THE WEATHER.-The first frost of the season
of sufficient severity to harden the ground, visit
ed this section Thursday night. 1t rained
almost continuously for two months, the wealth
er during the time being warm and pleasant
more favorable mining season, thus far, never
was enjoyed in the Weavervile Basin. The sur
rounding hills are at present covered with few
inches of snow, but on the high mountains the
depth cannot be estimated. The hard frost of
last night will shorten the supply of water for
the present, but the mild weather and sun-shiny
days of February will soon bring abundance
again. The heavy rain of last week did mischief
to some claims and bitches, but nothing of
rous nature, that we can learn. Considering
the great amount of rain which has fallen, min
ers and ditch owners have been unusually for
tunate this winter.

General Bidwell will accept the nomination for
Governor with pride, but he will not compromise
his self-respect and independence to secure a
nomination. He will make no bargains and
sales, but will accept the nomination as the ex-
pressed will of the people, and not the sharp
practice of political chicanery and wire-puling.
The General is right, and we hope for once to
see the people take the matter of nominations
into their own hands, and not suffer Governor

THE HEROIC DEAD.-The Medical Department
of the Army has completed mortuary records,
with 10000 folio volumes of hospital registers,
$4,000 burial records, $4,000 hospital, muster
and pay rolls, alphabetical registers of the dead,
containing $50, 900 names of white and &c, 900 of
colored soldiers. Forty-one National Military
Cemeteries have been established, and into these
have been gathered l94 ,62s Union soldiers. The
sites for te1 additional cemeteries hav, been To-
Gated, and the work on them is being vigorously
pushed. 1t is estimated by Secretary Stanton
that these cemeteries will be required to receive
and protect the remains of 240, ,497 patriotic SOL
diers whose lives were lost in defence of the Ma
tional existence. If we add to these the thous-
ands who returned home to die, and who found
a resting-place in private cemeteries, our people
readily form some idea of the sacrifices made
by our brave boys to preserve the Union.

circulation.
And am happy to say that The work
is one which l can heartily commend.
1t is a sober, right,minded book, cover
ing the range Of certain deeply interest
ing, religious themes, maintaining the
truth, free from Private Interpretations
and seml-heresles, written freely and
freshly, in a style level to common
thought, and fitting it for popular de-
VGuonal reading, The more widely il

to lie by the side Of the Bible as a fam,

which you have put it, will secure it 8
large circulation wherever its worth is
known. Very truly yours,

The Bible is mainly of value to US
as it reveals to US a redeemer. That
preaching is the best that best exhibits
and recommends Christ Jesus, Prayer
is efficacious in its highest degree when
it is a means OF reaching christ The
cup that is used at the Congress Spring
is only valuable in bringing the water
to the thirsty lips, no matter whether
it be rustic gourd or q silver tankard !;
but the cup alone and empty is hollow
mockery. So is preaching or prayer an
empty cup, unless it brings Jesus to the
needy soul. 1t is not the cup that saves
but the water that it contains. The
superstitious ritualist worships the cup (;
the fanatic who despises all gospel ordi-
nsnces filings it away but the man who
would be saved must use the channel of
mercy-whether it be the Bible, the SER
mon, or the prayer-for the infowing
Of Christ Jesus into his soul.
