THE HEADING OF OUR PAPER-was
designed by our talented young friend
MIGHELs. 1t is not designed 10 repre-
sent any particular fuming company
although the view resembles that seen
from Rock Island on looking up the
river. The object was to give general
idea of river mining operations, without
fixing upon any particular locality. We
might have given view of Bidwell, but
since the fire it has not been in condi
ton to make a very good show, and we
concluded the best plan would be to go
at once to the source of our country's
greatness-the bed rock--and exhibit
the nsodus 9psr andi Of liver mining. The
engraving was done by Messrs. Anthony
& Baker San Francisco, in the excellent
style which distinguish the woik OF
those gentlemen. .,s 6re .lt ~

Man DRowsED.-On Monday eve

MAN DRowNED.-On Monday eve
ming last as two Germans were crossing
the river on a foot-log. q short distance
belowlthe ferry, one of them, named
John Lindquest, Tell into the river and
was drowned. His partner had crossed
on the log and turned to caution Lind
quest, when he heard him fall into the
river. He Immediately went to his res
cue, and succeeded by cropping in the
dark, in getting hold of Liadquest's
head, who he thinks was dead when he
first reached him. The current was too
strong for the rescuer to make iheshore
with the body, and he too would have
been drowned, had it not been for the
Eopportune arrival of assistance. The
German was unable to make those who
same to his assistance, understand that
there was s-cond person in the river
and Lindquuest's body was not recov.

VOLUME 2ND.-Accordiug to promise
we commence the second volume. of the
"Rscord" with an enlarged sheet, and
hope TO receive more liberal patronage
for our sheet than has heretofore been
bestowed upon its "seven By nine" pre-
decessor. But the overgrown boy
should not smile at the diminutiye ap-
pearance of his respected father, and in
taking leave of Little Butte" we can
only hope that its enlarged successor. by
containing larger quantity of reading
matter, may meet with corresponding
support. Whether the original propri-
etor started the 'Record" with view
of amassing fortune, we know not /;
but the present proprietor did not en-
gage in its publication with any such
expectations Several years experience
in the printing business was sufficient to
convince us that but few out Of the ma
ny engaged in the publication business
are enabled TO retire with competency
Further than this, for nearly two years
we had been engaged in attempts to
make money, and SO keen was the pas
sion, that, like thousands of others in
California, we were hurried from one
business to another with rapidity per-
fectly antagonstic to financial success.
We became disguised with the idea Of
making money, and embarked in the
publication of the Record, only hop
ing to be able to make il paper such
as northern California would cheerlully
support. We,have taken one step to-
wards making it such paper as We de-
sire to publish al BidweH but there ars
yet other desirable improvements whicl
can only be made by increased patron
age, and which will be added as soon a.
its support will furnish the necessar,
wherewithal to do it. We have desir,
to publish good paper, both in its me
chanical and editorial departments, an,
the faith is strong within US, that tn,
necessary support will be Forthcoming
POGO tempo. We have the materia
for setting up the paperi in much smalle
type, and when enabled to employ TIL
necessary help shall gladly do so. p 5-
