Put Americans on Guard.
BOTTLE Hull, July %, 1855.

Put none but Americans on guard to
night y Such is the sentiment which the
Know Nothings attribute to Washington
surrounded ss he was by foreigners who
served under him. Nashville Union.
The Louisville Journal responds in this
truly eloquent language:
Yes, such is the sentiment which the
Know Nothings attribute to Washington
and such the sentiment which they prove
him to have uttered. Moreover, they show
by an official document which cannot be
questioned, that he not only gave an order
to put none but Americans on guard upor
a particular night but made the order a
standing one-ordered that none but Amer
leans should be put upon guard upon ana
night.
The Nashville paper is correct in Saving
that Washington was surrounded by for
eigners who served under him, and of course
he had an excellent opportunity of Judging
OF them; and the conclusion at which he ar
rived may be known from briet paragraph
of his letter to Governor Morris, dated
White Plains, July 24th, IT'S. a .et
"Baron Steuben, l now find, is also want,

Lafayette, who acts upon very different
principles from those which govern the rest. y
The Sag -Nicht organs want to know il
Washington wasn't ardently in favor of the
greatest possible foreign emigration to the
United States. Let Washington answer
the question for himself. Will not the fol-
lowing passage from his letter of Nov. II,
1894, to Vice President Adams. serve as
an answer?
My opinion with respect to emigration is,
that except of useful mechanics and some
particular description of men and profess
slonS there IS no use of encouragement
Washington, harrassed as he was both as
General and President by foreigners, may
have been somewhat too stern and even
harsh IN his judgment of them, but it is too
bad that his great name should be appealed
to by the Sag-Nicht organs in condenina-
tlon of the policy of the American party
HIS prudent and sagacious order, given in
the days of our country's most deadly perils,
when treason and perfdy tainted the whole
atmosphere around him, is and will contin-
ue to be the banner-cry of the great Amer

Theatrical.

Warren's Hail was full to overfowing
on last Saturday evening, to witness the
performance of Miss julia PELBY and COM
pany. The first piece performed was the
eathercock," and was decidedly the best
of the evening. Besides this it was the best
performed In fact no farce or play has
been produced at that Hall, in the ast;year,
that received such unbounded applause. J
Raising the Wind, in which Jeremy
Didler" is the main character followed
This piece has great merit, but has been 50
often performed that nothing but its own
superior merit, together with excellent per-
formance could make it acceptable. Miss
PELBY and Mr.. McGowEN appeared in both
of the above, and more than equaled the ex-
pectation of the audience, and it is true that
much was expected. The last piece was not
so well liked as either of the others, and we
must differ with Mr. ROGERS who announc-
ed it as most beautiful drama" By the
way "Toodles" was "too drunk" and con-
tinued so too long. The character it is pre-
sumed was intended to produce fun, but as
represented on this occasion, It was calcu-
lated to produce pity for fallen man.
AS delineation of beastly intoxication it
was painfully true; but better calculated for
Maine Law Advocate on the hustings,
than on the stage where the object intended
to be produced is quite different. But as
Jeremy Didler" Mr.. McGowEN is very su-
perior, and as "Trestram Fickle," in the
"Weathercock," he has never had an equal
in this region. Taking the performance al
together, it was very superior, and from ex-
pressions heard on every side they may be
assured of a crowded house on their return.

Tunnelfng north OF the FlAWuAc rOAA
near Bottle IIill-Destruction of Breeds
vile by fire, &c.
BOTTLE Hull, July %, 1855.
Mr.. ED1ToR.-I would like to contribute
some observations that have made. while
travelling on the divide north of the Middle
Fork Of the American River opposite Bot
tie Hill, and vicinity. Peckham Hill is be-
ginning to create considerable excitement
on this divide; there are several tunnels in
this hill. The Burlington has broke thro'
the rim rock, and they get a very good pros
pect, although they are too high-perhaps
they will have to run new tunnel.
The Rough & Ready Tunneling Co. have
also "broke through, and are too high; they
have sunk down about % feet and have a
good prospect, and are going to commence
new tunnel Immediately in company with
the Cumberland Tunneling Co.
There are several other Tunneling Co.'S. at
work on this hill The Union TunneIing
Co. are in about 250 feet and running ahead;
the Opetonia, the Pittsfeld, the Morgan
and the Natchez Tunneling Co.'S. are push
ing their work forward with energy. By
the way, the Natchez Co. have run their
tunnel in between three and four hundred
feet & are expecting to "break through ev-
cry day.
Notwithstanding all the favorable pros
poets of the miners in this vicinity, there
has been a serious fire, which occurred on
Friday last, which destroyed the whole vii
lage of Breedsville, fourishing village
near AmeS' Flat There is considerable
stir among the inhabitants; they have erect
ed rude huts and canvass tents until they
can erect more substantial buildings The
losses were not very great except the loss
sustained by ELIAS BREED, who had store
or trading-post, and lost nearly all his stock
of groceries and provisions.
Times are quietin Bottle Hill at present
We had the Fairy Minstrels here on last
Thursday night and they had full house;
on Friday night the Boston Theatrical
Company, they also had a crowded house
and everything passed off well. To-day
there is great many miners in town; the
town is lively but peaceable.

