Copper and Silver,
Mining matters are looking up
around Spenceville, in this county,
Several years ago copper was discovered, and it was thought in great
abundance. The Recorder was kept
busy iu recording claims; many
¢ompanies were formed, and everybody who did not own an interest in
the copper mines, was considered
The excitement. ran
high, compauies were formed anda
great deal of work was done, and
quite a town Was started up, .when
all at once, it was found out that the
mines could not be worked with
profit, and the copper mines went
Out of sight about as quick as they
camein. Nothing was thonght of
that region until about a year ago,
when Mr. D. F. Deetken, a good
metallurgist, went there and ‘erected a furnace to work the ore, in a
way that he had confidence in, and
has been successful. A quantity of
the ore was seut ‘to Europe’ for assay, and the returns. have been received which proves that it ‘is very
rich in copper, and assays as high as.
$235 in silver te the ton, We presume the excitement will be started
up there again, and the m:nes will
be worked in a systematic manner.
Many of our people have never lost
confidence in the Spenceville copper .

Charley Moore, of the Union Hotel, and Capt. Moore, have for some
~ months been engaged in prospecting
an old quartz ledge, formerly owned
by W. C: Randolph and Capt. Day,
Joeated upon Deer Creek? They
procured the hoisting works of the
old Manhattan, and under the superintendence of Capt. Moore, the work
has been pushed through in the most
systematic manner. A short time
since they struck a fine ledge, hetween two and three féet thick, which
looked splendidly. In many places
free gold could be seen, and the rock
contains a great deal of sulphurets.

confident that it will pay well. as
they go in on the ledge the better the

work ahead as fast as possible, and

Bigelow,
Twas so much. astonished at 886
‘. ing your announcement in the G. Y.
Union, that I ean’t help expressing’
my indignation, and let, me say to
you right here, that you: will loge
some of your best Republican custom, This I know to be a fact, for
I bave heard them ecpress themselves enit, Your very best friends
are disappointe? in you, Bigelow.
I feel as if it is my duty, or some
one’s duty, to tell you first how the
people feel. There are men here in
this city, who could not be mde to
believe yesterday that you would
ever be ong that helped to defeat the
Republican party. Why haye you
. changed your polities? As it for the .
name of running for a little petty
county office? If you were an office
seeker, as ne one ever thougbt you
were, why in the hame of God didn’t
you ask for one from your own’ party? then you might have got it and
been elected; now, neither you nor
your Republican opponent have a
ghost of a show, no more than I
have, so that your friends must necessarily come to the conclusion that
you are paving the way for a clean
Democratic victory; for it is not possible that you are so ‘short sighted us
to think you can be elected by your
handful cf Independent voters. Now
Bigelow, I wish it was se that I
might go to you and give the names
cf the different ones that I have
heard talk about this thing, bnt all
are frieyds of mine, and I don’t want
my name mentioned. I_know that .
. writing ia this way is cowardly, but
T hate to see a man that I have looked on as a friend, fooled and duped
by those ring leaders. You are nce
considered in the ring as yet, unless
your announcement to-day : changes
some of your friends opinions, as
there was o great many who seemed
to think that evenif you did take
the nomination, that ‘Bigelow was
not fool enough to have his name
peddled around the country to get
such an ignominious defeat as you
will be sure to get if-you run. You
know, or ought to know, that you
will net get 25 votes. from the Democratic party; they will all go straight
or nearly so on the day of elec ion,
you may depend.
you expect to get your strength from?
You are possibly led-to believe that
this is not so, but the majority of
the people believe it, und know it.
I hope that if you nave not read the
Grass Valley Union, the editorial of
the 17th, that you will do so. Now,
Bigelow, in the nafhe of common
sense, look at this ina sane light,
and don’t be puffed up by those
soreheads; don’t let the enemies of
our country get the power into their
hands; stick by the old party, and
instead of losing friends and basiness, you will double beth. I will
have to stop here, I did intend to
write more, but am pressed for time.
Hoping that you may see your error
in time to help instead of putting
down the old party, I subseribe_myself, your WELL WIsHER,
Ep. Teanscripr: In regard to: the
letter from my ‘‘Well-Wisher,” I
will reply, that if it only concerned
myself, no notice would be taken of
‘it; but there isa principle involved, .
as old as our Government, which so
forcibly illustrates the necessity af
our Independent movement. thut it is
well to give it a little notice’ I had
somehow got the impression that every American citizen had a birthright inheritance, which consisted
‘of the PRIVILEGE and RESPONSIBILITY
of using his own brains, if he. has
aby, in selecting his politics or religion, and Iam sure that the old fogies who franted our Constitution,
intended that froedom of opinion in
such matters should be the corner
stone of thé grand old structure, the
monument to wisdom, that we hope
and believe will endure to the end
oftime. As regardsthe loss of bus‘jiness, it-is enough to say that I
never begged anyone’s trade, or
courted anyote’s friendship, and
have always had friends and all the
business I wanted to attend to.

E. W. Bicetow.
