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. After years of'suffering by’ «

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. Nevada county an:

quently. interrogated as. to, what I
thought ofthe medicinal qualities. of
‘Campbell Hot Sulphar Springs after
my three mouths sojourn there . last
fall, I have concluded to tell through
ithe medium of your valuable paper what I saw and know: of
them, thinking that it may be of
some benefit to suffering humanity and especially to those afflicted.
with that common and movt dreaded
of all diseases, rheumatism, I am no
doctor, but I can tell of what I saw
there, “For dropsy; rheumatiem,neu‘ralgia and all nervous diseases I believe the Springs are unsurpassed by
any other on the Coast. 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.. I see.no reason
why with proper management and
a small outlay: for sgeneeine: .

The San Francisco Post. says: A

Marysville’s fight against the, miners
has turned out-a case of biting off
your nose to Spite your face, He
says that town is duller than ever
before in.its‘history, and plainly on
the wane. ‘The débris decision has
seriously.. affected . Maryavillle’s

profitable market enjoyed by ita merchants and farmers of the surrounding country, Freight forthe northero mines, which formerly went by

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,
