RIcH BAR QuARrz The Plumas Standard
says: This famous old camp, where placer
diggings the richest ever known, once greeted
the eyes and tickled the fingers of the then
unappreciative miner. seems to contest the
palm, even in quartz, with other celebrated
localities in this county. Through the kind
ness Of Mr., Il. W. Shepard, we are placed in
possession Of specimen from a lead, recently
discovered there. The quartz is Of pure ala
basier whiieuess, slightly crystalized, with de-
composed veins running through it. in which
gold is profusely scattered. Although seem
ingiy very fine, the precious metal is plainly
diseernable with the naked eye Nor is it as
is usual with such specimens, confined to one
side OF the rock, but turn it which way You
will, the root OF all evil s,ares You in the
face. We are pleased TO learn that our friend,
eX Senator Irwin. is one Of the lucky owners of
this ledge, and is working in his tunnel as
assidously as he ever did before election"

BAGGED THEM-Wm. Lloyd Garrison, the
hoary headed old traitor, who has for thirty
years advocated disunion and preached treason,
chuckles over the fact that he has bagged the
entire Republican institution The following
is from late number of his paper, the Liber-
ator:
The last fortnight has witnessed a marvel
lous revolution in the newspaper world. Con
servative Republican sheets like the Boston
Advertiser, Journal, and Springfield Republi-
can, have been busy for the last year proving
the worthessueSs of a proclamation. They
have denounced it as the vision of impractical
ble theorists and have praised the President
for refusing to pronounce this 'brtttum fuimen.
But the President has done the deed, and,
presto, change the party barrel organs play
new tunes. Not Saul'S conversion was more
instantaneous. They now advocate in labored
columns the wisdom ard necessity of Il procla-
nation. Has either of them a word of regret
for past opposition, or acknowledgment that
the emancipationists were right? Why, bless
you no. This is not conversion. Only a
change OF base"
The friends of John Charles Fremont will
have to do some heavy wire-pulling, or CARR
son will beat their favorite in the next Repub-
lican Convention, and get the nomination for
the Presidency. The man who denounces " the
Union as a league with hell, and the Constitu-
tiou as covenant with DEATH would make
an excellent candidate for the nigger-crazed
Constitution-defying. highor-law. blue-light and
forked tonguei aboli'ion-Republican party to
run for President. Their love for Sambo aud
Dinah is greater than their love for the frcest
and best Constitution on the face of the earth

from George Wilkes to his paper, in which be
gives what purports to be a conversation be-
tween General Mcclellan and President Lin
coin, when no other person was present Here

Now, Mcclellan" said Mr.. Lincoln, "
want TO say something to you for myself;
something that is not from the Cabinet and
that has not been prompted from any other
source. | wish to call attention to fa1lt in
your character fault which is the sum of
my observation in you, in connection with this
war. You merely get yourself ready TO DO a
good thing-no man can do that better; you
make all the necessary sacrifices of blood and
time and treasure TO secure a victory, but
whether from timidity or selfdistrust, or some
other motive inexplicable to me, you always
stop short just on this side OF results. Such
has been your history throughout this war =
This is my own remark, and | wish you, when
1 am gone, to examine yourself. and see if this
is not true -
These are, as near as may be, the words ut
tered by the President TO George B. McCel-
lam in his tent, and if any one has doubt upon
the matter, let him ask Mr.. Lincoln, or Gen
Mcclellan, on the subject"
Do You believe a word of it? don't There
are many people who fully believe that Wilkes
could forge more than that.
Our merchants have concluded that, between
themselves, gold shall be the circulating me-
dum, and let green-backs slide. Uncle Sam
has also concluded to pay here in Democratic

EXCITED CONDITION or TRADE At THE EAST
The New York Shipping List Of late date
observes:
g New York City has seldom, if ever. wit
messed snch exciting scenes IS are DOW trans
piring in the business portion of the citv. The
unprecedented advance Of gold and foreign ex-
change. recently. has stimulated the greatest
speculative demand for all descriptions of mer-
chandize, both foreign and domestic, and i'm
mense transactions are daily reported in every
department. Capitalists. who never before
thought of making venture outside of Wall
street, have recently been persuaded by the in
viting field which is now offered in the other
business marts of the city TO invest largely in
various descriptions of merchandise. not only
for the sake of participating in the immense
profits which il is supposed can be made by
the investment, bat because. in consequence of
the anomalous state of political affairs, they
can have but comparatively little opportunity
to satisfy their lougiugs for speculations in the
somewhat narrow limits of the financial ring.
The utmost activity is noticeable throughout
the ramifcations of trade. and excitement and
buoyancy everywhere obtain. Prices of near
ly all description of merchandise are merely
nominal. however, and are subjected TO hourly
fluctuations. A perusal of our regular review
of the business of the preceding three days
will amply repay the reader. Such exciting
times and such immense transactions cannot
be recalled even by the " oldest inhabitant -
of the commercial metropolis"
WELLS, FARGO & Co.-The New York
correspondent of the San Francisco Bulletin
relates the following
Wells, Fargo Il Co. have just done q
thing which rebounds greatly to their credit.
OF the treasure lost in the Golden Gate, off
Manzanillo, nearly one hundred thousand dol
lars belonged to parties in Boston, and was in
charge of the above firm, who insured the
amount to their consignees Wells, Fargo &
Co. paid the whole of these losses in gold.
(which | presume they were not legally bound
to do) the premium then being about 81 to
35 per cent. At the time of the loss gold was
selling here at u to IS per cent premium.
Doubtless this firm have paid all their losses of
gold in their charge on the same liberal scale.
although this is the only case that seems to
have found its way into print"
