a RIcu SILVER MINE-A letter from a
friend in San Bernardino relates. says the
San Francisco Herald. the followi facts:
lie says that san Bernardino promises to
become a very prosperous county, first from
the contemplated opening of new roads toy
the Overland Mail Stage Company, thereby
bringing the county into more intimate con-
neclion with the rest OF the State, and next
and mainly. from the re discovery of the rich
silver mines which were wrought under the
direction Of the Mission Fathers many years
ago. The fathers finally buried up and con-
cealed the mines from the fear that the
knowledge OF their existence would induce an
irruption of fortune hunters and seriously
interfere with their labors among the Indi-
ans. In order the more effrctually to pre-
vent knowledge of these mines from being
diItused abroad, the Fathers laid severe in
functions upon the Indians, forhidding them
10 make the existence of these mines known.
1t however appears that an old Indian who,
when young, helped to conceal the mines,
has lately pointed them out to his son-in-law
"a white man-saying, that he was now
willing to die if the mines would beueft his
SON -in-lHw. The discovery is makinga great
stir in that region Of country, and specimens
Of the ore, which are said to greatly resem-
Die those from Washoe, were sent to this city
