The gross receipts Of the evening with
no abatement whatever, will be sent to

Mr.. II. Davis, well known to all our cit

charge this duty. Movements of this
nature have already been made in San

others, have nobly given large sums. =
The occasion is urgent, and our citizens
never backward in liberality-will
readily respond to the call.
On our fourth page will be found a
fuller account Of the calamity at Sacra-
mento. 1t is not merely loss to bu-
siness men which the natural progress of
business will repair, but it is an over
whelming visitation upon families-rich
and poorly which they have been in

even of food and clothing, wandering

lNCENDIARIsM. THE recent fire in
Marysville. following so soon after the
con'lagration of this place, strengthens
us in previously entertaine opinion,
that band of incendiaries have com
menced their work of villainy, and that
they will never desist in it, until they
have been detected and killed on the
spot. or delivered over to Justice fer the
summary disposition contemplated by it's
most stringent enactments. People ev-
cry rywhcre should be watchful. The at
tempts will be renewed, and no security
remains for life er property so long rs
these monsters Of crime are permitted
to run at large The act OF firing n
house, with a reckless disregard Of con-
sequences, is an offence of such charac-
ter rs not to be e1pated by the ordinary
enforcement of law. Capital punish
ment itself, falls far shsrt of meeting
the case ; and, although it would seem
barbarous to make such suggestion, it
really appears as if the same death to
which they would mercilessly cons;gn
ethers, should be held in reserve for
themselves that sfthe brand - Union.

COUNTY JupGE.-We inadvertently
emitted to say in our last, that Hon. +.
w. Roberts, Of Rough & Ready, had
been appointed by Gov. Bigler County
Judge, in the place of T. II. Caswell,
absent. A better appointment could
not have been made. Mr.. Roberts is
well known in the county as an upright
magistrate, good lawyer, and an hon.
est man. We willingly pay this tribute
to political opponent, because We like
to see our judicial Offices worthily filed,
and because we believe it essential 10
the we'll being of society, that the peo-
pie have confidence in officers who de-
serve it.

DAGUERREoTYpEs. If you want

DAGUERREoTYPEs If you want
to be "taken off" in almost no time,
step into Kilbourne's daguerrean room
on Commercial street. Since he has
opened he has had to encounter a reg
ular stampede of bellies and beaux, red
shirts and white, and what is more,
has taken the whole lot Gin a halo OF
glory" to their entire satisfaction. He
has introduced many improvements
the result of his own genius and ex>
perience-into his operations, so that
now he can give beautiful likenesses
in any weather; and though he can't
yet make the pictures speak, he can
make them stand out from the plate as
if in real 6as-reliero. One advantage
of such li'e-like daguerreotypes is that
in case of fire they can just step out
of the frames and walk off. They are
also useful in watching the premises
when the proprietor chances to be alb
sent.

The UNITED STATES BALL.-The Ball

is commodious, running the whole depth
Of the building, including the large ad-
ditions recently made. Numerous invi-
tstions have been issued, and large
and select party will undoubtedly be in
attendance. Our citizens and ladies
should take pride in giving full attend
ance to this Ball, to receive guests that
will be present from abroad.

the excellent comedian, Mr.. Spear
hardly pompously enough, perhaps,
for pedantic old official, but with
much wit and readiness. We suggest,
however, to dfr. Spear, not to stand
between the King and the audience in

exhibited, as half the audience are
thus prevented from seeing the effect
