"THE SITUATION."
National affairs have got into a "situation"
again. Tht country baa had periodical attacks
of "the altuatlon" and nobody seems lo know ex
actly when it will be out of danger of a relapse.
The lituatlon, however, li thli time of a milder
type than usual, and a careful diagnosis fail) to
detect any particularly dangerous symptoms o
far ai the military corpus it concerned. The ar
my of the Potomac, upon which we have been va-
riouily accuitomed to look ai the head or heart of
the laid corpua, is at preient in a quiescent state,
but that signifies nothing alarming o long aa
there li. no rebel foe with present ability and at.
dacity enough to d'uturb ita rejuvenating alum
ben. In good time it will have a terrible awa
kening for the rebel hordoa against which it ao
gallantly daahed Itself a month and a half tinea.
The army of Vickaburg having cut oft the lett
er head of the rebellion, ia preparing for a dan
gerout dath down among iti ribt and bowelt, sit
uaU In Alabama. When it movet again, there
will be inch rumbling! among the latter named
portion! of the rebellious anatomy, and tuch
crunching of dry boost aa will aatoniah overy in
dividual member ,of the Contliieverary. Mean
time, we can afford to wait patiently and feast
upon the protpeot of the quakingi and dismay
that ib.il! soon aa certainly aieae upon rcheldom
at that the aun thinet to-day.
At no day aince the fatal Dull Hun, havo pntri -ot
felt to tecure aa now in the ability of the loyal
North to conquer the rebellious South. The lato
victories have done vaitly more than to capture
o many prisoners, to many gum, and drive the
rebel forces from to many chosen fields (if battle
thoy have carried into loyal hearts the convic
tion that tucceti mail crown our effurtt to pre
serve the Union, and into rebel heartt a deeper
conviction that though wicked treason may fur a
while deritively wag ita gorgon bead, yet that In
the end there shall be whetted for It a tword at
. sharp and terrible at that of the angel of Death.
With such convictions deep tented in the minds
of both sections, can there bo anything fur the
North but bright anticipations of a quick end of
the war and a glorious restoration of union, peace
and prosperity, and for the rebels anything but
gloom, evil foreboding! aud deapair f With such
mental conditions North and South, putting out of
account the physical effects of Ihe late battlet.can
the rebels hold out much longer In their contu
macious treason f
What hope, entertained in the beginning, have
they left f The idea of counter revolutions in the
North for their benefit, was lung since exploded.
The vaunt it might have been a belief that one
chiv waa equal to five mudtillt, bat proved but
the airy dream of inflated self-consequence. The
proiulee they made themtelvea that loyal States
should be tbe battle ground of the rebellion and
should bear ita m'Ott terrible effects, waa but a lie
which hat gone home to roost, forever. The cher
ished bojie that furelgn powera would quickly in
terrene to stay tbe avenging and conquering arm
of the national government that a foul conspire
Of might live and attert nationality, hat burned
down to Its very socket and left only ashet. The
boatt that the tplndlct of cotton mills at the
North would turn into to many twordt and tpeart
to prod down the war that left them idle, has end
ed in finding them almost independent of "King
Cotton" and all bis friends. Thoy spin wool and
grow rich, while the rebel buaat goes on empty
air to deaf eara. Cotton Is dethroned. For the
fata of that rebel frothing about "dying in the
last ditch," consult the recent transactions at
Vickaburg and Port Hudson, and "when found,
make a note of it." Forty thousand men of the
"last ditch" style juat aa willing to live on the
terms of "unconditional surrender," as any forty

Kd. Statesman A very lamentable shooting
affair occurred here on tho evening of the Dili
Inst, in which Iho ex-deputy sheriff, MoDsnlel.was
mortally wounded by Mr. Van Ticlinell. The dif
ficulty originated in regard to some remarks made
concerning the escape uf Horry Way. The case
it nnw under examination before Justice Wright,
and in due course of time the public will know
the pnrlieulart of this melancholy tragedy. Mc

mourn his untimely end.
Another lode of gold and silver bearing quartz
was recently struck a few miles from this plnc.it
which is said to be rich, It hat been traced and
taken up fur seven miles.

