During the fortnight thre have been three or four days of fierce rain, and the mines ccuitinne to be plentifully suppliocl with wa ter. The Cherokee Flat Diggings have proved to be quite as rich as njportod, and is even said to be the richest ever found in {he state. Three thousand dollar,? wore ta ken out in a few hours, but the shaft, when about 28 feet deep, filled with water so rap idly that the company cannotwork without a steam pump to cany off’ the water.— About 16 acres on the flat have been staked off’ in claims, some o f which are paying cx- cc^edingly well. An c.xcitement similar to tliat of 1840 prevailed. At Iowa Hill a numher of timmds hav(* been made, and the earth lias been found imnsual rich. At Santa Anita, about 18 miles from Los Angeles, digging.? have been o])eni*d. Gold has been known for a long time to exist tliroughout the neigliborhood in small (juan- tities, but the digging.? lately found prom ise to pay.
