the subject, it appears that the mines of Al

per rent , of mercury; and' at Id ria,'orea con
taining only one per cent. are worked, al
though they are found in all proportions
from that low 'pi , centage up to 50.., The
importance of this discovery in California is
greatly , enhanced by the, pearne.ss of a con

As to Pig platinum, it appears not to be
worili• seeking, act ding to the following
statement of the assayer: '
This 'meth] ii evidently present, and may
be seen with the naked eye amongst the
spangles of gold, and in a similar form. A
'small quantity, (about four grains in weight,
was forwhrded NIA the War Department,
and witslonnd'to be pf the specific gravity
'eighteen; being, of course, debased some
what b'y the intimate mixture of mineral mat
-
ter not iemovable by washing. We have
not yet determined accurately what'amount
of this , metal appears with the gold deposi
ted for coinage. Owing partly to its known i
intractability in the furnace, and partly to
its crude condition, it is scarcely at all fused
with the gold, but is to be seen,fter the
melting in its original forth, dotted uPon - A.. - es.
'surface of the gold bars. What does enter
into combination with the gold is scarcely
'appreciable, and does not disturb the assay, I
or deteriotate the metal' for coining or mane-'
facturing purposes ; and this was a material
point of inquiry. 'faking it altogether,
whether fused or not, our present impres
sion is, that it exists in but small relative
quantity, arid 1411 not be worth seeking af
ter for its own sake.
.
The only alloy of this gold is silver, of
which we find on the average, 104 parts in
a thousand. The gold yielding 894; there
is a remainder of two thousandths, which is
nearly or entiely copper. After giving the
results of theirexperirnents on the specimens
of gold sand sent, the assayers ingeniously
any : If it were the true state •of the case
that there was nothing to do but to shovel
up an auriferous. sand, which, by proper .
treatment would yield one thousand to twelve
hundred _ dollars a bushel, this would, in
deed, be as startling a disclosure as any
which has enotnated from California soil.
But what we had reason to believe, in refer-
ence to this matter, is confirmed by an offi-!
trial letter of Capt. Folsom, published in the
Washington Union, of the '23d instant, from
rt , ltielt it appears that the obtaining of this
rich sand is almost the last of concentric op-
emtions, and that our experiments upon it,
though 'curious and of value as far as they
go, alii*d no definite indidication of the rich
ness of the mining ground, since it does not
appear how many pedals of bushels of the
origitlal earth must have been wrought upon
to obtain a given.quantity of this black sand.
Moreover,.it is well known that no mode of
treatment, however skilful and scientific,
has so far enabled gold miners to make a
near, approach, in large operation, to the
result obtained by a delicate assay—that is,
not without its costink tnere than it would
be worth.
There are so many conditions to be weighed,
such a difference
,of composition in lay-
ers or masses of the sand, even at short in
tervals of space, and such a choice in the
ndoptation of extracting protesses; that no
opinion. Should be ventured from slight inn
terials as to the proper productiveness or
probable permanency of the mining interest
in. thatiremarkable region. '
Gen. Quitman's Servant.
Henry Nicht:Jlß, by the name and style of
“Harry, 'has been the faithful and contiding
Nliody-servant of the General for the last eigh.
teen years. Through exultation and de.
invasion, victory and defeat, sunshine and
storm, Harry. has ever , been present, and
'faithful to execute the mandate of his master.
He has made the tour of the United States
and the Canadas, and when the infant Re
public of Texas was struggling for a place
among the stars and stripes, he nu/lowan
ied his, master, who was then Calif: Quit•
wan, through these perilous scenes, and
while walking over the battle groqnd of San
Jacinto, looking very sad at the sight of the
numerous dead, his master asked bun what
he was thinking about. He replied that he
was thinking what fools these yellow men
vere for fighting white folks. But it was
esetved for Harry to illustrate the annals
.t his race at the storming of Monterey, for
will be recollected that Gen. Quitman had
charge of the brave 'Mississippians and
. nnesseans, and was ,in the hottest and l
kest of the fight, having several horses l
.t from under him, the plac'es of which' .
ere iminediately supplied by Harry,:al
hough he had to make his way to his mas
ter through grape and canister. • But to
crown the enchantment of the scenev.when
thq gallant Wm. o.'Butler fell wounded,
Thirry immediately 'rushed to his rescue and
cairied,ltim off the field.
While. ,conveying , the Generil flyim the
field c he - inquired after his master., Gene
ral guider told hint he "feared • he. would
never see him alive, as he was in the most
tlangerous position when he sayrhim last."
Harry replied, with that deep seated feeling
of the faithful servant, "Don't you believe
that, General, master was not born to be kil
led by them mulatto rascals I" When Gen.
Quitman was ordered to the conquering col
umn of Scott, he carried Harry with him,
Who was side by side with him at the born
' bardment and storming of Chapultepec on
the 13th and 14th, and the deadly conflict
of the Garita de Helen, and} finally, his tri

'This paper will be ntirely different from

It is designed to be, in eve _ respect, a popu ,

ass of readers. It will be edited by George
ippard, whose Legends of the Revolution
ave - become household words throughout

omium from Publishers; the best Magazine

lodey, holds this language in its January
umber: "This author has struck out an en
irely new path, and stands isolated on a.
mint inaccessible to the maseof writers of
he present day. He is unquestionably the
ost 'popular writer, of the day, and his
looks are sold, edition after edition, thou.:
and after thousand, while those of others
.ccumulate, like useless lumber, on the

ign to make this, in every respect, the best
aper published in the United States. We
