 Gold-Erfraordinary.-We have substan- tial foundation for the rumOrs of the last eight or ten days ef the great original deposit Of gold discovered in this county. The ac- count almost exceeds belef,and surpasses any thing of the kind in the history of mining The land on which the gold was found, about l8 or % miles east of this place. was purchas- ed two or three year: ago by Mr: Cation, l from Virginia, for the purpose of mining, who, after spending his time and money for a year or two, relinquished the undertaking as unsuccessful. Lately, however, the work was pursued by others which has eventuated in the discovery of this extraordinary rich de- posit, on the 2d instant. The whole amount of gold ob'ained is variousiy stated to be from 75 to IaO pounds. but from the statement Ofa gentleman who was called upon to make a probable estimate of the weight and value, it is supposed there is at least one hundred pounds of gold. all obtained in one day. The gold was found in a small space, two or three feet below the surface. in grains and masses weigh ing from ounces and pounds. to pieces of Jire, seren and eigkt pounds! There was no vein discovered, or sign of any. but the laborers came suddenly upon the whole mass of gold, dcposited as it were in a nest, and imbedded in very red clay.
