The partisan fight, as waged’ by the editors and stumpers, has been. ‘waxing-hotter-and hotter, and, if kept up in‘the dame ratio of increasing earnestness, Heaveh only knows how hot it will be by the dawn of election day. What effect the news from Pennsylapirite of our California politicians, is a something we ean tell; « few days hence, better * than we can to-day, As itis, the Republi] a vety marked feeling of satisdential game was all their own. How the ~ Douglasites, Breckinridgers, and Bellites reA GRAND Minive PROJECT.—In the town of North Bloomfield, commonly, but improperly, called Humbug, an enterprising com‘pany'are about to undertake an immense work, which, when eompleted, will be source of almost exhaustless wealth. North Bloomfield lies in the. valley watered by Humbug Creek, which valley is divided from that of the South Yuba by a tall ridge, a mile wide at its base. This Humbug Valley -is rich in auriferous earth, but Humbug Creek does not afford sufficient fall to enable the miners to wash the-earth. ‘The bed of the South Yuba is much lower than that of Humbug Creek. The project about to be undertaken by the enterprising company, alluded to above, is thus *tersely explained in-that excellent paper the Hydraulic Press :. ** It 1s proposed to cross the dividing ridge between the town and the South Yuba, and __ gard these ‘wondrous tidings from the east, . ow down in the canon of that stream, com_ 4s & matter known only to themselves. Of ‘course, they will put as good a face upon the ' ‘matter as they ean, though the news to them can not-be otherwise than unpalatable.— Well, this ia.a world of. disappointments anddisasters, and politicians are as apt to meet with rubs and crosses as their less pretentious brethren of the human family. The question now iy—How will this‘Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana intelligence affect political feeling in California? For one, we can answer, that we have not the slightest idea. It is possible that the Douglasites, Breckinridgers, and Bellites had no hopes of defeating the Linconites in Peunsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana, and, therefore, the news will not take them by surprise; thus, the war will go forward, as stoutly ag ever, in California, : It is somewhat strange that we have no intolligence from Mississippi and Georgia, in which elections were held on the first Monday of October, eight days previously to the Pennsylvania election. The election in FloTidw'was held-on that day, and there is an tom from that state to the effect that Milton : i(Breckinridger).tiad received a majority of 1875 in sixteen counties. It is possible that telegraphic facilities are not so available in Goeorgin, Mississippi, and Florida, asin Penn' sylvania, Ohiv, and Indiana, and this circum“Which the southern news comes in. own and Minnesota voted on the same day with _ Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana—the 24 Puesday of October—and there is no news from there; but these are new states and hot blessed with many telegraphic lines. — There is every probability, however, that they-are in the hands of tie Republicans. "There yet two weeks between this moment and the election ; and, if + is not particularly a sin to wish time to fly, we could wish that those two Weeks were over. ‘The Presidential garmie,-tow being played, however amusing it thay be to the players, has nothing alluring in it to outsiders, like us; and the ~ sooner we tre permitted to ‘escape from its noise tind bitterness, the better we shall feel. Our faith in the intelligence and virtue of the American people, in the perpetuity of our glorious confederacy, and in the enduring vitality of our free institutions. is so strong that we dread no evil consequences, let the’elec‘tion result as it may. HARD ON A PrinTeR.—Tho last Columbia (Tuolumne county) Times comes to us.on. a half sheet, for which the editor apologizes, on the score that a seller of jewelry, whose wares the editor had pronounced bogus, came to the office, accompanied and aided b friends, and gre tie Thabling The abteclparty, it seems, knew that the editor » never carried » and that knowled made them bold. ‘Notwithstanding the aoe ig ho teeived, nd which seerented bie out a whole sheet, the editor expresses his determination to make an ample exposure of the bogus dealings of his enemy. Caarornia Exports.—Grain and flour z during the past week: The ship Trent, for Liverpool, carries 21,720 quarter sacks The Constance, for gual, carries 000 sacks o wheat; and 1,000 sacks oats.

Judah, in a communication to the Bee, _ road from Folsom to Lincoln, says : © So far from . Prospect of ite being di. dl « shantoaed . there is little t cut through the hill at a proper ascending grade, for nearly a mile, antil it reaches the subterranean lire of Hombug Creek, when a ‘shaft will be raisod a perpendicular hight of one hundred, and nine. feet; thes affording an outlet forthe tailings, which it is now found impossible to dispose of to advantage. A joint stock company is to be formed for carrying this grand project into effect. Books were opened a couple of weeks ago, and thirty sharce.of stock subscribed for on the instant. The time required for the completion of the work, would greatly depend upon the nature of the rock encountered in its progress. We have beard of no estimate being made as to its probable cost, although _we are told that seventeen men propose to undertake it for a specified per diem, which is to be allowed themin stock, on condition of being also clothed, fed, and all their necessary.tools and appliances furnished.” Hicuway Rossery.—The San Joaquin . Republican; of October 19th, relates the folluwing case of of a bold robbery: “ As Andrew Girard,who resides near the Red House, on the French Camp.road, wason his way home on Wednesday evening, on horseback, & person rode up and commenced a conversation: After riding side by side for a short distance, the new comer asked if he had any thoney ;—before he could. answer he waa knocked frém his horse by some hard instraHment, with which he was stunned, He lay fortwo hours in the road, and in the meantime his horse walked. te; the Red House, where ite arrival without « rider alarmed the inmates, and they started down the road in search of him. He was found near the rewidence of Dr. Harris, about two miles from town, and wus taken to his home where he soon recovered. His pockets had been turned inside out und rifled, but there was but a trifling suni in them.” te Mexican News.—The bark A. A. EL dridge, and the schooner Ewing, arrived yesterday, says the San Francisco Herald, of the 18th, from Mazatlan. The latter vessel brings Mexican papers to the 11th September. The Opinion de Sinaloa publishes an account of a great battle which hiad been fought between Miramon’s forces and the Liberals, under command of Ortega, Governor of Zacatecas. Upwards of 10,000 men were engaged in the conflict. Miramon was defeated, but escaped almost alone. Gens. Cruz, Herhandez and Pacheco were taken prisoners by the Liberals, who also obtained possession of the artillery, baggage, &c., of the enemy. Ortega was preparing to. march on the city of Mexico. The Opinion de Sinaloa was furnished to the Bulletin. Dornes in Sterna County.—On Saturday, 13th inst., two Indians shot two Chinamen—altogether in fun, as they alleged—and, while dragging the bodies of their victims towards Feather River, they were discovered by some white persons who shot them. Warrants have been issued against the whites for shooting the Indians. On the 15th inst., at the Winthrop House, a few miles from La Porte, a teamster was robbed of $45, and aman who lives in the neighborhood of $15 and ‘a gold ring.
