The piumas Argus,

We are indebted to Mr.. Harris, of the
California Stage Co.. for the last number of
the above sheet. Mr.. W. d. Sawyer seems
to be its editor no longer, the names of
Messrs. McNabb and Lewis alone appearing
at the head of the first column, as editors
and proprietors. The Argus contains several
very funny things in the editorial way, be
sides horribly black rule over the list of
marriages, and very interesting article on
John Kirk and his operations taken from the
Marysville Inquirer also an announcement
that }. X. Loyejoy will lecture before the
order Of Clampsus Vitus. 1t is a more
readable paper, than Sawyer made it.

Oregon Matters.

The following Oregon news is from the
State Journal of Monday:
"Tho Commodore has arrived from Ore.
gou. The convention closed its labors on the
18th September. The question of adoption
or rejection of slavery in the new constitu-
tion is to be submitted in the following man.
ner: Each elector who offers to vote on the
constitution shall be asked by the Judges of
election, "Do you vote for the constitution,
yes or no" and also this question, "Do yon
votefor slavery in Oregon, yes or no ?" and
also this question, "Do you vote for free ne
groes in Oregon.yes or no." And in the poll
books shall be columns headed respectively,
"Constitution, yeo,' "Constitution no,''
Slavery, yes" slavery, no." "Frec ne
groes, yes" "Free negroes, no." and the
names Of the electors shall be entered in the
poll books with their answers to the said
questions under appropriate heads"

Gave ,em the Silp.

Charles Benjamin, horse thief, was ar
rested on Monday and brought by his cap
tors as far toward Oroville as the Rancheria
Ferry,where. he being mounted on the deet-
est horse in the party, and his hands and
feet at perfect liberty, he took the RESPONSE
bility of leaving the gentlemen who had him
in custody, and before they could recover
from their surprise and wonder, he had left
them for more agreeable company. We don't
believe that Alph Mclaughlin would have
been left so unceremoniously, had Mr. Ben
jamin been travelling on such an errand with
him. Mac never gives them chance for
such abrupt departures

WATER AT THoMPsoN's FLAT-Mr. Per
due told us yesterday that the ditch by
which the Thompsons Flat diggings are sup
piled with water. has been partially filled by
the late rains, and considerable work is CO.
iDg on among the miners in and about that
locality, many of whom have lain idle for
some months past, for want of water. So
soon as the rainy season is fairly opened,
Thompson's Flat will be one of the busiest
places in the county.

FATAL ACCIDENT.-The Yreka Union Of
Thurday last. says, Yesterday morning
about 10 o'clock. while J. B. Waine and his
son, young man about twenty-five years of
age, were working under bank of earth at
Loafer Elill," two miles from this city, it
suddenly caved, burying the former. The
son Immediately gave the alarm to the ad-
jacent miners, who repaired to the spot and
dug out the body; but life was extinct. JUS
tice G. w. Pierson held an inquest in the
afternoon, and the jury returned verdict
in accordance with the above facts. The de-
ceased was from Illinois, where he leaves
family, and was about sixty years of age.
