RAIL DEPOT, Sept 10, 1860
FRIEND GORDON OF what shall | write this
week? Shall | say some lucky homJre is making
Sl2 day? No one would give it passing
thought, unless to say" That fellow can bet
pretty steep on cold Abe" Stephen A. SOver
eighty or John C. Yancey Il Co. No politics
Politics is all the talk the very air you breathe
is contaminated with it. Sometimes | fancy |
can taste it in my pork and beans. | wouldn't
be candidate this fall for any consideration
whatever. Just think of the " rot gut" a man
must necessarily swallow especially for one like
myself, with dcblitatcd constitution (don't
like Kentucky wine, ether) The very thought
OF 1t makes one shudder
The speech of my long time friend, Hon. Geo.
Is. Tingley, at Douglas City, on Monday evening,
was something to feel proud of. Plain, compre-
henslvc, argumenative and convincing, and
being wholly free from abuse, satire or PERSONAL
tiles, was well received, not only by his own par
ty, but all who were present to hear him. | have
known Mr. Tingley for years; have voted for him
time and again, in this State and elsewhere
have heard him speak hundred times or more,
and | never knew him to descend to that low,
vilifying abuSe-that contemplate, dictatoral
oVerbearing denunciation of other parties char
acterisic of the mean demagogue. From him
politicians and aspirans for Office may learn
lesson. He is a kentuckan by birth U knew
him there J it is therefore reasonable to suppose
him Republican from the lofty consideration of
principle alone, and | ask it as favor that my
friends throughout Trinity will give him hearty
welcome. and kind and attentive hearing when
and wherever he speaks.
As said in the preceding part of my letter,
don't like whisky, and being willing to show
my subserviency to party, it has struck me that
might do something for Old Abe" and his
cause with that seventy five dollar gourd shel''
of mine. 1t certainly looks reasonable that if
old uncle David could accomplish such wonders
on the deceased carcass of Saul with little
" one horse" Jews-barp, fellow with a real,
genuine Cremona would be able to frghten the
devil out of the Democrats in no time.
Yours, all the. time,

GRATFYNG.-Since The JOURNAL has been in
existence our poet-friends, WELLS and Mrs. FA-
DER, have favored it with first publication of
their poetcal productions. We probably watch
our exchanges closely as any person in the
State engaged in like business, and it affords us
pleasure to say that the illusions of no California
adthors have been more extensively reprinted
than those OF the two persons above named both
residents Of Trinity. The last pleasant little
poem by WELLS, entitled "The Crib Players
Advice" has been returned 10 us in more than
dozen exchange papers from beyond the Rocky
mountains, while the kind and christian.like ad-
vice given by Mrs. FADER in the lines" Do
Right Yourself" have found place in an equal
number of home publications, already, among
them the leading prints Of the State.

A New ExcITEMENT.-lt may be that we are
TO have new era in the mining hist ory of Wea-
yerville basin. A short time since company
commenced work on the east side of Garden
Gulch about mile above town. They are now
running tunnel, and have found what they be.
lieve to be the real bedrock, which in some pla-
ces is twenty feet below what has heretofore been
considered bedrock. Casey d Co. first commen
ced work, and are now in about forty feet, the
rock still pitching. They have found rich pros
pects-in one instance SO to the pan. The
general belief is that an old channel extends
across the whole length Of the basin in a south
east and northwest direction, and that it contains
rich deposits Of gold. At all events some fifty
or sixty claims have been located, several Of
which are now being prospected. 1t may be a
month before the problem Of this supposed old
channel is solved, and we shall anxiously await
the reports of prospecters.

LOUISVILLE J0URNAL" WIr AND WICREDNEss.
Mr.. 1ancey fancies himself "lOoking 4" down
upon the friends of Bell and Everett" He will
never be able to do that unless they attend his
hanging.
WE are "on the fence" and the fact is, we
rather like the position, and think we'll stay
there a while. We have such fair and equal
view of both sides. And besides we have a
pocket full of rocks, which we shall take great
delight in finging at the heads of those who are
"supplcating us TO come down" 1t will be
rare sport to see them dodge !"--.HiSs DHIs

Lizzie, we can't say that we much admire to see

she will not.-Jonrnal
