NEw FIRM.-By referring to the advertise
ment, on the fourth page, of the q Jenny Lind
Restaurdnt," Levee Street, Stockton; it will be
seen the business has undergone change in
the firm and thorough rcjuvenescency in the
establishment. The business is now conduct
ed by Mcssrs. John d. Boyle and John II. i'll
more, two as clever gentlemen and efficient
caterers to the public TASTE, as can be found
anywhere. The numerous friends of Mr. John
H. Gilmore in this county, will no doubt re-
member him, and that while at the Lafayette
Hotel, Mokelumne Hill, he was ''au faif in all
that pcrtained to the mrdJilc dictu de cuisine :
and Nose" who is an exemplary expert in
the art and lingo gave him the Diploma. We
hope the two Johns" will continue to keep
the reputation of the Jenny Lind as popular
as ever, and as profitable as in times past

affrighted as they were being driven along the
Stockton road, just below San Andreas, and
In spite of the excrtions of the driver, they
blundered into shaft thirty-eight feet deep.
one of them went to the bottom, whilst the
other hung by the harness, several feet from
the surface. Strange as it may seem, neither
OF them was very badly hurt, although the
shaft Is small-not more than four and one
nan feet in diameter, and quite scragged and
rough, with projecting points of hard cement
and rock

from Mrs. Benz Segar, one of the survivors of
the ill-fated Central 1merica. The assertion
that Capt Herndon and the Engineer ras
drank all the time Of tie storm, is explicit, and
no doubt true. We suggest that the monu-
ment about to be erected to their memory be
crowned with rampant Bacchus, exulting
over the victims of ship-wreck and hcralding
the wanton inhumanity of the inter-oceanc