The preparations fur tlio Stale Fair arc rap-
idly approaching completion. There will bo
a vast improvement upon any former year, in
the wnr of accommodations for both visrure
and exhibitors. The I'nvilion is being enlarge
by tho erection of a building yOxlDII leet
norosi the south end of the old one which is
30x100 feet. The form of the Pavilion Is now
that of a T, Willi tho capacity of 5,4K) siiiare
feet of floor. The mad of entrance has been
out out wider and nuide smooth. An avenue
hat been cut from Ihe entrance gate to the
Pavilion, thenco eastward to near the middle
of the enclosure on that line, thence to Ihe
north boundary fendo where another gate hat
been put iu. All visitors will lio required to
enter at the old gate and depart at the new one
to avoid confusions and accidents. The under
brush in Ihe grove at Iho north end of tho en
closure is being olenred away fur easy paseugo to
parti of the grounds. Along the north side
and from the northeast corner to the old shells,
will be a continuous line of new sheds for cat
tle, horses, &o. A new stand fur judges and
referees will bt erected at the starting place
on Ihe race track. To prevent injury to tlio
grove of young trees within the enclosure, the
niauageri have niiido ample arrangements for
enmping outside, on the west tido near the en
trance gate. The camp ground will be sur
rounded by fence.
It is confidently expected that a general in
terest will be taken by all clnenes of citizens
for whose benefit such fairs aro held. They
will be reoreaut to their own advantage if they
do not seitn upon the opportunity lime aflorded
by the State Society. There should be a gen

be placed on exhibition.

Carriboo, June 20, 1 BOH.
Mil. Editoh i Here wn am in this gloriona
Carriboo this modern Kl Dorado this land
of gold ; measured by the pun and weighed by
the pound. And here, at tlio commencement
let me explain, lest I be accused of exaggera
tion. 1 here aro several claims on Williams
creek that aro paying by tho pound, and not
ounces, per day. The "Wel'dnnen't claim"
has yielded liny pounds per day. !' Him
Curry's claim" produced fifty-two pounds and
as high as one hundred and two pounds, twen
ty ounces per day. Each partner in that claim
it said to have realized over his own weight in
gold aboc,'. 400 pounds each. It is alleged
they took out at one time two pounds of gold
on the point of a shovel on the bed rock. The
"Cannon's claim" is said to bo equally rich,
and many more in tho immediate vicinity have
within a few days past struck tho lead and arc
unving and are paying as high as two und
three hundred ounces per day. Hut, you must
remember that these exceedingly rich claims
are "few in number," but not "fur between."
They wero discovered Inst winter, or rather,
the lead was struck about the month of Janu
ary. Prior to this lime, the mining had been
confined to that portion of Williams creek, sit
uated above the town of Kiclifield, but the
richest claims are found about one or two miles
below. These, bif itrikei nre what turn men
crazy, Every one thinks himself to bo the
lucky one, and hundreds of men madly rindi
into the milling speculation until a few months'
experience fully satisfies him, that fur every one
dollar received nut of tho ground, it costs two
to get it. Tlio diggings are deep and mining
operations very expensive. It costs a Inrtuno
ill most cases to secure flue. One com pony I
could name, took out sixty thousand dollars,
hut their expenses were forty thousand. The
shortness of the season, severity of the climate,
expenses of luhur, high price of provisions, the
heavy outlay in sinking shafts and running
drifts in tunneling, and the constant effort re
quired to successfully contend against water
and quicksand anil a Ihoiieanil other items uf
expense wh.ch the inexperienced miner never
thought of, will sometimes linek down the stout
est heart mid empty the richest pocket. Many
claims that were in high repute iu Victoria and
San Frnuciruo last winter, nn interest in which
told for thousands, prospectively, have been
worked all Ibis season anil aro loom) to bo ut
terly worthless and nre now nhaiidotied, the
parties having loft in disgust. Sumo forty
companies have discontinued operations in con
scqncuc or a failure of the mines to pay Ihe
minimum and maximum of these companies
being five and ten, I will name a few of these
companies ; oilier I cannot remember : The
Victoria Tunnel j Kay State Tunnel s Califor
nia Tunnel j Jelf. Davis Tunnel j United Co,
(II persons ami 1100 feet of ground), Snow it
Heavy Company, Columbia Company, Downey
& Company. Gulden Tunnel.
I will now give you tho prices of provisions

