! MUNCHAtsEN OUTDoNE.-The San Fran
cisco BuIlstin,by publishing without comment
virtually indorseS the following:
"THE IDAHO GOLD SENSATION. THE ORR
ER SIDE OF THE STORY. Peoria Ill.)
]IaiI Of the 18th February says:
MI. Chase, who left Iowa some two years
since, on a tour to the land of gold, has just
returned. From Z. Clarkson, mail agent on
the Bureau Valley railroad, who conversed
with him, we gather few facts that may be
interesting and valuable to our readers.
Mr.. Chase, in company with his brother,
first went to California and wrought in the
mines IN that country. Leaving there, he
went to Idaho, where he arrived in October
last, and stayed there about q month,
leaving some time in November. He says
the mines in California are much richer than
those of Idaho-that in the latter CouHtry
they occupy a very limited space, and are
poor at that. 1t was estimated that $4,000
men in Idaho were out of employment, and
everything exhorbitantly high, The climate
is cold, and they have ice there in August. 1t
is nothing uncommon to have four or five feet
of snow, which lasts all through the winter.
The best road to Idaho, Mr.. Chase thinks, is
by the way of Salt Lake City, then across the
country on mules. By this means party
could get in advance Of the large emigration
already on the way, which would be a very
desirable thing for those who valued the good
condition Of their animals. The cry of rich
mines in Idaho is all for speculation. The
pufs and notices in the newspaper are paid
for by spectators. There are no rich mines
there as represented. No man can make his
living by mining in Idaho
The course pursued by such blind guides
of the public would be amusing, were. it not
for the serious errors into which they seek to
betray multitudes Of people. The climate,
and mineral resources Of Idaho, are
known to too many thousands Of persons in
California, on the Pacific coast, and in the
Atlantic States, to be unfaVorably affected by
such pitiful, mendaciOus subterfuges. The
above extract is certainly far beyond any in
stance of public embroidery Of truth on rec
ord, and may safely set be down as one of
the most splendid samples of solid lying ex-
tant X. x.

SPEAKNG.-Some of the grandest flights
Of .Oratory that ever walked the echoes of
these old hills, were heard at the corner Of
Main and Wall streets, on Sunday afternoon.
The Cooperation /" was under consideration,
and the weight Of argument appeared to be
against it. The orators were inspired with
spiritual JUNCTION, and the crowd was attracted
BY the noise. One cid man bearing the I'M
erring mark Of at least sixty years, addressed
his hearers as, /" Miners; great miners! /,
myself, am great MINER" SAID he. ]" But
DIN yoa.r uncultivated souls" continued the
impassioned speaker, "you don't comprehend
my meaning, Notwithstanding you know who
I am that speaks to you" This outburst Of
feeling and sentiment brought down the
house, and kick brought down the stand
and speaker.

" INDEPENDENT" writing from Centerville,
on the 5th of April, asks why the County
Commissioners rejected the bids of DR.. Dan

No one, he says, will doubt the Dr.'s ability

The LANDoN LODE, some two or three
miles from this place, in northeasterly di-
rectiOn, is proving itself to be one Of the
richest lodges in the country. Mr.. Landon
has furnished us specimen of the rock after
submitting il to the action of FIRE in order to
render it easy to crush, and all who have ex-
amined it pronounce it as fine specimen as
they ever saw; glObules of gold stand out all
over it, and on breaking it, the same eviden-
Ces of immense richness present themselves
throughout tie whole mass. The owners are
only prospecting it as yet, and in order to do
SO as thoroughly as possible, they have rugged
sledge-hammers and spring-poles, and have
N this way crushed twelve sacks of rock con-
tanning each in the neighbOrhood of 100 lbs,
mad as the result, have cleaned up S277 80,
or $23, Is to the sack. 1t takes man about
three days in this manner, after burning the
rock, to pulverize two sack-fulls. Some Sc.
lected rock from this ledge, crushed in NOR
tar made Of quicksilver tank, yielded 3 dol
lar to the pound. We will take pleasure in
exhibiting the specimen furnished US to those
who are skeptical as to che richness of the
Landon lead, that they may be convinced.
