Completion Of the Bitch,

We learn fom Mr. alcecham, the
contractor, the Feather River and Ophir
Water Company, have accepted Of the
Ditch, the main trunk of which is com
pleted according to contract: The wa
ter Is now running into the ditch, and
will soon find its Wy through to Ophir,
Lynchburg and vicinity. Mr. Mech
am has performed his contract with des-
patch, and in admirable manner. Al
though he is too modest to mention the
subject himself, we are pleased to learn
that he has realized saug little sum
on his contract. May he enjoy It until
the mines of California shall fail.

to construct a Toll Bridge across the Main

appointments.

Governor Bigler has appointed our
fellow townsman 2. II Harris, Esq,
Brigadier General of Militia. He has
also appointed our fellow -townsman
George Washington Stanton, Esq, a
Colonel Of the same Bidwell is highly
honored, by being the residence Of two
officers of such high rank.
Some of the Kye Eye papers assert
that our worthy Governor has conferred
his appointments upon defeated candi-
dates, and disappointed phalanxers. In
this instance they are mistaken, for G
Harris is a consistent Wing, and Col.
Stanton is an Americn by birth, and a
kye Eye American by oath. We con-
graduate our military friends On their
promotion, and are prepared to obey
their summons to assist in putting down
all Instructions Of bivalyous animals.

Literary Favors.

Our excellent fri nds, O. Amy & Co.
of Narysyille, we're the first TO furnish
us with bountiful supply of Atlantic
papers and other reading matter, among
which are ''Godey's Lady's Book" the
'New York Tribune 'London Illus
trated News" sc. For their kindness
and attention they viii please accept our
thanks.
Messrs Everts & Co., were promptly
on hand with budget Of Atlantic pa
pers, by the last steamer, and during the
week with San Francisco and State pa
pers. The prompt manner in which
these gentleman despatch their express
and banking business, cannot fail to
justly render them favorites with the
community. Our mining friends have
long required a safe and honest medium
through which to despatch their dust
and procure drafts. We take pleasure
in recommending Messrs. Everts & Co
as worthy Of their confidence.
That we might lack nothing in the
shape of literature, which had arrived
by the Steamer, friend Smith, of the
Bidwoll Bookstore, brought up the re-
serve with bountiiul supply from va
rious portions of the Union We are
absolutely buried to our eyes in litera-
ture, and will endeavor to read our way
out during the coming week. Thanks,

Eigh Reek.

Our friends IA: this place, take ez-
ceptions to our remarks concerning their
troubles, and think that they should have
been accompanied by statement Of the
case, which we now give. They are
substantially as PILLOWS: a portion of
the company becoming dissatisfied with
Mr.. Moore, their foreman, and believing
that the claim was not properly worked,
or if so, that the gold was extracted
and not accounted for to the company,
petitioned the directors 10 remove him,
and appoint some one in his place The
board met and appointed Mr.. Bearce,
ard Mr.. Armstrong, one of the directors
together with the President Of the Co,
proceeded with the authority of the
Board to install Mr. Bearce in the posi>
tion Of foreman. They were met by
the discharged foreman and his party,
AMI we're driven from the claim, Mr.. \.
beisg knocked down and receiving
black eye, and other injuries, and his
pistol taken from him and thrown into
the fume. 4 Dir. Gresn who accompa-
MED him, was called Clutch son of -,
&c, !" and thrown into the pond. The
President, Thomas Alain, Esq, received
severe drubbing, and kicking, and was
thrown ov. the waste-water fune, into
the water Moore's party held possession
IF the claim until the following day at
noon, when the directors succeeded in
obtaining possession. The claim had
been worked for some time under Mr.
Moore, and the company had realized
no hing Mr.. Moore could wsrk the
claim for so hours, aad take o,r. trifc
over 5000. Under the direction Of Mr.
Boarce, the company re lized $l5O0, in
"a hours. and on the day follow ing near
$4,000. The claim had yielded as high
as 100 ozs in "a hours, and the company,
some Of whom had l.borcd there since
80, believed that tley were being de-
frauded, and demanded the removal OF
Moore This statement we have receiy-
ed from amember Of the company who
vorlches for It's cnrrectDpse
We called it a Know-Nothing pow
wow, because at The election the X. Ms.
carried that precinct by large majority
and because We believed especial pains
had been to employ men who would vote
the Kyc Eye Ticket These Brethren
being largely in the majority, we thought
ii somewhat singular that a fight should
occur among men who had been assem-
bled to have matters 60 right at High
Rock. We made some enquiry in order
to ascertain the f4cts, but were unable to
do 50 in full.

