she dug down and
found" and the little fellow says she get all he
wants."
'These statements are reliable. Parties are daily
returning for winter provisions. A Mr.. Jones' an
old mountsineer, expended $1,000 of the shining
dust in Independence last week. for his return outfit
Mr.. Jones is well known in this vicinity, and being
an old Californian, his statements that the Kansas
mines are far ahead of those of California must be
believed"
Some specimens Of this gold have already reached
this city. Several days ago shown quite a
handful of the scales and dust; and yesterday Mr.
Cook, of the firm of Cook s. Matthews, of this city,
exhibited to US fine specimen. 1t was sent to this
city by Mr.. Cooks brother 1t is a ragged lump
worth about $40, and contains few Jumps of quartz
We are on the eve of an intense gold excitement
in the West. The presence Of large quantities of
the precious material in the neghborhood of Pixies
Peak is now conceded On all sides; and during the
coming winter, thousands Of adventurers from the
Western States will be pouring along the head wa
tiers of the Arkansas river Already several cons
paues have started from this city. By next spring
the rush will be immense from all parts of the Une

THE WANDERING DESPERATE.
..~ix~Wsssssst.N-ss.sy .I:xe.Il-


u At different periods the most distin-
%nished phrcnologists of America have
taveled over the wild regions of the
1buth. western frontier, in order to discov-
illustrations, proofs and new data con-
ected with the foundation and progress
Il their science. The true reason of
fhese occasional explorations was stated
y the writer of this sketch with perfect
Slearness by DR.. Buchanan, of Cincinnati,
khile : making a mental and genealogical
$nrvey of Missouri and Arkansas. That
Eminent psychologist remarked that in
Countries long settled, and therefore sub
Iected to the restraints and trammels of
civilization, all the organs arc more equal
IN developed than in less favored regions,
where the inhabitants are comparatively
5ree from the intangible fetters of law
Ind civil order, and from the still more
powerful tyranny and calling control of
bubble opinion and, as an exemplitica-
Lion, he instanced the singular fact, that
&long the line of the Union, which is for
aver moving with such rapidity towards
Ehe setting sun, as if destined to follow
h around the world, there might be found
greater number of heads with sharp,
Unequal angles and jutting protuberan-
ces, than in. all the other states besides.
Il is such subjects as these-men of
5trongly defined character, amounting
ery often to eccentricity-that the de-
:ipies of Gall delight to study, and point
but triumphantly as living demonstrations
IF their doctrine.
j Indeed, the remote semi-wllderness OF
Me west might be termed literally the
land Of originals, as almost every person
5f note is distinguished by the excessive
|3redominance of one peculiar faculty or
Bassion, which sooner or later becomes
cspotic, and effectually masters the mind
zSearly or quite, to the exclusion OF all
Bebler motives; and frequently the rul-
10 habit of thought and feeling thus
riginated into sort of monomania that
asts with life itself. Its true that many
these individuals are not natives Of
he soil where they abound. They come
kom all countries and climates, from eve.
latitude and longitude of America
Ia Europe. They belong to all trades
Ia professions, and many of them have
lifted their calling and mode of life as
len as they have changed their habita
b. They are attracted to the frontier
q so much by any innate prediction
vice, as by their instructive and un
nquerable love Of freedom. They have
own weary with unceasing work in th'
terlasting treadmill Of society. Thei
pls have sickened with the superficial
aims and courtesies which are exactet
"a paid by mutual hypocricies in tha
orld, known under the name of Fashion
"a which is in such self-evident opposi

DEEP x1H1Ne-AN UNSUCCESSFUL sw1EDLE

DEEP EINING-hN SW1NDLE
Hon. CHARLES BRAcKEs and JAMES
EARNEST, their particular friends and sore
heads, lately undertook to work bill
through the legislature ar propriating slo.-
COO year for three years, to. experiment
at deep min,rg in the lower m'gnesian
lime rock. The bill! rightly failed, whet-
upon Chorles became eDragsd and i'm
.nsaiately presented a till for an act to
forever separate Iowa, Lafayet apdGrant
Coun.ies, known =. the lead district, fion
tie res. OF tie State and to cede the same
back to the Federal Government with he
view OF having Congress erect said mining
region into separate, free and iudepen-
dent State Sovereignty, to be- called PEW
AB1o, which, being interpreted from the
Chippewa language means metal OF mar
ierol. The said Hon. Charles also EMU
meFat-d lie: Of wrongs to the mining re-
lgion as long As bill IN chancery, IN
Guiding an allegation that Iowa, Lafayette
and Grant Counties had never received
any appropriations, while other parts of the
State got ali IT, wanted.
Now we happen 20 kr ow that almost
every practical miner hsa about as much
faith in deep mining a, he has in do@sing
for mineral. and that. every instance Of
deep mining has proved failure and the
deeper the more total the failure. We
happen also to know that people of the
lead region are perfectly satisfied to stay
in Wisconsin and that they are opposed to
secession and dist MON; Furthermore, tina,
they have never asked or desired any ap-
preparation for they are able to live with.
out begging or charity from any quarter
and always expect to paddle their own
canoe. We have Noticed for long tune
m understanding in Iowa and Lafayette
counties to get, possession Of an appropria
ton from the State to carry. on deep min
ling, under pretense Of aiding the mining
interest, but really, to replsnish the ex'
hausted treasures Of few spectators or
section number thirty-seven. Grant Co.
don't beg and never will secede, and we
hope the legislature will never appropriate
a dollar of corruption 20 the people Of the
mines.
