and valued at $3.50. Last week another
piece was taken out on the same bar, weigh.

Of ground sIiiccd of On Saturday last they
picked up, while slucing, one piece weighing
sixty three dollars, and thirteen dollars in
small pieces. On tie following Sunday
morning, Melander picked up twenty seven
dollars more. II is no unusul thing for them
to pick up slugs from three to twenty dollars

fallen short several hundred dollars. the
amount of which had to be paid ou. Of my
own pocket. This has been the case while
the circulation has been very extensive
and advertising patronage certainly good.
\ short narrative will illustrate tdc why.
under such favorable circumstances the paper
does not pay. a gentleman connected with
this Office undertook last week, to make
collections OF money due to the Office from
persons (paiToHs y in the Northern part

hundred dollars worth of accounts in his
pocket-was gone four ar five days and
after collecting few dollars, had to borrow
money to get home with. At lIumbug City
alone, he found two or three subscribers
prompt and polite. At some other points
he was treated to more curses than coppers.
The Agent Of the National at Nevada City
where large number Of copies OF the paper
circulates has succeeded little better and
has collected some ten dollars.

Doc THAT SPgAKs ScoTcu.-" Next to the
great increase in the practice OF smoking on
the streets--wlIich has become genteel-
the most notable sign Of social progress is
the growing fancy for terrier dogs, especially
Skye terriers and no doubt interesting
creatures these are, with their intelligent
eyes. pendulous cars, and long silky hair.
But it has recently been found that, in addi'
tion TO their attractions, Skye terriers are
excellent linguists. a Dumfries gentleman
noted for his sporting propensities, was
lately desirous of adding TO his canine col
lection two terriers to be procured direct
from the Island of Skye, and applied to a
Celt in Glasgow TO supply them. A ie"
days ago he received letter informing him
that two young dogs had been procured, and
