On Wednesday he was found by his brother James somewhere on Applegate, in a helpless condition, and was taken Home, no coum guv u in telligible explanation of his condition. His hands were skinned nnd bruised and his back turn nnd hurt, as though ho had . j,lul or been dragged over rough ground. Ho says that ninny hours passed during which" he can remember nothing.

It pays from thrco to tea doliars per day, and sometimes more, to tho hand owing to tho freaks of Neptune in throwing up tho sand. Tho blutr mine is twenty-iivo feet above tido and is an old beach in which thero is a stratum of sand from ten to twenty feet thick thnt nssiys from ono to fifty dollais to tho cubic ynrd. Experts who have examin ed black sand, pronounce this the rich est they liavo seen in Oregon or Califor nia.
