uoi FOR THE NEW MINES.


| SrEILAcooN, July 18th, 1858.
As il has become q well known fact that rich
gold deposits have been found on American soil,
and as much discussion exists in regard to the
best route thereto, embrace the opportunity to
make 4 few statements from my own personal
experience. All doubtless remember the excite
ment Of IS in regard to the Colville mines; and
as was one Of the number who visited those
mines, shall endeavor to make 4 plain stateme
Of facts. On the 2sth Of July, 1855, in company
with six other men, left SteilacOOm for the Col.
vile gold mines The first day after leaving
Steilacoom we encamped on the Puyallup River,
distance from Steilacoom Of some rs miles
the end Of the second day brought US to Boise
Greek, further distance Of some 20 miles; the
third day We encamped at the last crossing Of
White River, and on the evening Of the fourth
day, at O'Clock, we encamped on the summit Of
the Cascade Mountains Here we laid over for
one day, as the grass was very fine, and our an
imals somewhat tired. On the following morn.
Ing We packed up and commenced descending
the east side Of the Cascade Mountains, over .
good graded wagon road. On the third day after
leaving the Cascades, at Z O'Clock PM, we en-
camped on the Yakima
The road tie entire distance from steiacoOm
10 Colville Is over fertile country, abounding in
grass, wood and water. After reaching the Pen
de RieIIe, commenced mining, and worked some
two months, making from S5 to SIS per day.
On the Sd Of November | lelf the Pen de RieIle
for the Dalles, which place reached in Decem.
Der. Therefore amer travelling both roads, l
think am able 20 say which Is the nearest and
best road. The idea which the Orron psope

WILL DoCGLAs nE PRESIDENT ?-Tbe
St. Louis Evening News does not believ.
that Douglas viii be the Democrs,;c
nominee. It says:
We think not. We don't think he will
even be nominated. His friends and ad
mirers, we are aware. imagine since his
triumph in Illinois that he is the autocrat
of all the United States, and is hound TO
he nominated by the Charleston Conven-
ten in 1860. when he will sweep every
thing before him.
We see no such rosy future before him.
Douglas viii never reach the White
House. because the politicians of the
South will not let him-they are willing
to have him in tie Senate, because he can
be of use to them there. They want
manageable men for Presidents, and Dom
glas is eminently an manageable man,
with too great love of power, and too
unreasonable ambition to submit to the
necessary and wholesome restraints which
hedge the Presidency around. Besides,
his Freeport "Squatter Sovereignty {"
dogma will stand like an iron gate across
his path, and forever prevent his access to
the White House.
