lr According to the London Times, the
English have at length discovered way to
derive aid and comfort from the under
ground railroad system of the United States.
That paper revels the important fact that the
British Government has it in contemplation
to seek for recruits for the army of India
among the fugitive slaves who have taken
refuge in Canada. The English are rival
ing the Yankees in their utilitarian specula-
tions. They have long been making slaves
of the negroes which they capture from
slave ships on the high seas, see Cass' late
letter to Lord Napier and now they are GO
ing to make soldiers of the escaped slaves
whom they allow to take shelter on their
Canadian borders. Verify this is turning
philanthrophy to pretty good account.

LOCAL PAPERs.-The Amador Sentinel
in some we'll written remarks upon the close
of its 5th volume, speaks as follows with
reference to the Importance of supporting
local papers -
"A county acquires prominence through its
paper more than in any other way. and to
every one who has county interests at stake,
his home paper is necessity. Never will
such man take paper printed away from
home until he is able to take a second paper
His first paper will be bis home sheet, and
be will 80 identify his own interest with the
county paper as to consider his subscrip-
ton as much matter of duty as the pay
ment of his taxes. Every community
should support we'll its local paper. Each
county in every state should pride itself on
the support given the papers published with
in its limits.
The local paper when we'll conducted,
gives character and Importance to the place
abroad, and is looked to as, in some sort,
the exponent Of the intelligence and wealth
of the community it represents, and the ad-
vertising pages are kept by merchants below,
as sort of business directory, by which to
judge of the safety of mountain Dealers

waiting for The fall of Frazer.

It is estimated that some ten Thousand
men have already left San Francisco for the
new diggiugs. most Of whom are aoaiti1g for
the river to fall, in order to pass over the
rapids, to the good diggings on the upper
" Frazer" and on Thompson's rivers. The
time fixed for the fall of the river is from
the beginning to the end of August, by
which time it is reasonable to estimate that
there will be another ten thousand added to
the first, say in all twenty thousand to be
transported in canoes to "Me" diggings.-
How many canoe will carry, how many
canoes there are, or the time that will be
occupied in trip know not, yet suppose
that each canoe will carry .fve, with pro-
visions, tools, &C., and that ten days will be
the average time for trip, it will require
500 canoes, each to make trips. to convey
the impatient miners to their diggings, and
would consume in time 80 days-commen-

% The Sacramento Union. Of Wedncs-
day last, contains siz columns of news and
comments upon the new god fields at the
North, the most of which consisted of letters
from San Francisco speculators and persons
connected with the Steamers running on
those waters, or with the trade Of ihe coun-
try. They are filed with the mCet improb-
able heGTSGy stories, often contradicting
themselves, and in some cases having the
most unmistakable evidences of having been
manufactured for the special purpose Of
Keeping mp the excitement We fully agree
with the Trinity Journal and other interior
papers, that the practice of parading tuch
mass of incoherent nonsense before the
public is working serious detriment not
only 70 the individuals who may be duped,
but to the public at large. One of the
most glowing of these letters in the Ua.son
as afore said is accompanied with remarks
even more lengthy than the letter proving
most conclusively that the letter is @ wicked
lie, and yet it ie published, and the assertions
of the letter writer are eagerly treasured by
the mass of readers while the comments Of
the editor forgotten almost as soon as read.
Some Of our California Editors will have
vast amount Of responsibility resting upon
their sholders fer the reckless manner in
which they have aided to keep up this mon
strous and foolish excitement.

The CLIMATE-RAINs.

