A FUGITIVE SLAVE CASE IN TExAs.-The Aus

has ressnty been brought before Judge Warous held

Death Of Charles Pru ass.

This gentleman, it is well known. was
connected with the several expeditions o.
Colonel Fremont, in the capacity of sur
yeyor, and shared with him all the dan.
gers and distresses attending the explora-
tion of a new and unbroken country, from
the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific shore.
-Four years ago, we learn, he was SUM-
struck, from the effects of which he suffered
to the day Of his death. Of late, it was
plainly seen by his friends that he was
deranged, and on Thursday last he wan
dered from his friends and home in this
city. The efforts of those who were most
interested in his welfare to discover his
whereabouts, on that day, proved unavail-
ing, but OH Friday they learned the dis
tressing truth that he had terminated his
existence by selfdestruction. He had
sought the neighborhood of Queens
Chapel. where, making rope Of the waist
band of his pantaloons, he tied one end of
it to the branch of tree and fastened the
other around his neck, standing on the
stump near by, it is supposed, for that
purpose. Stepping from it, he terminated
his existence by hanging.
The deceased was by birth Prussian,
and enjoyed high reputation as a man
of science. He leaves wife and children
to mourn his Washington Sentinel.

Sketch from Sierra Valley

WE have in the drawer another sketch
from Sierra Valley, by Alice. 1t is by
far the most elegantly written of the Sc
ries. Strange composition this, to come
from the settlers cabin, hid in nook of
wild valley, where the yell of the savage
is still ringing in the woods, where during
the long winter months the little settle
ment is shut out from the world by snow
drifts, impossible as those ofSt. Bernard.
This is the last sketch from Sierra Valley,
until winter is over, but net the last from
the same gifted pen. Alice has left her
perch among the snowy hills and removed
to the broad valley of the Sacramento,
mindful of the peasants warning to the de-
mented traveller in the Alps,
"Beware of the pine trees withered branch,
Beware of the awful avalanch.r
AT the approach of winter the little
birds, the playful deer and. even the great
strong grizzly bears move away out Of the
dominions of the Storm King. Alice OBJ
served their departure earlier this year
than usual, took warning by their example,
locked up her cabin, and left it to soli-
tude.
But it is not necessary for Alice to be
surrounded by frowning cliffs, lofty noun
tains, and the sombre shades of the pine
woods, to continue the sketches which the
readers of the Citizen have learned to look
for, and to be disappointed when they do
not appear. The sketches will still be
continued at intervals: another next week.

Catching a Bear.

A cinnamon bear was caught in log
trap, near Eureka, few night since, and
the whole town turned out to bring him
in alive. Part of the roof was torn off
and Bruin was "roped," drawn out and
completely wound up, but the crowd too
eager to secure him, drew the ropes too
tight and strangled the poor fellow. They
managed to get him to town where he died
in few minutes from strangulation and
fatigue. Great was the chagrin Of the
crowd when they found out that Bruin
was defunct, and as it always happens
sympathy was with the dead, and the
persons who took the most active part in
the fray, became the victims of innumera.
BILE jokes. 1t was said that after the bear
was tied up with cords strong enough to
secure rhinoceros, that one Individual
stood in front of the moster, weighing
about 200 pounds) with bowie-knife in
each boot leg, pistol in each hand, and
blood in both eyes, ready to charge upon
him as soon as he moved fipper, while
the poor animal could do nothing more
than look daggers at his enemy. Bears
are very numerous round the base of Sugar
Loaf Mountain, and they often make their
appearance near Eureka. attracked by the
ofals from the butcher shops. An old
one, with her two cubs was seen frequent
ly during the last winter, and in one in
stance she hurried miner to his cabin
rather faster than miners travel from incli-
nation. The cubs having finished their
education, went into the beef business on
their own account, one of them made too
great venture and the house shut down
on him.
