BADGER HILL, Dec. 9, '59.
R. II. F..

Mr.. Editor
This thriving little place is well de-
serving of more extended notice than
it has ever yet received. From the
first opening of the diggings in the
Spring Of "a, up to the present time,
they have never failed to remunerate the
miners we'll for labor.
The hill is supplied with water by the
Badger Hill Ditch from Grizzly Canon,
which, with the extensive improvements
recently made, and an increased reser-
voir capacity, will furnish a supply Of
water equal to the present demand.
The hill was originally located in
small claims which have been successive
ly purchased from the first owners, and
it is now owned by three companies,
viz: L. F. Sheets, Gill & Co., and Dix
on & Co., who give steady and remuner-
alive employment to large number OF
men. Gill & Co. are washing through
a bedrock tunnel, the shaft having a
perpendicular fall from the surface of
the rock to the tunnel of nearly one
hundred feet. This grinds nearly as
we'll as a quartz mill the blue cement
which is too hard to be washed except
by some crushing process. The cement
is very hard, and also very rich, the gold
being easily discovered throughout the
mass with the naked eye.
The other companies are yet washing
only the surface, but Sheets has tun-
mel more than half completed.
Several families have made the place
a home; among them, two were but
lately brides, and if events foretell events
another fair young face will ere long
grace miners cottage. JAY.

INDECENT SIcK.-We published a
communication on this subject last week,
and are glad to see that it has attracted
contemporary attention. The Nevada
Journal speaks approvingly of "Pub-
lies" suggestions, and recommends them
to the attention Of the authorities.

Nor PRopER.-Several applications
have been made to this paper for the
purpose Of inducing it to "say good
word" for certain excellent gentleman
who desires the post Of Secretary to the
Senate He is no doubt we'll qualified
for the position he seeks, but if elected
it win be less for that reason than for a
partizan one. As this journal is neither
partizan nor political, any recommends
ton would be improper. Besides this
it is not right for a paper, no matter
how insignificant, to endorse any person
on the urging of printed circulars and
of friends, nor is it right for such a
thing to be asked.

Upper Stories of the Profession.

A young man is said to have inquired
ofDanI w ebster whether there was any
room for him in the legal profession. His
answer was that there was room enough
for thousands in the upper stories of all
the professions. To casual observer,
the professions of all seem to be full !;
they seem, indeed, to be crowded to
excess with young aspirants. The
reason is because we look only at the
lower stories of the professions the
more exalted and intellectual portions
Of them do not come under our notice.
When a man, therefore, tells us that
there is abundance of room for more
lawyers, preachers, and doctors, we are
ready to pass it as hyperbole. We find
it hard to bring to our minds to believe
that a single individual can elbow his
way through the hungry crowd that
throngs every professional business
within our acquaintance. Yet it is
true doubtless that the higher grades
of mental culture exist nowhere in too
great profusion. Whether we make
our inquiries among the professions,
the sciences of the literature of our
country, we shall find paucity rather
than surplus of finished talent. Is
there any danger Of first class literary
minds being jostled on account of want
of room In the domain of literature? Is
there any danger of scientific acumen
being soon at discount from want of
subjects offurther investigation Could
not a few more accomplished jurists
and diplomats find employment yet in
the various departments of Government.
Could not physician of superior at
tainments find employment almost
everywhere without infringing on the
rights of others in the same business as
himself? Indeed, there is no employ
mept known to civilized society, where
the occupants of the most talented and
accomplished circles would have any
occasion to disturb one another's equa-
nimity in consequence of a closeness of
contact.
The fact is, the best, the most tai
ented, the upper stories of all the en-
Payments are not overrun. There is
room enough for all the young people
now in our schools. The world is ask
ing for lofty but practical talent, for
noble, generous-hearted patriotism, and
for resolute unfinching moral endow.
