Mining Intelligence. At a mecting of miners, held at Junction Camp, Weod’s Creek, on the 17th of October, a committee of five miners was appointed to “immediately notify all who are not citizens, or not eligible to become American citizens, (consisting principelly of Chinese, South Sea Islanders, South Americans and Mexicans,) to leave, on or before the 25th inst , that portion of Wood's Creek running from a point above the junction, known as ‘the Fall,’ to int below, known as ‘the Canon;’ also thi Bullivan’s Creek running from the Fi Junction.” The Sonora Herald, of Octobor 21, says that the rivers have sll risen a few feot, but no great ds mage has yet been done. Just before the raim tho digvines on all the southern rivers wero yiolding more handsomely than they had ever yet done. More fluming has been done on thom than ever be- fore, and the result in many instances has beon very enco ‘ ‘At Spanis oh ard vicinity, the miners are doing remarkably well. Uno piece, taken out s few dase since by Messrs. Ford and 1240, weighed near $800, and it, with another piece from the m@e claim, brought down here, weighed, together, ninety- six ounces. In this claim they have been averaging $200 93 day tothe man. The whole river, from Rich Bar down, as far as the miners are workin, is ‘paying good wages. At Indian Bar and the Junotion, the miners are all doing a good business. At Rush creek all who work are making from $3 te $12 each. This creck has never failed to pay the laborer for his work. A letter dated Nevada, Oct. 24, says that the continued Caen has given uausual opportu- nities and ilities to miners now working in the At the best these operations aro very precarious in their nature—necessarily attend- ed with a vast outlay, and frequently, where the most sanguine hopes were entertained, the results have beon moat unfortunate. The time for working in tho rivers is usually confined to a very limited | faery the water being seldom or never suffiviently w to work to advantage carlier than September ; it follows, therefore, that every additional week of dry weather is of the utmost value to such as are thus engaged. pnckly for them, the present dry sexson has Been unusually protracted, consequent upon | which, the rivers are at an exceedingly low stag, this and the sucoess of the miner propertionate to On the other hand, those interested in ravine and hill mining (by far the greater propor- tion of the lies) sre anxiously awaiting the wat season for a supply of water—without whioh, all their labor is fruitless The Bear River and Auburn Water Company’s canal is finally so far completed as to be available to the miners by the first rains, notwithstanding the great expense and time attending its construction, arising from a want of experience, and so far be- ‘ond the calculations of its projectors. This work Verges an extensive and rich mining country, to- tally Gapenaent upon the canal for wator, which cannot be exhausted for many years The discovery of a continuation of the celebrated Coyote lead, in Nevada, from which so many mil- lions of the precious motals were extracted in ’50 and ’51, is now established beyond a doubt. As yet it is not developed to any great extent, but enough, however, to give employment to a goodly numbor of miners. The character of the lead continues to be similar to the old mines, in appearance and pro- ductiveness. A few weeks further investigation of the lecality will no doubt give a now impetus to wining operations here, which have latterly been somewhat stagnant. The Sacramento Journal says:—We have been shown a lot of the gold taken outof the Mokelumne ran, valued at $2,500, which was superior to any- thing we ever examined before. The pieces of glit- tering ore were of sixes varying from a cucumber seed up to a pumpkin seed, and all in that fiat, oval ahi pe se peculiarly characteristic of Mekelumne gol . It was sent down from the store of D. L. ngier, in Calaveras county, and we are informed that the same company of six men that disposed of it, have taken out of the claim $36,000 of the same kind of specimens.

The company ef Chinese theatrical perfermers, | which came passengers in the Georgia, are said to gossces a great deal of profound talent, though, no doubt, of a somewhat povuliar order ; but whether Ft will be understood or properly appreciated, are questions which we will not attempt to decide. The novelty of their performances will, no doubt, be mafficient to attract crowds of the curious to witness their representation upon the stage, which will fully gratify the wishes of the troupe, without re- gard to criticisms or opinions on the merits of the performers.

This evil influence is progressing beautifully Among the recent immigrants are many who seem to have imbibed, frem tome source or other, very singuler ideas about the rightsof popsrty. In some cases they have gone upon lands which have been cultivated for many years, have survoyed them into plots ef 160 acres, and have actually given notice to the proprietors residing upon the soil that they must vacate their premisee— warning aman teloave his own house. The excitement with regard to such traneactions has reached an alarming state abou! the Mission San Gabriel. The Mormons at San Bernardino—.Their Politics, An attentive correspondent in Los Angelos county, says the San Francisco Herald, who has recently returned from an excursion to the Mormon sottle- ment ef San Bernardino, reprosents a highly pros- perous atate of affaira in the colony, and furnishes us with « few local items of much interest, from that uarter. u It is well known to most of our citizens that those people are settled in a valley in tho south, which is unsurpassed for fertility of soil, salubrity of climate, beauty of scenery, and genoral desirableness,by any tion of the State. ‘heir agricultural interest is larger than that of Santa Barbara, Los Angelos rete San Diege counties united, and tho espa- bilities of producing are much beiter. Their manufacturing interest is rapidly increasing. They supply the southern country with lumber, and for miles around they furnish flour frem tho fine mils which they have erected. They have purchased land for town sites in eligible situations on the ses coast, and very soon we shall hear of depots of supplies and markets for produce having been established by the Mormons near San Pedro and San Diego. Buchis the present condi- tion of the people who are to control the trade of the south. © now glance at the political as- pect of the San Bernardino sottleifent, and no con be more appropriate than those of our 8, a8 a body, have no ‘ principles’ established. Happy oreatures! But individually, the greater number are demoorats. For this hoat, however, they have signified their intention of sup- porting the whig ticket. in so so far as offices for county and State are to bo filled. The Presidential vote will, I think, be divided. Santa Anna, with a vote of sixty, also gooa for the whigs ; and many of the true democrats intend voting on their own hook, without heeding the convention admonitions. Scott, I think, will get @ strong vote hero, but Fillmore would have received, had he been nomiaated, a unanimous vote, composed of both partics.” Miscellaneous, Death To THE INNOCENT lotter has been re- ceived by Mr King, rays the San Francisco Hé- | rald, of Octobor 23d, from William Duer, U 8.