LumBER.-The editor of the Nevada
Journal has seen specimen of lumber
taken from tree just fylled and seasoned
thoroughly in twenty four hours, by a
simple process, for which a patent was
issued to Mr.. Buckley, of Michigan, in
June, 1884. The total expense of erect
ing an apparatus which will at trihing
cost extract 1900 pounds of water from
1000 feet of lumber, and render green
boards thoroughly seasoned in twenty
four hours, will not exceed 5000.

JUsTIcEs CoURTs-Judge Danger
field made decision yesterday, to the
effect that the statute providing that in
certain cases, suits commenced in JUS
tices Courts might be certified to the
District Court, Is unconstitutional and in
operative.
His reasoning was based on the ruling
of the Supreme Court in the case of
Zander VS.. Coe, that Justices had no
jurisdiction in any case where the amount
in dispute was over two hundred dollars.
This being the case, and the Constitu-
ton having limited the jurisdiction of
the District Court to sums Of two hun
dred dollars, and over, it followed that
no case commenced before a Justice
could be certified to the District Court

DI$T1NcrIsuED ABRIvALs-We had
the pleasure of visit on TueSlay, from
Captain Murray, who has the contract
for the erection of the Bidwell suspon>
son bridge. The Captain viii leave
for the Atlantic States on the goth in
slant, to procure the necessary wire
for the construction Of the same.
Our DISTINGUISHED artistic friend, Har-
ry Mighels, Esq, is also in town, for the
purpose Of taking few sketches Of the
magnificent mountain scenery surround
ing Bidwell He is at present engaged
in painting the flame of the Feather
River & Ophir Water Company's Ditch,
where it crosses the deep cut, immedi-
ately below Stringtown. The sublime
granduer of the scenery, and the dis
tinguished talents Of the artist, will
make an invaluable picture. May it
make bis fortune.

With this mornings issue the Sun

defeated, and displays Democratic colors
at its masthead We cannot longer re-
main idle when we see the most danger
Gus principles that have ever obscured
our horizon in the ascendant. 1t is the
duty of the Democracy to arise to man
and purge this pest of Know Nothingism
from our borders. A principle is invol-
we'd in the contest compared with which
tariffs and banks sink into insignifcance
the very principle which led to the
Revolution, and the establishment of our
Republic principle in direct violation
of our institutions and contrary to the

TRADiYc IN CHINESE STocK.--Amopg
the various mercantile transactions, says
the Sonora Herald, that are daily occur
ing, the most amusing was one in Colum-
bia short time since. A Chinaman
hired horse of livery stable and when
be returned it had not the wherewith to
SETTLE" but he was possessed of fine
Chinese baby which he offered at sale for
four dollars. \ Dutchman presently who
Was keen for trade, paid the money and
took the baby. He was, however doomed
not TO remain long il possession of his
bargain. The mother Of The child learn
ing Of the transaction, applied to a
magistrate to recover her darling. The
Dutchman showed fair bill of sale, but
was informed that such transactions were
not exactly legal, and that he must de-
liver up the article in dispute. He then
filed a complaint 10 recover his four dol
lars, besides nne dollars for nursing the
little one. But here again he was at
fault, and the poor Dutchman was finally
convinced that for once he had made a
decidedly Improbable investment.

MARrsvlLLE.-The Kye Eyes oil
Marysville, who have succeeded in es-
tablishing theoretically the fact that
Americans should rule America" and
have excluded foreigners from their po-
lice. appear to be in trouble. From a
report Of the proceedings in conneil, it
would appear that "Chinamen rule Ma
rysviile" One witnessed testified that
a "Chinaman had told him that "the
Chinaman arrested would be released,
and nothing done with him. because the
Captain and Marshal had been bribed to
let Chinamen gamble" Hurrah for

kfT0siif,

Just as some weary tired bird

Some quiet spot from danger barred
So is my heart with doubts oppressed;
In whom to trust my future fate,
Ever to be my guiding star,
and through life's storms of grief and hate
None but the kindest smiles to wear
Doubtful which of the two love
Dust two, no more, two angels fair
Upon whose brows the gods have woye
Locks of black and auburn hair.)
In fact l think, to tell the truth,
Unclaimed by each, love them both
