would also enable all of it to be irrigated
during the dry season.
From point where the river leaves the
foothills, short distance below Sand Flat
to where it joins the Feather river, below
this city, the distance is, in a direct line,
only eleven miles, though 10y the way of the
clrcultous channel the distance is nearly
double that. Let embankments be con,
struced from the foot bills to the mouth of
the river, in direct line, regardless of the
present channel, high enough, and wide
enough apart to carry off the water of the
river during the highest food and with the
exception Of artificial feeders for supplying
lrrlgallng bitches, nature would do the rest
The cost Of a work of this kind would be
much less than most persons imagine. 1t
would reclaim and make valuable vast
tract OF country, and would, we believe
prove paying speculation for capitalists
lhe benefit to this city would be enormous,
as it would make it the center of flourish

NUMBER II.
New Methods for Saving Gold.

The reduction of the quartz, with suffi.
cient raplity, to an impal lpable powder, is
a result which a succession Of improvements
in machinery, has fully and satisfactorily
accomplished. And so great have been the
separate the gold from the triturated mass
Of ore, that lodges, which eight years ago,
would bring ruin on the workers Of them,
are now worth many thousands of dollars;
yet, at the same time, much remains 10 be
done in the mechanical and chemical treat
ment of the pulverized ore, to save anything
like all the precious metal which it contains.
A new process is about being instituted on
Osborne Hill, near this town, by Professor
Ryersou, under the patronage Of Mr.. Joseph
Woodwork, which is in subservience TO we'll
known chemical laws; and, beyond doubt,
we think, will prove so eminenty successful.
that great revolution will be brought abou.
in the working of gold ore.
If Prof Ryerson's process is crowned with
that success. which the best informed men
hereabouts will he enhanced fifty per cent.
We believe that Prof Ryerson's process, at
the preaent time, can scarcely be called an
experiment. 1t was tried a number Of months
since in the Southern mines, and so much
increased the yield of the rock per tun,
that the mine Of Judge Walsh, we'll known
here by old settlers, from scarcely paving
expenses, has become most valuable and
lucrative piece of property. The enthusiasm
with which the Professor recommends bis
new mode, is almost sufficient to give il
| complete endorsement; for, he is a man of
no less than scientific genius, and abhors
bnngling, imperfection, and failure, above all
things.
The process is essentially this: the quartz
is crushed dry to rs near an impaI pabe
powder as possible; it is then removed to
large cylinder of any required size, fitted
with convoIuted tube, and quicksilver
bath at the bottom. At pleasure, superhent,
ed steam is introduced into The tube which
as matter Of course effects the quicksilver
with instantaneous sublimaton, in which
state it ditfuses itself completely through
the mass Of matter, and Of course, invests
each particle of gold, however minute, with
coating of mercury.
The affinity of the quicksilver for the gold,
the same being exalted by a coating of itself,
is thus increased to such an extent, that when
the mass OF matter is objected to the i'm.
proved methods Of amalgamating, now in
use, but little of the precious metal escapes,
compared to what is lost by the ordinary
process Of wet washing and then of subjec.l
ing the powdered quartz to the process Of
amalgamation, without prior quicksilver d.
geston. This then is the principle: the
particles of gold being coated with mercury
the affinity of them is deceased for those Of
the accompanying mass, while it is eralted
for tho mercury, over which it is made to
pass. Our citizens will shortly have the
pleasure of seeing the process in operation
on Osborn Hill. Grass Valley National.

The Humboldt Register says there is a
large region of country there that seems to
te completely saturated with petroleum; the
liquid streams flow through the surface, and
rise to the surface wherever hole is dug
There are also quite a number of springs
from which the crude oil flows in great
abundance, and one spring discharges more
than barrel a day Companies are being
formed for working these springs, and we
notice, also, that company has been in
corporated for the purpose of working
spring at Mt. Diablo. There is plenty of
this oil in the mountains west of here, and

IMPORTANT REVENUE DECIsloS.--!n q recent
sale in New York, through q broker, of merchan-
disc, amounting to $4,000 for gold, it was
claimed the tax Of one-eighth of one per centums
on S25 could be paid in legal tender treasury
notes. The collector insisted upon the payment
of gold or its equivalent. The decision Of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue having been
requested, he replied that the question to be de-
termined was not in what medium the tax shall
be paid but upon what basis it shall be compu-
ted, adding:
IF you have sold goods for $4,000, payable
in currency or in coin then this sum is the NEAR
sure of the value of the goods sold; but if you
sold the merchandise, stipulating to receive $780,
900 in gold which is itself an article of purchase
and SALE the value of gold must first be Nsccr-
tanned. If $4,000 in gold happens to be worth
10000 in legal tender currency, the latter sum
expresses the amount of goods sold. The par OF
$50 being thus ascertained, is payable in 'Trea.
sury legal tender notes.

Amos Kendall says of Grants order to
make the Shenandoah valley barren waste
that if Gen. Grant believed the war near its
close, or even did he expect soon to take
Richmond, he would not have issued such
an order. In that event the rebel army, if
not destroyed must abandon Virginia, and
the destruction would be an injury TO him
self. Such an order, therefore, is conclusive
that Grant does not expect speedy termi-
nation of the war, even in Virginia.
