The week before l!t, the latter, after six days' run, crashing fovk from the Wide West lode, e'eaned bp aver oae hundred poundrof gold, (after retorted,) worth, say, in cush, $16,500. Wilson Waddinghamjs crushing rock from Confederate Star .lode, and is making almost as well. The Idaho Company have a fine 4ode also, And probably take out an average of $6,000 a week, while tbeir returns have been as high as $14,000 In a single week. The Pittsburg Company are also crashing Confederate Star rock, and doing well. The Victor Company keep tbeir business- very close, and alt we can learn is that the mill is pnying well'. The Yuba District is eighteen miles north-east of Rocky Bar, and there tbe ledges are astonishing, and it is likely to produce at smite skepticism, and a doubtof my Credibility were I to tell the whole truth. Still I make-not the slightest exaggeration, and do not, in fact, go nearly as large when I mention tbe Leonora, nine feet wide', and. very rich in free gold j Willamette, ten feet wide, gold and silver ; Silver Tide, twelve or fourteen feet ; Atlanta, ten to fifteen feet; Cleopatra, another splendid lead ; Minerva, aod dozens of otbert Some, there, repre sent lodes as being thirty or forty feet wide, but I do not of my own knowledge kbow ucb to be tbe fact. Dudley Hoyt is reported to have struck a splendid thing- in tbe shape of auartz in Yuba. I have seen arsays of rock from Yuba frpm f 17 to $2,000 to tbe a , - ton la gold, besides, pnylag qaaniU'tei of &itoer . At Owybee, tbe red-skins have broken out, and killed1 a ranchman named Hall, and stolen more 'of Hill Beachey's stage stock. Capt. Walker with forty men layout in tbeir country, and we may anticipate trouble this summer unless a thousand or fifieea.hon dred well matoiitecl cavalry cad be pat into the fie'd, armed Bad organized in a proper manner for figMing Indians. When will our " ruTe-and; ihtrmb " discipline io fighting In dians give-way to the only real mo eh-of get ting it tbem? The only way to-obaetise the scoundrels is to attack tbem ""by 11 flying raids," ever moving. If same of those gal lant fellows who made the great Mississippi raid during the- rebellion, saw tbe mode of fighting Indians and calling it a 'iid," or a setnt, they would only laugh.. Activity must prevail to attack and overcome the ever restless, ever moving -eh i I'd of tbe wilderness. It is hard work,.wearyinir and fatiguing, for no twenty to twenty-Hue miles riding. s day will catch Indians, even on foot much, less when they are all enounted They must bo first discovered- by good- rK able scouts, then followed and attacked sud den'y, and at several, points at. tbe same time to make success certaiev..' Tbe miners in Owyhee, and the ranchmen are bow iu .continual danger, and tbe trav elers on tbe roads are at all. times exposed to tUee savages. What) db treaties, an hundreds and thousands of dollars amount to- these red fiends ? Tbey are worse than useless, and only serve to help then to good outfits to light tbe whites,. THe tree mode is that adopted by our neighbors on British territory. They treat Indians as subjects to Queen Victoria, and as long as they behav? themselves, treat them-well, (but never give tbem annuities,) claim the toil as tbe pre rogntive of the crown, ard then- when th Indian breaks the. law, the whole power of tbe government of the Colony is used to aa- rest an punish tbe culprit. I could cite numerous Instancesof this, and will refer you to tbe cruise of tfle Thetit in .1854, the Trineomalee, in 1856) and. ethers before and since those dates. The weather .here Is splendid, and dntt is in ur streets but Rocky Bar is covered with ab.OHi.tiHX feet of snow, and JOwjrbee is the same. In the Boise- Bnstn trie snow is fait .disappearing, and tha u&er are com metre ing operations.
