FROM Mr.. Theodore Miller
called al our Office this morning, Just in
from the Alpine silver region. He states
that the reported removal of the Pioda
mill, at Markleville. is entirely unfounded !;
and that on the contrary, the mill will
shortly rire up, and work on the ore of
several mines which have been taking out
rock all winter, and only waiting for the
roads to get into suitable condition for
hauling. The Morning Star claim, at
Mosul. has been storing excaVated rock
all winter, ready to be transported TO the
Pioda mill. In about month the roads
will be in order. and hauling will COM
mence. The tunnel of the Morning Star
is seven hundred feet in length. The
Good Hope Company has also been doing
similar work during the winter. The lat
ter mine is four miles from the mill, and
the Morning Star about nine miles. The
people Of Alpine county anticipate q
lively season over there this year, and they
have our best wishes for their success.
The Whitesides mill will also start up
shortly, with rock from the Xxi Com.
pany's mine.

AFr,ah,ap.d Rail,

In the British House OF Commons re-,
Gently, member inquired Of the Secretary
for Foreign Affairs, if America had de-
manded compensation for the spoliations
of the Alabama and other piratical cruis-
ers. The Secretary said no such demand
had been made within six months past;
which means that demand of the kind
was made six months ago. John Bright
put another question which is very sisni.
ficant. He asked the Home Secretary If
Government had not received and present
ed number of such claims from English.
men. The response was yes. The
plain meaning of this answer Is that
there are Englishmen who have lost
by rebel pirates built and fitted out in
England. and that these Englishmen
believe the Government laid itself liable
for spoliations committed, if not in
strict law, at least in equity. This
is doubtless the correct view, and if the
British Government is responsible to its
own subjects. it follows that it must also
be to the subjects or citizens of other
nations. That is to say, in making this
demand our Government has the right on
its side. The only question remaining,
then, is, have we the will and the power
to exact the right: This is the question
which now agitates the London Times.
1t says the point to which England must
address herself is simply whether the
United States can enforce her demand for
damages; whether she "can 60 to war
with fair prospects of success" and the
Times believes "if we can we will" A
guilty soul needs no accuser. The Times
and the British Government know they
are in the wrong, liable for damages, and
therefore they fear that damages will be
exacted. We trust their fears are well
grounded. England should be made to
pay for every dollars worth of American
property destroyed by the Alabama.-
Stockton Independent.

Now that the news Of the fall of Rich
mond and Petersburg has been fully con-
frmed by the latest dispatches from Wash
ington, we can all rest easy and take our
wind at leisure. But thoughts and sur.
misses of he situation will necessarily
spring up-for the public appetite has
been sharpened to its highest pitch-as to
where Lee and his defeated army has fed
to, because we are told that they left Rich
monf and Petersburg, after several days
hard sighting. They left, bag and bag
gage. but where are they goings Johnston
Hfias fallen back to Raleigh. Will the
rebels sttempt a concentration there, or
retreat farther westwards If they con-
centrate at Raleigh, Sherman may have
some hard fighting before him but he has
formed junction with SchoEeld and Ter.
~, and he is an old hand at that sort Of
business. The sight Of Sherman, Scho-
field and Terry, was too much for John
son at Raleigh, North Carolina, and
offered hut a poor refuge for the fleeing
rebels from Virginia. A dispatch from
Goldsboro. dated on the I'd of April,
states that the rebels had completed their
preparations TO evacuate Raleigh; and
that al! departments Of the State Govern
mens hare been removed to Greensboro,
as well as all surplus military stores.
Lees army cannot possibly reach Mobile,
because that city is already invested by
the Federals, both on land and by the
monitors on its ws.ny 'front.'. Whatever
direction Davis and l.. may have taken,
after Trey were driven out of Richmond,
our latest advices inform us that Grants
army, with the intrepid Sheridan and his
thousands OF gallant cavalry, were upon
the heels OF the retreating rebels, and
either driving them pell-mell, making
them fight, or taking them prisoners. If
Sherman had not defeated Johnston be-
fore Lee was compelled to resign Peters
burg and Richmond, the rebel chiefs
might have attempted to combine their
forces for general battle near Raleigh or
Greensboro; but we believe the effect of
their disastrous defeat and the activity of
Grant, will either battle this effort to con-
centrata, or overwhelm the united corps
of the enemy wherever they may risk a
pitched battle. But whatever they may
attempt in that direction will be on the re-
turn of forlorn hope. for the end draws
nigh; the rebellion is done for. The
evacuation or capture Of Richmond Of
course involved the fall of Petersburg.
The great triumph on the James, it is true,
adds little to the area in possession of the
National forces, but much to the enthusi-
asm of the soldiers and the power of the
army, while it weakens the rebels in cor
respondent manner. The extensive for
ti6cations are Of little use to US, but they
were valuable to the enemy, and by hav-
ing them we command positions of vast
importance for further military operations.
According to the last National census,
there were, in 1860, sixteen cities with
more than fifty thousand inhabitants each
in the United States, and of these only
two New Orleans and Charleston-are
within the limits of the rebel States. Both
of those are now in our possession. We
