~The fine two story brick building,
opposite our Office, and intended, in the
upper part for a Masonic Hall, and the
lower part for commission house, was
completed, so far as the bricklayers are
concerned, on Thursday last. Our
friend, the builder, Col. Gillespie, is
pushing the interior to a speedy compile
ton, and before two weeks elapse, it
will be ready for the reception of the
Lodge. The lower story is thrown into
one large room, and will make one of the
best store rooms in the county. 1t has
a highly eligible situation in fine busi-

that it is the proprietor'S intention, in

SUCCEEDED.-The News says that
Wheeler, the pedestrian, or, as he is
styled, the " western walker" succeed
ed in accomplishing his great feat OF
walking one hundred a nd one consecutive
hours, without rest. The time of this
extraordinary task expired on Satur-
day night, the Goth inst, at nine o'clock
but, that there might be no dispute or
doubt, he continued walking until ten
minutes past nine, when he ct his plat
form amid the cheers of a large con-
course of visitors. On Friday and Sat-
urday he was at times delirious, and
with difficulty kept in motion his limbs
became much swollen, and the whole ap-
pearance of his person indicated pain
full exhaustion. From his physician,
Doctor Rowell, we learn that there is
not the slightest reason to question the
actual and complete performance of the
feat.

70 The LARGEST LUMP yet found
in the country, was picked up, in Cal
averas county, on W ednesday, Nov. %.
The piece weighs 1901 pounds, of which
about 20 lbs. is quartz. The lump is
valued at $4,000. The company con-
sists of five persons,-four Americans
and one Swiss,-one of whom states
that they have larger lump still; but
they refuse to give names or the locality
from which the gold is taken. 1t was
taken out about Is feet beneath the
surface.
The s. J. Republican says, the
length Of this immense mass is about
fifteen inches, and its width from five
and one-half to six inches. The spec

strong box and was dispatched to New
York by Adams & Co. on the LIST inst.

LYNCH LAw.-On Thursday week,
a man named Joseph Horing was kill
ed, in Mariposa, bya one-eyed gambler,
named Jack Roarke. It appears that
Horing had had some money stolen
from him, and he charged Roarke with
having committed the theft 4; upon which
Roarke shot at and killed him on the
spot. On Sunday, mob gathered a
bout the prison, took Roarke out and
hung him. The Sheriff did all in his
power to prevent the deed, but without
avail. The mob overpowered him, took
the prisoner outside Of the town and
hung him up. Roarke is well known
about Columbia, having been conspic-
uous in little egg-throwing business,
recently, during temperance lecture,
on Main street.

High. browed and wavy- haired and hazel eyed.
Beautiful darling, in whose glances bright
battle my hopes although the sky be dark
With clouds of SANDER and of calumny;
Though ruin shake from off her deep black

The sombre terror of my worst undoing;
though evermore a heart-depression vague
The sadness of the bv-gone re creates,
And from 1t forms presage of the future,
An, still to thee, for many moons beloved,
turn for love ;-and though the search as vet
has proved most useless; though thou wilt

Yet still WOO thee-stiIl thy love impors!

But merely vegetation. Is it strange!
Without the sunlight naught has perfect life
What are thy looks but sunlight unto me!
How well love thee To my thirsting SAYS.
No music of the hirds-no song of nvmphs-~

No whispering of the hope of future fame;

DIsARMING.-The Calaveras Chron-
icle says, that the Sheriff Of Calavera.
county has issued orders to his deputies
to disarm all Mexicans and Chilenos they
may meet on the road or ia camp, Civ
ing the parties receipt for their arms,
and when they bring a certificate from
two or more Americans, that they are
peaeeable men and have some occupa-
ton, the arms are returned. The cause
of this is, the impossibility of getting
any information from those people when
their countrymen commit crime, even
if they witness it-nor can they be
made to testify against each other, no
matter how guilty they may know the
accused to be.

FATAL ACCIDENTAL miner, by
the name of Charles Sprague aged SO
years, from Dover, Maine, was killed,
at Gold Hill, on Thursday afternoon,
by the caving Of bank, in the claim
on which he was at work. The bank
caved in upon him three times the
first time it buried him up to his breast /;
and just as his companions had nearly
extracted him from his perilous posi-
ton, second caving of the bank COW
cred him up and killed him instantly.
His companions again commenced dig
ging him out, when the bank caved in
third time, and entirely covered him.
The body, on being dug out, was found
to be much bruised. The deceased
leaves wife, at home, to mourn his
untimely end.
AS the wet season is again upon us,
1t is exceedingly unsafe for miners to
work in holes or under banks; for the
earth, upon being saturated with mois-
ture, is almost certain to cave or fall in
Accidents Of this character are frequent,
in the mines, and miners cannot use too
much caution in guarding against them.

THE MINES.

OF water, at the present time, the miners
of this vicinity are, Comparatively
speaking, } extracting very little of the
precious metal. Those miners however,
who are fortunate enough to obtain wa
ter, are making good wages, with but
few exceptions. Its probable that the
rain of Thursday will help matters a
little, as, although it did not rain much
in this immediate vicinity, there was,
doubtless a considerable dripping in the
mountsins.
On Columbia Flat, Steele & Co. are
taking out from seven to eight ounces
per day.
Hawkes., Murphy&Co. have commence
ed operations in claim that has been
deserted and considered worthless, and
which they anticipate, from the pros
poets they have obtained, will pay
we'll, when the water increases.
Cronin & Co., adjoining, have aver
aged from $40 to SIG per day to the
man.
On Gold Hill, the miners have been
engaged stalking the auriferous earth,
for washing purposes. B. M. Brainard
& Co., have large pile of earth, which
they estimate will average SO per day,
to the man. Burners claim has aver
aged S. per day, to the man. Dali
rymple, and WORKS & Co.'S claims have
also paid we'll, when they could obtain
water.
At Gold Springs, the miners are en-
gagged in carting their auriferous earth
to the water privileges, and are making
fine wages. The diggings, in and a.
bout this thriving camp always has paid
rich.
Rich DIcG1Ncs have been struck at
Calwell's Ranch, Shaw's Flat. The
claim is called the Northern Mines
Claim, and is owned by Edward La
mountain, Jeptha Pulsipher, Freeman
Pulsipher and VIM. W. PAUL.. In
three days, they took out sixty-six
ounces of gold. Yesterday, out of two
cart-loads of dirt, they washed forty
nine ounces The dirt is immensely
rich, and large fortune will doubtless
reward the labors of the fortunate own
ers.
LARGE LuMp.-We understand that
a lump of gold, weighing % pounds,
was taken out, this week, on building
lot, in the city limits of Sonora. A.
bout IA pounds of the piece is pure
gold, the balance being rock. The
lump is valued at $4,000. We learn
that the former owner of the lot, prose-
cuted the miners for working on the
same, but finally consented to let them
proceed, provided they would give him
an equal share Of the gold they obtain
ed therefrom. This was agreed to;
and consequently the former owner of
the lot comes in possession of an equal
share in the nugget.
