this life, nor the sinner neither
But that the one must look and wait
for material heaven, and the other
a birthstone hell, for their respective

GREEN VALLEY, Sept. 8, 1872
 Writing from camp in the mount aims with my saddle for desk. I have but little further to communi- cate regarding the Porter & Birch mine upon which work has been temporarily suspended awaiting the arrival of supplies and tools from Phoenix. The Way Up mine owned by Lafayette Nash of Phoenix is the coming big bonanza. Opening at four inches it now shows width of eight inches and if anything better ore than at first. Mir. Nash has opened the ledge in four places all of which show ore chuek full of free gold. He is now opening cut pre- paratory to running a drift to tap the ledge at about forty feet from the sur face. New discoveries are being made daily, new people are coming in and the district shows up big with every indication of hilarious prosper. ity in the near future. Two and a half miles west of here are the House 6 Rouse silver mines from which they have extracted about 150 tons of very rich ore and the work of extrac- ton is going on at the rate of about 8 tons daily. Work that had been temporarily suspended on this group of mines has been resumed in aRtici- patton of having the ore worked at the Mazatzal Co.'S mill upon the ad- vent of the rainy season. Messrs. House & Rouse have a very excel lent property in their various loca- tions aggregating about twenty in all, and all carrying about the same character of ore. They have lately commenced an incline upon the North Sucker which is down about thirty feet and from both sides of %hich they are stoping out ore at four man power. Havs no late news from the Delshay mines. The Mag atzal Co. have suspended work on their group of mines until the rainy season commences. Rumor says that Chas. M Clark will soon place r stock of merchandise in this District which district is bound to be the
 coming exciter. K

What Claus Spreekels Says.

Claus Spreckels, who is largely interested in
matters at the Sandwich Islands, was interviewed
by a Call reporter last evening, in regard to the
effect which the proposed immigration to the Is
lands would have upon the welfare of the Ha-
waiian Government. The entire population of
the Islands at the present time, Mr.. Spreckels
states, is about SIS 900. They are in want of
labor, but 600 Chinese would more than sup
ply the demand. Beyond that number, Mr..
Spreckels says, would be a detriment. The Gov
eminent was opposed to extended Chinese immi-
grafton, and the Ministers of China would never,
he thought, be able to so influence the King and
his Cabinet as to permit unlimited Chinese emf
grafton. OF course, it would he q grand thing
for China to gain possession of the Sandwich Is
lands, and they would be willing to spend any
amount of money to accomplish that object, but
he did not believe they would be able to accom-
plish it. They certainly would not if his inter
ests were consulted, or his personal influence had
any weight. Three schooners loaded with natives
had recently arrived in Honolulu from the South
Sea Islands, and a cargo of laborers was expected
from MADEIRA. These people were all doeile, and
generally preferable to the Chinese. Mr.. Spreck-
els has about 100 Chinese and 125 whites en-
ployed upon his plantation on the island of Maui.
The former be pays so toSl2 per month the
latter he gives from 50 to 81 per day. The is
land was capable of maintaining one million of
people and the land is wonderfully productive.
Each productive acre of land will produce from
$500 to 5000 per acre per annum. Each acre
will produce from four to seven tons of sugar per
annum. By a system of irrigation lately intro
duced, labor was very much reduced. In con-
clusion, Mr.. Spreckels said he had no fear of the
Chinese Government being able to bride the
Ministry and Legislature into allowing unre-
stricted Chinese immigration.-Morning Call,
