Escape of cotun.

This man, who killed young Cole, on the
night of the Sth of January last, in Volcano.
made his escape from the officers at Jackson
last Sunday morning For some time
he has been sick and under the care of the
county physician, Dr. Sharp On the goth
inst. his case was called in the District Court,
and his physician came forward and testified
that he was not in condition to be tried
and that if he was brought into court, he
would have to be carried in on his bed
Under these circumstances, the Judge, very
properly continued his case until the next
term.
Four days previous to this, application was
made to one of the Supervisors for permission
to remove Cottill to the old jail until he re-
covered from his indisposition. The request
was compiled with, and the prisoner accor-
dinghy placed there, with one man to guard
him. Last Sunday morning between the
hours Of three and four O'Clock, and while
his guard was asleep Cottill arose from his
SICK bed, and with his hands tore up the Tot
ten floor of the old Jail, dug hole under the
wall, and made his escape, and up to the
present time he has not been re-taken. There
has been carclessness, on the part of some
one in this affair, that deserves the severest
censure of the people of Amador county
This man committed murder in cold
blood, and sent to an untmely grave young
man who had always been esteemed in this
county Cottill was Immediately arrested
and taken before G. L. Gale, Esq, who, see
ing the feeling that was manifested against
the prisoner. declined hearing the case, and
to save him from the vengeance of the mob,
hurried him off to jackson and had him
placed in Jail, only to see him make his es-
cape, and cheat the gallows of its legal
rights
We give these particulars as they were
detailed TO us by gentleman who was in
jackson at the time Cottill effected his eS-
cape.
p S. Since writing the above we had
conversation with Under Sheriff Perrin, and
he informs ms that the removal of Cottill from
his cell, was contrary to the wishes of Mr..
Durham, Sheriff Of this county, ty,-that gen

County Finances.

The reader Will find in this issue the finan-
cial report of the Board of Supervisors of
Amador county. The statistics are not as
complete as we would like to see them. A
complete erpOse of the financial and business
affairs of the county since its organization
would be relished with a great deal of zest
by the people. They want to know where the
money has come from, and where 1t LAS eoAe
to; they want to know whether the affairs
of the county have been managed judiciously
or injudiciously; they want to know all atout
their oaem business, and they certainly have
that right.
Some Of our jackson neighbors have COM
planned lately-growling Ike bears with
sore headS"-that the county was hoplessly
involved. We have steadily denied the as
sumption, and endeavored to counteract as
far as possible this outrageous attempt to
bring into disrepute the character and credit
of Amador county. We are now rejoced
that we are able to speak by the book, and
point to the figures After paying outstand-
ing warrants, she bad in htr treasury February
10Th, 1856, three Mousamd seren hundred and
tueaty d.iiars and fffy cents. That will do
pretty well for an insolvent county--her debts
paid, and nearly four thousand dollars in the
treasury!

this State, furnishes no parallel to the success
which has everywhere attended the talented
troupe now playing upon our boards. In ev-
cry town visited, they have been generously
received, and new interest has seemed to be
awakened upon every successive appearance.
Mrs. Potter is an established favorite in Cal
ifornia, and has received that endorsement by
the people and approval of the press which
her rare accomplishments and abundant tai
ent so well deserve. She has proved herself
worthy of the praise bestowed upon her, and
the success which has crowned her efforts all
over the State, has been won by genius, cou-
pied with severe study and long experience,
heightened by those ennobling traits of char
acter which adorn true woman as much
when found upon the stage, as in the more
private walks of life.
prevent her being greeted upon her reappear-
ance on Thursday evening by fair house,
and again on last evening an enthusiastic and
large audience approved her efforts to please.
During the two performances she appeared in
characters completely opposite, and her YER
satile talent was fully evinced by the portray
al of the lively widow in the beautiful play of
the Soldiers Daughter, and the cruel Marga-
ret in La Tour DeNesle Excellent in both,
it is difficult to say in which style of acting
she excels, but we hazard nothing in saying,
that, no actress who ever visited our State,
surpasses her in the ease with which she adapts
herself to the manner which the different
characters demand
The troupe accompanying ber, afford cap
ital support, and il is universally remarked
that it is the best company which has ever
visited this section. Mr. Warwick is a schol-
ar as well as actor. His soul is in his profes-
sion, and while in many characters. he ex
cels--in all he evlnces an order of talent
which is fast rendering him one of the most
pleasing actors of the day; he suits any

Miss Demmng, Mr.. Woodard, White, Pillet
and in fact all the members of the troupe en-
act well their parts, and did not the crowded
columns of a weekly paper forbid, we could
bestow much merited praise upon each and

Robbers will be performed, aud we advise all
TO go and see it.
