THE TABLES TuRNED.-For some years after
the discovery Of gold in California, our State was
supplied TO large extent with wheat nom Chile
the expense attending the production Of the cereals
here, and the comparative cheapness with which II
could be supplied from the Chilean ports, making
the trade an eminently lucrative one. Now the
tables Of trade between the two nations have been
sufficiently reversed to render il money-making
operation to ship wheat to Chile. The wonderful
improvements in American agriculture have ena-
bled us to successfully compete with the South
Americans, and beat them at their own trade. II
is the same regards our relations with Australia
which, once partly supplying us with grain, now
receives thousands Of tons per annum from our
teemng wheat fields. No country can long sue
cessfully compete with us in raising grain for the
worlds market and California wheat will yet be
eaten in the shape OF bread in Syria, Africa, Russia
Jerusalem, Egypt, and all along the Mediterranean
il is already in Chile, Australia, Sandwich Is
lands, the Atlantic States, England and most Of
Europe.

A CALIFORNIA vrNKYARD.-A correspondent
Of the S. F. Times has recently visited the vineyard
Of Col. Haraszthy, IN Sonoma county, said to be the
largest in the State. The vines 240 acres, OF
which laO acres are in bearing condition. The crop

to so 600 gallons Of wine. Cinnamon are now going
through the vine rows with hoes and white men
with plows. The Chinese do not know much about
the management of horses, but are excellent with
those hand tools which require great experience
nor skill for the proper use of them. They initiate
with perfect exactness what they see done. They
are, within the limits of their capacity faithful and
useful hands. Col. H. employs twenty-five of the
0rientals, and eight white men. He pays to the
former $25 per month, and they furnish their own
board. They consume rice and vegetables, with
about onefourth the meat necessary for the supply
Of white laborer. 1t is easy to see that theae
twenty-five Mongols displace the same number Of
white men; and it is further evident that as they

THE Coso MINEs.-This is the name given to
the recently discovered mines in Eastern TulOre,
which are thus spoken Of in the Visala Delta;
The leads thus far discovered are mostly silver.
There are some, however, very rich in gold and
copper, which parties are now preparing TO work.
Miners beginning to work their way into the
surrounding hills, and from all appearance, this
will soon be lively mining district. The want of
water is going 10 be the main trouble. Mcssrs.

with them nineteen different qualities of ore from
the mines to be assayed in San Francisco, consist
ing Of gold, silver, "copper" tin and lead ores all Of

fore been made from the groupings Of one lead,
which yielded upwards of 81 200 in silver, and $50

A NOTE or WARSrS0 FROM "THE THUNDER.
ER."-Thc London Times has a leading edito-
rial utterIng note Of warning to crowned
heads 1t says:
II the continental sovereigns are not taught
wisdom by the events which are now passing
In Europe. neither would they be persuaded
though one rose from the dead. On every side
ancient thrones are tottering, and regal mantles
are being dragged in the dust. SO far from the
Legitimacy Of sovereign's rights being safe
guard TO them, II is perhaps q positive disad.
vantage The people of Continental Europe
seem to be inspired with the belief that nothing
good is to be expected from one Of the old fam
lilies Though republicanism is for time In
allegiance, though the principle OF monarchy
was nevr more generally accepted than now,
yet IL appears to be felt that new dynasty, or
at any rate an old dynasty under newly con-
ferred powers, is necessary for the good govern
ment OF q country.

RKDuCrIoN OF QUARrz-The celebrated Souls.
by quartz lead, in Tuolumne county, has passed
into the hands Of Mr.. Geo. II. Pond, metallur'
gist of considerable experience, who has dis
covered a new process for the reduction Of
quartz rock aud sulphurets. The Sonora Dem
OcrGt says that the process is adapted to all
kinds Of veins and mills. Some time since q
quantity of sulphurets was shipped to England,
which yielded at the rate Of $2s6 sc per ton.
The same material, by Mr.. Ponds process
worked upon the claim, netted $32O-showing
q difference 10 favor Of his process Of $s4 per
ton. The poorest rock in this claim. which con-
tains bat five per cent Of the snlpharets, yields
one hundred per cent more by Mr.. P's. process
than by any ordinary methsd Of working
Many samples from other veins have been tried,
which yielded from one hundred to fifteen hun
dred per cent more than by the mills upon their
respective veins. One ton Of rock from the
claims of Moultman d Co, yielded Sal ton
the rock being taken without selection from the
whole width of the vein. The same material,
worked ct their mill, only yielded from So TO
So so per ton. A sample of concentrated sui
phurets, taken from the Chry stall Mill, after un.
dergong the process Of Selim Woodwork,
whose works are located at North Beach, San
Francisco, yielded at the rate Of $500 ton.
To every cue interested in quartz, the discove-
ry of Mr.. Pond is fraught with deep interest
Hundreds Of leads have been opened and pros
pected IN the mining counties, which have been
found Improbable to work by the ordinary
method, bat which can be worked to advantage
by Mr.. Ponds process, If the experiments that
have been made are any criterion to judge OF
its value.

THE TRUsTY SYsTEM.-McCauley's plan for re-
ducng the expenses Of the State Prison, by allowing
the convicts TO work at distance from it and leave
at will, is well known. A correspondent Of the
Union tells how a negro trusty behaved:
He had established his reputation as good hun
ter, and one day he prevailed on McCauley to fur
nish him with horse to ride, a mule to pack a
weeks provisions, double barreled gun and one
or two revolvers. He desired to go on n hunting
excursion, to be gone a week, and at the end OF
that time he thought he would be able to bring in
much game as his mule could carry. In speak
ing Of his loss, it is related Of McCauley that he
did not feel any uncasiness about the negro until he
had been gone ten days; then it became almost
positive that "the ID niger had deserted the
ranch" II is said the negro is now keeping res
taurant somewhere over in Wnshoe.

THE ToPAz--The topaz presents eight vsrie-
