Dear .NitcheH:-The past few days has
been exceedingly dulr In this neighbor
hood, nothing having occurred worthy OF
note, if we except shipwreck, fire and
the discovery of shell out of which had
flown company of counteffeiters.
The fire was caused by the ignition OF
slo0p load Of hay in the harbor, loss
about $4,000. 1t was curious and moi
unpleasing sight to behold the fire com
panies working their machines upon the
wharf, while their hose was led off to the
fire in boats, and as the streams were
poured upon the flames, one could readi:
ly imagine them water spouts, so discon-
nected with the land did they appear, by
traversing beneath the surface of the Bay
The clipper ship Typhoon, in beating
out of the harbor on sunday morning,
struck heavily on Mile Rock, but as i,
was not supposed that any damage was
done she proceeded outside the heads
Upon sounding the pumps, however, it
was discovered that she had five feet of
water in her hold, which compelled the
Captain to return, and she is now hove
down for repair "
A counterfeit coming apparatus has
been discovered and seized in this city
within a few days, but by some inadver-
fancy, the rush was made when there was
no one to be found about the premises.
About $1O,OG9 worth Of fine machinery
dies, &c., are in the hands of the public
without an owner. We learn that the
place has been watched for some three or
more months, by some persons who resi-
ded in the neighborhood, and persons
have been seen making themselves at
home in that locality who are known in
this city as pretty heavy business men.
No doubt there will he quite sensation
here before long, if the proper discretion
is observed. ..t..5 "U.

Gen. Hitchcock.-Thej judcious dis
position of the u. 5. Troops made by Gen.
Hitchcock is highly co 'lmendable. We
noticed a few days ago that he had order
ed detachment Of troops to the assist
ance of the emigrant trains about to enter
the State by the Southern Pass. In our
paper yesterday we noticed the fact that
he had ordered another party to start
from Yreka, on or about the 1st July,
who are to extend protection to those who
arrive by the northern route, by way Of
ME Humboldt or st. Mary's. This is as
it should be, and cannot but give general
atisfaction.-Sun.
