Too much credit cannot be given to Hon. Alonzo
ssuland, and Mr. Philip Cleary. who own the first
two extensions east from the discovery claims on
the Haepser d Liddle for their untiring efforts in
tracing the ledge in that direction and giving an
impetus to successful prospecting, and to Messrs.
Dunlap. Peterson and Davis, who subsequently
traced it westward four thousand feet from the
discovery claims. TO the eastward of the discov-
cry claims in the direction of Meadow Greek the
ledge is large and thoroughly opened. To the
westward rising the mountain, small amounts of
rich ore have been found almost the entire dis
tance with perfect and well defined castings, giv-
ing unmTstakable evidence OF the original ledge
The castings of the Haepser l. Liddle and Daniel
Boone are full and perfect, composed of decayed
quartz oil clayey nature The dip of the ledges
forty.6ve degrees. Some of the ore contains about
equal value of gold and silver, in other portions
the silver greatly predominates.
Several other discoveries have been made show
ing rock of greater u less richness. upon which
nRn are now prospecting with ardent hopes of
velop our mining district and make it formidable
rival for any on the coast.

WHEN YOU'RE DOWN.


What legions of friends always bless us,
" hon golden success lights our wayl
How they smile as they softly address us,
so cordial, good humored and gayi
But ah! when the sun of prosperity
Hath set. then how quickly they frown,
Aud cry out in tones Of severity
Kick the man, don't you see he is down."
What though, when you knew not sorrow,
Your heart was open as day,
And your friends. WREN they wanted tC borrow,
You obliged aud meier asked them to pay.
What though not soul you ere sighted,
As yon wandered about through The town.
Your friends" become very short-sighted,
And don't seem to see when you're down,
When you're "up" you are loudly exalted,
Ano traders all sing out your praise;
When you're down" you are greatly defaulted,
And they "really don't fancy your Ways"
Your style was Tip top" when you'd money,
Sc sings every sucker and clown,
BIZ now It's exceedingly funny
Things are altered because you are down."
OH give me the heart that forever
Is free flCm this worlds selfish rust
And the soul whose high, noble endeayor
is to raise fallen man flGm the dust;
And when in-adversity's ocean
victim is likely to odroWn,
All hail to the flieud whose devotion
Will lift up man when he's down.

The CosT OF SENDING A MAN TO HELL.-A
| Maltese fshmonger was fined SIS in the Police
Court this morning for telling DIR. John B
| Rice to ego to hell" Dr. Rice is portly
| high-toned Englishman of the bantam breed
mot the bantam fowl but Bantam of the
ladipose tissue,) and carries with him the
| dignified bearing which properly belongs to
250 pounds aVoirdupois. He does not appear
TO have the most exalted idea of Maltese fish
mongers, and is in the habit ESQ they swore1
of addressing them indiscriu.inately by the
very common but not over select appellation
of John" The Doctor testified that this
was the name bestow ed by foreigners upon
all Maltese and Italians, not to say China
men; Out that is neither here nor there.
One Maltese at least wouldn't stand it, and
when the Doctor called him "John,n he re-
piled "my name is not john" The Doctor
insisted upon calling him John the second
time, whereat the Maltese sent him to hell as
aforesaid. The Doctor did not go 10 hell as
bid-the burning insult of the fshmonger
had sufficiently scorched his feelings already
but he incontinently left the market and sued
out warrant for Johns" arrest. The
charge was, "using vulgar and obscene
language which the law declares a amis-

that telling man to go to help was rs
much as if one should say, "get out of the
way" don't bother me !" Ego to thunder;''
'go to the devi;' or any other expression OF
that kind that didn't really mean anything.
"Where is hell?" triumphantly asked the
counsel; what is it?-can any one tell p
who knows anything about? There are as
many different ideas of hell as there are Diff

In the words of Milton:
The mind is its own place. and in itself
Can make heaven of hell, hell of heaven.
It was absurd to arraign his client before
court for such an expression. 1t was used
every day. and nobody but DR.. Rice ever
thought of constituting it literally" He
moved the discharge of the fshmonger.
The Court could not agree with Counsellor
Zabriskie in this view OF the matter. With
out entering into a discussion as to what
bell really was or where it was, the Court
was of the opinion that the expression ego
to help was at least vulgar expression it
was not usually deemed compliment to
man to tell him to go to hell, and the COM
mon understanding of the phrase would
bring it under the definition of vulgar and
profane language. 'Let the defendant pay

SUCCESSFUL EDlToR.-An English writer
says: IA good editor, a competent news
paper conductor, is like general or poet,
born, not made. Exercise and experience
give facility, but the qualification is innate,
or it is never manifested. On the London
daily papers all theg great historians, novelists,
poets, essayists, and the writer's of travel,
have been tried, and nearly every one has
failed. can," said late editor of the Lon
don Times, find any number ofmen ofgenius
to write for me, but very seldom one man of
common sense" Nearly all successful editors
are of this description. A good editor seldom
writes much for his paper be reads, judges,
selects, dictates, alters, and combines, and to
do all this well he has but little time for COM
position. To write for paper is one thing

GRAVE joke:
Between Yreka and Jacksonville, Oregon,
there was wedding last Winter-about the
time of the deep snow, when Dr. Pelham and
others of our citizens were corraled in that
cold country. The families of the respect

their wives and babies, and everybody that
happened to be stopping anywhere within
accessible distance. 1t was very pleasant
a fair, but, like all similar assemblages, it
dispersed, and the bride retired to her cham
Der, first having whispered to the fond hns-

ticking o'clock pass the limit by a second, ere

Joined. Rapping gently at the bridal cham
ber door, and receiving no reply, he entered
unbidden, and saw his wife lying on the bed,
arrayed in night-gear of the purest white,
presenting a picture of beauty, taste and
loVeliness beyond comparison. Onestep for

his heart again-she was dead He loudly
called for help. Father, mother, bridesmaids
all the household rushed to the ROOM The
mother saw that her daughter still breathed;
but horrors upon horrorSl there lay the empty
vial from which the fatal draught had been
taken. Messengers were dispatched for ply
sicians; the patient was rubbed and baihed,
and hopes were entertained of her revival,
symptoms looking favorable. At this juno
ture, some one picked up a piece of folded
paper from the table, on which was written,
in the delicate hand of the fair young bride:
