QUARTZ MILL FOR THE MERRIMAc.-The Min
ing Preas of San Francisco, has the following in
relation to the quartz mill recently sent up to the
Merrimac Company in this county: A 10 stamp
mill, with engine and other machinery complete,
left the .Etna Iron Works on Saturday morning
last, for the Merrimac Mining Company mine in
Butte county, about fourteen miles southeast from
Oroville. The stamps weigh $50 lbs lbs. each
work in two mortars, of the latest and most ap-
proved make. These mortars are copper-lined
throughout upon their sides, quite to the top The
engine has l2-inch cylinder with "a inch stroke,
and a balance wheeling u tons. The boiler,
which is sixteen feet long As inches in diameter,
with 46 tubes, was made by Monnan 4 Aiken. on
Mission street. 1t was made by the bestoNo. CH
Charcoal hammcred) American iron. All the cas-
tings connected with this mill were very smooth.
and everything about the work was of superior
finish. We noticed, what was to us novel and
very convenient arrangement for holding up the
stamps. an iron shaft passed across the back of the
battery upon which was affixed iron sockets cor
responding in number 10 the number of the stamps.
working with sleeve upon the shaft, and intended
to receive short levers which could be readily
made to catch iunder the tappets and thus easily
and securely hold up any all of the shafts as
might be desired. The main belt carrying the
power from the engine TO the machinery of this
mill was made by NJ. NJ. Cook 4 Son, of the best
oak tanned California leather. 1t is so feet long by
10 inches wide, and copper fastened. Every piece
of leather which went into the belt was carefully
selected for that purpose. to secure its uniform
wear and tension. II is claimed that leather belt.
when properly made and of the rigkt material, is
superior to rubber. Notwithstanding the false
feeling of distrust in California leather for hose
betting, etc, its actual superiority over eastern
make is fast becoming recognized. II will soon be
quite as generally appreciated here il is at the
East, where We understand California oaktannei
leather is worth full three cents more per pound
than eastern leather.

4 NoTED INDIAN CEIKF.-A correspondent
thus describes Of the most troublesome indians
Ga the.plains; We were seated in little room Of
the store when Santanta, head chief the Kiowas,
and Little Raven, the most eloquent Indian now
living, burst in upon u.s. and running up to General
Haruey, embracing him afiectionatsly, and shouted
rapidly and with great eordialify, "How. How,
how All in the room, the old fellew embraced
and shook hands WITH and one could scarcely real
ize that these Indians, seemingly so cordial and
glad to see US, were just fresh from the war path
and that their hands had been lately reeking with
the blood of innocent white women and children.
Yet so it was, Sanfsnta has committed more mur-
ders than any mau on the plains He Is now forty
years Of age, of plump figure with massive head;
hair black IS the wing Of raven. aneparted in the
middle, falling down his neck, over his shoulders.
His eyes are of sparkling brilliancy though no man
can ever catch them; his head measures twenty
four inches just above the eyes. WebsteEs it will
be remembered. measured the same.

RrGHr on WAY.-The Central Pacific Company
have applied to the Common Council of Marysyille
for the right of way to lay railroad track through
that city. Is possible that the iuba and 0rovlle
railroads are to be connected. We don't believe it.
Evidently there is more humbug contemplated
somewhere. 1t is easy enough to build railroad
across the continent, but-from Wheatlaad to Ma
rysville-Oh get out We hope the Pacific Com
pany may succeed in riding the Marysvilians on
rail, but our faith is very smsll-not much larger
than mustard seed. What give up their carts
and mud wagons: Cholera first by the bright

CASTOR BEANS AID GAs.-A few days ago, says
the Marysville appeal. of December Sth we stated
that the MarySvills gas works were consuming oil
cake from Dr. McDaniels castor oil MILL instead of
coal. We learn subsequently that the gas works
are making gas from the castor bean. Mr.. Hedges
of Yaba COUNTY, planted thirty acres of the red
Mexican besn, and found thatthey would not pop,
and that it would not pay to she'll them by hand.
He was, therefore, compelled to sell them in the
shell to the gas works. Raisess of castor beans
will learn by the experience Of Mr. Hedges that the
Illinois seed is the proper kind TO plant.

four years old, Judge Billings dried, the present
season. over fifty pounds OF fruit The vine is one
of our hsrdies; and best growers and is admirably
adapted 10 this climate. We look forward TO the
cultivation of this grape and the preparation of this
fruit as one of the permanent industries of this
valley.
