A new flace has rccntly been discovered which is yielding large a- towntiof the precious metal. There are now 150 or 160 hands at work on the ground, and all doing profita ble business.

We have been requested to call attention to the notice, and in doing so, Uke the opportunity to make a remark, or two. Salisbury has been for some time subjected to the re proach of not having within her luniu a single organ ixed miliUry corps, a slate of thinga which docs not "exist, perhaps, in one Town in a thousand of the same population in the country. Certaiuly the young gen tlemen of the present day, inherit little of the "mar tial spirit" of.their futhers, end are no admirers of the " glorious pomp, and circa nwta nee of military display, or they would have voluntarily stepped forward before in this matter. It is clearly right that the spirit should bo kept alive, and not permitted to die away, because there is no immediate prospect of there being a call for service; at least the credit of old Sulisbury is but poor ly maintained, when she is unable to boast a single band either for defence, or honor. ; We have hrd some propositions for the formation oft Volunteer corps, though we are uninformed whether tny progress, or even a beginning has been made in the matter. One thing is certain, that in anvevent those liuble will have to do military duty, and it only remains with them to choose whether they will be enrolled in the tommon militia, or form t Company themselves.

The only means for makinn their escape waa bv breaking th upper aide windows, and drawing up me passengers one by one. J his was done, and all escaped personal injury.
