FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 13th.
QuartTz.-—Since the advent of the miner
in these mountains the quartz prospects
were never-so substantial and. brilliant_as at
this moment. _ Notwithstanding the majority
of our-best prospectors have been allured-to
other localities by the glowing accounts of
mineral wealth, the few who have remained
true and constant to the old spot, have been
rewarded bezund precedent for their labor.
New ledges have been opened in every direction, and old ones, by -virtue of more
scientific management, have been made. to
yield beyond expectation. The noise of
stampers is getting to be familiar, and new
mills are in process of construction. All the
A new mill ia going up on Sacramento street,
another on Gold Flat and the old Oriental
Mill, we learn, is about to be put in order
and set at work. ©The mills now running in
‘this vicinity number six. The nuinber of
new ledges naw opening will-employ-a' good
Jy number of anen during the summer, avd
call for the erection of tore milla before the
season closes. The quartz appears to be
mostly of the paying kind, some of it being of
the richest character. On the whole we are
of the opinioa that Nevada bas but little to
complain of in view of the quartz interest
_ phat israpidly developing hereabout.

lawyers of the country were present. The
decision in favor of the Government in the
New Almadan Mines involves property estiwated at $60,000,000.
Not altogether unexpected, an important
decision in the prize cases. was announced by
Judge Greer, ruling every point in favor of
the Government, and condemning all the vessels, which legalizes the blockade.
_ Justice Wilson delivered a dissenting opinion that the civil wardid not exist until after
the thirteenth of July 1861 and therefore the
President has no power to set on foot a
blockade, under the law of nations, and that

and the vessels and cargoes restored #This

Bevadn Daily Transcript.
Our SENATORIAL ELECTION—HOW
THEY FELT AT WasHincron.—Castine,”
'the ‘very able correspondent of the Union,
Arrivaisat National Exchange
Broad Street, Nevada.
at Washiagton, writes about our Senatorial: GEO. RB. LANCASTER, PROPRIETOR
<8 i
election as fullows :
The nomination. of Conness-was received
herd with considerable surprise. and—if I
must say it—with no satisfaction by the numerous Californians here, and by the friends
of California in both houses of Congress.—
The eleetion of Sargent had been looked upon a8 a foregone conclusion, and he had been
congratulated in advance by. a majority of
the Senators aud Representatives, who were
rejoiced-at_the prospect_of the next-Congress
retaining the eminent services and abilities
of the_popular representative -feom Cal. fornia. The unexpected, change in. the aspect
of affairs was a dumper here, of course; but
those who know Conness have reason to hope
that he will pot be another example of the
unprofitableness of sending to Congress men
who are expected to work ‘harmoniously
with those whom they have fought in politics.
through all the past. With a few more Mc
Dougalls and Nesmiths we should have no
hope whatever of restoring harmony to the
distracted country through the action of Con
gress. It isto be regretted that the unhappy
prolongation of the Senatorial contest in
Crttornia tis resulted-in-the-withdrawat
from publie life of such faithful Representatives of California as Sargent and Phelps, as
is now the case. They both go home with
the resolution to leave politica altogether,
and, of course, will not come .to Congress’
agnin in-any capacity. :
We . have received private letters from
friends at Washington and other parts of the
Atlantic States, all to the saine effect. The
Republicans of Oregon and Cahtorniw~ have
elected four Democrats to the United States
Senate, and so far as these have been ena~
bled to show their hands in the Se"ate,. all
of them on all debatable questions, vote with
the opposition. Of such Umon men as Me
Dougal, Neamith and Harding, the country
has had enough, and to try the hazardous
experiment of electing 4 traditional ‘enemy;
one who accused the Republicans of bringing on the war and then of being cowards
and not enlisting, leaving the battles of the
country to be fought by Democrats; one who
deprecated the assiatance the Republieons gave to the. lamented Broderick
leat the taint of Bluek Republicanism should
Padhere to his Democracy, for the fourth
Dewoeratic Senator from the coast, destroys
all confidence at Washington in California
-politics and depreciates the character of the
State. There is no mistaking the sentiment
of Administration men in the East. They
had seen the indefatigable exertions of Saryent and know hia worth. The Union men
at. Washington. prefered Sargent or Phelna
to Connesa. The State of California entertuined-the same preferences. There cannot
bea rational doubt that Conness would have
been defeated by a large mujority had his
election depended upon the people, and,
therefore; those men who elected him misrepresented their constituents. But what
shall we aay of such men as the Sacramento
delegation and the treacherous Harriman of
Placer? What man in the whole State la.
bored so hard for Sacramento aud the Pacific Railroad as Sargent? And yet, with the
exception of Warwick, not one of the Saeramento delegation was true to the man who
had done and could do the must for their city. The Sacramento Union, always tréacherous except to its interest displayed the
blackest ingratitude towards the man who
had been their friend ‘at Washnigten in many
ways. a
The deed is done. The nation and the
State are disappointed. A man has been
sent to the United States Senate who had no
claim upon the State or the vast majority of
the party for the position, while men who
had have been thrust aside to private life.—
Such are the rewards of politics; such the
gratitude of men for favors received.
MINT IN NEVADA.—The Washoe Times
says: Our Territory iw to” havea mint— to
be located at Carson City—and for this Congressional-benefaction we are much indebted
fo Mr. Sargent, the talented and energetic’
niember from Calitornia. He originated the
prvjeet inthe House of Representatives, and
pressed it, with all hia abilities and influence,
to w successful conclusion.
“Two returned Californians, named Met
Donald and Fitzpatrick, have recently discovered new gold diggings on a branch of
Chagres river, which pay on an average,
twenty cents to the pan. They have four
men employed in developing these aurifere
ous resources of the Isthmugof Darien.
Ricu DicGines.—It is reported by letter
that the miners at the erossing of Salmon,
six miles from Snake river, have made from
$5 to $20 per day all winter. About 600
tmen-were, mining on Salmon river bar, from
the mouth to Slate Crock.
