Not one of the nowaday Washoo and Nevada stripe, but an old '49 California miner. 1 have been longaged in all deseriptions of mining transactions, except the now-fan- | gled one of mining stock in companios “feet” I believe they call it. Among my varied undertakings was one operation [in a tunnel, in which myself and my partners engaged in the summer of 18 | One afternoon in that year, as I was | earrying up a bucket of water from the | river to our tent at the top of the bank | my foot caught under a large stone, and | my perpendicular was at once changed to | & horizontal posture, while the water | from the overturned bucket spread itself in various directions. With a few exple- tives of rather forcible character, quite [eustomary and common in that region |and period, I raised myself to my foot again, and, picking up the bucket, was about to retrace my steps to the river, when my attention was attracted by a | folded paper which had been placed un- der the stone causing my fall. ~ When my | foot tripped, the stone “was overturned, and the paper, folded in lotter form, lay exposed to view. Bending over, I pickod it up, and proceeded to examine it. It was written in pencil,in characters irregu larly and stifily formed, as if made by a person with a wounded hand. The con- tents were as follows: If this letter should fall into the hands of any person, 1 wish to inform them that I have been attacked and mortally wound- ed by my two partners, who wished to obtain my money. ling to discover it, after wounding me, they have fled, leaving me here to die. Whoeve this letter will find, buried in a ra oot of a ‘‘blazed” tree es due north of this, a 85,000 in gold dust. That it may prove more fortunate property to him that it has to me is the hope of ANDREW INDUS, I stood for some minutes after reading the letter like one awakened from a dream, I could not convince myself that the letter in my hand was a genuine document, and read it over and over again, thinking I might get from the handwriting some clew to the real author, It might be a trick got up by my partners to raise a laugh at my expense. Noj; the pl where it was found, and the purely accid- ental discovery, rendered such a surmise very improbable. I sat down on a log and turned the matter over and over in my mind for some time. At last 1 got up, and pacing off the required distance in the direction mentioned in the letter, 1 came to a large tree. Carefully examin- ing it, I discovered a scar, clearly indi- cating that the tree had been *‘blazed” at some remote period. This was “confir- mation strong as proofs of holy writ,” and I immediately undertook to discover the locality of the ravine. Here I was at fault. Nothing of the kind was to be seen. To all appearances a stream of water never had passed in the neighbor- hood of the tree. This was not encourag- ing; and I sat dawn on the ground and read the letter again, to. see if 1 had not mistaken some of its directions. No, I was in the right place; but where was the ravine? A tap on the shoulder aroused me from my meditations, and, on looking up, 1 saw my two partners, who loudly berated me for having neglected the preparation for their supper. ~As an excuse, 1 showed them the letter, and detailed the manner of my finding it. To my surprise they were as much excited by its perusal as I had been, and we all looked around per- severingly for the ravine, but without effect for some time. At Jast Jack Nesbitt, who had been a miner since '49, said: “I think there has been a ravine | and await my fate, when I observed that | was making its way down the side of the cave. | At first T was alarmed, as T thought it might loosen the earth above and bring | The | another mass down on my head next moment the thought struck me that it might be turned tomy advantage | Why could 1 not so direct it that it would wash a way sufficient carth in its pro to the outlet of the cave to admit the air, and perhaps make an opening large s [ miles between them, melting aw feotious and Russel was just as confident [ was about to throw mysclf on the ground | the confidenco of Miller had_proved in.l‘ \ [ quite a current of water, on & small scalo | The Now York steamer compnay were | confident, too, but not in the same way. | Soa bet was made. 1t was a pretty good | sized bot, being for &50,000 a side. The race bogan and was watched with breathless interest. Station after station was passed. The pony from the ocean and the pony from the valley panted to ward each other, with the hund oach station there was another h | dled and rider ready spurred. TI y.

