Jt will be remembered that Lady Franklin fitted out, last year, chiefly at her own cost, a final expedition which sailed months ago in search of her lost husband. This expedition has been heard from, and the Arctic steamer For had returned with interesting relics of Franklin, his lost ships and crew. At Fort Wibliam, say the newspapers briefly, was found a record, “dated April 25th, 1848, signed by Capt Crenier and Fitz James, saying the Hrebus and Terror were abandoned three days previous in the ice, and that 105 survivors were proceeding to Great Fish river. Sir John Franklin had diced June }1th of the previous year, and that the total deaths to date were 9 officers and 15 men. Many interesting retics were found on the western shore of Kiag William’s Island; others were obtained from Esquimaux, who stated that after the abandonment of the ships one was crushed by the ice and the other forced ashore. Several skeletons of Franklin’s men, quantities of clothing, and a duplicate record, up to the abandonment of the ships, were discovered.” Thus closes one of the most profoundly interesting stories in all human history— abounding in the most exalted courage, in acts of disinterested heroism and in examples of the purest and strongest friendship. eae zap Cotcmpia Hitt.—Application for the establishment of a post-office at this place Was made some time ago, and a petition for the purpose received 300 signatures. Mr. Fry, the Postal Agent, who is now on his way to, or at Washington, promised to use his influence to secure tlre desire of the citizens. The second term of the Columbia Hill school commenced Iast Monday. A census of the scholars has Iately been taken, and it appears that the district contains thirty-fwo ‘children between the ages of four and eighteen. The present teacher is Mr. Oliver Bodle, who crossed the plains this year, and is said to be well qualified. The establishment of this school by the citizens, during the trying period of a mining strike and without public aid, is a very creditable circumstance. Mr. Weller has commenced a singing scheol with good success. A number of ladies attend it regularly. 5 A Snos.—Grantley F. Berkeley, known as the British Nimrod, who says he came to America for the noble purpose of inducing ‘a fraternization between the sportsmen and dogs of the two countries’, complains, in a letter to the Smril of the Times, that the Yankee railway and steamboat agents do not know how to treat a gentleman’s dog, providing for them no special accommodation, and exposing their prescious legs to the extreme chances of fracture amongst freight and baggage. He is afraid the civilizing object he contemplated will be thwarted by such barbarity, and affectingly observes that he wonld not have minded any cost, provided gold could buy safe and comfortable quarters for animals who had shared his parlor and his home for years. All this is amusing, and yet there is a dash of right good feeling in it which makes the British Nimrod appear quite amiable. Sais s The Cal. Home Journal, which maintains its high literary character and is becoming, what for the credit of the State it should have been long ago, 2 popular favorite, contains a suggestive article from the pen of Mr. Hittell, in which that gentleman intimates that Unitarianism, or something even broader, is the religion of genius. [In support of this idea as applied to America, he adduces the well known names of Channing, J. Q. Ad ams, Dr. Bellows, Edward Everett, Wendell Phillips, O. W. Holmes, Longfellow, Lowell, Bryant, Dana, Curtis, Allston, Prescott, Margaret Fuller, and a number of minor ceIebrities, not to speak of the heterodox Parker and philosophical Emerson. The writer says “fault finders may abuse the Unitarian church, but the latest times shall bless it as the mother and nurse of some of the greatest and noblest men whom earth . has produced.” © Fuxyy.—Namby Pamby Willis, as the New York b’hoys used to call the author of “Pencilings by the Way,” published a strange and interesting story about Lieut. Maury, to the effect that the philosophic sailor had once been the two months husband of a South Sea Island Princess. The narrative purports ta have been told by its hero himself, but the marine geographer “ denies the soft impeachment” quite positively. * Stephen C. Massett, who has gone around the world singing and telling stories, has returnei to California. sca seat ota, The S. F. Times says Blondin proposes to walk on Mason &. Dixon’s line, with the Hon. Stephen A. Douglas on his back. Maj. S. J. Hensley had on exhibition at the San Jose Fair superior specimens of oranges and figs of the second crop. unmistakable signs of permanence. { Instead . calmed down in Nevada and Sierra counties, of being amere camp of gold hunters, as . where reliable information was had from the . formerly, it is the abode of numerous: fami. lies whose interests and affections are fixed in theplace. The reduction in the price of . water will open