Fnm- TU Public IMgtr. GOLD MINES AND GOLD HUNTING. Gold 13 found in rnost'granite ridge pre seining rrarh, and iiyeciiohs with quanz, and consequently in thp Bands, beds and meadows of streams flowing from such ridg es. According to geology, which writes in a hand quite legible to those who under stand its alphabet, all metals are thrown up from the regions below thb. stratum of pri mitive rock, or granite, through cracks in such stratum. Granite consists of quartz, feld spar and mica, fused, mixed and cool ed. Hence each of these elements must be J found below ihn cooled crust. When the crust cracks, either by contraction in cool ing, by expansive force below, or pressure above through diminution of bucIi force below, some of the elements below are usu ally injected into the cracks. Hence we often find veins of quariz in strata' of gran ite, sand stone and other parts of the crust, at right or smaller angles with the direction of the cracked straturh or strata. . When quartz is thus injected, it is sometimes mix ed with "fold alone, sometimes with cold and sulpnuret of iron, sometimes with Vari ous metals; and those injected veins are sometimes found' on the (summits of the highest rnouutaius, forced through the en tire crust of tho earth, by exposure to wa ter and the atmosphere, the sulphurct of iron sliukt or separates the quartz, libera- tiny; ti.e particles of gold, and also of sul phurel of pyrites, which arc afterwards washed by the rains and melting shows, in to the heds and along the margins of fiv ers ; the uluclted quartz being also washed down assand. All minerals are found most abundantly in ridges crossing each other; for here are cracks in both direciions, and the most numerous injections m givenspace. Sometimes gold is lound without pyrites ; and in this case the quartz is not slacked, but simply worn and dissolved by the rains and floods, especially when aided by frost, as in great elevations. The gold washed ; down is found in lumps, grains, scales and j dust, and through (he whole depth of the alldvion, however great. And it will also I probably be found throughout the ijuartz I vein. Hence when gold is found in allu i vion, it can generally, though not always, be traced to quartz veins in the mountains from which tho river flows, lint sometimes the xroltlon sands d)s;rpP"nr suiLlPnly, at! different distances from the nJge. In such cases, the quartz veins have buun injected not into the ridge, but into some strata cross- lnc the bed ol the river, which will be lound i u- , , , ,, , , , . ii- uuder.-'fooil that seven of them were on penetrating the alluvion. , ltli , ,i , e v i . . - . , i f ,, i n i I left ashore on the sand of Nigr. but none 1 he tro i ol L ahfornia will probably be , ., . t f c , r . b , . .. fl, ' 'v , "ii the ( romartv seid of the firth On traced to the quartz veins ot tlie hieira Ae-1 ,, , - . t . j , , 1 , ..-I w.

A Shoal op Whales The following description of ,in exciting scene ia copied from an English paper: On the afternoon of Monday last the peaceful village, of Sallburn, near Invergor don, was thrown into considerable excite ment by tho siidduen appearance of n large ahoal of bottle-nosed whaleH. performing their gambols at a short distance from the shore. 0;:n uf the villagers,-who was for tunate enough to have all his wita about him in this unlooked-for visitation, having Hurriedly mustered a strong force well armed with muskets, hatchets, and nitcli- forks. boldly rowed into the very heart of tho assemblage, and in a few hours stic eowled in bringing 20 of them to land. A few of the multitude of spectators, stimula ted by Joe's example and encouraged by his success, wisely judging the occasion no time for idly looking on, eagerly joined in the sport, and after many -hair breadth scapes'' and a world ot trouble, contrived to secure as much to the spoil as made the entire number captured 45. Some of them measure Is f,.0t in length- ()n Tuesday mornino', wh.it with the tossing and heav ing of the dying monssters, the bustling activity of the . blubber cutters, and the crowd., of visiters from the surrounding country, the shore presented an unusual scene of animation. IJeing divested of all their fat the carcases wero carted oil by the farmers in the neighborhood- for ma nure. About f0 large casks confining tho blubber are to be shipped for the smith, and it i.s hoped the proceeds will bo such as to remunerate the owners for their la bor unit ml..

From the AW Orirn, HalUixn, Dtc Z&, Ihe Cholera We regret lfia; Sre ibouW be compelled, ou a day that is uu ally devoted lo merry making and festivity, to present to our readers such a melancholy array of facts respecting the health of the city, as will bo found in the official reports of the lioarJof Health, for the last 48 hours, which we give below, The weather, wmch at our hist publication promised fav orably, unfortunately resulted otherwise, and our streets,, winch from extra exertion on tnepart of the contractors and Municipal authorities, and Ihe effects of a few days of dry weather, were rapidly improyinir, hava again been drenched with rain, which fell nearly the whole of the day and night of Saturday, and though it has since cleared. yet tb) atmosphere is heavy and humid, wiin me tnerinomcter during the day ajj4 in the shade, at and above 80 deg. It will be seen, that the authorities of the Second Municipality have taken the need ful measures for furnishing fUe indigent poor with medical attendance and medi cines gratis, and it should be the duty of every citizen to secohd this, by impressing on all in his immediate neighborhood- the absolute necessity of caution in diet, and prompt attention to the every first symptoms of disease. If this i attended toby ihe community, there is but litle danger to be appre liendcd for any ore. notwithstanding the iucreasetl mortality shown by the present reports; for the disease if taken in time "rea dily yields to medical treatment, as ha been the result with all the cases in private practice that have come to our knowledge wherohcy were promptly attended to. We would again urge on all hous keepers the necessity for collecting and removing all filth and and rubbish about their yards premises, and also the free use of lime. During the prevalence of this disease preventive ani'. precautionary measures requiring attention, and though it is .lalber late to commence a general reform 'of the kind alter the epidemic has appeared, yet still much good will be accomplished, if the system is generally pursued. The cas'-sin private practice still continue to be comparatively few in number, and we sincerely hope and believe, that under the arrangements now being earned into effect, that the disease will be nromDtlr itheckeid, and soon will entirely disappear.
