MURDERED BY JvDIANs.-It is our painful
duty to record the murder of Mr. c. II. Per-
son by the Indians, On Friday June %. Mr.,
Person lett here week or to since TO engage
III mining operations on the North Fork, in
company with several friends At the time
Of lis unfortunate DEATH he was returning
from the Mountain House to his claim with
tools and provisions. IN company with an In
dian boy whom he had employed to carry his
provisions to camp, when they were met by Il
party of unfrieadly Indians and we're both
murdered. The boy was apparently Killed
while drinking 1T 4 little stream. The body
of Mr.. Person was found about hundred
yards from that Of the boy, pierced by ten
arrows in the breast and side He was but a
short distance from tue road leading to the
American Valley, ard which lie had evidently
attempted to regain after he had been attack
ed. His body was found on Sunday and bro {
to Bidwell and was buried the following day.
What seems little singular, is the fact that,
while the bodies were deprived of their arms
and their pockets rifed Of their contents their
provisions remained untouched
Mr.. Person had long been a resident of this
place, and was universally respected as an ex-
celleHt citizen, and his untlmely and unfortu-
nate death is mourned by large circle of
friends. We learn that his brothers were ex-
pecting to join him here il the course Of the
ensuing month. But alas, the sustaining hope
of their long journey is never to be realized.
As the tribe to which the perpetrators Of
the murder belong IS known, about thirty
men started from the Mountain House and this
place on Monday, to demand the surrender OF
the culprits A portion of them have since
returned, who report that the Indians who
perpetrated the deed, are known, and cannot
possibly escape.

The lion. john B McCee presiding.
The following anti eiec;i0uisis were unan-
mously appointed delegates to represent the

UNANIMOUSLY rejected by the Convention.
Among other resolutions the following were

Pesolcea, That we, the people Of Plumas
county, are opposed 70 all special Legislation,
by whomsoever recommended o. supported
under which head we enumerate-fiour ia
spection laws--laws Tor the measurement Of
lumber anl merchandise. all and each OF which
are simply = tax upon the consumer, ana only
4 benefit to the recipient OF GubcEatorIai IA
vors.
Resolvea, That we condemn, as anti demo-
cratic, the attempt made by certain political
cliQues Of San Francisco, 10 f0resyall and dis
franchise the people, by forcing on the election
Of [. 5. Senator last winter; and regret that
any Representative Of the Mountain Democra-
cy could be found 50 forgetiul Of the interests
of his constituents, as to vote for and adyocote
such federal policy"
Res0lUeG, That the Democracy of Plnmas
county assert as their right aad insist, that
one u S. Senator, and one Representiye in

quired, to pledge himself in case ot his eiec-
ton, 10 vote for, and use all honorable means
to elect some man identified and acquainted
with the wants and interests Of the mountain
democracy, which has since the Q; organization
of the State, been totally unreprese1ced IN
Senate of the United States. aad we earnestly
call upon the mountain democracy OF the north
ern, and our friends in the southern portion
OF the State, who are willing 70 eoncede to us
our just rights to meet with us on this COM
mon platform, which will ensure the union,
harmony, and triumph OF our principles and
party at the next election.
The county was well represented in Conven-
ton, every precinct sending its delegates.
We viii publish the official proceedings at
length in our next issue.

falling fortunes of tha House of David The
Struggles of the Broderck aspirant for Con-
gressional honors, Mr.. Bryan, |ho has been
untiring in his efforts to secure the delegation
from bis own county, will also be determined
to-day. 1t would be a severe blow to Charley

able to carry his own county. We shall miss

From THE PLAINs.-A gentleman who ar
rived last evening from Diamond Springs, in
forms US that he passed on the Placerville
road party of four or five immigrants, who
had just crossed tie plains. They came thro'
with pack mules, and encountered 70 Difficult
ty, ana met w;:l no important incident on the
road. They viii be in this city to-day From
cur informant's account, We judge this party
10 be the same whose arrival at Placerville
was chroaicled by one cf the Eldorado on Sat
urday last. The first overland immigrants Of
last season arrived in this city Gu The 2d July
aud the pioneers of the previous year on the
4th Of the same month, SO that we may rea-
sonably expect the van Of the overland army
of "a earlier than any which has heretofore
come in since the discovery of gold.-!Sac.

