has some friends left in the "Crater," it is
best to cherish that friendship by friendly in
tercourse.
The theatrical company under the manage
ment of Mr. Potter, performed in this place,
on Friday aud Saturday evenings of last
week. They gave general satisfaction and
taken altogether, it was the best company
that has visited Volcano for a long time
Mr.. Fleming done very wei, much adj
mired by some, while many could see nothing
extraordinary in his acting Miss Carpenter
rendered the characters in which she appear
cd, in manner that would have done credit
to many who make greater pretentions Mr..
Fleming was well sustained by the whole
company; all seemed desirous to please and
were appreciated by those who witnessed
their acting.
On Saturday last, man by the name of
Samuel Chapman had o leg broke by the
caving of a bank while mining on Union fiat.
DIR. Aver of this place and DR., Crawford Of
jackson, were called to attend the case.
Geo. Steele, of Rancheria, who had his leg
broken about three weeks ago, was obliged
to have it amputated; accordingly on Mon
day Drs. Goodin Shoencman and Aver per-
formed the operation, taking it off at the
thigh. Every effort was made to save the
limb but the extent Of the injury and warm
weather combined rendered amputation nee
essary although very feablc, hopes are enter
tertained that the man will recover.
