tains. We saw numbers of miners washing
in a pan the dust that had been run through
the ~sluices, and they told US they were making
from So to So per day. We were told Of sew
several claims q 90 feet of a q~uartzlead) that
sold for from $1,000 to 500 900. This is doubt
less q fact, but they are generally sold in this
way If one miner sells q claim to another, the
pay must come out Of the claim, so if the claim
proves goVdy the seller gets his pay, if not, he
gets nothing. The lumber dealer sells the mi
neF enough boards for a slaice; if his claim pays
for working, the iumberman get his pay, if not
he must take back the sluice and run the risk
of selling It again.
As most of the miners are without any CAPT
tai this is the only way in which they can open
their claims, 50 any one who is disposed to
work, can at least make a start without any
capital. There is at present some 5000 men
busily engag d either in mining or prospecting;
! there is not one in a hundred of these making
their board. We met hundreds returning
cursing the country and declaring to us that
there WIS 10 gold in the mountains. The truth

BACKING DOWN.

The strong outside pressure has compelled the
Administration to back down from the position
assumed in the letters addressed by CasS to
LIE Clcrc and Hofer, in reference to the rights
acquired by naturalization That portion OF
the press of the party which is accustom-
ed 10 !" go it blind made a feeble attempt
to defend the doctrine faid down in those epis-
ties, and Senator Pugh came to their aid by
undertaking TO give the language used by the
Secretary of State a meaning that the language
itself did not warrant, nor the author intend.
But this would not do-Gov. Wise denounced
the doctrine preached in the letters referredto,
Senator Douglas was preparing TO folloT sat,
Democratic papers and Democratic meetings
protested against it-and meantime sundry
natHralized citizens not claimed to be deser-
ters,' on visiting their native country on busl-
ness OF for pleasure, were sliced and forced to
take a place in the army, where a number of
them nov are. The only course left for the
ADMINISTRATION to pursue was a back-out and
thengk harniliatirg in the extreme to do so,
they adopted the alternative, as will be seen
from the following dispatch-and now Though
on eompulsion assent to the proposition that
srsssralized citizens have rights that foreign
dezpots are boufNs to respect:
W~Asu1NGroN, July 14-Fhe Constitution
of this morning contains a copy of a dispatch
from the State Department, recently sent to
our minister in Berlin on the subject of natur-
alization, The ease is that Of a naturalized
citizen of the United States, who is a native of
Hanover, and who, when he left his native
country was neither in actual service of the
Hanoverian army, nor had he been drafted to
service in it but who FIGS, upon his return to-
Hanover, deprived of his liberty and compel
led to perform military service. The Prcsi-
dent and cabinet concur IN the views expressed
taking ground that the ~tsoTnent q foreigneFb1-
comes naturalized his allegiance to his native
country has ceased, and he is no more respon-
sible for anything he may say OF do or esrit to
say or do after. Assuming his rev character
then, asif he had been born in the q nited States
should he return to his nati%e-eeuntrJ nc re-
turns Us an American citizen. In order to en-
title his original government to punish him for
an offense, this must have been comnDatted
whilst he was a subject and owed allegiance
to that government. The offense must have
been complete before his repatriation. 1t
must have been of such a character that he
might have been tried and punished for it at
the moment of his departure. Our minister is
instructed to demand the release of the natur-
allied citizen in question.

RE-OPxNzNG OF THE SLAVE

States thu pi ,iect has no open advocates in

join a couple of extracts going to establish
these positions,
First, as to the probability of the reopen
ing of the Slave trade becoming a party tenet
and test of orthodoxy with the Deuaecracy-
Hear Hon. \. II. STEPHENS, ono of tie most
talented and influential members of the party
IN that section, and an aspirant for the Presi-

rights or to quarrel and accuse each OTTER of

of the trade; in defiance of the laws prohibit

How Thew Fooled Greeley.

Nobody who knows Greeley will doubt his
integrity, but probably there is no man who
can be more easily imposed upon than he /;
for his crcdulity knows no pounds. Common
sense would tell any man that a mere visit of
a day to the gold mines, of 50 noted a charac-
ter as Greeley, should furnish but little evil
tlence as to the richness of the IHines.
The Tusearawas Advocate shows how the
miners deceived Mr.. Greeley. Tbs Advocate
saws it has a letter from Mr.. G.. II. Esrich, of
New Philadelphia, who is now at the gold
~diggings. It was written from Gregory's Dig
gings, and says that he arrived there the 18th
of June. that thousands arc rowing with SHOW
els over the mountains, bat seeking fox gold
in vain Greelcy's circular raised the spirits
of gold seeking emigrants, but their spirits fall
when they arrive and find they are humbug-
gcd. -" 81.
Mr.. EsPiclf saw Greeley when there, and
has read his statement, and says: in regard
to the richness Of the mines, the old gentleman
was awfully h~umbugged.' Mr.. L. says he
has listened to the miners boast how they came
it over Greeley by " salt'nG their si~ice 6oqes

rrr. and Mrs. Dan. sickles.

The New York Tribute is credibly inform
ed that the Hon. Daniel E. Sickles has become
entirely reconeiled with his wife, and is now
living with her iii ~f1atrial relations as before
the death of Philip Barton Key. The Trib-
une says
We are assured that in taking this remark
able step, Mr.. Sickles has alierated himself
from most if not all of those personal and po-
litical friends who dcvotedly adhered to him
during his recent Imprisonment and trial.
The reconciliation between Mr.. and Mrs. Sic
kles was consumRated, as we are informed,
while Mr.. S. was residing at the house of a
friend on the BIoominedale road, about half a
mile from the former house of Mr.. s., which
for some time past Mrs. Sickles has occupied,
either alone or with some of the members OF
her own family. The suspicious of his host
were excited by the repeated absence of Mr..
S. at unusual hours and when he came in
very early one morning he was interrogated by
the host and another friend VIII was present,
and an his positively denying their right to
question him, and refusing to give an eNPlana-
ton, they shook hands with him for the last
| time and he withdrew. 1t is said that he has
since addressed letters to his former intimate
associates, notifying them formally of the re
sumption of conjugal relations between him
self and Mrs. Sickles.
| The New York Sun confirms the statement
Of the Tribune and states that Mr.. Sickles a
few days ago took Mrs. Sickles out sailing on
the Hudson. The Sun remarks
Perhaps the Christian ~inffuettce of the clcr-
! cvffHn who manifested such a deep interest in
Daniels welfare during his incarceration il
Washington, and his trial for the murder o.
Philip Barton Key, has kindled in his breast
the spirit of charity. Or the music of tho
Young jurynan's violin may have reawakenet
those earlier sentiments of affection which haC
been temporarily paralyzed by the supposed
q dishonoring of his bed The only regre
the public will have is that his vengeance pro
we'd so fatal, and that Mr.. Key is not alive t
witness MIR. Sickles' restoration to sanity aiC
his full conformation of his wife's Hindiscre
tions.' She confessed all, and her husband. i
appears, has forgiven all. WotAd that he hac
earlier learned the prayer, " Forgive us GU
trespasscs, as we forgive them that trespas
against u.s."

believed that any fugitive. slave law is uncon-

that it was the duty of Congruss to prohibit
