I have had Ihe mas ter of the Government lighter employed for sev eral days in getting a crew for her ; and when he ofli rs eighty dollars per month for sailors, he H laughed at, and told that a man can get that a mount in the mines in one day! A few days since, I sent a wagon-master to employ some men to handle stores in the public warehouse. After searthing about the town, in vain, fur several hours lit saw a man on Ihe deck whom he felt sure of letting, for llie individual in ipies'ion did not seem to be blessed with a red'., '''e-y of this world's gear.
