TREASURE HUNTING.

An old man and his wife have discovered
that bonanza of romance, the famous Peg
leg mine, which Is reputed to have been
worked long ago, when gold was plentiful,
by Pegleg Smith. II has been heard of
only in tradition since that worthy de-
parted. If it be not the Pegleg it is per-
haps a peg better. The search for that
fabulOusly rich ledge, should this not be
atteSted as the verltable and ncontroyert-
ible one, will continue. For these roam
ing, sanguine fortune-hunters Pegieg
mines are wise provision of nature,
buOying them up with all uuf1agging in
terest in life and giving them an occupa-
tion in perpetuity. The story which comes
from San Diego County is. therefore, on
the face of it dubious. A mine represen ted
to be very rich in ore has been located, but
the mere fact that it is in the same locality
where the mythical Pegleg was does not
establish its title to that impsrshable
designation.
The faulty with which people search
for treasure is remarkable in an age of as
sumed enlightenment. Sometimes there is
a reward in those old countries. like Greece
and Italy, where civilization flourished SO
many centuries ago, and where statues,
coins and ornaments are profusely buried
in the soil of RACED cities. But what gain
has come 10 the hundreds of adventures
who have fitted out expeditions to search
Cocos Island Tor buried treasure? This
island has actually been tunneIed and
spaded over until there is hardly any new
ground left for the credulous. and not a
doubloon or gold candlestick has been
sighted. Still the Island remains, and as
long as it is called Cocos it will be the Peg
leg of the ocean.
Angel Island. in San Francisco Bay, was
also a booty battle-ground of the pirates.
Its canyons have been well irrigated with

Over hundred thousand tons of freight
Will have come round the Horn in clipper
ships in the year which closes next m onth.
On this local merch ants will have made a
saving in freight of at least SIS per ton.
This is at least worth earning. The fact
of so much freight being shipped by the
Horn has also a healt nv reaction upon
rates overland. and therefore the gain to
the coast is general. At this moment the
freight coming to California by clippers is
estimated at $1,000 tons from New York,
5000 tons from Philadelphia and 1000 from
Baltimore. This is a healthy sign that
California is not wholly dependent on the
Southern Pacific, but can find other means
Of transportation when disposed to act.
The assertion by the Southern Pacific that
the Cane Horn fleet will founder is trile
premature. but it is only promulgated for
consumption in Europe, where there are

The San Fran cisco MORNING CALL is
sued on Sunday one of those enormous
