fields of labor with the true gamblers hope
of finding something richer still, but the ma
jority Of the mining population-"Russisn

mans, English, Scotch and Irish, were
found contentcd enough, with their gains, as
wei! they might be.
At Hills Bar. one of the richest on the
river, the produce had risen SO high as Gl3
per man per diem. This was an extreme
case, but as the lowest estimate it was said
that any common laborer could get his Dos
a-dsy at this spot by merely letting out his
services to others. All this while it was be
leved that the great centre and source Of
treasure remained yet to be discovered.
The gold deposits on the banks were held to
be the mere washings Of some intensity suri-
ferrous SOIL and the miners were eagerly
pushing their way up the river in search OF
the fountain bead OF wealth. Some con-
6rmation was lent 10 this impression by the
iact that the diggings did really improve as
the stream was assembled, but il is the nature
Of gold seekers to be necessarily on the look
out for yield offabulous value and the wealth
of Fraser River country may be considered
as well established, even without the dscov.
cry Of this unknown mine. The gold is not
found in the same form US in Australia, nor
are any miraculous nuggets described for
our edikcation, but the digging is attended
with little labor when the scene Is once
reached, the climate is extremely healthy,
and there is scarcely any sickness. Our cor
respondent met with only single invalid
throughout his entire voyage. The great
difficulty at present seems to consist in max
ing the ascent OF the river, but the orgaui-
zation Of traffic sure to follow on the sue
cess OF the diggings will soon dispose of this
impediment.
The picture given of the miners and their
ways in this new colony is exceedingly in.
strnctive, and, upon the whole, satisfactory.
Intoxication seems to be uncommon, and
gambling discouraged. There is d general
love OF order, and marked desire of strong
and effective government, "Give us pro-
lection, say the miners, "snd we will pay
for the license willingly" They want, as
body, to live under the law; are well dis.
posed towards the Governor, and promise
hearty welcome to Judge. All the bar.

The st. Paul Times says that indications
at this time point strongly 70 the renoui-
nation Of HEsKY II. SrBLsy, ~ the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor" This pro-
liability, which We admit is very reasonable,
sets the Times to cogtatiDg Us TO whether
Gov. SIBLgY can be beaten aud the con-
casion that our Deighb0r comes 10, il that
be can with "the proper man 10 oppose hin" "
The following is the Times ideal Of Re
publican candidate
lie must be man taken fresh from the PEG
pie ; a man who is known for his integrity 10
Republican principles, and his manly and Out
spoken consistency in advocating them on all
occasions and IN all places; q man who will
rot care to expend a few dollars, or be afraid
~ risk some personal exposure OF past actions
In contesting Sibeys claims to the Guberna
torIal Char, " he should again succeed in
fraduiently obtaining certificate Of election.
Of course the above is merely covert
thrust at Ex.Gov. RAMSEY, the head and
front Of the Umntsotdn clique. That
"bluff Aleek" is not fresh from the people
that he is not particularly celebrated for
manly and outspoken consistency in advo-
eating" any thing at any time Or place--and
tia, he is careful OF his dollars" we have
long believed but what does the Times
mean in charging the Tx Governor with be-
ing "Gf,ad 10 RISK one personal erposure9
past adi0us," as reason for his failure TO
contest the Gubernatorial election? This
is rather significant, when it ia recollected
that the present editor Of the Tunes Mr..
Ownss), for many years enjoyed to u great
extent, the contid nee Of the Tx Govern
or; that he was the recognized organ
st, in the M,nnesoiial, Of the RAMSEY
wing Of the party; aud ~ u conse
quence, became familiar with many remark
ably cute" financial and political opera
tons Of his chief The Times has no right
to sharpen public curiosity, and then evade
the consequences Of its course. Let It cease
its damnabc inuendocs." and speak out
boldly and mantnly. Does It refer TO RAN
skrs misuse Of Indian money, or his com.
pliciiy in frauds and bribery, in the canvass
Of 1852 Speak out, neighbor--don't be
afraid
"A to the probability Of Gov. Smiley,
if candidate. being beaten, even if the
"proper nan" Ia Tunes mani is nominated
by the opposition To oppose him, we may he
perm itted to express our doubts. Who the
Times would put up. We cannot even make
guess bu, one thing is certain. whoever
he is he will be forced to combat the oppO-
sIton OF the M,nnesoiran clique; and the
good Doctor claims that the rePudia,ionists
are in majority in the Republican ranks.
Our belief u.s. that bluff ALgcK" will he
nominated. and that the Tunes, no,wi,hstand-
lug its present abuse Of him, will heartily
support his nomination. Five thousand ma
jority for SiBLEY over RAMSEY, If they
should both be candidates next fall. is the
loves, figure We can possibly think Of.

bition Of FOOLS malice. and % pat their
mark upon it.
And it is from this eircumstance-the re-
fussl Of the meeting to ask grstuitousIy TO
be taxed before any necessity was declared
to exist for such tar from any quarter
that the Ninnesotian correspondent infers
virtual sentiment in favor Of repadiA-
ton. There is no doubt that this cor
respondent aud the reporter Of the
recent Railroad meetings held at Mime
spolis, are the same person who came
recently from New York, clothed with
the genteeI responsibility Of writing down
Minnesota in the New York Tribune and
Of organizing war OF humiliation upon
our railroads. He feels naturally incensed
against the people Of st. Anthony and Min
neapolis, for the very plain intimation they
gave hin at the union meeting to which be

he should look anxiously 10 the proceedings
OF that nesting Ior some trace or stain Of
his cherished Reputation offspring, which
was crushed and buried forever under the
overwhelming Indignation Of the assembled
people. He is welcome to the bleeding re-
mains and with these mementos of bis dis
tingashed public services, the people Of
Minnesota, give him permission to ieap. i'm.
mediately, or it is not impossible that on
the next public notice taken Of him, his
friends will have TO inter bis existence from
