BURGLARY-The dwelling house of
Stanton Buckner Esq. was opened on
Tuesday night and watch and chain
worth two hundred and fifty dollars, and
fifty or sixty dollars in money taken
The articles stolen were in a room ad-
joining the apartment in which the
Judge and wife were sleeping. The
door connecting the two rooms was left
open on retiring 1t was found closed
in the morning, and the front door I'M
fastened which was locked the evening
before and the key left in. The bur-
glars probably effected their entrance
by means of an instrument that turned
the key. On leaving the thieves took
the key with them for other uses
The lock to the door of VIM. Smith S
house in the same vicinity was picked
the same night, but being bolted on the
inside an entrance was not Effected
The bolts were put upon the doors but
the day previous.
Also on the same night and in the
same neighborhood, C. f. Wood Esq
awoke hearing something unusual
Shortly after he heard window to his
dining room showing up. In attempting
to find his pistol noise was made and
the scamps left with no more than they
brought. The key to the front door was
found pushed out and window up in
the morning.

you have this day transferred to us as
the proceeds of the exhibitions. Con-
sidering the inclemency of the weather
on both evenings, the large attendance
on the occasion must have been highly
gratifying to you, and the cordial salts
faction manifested at the pleasing exer-
cises was certainly high compliment
to your exeetions as teacher. In ex-
pressing our sense Of the very creditable
manner in which the scholars under your
charge acquitted themselves we may

THE Ja.y m Bates Case.-The Sac
ramcnto Bee shows up the way the trial
Of Henry Bates was conducted i'll no flat

noisy, empty headed gambler, for dir

in time of need has become an under
strapper III the Sherif's Office. lie was
The man on whom devolved the job OF
picking up jury to try a deposed Off
cial ho had stolen heavy sum from
the State. The jury was splendid one
of co1isr. l.; consisted Of one who has
IA" visible nears of support, three bar
tcAGcls, one keeper of an oyster saloon,
who, it is said, formerly SUPP lied Bates
and other thieves with bivaives aboard
tie brig. rLc fellow formerly in the en-
ploy Of the Pa, ffc Express while Rowe
was boss and all hands in that swindling
concern. Said fellow now drives a
whisky cart, one fellow implicated in
the substitution of State scrip for cash,
who was witness in the impeachment
trials last winter and was singularly OBJ
livious at the time, one man who was on
the grand jury that indicted Bates and
voted against finding bill, and couple
of other men of little better repute.
Such, according to the Bee, were the
peers selected to pass Judgment upon
Henry Bates.

4 RedOubtable OPPonent-There is
one opponent to the Democratic party
whose indomitable opposition in spite Of
numerous defeats challenges our admira-
ton. That man is George d. Prentice,
editor Of the L0uiSUiHe Journal. The
political disasters in which he has been
involved might be supposed to dampen
the energies of the most redoubtable
warrior. But Prentice comes out of
each defeat more vigorous, more spirit
ed, more formidable than ever. Defeat
ed he may be but never subdued, over
thrown but never conquered. He rises
from every reverse, shakes defiance at
his foes, and girds himself for another
fray. Never waiting for an attack, he
charges, like a Murat, on overwhelming
numbers, with a fearlessness and intre-
pidity appalling to his foes. They quail
before his wit which flashes like a keen
scimeter in battle, and have felt to &C
knowledge that in such hands the pen
is indeed mightier thai the sword. We
see him in every political vicissitude
preserving the same undaunted, uncon-
querable spirit. He enters every cam
paign with a soul and a will, and bears
the standard of his party gloriously
through, and when his comrades are
resting from their fatigues and the des-
pair of defeat is settling over them, the
old chief is still seen to fire his murder
Gus artillery that nothing less than a
god can spike, and heard to blow his
clarion blast not note of which defeat
can quiper. Prentice is the hero of pol
itics

Another Tdr.-The Board of Trus-
tees for the city authorized by ordi-
nance, on the 23d inst, tax of one dol
lar on each one hundred dollars of the
assessed valuation of property within
the corporate limits, and poll tax OF
one dollar on every male mhabitant l
years of age and over. The assessed val
ne of property in the city being some
thing over seven hundred thousand dol
lars, and the number of votes cast at the
municipal election full nine hundred, ii
will be seen that the citizens are bound
to shell out over eight thousand dollars
for taxes during the fiscal year ending
in May next. This sum ought to be
sufficient to protect those who pay taxes
from having their dwellings broken into
of nights.

AHempt to Rob a Stage. AS the Fol
som stage was passing down Boston Ra-
vine below Grass Valley on Friday
morning last, the driver observed two
men coming from house whose owner
has hard hame, and follow up the
stage which was ascending hill. Sus-
pecting that all was not right, on arri-
wing at the top, the driver got down and
examined the baggage when he found
the straps cut and baggage ina fair way
to tumble off, The two thieves were
patiently waiting at the bottom of the
hill for the baggage to be deposited for
their benefit. The driver, after tying
up things, made his team "gct up aud
get" out Of that place.