a great number of mining . claims to profitable labor, and increase the working population largely. But Sweetland has diggings which would be preductive under any circumstances. The old sandy slopes of the creek banks wiil pay well for surface sluicing, amd aretaken up fof that purpose. Manzanita Hill, lying on the right bank ef Sweetland Creek, has frequently . been mentioned for the large yields of some of theclaims opened years since in its front. One set of these, belonging to the Kentucky Co., is now being washed with favorable indications of ultimate reward. The bank is upwards of a hundred feet deep, and will probably soon become deeper. The Buck & Breck claims will be worked again in a week ortwo. The last washing in them was very profitable, and led to the finding of several small nuggets, one of which weigbed $55.— The yields ef Moore & Co’s. claims we have before given at from $1,009 to $1,200 a run. There are other claims of good repute adjoining them now being prepared for washing. The flat back of the above diggings ex~ tends to Junction Bluff, a distance of a mile, at least: it is all auriferous, and all chaimed. Mr. 5. T. Curtis, Assemblyman elect from this district, owns large body of ground lying through the swpposed deepest part of this flat, and is new running a tunnel into it for the purpose of thoroughly testing its value by next spring. Other claimants will doubtless follow his example. Nearly opposite this flat, on the left bank of the creek, is Buckeye Hill, another extensive bed of auriferous gravel, first worked in 1853. Ifere are situated the well known claims of Lewis & Hiscox and Orlando Evans & Co. The base of the hill is micaceous slate veined with quartz and containing indications of copper, the sulphate of that metal appearing in blee crystals at one spot. The gravel for from ten to twenty-five fect above the rock has paid handsomely for drifting, yielding larger net profts than have been obtained from almost any other claims. Into Lewis & Hiscox’ elaims several drifts, all of which have to be heavily timbered and planked, are being run in different directions with uniform success. We saw three prospects obtained from them at places one hundred fect apart, and above the bed-rock, each of which was worth from fifteen to twenty-five cents.— Much larger prospects can be obtained, 1f sought for. The dirt is at present wheeled out in barrows, two men taking offwhat two others can pick; but a large main @rift is be= ing run, through which the earth can be hauled out, great car loads at atime, by a mule over a wooden railway. The company ere also pushing in a bed-rock tunnel, al~ ready some five hundred feet long, through which they can hereafter wash the whole bank by the hydraulic process. This tunnel when completed will be about one hundred feet below the surface of the rock, and two hundred below that of the gravel. at present It costs Fresh air is forced into it from the mouth by a very simple contrivance on the hydraulic pressure principle —a column of water falls through a perpendicular pipe into a barrel, the upper half of which serves as an air chamber whence the air is conducted by pipes into the tunnel. Evans & Co. are drifting and hydraulicing both, and running a tunnet besides. Their claims adjoin those above described, and present the same characteristicse We lately chronicled a four dollar prospect obtained from them, fifteen feet above the rock, and have frequently reported weekly yields from them of $5,000. When the earth on Buckeye Hill is washed entirely by the hydraulic process, the regular yields will astonish the whole State. There are no placer diggings in California superior to those around Sweetland. Along the bed of the creck are half a dozen tail sluices, which are important features in the resources of the place. They have been described before. Near town a fine granite quarry is being worked by Briggs & Co. Therock is easily got out in slabs of almost any size, and must some day be in great demand. We are informed that some of it has been used in Marysville. Sluice and building lumber is furnished from the saw-mill of the Shawmut Company, which . has been many years in operation. . The buildings now going up in and around town are substantial and tasteful. There are several pretty cottages on the hill-sides, . whose owners manifest a disposition to . beautify their homes and add to the wealth of the community by cultivation of the soil. The low, warm hills that surround the town are admirably adapted to horticultural pur. poses. Mr. 0. Evans, (whose elegant new cottage, situated-on a sloping hill amid embowering oaks, isa prophecy of what this $35 a foot. several hundred grape vines, which bore prolifically the present season, and will be next . . . } outset. Many citizens of Nevada county were the first to visit the new mixes, and have made fortunes by the operation. The news continues to be highly favorable. The opinion ‘we expressed, after personal observation in Western Utah, that the silver dis‘coveries would be numerous and scattered over a wide scope of country, is justified by recent occurrences. Several new leads have been found at points widely separated in different directions, and assays prdécured which range from $800 to $1,300, according to figures published by a cotemporaty.