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 . t aR * “is now being sent to the Oriental and tantly. * @ffice, in this city, for the week ending "Nevada.

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. A erushing of fifty tons ot the rock Marchie mills. The owners are confident that it will pay well. as they go in on the ledge the better the rock lewks. They will now drive the work ahead as fast as possible, and before long the rock they will take out will keep a mill running con, Advertised Letters, The following letters remain in the Post * Monday, August 30th, 1875. . .

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. ; Respectfully yours, : E.
