The Frazer River Gold Di.Sings.

The New York papers come to us with
letters from British Columbia, which give
more favorable accounts of the Frazer River
gold diggings than the Califoraia press seem
to have deemed it their interest to permit
The principal authority, however, for state
ments that the mines in the British Posses
sions are turning out finely, IS letter from
Victoria, the new city growing up on the
southern point of Vancouver's Island. The
growth of this place depends upon keeping up
the rush Of emigration to the mines; and SO the
letter may erin being as far too favorable as the
California papers are too depreciatory. let
ter in the New York Uerald, from p. c. Darh,
dated at San Francisco, Nov 6, seems to sum
up fairly the results of mining in Frazer River
thus far, in the following paragraph:
Oae-half of the miners have returned to
San Francisco, and it is possible that hundreds
mere will do so before January. The deter
mined and resolute remain; they have forced
their way far up in the mountains and valleys
of Frazer and Thompson Rivers; they have
built cabins and provided stores for the win
ter, and from late accounts the majority of
these hardy fellows are doing well. Every
day some new phase in the country is pre-
sentcd; gold is found where least expected,
and intelligent writers say that very wide
extended gold country is there and predict
for it most encouraging future. Better cvi-
dence than any other that gold is being found
in increased quantities is on reference to the
books Of the various assay offices. Then the
steamers from the supplying points go crowded
with goods for the various towns and mining
camps up and along Frazer and Thompson
rivers.