Ina fow minutes I could push it still further, till at last it was out of my reach. against it, 1 pushed bothas faras [ could. the first opening made by the wate first it was swallowed up by the earth, but I w ified by observing that it flowed in a steady stream in- the direc tion 1 which I had pushed the pick and shovel, In afew minutes I disoovered a faint glimmer in the distance, which might be an opening or the eiect of an excited imagination, 1 scarcely knew which. But the doubt soon resolved itself into cer- tainty, and an opening some five inches in diameter speedily disclosed itself. Larger and larger the opening grew; lump after lump of earth was washed away by the stream, till the channel be- came large enough for me to place my head in it, and halloo lustily for assist. ance. Just as I was drawing my head back, T caught sight of a buckskin Hastily seizing it, 1 found that it was the one we had been in search of, and which but for the accident, 1 would never have found. Wishing to surprise my com- rades, I concealed it, and redoubled my cries. Ina few minutes th{; came run- ning up the hill, and soon liberated me from my unpleasant position. “Well Ned,” said Jack, as he took me by the hand. ~ *I'm glad you're safe, old fellow—the more so, as Bill and 1 have been deceiving you a little. You know e have been trying all the summer to get you to go into a tunneling operation, and you have only laughed at us?” “Yes,” said I, wondering what would come next. *‘Well when you found that letter, Bill and T made up ourminds that we would go into the job with yon; not in the the hope of finding any bag, but because we knew you would work twice as hard with such an inducement, intending, mean- while, to wash the excavated dirt. This wo have done; and my boy, we have never mado less than $300 any da we commenced.” “Then you think the bag a humbug,do you?” “Why, of course,” said he. “Well, I don't, and I intend to go on looking for it.” “Now, what's the use of being fool- ish?” quoth Bill Jeunings. “We've got as much dirt as we can wash for some time, and it pays. I can't see the use of continuing such a wild-goose chaso as the hunt for that bag,” here, but it has been filled up by the rain On close examination we decided that his supposition was correct, and, after some consultation, we determined that we would commence digging the next morning. Morning came, and we repaired to the spot with pick and_shovel. Jack pro- posed thst we should follow the course of the ravine, which appeared to run in the body of the hill, rather than to dig down; for, as he said, we would be more likely to find the bag in the bed of the ravine by following it up than to dig down in'any one place. The result was that in a fow days we had formed quite a cave in the side of the hill. We had worked at this tunnel for four days without finding the bag. On the fourth day Jack proposed that he and my other partner, Bill Jennings, should car- ry the dirt we had excavated down to the river and wash it, leaving me to dig in the tunnel. In that way, they thought, we might at least “‘make grub” while searching for the hidden money. I thought the idea foolish; but as they had entered so eagerly into my views regard- ing the buried bag of dust, I made no o jection to the plan, and dug away with redoubled energ; Infact, I hadthought s0 much about the object of our search that 1 had become utterly regardless of almost everything else. 1 had dreamed d on it when ained complete of it while ‘sleeping, mu: waking, and it had obt control of my mind. Day after day wo worked—T digging, my companions wash- ing; yet, strange to say, I did not become discouraged. They said nothing about the bag of gold dust, and I asked them nothing about the result of their washing the excavated dust, We had worked about three weeks, and had formed a tunnel exceeding about fif- teen feet into the hill, when, one after- noon, completely tired out, 1 sat down to rest in the cave. 1 had only intended to sit a little while, but five minutes had not elapsed before I was fast asleep, 1 was ed by a crash, and found my foet s completely covered by a mass of dirt and stones. The front part of the tunnel had fallen in, and T was in a ma ner buried alive. About ten feet of the tunnel remained firm, and, from my ob- servation of its structure prior to the ac- cident, I was conviced that 1 had no rea son to apprehend any danger in that quar- ter. My partners had carried dirt enough to the river to keep them busy there for | the rest of th had nothing to { hope from the The question that first presented itself tomy mind was, how long ean life be | sustained in this confined state! 1 had | read, a dozen times statistics in relation | to the amount of air consumed hour | | by @ human being’s lungs, but like alinost everybody else, had merely wondered at the “time, and then forgot the figures. How much I would have given to recall them! The next thought was, how can I proceed to extricate myself? This stion was difficult of solution, 1f I work with shovel and pick to ¢ vay the dirt that had fallen, it was extremely likely that all which I should bo able to remove would be immediately replaced by that which would fall from above. This was pleasant! 