PICIAI. DISI'HTCH TO THK STtTtSX1'.
New York, August 10-10 A.M.
Herald't special dispatch says, last week one
of our scouts crossed Ihe river at tnilea states
Kurd, and took limner with some rcliels on tlie
fllinncelhirsville battle ground. A large gang
of negroes was engaged getting out timber for
the U'-'tilenses. nepons are iu circuinuuu
among rebels that United States and Hunks'
Fords were to be bridged, so ns to enable Leo
to make rapid attack ou Dumfries and Fairfax,
thereby cutting ulf our communication with
Washington, and Inrcing ns to nttncK mm.
Whether such a movement is still in contem
plation Iiy the enemy is not certain, but it is
generally believed iiy military critics that Lee
will avail himself of the opportunity now of
fcred bv the decimated condition of our nrmy
to mnko a desperate effort for the destruction of
the Army of the fotoinnc. It is not nt nil nn
prububle that rebels will nttack us, and we may
have another struggle at Manassas nnd Dull
Hun. A.Tairs at CentreVille remain iiuiet.
Gen. King, who has been searching energeti
cally for Mosely, at, length has succeeded in
driving him beyond lilue liiilge. That noto
rious guerrilla chief is now in the Shenandoah
Volley, where he lias been joined by White's
gang. Our cavalry is close upon them, nnd
unless unusual good fortune attend them they
cannot evade as.
The Tribune'! Washington specials say it is
understood that important dispatches showing
the complicity of the Governor of New York
nd others Willi the rioters, has been received
y the authorities there. It is thought Govern
or Seymour will not persist in following the I
mistaken course into whicli be was ueguiled ny
the Woods nnd their party.
LAOHHIP DEN8MOKB, (
Off Charleston, Aug. 16. $
Since Monday events here have been rather
monotonous. We have been exchanging shots
and shell night and day with little damage to
either party. The object ol tlie enemy was to
retard Gen. Gilmnre siege works, nut lliey
were all perfected several days ago. The in
tention to open on the loUh was nbnndoned on
account of some difficulty ns to quality of nrmy
ammunition and owing to the serious indispo
sition of Gen. Gilmnre. He is, however, much
better, and the opening of the heavy siege
works will commence, to-morrow morning nt
daylight. The shore butteries in getting the
range of guns yesterdny nnd day before, knock
ed three holes in the walls of Sumter'. A gen
eral imprest-ion prevails that tlio rebels are
evacuating Sumter and will blow it up as soon
as assault commences. Out of nearly thirty
guns on the parapets ten days ago, but six now
remain, and most ot those iu casemates had
previously disappeared. Tho rebels have
reeled eurthworKs a mile long on jnuics
Island, though but few guns have been mount
ed nnd it is supposed that the destination of
Sumter's gnus is these works. Our picket
boats around Snmter report great ncttvtty every
night with schooners, steamers, do. The
weather is fine with very calm sea most favor
able for operations. The sun is hot but we
have a good sea breeze and occasionally thun
der storms. Every thing is now ready ou land
and sea. All nre looking forward lo the work
of to morrow as certain of success, reinforce
ments continue to arrive daily and there is quite
a large nrmy now on the island. Un Weiluei
day night Ihe rebels fired nn our works with
grape und canister, on information received
of two sutlers who deserted to the enemy. We
lost two K lied ami two wounded, i he moni
tors went up in the night nnd opened ou Wag
ner. Tho rebel guns were soon silrticed. The
indications nre that the rcliels wili depend prin
cipully on their obstructions nnd interior lines of
delense. In the attacks to-morrow the iron
clnds will engage Wagner and keep her silent
whilst monitors and shoro batteries engage
Sumter; the wooden fleet and mortar schoon
ers will engage Moultrie. It will be n grand af
fair. Tho rebel works on James Island indi
cate an attempt to drive Gilmnre off the island
or so annoy bun aa to interfere with ins siege
ot auinter.

