EDITOR DEMooRAT;-We are Just getting
out of one Of the severest snow storms of the
season. The snow is six or seven feet deem
and still hangs on the frs. Although the
place looks dismal enough above, yet under
ground all is life, activity and wealth. This
is one of the richest mining places in Sierra
county, and during the next summer will
doubtless become a place of considerable
trade
A few days since the Masonic works. one
of the most valuable and extensive in North
ern California, came very near destruction by
fire but the fire was happily subdued before
much damage was done. The prospect of a
burning engine house over the shaft, with
20 men 400 feet below and unable to reach
daylight, created a great sensation below,
but fortunately no accident occurred in con-
sequence of the panic.
The Masonic and Fremont Companies are
progressing very successfully with their en-
terprise, and will each, within few weeks,
take out immense sums. Both claims are un-
der the direction of experienced and popular
foremen, and the work progresses successful
ly, day and night, to the entire satisfaction of
all concerned
On Sunday night an interesting lecture was
delivered in the village hall, by Calvin B.
Mcdonald, Esq, well known to the press,
and to nearly all the people of this region as
an able and popular editor. This l believe
was Mr. McDonald's first appearance as a
public lecturer, and l am free to say that he
acquitted himself with as much ability as he
has displayed in his occupation as an editor.
His subject was, "King Cold The lecture
was characterized by many eloquent passa-
ges which found quick response from the
warm-hearted people of this, at present,
wintry region. The lecture was certainly a
performance worthy of any inteligenent au-
dience in California As understand that
Mr.. Mcdonald intends to lecture in other
places l have taken this occasion to say that
his first effort or essay gives promise of eX-
traordinary popularity and success. If elo-
quent words modestly and appropriately
spoken, will enttle him to popular favor, our
friend will assuredly become a favorite. Hav-
ing frequently heard that gentleman speak
in high terms of the editor of the NATIONAL
DEMOCRAT, Ihave thought proper to commu-
nicate these facts, hoping that it may be use
ful to him and pleasing to his friends, among
whom your paper has an extensive circua-
tion. This is the more becoming since Mr.
Mcdonald, in his lecture, paid a high CON-
pliment to the interior press, which, because
of its justice and beauty, regret that had
not time to transcribe and send you.
AS my purpose in this communication was
mainly to state these facts, relating to what
consider production of extraordinary merit,
l will beg you TO pardon the absence of in
teresting particulars in other respects Mr..
Mcdonald has many friends here who will be
pleased that others elsewhere should be ad-
Vised of facts in which they all concur.
Respectfully yours, D.

STRIFE IN CnuRCH.-The Utica IN. W Oh
server remarks: Great excitement has been
caused at Caughdency, Oswego county, by a
most extraordinary act on the part of the
Methodist Episcopal Church in that village.
1t appears that Elder Salisbury pastor of
the society there, who has been worthy and
eloquent preacher of the gospel for some for.
ty-tive years, residing at Central Square, in
that county having voted for Douglas at the
late Presidential election, was excommunica
ted 10y his church. On Thursday after the
election meeting was held to take the pas
tors case into consideration. The question
of his pro slavery voting was discussed and
severely denounced. A member arose to
speak on the impropriety of the church
mingling in politics, and the injustice of
prescribing the elder for his political views,
when he was hissed and stamped down. The
question of accommodation was put and the
elders head rolled from under the church
gullotine. Several valuable members have
signided their intention to withdraw from
the church, and great excitement and bitter
ness prevailed in the community.

PETALUMA SALT PoRK.-The Petaluma
Journal states that Mr. j. O. Shirley has now
in his possession salt pork, cured fourteen
months ago, according to the following
rules:
Selecting a good fat corn or grain fed hog,
so soon as the nights become sufficiently cool
or frosty to chill or freeze the carcass, slaugh-
ter dress. and hang it up where the sun will
not reach it; let it hang two nights, then
take it down, cut up and pack away-frst a
layer ofsa't, then layer of pork, then lay.
er of salt, and so on. Twenty-four hours af-
ter packing. make strong brine, slowly
heating it in kettle until arriving at boil>
ing point, skimming off all impurities that
may rise to the surface then set away to
cool, allowing 1t to stand over one night in
order that it may become perfectly chilled.
During this period of cooling, add table
spoon full of salt and pepper. When suffi-
cently cool, pour upon it the meat, until it
is completely immersed. OF course, it will be
necessary to examine and see if the brine has
become soured, in which event, it will only
be necessary to draw off, boil ard skim, or
substitute fresh, as may be deemed best.

A CmYAMAN OF MARK.-Seven months
ago, All Sang, an Intelligent Chinaman, who
had passed five years in California, three in
mining, and the balance as a merchant, re-
turned to his Celestial home, taking with him
fortune of $15 900, the fruits of his tolls,
coupled with considerable smattering of
English. On his arrival home his talents,
coupled with his means, made man of note
of him, and he was considered of such i'm
port were that he was attached to the suite of
the Great Mandarin on Foreign Affairs, at PEI
kin. His diplomacy procured his advance
ment, and he received the button and pea
cock feather of a Mandarin of the second
class much to the joy Of his friends on Sac
ramento and Dupont streets, who began to
think that when they returned, each individ-
ual would share a like advancement. All
Sang, recent letter from China says, was
the chief negotiator of the recent peace with
the English and French forces, and was the
party who signed the treaty on behalf of the
Emperor. His Americanizaton led to a
speedy settlement of the troubles and we
trust he will live a long and useful life in his
official capaeity.-S r. ALd.

FREAKS OF MEMoRY.-A British captain
whilst giving orders on the quarterback of
his ship at the battle of the Nile, was struck
on the head by a shot, and Immediately be-
came senseless. He was taken home and re-
moved to Greenwich Hospital, where, for l5
months, he evinced no sign of intelligence
He was then trephined; and Immediately up.
on the operation being performed, conscious
ness returned, and he Immediately began
busying himself to see the orders carried out
that he had given during the battle fifteen
months previously The clockwork of the
brain, unaware that it had stopped, upon be-
ing set going again, pointed to the exact
minute that it had left off. These sudden re.
vivals of lost intelligence almost rival in
their dramatic effect the consequence of the
princes advent in the palace of the Sleeping
Beauty, where, at the magic of a kiss, the
inmates of the royal household. who had
gone to sleep for hundred years, transixed
in their old attitudes, leapt suddenly into life
and motion, as though they had only for a
moment slept.-London Journal.

A STRANGE SIGHT.-Not long since saw
father in one of our parks with a pallld, sick
ly baby in his arms, whose little attenuated
hand and wrist as 1t hung over its fathers
shoulder. looked more like little birds claw
than anything else. The child was going out
for the fresh air. This was well but it was
not well for the father to be putting a cigar
straight into the little creatures lungs The
strange picture has often occurred to me since,
accompanied by the thought how that selfish
father, confirmed in this bad habit, would
have repelled any insinuation that he did not
love that child. So it is that tobacco by de-
grees blunts the finer feelings, and counts
everything as nought, when weighed in the
balance against this slavish Indulgence