— While we rejoice at this, amd consider it as hastening the settlement of the embryo territory of Nevada, affording a market for ‘California produce and rendering certain the speedy construction of a trans-continental railway, we mast yet warn Californians to be in no haste to abandon the certainties of this State for the alluring prospects of the silver mines. The winter scason opposes almost insuperable obstacles to a trip across the mountains, and we expect to hear of much suffering amomgst those who have indiscreetly attempted it so latein the year. Those who wish to go for the gratification of their curiosity, or in search of metalic wealth, should remember the deep snows that blockade the mountain roads, and delay their journey until spring. By that time there will be several stage lines on the route and all the accommodations for travelers which are now lacking, so that the trip can be made safely, quickly and ata small expense. 3ut no arguments ought to be needed to persnade people to stay at home until a more propitious season. The immense quartz ledges which we have heretofore @escribed cannot all be prospected for several years, nor will they fail toremain where they are tntil another summer opens; so that those who wait till then are as likely to find new Potosis as though they were seeking them now through rain, wind and snow. Meanwhile, the impatient ones can gratify their adventutcus dispositions by running tunnels into the numerous spurs and hills lying up the Ridge as yet unprospected. ‘There are fortunes buried nearer home that Washo, which only await strong arms and courageous perseverance to glitter in the light and confer comfort and happiness. cs vega = Scunpa¥ Marm.—The papers below are justly complaining of the detention at the Bay of the Orizaba’s mail, which arrived Saturday night and did not reach Sacramento until Tuesday morning. The letters for this place did not come to hand until Thursday. There is ne goed reason for not having a Sunday mail. If Sabbatarian scruples trouble the department or those who do its errards, they should at least be consistent and net allow the ocean steamers te @esecrate the Lord’s day by sailing, aed the Stage companies should also refuse to run for the accommodation of passengers en that day. The press of the cities, which are most interested in this matter, ought to: call without ceasing for a Sunday mail until the public wish is granted. 0< a Uran Srace Lixe.—Two stage wagons passed through town, yesterday morning, en route from Marysville to Western Utah. We presume they are intended for the line of passenger ceaches which is to be established by Mott & Fall, of Marysville, and to make trips every other day from Downiceville through the Yuba Gap to Sierra Valley, thence through Long Valley to Pearine Springs, thence to Truckee Meadows, Steamboat and Washoe Valleys, Carson City and Virginia Diggings. The Marysville Express says they expect to make regular trips all winter, but in this we think they will be disappointed, unless the winter proves to be one of remarkable mildness. Seg gee A Negotiations are still pending between the Eureka Lake Ditch Co. and Dr. Weaver, in relation to the purchase, by the latter, of the Poor Man’s Ditch. Should this be effected, as it is thought it will be, water is sure to be plentiful and cheap at a comparatively early day, and Columbia Hill, in common with a large extent of mining country surrounding it, will enter immediately upon a career of prospertty. i Hutchings’ Magazine for November continues an interesting series of illustrated articles on the great Yosemite Valley, whose sublime rocky cliffs and water falls that lose themselves in mist, are undeniably the world’s most wonderful scenery.

A correspondent of the Union writes of him thus: “That venerable champion of the turf, sightless as Milten, has a hold upon the general affections which age and infirmities seem but to have strengthened; nor have age and infirmities blanted ‘his indomitable courage and proudambition. It issaid that as he approached the amphitheater, on the . day of the exhibition, held by four stalwart men, the tap of the drum—to him the only threw him into such a fever of excitement that some of his grooms were violently dashed against the adjacent trees, and he himself with difficulty restrained. When finally he was led into the ring, and the muo sic hushed, he trembled like the aspen leaf, . and as he stepped seemed to be talking in air. Imagining, doubtless, that he tro@ the familiar turf, with pointed ears he awaited the tap of the drum, all the while prancing as if eager for the contest.

