Coming nearer home, has any state or. court the moral. oF legal right to rob twenty thousand people, men, women and children of @ single’ county —as is being attempted in the case of this county—of their property and their life-long privileges, and then tell them they are criminals and sulject to all'the penalties of crime if they seek to earn their daily bread ia the only way known to them through long years, or that is within their power, And now the question is (and our enemies ask) what we are going todo about it? Some. of our well-intentioned friends tell the miners to go to farming,or fruit raising. This kind of ‘‘gag” is just about of a piece. with Horace Greeley’s advice to the poor of New York years ago to ‘go West” and buy a farm, when the richest of them all could not have bought a fence rail if farms had been one cent apiece. But in this case the poverty or riches of ‘the people have nothing to do with ac cepting such advice, for.in the sections where mining is carried ‘on -most-extensively, where the largest communities live and where . they have their homes, t fer auy kind of farming is very* limited.

I opine not, eo long as any hope is lef: by law or reason, or by such other j means as a free people can always command for correcting great public abuses, The question again arises, what, ean be done? , One thing is ‘certain; a thorough and complete organization of the entire mining interests of the State is an absolute necessity. Don’t any longer be blinded with the perhaps fallacious hope that the U. S. Supreme Court will possibly undo the edict of Judge Lorenzo Sawyer. If we want redress or success, let the mining. people éf-California show that they deserve it, by the activity, energy and determination with which they combat the already issued decree of a despotic Court.

They are situated at the head of SierraVal--. ley, Sierra county, near the headwatera of the middle ferk. of Feather river, and about oue mile east of the towns of Sierraville and Randolph. They are reached in four or five hours staging from the town of Truc-” keeon the C. P, R. R. ‘Sierra is a beautiful as well as a fertile valley, being dotted at the time I was there with golden wheat and barley tieldsand green meadows, which contrasted with the high range of mountain almost surrounding it, forming a picture. approximating sublimity. The climate inspring, summer and fall is beautiful, the thermometer rangiug from 60 to 90. There was a geiitleman by the name of Knight, a resident of Marysville, came to the springs unable to walk. His limbs were terribly swollen, ' be. ing contorted and drawn out of ali natural shapes. He’*suffered with excraciating pain and was pronounced by. some afflicted with dropsy, while others said he had rheumatism. He bathed and drank of the water freely. for about two months at which time he left, entirely cured, his limbs being as nimble as a boy’s. : Another, a. merchant from Downieville named Meroux, came there 80 badly crippled with rheumatism (inflammatory) that for three or four days he was unable to get out of his bed without assistance and had to be carried ona litter to his baths. He leftthe Springs well in about the same length of time as Me. Knight, except that the joints of his tingers were somewhat enlarged and the finyers themselves twisted a little out of the natural shape, but entirely clear of pain, Another case was that of a man named Jonas Thompson, from Boca, this county, who came there with a slight attack of rhematism, from which he was entirely relieved iv about two weeks. . He told me that he came to the Springs about three years ‘before that time so badly. crippled up with the same disease that he was unable to walk or even lie in bed, but had to be ing chair before a fiteplace (it was then verging into winter) fortwo weeks, with an attendant day. and night, His linbs when he came there were so swollen that the most of his clothing had to be cut off him, He was catried to the baths twice a day and drank freely of the water, as was done in the uther cases, and in a little over two mouths he left the Springs a well man. I not only have hie word for the above facts, but his statement is corroborated by all of the old: settlers: uf Sierravilie wiere he then resided, and by -some of the propri@tors or attaches that were then and are still at the Spriugs. Stiil another case of rheumatism, that of a man from Eareka Mills, Plumas county, an Italian miner named Passitta, was brought there unable to walk or use any of his limbs. He coald not even feed bimselfand had to. be carried to his
baths on a litter for eight or ten days. By that time he had so far recovered as to be avle to administer his food to himeelf and walk to and from his baths unaided, a distance of 80 yards, and at the end of three weeks (that being the time I left there) he was almost well. The same deyree f success was achieved io many other cases less afflicted. As to my own case, it was the . most stubborn one of rheumatism I saw at the Springs,’ I had been afflicted with it nearly six months, as many in Nevada City know, before I went there. I came home greatly improved, and had it’ not been for a fall L received which caused my arm to swell apagain by being so bruised, I think I should now. be entirely well. Many more people would be benefited and cured that visit theSprings.if they would follow instructions given them. They have got to bathe and drink as directed. You get good board, lodging and baths for $10 per week. . The proprietors, . this county) are most excellent gentlemen but. unaccustomed to any” ia which they ars now also engaged. don’t seem to-realize the value of their own, prope;ty, not even having had‘an analysis made of the -wa‘ters of their Springs, nor have hart given them publicity by advertising in the newspapers except at home. . Hence they are comparatively un‘known outside of two or three counties adjoining that in which ‘the Springs are located..

A letter was received here yesterday from J. Y. Anderson, who was ‘about twenty years.ago a shining light in the Methodist Church of this city, but is now interested in mining operations at San Bernardino. He says that an evening or two before writing he was attending a@ rousing prayer meeting in hs town, when Brother Perkey, also formerly a Nevada Cityan and wio mined on Wood's Ravine, sprang up ia the audience as natural as life and took a hand in the proceedings, Perkey bad happened in there while on his way to the Calico mines, Bent but Not Broken.
