FaoM WHITE PINE. Our friend. ". G. Poindexter. of Yuma county, has forwarded ns letter from L. C. Barton, formerly of Prescott. The letter is dated at White Pine, Nevada, and Mr. E. says the mines are very rich. Last summer, hr. Barton prospected the heads of Snake, Wind, Green and Yellow. stone rivers, without finding digging, that would pay board. He describes that coun- try as one immense bed of sandstone.

UNION PACIFIC RAILWAY, E. D,

Now that the grand political battle las
 been decided, the people of tue EHst-Dcm- ocra,s and Republicans arc turning their at- tentiou to other mattcrs--matiers upon which all Americans can agree. and the accomplish ment of which will add greatly to the wealth, power and glory of our common country. The Union Pacific Railroad is almost com ple,cd, but the people know that, when com plcted it will be incapable of meeting the wants of the mul,itudes of the East, the West, the North and the South, consequently | they are agitatng the matter of building two ] or three more tran-AtIantic railroads, and we are pleased Co learn that the Union Pa ! cifc or 3jth Parallel Railway, the route which passes a little to the northward of Prescott, stands a favorable show for receiving Con ! gressional aid at an early day. Indeed it is a wonder that aid has not been given the com pany long ago Starting out of the very heart of our Eastern Dominion, it has been built across the new and prosperous State o' Kansas, almost to the New Mexican line
 where its enterprsing builders were com pellcd to halt for lack of means. Its object
 i've point is San Francisco, the Qdceen of out Western Empire, in going to which it will
 pass through the Territories of New Mexico and Arizona, the richest and best undevel
 oped regions on the map of America. W'
 have an abiding faith that in less than iy, years. this road will be completed and thei
 what untold wealth will be opened up to th
 nation what immense tracts of farming, tim
 ber and grazing lands will it cut through an, open up Co settlement When we revert C what it will accomplish for us we can almos forgive the Government for its past neglect

THE CHINESE AHEAD AGAIN. Planchette,
itseems, isno exception TO the rule, that there
is nothing new under the suR. The Chinese
nsed it ages ago as toy. Hewitt says
"They obtained writing by making clumsy
sort Of Planchette of a basket, turned down,
and reed or style thrust through it, 80 as to
write when the Planchette moved, in sand,
dust or -four sprinkled on atable. They then
invoke the spirit, and generally not in vain,
the basket often moving rapidly, as it rests
on the tips Of the fingers Of two boys, and
writing perfectly ineligible communications.
DR.. Macgowan says it was in great practice
the revival or an old custom. A ciub-of liter
airy graduates were in the Pan-teh- kwan, a
Taouist temple, near the Temple Of Confucius,
for practising the K, as the ceremony was
called, and many and marvellous were the
revelations said to be obtained"
