COrreSnOnGence

Mr.. EDIToR:-It is with pleasure l note
the various improvements going on in Orc
Vile. but in one of them | cannot but ex-
press surprise refer to the building erec-
ted on the north side of Montgomery street,
in Dopnef street. 1t has been occupied
some time as a dwelling house, but is now
converted into & store. From the improve
ments going on around it, one would sup
pose it to be private property instead of a
public street What is the difference be-
tween erecting house in the street at this
end of the town, and the others. There, a
moor hombre had his house removed not
long since, because ''it was in the street.
If the erection Of houses in the streets is al
lowed, there are several desirable localities
let, and the future may be frought with lit
igation If there is proper cause for the
obstruction let those who know it speak and
satisfy those who do not. 1t is question
that interests all of our citizens, and if pos
session is a title against right beyond legal
redress, the balance of the street will be
filled up soon.

THE CHAPMANs.-The closing of the en-
gagement, and departure of this Germany,
is regretted by all the patrons of the drama,
in this vicinity. Circumstances, we regret
to say, over which Mr.. Chapman could have
no control, have rendered the position of
himself and his company, very unpleasant
and annoying in the extreme. The two COM
panies have, in consequence of bad manage
ment and iuexperience of the lesees of the
Metropolitan, sustained considerable pecu-
mary loss. Both Companies possess merit
of no mean order, and might have drawn
crowded houses, but for the unnecessary RI
valry existing between them; consequently
there has been ne concert of action and pie
ces have been literally slaughtered, which
might have been rendered with great effect,
and to the entire satisfaction of our citizens
This has been apparent to tho most casual
observer, and is attributable to the fact, that
some Of those who undertook to cater amuse-
ments for the Oroville public, were over
stocked with impudence, and under par in
brains, common sense ard decency.
Mr.. Chapman has gone to Weaverville
with his company, and we assure our noun
tain friends, that he has the stock with him
to afford them amusement Of high ORDER
His talented lady and daughter, the beauti-
ful Miss J Julia Hudson, and the great favor
ite Miss Kate Grey, who is not excelled in
her line of characters, by any lady in Cali
fornia, are among the number.
We hespeak for them that support and pat
ronage, which their merits demand.

BUCHANAN AND THE PACIFIC RAIL RoAD

BUCHANAN AND THE Pacific RAIL ROAD.
AT a dinner given at the Merchants Ho-
tell in Philadelphia, on the 18th day of July
1853 the occasion being in honor of Presi-
dent Pierce's visit to that city, on his north
ern tour, Mr. Buchanan. in response to the
compliment paid him by the Mayor, said,
(among other remarks:)
"He admitted that Col. Davis, (Secretary
of War; was strict constructionist. He
had never known but one rnin who could
excel his friend from Mississippi in that, land
that was friend of his fIom old Virginia,
in olden times This gentleman was taken
alarmingly i'll, and was AT the point Of death !;
and all that troubled his conscience was,
lest he might be buried in the Congression-
al burying ground at the public expense
He sent for friend, and in prospect of eter
ni,.v said, 81 would nearly as Lief take my
chance of being ID as to entertain the
idea that Congress, without authority from
the Constitu. ion. should appropriate money
to bury me-" Great laughter ] That gen.
tleman was more o. constructionist than
his (Mr. B.s) friend Eevis; for the latter
had got so far as to be Wiling to appropri-
ate the public money to make b railroad to
the Pacific, with which he himself entirely
agreed"
Butte record., 1856-08-16
Theatrical.