Jt will be remembered that Lady Franklin fitted out, last year, chiefly at her own cost, a final expedition which sailed months ago in search of her lost husband. This expedition has been heard from, and the Arctic steamer For had returned with interesting relics of Franklin, his lost ships and crew. At Fort Wibliam, say the newspapers briefly, was found a record, “dated April 25th, 1848, signed by Capt Crenier and Fitz James, saying the Hrebus and Terror were abandoned three days previous in the ice, and that 105 survivors were proceeding to Great Fish river. Sir John Franklin had diced June }1th of the previous year, and that the total deaths to date were 9 officers and 15 men. Many interesting retics were found on the western shore of Kiag William’s Island; others were obtained from Esquimaux, who stated that after the abandonment of the ships one was crushed by the ice and the other forced ashore. Several skeletons of Franklin’s men, quantities of clothing, and a duplicate record, up to the abandonment of the ships, were discovered.” Thus closes one of the most profoundly interesting stories in all human history— abounding in the most exalted courage, in acts of disinterested heroism and in examples of the purest and strongest friendship. eae zap Cotcmpia Hitt.—Application for the establishment of a post-office at this place Was made some time ago, and a petition for the purpose received 300 signatures. Mr. Fry, the Postal Agent, who is now on his way to, or at Washington, promised to use his influence to secure tlre desire of the citizens. The second term of the Columbia Hill school commenced Iast Monday. A census of the scholars has Iately been taken, and it appears that the district contains thirty-fwo ‘children between the ages of four and eighteen. The present teacher is Mr. Oliver Bodle, who crossed the plains this year, and is said to be well qualified. The establishment of this school by the citizens, during the trying period of a mining strike and without public aid, is a very creditable circumstance. Mr. Weller has commenced a singing scheol with good success. A number of ladies attend it regularly. 5 A Snos.—Grantley F. Berkeley, known as the British Nimrod, who says he came to America for the noble purpose of inducing ‘a fraternization between the sportsmen and dogs of the two countries’, complains, in a letter to the Smril of the Times, that the Yankee railway and steamboat agents do not know how to treat a gentleman’s dog, providing for them no special accommodation, and exposing their prescious legs to the extreme chances of fracture amongst freight and baggage. He is afraid the civilizing object he contemplated will be thwarted by such barbarity, and affectingly observes that he wonld not have minded any cost, provided gold could buy safe and comfortable quarters for animals who had shared his parlor and his home for years. All this is amusing, and yet there is a dash of right good feeling in it which makes the British Nimrod appear quite amiable. Sais s The Cal. Home Journal, which maintains its high literary character and is becoming, what for the credit of the State it should have been long ago, 2 popular favorite, contains a suggestive article from the pen of Mr. Hittell, in which that gentleman intimates that Unitarianism, or something even broader, is the religion of genius. [In support of this idea as applied to America, he adduces the well known names of Channing, J. Q. Ad ams, Dr. Bellows, Edward Everett, Wendell Phillips, O. W. Holmes, Longfellow, Lowell, Bryant, Dana, Curtis, Allston, Prescott, Margaret Fuller, and a number of minor ceIebrities, not to speak of the heterodox Parker and philosophical Emerson. The writer says “fault finders may abuse the Unitarian church, but the latest times shall bless it as the mother and nurse of some of the greatest and noblest men whom earth . has produced.” © Fuxyy.—Namby Pamby Willis, as the New York b’hoys used to call the author of “Pencilings by the Way,” published a strange and interesting story about Lieut. Maury, to the effect that the philosophic sailor had once been the two months husband of a South Sea Island Princess. The narrative purports ta have been told by its hero himself, but the marine geographer “ denies the soft impeachment” quite positively. * Stephen C. Massett, who has gone around the world singing and telling stories, has returnei to California. sca seat ota, The S. F. Times says Blondin proposes to walk on Mason &. Dixon’s line, with the Hon. Stephen A. Douglas on his back. Maj. S. J. Hensley had on exhibition at the San Jose Fair superior specimens of oranges and figs of the second crop. unmistakable signs of permanence. { Instead . calmed down in Nevada and Sierra counties, of being amere camp of gold hunters, as . where reliable information was had from the . formerly, it is the abode of numerous: fami. lies whose interests and