As California Joo Says, “This Ain't Ko Poor Man's Digin's, This Aint.” About Five Hundred Miners Already in the Hills, The Secrecy and Mystery Connected with the Scientific Party, A Blast at the Military and tho Indians, The Hypothetical Mining Region a Splendid Cotntry for Stock- Growing.

One witl reply, “It don't amount to anything, bit wo may find fomething you." An- othor will ray, *Well, I'm hanged it Iknow what to think.” 8till another will answer, wThis wholo country will Lo dug over and washod ont, but no poor moan will bo able to do it." Fvery one, however, b an opinion, sud it only noeds n toddy or Lwo to get at tho aab- elance of it in tho greator nuwber of in- sances, Tho opinions diffor, of courwo, aud ail kinds of thocries nro advanced, each tending to show that the author of the thoory is {ho man whom Inserutablo Providence has in- flicted with gonius, Ono thing agroed npon is, that N0 GOLD 18 FOUND ULOK THE NED-ROCK, You can wash ont colar from tho grass-roots down througli rel clay and gravel; but, when yonreach tho bedrock, yon will find nothing. No exception to this rule hns yet beon diecov~ erod. From this fast, the theory Is advanced by some, that the goldis n recont wash that fa ull washedout.
