FRIDAY MORNING, Sept., 9, 1859. ter Sart Warer.—In_ looking over the columns of the Mystic Proneer,a spicy little paper published way down in Mystic, Ct. we noticed a correspondence from “Salt Point.” We have taken the liberty of republishing the letter. It will explain itself. We do it knowing there are many eéverin this vicinity who are not aware of the extent of our Salt Manufactures and Springs, and the wealth that continually flows from them. Our Salina Letters. Satt Point, N. Y. Eptror oF Pioneer,—Sir, receiv-~ ing the Mystic Puoneer this morning damp from your press, reminds us of a promise we made you some few weeks since, in relation toa letter on the subject of Salt; and, notwithstanding the thermometer is 90 in the shade, we will commence, feeling incompetent to give'anything like an adequate description of our salt manufactures and salt springs or to please the readers of the Pioneer. However, we will briefly as possible take a glance over what we call the Reservation, which means the salt lands or the lands owned by the State. The salt springs are of no recent discovery.

Monsieur Blondin’s Fourth Crossing.-—Niagara Falls was a swarming hive again, yesterday, filled and overflowifg with an immense throng of people collected to witness the fourth repetition of Monsieur Blondin’s daring feat of crossing the chasm upon a cable scretched between the cliffs. The crowd gathered was almost, if not quite, equal to that ou any former oc» casion, and the gathering was warranted, for the sighs which was wit nessed surpassed ail the previous exhibitions of the same character. From this city we should judge that the attendance was greater than at any time befcre, and from Rochester and other places in the vicinity, on both sides of the line, it could not havebeen much less, ifany. Ali the seats and stand places within view along the bank in the pleasure grounds upon this side of the river were crowded, and the inclosvre upon the Canada side was better filled than upon any other occasion. Monsieur Blondin rode into the pleasure ground on this side about half past four o'clock, and started upon his serial journey after a few moments of delay in preparation. His trip across deer long ago frequented” these sali~. to the Canadian shore was accomplishnes. The former making salt enough to season his bear meat, (if he chose to use it.) and the latter to lick the salt whichis continually making on the earth’s surface when the sun shines. Butit has been left for the white man to descend into the bowels of the earth, and bring out its wealth in the way of brine, which as we shall show, not only enriches the State, but makes us one of the most flourishing and popolous cities in central New York. We learn bya _ report of one of the old superintendents of the salt springs, that the first lots ed quickly as he proceeded ata tripping pace most of the distance, and only paused a few seconds occasionally to correct his balance and obtain slight rest.g All of his feats he reserved for the rn journey. Arrived atthe Canadian bank, he refreshed himself a little, and took a rest of perhaps fifteen minutes, when he again stepped upon the rope and tripped down the slant, airy plane, toward “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” When about half way tothe sentre, he stopped and sat down, then stretched himself leased by the State for the purpose of . at full length upon the rope, then permaking salt, was in 1797. During that year there were 25,474 bushels of salt manufactured. Since that time the business has rapidly increased, until it has reached the almost incredible amount (iu 1858S) of 7,033,219 bushels, or 1,406,644 barrels, which was sold for $1 25 per barrel, (Daball’s arithmetic being found in almost every house N. L. Co., we will let every reader figure the amount into dollars and cents for himself.) We have some twelve wells, aver~ aging in depth from 200 to 300 feet. Four pump houses, costing near 100,000, laboring day and night, like mighty giants, sucking, as it were, the very life’s blood from the heart of the earth. then throwing it in streams, eight inches in diameter, high into the air, depositing it in strong and immense reservoirs erected for the purpose. We have also earth reservoirs on some elevated positions for low field works.—One we will give you for asample which holds brine enough to make 600,000 bushels of salt. The brine is carried from these reservoirs through large logs to any part of the reservation, a distance of several miles. containing 16,434 kettles under which coal or wood fire blazes, as unendirg . as the fires I was wont to hear about when 1 was a Sunday School boy at Upper Mystic. In addition to those blecks, as we call them, we have 30,~ 786 salt covers for solar works, covering 600 acres of rich and beantiful land. Tuere is over $2,000,000 of private capital engaged in the business saying nothing of the pump houses, and the endless net work of logs, land, &c., which belongs to the State, forjthe use of which the manufactur. ers pay the State one cent for every bushel manufactured. This duty at the first thought, seems small, but last year the State received from our reservation $70,332 and some cents. We employ on and around this _reservation, directly or indirecly, some 5000 men and women, who are barrelmakers, boilers, packers, carpenters, &c: The amount of wood and coal consumed, we cannot at this time give you, but to say it is immense does not express it. e could continue our article at still greater length, go into particulars, and make it like one of Cobb’s stories, whieh is always continued in the New York Ledger, but we are not only aware that we have intruded upon our time, patience and paper, but but we are also aware that many of your readers are Old Salts and will not relish a dish that flavors too much of Turk'’s Island. So we will close. hoping that Mustic will increase in wealth and ecommerce, and that our Salt Springs will never be PLUGGED uP. “Seru.’ Syracuse paper. Collins Steamers—-The Collins steamers,the Atlantic and Baltic,hav~ jog been purchased for: the Mail Steamship Company, will hereafter run between New York and Aspinwall, while the Adriatic, also purchae sed, willrun between Panama and San Francisco, We have 312 salt blocks . formed a number of daring antics, and finally stood upright on his head, remaining it that reserved position fora length of time which seemed a moment at least, swinging and kicking his feet in the most reckless though ludicrous manner that can be conceived of. Resuming his journey he proceeded but a little way when he again halted and repeated his perfurmanée with the addition ct a backward somersault, and one or two sudden swings around the rope, which caused a general flutter among hearts cf the spectators, and br t little screams from many of the ladies. Starting forward again, he proceeded to the open space in the centre, between the extreme guy ropes that branch off to either bank, where the cable spans the gulf without stay or accompaniment. Here he paused again, and laying his pole upon one of the guy ropes, he swung himself under the cable and ran across this central space of single cord, in the style of a monkey ; hanging beneath, and swinging himself by his hands and feet, with great rapidity. Going back again in the same gymnastic manner, when he had returned tothe point where his pole rested he began a series of performances whieh outdid, in thrilling and siartling effect upon the nerves of the spectators, all that he had done before. Clutching the rope with his hands, he swung his body clear from it, and hung*for a lengthy period, of more than seconds, suspended by the arms, and by one arm, over the fearful depth ofthechasm. Then he repeatedly turned such a somersault as is familiar to boys, throwing his feet over his head and between his arms, and hanging with the shoulder joints in a most unnatural position. Then he straightened his body into a horizontal position, still suspended by the arms thrown backwards as described—an exertion requiring immense strength, and calculated to exhaust the nervous system tremendously. After this he suspended himself by the legs, and by one single leg, head downward—whirled around the rope—turned more somersaults—stood upon his head again, and performed all the most reckless feats attempted by tight-rope performers under ordinary circumstances. Twice again before reachiug the bank he halted and repeated some of these antics. being determined to fatigue himself tothe last point of endurance and thoroughly satisfy the spectators with his exhibition of daring and skill. And they were satisfied beyond question. The performance was wonderful, and exciting enough for the most greedy seeker after sensations; and was by far the greatest yet given, by Mons. Blondin.—Buffalo Express, August 4th.

[From the Atlantic Monthly for August.] Under Mount Etna he lies, It ie slumber, it is not death ; For he struggles at times to arise, And above him the lurid skies Are hot with his fiery breath. The crags are piled on his breast, The earth is heaped on his head; But the groans of his wild unrest, Though smothered and half suppressed, Are heard, and he is not dead, And the nations far away Are watching with eager eyes ; ‘They talk together and say, “To-morrow, perhaps to-day, Enceladus will arise!’ And the old gods, the austere Oppressors in their strength, Stand aghast and white ‘with fear, At the ominous sounds they hear, And tremble, and mutter, “At Length !’, Ah, me! for the land that is sown With the harvest of despair! Where the burning cinders, blown From thelips of the overthrown Enceladus fill the air. Where ashes are heaped in drifts Over Vineyard and field and town, Whenever he starts and lifts His head through the blackened rifts Of the cragsthatkeep him down. See, see! the red light shines! °Tia the glare of his awful eyes! And the storm-wind shouts through the pines Of ‘Alps and of Appenines, “Enceladus, arise!’ The Discovery of the Pacific. Aithough the Pacific was first seen seven years after the death of Columbus, by Vasco 8 de Balboa. from the summit of the Sierra de Quarezua, on the Isthmus of Panama, and a few days af:erwards navigated in a canoe by Don Alonso Martin de Benito, Columbus had obtained precise information of its existence eleven years before, inthe year 1502, during his feurth voyage, the one in which he most displayed the vigor of his genius He gained the information at Puerto de Petrete, onthe east coastof Veragua; and he points out, in his carta rarisima, of the 7th of July, 1503, in the letter wherein he so poetically describes his magnificent dreams, in the clearest manner, the two opposite lying oceans, or as his sop. says in the biography of his fatherthe contractior (estrechez) of the cortinent at that part. The ocean whose existence tad been revealed to him by the natives of the country, must lead. he thought, tothe golden Chersonesus of Ptolemy and the East Asiatic land of spices, whither, some day, North American fleets, built in San Francisco, will sail under the guidance of the chronometor. The distance ina straight line, from the Atlantic coast to that of San Francisco, in California is about 2,200 miles; andthere is a knid of pleasure in looking back to small beginning of our knowledge of the Pacific—to all that Columbus could know of it on his deathbed—at atime when such gigantic projects are entertained of railways and oceantic eanals through the Narpi and Cupica ; through the Atrato and the Rio Truardo; the Guasacualco and the Chimalapa; through the Rio San Juan and Lake Nicaragua, That great Columbus, half-forgotten, as I have elsewhere shown, even by his cotemporaries, died at Valladolid, 20th of May, 1506, in the firm belief, shared also by Awerico Vespucci until his death at Seville, (Feb. 22d, 1522, (that they had discovered ouly the coast of the continent of Asia, and no new partof the world. Columbus considered the seathat washed the western part of Veragua, so near the gold Chersonesus, that he compares the relative positions of the Province of Ciguare, in West Veragua and Puerto Petrete to those of Venice and Pisa, or from Tortosa, at the mouth of the Ebro, to Fuenterabia or the Bidassoa, in Biscay; and he reckoned from Ciguare to the Ganges only nine days’ journey. It appears to me worthy of consideration, tov, that at the present day, the gold fields, which the carta rarisima of Columbus points out as lying in the most eastern part of Asia, are really to be found on the western side of the new continent.

Napoleon IT. —It appears that the meeting of the Emperor of France and the Emperor of Austria, at VillaFranca, was a stipulation providing for the removal of the remains of Napoleon II from Vienna to Paris. A deputation, headed by Prince Napoleon, will soon proceed to _Vienna, to take the remains of the Duc de Reichstadt, (Napoleon IL.) which are deposited in the Augustine Monastery at Vienna, and convey them to France, where they will be placed by the side of those ofhis father Napoleon I. The Sacramentc Bee, says, there is a strong probability that the opposition will unite in that county on ene ticket. ("The Mariposa Gazette, after telling that a dog was shot in that place for biting a lady’s leg, says it was a pity to shoot a dog with such a fine taste, Twenty-leading Democratic papers of Mississippi advocate the re-openirg of the slave trade, and Mr. Buchanan’s Collector at Vicksburg openly and offensively urges itas a party measure.

The invention eonsists of forcing Quicksilver into blocks of wood, which are usea as false bottoms for sluiees, thereby giving a Quicksilver surface until the blocks are worn out. As the blocks are gradually worn by the gravel, a fresh supply of Quicksilver is constantly exposed, ready to amalgamate the gold that comes in contact with them. The machines for forcing Quicksilver into the blocks, areof simple construction and durable. On man can press in one hundred pounds of Quicksilver in aday, which will give a hundred feet of Quicksilver surface, and the process is easily learned: _ The shop cost of the machines, are from $14 to $20, according to size. The following letters from practical Miners at Michigan Bluffs, Placer County, where the PATENT RIFFLES were first introduced, will show the estimativn in which they are held by those who haveused thein; Micniean Bucrrs, March 28th, ’59. Mr. Briggs, Sir, I have used your Patent Quicksilver Block Riffles, and consider them the best method for saving fine gold everused. I used them on the American River this last summer, and found that by using them, I could save one-fourth more gold, than by any other Riffles now‘in use. Hoping that your Riffles will be extensively introduced throughout the State, and meet with the success they deserve. Iremain yours truly. Grorce E. Benet, Micniean Buurrs, April Oth ’59 Mr. Briggs, Sir. I have used your patent amalgamating Riffle and am satisfied that itis a good invention; we have cleaned up more and finer gold than we ever did before in the same length of time. There has not beenas much wash running in the gulch as there will be by and by, as the boys have not commenced washing pay dirt yet. Yours truly, CHAS. W. COOK. I am now for the first time, trying to introduce the AwALGAMATING RirFLe into the mines generally. After being thoroughly convinced of its util. ity and practicability, I am now prepared to fill orders for all parties that may wish to use it, on very REASONABLE TERMS, ZF or Particulars, address J.
