' I .1 u The (iold Field!* of Georgia. The following, taken from a letter just received in Boston from Dr. M. F. Ste phenion, termer assayer at the United States branch mint, will be read with in terest : The Chcstatec river rises in the Appa lachian mountains of Georgia, in I.ump lcia county, and flows southward through one of the most picturesque and charm ing countries in America, and falls into the Chattahoochee in Hall county, and then sweeps onward to the Gulf of Mexi co. The Chattahoochee is socalled in the Cherokee language, from rubies being found in its sauds. It has become histor ical as being the western base of “Do So to's conquering inarch” through .lie Semi nole, Creek and Cherokee {nations of In dians. All along his .route, from St. Au gustine, in Florida, Valley, arc found numerous relic* of fortifixa tions, his battles anil explorations laer gold the last being hi* cfik-f object. The Chcstatec, as weil as the Chatta hoochee, traverses the gold region for a distance of twenty or thirty miles.' most ly at right angles to the strata or trend of the gold veins ; which necessarily has produced rich and extensive dcoosits in the ercek»aad river beds, as well as [daces on the table lands and hill sides. The Clics fcatce, flora its mouth to the junction with the Tcsentuc strove Dahlonega, is vastly rich, but has not been worked, excepting the shoals, which yieldey laige profits to the operator. Several companies have been heretofore organized to turn the riv er by canals; and one bv a wooden flume for some ten or twenty miles, but the war prevented a successful development ot their plans. Two companies are now en gaged in preparations to work tire river bed—one from Ohio, under the control of Col. Price, who is cutting a canal and tunneling through a ridge so as to bare and make available three miles of gold deposit*. This canal is near its mouth. The other is controlled by J. R. Bartlette, of Boston, who has engrossed nearly ten miles of the river. Both are practical men, and have not only the capital, but the skill and determination of |ptirpose to carry it out to completion. All the workings in years gone by, in the shoal water, yielded from one to ten dollars per square yard, which, if properly worked with energy, as the above parties indicate, will give mil lions annually to the currency of the coun try. The vast mineral wealth of this region, heretofore scarcely known, is beginning to be appreciated. Capital and enterprise from the North and West is coming in, people of the State are excited, and al ready, on every hand, evidence is increas ing of the practicability of gold mining, which bids fair to excel the most flatter ing productions of California. Another company from Ohio, under the suvervision ot Col. Hand, of Cleveland, is preparing to work the extensive placers controlled by the charter of theold “Vahoola Mining Company” around Dahlonega, upon the canals and mills of which the former com pany ex pended nearly half a million dol lars. When the neb and extensive gold field ts put under the hydraulic process the yield will be enormous ; and the same process will expose hundreds of rich veins, which have now no outcrop. Os their success, no practical miner here has any -doubt. The capital necessary to work many of the most favorable sections of the country will be comparatively small, and many veins found without any expense. Jt was thus with the celebrated “ Boly- Fields vein,” which is now being devel oped by Mr. Bartlette, of Boston. This vein is in homblendic gneiss, and when first opened yielded the richest ore ever worked in the world. Its most sin gular characteristic is that it is in the old est formation, and disproves the absurd theory of Lord Murchison, Lyell, Dana find other authors, ,iz: that gold was %\\t TOasijimjton (£<ncttc. brought to the surface only a short period before the appearance ot man on earth We have two other mines Which prove the same, one where the gold is diffused through the oldest granite, in paying quantities for miles, and the other in fold spar, over a hundred miles from any over lying rock containing organic remains, proving this mountain range to lie millions of years older than the Rocky Mountain chain, the Alps, the Andes or Himalaya, where you find vegetable and animal or ganisms from ten thousand to sixteen thou sand feet above the sea, in the over lying rocks on the mountain sides, incontrovert ibly proving that they were elevated above the sea in the tertiary period, whilst the Appalachian chain was upheaved iu the Azoic age. All we need here is capital and enterprise to develop millions, at one half the expense of working the mines oa the Pacific coast, Central and South Amer ica or Australia. Hundreds of rich veins have been worked to the water level and abandoned long since tor want of capital A gentleman in Panola county; Miss., a few nights ago, hearing a noise at his corn-crib, took his shot-gun and crept out in the dark to within a few steps of his horse lot where he saw a man on a rail, which was used as a pry to lift up the corner ot the crib. In the hole thus made two others were sitting pulling out corn leisurely. The old gentleman lifted his gun and fired at the man who was “sitting on the rail," the rail came down as the man fell off, and that let the logs of the house down on the other two men, killing them both. The old gentleman walked up to figd three dead negroes. How Soon can yon Count Two Million* and a Halil There is something wonderful in figures and numbers when carefully considered, startle us by their immensity. We talk of millions aud billions wrthjlittle thought of the sums we name. The lips may utter the words glibly, but the understanding fails to grasp their real significance. Take our own national debt as an illustration Everybody knows it is large, but few have ever stopped to consider its appalling magnitude. A tew calculations w ill not be uninteresting. Let us suppose that the national debt is in round numbers, $2,.T00,000,000. If an experienced cashier wore .to commence counting this at the rate of tlyee silver dollars .second, ami work and i tligetul.v eight hours pet day. three nunihTd in the year.lt would take him about one hundred years tojcomplete the count. It the silver dollars were placed side by side, touching each other, they would reach nearly three times round the world they would pave a highway the width of our Chicago streets more than two hundred miles in length. Fused into on esuitd mass of pure silver they would make a column ten toot square two thousand five hundred feet high; or a bar fifty miles long and one foot square. If each silver dollar be estimated at one ounce in weight, and the money loaded into carts contuing one ton each, and driven one before the other, horse and cart occupying two rods, the procession would extend five hundred miles. Or consider that only about 1,000,0 -0 000 minutes have elapsed since the birth of Christ aad that if one dollar had been put away each minute, day and night, since that event, the accumulation would amount to but litle more than onc-tliiril of the debt this nation now owes. If this calculation were applied to England or France, whose national debt is nearly twice as large as ours, the result would be still more startling. Tbc Sew Seualor from Ma*<*a ebusetts. William fil. Washburne was born in Winchester, Mass, January 30,1820, and graduated at Yale Colege in 1844.