A number of publications, treating Incl
den tally upon the climate of the Frazer RiV>
er country, had been given to the world
long before the present excitement had an
existence. In addition to this evidence, we
have the testimony of numerous persons who
have visited that region within the past
year. All accounts agree in what the sim
pie fact of latitude should satisfy Us about,
that the winters of the mountain region,
where the gold is chiefly found, are very
long and extremely rigorous.
The spring months of April and May are
remarkably fine and pleasant. During the
month of June it rains almost incessantly.-
July, August and September constitutes
the short and extremely bot summer, during
which time the air is filled with mosquitoes,
sand flies and other like torments which are
generated in surprising numbers By the ex-
tremely hot sun bursting suddenly upon the
moist earth after the heavy June rains. In
October the rains again set in, and are con-
tinued, at frequent intervals through that
month, November and part of December.
During the most of the latter month and the
entire of January, February and March, the
whole mountainous region of that Country
is locked in the frosts embrace of the ice
King.
From this it will be seen that the earliest
mining cannot be done before the last of
March or first of April. At that time the
rivers are low by reason of the frost. Du-
ring the month of May the rivers begin to
rise by the melting of snow and by the first
of June they are bank fall from that cause
and the June rains, SO that no more mining
can be done until the first of August, when
the rains again commence falling. During
the months, May, August and Sept. will be
the best mining season. Early in October
the rivers again commence rising and keep
up until the rains turn to snow in the noun
tains, long before which time but little mi
ming can be done, and that high up in the
banks.
From the above it will be seen that no
mining can be done during the months Of
January, February, March and June, next
to none in December, and but very little in
April, July, October and November. The
best months being May, August and Sep
tember-3 months. Not more than halt
work can be connted for April, July, Oct.,
Notwithstanding, at the outside, but five
months work in IL. The diggings must be
rich indeed to pay under such circumstances
No MINES OUT OF THE RIVERS
All accounts agree in stating that nc
mines have yet been discovered away from
the rivers. This is fact too notorious te
bequestioned. The favorable reports-what
we have had-have come from those who
worked during the month of April and 6
part o. Nay, when the rivers were low

The New Overland Mail Route,

The new mail route from the Missouri

Another Allison Ranch Lead.

Messrs. Rush & Layton, of this place,
have recently erected steam pump upon a
quartz vein, on Pike Flat, and are now run
ing into the vein, on the incline. They have
already pentrated distance so feet, all the
way through rock of fabulous richness. 1t
is mostly decomposed and frequently exhibits
gold in the utmost profusiOn. AS one of
the partners panned out pan full of the
dirt, few days since. another, who stood
by, offered $500 for the gold-it was thought
there was not less than $3.50 in the pan !!
Twenty, thirty and forty dollar pans may
be selected almost any day. The entire lot of
rock thus far raised. is estimated at from
$3.50 to $500 per ton. AS we have already
stated, they have gone down on the vein
about go feet, and all the way through this
description of rock. and there is no telling
how much deeper it will continue. Enough
ground has already been opened to secure
handsome thing to all concerned. When the
shaft reaches the depth of 70 feet, side drifts
will be run preparatory to the regular COM
mencement of stopeing It will be come
two or three months before any of the rock
will be crushed. When that time comes we
shall look out for an GstoniSher. We don't
talk of rock paying $4,000 to the ton, as the
correspondent of the Sacramento Statesman
does, in his recent letter from this place, for
shat is all moonshine. But when we talk of
$3.50 to the ton we know of what we speak
and mean it. The ledge, so far as prospect
ed will pay that amount or very near it,
while the total cost of draining, raising,
hauling and crushing the rock will not ex
ceed SIG per ton.
This is better. even, than Allison Ranch,
and sufficient, one would think, to dispel all
such illusions as are engendered by the fro
thy letters from Frazer River.
The original proprietors Of this lead,
Aessrs Fletcher, Carey, Clark and Biggs,
have recently entered into a contract
with Messrs Rush & Layton, two of our
most enterprising and energetic mill owners
under which the latter have put up steam
pump to drain the vein and raise the rock
for one quarter of the yield. The prospect
is morally certain for fortune to all con-
cerned. The lead is an extension of the
we'll known Badger Hill Lead" owned by
Messrs Wallace l. Co.

About $3.50, 900 was purchased during the

goes from this place is obtained in this i'm

Nevada includes the most of that taken out
in the upper part of the County.
