Greeley, in one of his letters complains
at their not having any sunshine In Eng
land. If he will extend his navels a little,
and visit California in any of the summer
months, I will promi.-c hint that he shall be
satiffted no difference how hard he is to
please. For lite last three months we have
had "nothing ele" but sunshine; and I
hnvy not seen a cloud in a "dog's ago."
At any rate, any man who labors in the
1 mines tiurit g the summer months willbe
sniffled that there is sufficient sunshine.
Tho present is a busy lime for politicians

ilie State. H tth parties have tickets in the

pvery oftieo frcin Consiublt; up.,: to liepre

Democrats, and Inth.pendeuts was held ut a

nithis since, at which some daon or twenty
"rich aitd racy" "speeches" wcro made.
livery candidate present for Constable.
Coroner, Recorder, Sheriff. Representative,
&e. &e. addressed the meeting, each .ad;
vnca'.ing his own claims. Another meeting.
of the same character and for the same pur.
pose is to be held at Mariposo to-day.' J
suppose ihcro will be rare fun, for Caltforni
ans go 'things with a looseness."
My own opinion is that the Democrats
will carry this county, and most probably
the State; and in the latter event you may
expect John ?. Weller to be elected 10 the
U. S. Senate. Fremont stands liule or no
chance. Indeed I have been informed by
a prominent n:t mlu r of his party that he
will not attempt to contest the election, lie
is ai present, I believe somewhere in South
ern r Lower California, purchasing cattle
to fill, a contract he has entered into with the
Government. ' -,.
The Indian tribes, that have been so long
engaged in stealing from and murdering the
miners, have nearly or all come in, and the
volunteer forces called out by the Governor
last winter havo been disbanded. They
were paid off with orders on the State Treas
urer who is ordered to pay them out ofthe
"Ifan authorized for that nurpote." As a
law Mas merely passed authorizing a loan
which ii.) one was found willing to take, you
may conclude that the volunteers utter
cursc-a both loud nnd deep against the Statu
government. , They supposed, at least, that
they would ge t "State bonds," bearing inter
F?t irjsuad.of which they get orders for
payment out of a loan that may not he effect
ed in ten years." The last member of tho
Ijetislaiurg from this county was a voun"
lawyer, and he cemrs in for a grent portion
of the an. uro. .
Speuliing of lawyers, however, reminds
mu of what I saw one of the profession at
a short limn (duce, who hails from Virginia,
belonged It) one of tho ".yfrsi families" there,
and has "Judga" prefixed to his name. It
wus Sunday, and of couno business in 11
professional way wns out of the question,
so he had turned 'fur one day only," Auc
liuticcr, and when 1 saw him, was eloquent
ly discoursing tho tnorits of 0 pair of "bro.
gnns." Cut nietnhers of the profession, at
home, must not get down un him for this ol
fence, for if the words put In the fttouth of
tho devil by Southey. be taken ns truth, he
was raising tho dignities of their" profession,

Mining on the Mut iposa, thus far this sum
mer, has been very brisk and profitable
much more so than last season. Tho main1
reason for this is thtit the bars &c. have
been worked on an 'entirely differ: nt plan
from what they . were last season. Then
holes" were sunk anil pumping resorted to,
to get the bed rock. . Of course they were
hut imperfectly worked. Spaces would huvo
of necessity to 1u left between botes, and
frequent movings of the same dirt would ou
cur. This year, all these difiiculii a have
been obviated. ' Miners httvu commenced
at a full in tho creclc.'nnd d.ig a ditch to the
bed rock in the cretk or bar -as tho case
might be -thus .carrying the water out of
their claims,' A "faeo" war then opened
across tho "bar" where they wished to com
mence, and the tlTfl froiti' each succeeding
'"lier" is thrown behind. Thu ditch walls
have ti) he built, to keep the channel open
behind. !n this way of working bnrs"j)iles"
have been made in places considered, "dug
out" last summer, I will mention olio in
stance perhaps tho. richest. List Spring,
"our Mess". had claims marked out for them
on a bar, but wero induced by a fellow Who
professed to have worked on il last season,
and hclpul "dig it Out,", to give them tip.
Another parly wt nl on and averaged from
eight to ten hundred dollars a week u piece,
and finally sold out and went home. Two
or ibne more parties i hnvo been on thy bar
since, and nil have dono well, and many
hnvo gone homo with their piles; and still the
bar pays well. On tho bar immediately
nbovu us, some six or eight person havo
taken out from two to five thousand dollars
apiece', and gono hutuu. Sumu of course,
have gono without largo piles. " '
But iho"OAt Ear," what of it t , Well
it's not near so rich isn't, 'still it raffo'rds
us very good diggings. During' the) last
tlirnu weeks, o have taken out four ' hun
dred dollars apiece, over all expenses; and
it promises fatter for the future. Wo take

Tho prophet Joseph was ditecteJ by an

gold plfttcit; and ti.e compolled by ,i!ih an
gel, much against liis will, lo bJ ih-j inter

the plates, but'the glowing- aecottnt of their
massive richness excil -d oilier than spiritual
hopes, and he,' upon one occasion, got a
viUago silvt;rsmitlv 10 help him estimate
their vUtu'e, taking ns basis tho prwpheiV
account of their diiuensioni. tt-was a
blending of ihe spiritual and utilitarian that
ihrew a shadow of doubt upon .Martin's sin
ceriiy.". This," -and some untietpaiioin lie
indulged in as to the proliis that would arise
frohi- the ' sale "of ihe Gold B bls, made it
then, as it is now, .1 mooted 'to stion wln,;h
ei he was altogether a dupe.
-.The wife of Harris wjs a rank it.fi lei
and heretic, touching th;? whoU iliing, and
decidedly opposed to her .husband's partici
pation in it.' With sacrilegious hands she
siezed over a huhdred of the manuscripi
pages oT the'' titUv revelation, aiid burned 'or
secreted them. I a, ' was agreed by -Smith
and family, Cowdery ' and Harris, not to
transcribe these again, but to. Jet so much ol
the new revelation Jrop out," as ihe "evil
spirit would get up ia si.ory that the second
translation did not agree wiih the first." A
very ingenious method, surely, of .guarding
against the possibility that Mrs. Harris had
preserved the manuscript with which Ihey
might be confronted, should they attempt an
imitation of their own niiseuble patchwork.
- Thd' prophet did not get his lesson well
upon the start, or the household of the inl'
postors were In fault. ' After he had told his
story, in his absence,, the ( rest of. the family
made' a "new rersion of ii 10 one of their
neighbors. They shewed him such a peb
