PROSPECTS OF A PEACE.-Austria has
submitted an ultimatum to France and
England, which they can accept, and sub
stantially have accepted. We cannot state
its precise points, but it is based on the
celebrated Four Points, and inclines to the
Western Interpretation of them. Austria
engages now to present it to Russia. and
stands pledged to the Allies, as a condition
precedent of their assent to it, that, if Rus
sia rejects it then she is to declare war and
make common cause with the Allies.

Potter TrOuDe.

AS will be seen by numerous posters
sticking up about town, this renowned Dra-
matte Troupe is to appear at the George
town Theatre on Friday and Saturday eve
nings next. The bill to be presented on the
first evening is announced, the principal
play being "Ingomar the Barbarian, and
Child of the Wilderness" in the cast of
which the principal character, "Parthenia,' -
is assigned to EsTELLE POTTER, whose
celebrity as an actress is worldwide, and
upon whom our contemporaries in different
parts of the State have lavished so much
unbounded and deserved praise, that we
consider it useless at this time to attempt
to add further encomiums. In addition to
the above play, the evenings entertainment
will conclude with the laughable farce en-
titled, "Dead Shot," with Mr.. Woodard as
Hector Timid." We shall expect to see
crowded houses during this company's stay
in this place, which is announced to be for
two nights only.

F1REMEN's BALL.-We briefly stated last
week that the "Mountaineer Hook & Lad
der Co." of this place contemplated giving
a Ball on the evening the 22d of February
next. By referring to our advertising col
umns it will be seen that such is reduced to
certainty. Their second Annual Ball will
come off at Nevada Hall, on Friday even
ing, February 22d, 1856. Every arrange
ment will be made to make the forthcom-
ing occasion one of festivity and amuse-
ment, and good time generally may be
expected by all ladies and gentlemen who
favor the event with their presence. Good
music has been secured by the Committee
of Arrangements.

RAIN.-Copious showers of rain have
been falling at intervals since Monday night
last, and in the vicinity of this place MI
ners are turning it to good use. A boun-
teous supply of water is what has been long
needed in this section, and we hope the
rains may continue until every miner will
be content to cry "hOld, enough"
There are hundreds of dry gulches on
this and the ridge on which Bottle Hill IS
located, and also in the neighborhood OF
Spanish Flat, Kelsey, and other mining
camps in that region that would pay re-
munerative wages, could the free use of wa
ter be obtained. An abundance of it would
give employment to thousands who are dai-
ly idling away their precious moments
1t would disseminate throughout the entire
State a wholesome and vigorous activity,
replenishing not only the pockets of the
honest and deserving miners, but the cof-
fers of many almost bankrupt business
houses, with that essential requisite, and to
which we are all slaves money.

Fossn.-We were shown last week q
tooth-evidently that of a Mastodon-the
lower portion of which was completely fos-
silized, the upper portion being very much
decayed. 1t was found in West Canon
near this place, some eighteen feet below
the surface, and near the bedrock, by Mr.
I. T. Travis, while engaged in mining. Mr.
Travis informs US that he picked several
particles of gold out of the decayed portion
of the tooth. An ante-deluvian buried in
a golden sepulchre! The mummys of the
pyramids are nowhere!

aS@ Bv reference to our advertising col

Bg~ BY reference to our advertising col
umns it will be seen that Capt. A. D. Rock,
long and favorably known as the Superin-
tendent of the P. & r. c.. Canal, offers his
services in surveying and leveling. The
Captain has recently resigned his duties as
Superintendent, and is prepared to devote
his attention to those who may require his
services. The efficient manner in which he
has hitherto discharged his duties is a suffi-
cient guarantee that his work will be faith
fully and satisfactorily executed.

BALL.-A Ball will be given at the
Mountain Cottage, three miles below Cen
treviIle, on the Sacramento road, by Messrs.
Peacock & Truesdale, on the evening of
Friday, Feb. 22d, 1856, in commemoration
of the birthday of George Washington
We have never attended Balls given at the
Mountain Cottage, but Judging from the
popularity of the proprietors thereof, we
have not the slightest hesitation in COM
mending the occasion of the 22d proximo
to the favorable consideration of those who
"trip the light fantastic toe"

EXAMINATION OF A. A. COHEN.-This
examination, held before Gilbert Grant, the
referee appointed by the Fourth Di8tric.
Court, was still going on, on Thursday
The law has got the complete advantage Of
Cohen at last, and is pumping the truth
out of him without mercy. The examina
tion has succeeded in revealing the fact,
that large amounts of money and as8e8ts
were retained by [. G. Woods, and not de-
livered to Cohen as Receiver; but, for what
purpose retained is not yet explained. Co.
hen says, that Woods informed him, they
were held back for transmission to the
States, to indemnify certain houses there.
He further states, that Woods did transmit
various amounts from California, after the
failure Of Adams & Co. We look with in
terest for the final result Of this examina-

days ago, that "lead" of domestic saus-
ages had been discovered in the suburbs of

ANOTHER STR1KE.-One day last week
the SevaStopol Tunnel Company, Grape
Hill, broke through the bed rock and
struck into the long sought for basin Of
that hill. There was such a rush of water
from the basin for three or four days fol
lowing as to preclude the possibility of as
certaining whether pay had been struck
However, after the water had abated, the
workmen prospected the bed of gravel
they had struck and it was found to Weld
so cents to the pan. The strata which con-
tains gold is two feet in thickness.
