We never heard any oi our iorcia-
j titers say anything about miners ever
having bepn jn this country bunting
fcr poIl, ir their day.v .
The "prospect h Acs" on the hill side
inear Urjant Lra;i .h arc not more than
; ten feet apart; higher up on the ridge
j however, they arc some fifty feet apart
i it.. n-.n ii r
dodo". can - be traced to the Yadkin
county line, a distance of about two
miles. ' :.
The "lead" runs north-east and
south-west, ns is the case in the Rocky
Mountains, borac ot the pit?, or "pros
pect holes," we opened. The most
prominent feature of which is, that
there is a hard, blue rock bottom
which is very heavy, and which, we
think, contains sonic precious metal
It is our opinioti, that this "lead"
contains silver cr.-ome other valuable
mtal, which has not yet been discov
ered, as the diners, who have been in
troduced into this section, hive always
heen told to "hunt for gold," and thus
in hunting ft r gold !o?t sight of the
ither precious metals. We are of the
pinion that the heaps of rock, which
have generally been designated as In
dian graves were ths-ewn up by per
sons, who visited this cunrry ccntu
nes ago. when it was a vast i nnrie, asj
lmtd marks by which they couid retrace
their steps to their headquarters or
boats for in those days mathematics
had. not been reduced to practical use,
is they now srs.
Such conclusions we never could
have drawn, had tint a gentleman, who
ha been engaged in the mining busi
ness fur several years in the west, bug
gestcd it.
The miners, whoever they svere, op
erated just as the miners of the present
diy. We also think, that we can dis
cover traces of a trench, which con
veyed water into a sluice box, and
judging from the suitability of the sit
uation, and the pits, there is no dc-ubt.
but that wc ar.e right in our conjec-
Hures. liare trees have crown. up in
ome of the pits and upon the mounds
composed of the earth thrown up.
Kow, what are we to conclude?
Some body has been here. Who and
where from. M. F. II.

Sweet Spirit,
I can not let this opportunity pass,
without communicating with her who
oft at eventide, and in the stilly night
has flitted across my mind to cheer
and enliven my thoughts. Thanks be
to St. Valentine for providing a d?y
in which 'tis permitted me to pour forth
my thoughts to one whose beaming
eye, sweet smile and lovely face have
won my heart, and kindled a flame of
pare love upon its altar.
Thoughts; of you, my gentle queen,
are wont continually to steal across
ray mind gentle, and refreshing as the
dew drops, which silently nestle them
selves amid the leaflets of the roses to
reflect the rays of the morning sun in
beauteous rainbow tints and to refresh
he drooping flower queens. Each mes
senger, a3 it ccmcvis welcomed with
joy because it speaks of thee, my love
ly Valentine.
When I gaze upon the bright orbs,
which in clusters and constellations of
exceeding beauty as they troop their
way across the vault of heaven ; each
strange world more brightly shines,
because it speaks of thee.
Not Venus in all her zenith is more
bright and beautiful to me than those
lovely orbs whose bright beams have
awakened in my heart sentiments of
warm, deep, tender love ; and now
sweet one, my lovely Queen, do these
heart-felt sentiments touch no chord
within your heart, causingit to vibrate
a sweet response ? Wilt thou not send
me some sweet messenger, telling me
of your regard for me and thus give
me a hope that you will one day trust
your heart to my keeping.
Sweet Spirit, hear me, and grant
me this request. And now, fair one,
good oye. May the star of peace ever
guard yr-ux pathway though life, and
crown thee with endless bliss.

down to Washington, and tl a i: mcct"
ings continue in wrath, throwing dirt
at each other, very like the vindictive
Democrats and gaseous Itepubl: . ;c5 In
Congress. Standing upon tl.'. broad
steps thit lead to the Senate Chamber,
I saw the eity enveloped in a gray
cloud that rolled and swelled and bel
lied up in wrath, and felt a deep sor
row fcr the poor people who go to make
up the population of this dreadful place.
Entering the Capitol, I passed along
the wide, beautiful corridor, and for a
second glanced at the gorgeous lecep
tion room of the Senate Chamber. It
was alive with women, gayly attired
chattingsome merrily, and others
earnestly with the law-makers of the
Senatorial Frg Bank. The gilded
walls and frc?c ed ceiling, from which
tumbled a'. multitude.-;' of naked babies
and half-dressed females ; the tail and
wide mirrors on every hand ; the soft
carp e ? a and the fit ifn n i trg upho!.-tery.
all seemed to nt and frame in the wo
m?n who rattled out their small talk
ro the dignified Senators. To one who
ha knocked about this wrld a good
d e a I, the ch - r c t or and pu rs u i t s of
these women were unmistakable. Some
were strangers, gnzing curiously at the
leg'slative surrounding, but the major
ity were the instruments of the rings
and lobbies that shape and influence
legislation so as to 11 their pockets
with puhlic plunder.
From the reception-room of the Sen
ate, throngh the wide and narrow
halls, and dark passages, through the
rotunda to the hall V;F the house, one
passes, or meets in groups or streams,
the same material, garnished by crea
tnres of the male gender, carrying in
their countenances the same evidences
of prostitution. -
I noticed all the more closely, for I
was on my way to the reporters gal
lery to hear a debate upon the better
way to arrest polygamy in Utah, and
legislate for the better spread of mor
als and Christianity. In the report
ers' gallery sat the Devil. A quiet,
well dressed gentleman
fcnie jncXet was red ami his brecche were Mno,
And a nice little hole where the tatf cani throngh."
Ana ni3 oatanic iiajesty natt on nis
countenance a smile of sardonic satis
faction. He looked down through the
softened light upon his children, talk
ing and laughing, and tndving to and
fro. They were the Saints of the Cave
legislating for the Sinners of Utah".
His Majesty laughed a quiet laugh,
scarcely audible, as he watched the
venerable Ben. Butler swing his pon
derous belly over his slender legs, and
Mephistophcles actually rubbed his
delicately gloved hands in glee when
Benjamin spoke of the great Republi
can party being committed to this mor
al more. 'The twin relics of barbar
ism, slavery and polygamy, mast die
together," cried Benjamin,
i "Ah, yes," said the Devil, "and
they die rich and Benjamin adminis
ters upon their estates. I was with
him in New Orleans, and his co-administrator
was J. Wilson Shaffer, Quar
termaster. Quartermastering was a
good business during the war, and J.
Wilson and old Ben. halved on the
quarterings. It was rich unto Fatnes3.
Now Benjamin, who has more influence
over Ulysses than any other man in the
country, has had J. Wilson appointed
Governor of Utah, and has set on foot
the great moral movement that fur
ther profits may accrue. There 13 an
other estate to administer upon, and
the two are ready. What a delicious
old fellow he is. When he comes to me
at last I shall be tempted to unscrew
my tail and hand it over to him." .
His Majesty ceased that he might
enjoy for a moment in silence the man
of all men who approaches nearer the
evil one in his mental, physical and
moral nature. He looks like a devil.
Over his eventful past one looks in

Mr." Hooper; the delegate from Utah,
got the floor and began reading a
lengthy appeal in behalf of his consti
tuents. Hooper is a plain, uneducated
honest man, believing in the faith ef
his people, and very popular among
he members of the Cave. I could not
but feel sorry for him standing alone
in the faco of the House and before
the crowds in the galleries, vainly
pleading for justice in behalf of a per
secuted and abused community. What
a pity, I thought, it was that the Mor
mon's were not black, fn that case the
same crowd that hung breathless upon
the utterances of Senator Revels,
would have gathered about the bloom
ing Hooper and found truth, beauty
and eloquence in all that he had to say.
