So groat has become the excitement that the Mormon war, our lo- cal political affairs—always the source of considerable ecrimony—end tbe Kansas difficulties are for the timo being only questions of secondary importance in the pub. lic mind. Already a large emigration has taken place from this State, and people are coming from ail parts of the interior for the purpose of proceeding to the spots where it is believed fortunes are to be made in & week. During the past month fifteen hundred persons have left here for the new diggings, and though sufficient ime has not elapsed to allow reports to be received of heir succees, yet We have intelligence by two or three steamers weekly from the mines. The newspapers pub ished up there come freighted with wonderful accounts of the richness and extent of the new EF! Dorado. At first i ic confined to i and Washington Territories, bat i bas spread to California, and the furore ie daily becoming . On the banke of Frazer river, in the Hudson Bay country, gold hes been found in the greatest quantities. Though we are informed the aurife- rous elds extend to the American side, it is certaia the best lie on English soil. The region oxtends from the vi cinity of Fort Colville, in Washington Torritory, whore successful mining operations have been carried ou for yeara, in a porthwesterly direction to Fort Thompson, in the Britiah possersions, and is principally east of the Cas cade range of mountains, and betwoen Frazer river and the gold-producing land, to advantages are certain to encounter the adventurers. It might be inferred our mines are exhausted, aod that there is no longer apy protitadle results following the labors of our miners. But neither inference would be correct. Yoars ago individuals struck claims, and working them im many instances, the fortunate poeeessors became wealthy. But now things are much changed. The earth still yields the precious metals in abundance, but the principal business is done by corporations, beth fore'gn and native, and the sipgle adventurer bas less prospect of good luck. These companies keep large pumbers in their employment, pay- jog five (o six dollars aday, and in consequence we have many thoveande in our midst who seize with eagerness an opportunity of again entering upon a field where they can have work and receive tor their own benefit the result of their labors. Notwithsianding the inhospitable climate of the territory north, ite sparse , the fact of it being under foreign domination, the presence of hos- tile Indiavs, the thirst tor gold hunting gains strength. The condition of many of ons pores sligntly sketched will account, in a great measure, for the large emigration that bas taken place, and which will be vastly increased during | the ensuing three months. It is calculated not less than fifteen thousand people will lesve here, and as there is ample steamship accommodation, this number is within what will actually leave, The decrease in our population wil! uot have aay ipjurious etfect on this State. Thesupplies needed for their support will be brough* from San Fran- cisco, and in this regard trade will receive a groat stimu- Jus. Moreover, many who leave have been without em- ployment, and their absence will be serviceable ia two Ways--to the State apd to themselves. However, the micés may prove afailure. We bave bad within the past few years several gold excitements which proved hum bugs. It is certain gold bas been discovered on Frazer river, but it may have been in small quantities. Toe steamship companies reap a rich harvest, and the inhabi- tarts of seaport towns in Oregon and Washington, where passengers have tw lence, from whence they proceed in cances to the mines, likewise are served by the excite- ment, It i the interest of those parties to create tho opinion that the mines are rich and circulate exaggerated statements concerning them. There is not enough known yet to enable a correct idea to be formed of their value. The territory once two the United States, but was ceded to Great tata during President Polk’s administration. It is said by some of our papers that the mines should belong to us, and if the governinent bad remained firm they would now be ours With views like these put before the pub- Uc it is pot improbable serious complications wil! arise between Americaus and the English authorities, for the latter are feebly represented by the Hudson Bay Com. pany. There is Sittle sympathy with England here, and » it would be a source of dissatisfaction to see her govera- ment realige such a benefit from the grasping and anscru- me ee | of her raters, who now enforce a monthly tix of dollars oo each American miner who goes upon the fields. Rich and extensive gold diggings have aio discovered in Carson Valley. Almost en- tire je are preparivg to leave their occupations there for the mines. Specimens of gold were brought in by ex- ploring parties, which is of pt quality and heavy, ro- sembling what is called in California ‘‘ guich gold.”” Pmrnwe boy many claimants for lands in California, under grants the Meszican government, is the Catholic church, which was particularly well cared for by the rulers ofthat country. The church had to pursue the same course in relation to the mission grounds as other parties who destrea to be piaced tn possession under the new rule, The Board of land Commissioners confirmed te claim, and at the present time most of the demand has. been further approved by the bigher tribunals.