WHITE AND VARIEGATED MARBLE.-Not
only is our County remarkable for the ex-
tent and richness of its gold deposits, but
its marble formations in different localities.
can hardly be surpassed in the world. Col.
Henderson, whose duties as County Survey
or, calls him to all parts of the county, is in
possession of more facts touching the geo.
logical formation of this portion of the State,
than any other man. He informs us, that
at point on the South Fork of the Amer
lean River, one-fourth of mile below it's
confluence with Rock Greek, is an immense
formation of the most beautiful variegated
marble. And also, that upon the Middle
Fork of the Cosumnes, three-fourths of a
mile northeast from Slug Gulch, is another
marble formation differing from that of the
South Fork, Ringgold, or Marble Valley.
These are all of them, either variegated or
ordinary white, while that of the Cosumnes
is of the most immaculate white. Nothing
but the Sierra's SHOWS that annually fall mn.
on it, can approach its whiteness. Who
can say that California does not possess ev-
cry element of wealth.

The DEMAND FOR CERTIFICATES ON AD-
ANS & Co.-The following, taken from a
late number of the Alta California, may ex-
plain the condition of the house of Adams
& Co. and also what was unaccountable it
seemed at the time-the increased demand
for certificates on the above concern.
"The decision is of course of paramount
Importance If we are correctly informed
the liabilities of the house are not far short
of $2,000,000, which sum is divided among
some 5000 or 10000 creditors OF these,
about two hundred who have attached. will
be paid in full; the balance will receive moth
ing.
On the other hand, there is owing to the
house. from $60O,00O to $8OOOOO, which
can now be ofsetted, or in other words, paid
in certificates of deposit. In consequence,
certificates have advanced to-day from 10
to 1834cts, and are in demand.
We would advise all who hold them and
can sell, to part with them at once. In a
week, that is after the demand for Offset is
supplied, they will probably not be worth
five cents on the dollar"
The Georgetown news., 1855-07-26
The Platform.

On the outside of this number will be
found the platform adopted at the recent
session of the Grand National Council of
the American party. The principles of the
party have been well known heretofore, but
we would cal especial attention to the last
resolution which reads:
"This National Council declares that all
the principles of the Order shall be hencefor-
ward everywhere openly avowed; and that
each member shall be at liberty to make
known the existence of the Order and that
the fact that he himself is a member; and it
recommends that there be no concealment of
the place of meeting of subordinate coun-
cis." ..s o5 1eafr-e4 ~ .ae aIoef
This we believe will add greatly to the
numbers and consequently to the strength of
the new party. Many there were who gave
In their adhesion to what they understood
to be the American principles-but were
opposed to all secrecy with reference to
what were the principles or object of the
new organization. And although the rea-
son urged for that secrecy, that in the in-
fancy of the party it was necessary to self
protection from the old parties, was regard
ed as good heretofore, the reason had not so
much weight since the victories had been
announced of this party in all parts of the
Union. Now the principles and objects
are public, so that the charge OF secrecy
will fall to the ground. Not only this, but
each member "is at liberty to make known
the existence of the Order and that he him.
self is member" and the National Coun-
Gil also recommends that there be no con-
cealment as to the places of meeting of the
subordinate Councils.

BREACH OF THE PEACE.-There was con-
siderable of an excitement at what is known
as the Chill Hotel, in this place, about eIev-
en- o'clock on last Monday night. A knife
was hourished about rather dangerously by
one who had also pistol which was dis
charged accidentally in the hotel. Nobody
hurt. The offending individual was fin
ed sixty dollars and costs, or thirty days
imprisonment.
ANoTHER.-A person who appeared to
be drunk or crazy, or perhaps both, was
making hostile demonstrations on the streets
last Sunday, and at last went into the yard
of private dwelling on Church street, with
club, approached the house and appeared
to be in the act of demolishing the door,
when he was arrested in the act. What
became of him afterwards our informant

FATAL DUEL AT DowNIEvnLE.--We
learn from our exchanges that duel was
fought near the above place, last week be-
tween MIR. I1PINCoTr member of the State
senate and RoBr. TEvIs Esq, which proved
fatal to the latter. 1t originated by COM
munlcation in the Sierra Citizen, of which
Mr.. TEvIs in reply said that the author was
a slanderer and liar. This gave rise to the
challenge, which being accepted, was fol-
lowed by this tragical result. Mr.. TEvIs
was very much respected. His funeral was
the largest ever witnessed in Downieville.
The Georgetown news., 1855-07-26

Eage We have received two communica-
tions on the subject of an editorial in last
weeks paper about the troubles between
Ditch Companies and miners. The object
of the first seems to have been to correct an
erroneous, impression which the writer fear
ed might be taken from the statement, that
the reason that all the water had been shut
off from Rock Canon was on account of a
decision of the Supreme Court, rendered
a few months since. We. willingly correct
the form of the sentence, and say, that from
the information we received, it was infer
red that such was the reason, why portion
of water was not permitted to flow down
the Canon as heretofore.
We proposed however to publish the
communication entire-for our columns are
open to the discussion of any subject of such
interest to the miners-but with the under
standing that we would reply. So the re-
ply was prepared, but after seeing it, our
correspondent preferred that both should be
withdrawn. Still the latter communication
Is of such a character that we preserve it
for future use, should occasion require; and
assure the writer, that as we wrote the first
article merely as matter of news, SO we
expect in all future cases to state any facts
which may be regarded as such, without
special reference to the consequences.
