He did not abandon the Dwarves in Mirkwood. He had to help handle the problem of the Necromancer in the south part of Mirkwood. This was necessary because, when he had infiltrated the Necromancer's fortress, Dol Guldur, and found Thorin's father, he had found out that the Necromancer was indeed the Dark Lord Sauron, taking shape again.
Gandalf, along with the rest of the White Council, were afraid that Sauron would take notice of the great Dragon living just to the East of his fortress and form an alliance with Smaug, who was, perhaps, the last of the Dragons with the old fire. And so, while the Dwarves and Bilbo dealt with Smaug, Gandalf and others of the White Council attacked Dol Guldur, only to find that Sauron had fled (presumably back to Mordor, since that is where he is in LOTR).

They were a long-lived and magical race, and this might even be one of those that were alive then, a couple of hundreds of years or more ago." Thorin also says that the men of Dale used to understand their language, and used them as messengers. Later, he proves faithful, and aids in the killing of the dragon.

Who saved Bilbo Thorin and company?
When? They needed a lot of saving at various times in the Hobbit. However, the usual answer is Gandalf. He saved them from the Trolls and later the Goblins. The Eagles saved them from the wargs and goblins and you might make a case that Beorn and the eagles saved most of the company at the Battle of Five Armies.

What is on the mountain that thorin's grandfather gave gandalf?
I'm not sure what you mean. Thorin's grandfather never gave Gandalf a mountain. As far as I know, Thorin's grandfather (Thror) died in Moria without ever meeting Gandalf. Gandalf did meet Thrain, Thorin's father, in the dungeons of the Necromancer and Thrain did give Gandalf a MAP of a mountain. And if your question is what is on the mountain on the map that Thrain, not Thror, gave Gandalf, in my edition of the Hobbit, it's a small picture of a dragon. Some of the spurs of the mountain also look like they're on top of it, but it's just a bird's eye perspective.

Thorin Oakenshield, or Gandalf, depending on your perspective.
