Tue New Distuict.—From the Virginia
Union we learn that considerable excitement exists in that place in reference to the
new.mining District recently discovered in
the northern part of this county. Specimens
have been seen from the Eclipse ledge, the
main lead of the District, which fairly surpass anything iately seen in the shape of
croppings. This ledge has been traced five
miles and is located the entire distance.—
The clainms located are as fellows: Potosi,
2,100; Eclipse, 1,600; Summit Ruby, 1,400;
Virginio, 1,300; Sherman, 1,600. The bal
aace has been‘lecated withina week. The
locators are from Virginia City and this
county. Sixty persons arrived there in one
day. All have the greatest confidence and
many are working upon ledges. The croppings in many pleces assay over $9,000 to
the ton and the lowest assay is $65. The
ledges are generally composed of three
stratas of ores— gold, silver and copper, the
silver ore being in the center. The ledges
are from six to twelve feet wide on top and
increase in size from the surface. They
‘ fun ina north-east and south-westly direction. Many pronounce this the richest District yet discovered. Another rich vein has
been discovered three miles and-a half. from
the Eclipse, and a large number of claims
have been located upon it.The new discovery is called the Excelsior District. The
Union says it “ia creating mure excitement
than anything has for some time, and if the
ores are only half as good as represented
they are good enough. Many people are
thronging thither ia quest of ‘rich feet,’ and
Kearsarge is already at a discount.” The
District is situated on the Henness Pass
road, sixteen miles south of Webbers and
about fifty-four miles from Virginia. A tell
road is being located from Webber's. The
district is about fifty miles from this city and
@ good road is already constructed within
four miles from Bowman's. The Excelsior
District is well wooded and watered, a heavy growth of magnificont pine timber covering the entire District, and a creek close
by affords plenty of water power. The Unton says, “ten mill sites are already taken
ap. Robbinson & McCarty -are clearing
off a site fora twenty stamp mill and Capt.
Kidd is preparing for the erection of another.” All the reports we are able to obtain
from the new District fully confirm what
has been enid of it. Ledges in the viciaity”
of Bowman's have been pruspected for some
time. They are all of enormous size and
. many of them are exceedingly rich, but us
yet they have been imperfectly worked on
eccount of the great distance from mills. —
We have always been of the opimen that
the quartz ledges found between Washingtem and the State line are equal to any on
the Coast, and this will undoubtedly be
demonstrated in the Excelsior District.—
Within the past week more than a hundred
claime located in the new District have
been recorded at this place.
PREMFDITATED.—Some of our cotemporaries seem todoubt that Governor Low
bad anything to do with the “bolt” 1° this
eounty. We have heard it said that Goyernor Low wae fully advised in regard to
the matter before anything was douse, and
circumstances go far to confirm that apinion. Themen who are now circulating the
eall for the “sore-head" convention are all
personal friends of Low. They were his
managers in the primary fight and be is undeubtedly kept posted by them. The preeout movement is in his interest and we be hiewe he is, individually, responsible for it.
Shae

Reasoxs ror Boutixe.—The “soreheads” have been herd at work for some
time, But we believe have received very little ‘ail anli comfort” from leading Union
men. ‘On Saturday for the first time reasons were assigned for theaction of the bolt
ers in calling a “People’s Convention "—
The first is “the action of the County Cen.
. tral Committee in cutting off delegutes from
someof the precincts,” by which it is charged a preponderance was given to one faction in the Convention.’ Now the facts are,
thet nearly all the shorn precincts were for .
the dominant party fand not for the other.
The Ceniral Committee, ifit. could be proved they intended to do a wrong in this matter were therefore weakening their own’
party instead ofthe other. Besides, the pre‘einets presented at the Convention their
usual number of delegates, and all were
admitted, so that, whatever cause of complaint might have existed on the score
of partly diafranchised precincts was entirely removed. The Convention was then just
As the organ of the *-short hairs” said it
ought to be, with not a delegate which they
Claimed was entitled toaseat excluded, and,
therefore, ‘all was fair up to the time the
Convention commenced its nominations.
The second reasen assigned by the “‘soreheads” is the “action of the Convention,”
but what that action was, except to repudiate a few office-seekers whu must rule or
they won't stay in the party, we are not
advised. We heard one of the most active
agents fur the bolters say, “If ——— had
been nominated there would have been no
bolt,” so that it is narrowed down to this
point, that because one man was not chosen
by the Convention an effort is being made
to destroy and break the Union party of this
county. ‘A decent rexpect for the opionions of mankind” always requites that when
a party feels aggrived their grievances
should be set forth for the judgment of a
candid world. The reasons for the action
of the bolters of this county is “that the
Union County Convention did’nt nomina
them for office.” Let Union men jadge ei
justly rebuke such action.
THe FinsT STEAMBOAT ON THE Sac:
RAMENTO.—As a “Recollection” of the late
Edward Everett, a Bosten weekly paper
publishes the following—ihe writer being
one of the purty:
“In the month of December, 1848, a party of adventurers, numbering one hundred
and fifty, from all the New England Stats,
became infected with the gold fever, which
then raged extensively all over the country,
in Cansequence of discovering the precivus
metal i California. These men formed a
company and purchased a splendid ship
called the ‘Edward Everett,’ avd named the
company ‘The Edward Everett Gold _Min=
ing Company.’The shares were three hundred dollars each, and no person conld bold
mere than one share, becausthe company
wanted streagth aud not ornamental meu
bers. Alter the shares were allotted, and
the ship purchased, it was suggested that
Mr. Everett should be notified of the coms
pliment the company had paid him, and that
we should be h-ppy if he would give us any
information respecting the country which
we were about to visit, aud the art of mas
ing The bint was acted upou, and wa few
days We received a letter from Mr. Everett, in which be statedthat, with the facta q
ond documents we desired, he had forward. 7
ed tous choice lot of books, the perusul
of which he hoped we would find interesting
during our long passage to the new El Dos
rado. There were about one bundred and
filty volumes, emodracing , Prescutt’s Bana
croft’s Spurk's and other s:audard works;
besides seweral text books relative to mins

that gave very distinct acownta of the early
settlement of the Jesuite, aud the manner
in Which they had extended. their influence
by the aid of misswaaries aod Coristianity
among the Indians.
Of course we were pleased with our presaent, and so we informed Mr. Everett. His
books were read most attentively; and, ntter a sizsmonths’ passage, we arrived in
California, moored our ship along the mud
bunks of Benicia, and there built a steam.
