CONTINUES RIcu-The Doig Quartz lode
at Ophir, that has obtained to considerable
notoriety of late, has not diminished in
handsome returns to the proprietors. We
understand that it yields from $500 to $500
per day-working from two to three men.
The vein is thin-not more than an inch in
thickness, but is exceedingly rich in gold.
A shaft has been put down upon it to the
depth of fifty feet, the vein proving richer
at that depth than nearer the surface. A
days work yields but little quartz-gener-
ally not more than peck-which is pound
ed in mortar; and yields the amount above
stated So far there has been about $4,000
extracted from the vein. Other parties are
now prospecting for a continuation of the
vein, with sanguine hopes of striking quartz
of equal richness. We hope they will not
be disappointed.
The Doig lead, for its size is certainly one
Of the richest in the State; and we are con-
fident that its successful working will do
much toward developing the riches Of the
extensive quartz lodes that rib the country in
every direction in the vicinity of Ophir.

The Test.

The Democratic State Central Committee
have recommended the several County Com
mittees in the State, to establish as a test
of qualification for votes in the primary elec-
tions, that they shall have voted for the nom
inees of the last Democratic State Conven-
ton, held in in the city of Sacram ento, on
the 4th of August, 1858, and presided over
by James II. Hardy, or that they indorse
the platform OF principles established by that
Convention This is but {. recommendation
on the part Of the State Committee, and is
not binding upon the party and farther than
the County Committees shall see fit to adopt
it-if they like the test, they can put it in
force; fnot, they may establish a different,
or omit the formula altogether We think,
however, the tes. will be generally accepted
by County Committees. In this county we
hope to see its strict enforcement. 1t is true
there may be number of deceived Demo-
Gratis who LETT us last fall and acted with the
Boilers, who will heartily cooperate with
the National Democracy in future-to these
we extended a cordial greeting of return;
but when we recollect the open and avow-
ed fusion of the Boilers and Republicans in
this county, as exhibited in their words and
actions, in their hand-bils and tickets, we
have no expectation or desire for their return
to the Democratic ranks. Men who will
openly combine with Republicans once, will
do again, ift will serve the purposes of their
apostacv Such men are of no value to our
party-we do not want them-they are no
credit to u.s. but disgrace-we are well rid
Of them To the Democratic Central Com
mi:tee we say establish the test recommend
ed. The party was well purged of unwor-
thy members last fall; it is now healthy-let
it be kept So We are united, strong, and
fully able to cope with any opposition that
will come into the field. The soldiers are
tried and true--they should not be contain
mated by the presence of deserters. The
Democratic party was freed Of rubbish last
fall that has been the cause of unbounded
satisfaction to our organization ever since
Establish the test and keep out the Boilers.

The CHAMBERS PnocEss.-The machinery
and process for saving gold from quartz, in
troduced into California by Judge Chambers,
is now being put in operation at Henson s
quartz MILL on Secret Ravine, six miles be-
low Auburn. 1t is expected to have the
machinery running some time next week.
For start, ten of the small mills have been
erected, to be increased in number if found
necessary.
Quartz men are disposed to regard this
new process with favor, an, are hopeful that
it will be as effective in gold saving as claim
ed for it. Shonld this be the case, quartz
mining will rapidly obtain an Importance in

as to the per diem the Lieutenant Governor

Exs" The San Francisco Times (Repub.)
does not like the halfway support given that
party by the Sacramento Union, and has
taken occasion to rap the Independent sheet
severely for its backing and filing in politics.
The Times SAYS: 'that newspapers may be
divided into two classes: the one called polt-
lcal, whose editors pretend to some honesty,
and who profess to be attached to certain
views and principles, which they seek to i'm
press upon the public mind; the other sty-
ling themselves independent, who have no
convictions or principles, and are edited and
published solely with view to making mon
ey, caring nothing what doctrine they advo-
cate, so it pays and jumps with the public
humor. In this latter category thev place
they Sacramento Union, and they infer that
the principles of the Black Republicans are
becoming popular, from the fact that the
Union lately exhibits leaning towards
them"
The Sacramento STANDARD says, "we have
in moments of irritation, said some hard
things of our neighbor, Qhe Union,) but
nothing SO biting as this"
