A correspondent Of the San Francisco Ma,
tionaI has communicated to that paper start
ling theory. He states that gold has been
found in California in process Of formation. In
support Of the theory that gold is continually
forming in that region, he states that recently
a common ak was dug up, that had probably
lain four Or five years in the red earth that is
common to that region, and its entire surface
exhibited fine gold deposited upon it. He says
il is asserted by able analytical chemists that
gold can be obtained from all the earth and
rocks found within the gold belt The future
Of California as mineral country is no longer
predetermined. The exhausting of placers on
" is removed to long period, while the de
yelopment Of gold in SO many of the geological
formations seems to determine the fact that it
is only question Of time when science will be

pies that are positive in their results
