station in Costa Rica which foreshsdOws the plans
and pelicy Of the Costa Rican Government with
reference 10 the remnant Of flibusterism in Mica

present month 200 additional troops were dis

The last adyices We have here from San Juan
show lhs state of facts. Walker has with hm from
three to four hundred men, at Riyas, which Is the
only point on he Isthmus which he can be said 10

strong force posted Gen. Canas ia constantly

half.starved adherents. Almost nightly they
are aroused by attacks of Canas's sentinel par
ties and are forced to shift their positions.
The provisions of the flhbusters are nearly

bring in supplies are watched for and attacked
by the Costa Ricans bodies of whom are stationed

case over quadfuple their numbers, and in which
the former invariably lose less than half dozen

Sierra Nevada brought in her late voyage the intel

IMPROVEMENTS IN AUBURN.--The industry
and thrift Of people are evidenced in the
permanent and solid Improvements they
make, and in the taste they exhibit in the
ornaments and conveniences they gather
around their homes and places of business.
BY this, the cry of hard times to the con-
trarv, the residents of Auburn must be sound
on the currency question, and are really
prosperous in their business affairs, as the
sound of the hammer and saw are constantly
heard, and buildings continually going up.
Among the number now in course of erec-
ton, the new residence of VIM. McDaniels,
ESQ.,, is the most tasteful and attractive; being
built in the Swiss cottage style, the ever
prominent gables add much to its beauty,
and forcibly remind one of the comfortable
and beautiful homes that have so distingush-
ed the improvement in architectural taste in
the Eastern States of late years.

At special communication of Michigan City
Lodge, No. Al, f. & A. NJ, the committee appoint
ed to draft resolutions expressive of the feelings
of the Lodge upon the untmely demise Of their
wellbeloved brother, A. A. Mason reported the
following preamble and resolutions:
WHEREAS, 1t hath pleased Divine Providence to
remove from among us suddenly our esteemed
and worthy brother. A. A. Mason, who fell vic
tim to mufdeFOus hands on the 18th inst; ind
tShereaS, BY his death the community is deprived
of of its best citizens, the fraternity of one
OF its most reliable membcrs-and who can fathOm
the depth of the afflicton it will prove to his be-
reaved relatives and friends in distant cimes.
But he is gone-and in obedience to Divine dis
pensation, he will receive his reward Let us
hope that his work may pass the Grand Overseefs
square and be placed in that temple above not
made with hands, eternal in the Heavens. Now
that the cold winter of death has passed where
the bright summers morn of the resurrection shall
rse may angels descend to rescue his ransomed
dust; where by his password he may be found
worthy and be admitted to the presence of the
King Of Kings, there to dwell with him in the
bounty of holiness forever and ever.
1--WE meet as met the good,
When first our glorious jewels were enshrned,
Time has not power to break the ties that bind
Our mystic brotherhood.
Since last we met, one friend
who clasped our hands and greeted us in love,
Has Joined the grand triumphant Lodge above,

ResOived, That the death of our beloved brother,
A. A. Mason, we regard as a loss which will be
long and severely felt by his county and the Ma
sonic Fraternity at large. When we assemble in
future, the eye will nstinctively turn to his ac-
Gustomed place; but his manly form sleeps in the
grave, and his immortal part, we trust, is with
him who gave it.
Resolved, That in this severe and distressing
dlspensaton of our Grand Master, we would offer
the relatives and friends of our deceased brother,
would comfort them with the fond assurance that
their loss is bis gain; for he has changed world
where troubles meyer end for one where neither
trouble, pain, sickness or death can come-tor a
mansion in our Heavenly Fathers House.
Res0lved, That as small tribute of respect
TO the memory of so good man as our deceased
brother, A. A. Mason, the members of Michigan
City Lodge, No. Al, wear the usual badge OF
mourning for thirty days, and that the furniture
OF our Lodge be clothed in mourning for the same
period of time.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be
inserted upon the minutes Of this Lodge, and that
copy thereof be forwarded to his bereaved rela-
flves; and also to the editors of the Placer Herald
and Placer Press for publication,
