SPRING CREEK MILL-Tbis mill is, as we
believe. surrounded by good lodes yet with
the present imperfect machinery for saving
the gold, but small profits are realized up to
date. We suppose this mill, like others,
must go through all the various phases of ex-
perience before large pay is had. The un
wonted drouh has left the Company short OF
water, so that now they are running only
about one half of their stamps. A little more
water and experience, and success will attend
tbs enterprise.

Race Rocks. wishing to visit Victoria and
having no boat on hand wherewith to make
the passage. availed himself Of u large DRIFT

pose. Procuring a shinsle, he pushed the
log into the.water and seated himself npon IT..
actually padded with the shingle to Victoria,
meeting with no mishap, not e, en- wetting.
and reached this city about o'clock in the

German has moored his faithful log in James

THE LASTING INFAMY.-Grace Greenwood,
in her late lecture in Chicago, drew the fol-
lowing picture of the future:
Back in these troublous times will our
children look with reverence and awe. The
sons of our brave soldiers will date their pat
ents of nobility on grander battle fields than
Agincourt or Bannookbnrn such patents of
nobility as no royal herald's Office has sym
hols sufficiently glorious for. Many coat of
arms in those days will haveo sleeve hang
ing empty. We may picture to ourselves a
group OF noble young lads. some ten years
hence, thus proudly accounting for their or
phanage-which the country should see are
not left desolate: Says ONE My father fell
in beating back the invaders at Gettysburg" !"
Says another. My father fell on Lookout
