With « matter of this kind, 1 is almost impossible to gencralize, ‘fo atato it moro clearly, we have hundreds of men in thie city who began thar gold-hunting carcor with tho ‘Argonauta of '49,” and ended it with Whito Pino, and who honestly state that tho averngo componsation to gold-mivera is loss than tho wages of ordinary day-Inborera, Gold-hunting ig a speculation, It is saddlo-bags, Mexican pony, riflo, hard bread, and hord associations.
