If the Optic mans mining inteli-

fabulously rich Sierra mines, scope of
mining country about 1t of large extent
which promises to be when developed,
an immensely wealthy country. This

A correspondent of the New York
Sun writes as follows:
Iag0 and Guiteau are alike sem
sitive In reference to the use of the
word murder, and prefer q softer
and more ambiguous term to de-
scribe the act. While, however,
there is much that is devilish in
the character of both, the former,
when pressed by Roderigo, had at
least the manliness and courage to
call his crime by its proper name.
In "OthellO," fourth act, second
scene, OCCURS the following sug.
gestive colloquy:
Iago-Sir, there is q special
commission from Venice, to depute
Cassie in Othello's place.
Roderigo-Is that true? Why,
then Othello aud DesdemOna re-
turn again to Venice.
Iago-Oh, no; he goes into Mau.
ritauia, ami taxes away with him
the fair Desdemona, unless his
abode BIZ fingered here by some &C.
cidsnt; wherein none can be &c
discriminate as the removing oil
Casio.
Roderigo-How do you mean
removing of him?
Iago-Why, by making him in'
capable of Othello's place-kn0ck'
ing out his brains.
Thus We see that Guiteau. exec
rable villain as he lie, has not even
the virtue of originality in his
'lnspiration."
