Ihe Pieaynnps./JonrTialPi lieralrla, and Tribunes, to which these men pave their b^s' thonshts and hardest labors, still live, con- dmtpd by yoirnsfprmen; and more prospprons -than in tbe earlier days of their histories.��������� Of the veterans of the New Xorfe pTess, only Thurlow Tweed, Wm. 0 Bryant,"and James Watson Wehb survive, and but one of these <-Mr;Bryant) is now even nominally^ irt editorial- harness. The era of anonymons journalism came in when tbe old men died. Nobody now cares whether the HerahFs expressions of opinion are the expressions of Mr Pott or those of Mr Ketteil *; nor whether the Evening Post's editorial coin mils are written hy Mr Bryant orhy ono of his numerous assistants. Tbe first question of the newspaper reader to-day is : What is the news ? and that journahwhich always gives him the freshest and fullest Intelligence of the events of the world will continue to be his favorite. The editorial writers have lost their, identity^ perhaps.some of the old-fashioned folk who ���������cherish the memories of the " good old days" will say that It is because men have got beyond the control of party leaders. The new order of things is probably better for us than the old; at any rate, our people think it is, ^nd if tlmy are satisfied, the conductors of our public journals will he content with the profit acruing from that state of satisfaction. The interlacing lines of the telegraph on land and sea, the tmdg'me: of vast distances by steam,, the expansion of civilized society, the thousand agencies whicfe bring the ends of the| earth into contact, give us something better to dwell ������tpon than the petty. squabbles* the public horse-^liipDi^s, the duels, the portjr Something about Tketh.���������Why, asks Cbam- 6ersr journal, do some people's teeth come out more readily than others? The reasons for .ihisj aref> probably many: " About the middle of last century Peter Kalm. a Swede, visited ATnerica, and wrote sensibly about what he saw. He observed frequent loss, of teeth amoTijr settlers from Europe, eape-cially womeiv. After diseasing and rejecting many modes of explanation, heattribnted it to hot tea a-nd othpr hot beverages, and came to a general conclusion that ���������' hot feeders lose therr ".teeth more rapidly than cold feeders,^ Mr Catlin. who some years ago had an interesting exhibition of Indian scenery, dresses, &c. noticed that North American Indians have better teeth than the whites. He accounts for the differende'in'this strange way���������that the red*\\nx# the mouth shut, whereas the whites keep it open.; The teeth, he says, re quire moisture to keep the surface in good working order ] when tbe mouth is open, the mucous membrane haft a tendency to dry up the tp.eth loRe their needed supply'of moisture. and thence comes' discoloration, tooth cache, tic,douloureux,; decay^; lo^ehessy]hnd even- ma I joss o f tee th. Mr Cat ll n sc ol d s th e hn m an race generally for being less sensible-than the brn tes in this respect, and tbe, wbire race epp'eci al 1 y 1 h com p arison wi th the red.

Many let- tars are lost from this cause every /year, and inany more would be lost but for the marvel- ovra ingenuity of the trained post office clerks to whom the deciphering of such perplexing addresses is committed. Iti the general post office in London, no less than twenty clerks. it is said, are employed in this duty. As a specimen of their acuteness, we are told of a letter which lately arrived at the office, addressed to a man at **3 pigs, 3 sx." This loolis like a riddle ftfr the puzzle column of a weekly paper. A Budden inspiration came into the mind tf the deciphering clerk. He saw that the figure 3 was a letter E turned the wrong way V and. so the epistle was duly forwarded to its destination at ���������< tipping, Esiex."

The above; provisions are evidently the chief object of the present Act; and though no doubt for the benefit of capitalists, and for the purpose of encouraging them > to invest their trioney in the Province, are equally open to the Free Miner, and he will 1iave the choice in the future of either abiding by the old system or availing himself of the new, -fis he ������may consider to his advantage. There Is no reservation of any particular mining ground from the operation of the new Act, so that all mining ground will be equally open after the coming into operation of tbe Act���������which does not take place until the/Slst day of July next��������� to location and grant under its provisions. The-extent of ground which can be located may seem large, but it Is difficult to see how the main object of the Act���������namely, the in. troductionaf capital in tbe working of the mines���������could have been carried out without such an advantage being given, and there is no need to fear that its extent will lead to any monopoly of the mining land* of the Province, as the Act itself has provided against any such an evil.���������-first, by giving an equal power to the individual miner to locate; secondly, by providing, by section 3, "That "no record of a location shall be made of " land which shall be considered to bo imme- ** diately available for Free Miners as holders '* vi iudividual claims;" thirdly, by provid ing that the record shall not prejudice or take away any rights vested in any Free Miner ; fourth!y, by providing by section 7, that if at the expiration of two years tbe party in^w^ose favor tne^iocatiori has been recorded is, not able to establisfi that be baa e^pen^e4 tf e rS^ qiiimtoanibunt'per acre, the land>so recorded becomes open to pro-em ption or 1 oca tion as waste land of the Crown ; and lastly, by section 11; enacting tb at Grants sball be subject toi all j rights lawfully vested in^any; person at "tfie timeof Lssu In gy an d th at. wh en any lands contained in any recprd of location are lawfully held by any person otber than the locator, no such grant shall be,made. . y.:'. !:*1 These pro visions seem ampl^i to; protect tbp? miner in every way, but an additional clause inserted on the motion of the senior member for this district has made the protection to*tbe r.,yy >y-���������>���������*������������������������������������ y r t %���������"���������;- .*������������������ v ������. i ,-..* ���������������.������������.���������*. = miner against monopoly of the raining lands stronger, in that.it makes it competent for tlie Goverpor in Council, on application of two- thirds of the register ed voters, to wi thd raw from^he onerationjof the Act any rii strict,: so that -'we jieed -riot be greatly In fear of this &wfis\ vrord ^ Mpnopplyl^yyf"y' ���������y ' , 4 Thp- fees; to be charged under the new Act arel ight-^$5; for \ lbcatipn^n d=an! ad ditional sura ofy $4 upon,receiving the;ground..

