R,cvx,,v The granite bu;Is;,.

RECENTLY the new granite building on
California street, owned BY California Building
Association, was formally opened, by being
thrown oper to friends of the direction, where
wit and vine flowed freely.
The Building and Loan Society is DOW a
Joint Stock Company. having four hundred
partners. pine Managing Directors, including
President ard Secretary. Its capital is $780,
900 in shares of Sl00 each. None of this
capital stock can be withdrawn until the ter
mina,ion OF its character some forty FIVE years
hence. 1t was founded in 1861 by Mr.. Moon
ey. It's present worthy President, to assist
humble and industrious persons to erect their
dwellings, especially in the suburbs of the
city. for that class of people who required aid,
advice and restraint, to compel them TO save.
The Institution has been great success.
Hundreds of families have. BY its aid, possessed
themselves of comfortable homesteads. where
health. cleanliness, and independence, have
been obtained in exchange for the back alley
lodging.
The Society has now purchased and fitted
out in magnificent style, one of the most ele-
CANT banking houses in San Francisco. 1t is
q large four story brick building. The front
is of hammered granite, with iron doors and
shutters. fire proof all over.

Mineral Wealth of Butte.

CoScow VALLEY, April %, 1866
EDITOR REcoRp :-Presuming that any
thing relating to the mineral resources Of Butte
county, would be regarded by you as an item
worthy of publication, and of interest to the
people generally. And knowing that the opin-
ion has prevailed to a considerable extent, that
the quartz mining interest was failure in this
county, and could never be revived, am in
duced to give you the resalt of my recent little
quartz mining operations; also expression to
the honest opinion that we have been living in
a dark age in this county. and that day is just
beginning to dawn npon the quartz mining in
terest.
Although my operations were conducted on
. small scale. the result was big, and is truth
and fact. A short time since business called
me to Mesilla Valley, where in consequence of
the late severe storm. was compelled to re-
main for several days. During the time. and
for want of other employment. made several
assays of rock from the Burnham ledge and
was perfectly astonished at the result. having
pearance of free gold, as high as five grains of
gold from two ounces of rock This by rough
calculation is about twenty-four hundred dol
lars per ton. In all the tests made l never
failed to obtain good prospect.
1t is singular that men will spend their time
money and health in seeking for wealth in fur
of regions. when without doubt there are
much better chances at home. Ii confidence
in the mineral resources OF our county could
be revived. it would give life and zest 10 every
department of business. Let our people quit
rearing and tearing through the brush,' as
they did in the golden days OF 40 and so. and
show up our mineral resources as equal if no,
superior to any on the Pacific slope.
Respectfully yours.

PLUMAs WAGON ROAD PRoPosIrIoSs.-The
people Of Plumss county. uuder the provisions
Of an Act passed at the late session of the
Legislature, have 40 election on Tuesday, May
lst, at which the sovereigns of that county are
to determine whether the county shall issue its
bonds to the amount of one hundred thousand
dollars, to cid 10 the construction of the follow
ing roads The Quincy and Indian Valley
Wagon Road. commencing at the town Of
Quincy, thence down Spanish Creek and up
Indian Creek to Indian Valley in Plumas
county; also: The Quincy and La Porte
Wagon Road. commencing at the town Of
Quincy, and running thence r,a Nelson Point,
Dickson Creek and Onion Valley, 10 said coun
~, to La Porte in Sierra county; also The
Orovllle and Beckwith Pass Wagon Road,
hereafter to be located and constructed under
the provisions and grants contained in an Act
passed at this session Of the Legislature, enti-
tied "An Act to provide for the construction
Of . Wagon Road from the town Of Oroville
iu the county Of Butte to Beckwish's Pass in
Plumas county"
Judging from the Quincy Union OF the 2lst
instant, the people of Pumas are fully awake
to the importance Of these roads. and will on
Tuesday. roll up decided majority in favor of
their construction. 1t will be seen by the
above extract that, if these roads are opened,
the rich mineral asd agricultural county Of
Plumas, will be accessible from all points, and
q bright and prosperous future will await ber.
Plumss, with the recent accessions to her ter
ritory, needs only the completion of these wag-
on roads to enable her to rank among the
richest and most important counties of the
State.
The franchise for constructing the wagon
road from Oroville to Beckwith's Pass, has
been granted by an Act of the Legislature to

Oh ! Colusa !! Coiusa !

IDAHO WANTS A MINT, and from the report
of their committee appointed to collect statis-
tics, maps, etc, to be sent to Congress in con-
cection with their application, we learn that
there are eight mills in South Boise, with a
total of l34 stamps, the yield of which for the
present year is set down at "a 500 OOO From
Owyhee they report ten mills with total Of
102 stamps, which are represented as having
run as q whole $40 days, yielding 81 l,463,755
"a, yielding on an average $l42 IS, for every
ton of rock crushed. This is very good
showing, and We hope it is not above the mark.

Oroville and Rich Bar Wagon Road.

PLEASANT VALE, April Is, 1866.
Mr.. EDITOR old Hard Times is going
to talk on another subject this week, aud one
that ought 10 interest every man, woman and
child in the county and that is a road below
the deep snow line into and through Plumas
county. This road is needed very much and
ought to be made. | know of no better route
than the one pointed out by your correspond
ent, "Observer," r;G Yankee Hill, Concow
Valley, Flea Valley, and thence following the
dividing ridge to Little Rock Creek, at or
near North's; thence bearing south to Big
Rock Greek, where there is little difficulty,
but not so much but what can be overcome
From thence is low swag. through which
Rich Bar can be reached at less expense than
usually attends the construction of mountain
roads.
do not wish 20 intrude upon your space !;
but had not seen anything in your columns for
some time on the road question, and began to
think the thing was dying out. Now this is a
matter that ought to be kept constantly before
the people. Other sections of the county have
good roads, and here is practicable route for
one below the deep snow line, that can be
travelled at all seasons Of the year, to ard from
the rich but undeveloped country north of US
And shall it be like an island crag cleft from
the main? Have the people gone to sleep :?
Have the counties interested folded their arms
and said, "a little more sleep, little more
sumber p Come wake up! Arouse from
your lethargy, The garden wall is falling
down, and the cattle will soon be amoug your
vines and destroy your vineyard

AGRICULTURAL FAIR-It is stated that the
Trustees of the Northern District Agricultural
Society, met in Marysville on Wednesday. to
arrange for holding fair the present season.

practicable to the District society. The
products of Butte county are unexcelled in
quality or quantity, and it is not policy to keep
them hidden under bushel, until they can be
smuggled into market.