1 racked my brain to devise some means of liberating myself, but without effect. Leaning against the wall in utter despondency, 1} from each end of the line, ‘‘Be that as it may,” said I, *I intend to follow it up.” Bill and Jack conferred together a while and then the former said: ““Well, Ned, we might as well tell you first as last. I wrote that letter in erder to get you to go into tunneling, ““And the ‘blazed’ tree,” said I, “‘how about that? The ‘blaze’ is certainly two years old.” Jack hesitated. ““Why, you see,” said he, ‘‘we found the tree and wrote the letter to suit it.” ‘‘Then what do you think of this?” T asked, showing him the bag I had found in the cave. Jack was nonplussed. On opening the bag we found about $3,000. ACa ever would own up, but always insisted that the variance between the statement in the letter and the amount in the bag was proof enough that the letter and it had no connection with each other. — — THE PONY EXPRESS. How the Mails Were Carried Across the Continent a Few Year ago. Mr. A. B. Miiler, the prime mover, the man who prepared the way and kept it in running order from the Missouri to the Waddel & Co. were among the largest contractors in the United States; their business sometimes amounting to $6,000, 000 annually. Mr. Miller was the **( the youngest member of the firm, and in sure the life of it. Mails re very irregular, the stage lines taking weekly which wi es lost, in fact s extremely fortur ot through. This was conducted at tremendous cost. There was great rivalry botween the stage and ocean lines, the latter strug- gling for contracts for taking the mails from New York by steamer to the Isth- s, across this, and again by steam up the western coast. The mail which d by the northern route through New Mox nd Arizona.

What has become of the riders now is & question. Many of them have fol- lowed the frontier and will stay on its fore until they die. Many are dead already, one, named Murray, recently | died in Salt Lake. From the seripling of the *60's he came te weigh 220 pounds. He made quite areputation as a desperate character. As one who knew him said, “‘He got too big to ride a pony, but had a good build for holding up stages.” One of the most daring of the crowd rode into Salt Lake from eighty miles this side, | through the wildest part of the route. It was a hard task, but the lad was equal to it, doing the work of about four men, He afterward joined the confederate army, and died on a southern ba tle field. This speed was always kept up just as if thero were 860,000 at stake daily. It was the same for months. Then the complications of war turned every thing upside down. The riders went todo bat- tle, the stations were abandoned, contracts went to others, and grass grew over th trail. But soon the stage used it and the telegraph line was not far behind, while those who have rushed across the plains by steam know what followed these ino- vations. These riders were of a clans similar to | the cow-boy of the present day, ready for a fight ora frolic, and entering either with the determination to make the most of it. They were loyal to each other and their friends, There was only one mail lost by them and that happened to be of little value. It was lost in Egan's can- yon, when the rider in charge was at- tacked by Indians, his horse killed. and himself wounded. The company tried toget the government to punish the In- dians for this, but there was another mat- ter for Uncle Sam to uttend to just then. So Miller took seventy-five men, went out and killed a few of the playful sava- ges, and found that they kept out of the way very nicely forever after. The charges for carrying letters were §b per ounce or fraction thereof. This was afterward reduced to half the amount, and then a sort of paper known as “Pony express” was invented, its best point being that it weighed almost nothing. The contents of eight-page paper could be written upon it and sent for §2.50. The income of the concern while run- ning averaged $600 per day. Some very valuable documents were carried, and in every cuse arrived in good order. England was at that time having a little argument with China. Reports from the English squadron in Chinese waters to the home goverment were carried by this route, it being the quickest and safest. One of these official papers weighed so much that the charges upon it were $135. e — The Blue Laws, Since the Sunday clause in the Down- ing high license law is being so rigorous- }f'cnl’uruml, we read and hear a great eal said about the ‘‘old Connecticut blue laws.” It is safe to say that not one in ten of those who li the Dowr law to that celebrated code, have ever seen or read it.
