CURIOUS DIsCovERY--The deep dig
gings in the mountains of California are
daily bringing to light interesting and
astonishing facts, which tend to shroud
the early history of this portion of the
continent in the deepest mystery, and
tend to the conviction that it was once
peopled by another race of men highly
advanced in civilization. In the shaft
of j. l.. Duncan & Co., on the ridge be-
tween the Middle and South Yubas, in
this county, at the distance of one
hundred and seventy-six feet below the
surface of the ground, was found, on the
26th of December, curiously fashioned
glass bottle, or jar, which was dug up in
hard cement After removing the red
dish coating, an eighth of an inch thick,
which attached to the outside, and tho
roughly washing it, it was found to be
of light color, and perfectly transpar-
ent. 1t somewhat resembled small,
sized pickle.jar, but has longer neck
and fat bottom. 1t must have been
lying in the silent spot where it was
found for many hundred years.

Snooks, although generally prosy,
sometimes gets eloquent. For instance, {
gazing the other night into the starry.
heavens, 1--WE know it has been cloudy
lately, but the stars rere shining on this
occasion,) and being impressed with the.
magnificent Investigations of astronomy,
he suddenly burst forth as follows
allow splendid are the achievements
and how daring is the ambition of man
Fired by the coruscations of ETHEREAL i
aspirations, he bursts the trammcls of
his mundane vassalage, and scars away
to the home of the sunbeam, to watch,
the revolution of countless myriads of
loftier spheres p After delivering tho.
foregoing, he went into May & Cody's
Saloon, took an excellent whisky punch,
and went to bed.

MASONIC CELEBRATIoN.-On Monday
last the Masonic fraternity of Rough &
Ready celebrated the anniversary of St.
John, the Evangelist, by a public pro-
cession, installation and masonic ad
dress. The l. o. o. F. and Sons of
Temperance were invited guests on the
occasion. The installation ceremony
was performed by t. III. Caswell, Of
Nevada, and the address was delivered
by A. B, Dibble, of Grass Valley.
In the evening grand ball closed
the festivities of the day. The fair sex
whose penchant was to "trip the light
fantastic toe" regarded not the inclem-
ency of the weather, and about eighty
were in attendance. At IL P. NJ, the
party assembled were called from the
labor of the dance to partake of the re-
freshments prepared in luxurious style
by "mine host" L. Walling.
Great credit is due to those who had
the management of the ceremonies on
the occasion. The wholeaffair passed of
with that eclat and order which is char
aeteristic of the fraternity.

BENEFIT OF FRIsBIE & BAIN.-On
Monday evening next, the present
troupe of theatricals will make their last
appearance for the season, on which
occasional complimentary benft will be
given by the whole company-with one
of their best bills-to the proprietors,
Messrs. Frisbie & Rain. We hope that
every lover of the drama in the city aud
neighborhood will be present on that
evening. The sources of rational
amusements in the mountains are scarce,
and every one who has pleasantly
passed an otherwise dull evening by
witnessing the representation of stirring
tragedy or laughing at the sidc-split-
ting farce, is deeply indebted to these
enterprislng gentlemen for the erection
of their commodious and beautiful
theatre. The enterprise, thus far, owing
to rough weather, bad roads and scarcity
ofmoney, has not been profitable. We
trust, therefore, that the theatre going
public will turn out on Monday evening
en- masse, and give them benefit as will
be benefit.

u Welearn'that several new gamb-
ling hells have recently been opened in
Grass Valley, and now we may expect
crime to be on the increase in this co,in-
ty, as long as this detestible business is
allowed to be carried on. Before the
gambling law was passed this place
could not support one, but now it is the
great headquarters of the gambling fra
ternity.

| RESIGNATION OF JUDGE HEYDEN-
FELDT-The Hon. S. Heydenfeldt has
resigned his seat on the Supreme bench
of California, having occupied it for
many years-almost, in fact, since the
infancy of our judicial system. That he
has discharged the duties of his position
well, few, who are competent judges in
the matter will deny. The judges of
BUR Supreme Court have had the most
trying and onerous duties to perform
The rules of law-or rather the Teasox
Of these rules-they have had to apply
TO cases entirely new and anomalous in
their nature, and for which no prece-
dent could be found in the books. 1t has
been fortunate for the people of tho
state, and particularly for those who live
in the mining districts, that our Supreme
bench has been occupied by men who
were not mere technical lawyers, but of
enlarged and liberal views, capable
o1 understanding the peculiar condition
Of the country and administering law.
not as mere system of formalities, but
as the science ofsubstantial justice. The
series of decisions in relation to mining
interests, has met the appreciation of
those who are the best acquainted with
the subject.
Many complaints, we know, have
been made against the Supreme Court
but those have generally been the most
violent in their denunciations, who are
the least qualified to judge of their du-~
ties. If the successor of Judge Heyden-~
feldt will but follow in his footsteps, we
shall be satisfied.
