Is Our Cause Just

The people of this coast, and particu-
larly of Owyhee, have been the objects
of attack by some Of the newspaper press
East, on account of their supposed inhu-
manity to the Indian. We have treated
their attacks with that contempt which
we conceived ignorance on their part, de-
served. individuals who reside at re-
mote ditance from the "hunting grounds"
Of the Indian, and who see them only as
"show," aud know nothing of their
characters, natures, customs, and modes
of warfare, should always be slow to con-
denim the treatment melted out to them
for their delinquences, by their fellow
citizens who reside among them and
know their habits. The warfare among
civilized nations, although deplored and
avoided when compatible with national
honor, has at least some of those charac-
teristics Of humanity accompanying it,
which forms relief to the horrible and
sickening picture Of human destruction.
1t may be that those who are so forward
in condcmning the indiscriminate slaugh-
ter in battle, of Indians without regard
to age or sex, arc better versed in the
system Of warfare among the existing
nations Of the earth, than they are in con
ficts with the red man upon this coast.
1t may be they have pored over the 70
mantle accounts of the manhood and hon
or of the ideal Indian of the noveist,and
base their judgments upon the same,
without that dear bought experience up
on this coast, which is purchased only in
blood and horrible barbarity. The "Phil-
FPS" and "Chingagooks" of the Pequods
and Mohicans are inhabitants of another
sphere, and people not this present world.
Kindness, protection, money, food and
raiment is lavished in great profusion, to
receive in return only the savage bullet,
scalping knife and unerring tomahawk.
Many old settlers upon this coast will
doubtless remember the treatment CT that
christian gentlemen, that natures noble
man, DR.. Whitman, devoting his life to
the cause of ameliorating the condition
of the lndiau-adrninistering specifics
for their Misunderstanding them agri-
culture, stock raising, and all the peacea-
BILE pursuits of life, and withal trying the
ever powerful influences of christianity,
receiving in return for his labors, at the
hands of the very Indians whom he had
fostered, treachery and murder. That
this is the character of the Indian upon
this coast cannot be questioned for a mo-
ment. We write not in a spirit of re-
venge, neither is our judgment warped
by the sight of the cold mutilated forms
now in our city, dressed in the habili-
ments Of the grave-victms Of Indian
hellish barbarity. We know their char

sound sense, clear logic and forcble reasoning.

Publ -sHERs BULLION Il hope that an
old miner may be permitted to write few
thoughts upon mining and mining interests
without offending your readers Having la
bored as a miner in the quartz mines of Ari-
IONA, Nevada and California, think know
q good ledge when see it; and in no spirit
of egotism. can say that think am
judge of the value of quartz lodges in 0wyhec,
Permit me then, to say that know we have
as rich lodges in this county as can be found
any where in Uncle Sans dominions, and
the only thing necessary for the successful
development of the same, is sufficient money
in the hands of our enterprising capitalists
for that purpose. When the sufficient amount
of labor is employed, all will see to their sat
isfaction the truth. of my statement. The
most of capitalists have heretofore been com
PEELED to rely upon the knowledge, or pre-
tended knowledge Of persons who have had
an interest in lodges by them held, and anx-
ous to effect sale; and this accounts for the
many failures. If the capitalist was apracti-
cal miner, and well acquainted with quartz
mining. you would record fewer failures. !
have examined many of the lodges upon the
War Eagle mountain and in Flint District,
and can safely say that have seen enough
to convince me that richer ore cannot be
found in the world than is to be found in our
county.
The Poorman is sufficiently developed to
satisfy any one that thousands of tons of pay
ing ore may be extracted therefrom. Hun
dreds of men can find employment upon this
ledge alone, owned and managed as it Is, by
men of good sound Judgment.
The Silver Chord is admitted among the
mining class, to be the next most famous
mine in the Territory. The first extension
South, ofthis mine was purchased by L. j.
Lewis, from John McNlahan, and shows a
well defined ledge on an average of four feet
wide. This ledge runs North and South,
and pitces at an angle of As degrees to the
East. Mr.. Lewis will extract large quaint
ties of ore from these two mines, that, am
satisfied, will yield handsomely. The ore TAX
en- from the Silver Chord and the first extern
sion South, regard as the richest gold bear
ing quartz in the Territory.
The Orc Elmo has already placed itself
among the first class mines of 0wyhee. The
yield from this mine has been on an average
of $50 per ton. think that this ought to
prove its richness, for it compares favorably
with the average from any mine in Neva-
da. lam glad to learn that mining operations
will soon be commenced upon this ledge under
the superintendency of practical miner. Let
the people work their lodges so as to be able
to satisfy our capitalists that they have
something OF value to sell, and their green
backs will find their way into the present
empty purses, to our infinite satisfaction and
their benefit. S. S.

Religious Prescription.

1t was asserted by some of the leading
radical journals of the East at the conclusion
of the civil war; that as the rebellion had
been overthrown by the military arm of the
government, the same power would be called
into requisition, if necessary, to destroy an
other formidable enemy of enlightened aboli-
tionism, namely, Catholicism. That the
programme of prescriptions about to beinau-
gurated. we have no reason TO doubt--rad-
ical papers come to us from the east, teem-
ing with distorted tales of injuries received,
and insults offered to our minister and peo-
pie in the Eternal City," loudest in its heart
rending walls of injured innocence is the IIar
per's Weekly journal whose conductors
are the most VIGOROUSLY intolerant, unprin-
cipled, lying, deiaming, bigots in America.
They have added more fuel to the flames of
hatred and discord between the different Sec
tions of the Union, than any others in the
country. Every matter, princip lie or pc
culiarity belonging to Others, which does
not happen to accord with their depraved
tastes, are Immediately caricatured in tile
most fendsh, outrageous style in the Week
"" and distributed boadcast over the world
to the admiring gaze Of narrow-souled bigots'
and the condemnation of all just persons. In
late number OF the sheet referred to, the
impressive rites OF Roman Catholic wor-
ship are derisively portrayed; the main object
of which is to poison the minds Of American
Protestants against their Catholic fellow cit
liens, to foster and excite their preudices to
such q degree, that when the "millenium"
arrives. their appetites will be sharpened,
and they will be fully prepared to do the bid
ding Of their masters in the most approved
Cromwellian manner. That they will ever
succeed in their unholy designs there is no
reason to fear, but the intention is none the
the less sincere, and if we would prevent
crusade Of religious persecution in America,
radicalism must be deprived of the power of
doing harm-by shearing it of its strength,
and consgning it to the "vile dust from
whence it sprung" 1t is strange religious
ieud was never excited in Rome, or our re-
lations with the Papal Government were not
disturbed during past democratic admins
trations, but that it was reserved to an aboli-
ton minister and an abolition Congress to
discover the enormites Of Papal intolerance,
and "Romish Superstition" Oh! how blessed
are we, possessing such faithful ministers
and guardians.
