LETTER FROM CoX's BAR--A correspondent
writing from that place, Jan. 2Sth furnishes
some matters Of interest to readers. lie says
that Bar is now better supplied with water than
any on Trinity. There are two large bitches
leading to it, one owned by Judge Beatty, the
other by Sprague ~ Co. The former is taken
from Saw Mill Creek, and is about two miles
long, carrying about fifty sluicc heads. The
other is brought from Deer Greek, and ia about
the same length and capacity. Miners who have
water to work with are making from sj to 81 a
day Those WHO have not, are waiting patiently;
their claims have all been prospectcd, and prom
lse to make amends TO the owners for lost time.
" Freeze out and bean poker have effected
most OF the idle miners seriously for mouth or
two past Our correspondent says there is plen-
ty Of unoccupied ground on the Bar which viii
pay S3 to So day, ground sluicing, and water
can be had for IS week, when plenty.

New WATER DIrCH.-" d., writing from CoX's
Bar, says that Judge Beatty and Capt. John y.
Best are surveying a large ditch, which they in
tend to convey water to the Red Hills back of
that place. Several companies have obtained
good prospects from the surface down. The
ditch, if it can be built will be good property.
Mr. Beatty thinks it can he finished in six months
with sufficient money. Mr.. Todian, of Manzanta.
will aid the projectors in carrying out their inten-
tions. One hundred more miners will find em-
poyment in the Red Hills when the work is
finished.

"THERE is no Clay. and no one to fill his
place ~ was the almost despairing remark OF
Vice President Breckinridge At Frankfort the
other evening. Why despair? 1t is true that
Henry Clay sleeps in an honorcd grave, after
having been hunted and bounded by the base
ibcls of the Democracy during his life but the
race of parrots of the Clay school has not become
extinct. We have Crttenden, and Bell and
Rives, who, if they cannot carry the old conser
vatve banner, like the Bayard of Kentucky, have
never swprved one line from the path of duty, or
allowed their hearts TO beat with any impu sp
foreign to the best interests of the whole country.
They may be regarded rs The political legateee of
Henry Clay the repositories of his principles :;
the defender OF his policy and the champions
Of his posthumous fame. On the long record of
our counlry's history, since this dist guished tr-
umvirate first flashed glory on its pages, We mark
no iuvidiOus comparisons when we say that no
names stand more brightly cmhlazoncd. They,
with Fillmore. Hunt. Everett, Winthrop, Stuart
and other bright stars Of our national galaxy,
have never yielded To sectional pressure have
never forgotten the Union, or whispered the ac
cursed words secession or disunon. II is ia vain,
then, for the Vice President, fresh from the arena
OF the partisan gladiators at Washington. who
talk bullyngly Of the crack of revolvers and the
geam Of bowie knives, to attempt the conceal
meut of the fact that the confusion and disorder
which have jcopardied the public repose have
sprung solely from the factious conduct of the
political party with which he acts. If our noble
friend Breckingrige has los. the buoyancy of
feeling which has heretofore characterized him,
if he sees portents Of doom in the rancor OF de-
bate and sectional asperity at Washington. let
him renounce allegiance to the false theorists
with whom he has wasted the precious years OF
his manhood ; let him retrace his steps to the old
Wing landmarks which he once rcvered.-Louis-
