THE DISPUTED TERRIToRY.-The brig Mary
F. Slade, which arrived at San Francisco on
Monday, from Puget Sound, brought advices
from San Juan Island to the 10th inst. A
correspondent of the Victoria Gazette, wr
ting from the Island on the 10th, says:
This morning the U. 5. steamers Active and
Shubrick, and the mail steamer Julia steam
ed simultaneously into the harbor. The Julia
had on board an express from Gen. Harney,
at Vancouver, and portion of three com
panies of U. ). troops, under command of 1t.
Col. Casey, which, with some fifty tons of
munitions of war, stores. etc, with two how
itzers, were duly landed The American
force upon the island at present consists of
Lieut.. Col. Casey and his Aaids L. Kellogg
of the Artillery; Lieut. Reynolds and Lieut..
Conner, Adiutant Co. u, Capt Pickett Co.
II, Capt English, of the 9th Co. A, Captain
Mallory and Co. &, capt. Hunt of the 4th
Infantry making in all about 200 rank and
file in occupation of the island.
] understand the instructions of Gen. Har-
ney were to maintain the occupation of the
island Mt all hazards
have no hesitation in saying that the
landing of British troops, if attempted, will
be considered a hostile measure and resisted
The correspondent goes on to say that the
British steamer Satellite had steamed into the
harbor on that day. and that an amicable in
terview had been held between the Ameri
can and British officers
The Steilacom Herald learns that the En-
glish' frigate Tribune, in the harbor of San
JUAN was daily practicing her men in all the
varied phases which naval engagement
could present No definite or extreme meas
ures had been thus far adopted The inter-
course between Captains Pickett and Horns

feelings. 1t is generally understood that
Gov. Douglas has it in his power TO preserve
peace or involve in war by the course which
he may pursue in the premises. Capt. Pick

HSP The Beacon editor thinks our request
that he should not put us down as an enemy of
Weller, simply ridiculous" In another arti-
Gle the editor evidently dscloses his preference
for Weller for next Governor. Hence accord
ing to his mode of argument, he is an enemy of
Denver and Latham. We, of course, like every
other Democrat in the State, have our first
choice-who that is, is no ones business but
our own. The Courier's preference is public
matter-the nominee of the Convention is its
first choice. The individual choice of the editor,
however, is private matter. We should think
the Beacon man might perceive the business of
such position. If the editor of the Beacon,
however, imagines that we desire to circulate
the idea that Mr.. Weller is our first choice for
Governor, we beg to disabuse his mind of the
impression.

Rich Quartz

A few days ago we visited the quartz lead OF
Nessrs. Loag, Smith l. Co., located about one
mile and half east of Middletown. We found
that shaft had been sunk to the depth of over
60 feet, and tunnels out in several directions
to distance of thirty or more feet 10 accom-
plish this much, has been a work of great labor
and very. considerable expense. Nevertheless II
has been labor and money well expended, mas
much as it has developed the exact position and
course of the lead, as well as proved its great
richness At the mouth of the shaft there lies
8 pile of about one hundred tons of quartz We
looked over it, and could scarcely find piece
that did not contain gold pereeptible to the ma
ked eve In miners phrase, some of it was lit
orally lousy" with the precious stuff. piece
Of six or sevens pounds which the party brought
to town and pounded in mortar, yielded within
a,fraction of one dollar to the pound. And we
firmly believe that the pile of one hundred tons,
if all the gold can be obtained therefrom, will
yield nearer $1,000 per ton than Sl00. The
quartz of this lead, we are told, looks richer and
absolutely prospects richer than the famous AL
lison Lead of Nevada.
1t will be a glorious thing for this county if
this lead realizes our expectations. 1t will give
an impetus to quartz mining in this county that
will in few years make it one of the finest
counties in the State. This entire section of
country is traversed by quartz leads that pres
pect rich Such exist in every locality in the
county. Within half a mile of this town quartz
leads crop out and invite men to come and take
them, and with them fortunes. Success in open
ing and working one of them, will inspire conf
dence, and the others will then speedily be
tested
IfMessrs. Loag, Smith & Go. were now en-
gagged in digging ditch for the purpose of bring
ing the waters of Pitt River down upon the
Churntown diggings, and the dggings north of
this town, everybody would consider it work
thatwould result in immense good to the county.
And it would be productive of such good. And
yet we believe that the enterprise in which they.
are now quietly engaged may prove greater
blessing to the county than would even the
digging of such ditch.
