thentic source in Washington, that the bus-
ness for the extra session Of Congress, to
be convened on the fourth Of July, will be
so eonspoctly arranged and presented TO them,
that but very short session will be requir-

why not dispense with Copgrsss aitogetheri
It will be useless expense. If it is to meet

The Cinnabar Mountain in Lake County

Aue Clnn0Dar mountain IN Lake COuutys
We have heretofore refrained, says the
Napa Reporter Of the 18th, from saying
much concerning the late discoveries of Gin
nabar in this (now Lake) county; having
been more than once misled BY reported"
rich discoveries. But having visited, in peri
son, the claims Of the Excelsior Company,
between Berryessa Valley and Clear Lake,
and having, moreover, direct and positive
knowledge of the results of months pros
pectng, we are now prepared to speak def.
htely. From our actual knowledge, we are
prepared to say that in all probability no
discovery of cinnabar in America has ever
been made equal in value or extent. Two
we'll defined lodges of the mineral extend
up the mountain side, visible upon the sur
face, at most points fer over three thousand
feet They are broken, in places, but still
Enthusiastically forming continuous and mass
i've Lodges scarcely a loose stone can be
turned up by the pick, but which, on break
ing, proves to be cinnabar of the richest
quality. Many immense stones. standing
isolated, are nothing less than solid blocks
of cnnabar. For distance Of over hun
dred yards at the foot Of the mountains,
and far up its side, the pick struck into the
common soil, comes out redeemed with ver-
million. pan of earth taken at random.
yields, on washing, heavy percentage of
vermillon and ciunabar in fragments. 1t
is true that prospecting is not mining; but
among the many gentlemen Of experience
in such matters who have visited the place
within the las, few weel1s, We have heard
none express doubt either as to the rich :
ness or extent of this discovery. The more
massive portions Of the ore are Of liver
color, occasionally traversed Ivy seams or
veins which are nearly black. Other por-
tions are of brilliant red hue, with bright
crye,olipe fracture. III these varieties, on
retorting, yield a high percentage of mercu
ry. No sample has yet been tested yield
ing less than sixty per cent, and some as
high as eighty.

FoR PEAcE-1he Boston Post pubsshe es
a letter from ex President Pierce, in which
the following paragraph occurs:
"The very idea Of disnemberment Of the
Union has always been TO me one OF terri
BILE significance. Still if it holds place, in
the inevitable march Of time--if the noble
fabric must totter to ito fall-there is, huna-
bly hope, no inexorabse necessity that its

MINisrER BunL1NGAME.-The Washing
ton correspondent Of the New York Times,
under date of June 9TH. assigns the reason
for the refusal of the Austrian Government
to receive Mr.. Burlingame as the represen.
tative of the United States as follows:
The President is in receipt Of advices from
Austria that the government refuses to re-
ceive BurlingaineN as the represen tatiye of
the United States. The ground upon which
this insult is offered to the American peo
pie, is the fac, that Burlingame, when mem
ber of Congress, introduced bill in the
House Of representatives raising Sardinia
to first class miseiop.

KILLED IN WAR-"If we take into con
sideraton," says the learned DR.. Dick, "lhe
number not only of those who have fallen
in battle, but of those who have perished
through the natural consequence of war, it
will not perhaps, be overrating the destruc'
ton of human life, if we affirm that one
tenth Of the human race has been destroyed
by the ravages of war; and according to
this estimate, more than fourteen thousand,
millions Of human beings have been siaught-
cred in wars since the beginning of the
world" Edmund Burke went still further,
and reckoned the sum total Of its ravsges,
from the first. at no less Than tbir;y.fyo
thousand millions.

An OLp FRIEND OF TIE RAILRoAD.-One
of The editors of the Portland, Oregon Ad

that ."tjec. vas the Pacific Railroad. This
enterprise, says the Advertiser, was then re-
earded 'as the great means Of securing onr
territory upon this coast, and ultimately
establishing vast trade with the Asiatc
countries. The ndefatigabIe an Intelligent
Whitney had made his explorations AS far
as the big bend OF the Missoua River, and
he was enlh4siaslir about the ultimate sue
cess of the magnificent undertaking. The
poor man! he sleeps in death after having
expended patrmony in his efforts to inii
cate the route, and to awaken n slolhful g>v
ernment to ap appreciation 9f his great en-
terprise."

DEMOCRATS REMEMBER-That more Of

hurl back the epilhet into their teeth, and
hold them responsible at the bar of public
opinion for the huge crime they have com
mitted against their country and humanity.
