ge JUDICIAL ELECTION, __ oto l elnesday, October 13th. For Supreme Judge, 3. W. SANDERSON. Serene cee A Minen’s Conventios.—The Government has ever shown a disposition to do all in ifs. power to aid in the development of the mines of the Pacifie’coast, but it is impossible for Congress. to legislate intelligently upon the question without being better) informed as to the wants and wishes ofminers. The Atlantic States have their representatives who are competent to legislate . “for the advancement of the interest of commerce, agriculture. and other branches of industry. Pennsylvania is represented by men who understand the wants of her coal and iron miners, but they cannot be expected to interest themselves in our local wants. Nor are these interests of the. Atlantic States depetideut alone upon their Representatives’ in Congress. Many of those States are interested in common.and there is @ unity’of action which the Pacific States England States are all interested in manufactures, and when a measure for their benefit is introduced it commands strength from the start. Besides this, the various branches of industry are represented by Societies and Conventions, and from the published reports of these, Congress is better able to understand their wants and legislate intelli. gently forthem. The State must rely sole: ly upon its own Representatives. During the last Congress, the only legislation upon mineral interests proposed in the Senate was by Mr. Couness. He offered two bills __ providing for the sule of mineral lands — “Happily for the welfare ot the State, they both ‘sleep the sleep that knows no waking.” Inthe House of Representatives, a bill, having for its object the establishment of a Mineral Bureau, similar to the Bureau of Agriculture, was considered. ‘This was a step i the right direction, and we hope . that it will be done at the next session of Congress. The miners of this State are deeply interested in the legislation of the next Congress The Atlantic States, in the absence of proper-representations, caunot understand whiy agricultural Jands should be sold and the. . mines exempt. We have no doubt that the next Congress will discuss these matters, and unless miners look well to their inter-. ests, “unfriendly legislation” may place almost insuperable obstacles in the way of the development of the mines. A: miner's Convention, before the meeting of Congress, by a discussion of the questiqns likely to arise, and an indication of the best policy for the Government to pursue, may do mugh to aid in the development of State resources, The Virginia Enterprise, speaking’ of the plan for such a Convention of minets, says: We have not given the subject sufficient thought to feel warranted ip ‘suggesting in detail a plan for securing w proper concert of action for the purp: mentioned; but in the absence of a bétter suggestion, we would propose the calling of were: Conventions in all the mining States and Territories and the selection of delegates toa general Convention, to be held annually atsuch central point ag might be agreed ( The expenses ot these delegates might be defrayed by their respective or Territories, and further appropriu might be made te enable the Corresoading Secretaries of the various State and Territorial organizations (which we would suggest should be permanent) to keep each other apprised of every experiment or discovery of importance transpiring within their knowledge. We think it would be difficult to get a representation from so large a District at _onee, but this need not prevent the assembling of such a Cunvention. California and Nevada are so closely united, that these two States might inaugurate the movement, and invite all other mining communities to join with, them. Let these States move in the matter and others, having like interests, ‘Will soon join with them. We care not what plan may be adopted, but heartily endorse the following temarks of the En erprise: Any plan would subserve the purpose to " 8ome extent, whith would tend to create something like a concert ef thought and action ationg the gold and silver miners of the several States and Territories. Through thie means the Government would be adviged, by an authority which could not be disregarded, uf the necessities of the great mining interests of the nation, and induced in se ee De the mines, to conform iu policy somewhat to the wishes of those best calbalated to-batiélpste its effects. — . New Tevecrarn Lixes.—The Sult Lake ". Uniow Vedette of September 11h, says that = SS Hate exehanges from the west are filled with . -FRID AY-SEPTR 22, 1865, _items about the new lines of telegraph that are to be built immediately overland. The routes of the new lines are to be as followa: One will begin at “Chieago and thence to Omaha, Yort Kearny, Denver and “by the new Holladay road—‘‘Unita Valley wagon road”’ to this city, and hence through Silverland to San Francisco. The other line will begin at Atchison, (to which point the United States Telegraph Company have already nearly completed a line tc St. Louis,) and run from thenee to Fort Kearny, at which point it will foin the first inentioned line and continug' tram ‘thence a double wire to San Francisco. The former is to be finished, by the terms of the gontraet, in October, 1866, and the laiter by next July. The third new “Tightoing line” is to run from San Francisco, via Los Angeles, Prescott, Arizona, Al. buquerque, New Mexico, and Memphis, Tenn., to New Orleans. Verily, in the, _words of Richelieu, ere long “civilization on luminoys wings will fly, Phosnix-like, to the. iminortal Jove.” Can’® STAND THE PREss.—J. Miner's mammoth wagon, says the Marysville Appeal, recently “made atrip to the State of Nevada, with an immense load, going over the Henness Pass. It appears that the proprietor of tne Virginia Turnpike has sume misgivings of the weight of the wagon crushing through and knocking the bottom out of his. road. He don’t believe in having so much “weight for-the wagon.” Mr. Miner, the owner of the big wagon, has received the following “vwurhtry,”’ dated “Bridgeport, September 16, 1865:-4Mr. J. Miner—Sir: I am ordered by the proprietors of the Vir. ginia Turopike Road to notify you that you are forbidden to attempt to cross-any of the bridges on the said Virginia Turnpike Road with a load exéeeding twenty thousand (20, 000) pounds on one wagon,” If you disregard this notice you do so at your own risk: Cocusa OIL SpRinGs.— The Sun says that there are now seven companies actually at work and several others, preparing to go to work boring for-oil in that county. All have flattering prospects. Even those who commenced where there were no surface indications within a mile of them have now some oil, It isall over that district and must be in quantities somewhere. A1l the companiés now at work will be apt to go down from five hundred to a thousand feet if they do not strike oil sooner. Tue Calaveras’ Chronicle says :—On Tuesday last, an’ Indian was caught in a bear trap and‘instantly killed at Big Meadows, Alpiné county. He had seen the trap baited with a quarter of mutton, which he conclided to steal and was caught in the act. Thé fall of the trap was made of heavy timAer and armed with heavy spikes which entered the Indian's: body. It is suspected that he had been guilty of several murders iu that vicinity. CANDIDATE FoR CLERK. —We understand that M. D. Boruck, editor of the Spirit of the Times, will be a candidate for Clerk of the ‘next Assembly. Mr. Bortick is in every wiy q@ilified for the position of Clerk. and by his constant devotion to principle has merited and deserves the support of the Union men elect to the Assembly. No aspirant has ‘stronger claims than Mr. Boruck. ne Eastern Irems.—The Sacramento Union of yesterday has dispatches te the 18th. Geneful Sheridan’s army is said tobe mMaking the Imperialists very nervous. The Scuth Carolina Convention passed, without debate, an ordinance uguiust secession. Hunter of Virginia has been released on parole and has returned to his home. The Pacific squadron is to be reinforced by the Monadnock, one of the most formidable iron clads, the Tusearata and the steam frigate Vanderbilt, all under command of Commodore Rodgers. IN Cincitinati, on the 4th of July, a live lion was carried around in the procéssion — He got away onee and jumped into the erowd, creating great consternation, but he was Soon recaptured by his keeper.
