Parties-a:e-engayed in-gstting up @ company to construct a wide gauge railroad from Marysville, or a point near that place, via Brown’s Valley and Challenge Mills, to some point above, where it will cemmand the trade of Sierra and Plumas ‘counties and the upper part of Yuba county. The distance from Challenge Mills to Camptonville via Bullard’s Bar, is 18 miles, with a good graded road between the two places. From Nevada City to Camptonville is 23 miles, The.construction of such a road will necessitate the construction of a railroad from Grass Valley to thia place, and thus bring the ‘Camptonville people within ten miles of the terminus, It is necessary for the uatrow gauge company to retain the Sierra county freighting to make their road profitable. With a feeder at this place they can defy competition, A Disgraceful Custom. The Rev. Father Mulholland, of New Haven, Conn., refuses to perform the marriage ceremony hereafter after sunset.

Some — people think it is funny. .I don’t.” There are a great many lads in Nevada City who think it quite the thing to have a little ‘‘fun”. of this kind whenever opportunity offers, Of late it has become necessary to hire policemen to keep the intruders away from the stopping place of newly married couples.

An Apparatus for Gathering Gold : from Occan sands. The San Francisco Exchange says: This machine is a combination of te plow and the amalgamating ¢ ble. 1t is designed for the extraction of Rold from beach sande, of which’ therg isa stretch of over 300 miles, rich in mineral, on this coast, With the exception of a nondescript dredging apparatus, built some years ayo, that cost much ‘money and failed miserably of its intended purpose, machinery for this class of mining has been rade and primitive in de. ‘sign and effective only to a limited been confined to the shore-line, varyimg in extent according:to the move‘ments of the tide. Mining in deep water, where much of the richer deposit lies, was impracticable, owing to the want of. suitable appliances for. the purpose, Now, however, with the L:ininger parent, the sands may be operated upon at a depth of TOO feet or more, and worked over and over again until the last “color” is extracted, zontal tables, 12 feet in length. by 4 feet in width. These are placed one above the other, one foot apart, the upper table being placed about 18 iron frame work eight Deniston’s electric amalgamating plates, each 4 by 24 feet, charged witli quicksilver on either side, ‘There is:a space of six inches between the plates on each table to allow the sand and water to pass throu,h them, and flow over the upper surface of the p ates. Projecting downward in front of each of the lower plates are six pointed teeth, similar to cultivator teeth, but broader, The purpose of these teeth is toplow up the bottions, the two parts of the lower table being connected by a strony mits the machine to follow the un-. the more readi-y to pass over any obstructions, Securely attached to the forward part of the machinc 1s a strong wire rope, to which, when in Operation, is fastened “a powerful wire cable, lea ling to the capstan of the tuyabuve, which furnishes the motive power, Underneath the lower table, bacx uf each row of teeth, are placed four semi-circular , platés of wrought iron. These serve the double purpose of permitting the machine to slide along the ocean botstroke of the plow-téeth. The framework is strongly built, of the best, wrought iron, and weighs about 1,100 pounds, In operation, the plow is lowered to the ocean-bed, and is dragged by asteam-tug of a 40-horse power— ordinarily at the rate of four miles anhour, The action of the teeth upon the ocean bottom throws upward the. auriferous san . , which, in passsing backward oyer and under the amalgamating plates, is divested of the precious metal. These plates having 128 feet of surface, will amalgamate and hold large quantities of gold, (at least 400 ounces,) and, by repeated draggings, will take up the gold to the last color, The capacity of the plow is 40,000 tons of sand per day. -W.

Parties-a:e-engayed in-gstting up @ company to construct a wide gauge railroad from Marysville, or a point near that place, via Brown’s Valley and Challenge Mills, to some point above, where it will cemmand the trade of Sierra and Plumas ‘counties and the upper part of Yuba county. The distance from Challenge Mills to Camptonville via Bullard’s Bar, is 18 miles, with a good graded road between the two places. From Nevada City to Camptonville is 23 miles, The.construction of such a road will necessitate the construction of a railroad from Grass Valley to thia place, and thus bring the ‘Camptonville people within ten miles of the terminus, It is necessary for the uatrow gauge company to retain the Sierra county freighting to make their road profitable. With a feeder at this place they can defy competition, A Disgraceful Custom. The Rev. Father Mulholland, of New Haven, Conn., refuses to perform the marriage ceremony hereafter after sunset.

The San Francisco Exchange says: This machine is a combination of te plow and the amalgamating ¢ ble. 1t is designed for the extraction of Rold from beach sande, of which’ therg isa stretch of over 300 miles, rich in mineral, on this coast, With the exception of a nondescript dredging apparatus, built some years ayo, that cost much ‘money and failed miserably of its intended purpose, machinery for this class of mining has been rade and primitive in de. ‘sign and effective only to a limited been confined to the shore-line, varyimg in extent according:to the move‘ments of the tide. Mining in deep water, where much of the richer deposit lies, was impracticable, owing to the want of. suitable appliances for. the purpose, Now, however, with the L:ininger parent, the sands may be operated upon at a depth of TOO feet or more, and worked over and over again until the last “color” is extracted, zontal tables, 12 feet in length. by 4 feet in width. These are placed one above the other, one foot apart, the upper table being placed about 18 iron frame work eight Deniston’s electric amalgamating plates, each 4 by 24 feet, charged witli quicksilver on either side, ‘There is:a space of six inches between the plates on each table to allow the

sand and water to pass throu,h them, and flow over the upper surface of the p ates. Projecting downward in front of each of the lower plates are six pointed teeth, similar to cultivator teeth, but broader, The purpose of these teeth is toplow up the bottions, the two parts of the lower table being connected by a strony mits the machine to follow the un-. the more readi-y to pass over any obstructions, Securely attached to the forward part of the machinc 1s a strong wire rope, to which, when in Operation, is fastened “a powerful wire cable, lea ling to the capstan of the tuyabuve, which furnishes the motive power, Underneath the lower table, bacx uf each row of teeth, are placed four semi-circular , platés of wrought iron. These serve the double purpose of permitting the machine to slide along the ocean botstroke of the plow-téeth. The framework is strongly built, of the best, wrought iron, and weighs about 1,100 pounds, In operation, the plow is lowered to the ocean-bed, and is dragged by asteam-tug of a 40-horse power— ordinarily at the rate of four miles anhour, The action of the teeth upon the ocean bottom throws upward the. auriferous san . , which, in passsing backward oyer and under the amalgamating plates, is divested of the precious metal. These plates having 128 feet of surface, will amalgamate and hold large quantities of gold, (at least 400 ounces,) and, by repeated draggings, will take up the gold to the last color, The capacity of the plow is 40,000 tons of sand per day. -W.
