Yesterday we received a communication from
several esteemed friends of North San Juan, re-
questing us to announce the candidacy of Mr..
Roberts, and assuring us that they mean " to put
him throughby daylight" Our political neu-
'trality prevents US from taking up arms for I'm
Gle Charley; but we claim the right of saying
that the Bell and Everett n1en-or, for thematter
of that the people generally--might do a thou
sand worse things than electing him to the As

will have more weight on the floor of the Assem-

MINING At HUMBUG.-But little is doing in.
the diggings about Humbug, or North Bloom
field, as it is now called; although the region is
not surpassed by any in the State for its aurifer-
Gus wealth. The great difficulty which miners
encounter, is want of sufficient fall to carry off
their tailngs. A new fume has been construct
ed, for temporary purposes, in the bed Of Hum
bug Creek, 400 feet in length which will be put
into operation next week, and afford partial
commodations to some half dozen claims, until
such time as new permanent fume, now in
process of erection, has been completed; which
will be laid in trench with some thirty feet adj
ditional fall. When this is ready for service,
lively times are Anticipated, as the dggings have
been we'll prospected, and are known to be cx-
ceedingly rich IN gold
The principal operators in these mines are
Messrs. Lamoureaux, Pettyjane & Co., the Ro-
meo Co., the Lemens Co., and Antonio Mayoux.

woolsey's Flat Correspondence.

VOOLSEfS, sept. Id, looo.
Our Flat has been the scene of some little ex-
citenent on two occasions during the past week.
In fact, anything out of the ordinary routine,
is sufficient to throw this place into fever; and
however trivial it may be, will most certainly
have to be canvased to the entire satisfaction of
every member of the community. An instance
'cf'this being the case, occurred last Thursday.
Hugh Derby, native of England, aged about 45
years, 'taSing lost some mofey, which, by the
honest sweat of his brow, he had justly earned,
was tempted to drown his feelings in the'intoxi-
eating cup; but not governing himself with that
discretion which wisernan Should, fairly "ran
the thing into the ground" atd by his excessive
use, of liquor got touch of the horrors. He
came to the conclusion, if there was another
world, he would take the chances about its being
abetter one. He accordingly drew razor across
his throat, wfthsthe intention Of prospecting that
"undiscovered bourne;' but his cabin-mate
thwarted his design, by seizing him around the
arms and screaming like fury for help. A little
blood d-letting did the man some good, and one of
our citizens sewed up the wound the razor hav-
ing made quite an awkward looking cash.
A difficulty occurred here last Sunday evening,
between two men, arising from misunderstand-
ing about five dollars, and the too-ready knife of
the Californian was brought into requistion by
one of the parties, who inflicted two rather severe
wounds upon the other-one in the head and one
in the hand. An old resident, who saw the diff
eul got quite excited, and rushed into the street
sans op90ttes, eager Ito get some weapon with
which to minglein the fray. He was unsuccess-
full, however, and the affair quieted down in
short time.
The mines here at present are doing tolerably
well, and average good as any locality in Calf
fornia. l do not, in fact, believe in these "big
strikes" that one sees occasionally recorded in
the papers; for 1 have in so many instances
known such reports to be without the least foun-
dation in fact; and thinking there are many who
believe as l do, refrain from trumpetng forth to
the world the doings of our MISUNDERSTANDING
thatthey compare favorably with any in the State.
