ASSAULT OF A. A. CoHEN.-CHAILENGE

ASSAULT OF 4. A. CoHEN.-CHALLENGE
-DEcLNED.-Mr. COHEN the Receiver OF
Adams & Co. is becoming quite notorious.
A few days since we see an account of an
assault upon Mr.. PARK of legal firm in
San Francisco, made by the brother of the
Receiver and on his behalf. Then came
the trial in which the brother was fined
$500; next Mr.. A. A. COHEN is assaulted
by JAMES KING of VIM. Then came a
challenge from Mr.. COHEN to Mr.. KING
which the latter declined, and published the
challenge as well as the reply in the San
Francisco papers. This declining of the
challenge is universally commended by the
press, and it is said that public opinion, even
in California, sustains the latter gentleman
in his refusal to accept challenge
In the meantime the affairs of Adams &
Co. have become so complicated that the
papers below seem to regard them as in
explicable, and despair of following the mat
ter into all the different shapes in which
they have been recently presented. There
is one fact, however, about which there can
be no mistake and that is, that after those
Judgments are paid, which under the de-
cision of the Supreme Court, have preced-
ence, and all the lawyers paid and expenses
of Court, that there will be little or nothing
left to pay those creditors who have not
heretofore obtained Judgments.

Death of Capt. j. C. Folsom.

This well known pioneer of California is
no more. He died near San Francisco
during the past week. He was the claim
ant, and in possession of the celebrated
"Leidsdorf" estate, for which suit had been
commenced on the part of the State. Capt
F. was considered one of the most wealthy
men in the State; supposed to leave an es-
tate of two millions. 1t is said that he has
left will, this is mere rumor however;
and also that he leaves no heirs. The es-
tate is involved to large amount. The
probability of the State recovering the
Leidsdorf estate we regard as more favor
able than heretofore. The funeral of this
noted pioneer was the largest ever witness
ed in San Francisco.

WAGON BLowED UP.-A wagon contain
ing several kegs of gunpowder exploded
last Sunday afternoon at Centerville. One
of the kegs being broken the powder COM
ing in contact with the king bolt, it is sup
posed, which being heated by friction, ig-
nited the powder. The mules run of, but
no damage was done except to the freight
and wagon bed The wreck of the wagon
bed may be seen in the middle of the street
near this office.

s9- Great interest is felt in the ticket
which it is expected will soon be presented
to the people of Ell Dorado county in oppo-
sition to the only ticket now before them.
This interest is greater than it otherwise
would be, from the fact of the great opposi-
tiOn that is felt to the present ticket. We
have said, however, that the success of that
opposition ticket will to some considerable
extent depend upon the material of which it
may be composed. Old party shackles will
to great extent be disregarded, and the
motto will not be; principles not men; but
principles and men. With this kind of a
ticket the people may be assured that Sep
tember next will dawn upon as bright day
as ever rejoiced the hearts of true Americans

asg- The State Journal says that the
Know Nothing State Convention is to as
semble in Sacramento on the first Tuesday
in August. That paper seems to "know
something" which would indicate that in
some sense it is "know nothing" 1t may
seem contradictory, but it is true.
