THE AMERICAN oNGREeATIoNAL

THE AMERICANaG AL
YEARBOOK, FOR THE 7 EAR 1853. Vol
|. une Fifth. New York Published by the
Congregational Union.
We have been permitted to examine a
publication bearing the above title, and
have been greatly interested in the facts it
contains. The association under whose
auspices it is issued has for its chief object
the assistance of new and feeble. churches,
IN the erection OF suitable houses of wor-
ship. 1t was organized in 1858, and al
thoughts resources have been quite Inn
tied, the good already accomplished has
been teiy great. The usual course has
been to grant to the society applying for
aid, n sum of money equal to one-fourth
! or one-ffth of tie amount required, on
condition that the remaining four-ffths be
raised by the applicants. In this way all
the contributions made to the society are
multiplied four or FIVE times, and every
dollar is thus made the Representative of
more direct good than can often be looked
for through any other benevolent chan
mel. New churches at the West are the
main recipients Of this bounty, and ar,
enabled bysit to erect houses of worship,
and thus secure q permanent foothold in
the community, when they would have
been quite unable to do SO without the
aid
Another modem which the .Congrega-
tional Union labors to be of service to the
cause of religion, is BY supplying libraries
to such pastors as are unable TO purchase
the books essential in their studies. These
libraries are given on condition that half
their value shall be raised by hepastor or
parish applying for them. Many minis
tiers have been provided in this way with
the means of greater efficiency, and in
view of the great desirableness of pas
tors having access to valuable books,
it would seem that many more might
with benefit avail themselves of the OPP
portunity. 1{}F1 W
The Yearbook aims ut complete
presentation, from year to- year, of the
statistics of the Congregational Churches
of the United States. The returns have
never yet been SO full as desirable, but are
approaching completeness with every is
sue. The present number contains an al
phabetieal list of ministers, statistics of the
churches, ministers and members, a record
of revivals during the past year, biograph-
zeal notices of the ministers of tiiedenoln-
ination deceased since the last issuc,, and |
many other matters of value and interest. |

LETTER FROM OLD GULCH.
OLD GULcH, APRIL, G, 1858.

Mr.. Editor Having few days leisure,
thought it would not be amiss to give you a
few items from the interior" We are a
modest people in this portion of the political
" vineyard of the Skull County," and con-
sequently are on the back ground in the way
of newspaper notices.
Mining has been at a stand-stll for the past
week, on account of the filling with slum of the
large reservoir above Old Gulch but, owing
to the energy of those in charge, the aqua is
again on its way, developing the resources of
our hills and gulches, which are by no means
SO near exhausted, (neither the ground nor
ore,) as some of our croakers would fain have
us believe; but on the contrary are merging
to a permanency that in the end will prove
highly remune ative to the Industrious and
frugal portion of those engaged in mining
On the ridge between this place and Calaveri-
tas, | notice there are several hydraulic claims,
which are steadily worked, and their proprie-
tors say, with good success. French Guch
is also paying good wages. | presume "Quien
Sabe" will enlighten you as to the future of
that classic precinct. SCOTS Hill is being
thoroughly prospected, and is said to be equal
to the San Andreas diggings in point of min
eral wealth. All that section of country lying
between this place and San Andreas, will, no
doubt, be found to pay good wages, when pros
pected. know of no better chance for pros
pecting without capital, in Calaveras county,
than it affords. Water can be had from the
Old Gulch branch of the Table Mountain
ditch.
From Mr.. Barker, the obliging and popular
waterman, learn that Cisna Hill is paving
well also, Spring Gulch. Messrs. Smith 4
Co. opposite O'Neils Bar have struck a good
prospect, and many others, too numerous to
mention are making good wages.
Yours, MUGGIxs.

LETTER FROM POVERTY RAP
Poverty BAR. Anril 1ehy

POVERTY BAR, April 1858.
Mr.. Editor The hydraulic claims above
Poverty Bar are doing very well. Thomas
Geary & Co., have struck second lead back
in the hill, that is paying twelve dollars per
day to the hand The Independent claim is
still paying as rich as ever, and some of the
carting claims on the bar are paying very
large. The French Company took out of three
days carting, fourteen hundred dolars-that
is, after stripping the top-dirt of-which paid
expenses At Camanche the miners that have
surface claims arc all making good wages, and
several companies that have worked the sur
face off, have sunk shafts and struck very
promising prospects. On Reservoir Hlll Dut-