c. II. BRYAN.-Accounts from Yuba state
that Mr.. Bryan is making strenuous efforts to
secure the delegation from that county to the
Congressional Convention. aud that he is con-
ident Of being able todo So They also agree
in stating that there is q staggering iniu-
enee attending his electioneering trips which
shows conclusively that he &c lot s. 0. T so
that his prospects nay be on the rise only as
the ardent goes down, and as such prospects
bring their own defeat, we shall think better
Of the democracy Of Yuba, than to believe
that they will present such man as candi-
date for Congress. The democracy of Cali
fornia are not prepared to send man to
Congress to denounce the National democratic
party as ''doughfaces," ''ied on By a western
political chsrlatan," and they will never do it,
let Mr. Bryan log-roll and liquor as be may.

TALL Gn lIN.-Mr. G. W. Brooks, has pre-
sented us with a stool CT wheat the product Of
one kernel, containing thirtytwo stalks, and
measuring six and half feet in hight. the
heads of this bunch contain from forty
to eighty-fve grains each. Also bunch OF
oats measuring six feet in hight, some stalks
of which contain as high rs three hundred
and ninetyfour grains. His Rancho is stu
atel some two miles from Bidwell, and is sur
rounded with excellent dry diggings. 1t is
several hundred feet higher than this place.
There are yet plenty of chances to secure
locations equally as good as that of Mr.. b
in the foothills skirting the valley, which will
yield cquald equal to the bottom lands Of the
river. which are supplied with good water,
and free from musquitos and ague.

PLUNAs COUNTY CoNvENr1oN.-We have
not received the official proceedings Of the
Plumas County Democratic Convention, and
are unable to lay anything farther before cur
readers than appeared il our extra of Satur-
day last. In consequence we are unable to
publish the ticket for that county as correctly
as we desire, not having the names CT the
candidates in full. As SOON as they can be as
certained, however, We will present them in
correct form.
The resolutions adopted b. the convention
will be found of the right spirit, and like
tire state, so far as heard from, show how
grossly the purchased tools of Brolerick mis-
represented them. The nomination for the
Assembly was rendered their late Represent
ative, the Hon. John B. Magee. and was de-
clined. They could not have endorsed his
course in the last session in more emphatic
manner Mr.. sIagee is delegate to the State
Convention, and with the balance OF the dele
cation, will be found firm and immoyable in
securing to the north her too long neglected
rights.
Mr.. Asa Kinney, their nominee for the AS
sembly, is said to be fine man, and gives uni
yersal satisfaction throughout the county
He is familiar with the daties of y legislator,
having been member of the Iowa legislature
for six or seven years The democracy of
Plumas, seeing the necessity of having as ma
ny northern democrats as possible in the SEN
atorial caucus of the next session, in order
that the candidate for Senator may be chosen
from the north, will be united, energetic unit
ring and successful in securing his election.
With Thomas Cox, Esq, the present District
Attorney, and who is again presented for the
same Office, we have slight acquaintance
and hope to see him re- elected He is sound
and reliable democrat, an excellent lawyer
and good citizen. 'sHere's health to thee
Tom,' and hope that you may be elected
once "Nore''
Anything we might say Of their nominee
for Treasurer, Mr. Wilson S Dean, would be
work supererogation on our part, as he is gen
ereliy known and highly esteemed throughout
the county. lie has long been resident of
Meadow Valley, and his upright and honora-
bic character has secured him the confidence
Of his county. During the severe winters
which the Miners and settlers have heretofore
experienced in the mountains, he has been
untiring, and has perilled life and property
in transporting the necessaries of life over al
most insurmountable SHOWS, In fact, the
claims Of the benevolent Waldo are nothing in
comparison with those of Wis in that line.
The de democracy of Plumas have an excellent
ticket, and will we trust render good report
at the approaching election,
