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 2 4 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 ing. some pamphlets regaruing the climate suil and gevkay of Calitornia, and w rhe 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. boat with the materials which we had pure chased in Busten. It was a flat-bottomed buat, nod a clumay affair; but it was propelled by the aid of steath, and with paddle Wheels, atid that apecrmen of our work we named ‘Eaward Everett, Jr.’ ‘Uhbis steainer was the firatone that ever navigated the Sacramento river; nd we think it should be known in history, that through the kind» aves of Euword Everett, the orator and stetesman, the huudred and Gifty edvextur. ore were proud to place his name on the sides of their cude craft—a wonder in those days, when only suiliug veescls asceuded the river.” iar is eaantin ccna sane TAY are raising subscription for Cobden’s family in England.

Watsky anp Newsparers.—A glass of ~whisky, says<an exchange, is manufactured fron perhaps a dozen graine of washed eorn the value is too small to be estimated. A pint of this oxture sells at retail for one shilling, and, if a good brand, is considered by ‘ts consumers weil worth the money. It is drunk off in a minute or two; it fires the brain, rouses the passion, sharpens the apcal system. It is gone, and swollen eyes. parched lips, and aching hende are its tollowers. Ou the same sideboard upou which thie is served lies a newspaper, the new _wh'te paper of which eusts about two cents. . Thit'is covered-With a bundred thousand types; it brings intelligence from ‘the four. quarters of the glube ; in :ts clearly printed columns jl that is strange or new at home; it tells you the state of the morkets; gives paccount of the war; the execution of the last murderer, the last steauibcat explosion or disaster, articles on philosophy, government and religion, tnd yet, fur all this, the hewspaper costs leas than the glass of grug the juice of a few grains. of corn. It is no less strange than true that there isa large portion of the community who, think the corn juice chesp and the ‘Rewspas pers dear and the printer has hard “work to colject his dimes, when the hquor-dealers are paid cheerfully. How is this? Is the belly a better paymaster than the head ?— Are things of the inoment more prized than In the transient ticking of the stomach. of more consequence than the improvement of the mind, and the information that is essential to a rational being? _If this had ita real value, would not & newspaper be worth many pints of whisky? ee ARRIVALS AT THE NATIONAL EXCHANGE HOTEL.