New York, Aug. 1!).
In view of draft which commenced to day,
Gov. Seymour yesterday issued procluniftinn
counseling obedience to the laws. He says t
while it would have been a wise nnd humane
policy to have procured a judicial decision with
regard to conscription Act, yet failing to do
tins, in no degree iiisnnes any violent oppnsi
tinn to it. An Act of Congress, until it is set
aside, must he obeyed. He warns people that
me only opposition thai can ho allowed is au
appeal to the courts. In the event of riotous
proceedings, vigorous and effective measures to
suppress them will lie used.
Vai.landioiiam'h Method ok Attainino
Peace. In his recent address to the people of
Ohio, Vnlluiidigliaiii gave some of his expcri
encet and observations while in Dixie, nnd set
out briefly, Ihe manner iu which pence might
he acquired. After assuring the people thut
in his sojourmiigs and travelings, lie saw nut
one man, woman ur child who was not deter
mined to use tho last means in their reach to
achieve independence, he advises ns the first
step that all our armies shall be withdrawn as
preliminary to treating with the rebels. This,
Vullundighuiii advises after becoming satisfied
that tho rebels are a unit in tile resolve to be
separated from the North at nil hazards and lo
the must desperate extremity. What dues Vnl-
luinligliain's proposition amount to I Simply
to this: that all that has been gained by Hie
wnr shall he surrendered to a people who are
determined in all weal and woe to sever their
connection with ns. To adopt his plan and
withdraw our armies, would be In place them
nt onco and peacefully in possession of all
they could hope to gain by tho most successful
chances of war. They would resume armed
occupation of every border State and every
strong post winch we have nnw wrested from
them. Those places whicli we now govern
without difficulty wonld. iu three weeks, bri.tle
with rebel bayonets, and be again ground uu
der the iron heel of Jelf Davit' despotism.
What then? Having been conceded iu fact
nearly all that they have at any time demand
ed would they trent on any other basis than to
keep what they had thus obtained and to be
"let alone t" Vallandighain pretends to think
they would at once become loving lambs iu the
Union fold ; hut what reason oun be given for
such belief I Have they nt anytime express
ed, directly or indirectly, a willingness to be
come agaiu peaceful members of the Union I
Havo they not, through the press, from the fo
rum, the pulpit aud through the legitla.ive and
executive head of the Confederacy, in private,
iu pnblio and before all the world, declared
that, npon no term short of independence
would they treat with tho United States gov
ernment I Will they stultify that declaration
at tha moment of being in practical possession
of the objeot for which they began, and have
prosecuted the rebellion ? No saue man be
lieves it Vallandighain doe not.
He, therefore, holding the belief that the
Southern people are more a unit than ever be
fore, in the purpose of the rebellion, aud hetttr
able than ever before, to achieve that purpose,
advises tht very sup that would insure success
to tlinu aud disgraceful defeat to Ihe federal
government. It cannot be that he b innnerut
ly ia an error of belief. The matter is too
plain for even a fool to mistake and Vallaa-
dighnmisnntafool There is Homing " "
than that ho desires the independence of tho
South, and Ihat no advice of . that u.n.0-
tion can be taken by loyal men. f there wore
doubt before his arrest and banishment, of his
traitorous sympathies. Iliere can e none....
The armies must not bewMrawn U
State and every traitor has acknowledged the
Union flag. This is tho sentiment of Injnlty
nnd traitors must abide it.