affections are fixed in theplace. The reduction in the price of . water will open a great number of mining . claims to profitable labor, and increase the working population largely. But Sweetland has diggings which would be preductive under any circumstances. The old sandy slopes of the creek banks wiil pay well for surface sluicing, amd aretaken up fof that purpose. Manzanita Hill, lying on the right bank ef Sweetland Creek, has frequently . been mentioned for the large yields of some of theclaims opened years since in its front. One set of these, belonging to the Kentucky Co., is now being washed with favorable indications of ultimate reward. The bank is upwards of a hundred feet deep, and will probably soon become deeper. The Buck & Breck claims will be worked again in a week ortwo. The last washing in them was very profitable, and led to the finding of several small nuggets, one of which weigbed $55.— The yields ef Moore & Co’s. claims we have before given at from $1,009 to $1,200 a run. There are other claims of good repute adjoining them now being prepared for washing. The flat back of the above diggings ex~ tends to Junction Bluff, a distance of a mile, at least: it is all auriferous, and all chaimed. Mr. 5. T. Curtis, Assemblyman elect from this district, owns large body of ground lying through the swpposed deepest part of this flat, and is new running a tunnel into it for the purpose of thoroughly testing its value by next spring. Other claimants will doubtless follow his example. Nearly opposite this flat, on the left bank of the creek, is Buckeye Hill, another extensive bed of auriferous gravel, first worked in 1853. Ifere are situated the well known claims of Lewis & Hiscox and Orlando Evans & Co. The base of the hill is micaceous slate veined with quartz and containing indications of copper, the sulphate of that metal appearing in blee crystals at one spot. The gravel for from ten to twenty-five fect above the rock has paid handsomely for drifting, yielding larger net profts than have been obtained from almost any other claims. Into Lewis & Hiscox’ elaims several drifts, all of which have to be heavily timbered and planked, are being run in different directions with uniform success. We saw three prospects obtained from them at places one hundred fect apart, and above the bed-rock, each of which was worth from fifteen to twenty-five cents.— Much larger prospects can be obtained, 1f sought for. The dirt is at present wheeled out in barrows, two men taking offwhat two others can pick; but a large main @rift is be= ing run, through which the earth can be hauled out, great car loads at atime, by a mule over a wooden railway. The company ere also pushing in a bed-rock tunnel, al~ ready some five hundred feet long, through which they can hereafter wash the whole bank by the hydraulic process. This tunnel when completed will be about one hundred feet below the surface of the rock, and two hundred below that of the gravel. at present It costs Fresh air is forced into it from the mouth by a very simple contrivance on the hydraulic pressure principle —a column of water falls through a perpendicular pipe into a barrel, the upper half of which serves as an air chamber whence the air is conducted by pipes into the tunnel. Evans & Co. are drifting and hydraulicing both, and running a tunnet besides. Their claims adjoin those above described, and present the same characteristicse We lately chronicled a four dollar prospect obtained from them, fifteen feet above the rock, and have frequently reported weekly yields from them of $5,000. When the earth on Buckeye Hill is washed entirely by the hydraulic process, the regular yields will astonish the whole State. There are no placer diggings in California superior to those around Sweetland. Along the bed of the creck are half a dozen tail sluices, which are important features in the resources of the place. They have been described before. Near town a fine granite quarry is being worked by Briggs & Co. Therock is easily got out in slabs of almost any size, and must some day be in great demand. We are informed that some of it has been used in Marysville. Sluice and building lumber is furnished from the saw-mill of the Shawmut Company, which . has been many years in operation. . The buildings now going up in and around town are substantial and tasteful. There are several pretty cottages on the hill-sides, . whose owners manifest a disposition to . beautify their homes and add to the wealth of the community by cultivation of the soil. The low, warm hills that surround the town are admirably adapted to horticultural pur. poses. Mr. 0. Evans, (whose elegant new cottage, situated-on a sloping hill amid embowering oaks, isa prophecy of what this $35 a foot. several hundred grape vines, which bore prolifically the present season, and will be next . . . } outset. Many citizens of Nevada county were the first to visit the new mixes, and have made fortunes by the operation. The news continues to be highly favorable. The opinion ‘we expressed, after personal observation in Western Utah, that the silver dis‘coveries would be numerous and scattered over a wide scope of country, is justified by recent occurrences. Several new leads have been found at points widely separated in different directions, and assays prdécured which range from $800 to $1,300, according to figures published by a cotemporaty.