No miner or friend of the miner committed such a devilish act. “Dam . the dame” is one of the strong granger cards, — When the San Francisco diggings they were shown.a place :svhere adam could be ‘erected which ; would hold the tailings until the . . last foot. of mining ground on the x4 Ridge ‘was washed away. Gen, ";,,Besecranz and Hamilton Smith, two _, first-class engineers, who were with ithe: ‘committee, agreed that a dam “' lat that particular point was practica“ble and could be made to last for , \cemturies. His Honor Geo. Oblyer, nt [ene spokesman for the yrangers, and i ‘. whid was aleo with the party, listened “very attentively to what -the. engi. neers said, and after consulting with a friend, who also’ traveled with the ‘committee, said: “I do.-not think “Cour people “would feel safe, if the dams were. built.. They have no faith in dams. If the dams should § fi : Happen to give away, we would be in @ worse fix than we are now.” The whole thing in a nutshell was just. this:” “The hydraulic mines must be shut down and the grangers __ will never consent to have the dams ete started. out on the tile ition that ‘nothing short. of sa i the mines wonld suit Z them. ‘When ‘such papers as the “Bee are constantly asserting that the ! grangers‘are willing that’ the mines Shall be. worked if the, debris: is taken ¢areof, we know they. are falsifying, In fact, it seems impossible for any of the anti-mining crew to open -theirmouths without at_ tempting to. utter unmitigated lies. » Siphey will continue to fight the minerg 98long as any one will take their “promise to pay,” and when that is played out they will find themselves without ranches and the hydraulic mines still in operation. 6 i cht Aik oR ae : ‘LATEST NEVYS.

Thus bitten he becomes vindictive, and his future life is devoted to one continual howl against mining, when the miner had nothing to do wit him or his losses. 2. igen and smelting prematurely, Mills are often introduced by market minerslto blind the stockhol ters and the outside public. from whom they would have still more victims. In this country, however, the more straightforward miners have in many instances sent forward mills in ridiculous haste, before they knew, or even endeavored to know, if the vein existed, or continued, for quantity or quality of m‘neral. In fact, the rule has been to erect them as assay“ng, not reduction works. 3. Far too little, of mining. Tn all minerali:ed veins, the qua’ity and quantity varies very materially in diferent sections thereof so that shafts end levels should be sunk and driven for the exposition of the vein; for it cannot be expected to expose its best in the chance surface croppings. So, too, when found mineralized in profitable quantity just where you are, it. should be further explored, to astertain its extent, betore mills or smelting works are obtained or erected for its reduction; or the costs of such unnecessarz means will be enti-ely wasted, You cannot lose by we ting, under any circumstances; and in case of success, ample reserves will greatly favor the realization from the mine, <4, "Too much trensverse shal'ow urnelling throvgh bed rock.

This single hoiating is palpably. wasteful of power and fuel; for, in lowering the car by the brake, all the retarding force is wasted; as it might, by double or balanced draught be economized for hosting the aséending car, either in the same, or in another shaft. The load of an engine being also lessened thereby, a ‘greater economy is realized from a superior degree of expansion. 7.

Inexperienced, superintendents. Few men would be willing to take passage in a ship, if they knew she incongruous clerk, or other novice, who had not previously obtained some. nautical knowledge and experience; yet many instances have occurred where the much . more difficult business of mining has been -superintended by such like men, who Were utterly unacquainted with the various duties appertaining thereto, Althoigh these men have neither innate superiority, practical ability, nor experience, they, generally speaking, possess some natural facility, or exterior: fascination, which procures them confidence atsight; and still manage to sustain themselves with superlative audacity, by placing their contemptible feet on the shoulders of the .very man from whom their best informa: tion was either—bought,—-borrowed,_ or stolen during their continued struggles to keep their positions by } of this especial hoodwinking of their employers, who actually pay them . Mrs. for doing so. J, 8. Parcurrs, The Gold Run Case. The Bee repeats that Jadge Temple will soon deliver his decision in the Gold Run case. It eays the ninety days from the time it was ostensibly . submitted to him will be up on June 7th, but the attorneys had thirty days from the adjournment of the Court to file briefs, and we learn that the ninety days would not begin to rua until the briefs were filed, Besides, Judge Temple had been months from his own county and the _ business in his Court was of course ys hind and had to be brought'up, that he could not at once enter one the consideration of the Gold Run case. There were many hundreds of pages of testimony to be studied, many decisions of other Courts to which reference was made and that had to be examined, and great care would be required in writing the
opinion—for it is the first of the kind in the State, will be widely and closely criticised, and may be~ come a text for all that are to follow. The case is likely to go to the Snpreme Court, however Judge Temple may decide, and he would naturally be ‘anxious to so fortify his opinion that it should stand the scrutiny and test of that high tribunal ; henee, all these things considered, it cannot well be.said that the Judge has frittered away-any time as yet. Oo Begins to Suniel] the Smoke. (8. F, Daily Exchange.) Mr. Hearstis beginning to hear the first scattering fire from the enemy's skirmish line—and not wholly from the enemy’s line either. We notice that some of the Democratic papers are hanging on Mr. Hearst’s flank, ready toswoop dowa on him just a8 sooh as he shows a disposition. to tightea the’ strings of his Sack. By thetime the 20th of June arrives, Mr, Hearst will doubtless have heard ‘some pretty heavy cannonading from every direction— front, rear and both flanks. .
