of stamps are run by four mills-three by
steam and one by water power. The mines
are worked from depths varying from two to
three hundred feet, and are all paying we'll /;
so think that Angels Camp bids fair to be-
come one of the most fourishing in Ca;ave-

be worked soon. There l met my old friend
George Tryon. He is now prepared to ac-
commodate the public in the best of style.-
His hotel has been thoroughly renovated
since the small pox disappeared from that
vicinity. SO that the public need have no
fears in visiting Angels and stopping at Try
on's.
My next stopping place was Valleclto-
quite village, five miles from Angels, on
the Sonora road. There met a number of
my old friends who seemed glad to see me.
There Is but little mining of any kind going
on there. Only one claim of Importance |;
that is the Company which run tunnel
from Coyote Creek into the Flat. They are
at present making great preparations for
working their claim by hydraulic washing,
when they expect large returns. I then
moved on for Murphys, passing through
Douglass Flat. There are several very good
claims, all deep diggings. at Douglass Flat.
The hoisting and pumping is done by over
shot water wheels.
I arrived at Murphys in due time, and
was surprised to find SO beautiful and pleas
ant town. Not having visited it since 80,
could hardly persuade myself that it really
was Murphys. I am now at Sperry's Hotel

house has too wide reputation to need any
commendation from me but l will say that
it is not surpassed by any hotel in the noun

EDITOR CHRosIcLB:-I left the Palomo
mine on the morning of the 9TH inst, and
travelled. by Foot & Walkers line, to Chilli
Junction. The only object worthy of note that
saw, was what used to be called the " Cof-
fee mill )" but is coffee mill no longer it
has grown into a full sized grist mill. 1 did
not see Mr.. Rowland. the Superintendent,
or anyone else who seemed to know anything
about the claim; so 1 merely looked around
at the machinery. Everything is well ar
ranged and works to charm. They have a
five-stamp battery for crushing the gravel
as it comes from the mine, which is equal to
Ahe task. / learned from one of the owners
that the results were perfectly satisfactory.
At the Junction met Dutch john" the
gentlemanly and accommodating Sonora
stage driver, who kindly conveyed me TO
San Andreas. At that "very fine place" 1
met many kind friends. particularly Messrs.
Oliphant & Cotton, of the Metropolitan Ho-
tel. Of those gents and their hotel cannot
speak too highly. Everything is kept in the
best of order and one feels perfectly at home
they seem to anticipate your wants. 1 am
satisfied that anyone stopping at their house
will never have cause to complain.
Leaving San Andreas on the morning the
1th, made my way, on foot. to Fourth
Crossing, where the same old Dutch John
picked me up and dropped me at Altaville.
John is some on the drive and good judge
of horse flesh.
Altavllie is very pleasant little village,
about one mile north Of Angels Comp; has
foundry, hotel. grocery store and billiard

My faithful attendant sprite, has taken his
departure to the realm of spirits, from
whence had called him to wait upon and
aid me in the election contest. now happily
ended. l was 10th to part with him, but the
time of his usefulness had passed. and while
was issuing the irrevocable fiat, / saw that
my words dropped like stone into the
well-spring of his heart and splashed the
water to his eyes. With sad and mourn
full expression of eountenance, he bade me
| adieu, and silently vanished.
These, the saddest days of all the year are
upon us, but sadder still, by far. are the
faces of the Democracy hereabouts. With
lighter purses and heavier hearts than they
have known since siXty-four, they wander
around, scarcely able to realize the crushing
defeat that has overtaken them. Believing
their noses were about to be plunged into the
public crib from which they have been ex-
cluded for eight long years. thing never
known in the history of Democracy before,
they fondly hoped. yes, they were sure, their
time had come. But now, to know that for
four years, at least, there is no shadow of
hope. their punishment is almost greater
than they can bear, and they drag them
selves from place to place, pictures of woe
and dependency, utterly refusing to be
comforted. The lesson they have been
taught by the result of this election will,
without doubt, have very salutary effect,
indicating as it does. not only to the Democ-
racy of America. but to the wide world, that
those who fought for the integrity of the
Union, can and will maintain it.