— While we rejoice at this, amd consider it as hastening the settlement of the embryo territory of Nevada, affording a market for ‘California produce and rendering certain the speedy construction of a trans-continental railway, we mast yet warn Californians to be in no haste to abandon the certainties of this State for the alluring prospects of the silver mines. The winter scason opposes almost insuperable obstacles to a trip across the mountains, and we expect to hear of much suffering amomgst those who have indiscreetly attempted it so latein the year. Those who wish to go for the gratification of their curiosity, or in search of metalic wealth, should remember the deep snows that blockade the mountain roads, and delay their journey until spring. By that time there will be several stage lines on the route and all the accommodations for travelers which are now lacking, so that the trip can be made safely, quickly and ata small expense. 3ut no arguments ought to be needed to persnade people to stay at home until a more propitious season. The immense quartz ledges which we have heretofore @escribed cannot all be prospected for several years, nor will they fail toremain where they are tntil another summer opens; so that those who wait till then are as likely to find new Potosis as though they were seeking them now through rain, wind and snow. Meanwhile, the impatient ones can gratify their adventutcus dispositions by running tunnels into the numerous spurs and hills lying up the Ridge as yet unprospected. ‘There are fortunes buried nearer home that Washo, which only await strong arms and courageous perseverance to glitter in the light and confer comfort and happiness. cs vega = Scunpa¥ Marm.—The papers below are justly complaining of the detention at the Bay of the Orizaba’s mail, which arrived Saturday night and did not reach Sacramento until Tuesday morning. The letters for this place did not come to hand until Thursday. There is ne goed reason for not having a Sunday mail. If Sabbatarian scruples trouble the department or those who do its errards, they should at least be consistent and net allow the ocean steamers te @esecrate the Lord’s day by sailing, aed the Stage companies should also refuse to run for the accommodation of passengers en that day. The press of the cities, which are most interested in this matter, ought to: call without ceasing for a Sunday mail until the public wish is granted. 0< a Uran Srace Lixe.—Two stage wagons passed through town, yesterday morning, en route from Marysville to Western Utah. We presume they are intended for the line of passenger ceaches which is to be established by Mott & Fall, of Marysville, and to make trips every other day from Downiceville through the Yuba Gap to Sierra Valley, thence through Long Valley to Pearine Springs, thence to Truckee Meadows, Steamboat and Washoe Valleys, Carson City and Virginia Diggings. The Marysville Express says they expect to make regular trips all winter, but in this we think they will be disappointed, unless the winter proves to be one of remarkable mildness. Seg gee A Negotiations are still pending between the Eureka Lake Ditch Co. and Dr. Weaver, in relation to the purchase, by the latter, of the Poor Man’s Ditch. Should this be effected, as it is thought it will be, water is sure to be plentiful and cheap at a comparatively early day, and Columbia Hill, in common with a large extent of mining country surrounding it, will enter immediately upon a career of prospertty. i Hutchings’ Magazine for November continues an interesting series of illustrated articles on the great Yosemite Valley, whose sublime rocky cliffs and water falls that lose themselves in mist, are undeniably the world’s most wonderful scenery.

the veteran race horse Lexingten was exhibited on the grounds. A correspondent of the Union writes of him thus: “That venerable champion of the turf, sightless as Milten, has a hold upon the general affections which age and infirmities seem but to have strengthened; nor have age and infirmities blanted ‘his indomitable courage and proudambition. It issaid that as he approached the amphitheater, on the . day of the exhibition, held by four stalwart men, the tap of the drum—to him the only threw him into such a fever of excitement that some of his grooms were violently dashed against the adjacent trees, and he himself with difficulty restrained.
