RAYMoND's MILL.-0n Friday of last week
during our stay in Placerville, we accepted
the offer of ride-for which. we are indebt-
ed to " Pike" of the firm of Drake & Co.
and cantered out over the divide and up
Granite creek to the steam quartz mill of Col.
H. H. Raymond. We found the mill running
and in excellent order, crushing at the rate Of
fifteen tons per day, at which rate she had
been going day and night without intermis-
sion for twelve consecutive days. As Col. R.
was at the time busily engaged in his Office,
Col O'Neil did us the honor of showing and
explaining the workings of the machinery
which in the beginning we may as, well say
is as complete and runs as smoothly as any
similar work we have ever visited during a
sixteen years residence in a mining country.
The mill carries ten stamps, each weighing
nearly six hundred pounds, each stamp crush
ing its tun and a half daily. The engine is
very complete and only exhausts about half
its power in driving the machinery, though a
patent crusher, or saw breaker," as the COL
styles it, is being attached, and when ready
to run will increase the amount crushed to
two tuns to the stamp. This new invention
is intended to prepare therock for the battery
breaking it into pieces near the size of
pea They are, and have been from the be-
ginning, crushing rock from the Pioneer lode, |
though the mill is built for custom work and
will crush for all who desire its services The |
Lawyer, Golden Gate, and some half DOZEN
other lodges, are situated in the immediate |
neighborhood of the mill, and will each in |
time furnish its quota towards keeping it at
work. In addition to the mill, with its well
arranged wells, pumps, spouts, shaking tables,
etc, etc, Col. Raymond has erected veryl
comfortable dwelling and boarding house for
the operators, and perhaps the bestand most
comfortable hewed log stable in the county,
to say nothing of wood houses, chicken
honses, well houses, corrals, &C. Thepremises
into which the visitor finds himself suddenly Ii
lshered out of dense, wild and uncultivated
forest, have all the seeming Of the heart of
a manufacturing city, and by contrast with
she surroundings Of the place, fill the mind
With wonder and admiration. Three months
ago and all was perfect wilderness where
low are built up all these Improvements; and
hree years ago there is no evidence that
ghite man had ever seen the stream whereon
hey are located. @ III

STAGING.-We take this occasion to speak
of the enterprise of Messrs. Greathouse &
Co ,proprietors of the stage line between
this city and Placerville, from whose hands
through their polite and accommodating Pla-
cerville agent, Jos. Z. Allison, Rsg., we were
the recipients Of valuable favors during re-
cent tour. of the basin. Henry Greathouse
and Sam Kelly are now sole proprietors Of
this line, having purchased the interest Of
Messrs. Cornish and Warren. It lis their in
tention as early as practicable TO so change
the road between the Summit House and
Huntington's as to avoid the summit hill,
which will not only add to the comfort of
travellers but increase the speed and shorten
the time between this city and Centerville.
Some Of the finest teams in the country are
running on this road, and Billy Hice and
Charley know how to hold them level and let
them scoot. Charley had the misfortune to
run over a horseman aud throw him over the
grade one day in coming down the hill into
Spanish Gulch, but he declares he is sorry,
and, as footed his horn 10 tinrs and the
man didn't heed it, kedoes not feel altogeth-
err guilty, particularly as the man Was7not
much hurt nevertheless he viii try and
avoid similar accidents in fnture.s Clark, of
the CenterVille and Hog 'Emlline, lis also run
ming very regularly, and is quite as acoouimo-
dating as the former, Weqhandled the rib
bons over this line one trip, while Clark used
the whip, and the way we flew over pine hills
and narrow grades from Pioneer City to Cen
terVille wOuld'have unsettled the nerves of
the staid old denizens of valley lands, Stage
projectors and drivers have their troubles
like other1nsh, ibut9then they have their fur,
and taken all in all it is about as happy a life
70 lead as any Of the nnnumbered host Of
allotted to man.

