ORoDELPHrA. This is the name of new
town lately started on CaHon creek, tr;buatary
OF the south Fork of John Days river, in the
Blue mountains, from which our friend L. T
Swart writes under date Sept. 9th He says II
is about 200 miles from the Dallps, 800 from Yre.
Ea, and 10 from Auburn, Powder RIVER He fur
nisbes the following information in rega' to lbe
locality. which he says may be relied on
That there is paying diggings there he does
not doubt. Bus there so yIed old Califor-
mans on the creek who express the belief that
the diggings will pay better next season than
those of California ever did. This he says is all
bosh.' He thinks it q tolcrahly good mining
section Of limited extent that the principal pay
is on the rim rock, and that with the proper min
ing appliances from SO to Sl2 day may be re-
alzrd. The gold is cuarse-pieoes weighing
from So 10 $50 having been found. There are
fifteen hundred people on the creek. OF whom
perhaps a thousand will winter there. Gamblers
aud lrwd women abound but he is at loss to
know how they are supported, as the miners who
are actually at work do not average S6 day
aud requires that amount to live. Provisions
are high, and must continue So as pack trains
cannot reach that point from Dalles before the
last Of May. Al the time of writing water froze
every night. Mr.. Swart would leave in about
six weeks, when he would write again.

JOHN BULLS NEUTRALITY.--In unloading the
steamship Lodoaa, (Which was taken in an at
tempt to run the Charleston bockade) at Phila-
delpha, cases Of Enfield rifles were found. This
is simply another evidence of Britain's nentrali-
ty 1t may be that Johns desire for gain is
stronger than his love for The rebel Cuufedprtcy,
for it is hardly possible for him to love any thing
American, but as Mr.. Rorbuck (smafl game, by
the way) tells him that English gentlemen set
tied the South aud The scum Of Eurnne the
North, he may aud no doubt does feel IA stronger
regard for the population of Dixie, especially as
he is told that he shall be permitted to take all
bis manufactured goods iuto Southern ports free
OF duty.
