SHER LOCK'S DIGGINS, Mariposa, Sept. 27.
This Mr. Editor is unquestionably the
place for 'big chunks,' but let me instruct
iron concerning these .diggings. They
were discovered two or three months
since by a man named Sherlock who with
a company of seventy Mexicans, worked
these deposits on shares. The work va
ries with us, as well as elsewhere. In
eight days three men took out 57 pounds
of pure gold. . And last week two men
took out in two days 29 pounds from a
spotneas my camp. Sherlock has gone
into the mountain's, no one knows where,
and wo have elected a new Alcade, who,
the day of his installation into office, is
sued an order for all Mexicans to decamp
which they did forthwith. We' all in
tend to winter here, as we can easily
make comfortable quarters. This place
RI distant 11 miles from Fretriont's dis
eavery, and is much the richest of the
two deposits. Many large pieces have
been recently found here averaging from
one to eight pounds, pure gold. The
li
:nest pieces usually are worth about fif
ty cents, so you perceive this is the re
giori of 'big
THE PL - AcEa.:—The Placer Times of
Oct. 1 says:—" We have seen several
from the mines during the past week—
some of them with, a bag full of 'dust,'
while others were not troubled with any
thing heavy. The following letter from
n friend will give our readers a common
sense view of mining and miners in all
sections of the Placer, although written
on the Middle Fork and dated,
SPANISH BAR, Oct. 19, 1849.
There has been and always will be a
great disparity in the products of labor
in the mines of this country and this dis
parity is often a cause of much trouble
and uneasiness on the part of miners and
more particularly new beginners. For
instance a man, comes here and locates
himself; he commences operations;
af
ter remaining here some two or three
weeks he becomes initiated and makes
his fil2 or an ounce a day. But just at
this juncture of affairs a report comes
fiom the North or South Forks, or some
where else, that people are taking out
from 3 to 6 ounces a day on some other
stream.
This causes at once a dissatisfaition
on the part of the newcomer (old miners
are not so easily led away,) he makes a
comparison and says to himself, "I am
not going to work for an ounce a day
when other people are making three or
four ounces"—and he immediately packs
up and is off for the better diggings. He
arrives at his place of destination, and
finds, to 'his astonishment, that he is
worse off than when he started—besides
losing a week's time. Judging from
what I can learn I think there is little
difference as to the richness of the three
Forks, the North, Middle and South.—
They all have proved prolific.
I think the North (being the nearest
to the city) has been the most worked.
Since I have been on the, Spanish. Bar
(now about three months) there liaS been
on immense amount of money taken out.
Damming parties have done the best by
going into the bed of the stream, yet
many dams have proved failures; some
companies have taken out over a hun
dred dollars a day for several weeks, but
these things arc not common. Miners
here are thinking about going into win
ter quarters; the nights are quite chilly
and every one is anxious to get break
fast for the sake of being in the vicinity
of the fire.
SAN FRANCISCO, NOV. 1. 1849
Since my last, wo have had a touch of
the "rainy season." On the 9th ult., a
fog which had hung over the city for sev
eral days, determined itself into quite a
shower of rain.
On the 10th, a violent S. E. wind set
in and torrents of rain fell, which dam
aged a larg3 amount of goods, that were
stored in the open air, and not taken
care of by the owners, who supposed the
shower of the day previous a natural re
sult of the foggy weather. At a small
estimate, $lOO,OOO will not cover the
damage. Some sickness was occasioned
by the shower to persons lodging in
tents, at Happy Valley.
Rents in securely sheltered buildings
advanced 100 per cent. Carpenters'
wages rose immediately from $l2 to $l7
per day and about one hundred buildings
have been put up since.
The propeller McKim arrived here on
the 3d ult. She has been purchased by
Simmons„ Hutchinson & Co. and now
runs to Sacramento city twice a week.
They paid $40,000 for hor I understand.
The steamer Mint-- a small iron
steamboat which was landed and put
into running order in three weeks—has
already made several successful trips to
Sacremento city. A stern wheel steam
boat was launched the other day. We
shall soon have plenty of steam convey
ances to the mines.
Confession of a Robber.
The notorious Thos. C. Cunningham
was tried in Boston, a few days since,
for robbing a young man in that city, on
the 24th of September last and after his
conviction made the following remarks
and confession : •
It has long been my earnest and sin
cere object to pursue an honest liveli
hood, but I have been .followed up and
unjustly used by the authorities. I tri
ed to get an honest living in Now York.
I cut loose from my old associates, and
commenced a little business, but the
police, under the direction of the Chief,
kept a constant watch upon my house.
Next, that house was taken down and I
had to remove to another, but the police
followed and watched me still. I asked
them why they pursued me so, and they
said they were acting under the orders
of the Chief, and we made an appoint
ment to meet him together. But I went
alone before the time set, and endeavor
ed to satisfy the Chief that I was endeav
oring to get an honest livelihood. He
wouldn't.believe Me, and I then saw the
Mayor, and when he' heared my • story,
he said he believed I meant to change
my course of life. Then I met the po
lice who were watching me, and went
with me to the Chief. After some more
talk he had me locked up on some old
charges that I had given bail for, but
couldn't get a trial. I was kept in prison
and the business I had commenced was
broken up, and all the means I had were
exhausted in feeing counsel for these
old matters. Then I came to Boston,
intending still to pursue an honest live
lihood, but couldn't get such husiness as
suited me, and here I am. I don't blame
any body here. The officer was mista
ken in saying that when he took the
gold pieces from me, I told him I had
no more money about me. But that
makes no great difference, since, the
money was found upon me. lam fully
satisfied that there is no peace for the
wicked, and the way of the transgressor
is hard. It has been fully exemplified
in my person, and in my situation here
at this moment. lam fully resolved to
endeavor to pursue on honest course of
life, if ever I should be restored to lib
erty. I have a family, a wife and child
—and have good friends and relations
in New York. [Hero the prisoner hal
ted in his remarks, and wept. Having
subdued his emotion, he proceeded.] I
know the difficulties I shall have to meet.
They have stood in my way before.—
After a man has been taken up and ex
posed his character is gone. If he gets
work as a mechanic, or at any honest
business, his previous misfortune, being
known to many persons, soon reaches
his employer, and he loses his situation.
This is the difficulty in the way of a
'man like me in' returning to honest em
ployment. But I ' ern determined to
make an effort, if! should again have an
opportunity, and I can say nothing more
now than to throw myself upon the clem
ency of the court. The prisoner was
now efentended'to four years in the State
prison. The prisoner's wife was pies
ent, and wept bitterly when the sen
tence was announced. It is supposed
that she did not know his real charac
ter when she married him.
