Gold.

The last overland mail brings accounts of
the discovery of additional gold mines, both
in California and Oregon. An investiga-
ton of the Washee mines-which were
lately discovered in California---prove them
to be richer than was at first supposed. The
San Francisco Herald speaks of them as
follows: ~. s.-.i ~. ssa yaE-.1 .s.-.g a.7I
s' The discovery of fabulous wealth in the
Washoe Valley, the reality of which has
been placed beyond dispute, threatens to
produce changes of most important char
acter in the affairs of California and Utah.
The Washoe diggings are located in the
south western portion of Carson Valley,
distant about day and halfs ride from
Downieville, in Sierra county, and great
numbers of miners are hocking thither from
Sierra Nevada and other adjacent portions
of the State. Even in this city the excite
rnent begins to run high, and will probably
equal the Frazer River fever, but with an
entirely different result Congress cannot
fail to perceive the urgent necessity that
now exists of erecting Carson Valley into
Territorial Government, under the name of
the Territory of Nevada.
The population of that place win be quin-
tupled before3 Congress meets, and that
again will probably be doubled in the course
Of year. Emigration will be principally
from the State, at the COMMENCEMENT, leav-
ing the rich mining districts, abandoned for
| those that are richer, open to the oecupa-
| ton of fresh immigrants from the Atlantic
| States. @ '." -o. .71' 3sis
The Dalles (Oregon) Joan,at gives the
following account of some discoyerieson the
| Similkameen river: Pc $50 -- 'iHla

on the river, which is being worked by sol
diers, Quartermaster's men, and a lyrge
number of Indians. The men from camp

This is without the ordinary convent

The effect of this news has been to create
quite an excitement in our town, but as yet

He ought to be fayed naked through all the vast
wilderness of Kansas. We hope our brethren of
the press out there will pass him around, so
that he may not be able to impose himself upon
decent people. lie may be known by a certain
hang-aog look, small, red, pug nose, which
shines MS if it had a diamond in it, monkey
face, stopped walked, and a generally mean and
cewardly demeanor. We are credibly informed
that the money with which he paid his way out
of this city, was obtained from the prostitution
of the woman with whom he eloped. Pass him
him around and show him up, for he deserves to
be striped every time he looks an honest person
in the face

PITTsRuRGu AND STEUBESvnLE (PAN HANDLED
RoAD.-There remains now but little doubt that
this road, and the bridge across the Ohio at
Steubenville, will be completed without further
delays.
The Western Transportation Company, which
has undertaken to do the work, has opened an
Office in Pittsburgh, for the transaction of bust
ness relative to the road. Thomas Seabrook,
Etq., late Chief Engineer of the Western Divis-
ion of the Pennsylvania Railroad, is now upon
the line with corps of Engineers for the pur-
to its completion. The work is now in hands
possessing the ability and the means to finish it,
and before another year has passed, the public
may expect to see the cars running upon it be-
tween Pittsburgh and Steubenville. This will
enable the Pittsburgh, Columbus & Cincinnati
Company to avail of their shorter linc, so as ca
silly to make the Express run between this city
aud Pittsburgh in t,oo hours less than is taken
by the present schedule. Gin. Commercial