The Interior Rivers not yet Opened, The steamship Severn, at Southampton, Kngland, on the 18th inst. from South America, brings very late and interesting news from that quarter. The latest dates are:—Buenos Ayres, Oot, 2; Mentevideo, 5; Rie de Ja- neiro, 16 ; Bahia, 19, and Pernambuco, 22. The Severn brings accounts of the fresk revolution im Buenos Ayres, and of the overthrow of the power of Gen, Urquiza im that province. We have not yot bad time te hear how the mews has beem received by the interior pro- vines. It is probable that several of the govervors may adhere to Gea Urquiza. while the sympathies of the com- munities must be in fayor of Buenos Ayres, rendering other provincial revolutions almost inevitable. Gen. Ur- quiza’s career as a.public man we conrider ended, On the 11th of September, while General Urquiza, pro- visional director of the Argentine Confederation. was on to Banta ¥ ir Charles Hotham. the Buenos Ayrean party. consisting chiefly of members of the Par- Mament which Urguiza lately dissolved, selzed the go. vernu No bitod hes been shed, General Urquiza erring to leave Bucsnos Ayrey rather than sacrifice uman life, But, although Urquiza has thus retired from Buenos bd = tion. ‘The Guardia Nacional, of Oct. 2, contained Ur quiza’s clreular to the foreign consuls, dated Parai Hept 26, m which he speaks of whut hus happoued Buenos Ayres as a thing of mo importauon. nounces his intention ci leaving that provino: ake its own course, directing them to treat exclusively with him in all thet may coucerm the foreign relations of the confederation, and declaring that he is determined to in- stal the sovereign Congress, claiming for himseif the style and title of director, El Nevienal says—‘'T wo proclamations of General Ur- quiza, of date the 224, one to the Entre Rianos, and the other to the Santafecinians, have come by the steamer, in which ho announces that even withcut Buenos Ayres, reat. rich and powerful nation inay be formed.

On the same day a proclamation was issued to all justices of the peace amd te the commanders of the army.

A considerable displace- ment of troops now took place, with a view of prepari for the retaliatory measures of Urquiza, but they irered unnecerrary. The Gencral having heard of what had taken place, sent off Colonel Baez to Buenos Ayres with the following despatch :— “To his Excellency the Provisional Governor, Don Manuel Guillermo Pinto —After the undersigned has made immense sacrifices im behalf of the public liber- ties, and for the ey of his country, and sces, with t, that they ave not been able to diffuse through the Argentines the grand design of our national organ- ization; and desiring, moreover, now that the city @ Buenos Ayres has disewmed the authority of the under- nigned, to avoid the disasters that would ensue—in short, the effusion of blood and anarehy that would devour us; and for the purpose of giving world anether testi: mony of the restitude of his principles and the purity of his patriotism, he has determined to commission near the government of your excellensy, Colonel Don Pred rico Guillermo Baez, to whom he bas gives the necessary instructions for that purpose, and the undersigned trusts that your excellenoy will giv: ire faith and credit Ito all aforesaid colonel may manifest and say in the mame of the undersigned.

Baez stated the object of his mission im the following terms:—“ That General Urquize ordered all the Emtre Kiano troops ex- isting at Sam Nicolas to embark for the provinoe of Entre Rios; that he commanded the Santafecinian foroeajjto re- tire back, and left tho government of Bucnos in the tho full enjoyment of its rights; tbat he wished this movement to be concluded without a single shot being fired between Argentines; that he requests General Urdi- narrian and the Entre Riano forces to be conveyed to their province with their arms; and, finally, that he does not with to see us devoured by anarchy.” ‘To this the government returmed a conciliatory answer. An official deepatch, dated Sam Nicolas, Sept 20, says:— “At this hour, quarter past six P. M., the compromise is fuifilled, which Gem. Urquirzea had contracted with the prcvince and the republic, of retiring from the political scene, and leaving the province of Buonos Ayres the free mistress of its destinies. H.

My corrospondont at Peton writes me, without date:—‘‘ The Indians attacked the towm of Peten this morning early. The Petenriang mounted two swivels, and fired a few shots, and then fled, frightened by the large numbers of the Indians. They are all in 6 state of tho greatest confusion—mon, women, children, merchandise, fam niture and other propsrty huddled indisoriminately together. .Many of these people are only balf clad. The rain has poured down in terrents, and everything is in a horrible condition. The worst of all is yet to come. The people are all with- out focd, their clothing and bedding are wet, and therefore they are without shelter ; families have been separated—mothers are orying for their chil- dren, and children for their parents.
