ANOTHER WEDDING With pleasure we ac-
ton to attend the Wedding Party OF Mr.. Isaac
Desslor and Miss S. Thomas given on Thurs
day evening, the 18th inst, at Jacksonville, in
this county. We had not the pleasure of at
tending, but are informed by those who were
present that nothing could be more in.
teresting than was the marriage ceremony, un-
less indeed it was the Bride herself. The Ball
given by Mr.. Desslor for the occasion was a
brilliant one and did credit to the person who
had the honor of it's supervision.

Observance Of the Sabbath.


We had almost forgotten that any movement
had been made to encourage the observance OF
the Sabbath, SO quietly was it conducted, until
on last Sabbath morning, we passed down Main
st and noticed that all the principal business es
Establishments of the place were snugly closed
up! On enquiry, we were informed that &C
cording to an understanding among the mer-
chants, it was agreed that on last Sabbath, houses
of business would remain closed until one
O'Clock, and that on the following Sunday. Ito
morrow they would remain closed through the
entire day! We have had but little to do with
this movement. but most assuredly were much
gratifed in witnessing the favorable results
That simple act has expressed volumes Of praise
in favor of the merchants of Columbia. They
have had the manlness and courage to act from
a sense of right, rather than be Influenced by
the lurings of mamon; and in this praise-worthy
movement we sincerely hope they will be sus-
tanned by every one who loves the quiet of a
peaceful Sabbath, or the blessings of well
regulated community. How much more desi-
rable is we'll observed Sabbath. to the noisy
boisterous and outlandsh revelry SO common
in our mountain towns? Let him answer who
from his infancy to manhood, was raised under
the healthy instructions OF loved and honor
ed christian mother.
To our intelligent, honest. and hardy miners
we would say, lend your united and efficient
support to our merchants, that they may effec-
tually accomplish the object in which they have
so nobly engaged On you will be thrown the
blame, if the reformation does not succeed with
the charge that you regard "neither the law OF
the prophets!''
We call attention to a correspondence from 8
MINER in another column, while at the same
time we call upon the miners generally to give
us an expression of their feelings on this sub
ject.

MARRIAGE ExrRAoRpINARY.-Last evening,
says the True Californian, ''about eight O'Clock,
a gentleman came into the Police Court Room
and inquired for the Judge. Upon being In
formed that his Honor was not in town. be ask
ed for Justice Of the Peace and was told that
Justice Chamberlain was in the Clerks Office,
adjoining He returned to the door, and beck
oned to a lady outside. who came in. and was
escorted into the presence of the Justice. The
lady was closely vailed. so that we could not
get glimpse of her face. The Clerks office
was cleared of intrnders. and in three minutes
the couple passed out as man and wife. the con-
nubial knot having been firmly fastened. As
to who the parties were. or why they chose this
haaty and unusual manner of getting married
the crowd of gentlemen who witnessed the
strange proceeding could not ascertain, as there
was evidently desire for secrecy.

AMERICAN RATIFICATINN MEETING--A meeting
of the American party is called at Columbia, on
Saturday, one week from to-day, with the object
of endorsing the nomination of their favorite
candidate for the Presidency.
Mr.. Fillmore has many warm friends and adj
mirers in Tuolumne County. and if we are not
previously mistaken there will be an immense
gathering of the X. N. party here on next Sa-
turday, for the purpose of signifying their fl
deity to the principles of their party. as well
as to express their qualification in the accep
lance of the nomination so gratuitously made.

DEAR COLUMBIAN
It may be supposed that rs
an Editor of a paper you feel interested in the
growth and prosperity of our county, and
would therefore, be pleased to chronicle my
thing which bears evidence Of progress or I'm
provement although not confined to the fourishng
town of Columbia. You may have noticed the
improved condition which Springfield has as
sumed within few months past. making it in
appearance. what it is in reality. quite an en-
terprisng and thriving little town. A number
of buildings have been erected this season, and
are now occupied bv families several new
stores have been established and our population
has much increased. There are few mining camps
in this section, which in proportion to their
population, contain as many families rs this,
and consequently in this respect, it may be con-
silered permanent town.
Indeed possess two very important Gle
ments of which we may proudly boast-the In
dies and the Springs These afford us never,
failing supply of pleasure and satisfaction and
are emphatically important items in every we'll
regulated and fourishing community. May
their shadow never be lesa. Esto pcrpeua
Among the improvements which may be no
tced is Messrs Marvin & Pics new store. cup.
piled with an ample stock of goods. for this sec.
tiOn Of California. Messrs. Temple d Sanhorn
have also enlarged and improved their Market
and are offering large supply of everything in
their line of business. DR.. Shurburne Is now
making extensive improvements In the way Of
buildings in our town.
Thus you see our destiny is manifest" and
our motto onward.

equal to the cnterprising age and country in
which he lives. Place him in the sands of Ara

not long remain unknown. From small be-

largest Literary Newspaper Depot in the State.

excavating cut thirty feet wide to extend the

necessary. for the purpose of draining Column

1t must be evident to all the miners interest

C. 4 8. River Water Co.

The directors Of this ditch are now busily en-
gagged in driving their extensive tunnel through
the Dividing Ridge between the South and Main
Fork Of the Stanis;aus river. On the north
side they commenced work on the 18th of June,
and up to the I'd Of July had got into the hill
224 feet. Nine men are employed on this end,
who have contract to drive the tunnel 500
feet to a shaft sunk the depth of l22 feet.
On the south side where the cement is much
harder, they have only worked in l2O feet IN the
same length of time as the above.
The entire tunnel will be fully completed,it is
confidently expected by next season, in time to
receive the copious supplies of the Middle fork
of the Stanislaus river, which in the driest sea-
son of the year is a large and constant stream
furnishing water sufficient almost to food the
entire country. When completed We know of
no private enterprise of the day that will exceed
the C. and S. River Ditch! Large. substantial
and of regular and easy grade it will indeed
be an enterprise of which its originators may
we'll feel proud. Gigantic in conception, Her
culean in execution, and inexhaustible in its
supplies, it may we'll be considered one of the
enterprises of the State. We are informed that
over two hundred men are constantly employed
on the different localities of the extended por-
ton of this ditch 1t may therefore be relied
on that all will be completed at an early day.