I PLAeERvI1LE, CBNTERyILLE AND Hoo
'EM-A short visit to these camps during
theJweek. gives US a better idea Of the doings
and prospects of theminers of the basin than
We ,'otherwise obtain. AT Centerville
Ib98intssapp very quiet, more 50 in fact
thah.itreally is. The miners dependent on
Centerville for supplies are more scattered
and cover larger district Of ground in pro-
portion to the size of the town than any 9th
Ter in the basin. Harry Ellsworth and his
partner, Mr.. Fuller, keep the Stage House
Fashion Restaurant--and. were crowded With
patrons. At Hog 'EmAPioneer City-the
people are more concentrated, and, notwith-
standing there are fewer people there than
on the OCCASION of our last VISIT there are
still a. sufficient number to render the place
quite lively. Placeryille wears Sunday ap-
pearapee, owing perhaps to the moral infu-
ence 7exerted}by che city fathers, under whose
benign control the city. government is a sue
cess, and5rogues and rioters have no show
whatever. John A,Douglas, of Pioneer City,
and Louie Bufthy, of Placerville, have our
thanks for polite attentions in the eating and
sleeping line. They both keep good accom-:
modations. About all hatfintend to 20 be-
low to winter have gone from all the camps,
and Preparations for winter are visible
throug hout the camps. Crimes Creek affords
water lie greater abundance than any of-thel
other streams, and as consequence the min
ers are doing better on that creek than anYl
where else in the country, though Cratic and
Wolf Creeks are affording remunefatiye en-
ployment for several hundred men.

SKELETON FoUND.--A gentleman by the
name of Henry Buckingham broughtinto our
Office, on Tuesday, a small leather-covered
pass-book, which be recently picked up 80
miles west Of the City of Rocks, some two
mile s from the emigrant road. The skeleton
of man was also found at the same time
and place, or portion of one, consisting of
the thigh, skull and jaw-bones. Some arti-
cles of clothing were also found in the vicin-
ity, and as the shirt had three distinct knife
cuts in it, Mr.. B. came to the conclusion that
a-murder had been committed, but by whom
or upon whom of course it will be difficult to
ascertain. A portion of the hair was picked
up, and is now, together with the memoran-
dunn book;ln our possession. The book con-
tains the current expenses Of the owner from
March 9Th to June 10, 1864, embracing meals,
bread, etc., etc Humboldt river is several
times written in the book, as well as Lanca8-
ter, and the name of john E. Atkins The
hair found on the ground is black, or nearly
SO, and the finder informs US that there were
three teeth missing in front from the jaw
bone. The only clue to the name of the I'M
fortunate man is found in receipt, accom-
the book, which reads as follows;

of 7. Dorrenback, $40 for one months rent,
paid in advance, for room in B street.

G. B. Ross1, Agent"
Mr. Buckingham, on his way here, was
by some emigrantg on Snake river,
that they had met two men in the neighbor-
hood Of City Rocks, on the 18th Of June, one
Of them riding on bay and packing gray
horse, and as the memorandums cease on the
18th of June-City Rocks being the last
place they mentioned in his travels-it is al
together likely that these men were the muir
lerer and the murdered man, or it may be
hat they were both murdered by Indians.
We have been thus explicit in order if foul
,lay has been shown, if possible to throw
ome light upon the matter, whereby the
guilty may in time be brought to justice, and
n order likewise to enable the friends Of de-
eased to learn his sad fate.

FUNERAL OF CAPT. DARRAH.-The fu-
neral services over the remains of Capt.
Samuel Darrah, late of the 10th regi-
menl Vermont volunteers, took place at
Poultney, on Thursday at o'clock = m.
At an early hour the citizens of Poult-
ney began to assemble at the M. E.
church, and long before the hour APP
pointed for the commencement of the
services had arrived, the house was
denscly crowded with those who had
come to mingle their heartfelt sympathy
with the bereaved family that had been
so suddenly called to mourn for one they
loved for one who had freely given up
his life for his country and liberty.
After singing by the choir, prayer was
offered by the Rev. Mr.. Starks of Poult-
ney. The Rev. Mr.. Stebbins of Poultney
then delivered an impressive sermon.
He was followed by Henry Clark, Esq,
of Poultney, and by j. s. Adams OF Bur-
lington, in appropriate remarks to the
memory Of him who calmly sleeps in the
patriots grave. The remains were fol-
lowed to the grave by large process

A delegation of citizens from Burling-
ton was present.

the door of the Union party with the
usual billet, requesting that they be
taken in, as they have no friends in
this country" This is written in the
copperhead hand. The basket is cop
perhead, though the lace and gauze are
abolition. The appeals for help for the
little sufferers are from the copperheads.
On inquiry we learn that the bills were
all paid by copperheads. We therefore
conclude that if a warrant were issued
the copperheads could be bound to sup.
port their offspring. That is enough