A scene occhrred at the Metropolitan,
night before last, that was not laid down on
the programme. 1t was the occasion of Mr.
Hamilton's bere.t, and as the beneficiary
had right to DO. he placed our young friend
Harry Mighels in the box Office for safety.
At about o'clock, when the citizens were
gathering in, all we're struck back, by the
appearance of Constable Patton. who pounc-
ed upon the funds in the hands of the ticket
seller. The seizure was made at the in
stance of Mr.. Hamilton. After few min
utes of deathly silence, Mr. Connor appear
ed before the curtain, and announced in an
audible voice; that Mr. Hamilton had seized
the funds, and although the managers owed
Hamilton Sl27, and tickets to quite num-
Der had been sold, and the holders present
to see the show, he (COnnor) would not play;
no power on earth could make him play
Mr.. Hamilton, then appeared in his own
defense, and said that he had not received
his salary, his landlord wanted his pay ,and
that humbug had been the order of the day
among the management, and he saw she
nanegan going on. he, to save himself had
attached the receipts. He appealed to the
audience to say whether he was not right
The crowd were unanimous in his favor
Then it was interesting. The crowd rushed
on to the stage-one said, give me back my
dollar another said, it was, and had been
splendid ID humbug-another said it
was plan to swindie the public, &C u, and
finally the uproarous Audience retired with
a very large sized disgust. 1t came very
rear row at one time.
1t has, so far, under the present manage
menf, been a succession of disasterous blum
ders-a chapter of accidents in the history
of the 0rovile drama,
Butte record., 1856-08-16

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD Recent devel-
opments, says the Louisville Courier. have
rendered the construction Of a Pacific Rail
road no longer predetermined. The special
committee in Congress will report at an
early day, after business is resumed 10y our
national LEGISLATORS, a bill providing two
roads--ohe TO be constructed by the several
companies nov already chartered, through
Iowa and Miaissota, by union of sail
roads at Fort Kearny, and from that point
single trunk road to the navigable waters
of the Pacific Ocean. That portion of the
Northern route which lies within the State
of California, will be assigned to the San
Francisco and Sacramento Railroad Compa-
ny. The Southern route, through Texas
and by Ell Paso is to be Constructed by the
Pacific and Atlantic Railroad Company Of
California, and their associates, from that
point Eastward through Texas, the road is
apportioned to the several railroads of Texas
already chartered These roads are to run
through Ell Paso to such point on the Eas
tern boundary Of the State as they may Sc
lect The connections with the Mississippi
river are then given to several roads -of
Louisiana and Arkansas as desire to make
them, and to such points on the river as
they may select Such is the substance of
the bill which meets general approval.

An ACT OF NATIONAL COURTESY 1T will
be remembered that the British ship Reso-
lutte, abandoned some two or three years
since in the ice in the North Pacific by the
exploring expedition in search of Sir John
Franklin, was brought into Massachusetts
port some months ago, by the enterprising
captain of whaler, assisted by three or
four of his crew. According to law and Gus
tom the ship belonged to them, but we are
glad to see that joint resolution appropria-
ting $40, 900 for the purchase Of this ship,
passed both Houses ofCougress on Tuesday
with the view of reftting and restoring her
to the British Government. This is a time
ly act Of national courtesy, and will, we
trust, have some influence in removing the
feeling of asperity in England, caused by
the dismissal of Mr. Champion.

DUrc.5 JoHN-Sherif Mclaughlin ar
rested this individual last Saturday, near
Rabbit Creek He gave him into the hands
Of constable Stafford of Forbestown, for safe
keeping, until his return from Gibsonville
where he was bound to seek the hiding place
of some escaped prisoners. The officer acci-
dentally let the fellow make his escape be-
fore he got him to safe quarters. Dutch
John is the man that was up before our
court for minor offences some month since.
but gave leg bail for security before our au-
thorities had an opportunity to settle with
him.

BEwARE.-Mr. Geo. H. Crossete, editor
and proprietor of this paper, has, without
any just cause or provocation, Except that
he liked peaches, left his sanctum- sancto-
rum, with malice prepense, with intent to
commit great slaughter on the vines and fig
trees, peach orchards, aud what-not of Maj
Bidwell at Chico. 1t is presumed from his
late associations, that he was led into this
rash at by certain gentlemen of like tastes
and habitc, whose haunts are within the
sultry precinc.s of small settlement near
the junction of the two rivers--Feather and
Yuba--and called Man vsville- 10 describe
his dimensions minutely would be task too
weighty for rs; in short, he IL SIX feet TWO
inches long, weighs three hundred and ten
speaks when dwelling on the subject o. the
Vigilance Committee, very slow, but sure.
Should he be questioned as to his opinion on
the coming election, he will, in all human
probability, speak Bdchananish. He is good
looking, but his wife is with him fer safety.
Whoever will head him this way, shall re-
ceive a copy of the Butte Record for one
year gratis.
