VAQl'lNA 1W.
I nm jiluced here in a most trying pnsilion,
anil I wish to lie hentd nnd ntuku my defi nse
against the aspersions of those who jndg6 V('r.v
liimlily ef matters And doings on litis hay ; nlie'n
compared with the several communications
which 1 have sent nut Tor puhliontion, in rclor
enee to my first report from here, dnted Oyster
ville, February U2d, 180G, I would sny that nil
of tlie essential facts nil it'll I asserted in that
letter aro true. So far as regards the hny and
harbor, entrance from lite sea and genernl at
pect of the country on a lour n:unihs' ao
qiiaiiitiince and twelve Irips down tn the sea,
iu all tides, und traveling much over llie coun
try, and forming acquaintance with nearly nil ol
tbe white settlerr,! am now prepared to describe
YAyUINA DAY AT Htt'.SKNT.
The whito settlers on the bay, and ill arms
or inlets, are about four hundred. About two
hundred and fifty claims are taken by nctnnl
settlers ; whole number of square miles in this
newly opened district, two thousand five hun
dred. Thus it is plainly to bo seen that tlie
country is not ull to be taken lip. There are
many bogus claims here, tuken by silventitrera.
Many persons coming dnnii the Vaquina riu-r
to this place see only ahni7 tho mad, and on
tho steep hills, rig', and left. rrived at I'i
oncer, they see livt a siniill pnilion of llie. ttiwii
site ; then often hasten on lioiird Ihe steamer
and mnke u Hying visit tn Oysterviilu and tlie
bench and return on tlie evening tide. Some
remain a few days at the bench, lint see very
little encouraging there, as the fishing season
has not yet cnniiiienceil, and the weather bus
been riiinny and blustering, inure or less, Inr
three months past. Persona tints coming here
do not find that the fish jump out of the water
ready cooked, in butter, and full on their plates;
nor is tlie onun'ry smooth and highly improved,
like tin- best poiliiins of Ihe Willamette Valley.
Hy fur llie best portions and largest districts
for ginid farming and stock-raising are nil llie
bay, And not iu sight from tho boat. There
has been no lumber till twelve days ago ; hence
the huts, have been constructed with chip
boards ! Provisions have been very scarce, nnd
generul necessnries hard tit be obtained, on nu

Chicago. June 21. The following is a sum
mary of the Senate debate uf Monday on the
bill lo regulate Ihe occupation of mineral lands,
reported May iiSih, by Mr. t'oiinera, from the
committee ou mines and mining as a substitute
for Sumner's bill:
The substitute having been read, Mr. Slew
art moved lo add the following section, which
was adopted, namely: That aa a further con
dition of sale i tho absence of tieeessnry
legislation by Culigrrss, Ihe local Icgnla
tare of any Slat or territory way provide
rules for working mines Involving drains, or
any other means necessary In their develops
inrnt. and three conditions shill be fully ex
pressed in lbs patent. Mr. Stewart explained
ibe laws and custom, of miners, which he said
were founded in justice and challenged the ad
miration of all oho investigated them, aid a
series of wise and judicious decisions lute
moulded these regulation, into a comprehen
sive system ol common law, embracing no" on
ly the mining laws, but also regulating the use
of water for mining purposes. This syslrm
ha spread i vrr all mineral Slate, and territo
rnf . and is all anderstiaNl by millions of men.
A roimrs law is part of In. nature, lie
made it, and he hives, trust and obey. it. lie
hu given the honest toil of his life to discover
wealth. wliM-h. when found, is protected by nn
higher law than that enacted by liinm-lf under
Ilia Implied sanction of a just and generous
tj.jveiiiiocrit The Kenatias who have led
gitcii tins subject special attention, can hardly
realne the aumtrrlul result, uf this system ol
fat wining. It would be a national ual.ltuli;
In a l"t a st stem that Won hi close Ilia' r-gmu
tn the prospectors, lint the importance nl tlie
legislation which shall give title so important
for permnnent property, is daily increasing by
the agitation of tlie subject, by Hie intrndno
lion of bills looking tn w hat miners regard as a
general system sf confiscation hy the absolute
necessity of some system nf guaranteeing In
capitalists return, for their investments. To
extend to the miner the fre-etnptinn applicable
tn agricultural districts, is absurd and impossi
ble. Nature does not deposit precious inelnls
in regular forms, discriminating Iietween per
nendicnlnr form of earth, nor will it do to sell
lands in advanoe of discovery, for this would
slop operations and tend to speculation which
would never find mines. Your committer
have, therefore, prepared n hill which may lie
improved by experience, but your cntnmitte
would apprehend evil consequences front any
material change, in the plan at this time. The
system of free mining, holding mineral lands
open tn explurnlinn and occupation, subject In
legislation hy Congress nnd localities. It
recngnixes obligations nf Government to re
spect private rights which have grown up un
der its tacit onnsent il nil approval. It propo
ses to allow miners who hnve ocoupied, or may
hereafter occupy and improve nny mines in
good faith and according to the local rule tn
purchase nt Ihe rate nf five dollars per acre
and receive a patent therefor in such form as
'hull grant the initio with its deposits to any
depth, with such reasonable amount of ser
vice as the miners shall determine by local
laws to be necessary for working the fame.
It also provides, in ease of dispute an lo tlie
right of possession, for deter iniitg that ques
tion in local oonrls, where miners' laws are un
derstood, and facilities administered. It makes
the public survey conform to nature and nature
to Ihe survey. It require, the payment of i)
per cent, on the net proceeds into Hie Trensu
ry until tile Depart ine.it ."'mil luivo been paid,
which is in lieu of the stump tax. It lurtiishes
'II not mil settlers quieting titles In their home
steads. by segieguiiug of tig iculluriil from min
eral In title., nnd confirms tlie rights to use ol
water and right of way for ditches ns estab
lished bv local law nnd the ihcieiults of Ihe
court. In shoit, it proposes n new system, but
sanctions, regulates ami confirms a system tn
which the people are devotedly ultauiicd, and
removes those of doubt mid uncertainty which
have recently retarded I tin growth nml pros
perily of our mining ('iimmuuiiics. In my
opinion this bill will hiriiieh homes to thousands
of families, mid will furni-li titles and increase
llie iiroduulion of precious metals. The pro
posed tax is not large, nnd will nut be oppress,
ive, but is all tlie subject will hear. This is
just three per cent, nnne limn the f irmer pai s
on llie net pnifciils of bis farm, hut I litis,- who
have not pioduutiotis have no money with
which In pay, and they m-tor refue In pay us as
long ns they have money.

-Tlie entrance nf Prussian, into Saxony was

the army In Ihiliemia, and it is rumored that
the Buxons had effected a junction with the
Austrian., nnd that tho Prussians oouipioi!
Dresden nnd overrun the entire kingdom, rush

Saxony was hourly expected. The King of

a small garrison in Dresden nnd advanced into
Bohemia, vv ilhmit resistance. A slight onllieioli

definite pence, and further, propose to Ilnly lo

that, for supreme reasons, the noble province
of Venetia was then allowed lo remain in the

up arms, but neverllteless showed a desire for
pence by accepting a proposal for n conference.
