From a long letter iu the Now York Evening Post, wo glean a few facto about Joaquin Miller, the young Californian whose poemu have created eiK'h a sensa tion in tbe literary circled of London. His parents live on tbe Willamette, in Oregon, and are described by tbo poet himself as “dear, pious old people, who nover believed in mo.” Though still on tho sunny sidoof thirty, bo lias seen moro of life, and had more romantic odvon- lures, than one in a thousand of his sen iors. Having run away from his Oregon homo almost in infauey, he is fonnd at tho ago of twelve traversing tho mount ains of Northern California in company with the historic “Mountain Joe," Fre mont's guide. Ho was then notod for nothing iu particular, except his long yellow hair and hi» expertueas with a “six shooter,” which ho used rather freely. Alx>nt this time ho engaged iu a bat tle with tho Indians, and was shot in tho face bv nn arrow, narrowly escaping with liis lire. He was next instrumental iu getting np tho gold cxcitcmout about “The Lost Cabin,” respecting wbicb tho victims are not yet fully convinced as to whother tho roputed mine was a myth or not Miller next turned up as leader of the Indians about Mount Khasto, and whether he was engaged in the Pitt river massacro or not, the settlers believed ho was, and a largo reward was offered for his body, dead or alive. Ho was cap tured with a number of Indians wbilo on their way from tbo settlement. His fel low prisoners were immediately shot, while ho was returned in irons to Hhoata City to await execution, bnt boforo the appointed day arrived a secoud raid of Indians rescued him. Iu the courso of somo of these frouticr encounters ho re ceivod bullet wonnds in his right arm and left teg which crippled him for life. Ho next appears riding a pony express, carrying the mail through a country where no ono else was bold enough to attempt it. Though destitute of tho mereat smattering of “book learning," be relinquished tho express business for tbe more exciting career of an attorney at law. He was subsequently elected judge of tbe district, a position uo is said to have tilled for two or three yearn with eminent succoss. During this period he composed a number of songs which did not find their way iuto print, but soon became very popular with the miners, and are now sung by them all along the Pacific coast. About ono year ago he went to Europe and spent Hevcral mouths in traveling. At the commencement el the late war be was arrested by the French on suspicion and kept iu jail three weeks. He made kia heme in one of the shabbi- eat districts of London, not from parsi don / W attaches a political significance I mony or eccentricy, but because bo con to tho meeting.
