Grass Valley telegraph., 1857-01-31

An APPALLING accident recently took place
at a coal pit called the Byrn Mally, about
two miles from Wrexham, North Wales, which
produced serious loss of life. The accident
was caused by the water of an adjoining
mine, on higher level which had not been
worked for great number of years, breaking
into the Byrn Mally Colliery, and drowning
the miners. At the time of the calamity
there were upwards of two hundred hands
employed, and it is providenttal that all of
them were not destroyed. Owing, however,
to the quickness and cleverness of a boy, the
son of one of the miners, who gave the alarm,
and saved his fathers life by risking his own,
numbers of the men contrived to reach the
eye of the mine, were hauled up, and thus
escaped but others were less fortunate, and
on calling over the muster roll, it was found
that fifteen were missing, all of whom per-
ished below.

RICH QURKTz BoULDER.-A large boulder
of quartz, says the Sacramento Union, has
been found in ravine near Pilot Hill, just
beyond Mormon Island, in Ell Dorado county.
Seventy pounds of the rock were broken
off from the richest portion of the boulder,
and brought to this city. By all who had an
opportunity to examine it. it was pronounced
to be the richest and most beautiful specimen
of quartz ever exhibited in this State, to their
knowledge. The seventy-four pounds, when
melted and assayed, yielded SLIGO! The en-
tire weight of the boulder is estimated by
the finders at from eleven to thirteens hun
dred pounds, and it is thought that the yield
will be over fifteen thousand dollars. Messrs
Dayton & Bunkmier, the owners of the prize.
have been for long while in company with
two others, working the claim with poor
return, and but few days ago bought out
theirNeMo partners by paying them $500 a
piece for their interest in the claim.
Grass Valley telegraph., 1857-01-31

IDA VANARD.-It is stated on good author
ity, by those who ought to know that the
we'll known female, whose name heads this
paragraph, has really repented of her mis-
deeds, reformed her conduct, and now lives
a secluded and strictly virtuous life. She
has become an inmate of respectable pri-
vate family in Sacramento, is a regular at
tendant upon religious services, and gives
abundant evidence of a sincere reformation.
She will soon return to her mother who lives
in New Hampshire, with whom she proposes
to spend the balance of her days in man.
ner that shall redown to her credit. if not to
her happiness. A more truly christian act
than the one which snatched that late degrad-
ed female from the brink of ruin, placed her
once more in the path of virtue, and assured
her that there was yet hope fer her, is rarely
recorded. 1t is conseling reflection that
such deeds Of love and charity are becoming
more frequent than they formerly were. The
Searcher of hearts knows that the sun never
shone upon community where there was
more room for the exercise of such philan-
thropy than in California, and it should be
the earnest prayer of every true philanthrop-
ist and christian, that the prejudices of So
ciety should be so far broken down, as to
make the occurrence of such deeds even more
frequent yet. Why should society scorn to
receive the truly penitent female who has
given abundant proof of her repentance, and
at the same time countenance the presence O.
the other sex when known to be equally gull
ty in the sight of God, without demanding
one solitary act of contrition or one promise
of future rectitude?

it is said there is now penalty attached The bin

A party hunting in Angeline county, Tex
as, found in cave two human bodies entire
ly petrifed dressed in style neither Indian
nor European. A garment which must have
resembled hunting shirt, seemed to have
been worn by each, and partly preserved by
petrifcation, was distinctly visible, especi-
ally at its seams and folds. On the waist oil
one was buckle of pure gold, almost three
inches in diameter, securely imbedded in the
body. The features were not much shrunken
the eyes were partly closed, and even traces
of the eyebrows could be seen plainly.
