HIGHLAND GULCH.-The news from this
region is very encouraging, and many parties
are starting for it day and night. Nearly 500
men are searching for its hidden riches, and
many have been very successful. Bill Fair
weather, (of course, it is needless to say that
he discovered Alder Gulch,) was in town
last Saturday and claims that it is Ten miles
long, and equal in richness to his discovery
The bedrock appears to be composed ofwhite
sandstone which assemblies that of Australia
The dust is coarse, and many nuggets have
been picked up, although none Of them are
of great value, the largest being worth $40
The diegings are shallow and it is only FIVE
or eight feet from the surface to the bed rock
The miners have not been disturbed by water
We have been told that descendant Of Ham,
who owns desirable ground, has refused
$4,000 for it. There is quite a stampede
for this gulch and its merits wrl be clearly
known within few days.-WontanG Post

Leaf by Leaf the Roses Fan.

Leaf by leaf the roses fall,
Drop BY drop the springs run down
One by one, beyond recall,
Summer beauties fade and die
But the roses bloom again,
And the springs will gush anew,
In the pleasant April rain,
And the Summers sun and dew.
So, in hours Of deepest gloom,
When the springs in glAdness fall,
And the roses in the bloom
Droop like maidens, wan and pale,
We shall find some hope that lies
Like Silent gem apart,
Hidden far from careless eyes,
In the garden of the heart.
Some sweet hope 70 gladness wed,
Tiki SFTfuB utreou auu new
When griefs winter shall have fed,
Giving place to rain and dew
Some sweet hope that breathes of Spring
Through the weary, weary time,
Budding for its bios oming
In the spirits glorious cline.

AS a healthful drink in place of tea, DR..
Thompson recommends the use of dried leaves
of the Red Raspberry. They cleanse the system
of canker and thus act benefcially to the health
The leaves should Be gathered on dry day and
may be spread in good airy chamber, on clean
boards or paper, to dry. When sufficiently dry,
they may be kept 10 sacks. A small handful is
sufficient for several persons. This tea does not
require the addition of milk or sugar, and is
quite as pleasant as other tea, and much cheap
er and healthier.
