New Discoveries. The Plumas Standard
of the l7th says " The breaking of the dam
at Round Valley, an account of which we gave
last week, uncovered some qnartz lodges in the
canon which are said to be even richer than
the famous Ellis lode. No doubt exists in the
mind Of any one, who has given the subject
the least attention, that our entire county is a
perfect network of rich and inexhaustable
quartz veins, and the only ihings necessary to
render them available are labor and capital.
These, if we may judge by the number Of mills
going up this season, and the amount of veins
that are being opened, will not long be want
ing and when they get fully into operation,
we are saugu.ne that Plumas may Justly lay
claim to the title OF the banner quartz county

CANNIBALIsM At BnNNY.-By the arrival Of
the Armenian mail steamer at Liverpool
on the 18th March. we learn that when the
vessel was in the Ronnv river, on the 29th of
January last, Il report was circulated 10 the
elect that a cannlbal feast was about TO be
made IN the town, but no one gave the rumOr
credence. However. party went on shore on
the lst OF February. and were Mortified to see.
when walking through the place, no less than
live human heads, placed in the most system
atIc order on the grass, with fire close by.
and large pot ready for cooking. At another
spot close by lay arms legs. etc, IN the course
Of being prepared for the pot while an old
black woman was engaged in slicnr q human
liver for the stew Itanpears HAT previous
to the return Of King People 70 Bonay after
his long residence 10 England the population
was divided into two powerful parties, one Of
which was opposed to the Kings return: but
iatterly both parties signed a treaty that no
persons life should be sacrificed without his
being brought before his Majesty for trial.
LoyDoy TINES ON THE MONITOR. Putting
the most favorable construction on the reports
of the performances Of both ships, we DO not
perceive how the form Of either wo1ld be suia-
bic rs model for the ships OF a naval power
which pretends to maintain naval supremacy.
Neither the Confederate or the Federal ship
has that essential requisite, high velocity
Neither could keep the sea effectively during a
gale like that encountered by the Warrior
On the other hand, both are superior to our
ship in steering. Each obeyed the belm with
fecihty; but our ships of mail seem to be dis
obedicnt Then the rudder Of the American
ships Is protected apparently. whereas the helm
of the Warrior is as vulnerable as that Of
wooden liner We want a model ship as inyul-
nerable and easily handled as the Monitor, as
fast as the Warrior, with power OF sailing or
steaming at pleasure, and capable of keeping
the sea with impauity. At present the War
rior comes nearest to the model required. but
we shall be greatly surprised if British iniegr-
~ cannot improve upon that model, especially
after the experiments in action.