If my. memory aerves me correctly, about the time your letter appeared in the Alta a poor Welch committed suicide in Oakland. A San Francisco journal, commenting on this said : u It was horrible to think of the depth of despair in which a poor wretched creature was plunged ere he would consent to die in Oakland, but it was only charitable to sup- pose that in this case he was insane, or ik1 would not be found dead with that copy of the Alta in bis hand." Should any one be per- sisteii,t��������� enough to . attempt to u n ravel yonr present remarkable production, I fear the like sad result would, follow, it is therefore to b e h o pe d th at In th e in teres ts o f h u manity you will write no more letters. Writing to the Alta at all was truly a gentlemanly action. You. a sojourner in a strange land, made use of a foreign newspaper hi which to vent your spleen on British law and the British peopfy. It was an act worthy of an eX-Democralio member, of the California Legislature, A Democrat, any way, is a betftft beneath the notice of his Redeemer; but a New York I>eHi0crat (it waa' there, I belief ycu re- : ;9?hp ffftVy mining1 news oflnterest, this Week come;S; from taightn ing, ��������� there h aying^b een r; no p Pin rn it n i catid'n wi th the o tli er p it tside. cree'lcfe fiw'some A^yfl in ;ebuse^ueri:be of .She Ike stoftop weather.'

He felt sure that the proposed alteration of the Mining Laws would draw a mining population from California. The system of taxation at present was vexatious without producing any revenue. The amendment was carried. Mr Todd moved that after acquires in rule (4) the words purchase or pre-emption be inserted. He showed'that it was necessary to protect those who desired to erect machinery, ic, for prospecting. After expending a cei- tain amount, of course they, obtain a Crown grant. Mr Robertson showed that this bill does not repeal the former Act, but merely amends it, and offers them the land in fee simple. Mr Smitbe would like to see a similar principle adopted for pre-empting and purchasing mineral lands as was adopted for farming lands, say $1 per acre, He interpreted the object of this bill was to give the; miners the land in fee simple without purchasing; that is, if they find the land worthless after having expended a large sum of money, the purchase money is waived. The words in u fee simple" were inserted iu lieu of '* by purchase." ' It was moved, in sub-section 1 of section 2, to introduce the words " as near as possible square." It was moved by MrTodd, ia sub-section 4, to insert4' 640 acres," 2 Mr Walkem 'spoke;; against ^e;nwypon.��������� Stout grclbh, which bad been abandp������eJl for aix^arSjtarpbdput,; ationt lye years ago, some of.the "richest mining ground In Ottribpo, Had this land been locked up iiit!heway proposed by this: Bill; He had never bought pf more tha^frprii 10 to 15 acres.2.,. :!^r Todd paid; this would be. arich:^ovintry if wo could induce miners to: talsp in* all the mini ng; lands an d spend $ 10 per acre on 11. 640 acres was not top ranch. v .-,. ��������� y , Mr Httinpbreys conciuted with the member for ; Koptenayi There! wer������ numberless benches on the Fraser which could only be worked this way.;;.', 'Xy /Mr,-Robertson asked what, difference it would make to British Columbia whether the money per acre is spent by a company or an individual? -: Mr Humphreys showed bis experience in mining. He had belonged to a company, and it was computed that $15,000 would be required to bring in. water; Had tbey been able to have secured a grant in' this manner fhey. could have raised the capital and worked, rhe grounds Whereas, with the law as.itstood, they were compelled.to abandon the ground; That was the way this Bill would lock up tbe mining land. y\ Mr, Walkem said 640 acres might answer on the banka of the rivers, but north of Qnesnel- m outh it would never answer. He" therefore moved that south of Quesnel should be tbe limit of the.large grants of C40 acres. This was carried by the casting vote of the chairman, ; ; :- . Mr Robertson moved for 500 acres north of Quesrielmoutb; y A tie vote of 9 ensued, and. the chairman said, after some hesitation, that having voted for the previous, motion he wpnld vote for this.

Carried, ���������. Mr Boptbj)ropo8ed that the further sum of $4 be paid before the certificate be issued. Mr Robertson thought that $11 per acre was eleven times more than the agriculturist paid for land, which, by cultivation, was constantly improving; whereas, in mining, the land was every day becoming poorer by having treasure extracted from Ifc. The amendment was put and carried. Clause 7 as amended passed. Clause 8���������$10 was inserted as the amount that shall.be expended per aere intwo years.

Title | The Cariboo Sentinel |
Publisher | Barkerville, B.C. : George Wallace |
Date Issued | 1873-03-15 |
Description | The Cariboo Sentinel was published in Barkerville, in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia, and ran from June 1865 to October 1875. At the time, Barkerville was home to a fast-growing community of miners who had been attracted to the Cariboo region by the discovery of gold. The Sentinel was published by George Wallace, and its stated objective was not only to disseminate mining intelligence, but also to eradicate official abuse[s] of power, both within the Cariboo region and beyond (vol. 1, no. 1, p. 2). |
