LOCAL NEWS

Rev. W. H. Claiming preached twice yester-
day in Dr. Hills church to full congregations.
In the morning his text was: In Him we live,
and move, and have our being" and the subject
was the miracle of life"-life in the individual.
the nation, and church. He unfolded it with
rare eloquence and ability; and speaking. as he
did, without notes his words received fresh vital
ity from his own participation in the quick sym
pathes of his hearers.
He illustrated some of his views by striking
references to Humboldt, as a living exempler of
fidelity to his own ideal to Milton, as the patti
OF; and to Wesley, the saint.
Ia the afternoon his subject was, the church
universal, from the text, "One faith, one bap-
tism, one Father of all" He presented the ideas
of the Roman Cath Ole, the Evangelical Protest
ant, and the liberal churches. The same catho
icity of spirit and the same comprehensiveness of
view which marked the morning discourse, dis
tinguished this. A congregation which has had
the services of such man as James Martineau
may reasonably be expected to appreciate such
culture and such gifts are possessed by this
preacher.

The case of the slaves of Senator Gwin,
about which the Black Republicans whincd so
much, in which he was sued by them for labor
in this State, has been decided against the ne
groes b. Judge Norton, upon the ground that
the labor was voluntary, and they had made no
claim to wages or compensat .on-had been fed
and clothed,-they could claim no wages when
vo UNFAIRLY remaining, than could children de-
mand pay for services of their parents when
remaining with them after their majority. The
niggcr-worshppers thought they would ruin
Gwin by inducing his negroes to bring suit
against him. but they have most signally failed.
The trick was too shallow 10 deceive the most
ignorant. For years they have waged vim
dctive war against him, terccly assaied his
private character, and charged him with every
species of corruption, simply because he has
disdained to court their favor or notice the
howlings Of the base pack. They hate him, he
despises them, and the Democracy esteem him
all the more for his unrelenting hostility to the
Black Republicans.

Rich QrAnTz.-Wc were shown the other
evening omcspccimcns ofgold bearing quartz,
taken from a lede lately discovered by Mcssrs.
Miller, Hall Co, of extraordinary richness.
The specimens offered for our inspection, we
are assured. were but fair average of the
rock contained in the lead, so far as it has vet
been prospected. TwoOrdinary pansful of this
rock yielded four hundred dollars And they
ere confident that us they progress, they will
fnd it equally as good, if not better, than that
already taken out. 1t is located at the head of
Monte ravinc, in the vicinity of Poverty Point,
about three quarters Of a mile nOrth-wcs: Of
our city, and they have traced it thus far about
sixty feet in length, near the surface of the
ground. 1t varies in width from one to six
inches, and appears to bc accompanied, on
either side, by a well defined lode somewhat
greater in thickness near the central one, and
not more than six feet apart. 1t is very prob
able that these are but spurs, or angles, and at
few feet from the surface. fuse into ono dis
tinct lode. We are informed by MesSrs. NJ. &
H. that they find sufficient gold in the rock ta-
ken from them TO justify working and from
their singular and close vicinity to the main
lead no additional labor will be required to cx-
tract it, rs one tunnel will embrace them all.
This discovery is another proof of the i'm
menSe quartz resources of our county, and
will give additional impetus and activity to
that important species of enterprise. 1t is our
conviction, and every day strengthens it, that
mining, especially quartz mining, is vet but in
Its infancy. Developments are just beginning
N be mndc,-we are just reaching the thrcsli-
hold. Ell Dorado county is complete net work
Of quartz lodcs, unsurpassed either for extent
or richness. AS yet they are scarcely touched,
but these wonderful and permanent sources of
wealth will not long escape the vigilance and
enterprise Of our Industrious miners and sen
siblc capitalists. .-.------

ROBBERY AND ARREST OF TIE RoBBER.-A

iStered his name as Aren't, entered the bed

perceived large trunk, the property of the
proprietor. He carried it up on the summit of
the hill near town where, having previously
provided himself with n pick, he broke open
the trunk and extracted everything of value it
contained. He made good haul. The trunk
contained one hundred and twenty -four dollars
in cash, gold watch and two gold chains
worth $3.50; gold specimen and gold Ma

DETENTION oY TIE MAIL.-We are for the
third time under the necessity of complaining
Of the nOn-arriTal of the Atlantic mail at the
proper time. 1t tgives us no pleasure to ccnsure
an Official, but when, through his inexcusabe
earelessness or negligence the public suffer, we
are constrained to comment upon his conduct.
The mail from the States, which should have
reached this place on Wednesday evening, did
not arrive until the following evening. 1t laid
over twenty-four hours in Sacramento, and
our citizens are not little exaspcrated at the
Aegiigencc Of the Postmaster in sacramento.
Under the management of Col Foreman the
business Of the Office was conducted promptly
and expeditiouSly, and we never had the slight
est cause to complain. The mail was never de-
layed-now it rarely reaches its destination ut
the proper time. The Postmaster at San Fran
cisco informs us that lac forwarded the mail on
Tuesday afternoon, and that proper attention
ct Sacramento would have insured its arrival
here on Wednesday evening. Why it was re-
tanned in Sacramento twenty -four hours longer
than there was any necessity for, is matter
hat the Postmaster Of that city may find it
good policy to explain. The Alta Express
matter arrived "a hours in advance of the mail!
A change in the P0stofIicc in Sacramento is
imperatively demanded, for it is evident that
the present incumbent is either incompetent or
TOO negligent ohave charge Of such an import
ant Office. We have no acquaintance with that
gentleman nor do we wish TO blame without
cause, but our citizens are justly indignant and
have suffered from his mismanagcnlcnt, and
they insist OIL his being more attentive in the
future.
