SHALL MAN UYE AGAIN.
Is this Ahortlife the lot of 'man
To live and dream and perish then
Or have'we not arssurance given
That man shall live again in heaven?
Though sceptics may God's word reject
And call the same of no effect,
To me this word wa■ nobler given
For 'there I see a.God in Heaven.
Tis there I heacihe shepherds say
Our Saviour in a manger lay ;
And there a will to Angels given
Aloud proclaim good news from heaven-
What tt glorious song they sing,
How sweet the news that Angels bringl
glad tidings of great joy is•gtven ',
To all on earth, and all in heaven.
Our Saviour yielded up his breath
And burst the bars ofi>hell and death,
And thus we have assurance given,
That manishall live again in beai.en.

The Gold llllnes In CaOra.
We make the following copious extract from col.
ileimaseh. dated Moutercy, Anima 111 h. de.erililng the
visit limit, to the gold motes of the Sacrnmento, in the
tuna of ay. Cul. ithision• left the gurrisuftat Alunterey wt
the l;th of-lane. Ile says: •
We reached. San Francisco' on the 20th, and
found that all, of nearly all, its male inhabitantsdial
gone to the mines. The town, which a„ few months
'before was - so busy and thriving, was thOn almost
deserted. On the evening of the 2111 i, the horses
of the escort were crossed to tlonsoleto a lau uch,
and on the following day we resumed the journey,
by way of Bodega and Sonoma, to Sotter's fort,
where we arrived on the morning of the 3d ofJnly.
Along the whole route, mills were lying idle, fi n ds
of wheat were open to cattle and horses, hous e s
vacant, and farms going to waste. At Sutter's there
was more life and business. Launches Were dis
charging their cargoes at the river, anti carts were
hauling goods to the where already were esta
blished several stores, a hotel, firs Captain Sutter
had only two mechanics in his employ, (a wagon
maker and a blacksmith) whom he was then Fray
ing ten Dollars a day. Merehants pay him a month
ly rent of .1 4 100 per room'; and whilst I was there,
a two-story house in the fort was rented as a hotel
1.. r !'...5i)0 a month.
At the urgent 'solicitation of many gentlemen, 1
ilelays.tl there to 'Participate in the first pnblie cele.
bratim of our national anniversary at that fort, hut
nu the 5.h resumed the journey, and proceeded
twenty-live miles up the American fork to a point
on it now known as the Lower Mines, or Mormon
I )i;ging6. The hill sides were thickly strewn with
canvass tents aid bush arbors;. a store was erected;
and several boarding shanties in operation. The
day tv'ax intense%y hot, yet about two hundred men
were at work in the full glare of the sun wa‘hing
for gold—some with tin pans, some with-close wo
en Indian baskets, but the greater part had. a rude
machine, known as the cradh. This is on rock
ers; six or eight *feet long, open at the foot, and at
its head has a coarse grate or sieve; the bottom is
rounded, with small elects nailgt across. Four
men are required to. work this machine ; one digs
the ground in the bank close by the stream: ano
ther carries it to the cradle and empties it on the
grate; a third gives-a violent rocking motion to the
Machine; whilst a fourth dashes on water from the
streatn itself.
'The sieVe keeps the coarse stones from enteringt
the cradle,' the current of water washes off the ear
thy matter, and the gravel is gradually carried .ont
at the foot of the machine, leaving the gold mix 4
with a fleavv fine black sand above the first eleetsi
The sand and gold mixed together are then drawn
nfl through auger holes into a pan below, are dried
in the sun, and afterwardS separated by blowing
oil the sand. A party of four men thus employed
at the lower mines averaged t!t100 a day. The In
dians, and those who have nothing but pans orwil
low ba , kets..gratlnally wash out the earth, and Se.
'ramie the gravel by hand, leaving not:ling but the
gold mixed with sand, which is separated in the
!trawler before des( tared. The gold in the lower
rumen is in tine bright scales, of .vithich 1 send se
veral specimens.
As we ascended the south branch of the Ameri
can fork, the country became more broken and
mountainous, and a: the saw mill, 25 miles above
the lower wasings, or 50 miles from Sutter's, the
hills rise to about a thousand feet above the level of
the Sacrainento plain. Here a species of pine 0c...
curs, which le Ito the discovery of the gold. Cart.
Satter feeling the great wain of lumber, contracted
in September last, with Mr. Marshall to build a
saw mill at that place. _ It was erected in the course
of the past winter and spring—a darn and race con.;
structed ; but when the water was let on.the wheel,
the tail-race was found to be too narrow to permit
the water to escape with sufficient rapidity. Mr.
Marshall, to save labor, let the water directly into
the race with a strong current, so as to wash it
iti
'der and deepen. He effected his purpose, and a
large bed et mud and gratel was carried to the foot
,of the race.
One day Mr. Marshall, as he was walking down
the rare to this dersiteof mod. observed some
glittering partielelll at its apper.ralge; lie gathered a
few, examined them, and became saiipqqa.of their
value. He then went to the fort, told Capt. Sutter
of his discovery, and they agreed to' keep, it secret
until a Certain of &Atter
11-, however, grit out, and spreail like magic.- lter,
markabler soecess attended. the labors of the first
explorers, and in a few weeks hundreds of - titbit
were drawn thither.' * *' 1195 'gad

