1900 strong, under the command Of Col Mrolai had

termned to make onslaught during the night Of the

column seems either to have missed the direction by mis-
taking the road or to have come up long after its time

extract of y letter just received from
an intelligent person in the California
gold region:
''The writer has just returned from
the Northern mines, and can assure
you that the ridiculous stories about
the falling off in gold are without the
slightest foundation. They arc only

which must give employment to ten

that works upon all alike in reference
to the foreshadowing Of what is to
come, speaks out in language not to be
mistaken.
People should live now a quiet IN

banislled from the mind, and any

turn aside, as far as it is possible to do

reason that we call on our Good
