The consequence was an immediate rush to Bur- [From the Alta Cabfornia, Sept 15 | The fame of the great tunnel now in process of jon through the west banks of the South Fork, at Coloma, has extended from section to section throughout the mountain districts, and inte- rest end curiosity to a considerable degree have been excited among the gold diggers of that region by the magnitude of the plan and the brilliant proa- pects of those engaged in the work, if success can at all belong to the undertaking. It is probably the grandest effort of urt to grasp the treasures of na- ture at * one fell swoop” that ever was made in the region watered by the American river; and this remark comprehends a vast amount of jabor expended upon @ large tract of placer country, for the principal tests of science, strength and capital in mining have been made in the American river gold region. The diggings have been more skill- fully and arduously worked in that quarter, and have perheps produced « larger quantity of trea- sure, then any other tract of mining couatry of the | same extent in California. The earliest discoveries of gold were made among the bills of Coloma, and the secret of the earth's wealth having been carried to some ad- verturers whose camps whitened the river’s banks many leagues down the stream, digging was com- menced, which resulted in the upturning of wealth, at the point now known as Mormon Island or Na- toma. Here in the fall of “48 a dam wes com- menced with a view to divert the course ot the river, and drain a large portion of its bed. The oyne & Co., James King of William, and Wells & gy Depesitors drew some 4 freely from the two for- mer, who paid out as fast as possible, converting all hands into payiog tellers. There was not so Jarge a call on Wells & Co., though a large amount ‘wus paid out by them. It being the third day’s probation of Mr. King, the crowd with him was not so great es might have been expected. At Burgoyne & Co.’s there was a large erowd the whole day, resembling more the gathering at the Post Office on the errival of a mail steamer, than anything else we can compare itto, Mr, Plame acied like a man, end a banker who understood his business. He-posted up a notice thet he would keep open to accommodate the public until six o’clock, (an hour later than usual,) and also that his bank would be open on Sunday. We admire the spunk which dictated these offers. Mr. Plume repeatedly requested those in the crowd not mgt checks, togive way tothese who had. We notice a number of women about Burgoyne & Co.’s doors. The excitement was confined to no sex. We heard a number of people congratulating Mr. King on the perfect nonchulance with which he met all demands. It was amusing to stand by and hear the excuses made for withdrawing de- dosits. Some were going to Panama, and some to Humboldt; one man had purchased a drove of sheep, and wnother a drove of horses. While standing at Mr g's counter, “ taking notes,” we heard one of his depositors making a long ex- cuse for withdrawing. * Really, sir,” said Mr. | rains ot winter interrupted the work, but the eom- King. ‘1 have net time to listen to you. | pany renewed their operations in the springs and You have your money—and it belongs to | after expending a large amount of capital, finally you. Excuses are entirely out of place. I don't ask you to let your money remain. Certainly, sir, if you have not confidence in me, don’t deal with me. Atsucha time, favors are not avked for.” ‘We understand that when Mr, Plume announced his intention to keep open on Sunday, to accom- modate depositors, that he received the cheers of the crowd. Notwithstanding the excitement, the amount deposited with Burgoyne & Co., yester- +, was quite large. the “crisis” then has come. Only one banker has closed. The others have met the emergency promptly. And they will continue so todo. We will venture the remark that Messrs. Burgoyne abandoned the project, foreseeing that their labors were not to be crowned with the success antici- pated. Thus reen\ced the first attempt, familiar to the chronicles of gold gathering in California, to drain and dig the beds of rivers. Many as equall, ‘unsucceseful plans have been subsequently pursue to enrich company organization, but draining and damming has been very generally given upin most parts of the Placer.

VervT eng in nature see! to favor the occasion. tay street was thronged with feminines, "4a fathers and husbands were called upon % give checks on banks tor the purchase of ““jutestrings and laces, brovades, bobinetts, and buttons.” There never was such a mustering of merry ma- king maidens end matrons as congregated about the dry “goods stores on Clay and serge sireets for three days previous to the event which was to be a remarkable era in “life in California.” Young men meeting on the street, exclaimed— “Haste to the dance to-night, For dark eyed beauty will be there— Her coral lips in nectar steeped, And garlanded her bair’”” And hastened cn to make preparation for the “joyful occasion.” There never was such a cemmotion among the milliners since “the days of innocence down through the lapse of buried ages, to the last syllable of the gracelass present.” They were for once in clover, and “bright, blushing, killing love- liness,” and mede many an honest penny out of “fashionable frivolities.” E The Thursday night at length arrived, and with, it commenced the grand gathering of the gentle at the St. Francis. The tables and other furniture were removed from the dining room, making it as magnificent a salle de danse as one would wish to see. It was a lovely sight to gaze upon—that fall ar- ray of “fairy and et forms,” and it threw a spell eround our heart which our “flagging fancy” fails to portray, and our new gold pen—the gift of our friend Dodge—refuses to record. There was the blue-eyed beauty from the “frozen North,” fair as the snows of her native clime, “with breath all incense end with cheek all bloom,” to- ether with the ‘‘dark-eyed, rosy-lipped and ring- jetted brunette.” Let us endeavor with the faint faculties with which fortune has favored us, to note down a few of the fair forms which flitted across our visien, and illuminated the gay scene with their presence.

Mrs. S., from Boston, never looked better than on Thureday evening, and we will venture that no dark eyed ove ever shot more effectual glances, or won more hearts 'o re ful devotion. She was a ruling star in a host of satellites. Miss W. and the Misses K., kept our heart for some time evenly bellanced between three beauti- ful worlde, but a quiet emil*, with which our ad- miration was rewarded by one of the fair ones, turned the scale—we shall not say which way.