, •
ployed, whom tlicy . pay 4 in merchandise.; They
were getting gold of wiiharacter similar to that loan .1
in the main fork. * * • * J * :"`*“
_ .
From this point we proceedfd l 'up the - stMarn
about eight . miles, where wo found a - weal many
people and lodiaus , -;-sonte en Q gagal in : the , bia&tf
the stream, and others in the-entail ' , rills:that pin
into - it These latter arer : exCetialrgly ,and 1 1 Wo
ounces were considered ari ordinary
_yield for a
days work.
.A small gutter, not more,than a-htm
dred yards long by four-feet wide,'and tvicrorthree
feet 4lcep, was pointed out - to me as the one where
two men—William Daly and Perry, AdeCoou, hat!,
a short time before, obtained Sltyoooworth of gold.
Capt. Weber informed me that he ktiew that th6e
two men had employed fohr vtliite men end.about
a hundred and; Amt, at. the end of .one
week=s work they paid off their partyount hail left
$lO,OOO worth of this gold.'- Ano , .her small ravine
was shown me, from u c'la . liad tern takca up,
wards of Sli,ooo Worth Lbindteds
milar savines, to all Appearances, are as ,yet
touched.
Mr. Neligh, an agent ofp:Commodore. Stockton,
bad been at Alma: about thheii hocks in the neigh
borhood, and showed me ia bags and - bottles Deer
:52,000 worth of gold; and Mr. LyinatY, ' a gentle
man or education tind worthy;of,every credit, said
he had been engaged with four others, with a ma
chine, on the American -fork, just below Sutter's
mill; that they "worked e ig ht days, and that his
share was at the rate of *5O a day-..
The country on either side of Weber's creek is
mut+ brokost up by-hills, and is intersected iu 'eve
ry i irection by`-small streams or ravines, witkat
contain more or less gt hl. Those that have been
worked are barely scratched ; and although thou
sands of ounces have been carried- away, I do rot
consider that a serfons impression has been naqe
upon the whole. Every day was developing ianw
and richer deppsits; and the only impression scent
ed to be, that the metal would' be found in anch
abundance as seriously to depreciate in value.
On the Bth of Julyl returned to, the loWer mines,
and on the following day to Sn tees, whereon the
tOth I was making preparations for a visit tolhe
Feather, Yubalyand 'Bear tivers,'whetil ieceited
a letter from Commodore A. E.. Long, United Slates
navy, who had just arrived at. San. Francisco from
Mazatlan, with a crew for the sloop-of-war Warren,
with orders to take that vessel to the squadron at
la Paz. Capt. I;pngt , irote nr that the Itexican
Congress had adjourned unhoet ratifying theriess
ty of pence.; that he had lenerefor me fronr - COM.
mnd'ore Jones, and that his orders were to sail with
the Warren on or before the
.201 of J 4 .1 Iq con
sequence of these, I determined m return to Man
tereyi and accordingly mrived-here con titer 17th.tif
July. Refine leaving Sutter's, I - salisfred
that gold existed in the bed of the Feather rirer s in
it:ml'ooh mieDear, and in many of the *mail
streamit-that he between-the latter and the Ameri
can fork - 3 also, that it hair:Mee fonnd •in the Co
sumnies to the' south of the American fork. lit - eah
of these streams the golcl is found in small scales,
whereas in the intervening mountains it occurs in
coarserintnps. •
Mr. Sinclair.. whose rancho is three miles above
Suttees ou the north side,of the American, employs
about Zs) Indians on the north fork, not tar from inr
junction with the main stream. He had been en
gaged about ftve . weeks when !ail , him, and rip
to that time his Indians had used simply closely
woven %%Wow baskets. His nett proceeds {which
I saw) were about $16,000 worth of go!d. He
showed me the proceeds of his last week's work
—fourteen pounds avoirdupois cd. clean washed
gold
The prineipalstore at Batter's Fort, that of Bran

become consumers-of the luxuries of life. .
The most moderate estimate I could obtairt . rum
men acquainted.withtlia-auhject, was, that upwards
of 4000 men were working iii thi gold ,disiciet, of
whom more than, one half were Indians ; ,anti that
from 530,000 Act $50,00a Arovifs of gold, it no More ;
