THE AUGUSTA STATE HOUSE, The fol-
lowing instructive account the miscalcula-
ton and extravaganza, which characterized
the erection of the Capitol at Augusta, is
drawn from the notice of Governor Smiths
administration in Mr. Willis's recently pub
lished Courts and Lawyers of Maine:
The Legislature commenced It's first session
at Augusta, in January, 1892: on which ocea-
sion, the chief magistrate, in his annual mes
sage, congratulated the people "upoli the
possession of a capitol, which is an ornament
to the State, and in beauty of materials and
style OF execution, inferior TO no building for
similar purpose among our sister States. y
The building and furniture cost something
over one hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars but TO raise this sum ten townships of
land had been appropriated, seven of which
were sold for forty-five thousand two hundred
and thirty dollars, sixty cents, or an average
price of twenty-nine and half cents per acre.
The other three sold at less price the whole
fell far short OF meeting the expenditure, or
even the estimate of its cost by the architect,
Charles Bulinch of Boston. which was eighty
thousand dollars. Mr.. Bulhnch was the
architect who planned and constructed the
Boston State House, having for his model ST.
Peters Church at Rome, which he had visited.
Our State House was copy of that of Massa-
chusetts, on smaller scale.

SAN FRANCISCO March %.
Several exploring parties have returned from
the new gold, silver and copper mines border
ing on the Colorado river. They express con-
fidence that this region will rival the Washoe
mines and exhibit specimens of ore which are
surprisingly rich.
The interior papers continue to publish bio
graphical notices OF many OF the parties cap
tured in this harbor on the pirate schooner
Chapman, showing them to be all noted seces-
sionists. The prisoners are still at Fort Alca-
tras, having undergone military examination,
with what result the public are uniformed.
SAN FRANCISCO, March "a
The mining excitement continues undated
over the entire coast. The rage of the day is
for Boise river, $50 miles east of Carson,
where the Washoe excitement of 1s59-60 is
being repeated. Probably 1900 or 5000 miners
will reach the new district before June A
town of $50 houses, with regular streets, has
been laid out and built within six weeks
The mining district is believed to be extern
sive, and to contain both silver and gold.

FORTRESS MONROE. March Is.
Four German families arrived this morning
at Fortress Monroe from Richmond, via. York
town. They report that the prevailing opinion
in Richmond is that the rebels will soon evac-
uate that city, and probably most of Virginia.
Freedom of speech is mueh less restricted
there than formerly. They bring no news
from Charleston, but say the rebels were ex-
pecting an attack upon that city daily. Pro-
visions were exceedingly high in Richmond,
and wages correspondingly high for mechan-
les. They came out of the Confederacy under
foreign protection. In Richmond oranges and
lemons were recently sold at auction for SIS
per box.
Two guards at Chattahoochie bridge, in at

and also those who are cashiered by court
