A GAME OF "PoKER" IN CALIFoRNIA-Ah ieno
just up from New Orleans, where he met severa
persons who had recently returned from California
related to us yesterday very amusing anecdote
which occurred at a card table In the gold region
of that country. It appears that four persons had
seated themselves in the mines to play game Of
poker-the ante, as substitute for money, being a
handful of gold dust. They continued to play some
time without either side winning much. At length
one of the party, who had a good hand, went a
handful better" " | see that and go pint bet
ter" cried out another, who also had strong
hand. 81 see that" responded the first, /" and &c
a quart better" "Wsll, see that, and go you a
gallon better" responded the other. This rather
Disconnected his enemy for moment, as it cover
sized his pile" But confident in the superior
strength of his hand, he collected together all the
gold dust he had left, and putting it aside, cooly
remarked to one of his companions" Here, Jim
watch my pile until go out and dig enough to call
him !"-Cincnnati ChrOn.
